Douglas Wilder Library Virginia Union University Compiled by Suzanne K. Stevenson, Special Collections Librarian Michelle A. Taylor, Technical Services Librarian Library Bibliography Series ©Spring 2002 1 PREFACE Since 1998, Dr. Jon Michael Spencer has donated more than 1,100 books from his personal research library as well as selected journals, microfilm of historic papers and research documentation to the L. Douglas Wilder Library at Virginia Union University. The subject areas reflect his specialties in the history and theology of African-American sacred and secular music, African history and slave culture, and African-American history and sociology. The collection includes a significant number of hymnals from various denominations. The former University of Richmond music and American studies professor is now a professor of religious studies at the University of South Carolina. He earned a music degree from Hampton University and completed graduate work in music composition as well as theology at Washington University and Duke Divinity School. Spencer donated this extensive collection to VUU for several reasons. Until the summer 2000, he was a resident of Richmond and VUU was the city’s African American university. As well, VUU has a School of Theology and Spencer has published extensively in the area of religion. Finally, his architect father, John H. Spencer, participated in the design of the Wilder library. It is in the elder Spencer’s name that Dr. Spencer has donated his collections. The books are housed in the library’s closed collections.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronicmechanical, photocopying, recording, or otherwise, without the permission in writing from the proprietor(s). 3 PREFACE Europe is a patchwork quilt, a diversity of national and regional cultures. But Europe is also a common cultural heritage. And it is a culture in the making. The creation of the European Union would not have been possible without this common heritage and the endeavour to have a common future. Paradoxically, Europe’s specificity, its common heritage, is threatened by one of its major exponents, the ideology of modernity and modernisation. So a very important task Europe is confronted with is to be at the same time both modernising and preserving its specificity and variety. This task is the more arduous because we have, in order to fulfil it adequately, to shrug off outdated interpretations of modernity and modernisation, and to look at tensions and conflicts which are inherent to ongoing modernisation, like the increasing opposition between individual freedom and system-rationality. In front of ongoing modernisation and the supremacy of the ideology of modernisation or globalisation, it certainly will not be a revival of nationalism that will lead us to the Promised Land.

  • An Appraisal of the 2004 National Policy on Population for Sustainable Development
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 5 No 23 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy November 2014 An Appraisal of the 2004 National Policy on Population for Sustainable Development DR. A.D. Shofoyeke National Institute for Educational Planning and Administration, (N.I.E.P.A, Nigeria), Ondo Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2014.v5n23p2520 Abstract This paper sought to appraise the extent to which the2004 population policy objectives and targets have been achieved ten years after its enunciation. Secondary data obtained from Central Intelligence Agency World Factbook (2013) and United Nations Statistics (2013), UNESCO (2011), UNICEF and other relevant literatures were used to compare the population targets with a view to determine their achievement and prospect of achieving the objectives. The study found that population growth rate reduced from 2.9% in 2004 to 2.5% in 2008 and 1.999% in 2009 but later rose to2.55% in 2012. Apart from the reduction being contestable, population analysts argued that inflation and harsh economic conditions are responsible and not strictly government conscious efforts which resulted in oscillating growth. Target of fertility reduction is far from being achieved as evidenced by the increase in the rate which increased from 5.2 in 2004 to 5.5 in 2013 instead of reducing to 4.0. Infant morbidity and mortality still remains high at 72.97 deaths /1000 live births in 2013 which raises doubt of achieving target of 45 per 1,000 in 2015 as a result of childhood diseases such as malaria, diarrhea, and malnourishment.

  • Interwar Blueprints of Europe: Emotions, Experience and Expectation
    Politics and Governance (ISSN: 2183–2463) 2018, Volume 6, Issue 4, Pages 135–143 DOI: 10.17645/pag.v6i4.1522 Article Interwar Blueprints of Europe: Emotions, Experience and Expectation Trineke Palm Department of History and Art History, Utrecht University, 3512 BS Utrecht, The Netherlands; E-Mail: [email protected] Submitted: 3 April 2018 | Accepted: 21 August 2018 | Published: 28 December 2018 Abstract The notion of European integration has been contested from its very start. In the interwar period many ideas were floating around on how to shape European unity. These interwar Blueprints for Europe have to be understood in the context of conflicting and contradictory emotions of enmity and amity. This article looks at the emotive vocabulary of the canonical text of Coudenhove-Kalergi’s Pan-Europa. It applies an emotion discourse analysis, using Koselleck’s notion of “space of experience” and “horizon of expectation”. As such it shows the connection between the understanding and use of time and emotions in discourse—thereby demonstrating the necessity of “reading” the blueprints of European integration as highly normative and moral claims on the design of this European order. Keywords discourse; Coudenhove-Kalergi; European integration; emotion; interwar; pan-Europa Issue This article is part of the issue “Interdisciplinary Approaches to Studying Emotions within Politics and International Rela- tions”, edited by Alex Prior (University of Leeds, UK) and Yuri van Hoef (Utrecht University, The Netherlands). © 2018 by the author; licensee Cogitatio (Lisbon, Portugal).

  • European Economy in Chaos Intensified by Debt Crisis (PDF
    Section 2 European economy in chaos intensified by debt crisis The European economy had been recovering modestly from a slump triggered by the global economic crisis in 2008, but business sentiment plunged reflecting the emergence of the European debt crisis and demand declined mainly due to tight fiscal policy of the governments of many countries to achieve fiscal soundness, resulting in an evident slowdown in the economy. In contrast, in Germany the economy has been relatively steady compared with other major countries; for example, there have been signs of recovery in some economic indicators. In this section, the current status of the European economy, which has recently been polarized as pointed out above, will be reviewed and its background will be examined. In addition, the intensification of chaotic trends in the European debt crisis and future challenges that the European economy is going to confront will be organized. 1. Overview (The European economy facing a business downturn) First, recent economic trends will be studied with a focus on major euro area economies hit by the European debt crisis. (1) GDP The seasonally adjusted real GDP growth rate in the 4th quarter of 2011 in the euro area recorded −0.3% quarter-on-quarter, falling to the first negative quarter-on-quarter growth in ten quarters since the 2nd quarter of 2009. By category of demand, each item of domestic demand, which are personal consumption (−0.4%), government consumption (−0.2%), and facility investment (−0.7%), decreased quarter-on-quarter, showing the seriousness of the decrease in domestic demand in the euro area (Figure 1-2-1-1).
