  • Rules for the Heavens: the Coming Revolution in Space and the Laws of War
    RULES FOR THE HEAVENS: THE COMING REVOLUTION IN SPACE AND THE LAWS OF WAR John Yoo* Great powers are increasing their competition in space. Though Russia and the United States have long relied on satellites for surveillance of rival nations’ militaries and the detection of missile launches, the democratization of space through technological advancements has allowed other nations to assert greater control. This Article addresses whether the United States and other nations should develop the space-based weapons that these policies promise, or whether they should cooperate to develop new international agreements to ban them. In some areas of space, proposals for regulation have already come too late. The U.S.’s nuclear deterrent itself depends cru- cially on space: ballistic missiles leave and then re-enter the atmosphere, giving them a global reach without serious defense. As more nations develop nuclear weapons and intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) technology, outer space will become even more important as an arena for defense against weapons of mass destruction (WMD) proliferation. North Korea’s progress on ICBM and nuclear technology, for example, will prompt even greater in- vestment in space-based missile defense systems. This Article makes two contributions. First, it argues against a grow- ing academic consensus in favor of a prohibition on military activities in space. It argues that these scholars over-read existing legal instruments and practice. While nations crafted international agreements to bar WMDs in outer space, they carefully left unregulated reconnaissance and commu- nications satellites, space-based conventional weapons, antisatellite sys- tems, and even WMDs that transit through space, such as ballistic missiles.

I saw the aftermath of the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X and I couldn’t understand why people who looked like me had been treated in this manner. Then the 1970’s arrived and brought an explosion of color to Saturday Morning cartoons. As a pre-teen, I could see positive Black characters that looked like me and real people that I admired, like the Jackson Five and The Harlem Globetrotters. I was glued to the television. I couldn’t wait to see these animated characters fill the small screen. These cartoons changed my life...filling me with pride and self esteem. They brought adventure, mayhem and fun to a generation of Black children. Forty years later, my perspective on these cartoons is a little different. Besides being an integral part of Black children’s lives, these cartoons also benefited white children and the broader society as a whole. A number of these cartoons addressed issues like cultural differences, racism and multiculturalism.

    “WHAT’S A HEAVEN FOR?” NATIONAL PUBLIC CULTURE’S ROLE IN SHAPING US SPACE POLICY, AEROSPACE DOCTRINE, AND THE FUTURE OF THE DYNA-SOAR, 1957-61 By © 2011 Nicholas Michael Sambaluk, MA BA, History, Texas Christian University, 2006 MA, History, University of North Texas, 2008 Dissertation Prepared for the fulfillment of the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy in History The University of Kansas APPROVED ________________________ Dr Adrian Lewis ________________________ Dr Theodore Wilson ________________________ Dr Sheyda Jahanbani ________________________ Dr Jeffrey Moran ________________________ Dr Thomas Heilke Date Defended: March 28, 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Nicholas Michael Sambaluk certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: “WHAT’S A HEAVEN FOR?” NATIONAL PUBLIC CULTURE’S ROLE IN SHAPING US SPACE POLICY, AEROSPACE DOCTRINE, AND THE FUTURE OF THE DYNA-SOAR, 1957-61 _____________________ Dr Adrian Lewis (Chair) Date approved: March 28, 2012 ii ABSTRACT While cultural tenets exert strong impact on defense policy and doctrine, these ideas are crucially distilled and adjusted by people and institutions, and other opinion seek to influence the minds and actions of these bodies. Culture can be seen as the aggregate attitudes, practices, and values of a particular group of people. These, and perceived circumstances, determine the tenets or ideas which will resonate with a society. Culture is both learned and taught, so it adapts and is continuously contested. Dwight Eisenhower’s employment of airpower and nuclear weapon technology complemented dominant tenets in US culture up to Sputnik. But Soviet space accomplishments prompted elites amongst the media and the Air Force to promote the idea of “aerospace” as a continuous realm to be explored and protected through technological advance and armed Air Force presence, and the Eisenhower Administration struggled for the remainder of his administration to control space policy and the contours of the culturally induced faith in technology.

  • The Jackson 5Ive Cartoon As Comodified Civil Rights & Black
    “I’m a Cartoon!” The Jackson 5ive Cartoon as Comodified Civil Rights & Black Power Ideologies, 1971-1973 by Richard M. Breaux Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies and History Colorado State University, Fort Collins Richard M. Breaux ([email protected]) is an Assistant Professor of Ethnic Studies and History at Colorado State University. He specializes in African American Cultural History, African American Women’s History, History of African American Education, and Race in the Media. His articles have appeared in The Great Plains Quarterly, the Annals of Iowa, the History of Education Quarterly, and the Journal of African American History. Abstract With the December 2009 release of Disney’s The Princess and the Frog and the continued airing of the animated series The Boondocks (November 6, 2005-Present) and Little Bill (November 28, 1999-July 2, 2007), television viewers and movie goers seem to forget that just over forty year ago, it was rarely if ever a time when non-stereotypical, minstrel-type caricatures did not represent the only images of African Americans in animated film or television. The Jackson 5ive animated series (September 11, 1971 – September 1, 1973) became only the second animated television series starring more than one non-stereotypical African American character to air on a major television network, and was one of the longest running cartoons with non-stereotypical African Americans as title characters excluding Fat Albert & the Cosby Kids (September 9, 1973 – August 29, 1984) until 1999. In many ways, the Jackson 5ive animated series was to cartoons, what Michael Jackson was to MTV (Music Television).
