REQUEST FOR SABBATICAL LEAVE. I am requesting a 100% sabbatical leave for the 2019-2020 academic year. Employed as a fulltime faculty member at Cerritos College since August 2005, I have never requested sabbatical leave during the past thirteen years of service. II. PURPOSE OF LEAVE Scientific advancements and technological capabilities, most notably within the last few decades, have evolved at ever-accelerating rates. Artists, like everyone else, now live in a contemporary world completely restructured by recent phenomena such as satellite imagery, augmented reality, digital surveillance, mass extinctions, artificial intelligence, prosthetic limbs, climate change, big data, genetic modification, drone warfare, biometrics, computer viruses, and social media (and that’s by no means meant to be an all-inclusive list).

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by The University of Utah: J. Willard Marriott Digital Library THE OTHER POLITICAL PROBLEM: MONTAGNARD NATIONALISM AND THE EFFECTS ON THE VIETNAM WAR by Ammon Patrick Magnusson A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Utah in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of History The University of Utah December 2014 Copyright © Ammon Patrick Magnusson 2014 All Rights Reserved The University of Utah Graduate School STATEMENT OF THESIS APPROVAL The thesis of Ammon Patrick Magnusson has been approved by the following supervisory committee members: L. Ray Gunn , Chair September 25, 2014 Date Approved Edward J. Davies , Member September 25, 2014 Date Approved John S. Reed , Member September 25, 2014 Date Approved and by Isabel Moreira , Chair/Dean of the Department/College/School of History and by David B. Kieda, Dean of The Graduate School. ABSTRACT The FULRO rebellion in September 1964 was the direct result of Vietnamese meddling with Montagnard political identity, political identity created through Catholic missionaries, French colonialists, and American attempts to use the Montagnards to further their own political objectives. The overarching conclusion of this thesis asserts that the unintended results of prolonged historical abuse and misunderstanding of the Montagnard people contributed to the political instability of the central highlands of Vietnam around the time period of the Vietnam War. This instability caused serious complications for American and South Vietnamese efforts to secure the porous Central Highlands of Vietnam against communist aggression.

The Pope gave the Jesuits and missionaries in the foreign missions the task of converting the local people and training a «native» clergy, while the initial commercial relations between Europe and the peninsula were inaugurated by the Portuguese, followed a century later by the Dutch and the English. France, which was only involved from the religious point of view in the 17th century, sought supply points between India and China for the ships belonging to the Compagnie des Indes Orientales (East India Company). The civil war of 1775-1802, coming after a relatively peaceful period between the Vietnamese domains in the North and the South, gave it the opportunity, through Mgr. Pigneau de Béhaine, of signing an assistance treaty which was never applied, between the King of France Louis XVI and the heir Sabre belonging to Gia Long, to the Nguyen dynasty, the future Emperor Gia Long (1802- the Emperor of Annam - 1820).

  • Lê Văn Duyệt 1763 - 1832
    Lê văn Duyệt 1763 - 1832 A la période du Nouvel An lunaire (le Tết), du côté de Gia-Định autrefois banlieue limitrophe de Saigon et de nos jours son arrondissement de Bình Thạnh, on remarque un temple où se pressent des milliers et des milliers de gens venant y faire leur dévotions, dans des volutes de fumée d’encens. C’est le temple du maréchal Lê Văn Duyệt, mort en 1832 sous le règne de Minh Mạng. Ce temple connu sous le nom populaire de lăng Ông, ou de lăng Ông Bà Chiểu, abrite également son tombeau. Nous avons dit « faire leurs dévotions ». En effet, nombre de Vietnamiens le considèrent comme leur protecteur et un génie bienfaisant. Et pourtant c’était un militaire, donc s’étant battu, dans le sang. Et si on regarde d’un peu plus près, on s’aperçoit que plus d’un tiers - sinon la moitié - des « fidèles » sont d’origine chinoise, qui eux, le considèrent comme une autre version d’un de leurs génies, « ông Bốn », .
