Acquisition Information Multiple gifts from Stanley K. Sheinbaum, 2004-2012. Biography From the Amazon.com summary of "Citizen Stan" dvd: This film profiles a man who rose from humble beginnings to influence politics on a world stage. Stanley Sheinbaum has shaped foreign policy with Prime Ministers, Presidents and Kings. His loyalty to friends and freedom sometimes meant taking great risks. His dedication to peace in the Middle East and opening a dialogue with both sides has put him at odds with people right in his own backyard. His life story holds lessons of character and history, and illustrates the conviction it Guide to the Stanley K. Mss 217 2 Sheinbaum Collection takes to change our world. Directed by Patty Sharaf. With journalist Robert Scheer. Narrated by Richard Dreyfuss. Interviews with Daniel Ellsberg, Margaret and Nicholas Papandreou, wife and son of the late Greek Prime Minister, former Los Angeles Police Chief Daryl Gates, PLO Negotiator Nabil Shaath, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Warren Beatty, Jesse Jackson. Synopsis: Growing up in New York's rag trade, the teen-aged Sheinbaum joined the US army effort in WW2, photo-screening maps onto silk for aviators to use. A kid who had done poorly in high school, he used the GI bill to work for a doctorate in economics at Stanford. In 1954, Sheinbaum landed a teaching job at Michigan State University. He also became co-director of the Vietnam Project at MSU. Under the auspices of the University, the project was hiring men to go to South Vietnam and set up a police force. Stanley Sheinbaum was the man doing the hiring. On a disillusioning trip to Saigon to check on his work, Sheinbaum realized men he had hired were now part of the CIA. Later he came to learn they were using torture to interrogate Vietcong prisoners. Sheinbaum left the MSU project to join the first independent think-tank, the Robert Maynard Hutchins Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions in Santa Barbara. One day journalist Robert Scheer confronted Sheinbaum about his role in the Vietnam Project. Much to his surprise, Sheinbaum was a cooperative witness. He and Scheer joined rank, traveling to Vietnam in 1966 to investigate the war. The two men rode a puddle jumper through Cambodia, looking for the path of the Ho Chi Minh trail. Fully at odds with Johnson's the best and the brightest, they were trying to head off the bombing of neutral Cambodia. In Saigon, Sheinbaum locked horns with his younger brother Gil, who had become the advisor to the American ambassador, Ellsworth Bunker. Meanwhile, Stanley Sheinbaum ran for congress in Santa Barbara on an anti-war platform in 1966 and again in 1968. During the Pentagon Papers trial, Sheinbaum organized the defense of Daniel Ellsberg and landed on Nixon's enemies list. Sheinbaum's commitment to the cause of peace has taken him to Greece, Palestine, and the streets of Los Angeles. Don't miss this incredible life story. A copy of "Citizen Stan" has been cataloged separately for Special Collections. Stanley K. Sheinbaum: A 20th Century Knight's Quest for Peace, Civil Liberties and Economic Justice, by Stanley K.

  • Representations and Discourse of Torture in Post 9/11 Television: an Ideological Critique of 24 and Battlestar Galactica
    REPRESENTATIONS AND DISCOURSE OF TORTURE IN POST 9/11 TELEVISION: AN IDEOLOGICAL CRITIQUE OF 24 AND BATTLSTAR GALACTICA Michael J. Lewis A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2008 Committee: Jeffrey Brown, Advisor Becca Cragin ii ABSTRACT Jeffrey Brown Advisor Through their representations of torture, 24 and Battlestar Galactica build on a wider political discourse. Although 24 began production on its first season several months before the terrorist attacks, the show has become a contested space where opinions about the war on terror and related political and military adventures are played out. The producers of Battlestar Galactica similarly use the space of television to raise questions and problematize issues of war. Together, these two television shows reference a long history of discussion of what role torture should play not just in times of war but also in a liberal democracy. This project seeks to understand the multiple ways that ideological discourses have played themselves out through representations of torture in these television programs. This project begins with a critique of the popular discourse of torture as it portrayed in the popular news media. Using an ideological critique and theories of televisual realism, I argue that complex representations of torture work to both challenge and reify dominant and hegemonic ideas about what torture is and what it does. This project also leverages post-structural analysis and critical gender theory as a way of understanding exactly what ideological messages the programs’ producers are trying to articulate.

Critics question the constitutionality ofjoint-training between the military and civilian police, as well as the Fourth Amendment considerationsraised by SWAT tactics. This Note examines the history, mission, and continuing needfor police SWAT teams, addressingthe constitutionalissues raisedconcerning training and tactics. It explains how SWATjoint-training with the military is authorized by federal law and concludes that SWAT tactics are constitutionallyacceptable in a majority of situations. Though these tactics are legal andconstitutionally authorized, this Note acknowledges the validfearscritics have regarding the abuse of such police authority, and the limitations of constitutionaltort jurisprudence in adequately redressingresulting injuries.

FREE SPEECH AND CIVIL LIBERTIES IN THE SECOND CIRCUIT Floyd Abrams* INTRODUCTION Much of the development of First Amendment law in the United States has occurred as a result of American courts rejecting well-established principles of English law. The U.S. Supreme Court has frequently rejected English law, permitting far more public criticism of the judiciary than would be countenanced in England, rejecting English libel law as being insufficiently protective of freedom of expression1 and holding that even hateful speech directed at minorities receives the highest level of constitutional protection.2 The Second Circuit has played a major role in the movement away from the strictures of the law as it existed in the mother country. In some areas, dealing with the clash between claims of national security and freedom of expression, the Second Circuit predated the Supreme Court’s protective First Amendment rulings.

  • Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As Of, January 27, 2015) Elections • in Israel, Elections for the Knesset A
    Israel and Overseas: Israeli Election Primer 2015 (As of, January 27, 2015) Elections In Israel, elections for the Knesset are held at least every four years. As is frequently the case, the outgoing government coalition collapsed due to disagreements between the parties. As a result, the Knesset fell significantly short of seeing out its full four year term. Knesset elections in Israel will now be held on March 17, 2015, slightly over two years since the last time that this occurred. The Basics of the Israeli Electoral System All Israeli citizens above the age of 18 and currently in the country are eligible to vote. Voters simply select one political party. Votes are tallied and each party is then basically awarded the same percentage of Knesset seats as the percentage of votes that it received. So a party that wins 10% of total votes, receives 10% of the seats in the Knesset (In other words, they would win 12, out of a total of 120 seats). To discourage small parties, the law was recently amended and now the votes of any party that does not win at least 3.25% of the total (probably around 130,000 votes) are completely discarded and that party will not receive any seats. (Until recently, the “electoral threshold,” as it is known, was only 2%). For the upcoming elections, by January 29, each party must submit a numbered list of its candidates, which cannot later be altered. So a party that receives 10 seats will send to the Knesset the top 10 people listed on its pre-submitted list.
