DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF PHOTOS BY MARY ANNE DAVIS John Morton "Jack" Young attended the University of Virginia and the University of Texas at El Paso, earning a BA in American and Latin Studies in 1967. He then obtained his MA in Anthropology in 1970 from Catholic University in Washington, D.C. Jack served as archaeologist from 1977 to 1994 for the Bureau of Land Management's Boise District. Those who knc\\' Jack not only appreciated his professionalism in the field, but also the breadth of his character and his variety of interests. He was fluent in Spanish, he taught anthropology and archaeology, he was an avid ham radio operator and collector of vintage equipment, he was a pilot, and he was a master classical guitar musician. Jack passed away on February 22, 1995, after a long battle with prostate cancer, but his spirit lives on. This publication is a celebration of Jack's work - from the family, friends, co-workers, and fellow archaeologists whose lives he deeply touched.

Architectural transformations on the Market Square in Krakow A systematic visual catalogue Jean-Yves BLAISE Iwona DUDEK Different faces of one ‘idea’ Section three, presents a selection of analogous examples (European public use and commercial buildings) so as to help the reader weigh to which extent the layout of Krakow’s marketplace, as well as its architectures, can be related to other sites. Market Square in Krakow is paradoxically at the same time a typical example of medieval marketplace and a unique site. But the frontline between what is common and what is unique can be seen as “somewhat fuzzy”. Among these examples readers should observe a number of unexpected similarities, as well as sharp contrasts in terms of form, usage and layout of buildings.

  • Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920
    An Intimate World: Race, Migration, and Chinese and Irish Domestic Servants in the United States, 1850-1920 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrew Theodore Urban IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advised by Donna Gabaccia and Erika Lee June 2009 © Andrew Urban, 2009 Acknowledgements While I rarely discussed the specifics of my dissertation with my fellow graduate students and friends at the University of Minnesota – I talked about basically everything else with them. No question or topic was too large or small for conversations that often carried on into the wee hours of the morning. Caley Horan, Eric Richtmyer, Tim Smit, and Aaron Windel will undoubtedly be lifelong friends, mahjong and euchre partners, fantasy football opponents, kindred spirits at the CC Club and Mortimer’s, and so on. I am especially grateful for the hospitality that Eric and Tim (and Tank the cat) offered during the fall of 2008, as I moved back and forth between Syracuse and Minneapolis. Aaron and I had the fortune of living in New York City at the same time in our graduate careers, and I have fond memories of our walks around Stuyvesant Park in the East Village and Prospect Park in Brooklyn, and our time spent with the folks of Tuesday night. Although we did not solve all of the world’s problems, we certainly tried. Living in Brooklyn, I also had the opportunity to participate in the short-lived yet productive “Brooklyn Scholars of Domestic Service” (AKA the BSDS crew) reading group with Vanessa May and Lara Vapnek.

  • Banishment of Anti-Communist Chinese to Formosa: the British As Effectual Mediators in Malaya
    International Journal of ChinaBanishment Studies of Anti-Communist Chinese to Formosa 351 Vol. 7, No. 3, December 2016, pp. 351-372 Banishment of Anti-Communist Chinese to Formosa: The British as Effectual Mediators in Malaya Low Choo Chin* Universiti Sains Malaysia Abstract This research examines the Malayan deportation regime by looking at the banishment of two categories of deportees to Formosa, who could not be deported to mainland China due to their anti-communist outlook. It aims to: 1) analyse an alternative solution to sending alien Chinese to Formosa instead of mainland China, 2) the shifting policy of the British in facilitating the banishment of anti-communist alien Chinese to Formosa, and 3) the attitude of the Federation government in threatening (both the British and Formosa) to send the Chinese to China, if the British consul failed to persuade Formosa to accept them. It asks how the relationship between Malaya, the British and Formosa shaped Malayan banishment practices. This article suggests that the practices were hampered by the absence of diplomatic channels between Malaya and Formosa and the reluctance of Malaya to deal on a non-official basis through the Free China Relief Association. This, then presented the British with the dilemma of whether or not they had a special responsibility to resolve the issue on behalf of its former colony. Keywords: Banishment, refugees, secret societies, Federation of Malaya, Commonwealth Relations Office, Formosa 1. Introduction This article surveys the role of the British, who acted as mediators on behalf of pre and post-independence Malaya. Owing much to the British consular post in Taiwan, Malaya was able to banish anti-communist Chinese to Formosa, with whom they did not have diplomatic relations.
