Education Program August 12, 2013 Student’s copy Education Program August 12, 2013 C L A S S R O O M E D I T I O N READING AND REASONING Read each article and answer the questions that follow. Why Germany Must Save the Euro: Rana Foroohar argues that while the Germans may complain about their profligate EU partners and balk at underwriting more bailouts, they need to save the euro. 1. What is Germany’s role in the euro-zone crisis? Refer to p26. 2. What do (a) Germany’s Mittelstand firms and (b) the writer think of Germany’s insistence on austerity and why? Refer to p26. 3. Germany’s insistence on austerity has contributed to the country’s growing unpopularity across Europe. However, the Germans continue to argue that European nations “need to buckle down and reduce wages and benefits, slash budgets and shrink debts.” According to the writer, why is this recommendation flawed? Refer to p27. 4. Even amongst the Mittelstand firms, there are those who believe that Germany should do whatever it takes to bail out the euro. Explain why Jürgen Müller, Daimler’s chief economist, supports this conclusion. Refer to p28. 5. On p30, the writer again expresses her preference for Germany to underwrite whatever debt restructuring and payments necessary to keep the euro zone together and shift its economic model to help economic rebalancing. However, she acknowledges that it will be challenging. Identify the obstacles. 6. The writer points to “a few glimmers of hope” on p31. What gives her “hope” and why does she use “glimmers” to describe them? The Tashkeel Diaries: Chris Ballard tells the story of how Tom Gouttierre transformed Afghan youth under his charge into basketball players who understood the value of tashkeel. In the process, he came to know and love Afghanistan and its people. 7. “In the end, it’s a story about one man’s enduring influence on a country, and its influence on him. And what basketball can achieve, and what it cannot.” (p34) In addition to these broad observations, what other insights and takeaways can you derive from the article? RESEARCH Read each article and complete the tasks that follow. Why German y Must Save the Euro 1. Countries participating in the global economy are easily affected by downturns in other economies.

Whistle-blowers are people who are in a position to realise that illicit activities that are taking place in government agencies and corporations. Their access to classified information or their firsthand experience make it easy for them to spot violations of laws and regulations or threats to public interests. They believe that they are right to reveal such information or operations. While some whistle-blowers make their allegations internally, others take their accusations to regulators, enforcement agencies or the media. Do some research on the following individuals and their allegations and revelations. In your opinion, were they right to have blown the whistle? Were their intentions honourable and justifiable?

Try using the words in your essays! The Tashkeel Dairies 1. When, as a sophomore in 1960, he heard presidential candidate John F Kennedy speak about creating the Peace Corps, Gouttierre was transfixed. 2. … Afghanistan in 1965 was on the verge of a democratic renaissance but fractured by tribal and ethnic conflicts. 3. In Afghanistan, they were intractable obstacles. 4. A year earlier, he had impetuously written to John Wooden, head basketball coach at UCLA, … 5. There were others Gouttierre was less fond of: the brooding man he taught named Najibullah, who would one day hold all of Afghanistan in his iron grip, and the young politician Babrak Karmal, who accosted him at parties and said, “Why are you Americans in Vietnam? You’re being imperialists!” 6. Neumann explained that Bradley was enamoured of The Man Who Would Be King, a short story by Kipling that was set in the Hindu Kush. 7. … the secondary motive was to give China a political and diplomatic foothold in Afghanistan. 8. Gouttierre laments the vision foreigners have of Afghanistan. The Pope’s Baby Step on Gays 9. Pope Francis is already showing himself to be a winsome, endearing and inspiring successor to St. Peter. 10. It is telling that this rhetorical question got so much attention, since Jesus, who Christians believe was the perfect revelation of God, warned, “Judge not, that you be not judged.” 11. Before we declare a new day for Catholics regarding homosexuality, however, a closer look at the Pope’s statement reveals little change in the church’s stance on being gay. 12. … a wholly unfair linking of homosexuality with paedophilia that has been thoroughly debunked by science. 13. But what about gay parishioners sitting in the pews of Catholic churches, trying to reconcile their faith with the condemnation of their love as disordered, evil and sinful? 14. Conservative evangelicals, especially younger ones, are looking for a way to affirm gay Christians and the love they come to know with other people. 15. If God is love, as Scripture attests, then surely God is gay love too. Permission is granted to individual teacher to reproduce this Student Worksheet for classroom use only.

But there is something particularly dispiriting about the way Egypt’s so-called liberals, who played a key part in the thrilling 2011 uprising that overthrew President Hosni Mubark, have so enthusiastically reneged on the fundamental tenets of political pluralism and democracy. 17. The liberal chorus that supported Morsi’s ouster argues it is sometimes necessary to put democracy on pause in order to save it. 18. In the Egyptian context, the word liberal is often used as a catchall for people who don’t like Islamists. 19. It has governed in coalition with two secular parties, withdrawn references to Islamic law in the draft constitution, and has done very little that could be considered extremist. 20. Yet, Tunisa’s liberals – animated by hard-line French-style secularism – routinely accuse Ennadha of being stealth radicals waiting for the right moment to implement an extremist agenda.

  • My Name Is Samuel Provance and I Grew up Williamsburg, Virginia
    p~ãìÉä=gK=mêçî~åÅÉ= mêÉé~êÉÇ=pí~íÉãÉåí= My name is Samuel Provance and I come from Greenville, SC. I enlisted in the United States Army in NVVU and sought a specialization in intelligence in OMMO. I was drawn to the Army by the professional training and good life it promised, but also because it provided me an opportunity to serve my country. The Army has stood for duty, honor and country. In wearing my country’s service uniform and risking my life for my country’s protection, it never occurred to me that I might be required to be a part of things that conflict with these values of duty, honor and country. But my experience in Iraq and later in Germany left me troubled by what has happened to the Army. I saw the traditional values of military service as I understood them compromised or undermined. I am still proud to be a soldier and to wear the uniform of the United States Army. But I am concerned about what the Army is becoming. While serving with my unit in Iraq, I became aware of changes in the procedures in which I and my fellow soldiers were trained. These changes involved using procedures which we previously did not use, and had been trained not to use, and in involving military police (MP) personnel in “preparation” of detainees who were to be interrogated. Some detainees were treated in an incorrect and immoral fashion as a result of these changes. After what had happened at Abu Ghraib became a matter of public knowledge, and there was a demand for action, young soldiers were scapegoated while superiors misrepresented what had happened and tried to misdirect attention away from what was really going on.

  • Diagnosing and Analyzing Flawed Investigations: Abu Ghraib As a Case Study
    C A R D O Z O L AW R EVIEW de•novo • Featured Item • DIAGNOSING AND ANALYZING FLAWED INVESTIGATIONS: ABU GHRAIB AS A CASE STUDY Keith Rohman* We think of investigation as a road to truth, and truth as the goal of an investigation. Yet time and again, high- visibility investigations of public scandals not only fail to uncover the truth, they seem to redirect the focus in the wrong direction. The Department of Defense‘s (DoD) investigations of the detainee abuse scandal at the Abu Ghraib prison are a recent example of this. With the departure of the Bush Administration, there is renewed interest in examining both the Abu Ghraib scandal and other aspects of the administration‘s interrogation policies. Senator Patrick Leahy, the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, has proposed a truth commission along the lines of the South Africa Truth and Reconciliation Commission.1 Others have called for Congressional hearings,2 criminal investigations,3 * Keith Rohman is president of Public Interest Investigations, Inc. and an Adjunct Professor of Law at Loyola Law School of Los Angeles. His practice focuses on human rights and civil rights investigations. He is the lead investigator for plaintiffs‘ attorneys representing torture victims from Abu Ghraib in Saleh v. CACI et al, and related litigation, and has interviewed torture victims, as well as former soldiers and private contractors who worked at the Abu Ghraib prison.

  • Food Riots, Food Rights and the Politics of Provisions
    2Aworldinprotest Sara Burke Introduction During the time period covered by the Food Riots and Food Rights project, 2007-2012, the world registered a dramatic eruption of protests on many issues, includingfood. The protests were largely non-violent, but during these years episodes reported as "riots" and "violent protests" also occurred. These spiked to historic levels in 2008, 2011 and 2012 in response to price hikes for basic commodities necessary to life: fuel, water and especially food. Protests for subsistence have not been well understood, as they were not well covered in international news due to systematic biases in professional media organizations, which tend to ignore nonviolentprotests — or the nonviolent parts of protests — and also fail to distinguish between acts that harm lives and those that harm property, as well as labeling "violent" both riots and protests violently repressed by the state. This chapter aims to show how the historical eruption of protests throughoutthe period can be understood as a response to the stormy political economy 1 of the time. To many critics of the dominant economic paradigm, that time is best understood as the forseeable outcome of neoliberalism, what classical politicaleconomists Gérard Dúmenil and Dominique Lévy's 2011 book The Crisis of Neoliberalism characterizes as a globalized system of "free-market economics, free trade, and the free mobility of capital", literally a "new liberalism" and correspondingsocial order in which fmancialization propels a managerial apparatus that disciplines

  • Food Riots, Food Rights and the Politics of Provisions
    Food Riots, Food Rights and the Politics of Provisions Thousands of people in dozens of countries took to the streets when world food prices spiked in 2008 and 2011. What does the persistence of popular mobiliza- tion around food tell us about the politics of subsistence in an era of integrated food markets and universal human rights? This book interrogates this period of historical rupture in the global system of subsistence, getting behind the head- lines and inside the politics of food for people on low incomes. The half decade of 2007–2012 was a period of intensely volatile food prices as well as unusual levels of popular mobilization, including protests and riots. Detailed case studies are included here from Bangladesh, Cameroon, India, Kenya and Mozambique. The case studies illustrate that political cultures and ways of organizing around food share much across geography and history, indicat- ing common characteristics of the popular politics of provisions under capitalism. However, all politics are ultimately local, and it is demonstrated how the historic fallout of a subsistence crisis depends ultimately on how the actors and institu- tions articulate, negotiate and reassert their specific claims within the peculiari- ties of each policy. A key conclusion of the book is that the politics of provisions remain essen- tial to the right to food and that they involve unruliness. In other words, food riots work. The book explains how and why they continue to do so even in the globalized food system of the 21st century. Food riots signal a state unable to meet a principal condition of its social contract, and create powerful pressure on a state to address that most fundamental of failings.

  • Different Motivators for Whistleblowers and Leakers
    ! DIFFERENT MOTIVATORS FOR WHISTLEBLOWERS AND LEAKERS by Andrew Ghalili A research study submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Global Security Studies Baltimore, Maryland August 2020 "!2020 Andrew Ghalili All Rights Reserved ! ! ABSTRACT What are the motivating factors for U.S. Intelligence Community whistleblowers, and how do they compare to those of leakers? This study seeks to determine the motivators for an individual within U.S. national security, and more specifically within the IC, to whistleblow. Interviews with 12 whistleblowers or leakers were analyzed to determine the factors that motivate whistleblowers and whether they differ from those that motivate leakers. The factors that were coded for include Intention, Education on Whistleblowing, Perceived Personal Cost (PPC), Public Service Motivation (PSM), and Loyalty. The current study adds to the field of whistleblowing research by filling a gap in the existing research, especially as related specifically to U.S. national security. The study finds that whistleblowers express higher levels of PPC, loyalty to institution, and loyalty to law than leakers, while leakers express higher levels of PSM, loyalty to public, and loyalty to self. The implications of these findings on policy within U.S. national security and Intelligence Community organizations are discussed and analyzed, resulting in multiple policy recommendations. This study was read and reviewed by Michael Warner and Anthony Lang. ##! ! ! TABLE OF
