YOSHINOBU HAKUTANI reveals the similarities and differences between Zen Buddhism and American Transcendentalism, particularly in the writings of Emerson and Whitman, a view which illuminates much in their philosophy and also helps us understand where the two American authors diverged. Professor of English at Kent State University, Hakutani has published books on Theodore Japanese fiction, Thedore Dreiser, Richard Wright, Yone Noguchi, and many articles on similar topics.

Moby-Dick, though securely rooted in its own time, prefigures twentieth-century totalitarianism’s epitome, Nazi Germany, in the opinion of CHRISTOPHER S. DURER. Professor of English at the University of …

The Repertory Of Social Care Of The Elderly, Roger A. Lohmann

Faculty & Staff Scholarship

This paper is an analysis of aspects of the emergence of a repertory of social care services for the elderly from the vantage point of the common theory of voluntary action. One facet of that theory, labeled here as endowment theory, is an emerging rational choice model of the praxeological implications of voluntary action within the pragmatic problem-solving tradition. Three terms – endowment, repertory and commons – are presented in the paper as terms whose conventional meanings contain previously undisclosed connotations relevant to a fuller understanding of voluntary action.

Job Search Outcomes For The Employed And Unemployed, David M. Blau, Philip K. Robins

Economics Articles and Papers



This paper examines how four components of the job search process--the choice of search methods, the choice of how many firms to contact, the rate at which offers are received, and the acceptance or rejection of an offer--influence the job-finding rate. A reduced-form model of job search is estimated that takes account of the fact that users of a particular method of job search are not a random subset of all searchers. The empirical analysis focuses on differences in search behavior between the employed and unemployed. A key finding of the analysis is that the offer rate per contact …

A Comparison Of The Effectiveness Of Civilian Conservation Centers And Contract Centers From 1984 To 1988, Robert P. Slaughter

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the continuous instability of policy decisions relating to the effectiveness of Civilian Conservation Centers and Contract Centers was a result of measurable differences in performance between the two models. Six hypotheses tested differences between types of centers on six quantitative variables which were: average length of stay, job placement, hourly starting wages, educational gains in reading, math, and General Educational Development (GED). To investigate the problem, 30 Civilian Conservation Centers and 17 comparably sized Contract Centers were selected. Reports from the Department of Labor's Automated Management System provided data for comparison …

MICHAEL C. C. ADAMS examines anti-war literature and finds much of it glorifies the experience, despite its realism and criticism of those far from the theater of combat. Professor of History at Northern Kentucky University, Adams's book, Our Masters the Rebels: A Speculation on Union Military Failure in the East, 1861-1865, will this year be joined by The Great Adventure: Male Desire and the Coming of World War One.

Finding the 1988 presidential campaign short on substance and the electorate insufficiently familiar with the concept, ROBERT W. SELLEN explores national interest historically and suggests the …
