The Natufian Human Skeletal Remains From Wadi Hammeh 27 (Jordan), Steve Webb, Phillip C. Edwards

Steve Webb

This report describes skeletal remains from the early Natufian site of Wadi Hammeh 27 in Jordan. At least seven individuals are represented, and although small, the collection is notable for the eclecticism of its mortuary practice. Modes of mortuary disposal and ritual include a single-primary burial, a collective-secondary burial, burnt human cranial fragments disposed in residential contexts, and the ochre staining of bones. The two burials come from the lowest phase of the site, with fragmentary burials and smaller amounts of material issuing from the upper phases. The primary inhumation is marked by a neighbouring pit, which seems to be …

September 11 Attacks And Surviving Same-Sex Partners: Defining Family Through Tragedy, Nancy J. Knauer

Nancy J. Knauer

The September 11 relief efforts present a unique prism through which to view the status of same-sex relationships and to consider which families count when the United States is supposedly at its most generous, most united, and most injured. On a basic human level, would the nation grieve for Peggy Neff, who lost her partner of 18 years when Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon, as it had for the widow of a fire fighter? Would Neff be eligible to file a claim with the multi-billion dollar federal September 11 Victim Compensation Fund, which Congress established to compensate victims and …

The Shield Of Achiles, State, Security And New Wars (El Escudo De Aquiles, Estado, Seguridad Y Nuevas Guerras) Spanish, Fernando Estrada

Fernando Estrada

At this stage of the manifestation of irregular warfare conflicts becomes porous, bottom to top and back. The security of states depends on a weak shield vulnerable to unforeseen terrorist actions. This will not come labeled by a single identity but multiplied their masks, may be a timid bystander who walks the streets at noon sweater dress with a teacher dressed and slow. The security policy imposes severe restrictions on basic freedoms, including perhaps most importantly, individual privacy or family.

Introduction To The Middle East: Syllabus, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

This is a syllabus for Mexican undergraduate students, some of whom had real hurtles with English. In addition to the listed reading, Spanish translations of the Koran (technically the Holy Koran cannot be translated) were distributed so each had a copy. This was referenced during the lectures. Map work was one of the core demands.

Cliometrics Of Freemasonry, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

Attention to the membership statistics of fraternal groups has been given much importance because of the use of such figures by Robert Putnam and others in their contributions to the so-called Bowling Alone debate over the alleged delcine of American associationalism. The subject is much more obtuse and complex than has been appreciated, and this paper touches on what could be the focus of many doctoral theses.

National Differences In Freemasonry: The Gap Between America And Mexico, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

The Columbia book Freemasonry on Both Sides of the Atlantic included a number of papers which are found in Selected Works, suitably -- one hopes -- aged and vetted and amended. This is one on the national differences in Masonic practice, which led me to remark that we should talk not about Freemasonry but about Freemasonries.

The Medallion, Phi Beta Delta, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

The Fall 2002 issue of The Medallion of Phi Beta Delta include several articles about me and by me which throw some light on the activities of Greek honor societies. Phi Beta Kappa, whose national offices are located almost across from the Policy Studies Organization home in Washington, has never been willing to have chapters outside of the United States. That of course is an opportunity for Phi Beta Delta, as it is resolutely international and has managed to start chapters in several countries.

Plagiarism, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

This email exchange speaks for itself. The fact that it was a tenured professor is a sad comment on standards. I thought the double plagiarism, i.e. striping the attributions from quotes that were in the plagiarized text, had a certain originality. The gentleman's subsequent career has fortunately been unfortunate.

No Black Names On The Letterhead? Efficient Discrimination And The South African Legal Profession, Lisa R. Pruitt

Lisa R Pruitt

Although there have long been black lawyers in South Africa, during apartheid only a handful joined the ranks of the country’s large commercial firms. Now, in the post-apartheid period, these firms are keenly aware of a range of economic and political incentives to hire black attorneys, and most are doing so at a record pace. Very few black attorneys, however, are enduring the path to partnership in these firms. Based on more than seventy-five interviews conducted in South Africa in 1999 and 2000, this Article both documents and critically examines the reasons for black attrition. While firms’ incentives to integrate …
