Anderson Committee Members, Jon R. Bond H. W. Brands John H. Lenihan David Vaught Head of Department, Walter L. Buenger May 2008 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT Truman, Congress and the Struggle for War and Peace in Korea. (May 2008) Larry Wayne Blomstedt, B.S., Texas State University; M.S., Texas A&M University-Kingsville Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Terry H. Anderson This dissertation analyzes the roles of the Harry Truman administration and Congress in directing American policy regarding the Korean conflict. Using evidence from primary sources such as Truman’s presidential papers, communications of White House staffers, and correspondence from State Department operatives and key congressional figures, this study suggests that the legislative branch had an important role in Korean policy. Congress sometimes affected the war by what it did and, at other times, by what it did not do. Several themes are addressed in this project. One is how Truman and the congressional Democrats failed each other during the war. The president did not dedicate adequate attention to congressional relations early in his term, and was slow to react to charges of corruption within his administration, weakening his party politically.

  • A Peaceful History of Europe Since 1815
    UNIVERSITY OF WESTERN ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY HISTORY 9712A Fall 2013 HIS9712A: A Peaceful History of Europe Since 1815 Francine McKenzie Lawson Hall 2233 661-2111 X84732 [email protected] Office Hours: Wednesday 9-11 or by appointment Sally Marks: ‘Major wars often provide the punctuation marks of history, primarily because they force drastic realignments in the relationships among states.’ (The Illusion of Peace, p. 1) Geoffrey Blainey: ‘For every thousand pages published on the causes of wars, there is less than one page directly on the causes of peace.’ (The Causes of War, p. 3) Course Description: The history of international relations is punctuated by wars; they are typically the bookends that demarcate the end of one era and the start of another - consider the so-called long 19th century: 1815- 1914. Historians devote much attention to the causes and consequences of war. By comparison, periods of ‘peace’ have received scant scholarly attention. It may be that as a non-event, peace is less tangible and therefore less easy to come to terms with. This international history course weaves together international relations, transnational and non-state actors, and ideas about peace over roughly 150 years of European history. It is not primarily a history of pacifism; our working definition of peace is broad and includes the mechanisms which sustained conditions of relative stability in Europe (the Concert of Europe and the EEC), attempts to resurrect peaceful international relations following wars (the Congress of Vienna, the Paris Peace conference of 1919, and the construction of the UN system after World War Two), conceptions of peace (individual, legal, economic, spiritual, geopolitical etc), periods/eras of ‘peace’, as well as the relationship between war and peace.

  • The International Peace Movement 1815-1914: an Outline
    The international peace movement 1815-1914: an outline Script of an online lecture given by Guido Grünewald on 9 June 2020* I will try to give an outline of the emergence and development of an international peace movement during its first 100 years. Since English is not my mother tongue and I haven’t spoken it for a longer time I will follow a written guideline in order to finish the job in the short time I have. The first peace organisations emerged in America and in Britain. This was no coincidence; while on the European continent after the end of the Napoleonic Wars restoration took over there were evolving democracies in the anglo-Saxon countries and a kind of peace tradition as for example carried by the quakers who renounced any kind of war. For those early societies the question if a war could be defensive and therefore justified was from the beginning a thorny issue. The New York Peace Sciety founded by merchant David Low Dodge followed a fundamental pacifism rejecting all kind of wars while the Massachussets Peace Society (its founder was unitarian minister Noah Worcester) gathered both fundamental pacifists and those who accepted strictly defensive wars. With about 50 other groups both organisations merged to become the American Peace Society in 1828. The London Peace Society had an interesting top-tier approach: its leadership had to pursue a fundamental pacifist course while ordinary members were allowed to have different ideas about defensive wars. On the European continent some short-lived peace organisations emerged only later. The formation of those first societies occured under the influence of Quakers (one of the 3 historic peace churches which renounced violence) and of Christians who were convinced that war was murderous and incompatible with Christian values.

  • Yukako Otori, to Be a Modern Instrument of Peace
    YUKAKO OTORI ‘TO BE A MODERN INSTRUMENT OF PEACE: AMERICAN QUAKER PACIFISM IN THE FIRST WORLD WAR’ (University of Tokyo: unpublished B.A. thesis, 2009) This thesis explores the profound impact of World War One on modern pacifism and the propulsion of modern Quaker peace testimony. The violence of mechanised, technological trench warfare shocked Progressivist-era America. The traditional isolationism of the United States was challenged by two diametrically-opposed viewpoints: militarism and pacifism. From the nineteenth-century weakening of US Quakerism (through sectarianism, industrialisation and the expansion West), the gradual consolidation of Meetings and the influence of Liberalism paved the way for the strengthening unity brought by anti-violence for the Society of Friends. The tentative path of modern, muscular and secularised US peace testimony is traced from 1914 to the 1917 American entrance to the European War under President Woodrow Wilson. The watershed was 1915, when social feminism met with Quaker faith in action (personified by Jane Addams and Lucy Biddle Lewis). Female activism resulted in the Woman’s Peace Party, a body that privileged maternal rhetoric over suffrage to protest for peace which received international attention through their 1915 participation at the Women’s Peace Congress at The Hague. From such associations, those at the 1915 Quaker Winona Lake Peace Conference and through the consequent Friends’ National Peace Committee, figures like Henry Joel Cadbury, Rufus M. Jones, Hannah Clothier Hull and Lewis

  • Feminist Pacifism
    Version 1.0 | Last updated 10 November 2015 Feminist Pacifism By Annika Wilmers A minority section of the women’s movements opposed World War I and organized the International Congress of Women at The Hague in April 1915. Its participants demanded women’s rights and more democracy in politics as a precondition for peace. Congress members founded the International Committee of Women for Permanent Peace, which became the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom in 1919. Table of Contents 1 The First Months of War 2 Organizing against the War and the International Congress of Women at The Hague 3 The International Committee of Women for Permanent Peace and its Work for Mediation 4 Feminist Pacifism between International Networking and Wartime Barriers 5 The ICWPP and the Peace Conference Selected Bibliography Citation The First Months of War Feminist pacifism can be traced back to the 19th century, but compared to other relevant topics of the time, like women’s work or suffrage, pacifism was not a main priority of the women’s movements before World War I, and interest in pacifism varied from country to country. Before 1914, women were already playing an active part within the peace movements, but feminist pacifism as an individual branch of the international women’s movement only came to life when a minority faction of the women’s movements opposed World War I. After the outbreak of World War I, the vast majority of women’s movements in the warring countries supported the war efforts of their home countries, but feminist opposition to the war can be found from August 1914 on.
