A Humble Protest a Literary Generation's Quest for The
A HUMBLE PROTEST A LITERARY GENERATION’S QUEST FOR THE HEROIC SELF, 1917 – 1930 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jason A. Powell, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Steven Conn, Adviser Professor Paula Baker Professor David Steigerwald _____________________ Adviser Professor George Cotkin History Graduate Program Copyright by Jason Powell 2008 ABSTRACT Through the life and works of novelist John Dos Passos this project reexamines the inter-war cultural phenomenon that we call the Lost Generation. The Great War had destroyed traditional models of heroism for twenties intellectuals such as Ernest Hemingway, Edmund Wilson, Malcolm Cowley, E. E. Cummings, Hart Crane, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and John Dos Passos, compelling them to create a new understanding of what I call the “heroic self.” Through a modernist, experience based, epistemology these writers deemed that the relationship between the heroic individual and the world consisted of a dialectical tension between irony and romance. The ironic interpretation, the view that the world is an antagonistic force out to suppress individual vitality, drove these intellectuals to adopt the Freudian conception of heroism as a revolt against social oppression. The Lost Generation rebelled against these pernicious forces which they believed existed in the forms of militarism, patriotism, progressivism, and absolutism. The -

It is because of the grassroots support of the young white men who adore him that Ron Paul has become a major figure in today’s political scene. What attracts young white men to Ron Paul? This paper explores the history and discourse of Libertarianism to better understand the political subjectivity and identity of Ron Paul supporters. In Chapter 2, I historically contextualize Paul’s libertarian discourse. I argue that the discourse of libertarianism is characterized by claims to an apolitical, ahistorical past in which Libertarian rhetoric naturalizes discourses of free market capitalism, “classical” liberalism, and “authentic” Americanism. -

ON THE DETECTION OF HATE SPEECH, HATE SPEAKERS AND POLARIZED GROUPS IN ONLINE SOCIAL MEDIA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Dana Warmsley December 2017 c 2017 Dana Warmsley ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ON THE DETECTION OF HATE SPEECH, HATE SPEAKERS AND POLARIZED GROUPS IN ONLINE SOCIAL MEDIA Dana Warmsley, Ph.D. Cornell University 2017 The objective of this dissertation is to explore the use of machine learning algorithms in understanding and detecting hate speech, hate speakers and po- larized groups in online social media. Beginning with a unique typology for detecting abusive language, we outline the distinctions and similarities of dif- ferent abusive language subtasks (offensive language, hate speech, cyberbully- ing and trolling) and how we might benefit from the progress made in each area. Specifically, we suggest that each subtask can be categorized based on whether or not the abusive language being studied 1) is directed at a specific individ- ual, or targets a generalized “Other” and 2) the extent to which the language is explicit versus implicit. We then use knowledge gained from this typology to tackle the “problem of offensive language” in hate speech detection. A key challenge for automated hate speech detection on social media is the separation of hate speech from other instances of offensive language. We present a Logistic Regression classifier, trained on human annotated Twitter data, that makes use of a uniquely derived lexicon of hate terms along with features that have proven successful in the detection of offensive language, hate speech and cyberbully- ing. -

A Response to the Libertarian Critics of Open-Borders Libertarianism
LINCOLN MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW __________________________________ VOLUME 4 FALL 2016 ISSUE 1 ____________________________________ A RESPONSE TO THE LIBERTARIAN CRITICS OF OPEN-BORDERS LIBERTARIANISM Walter E. Block, Ph.D. Harold E. Wirth Eminent Scholar Endowed Chair and Professor of Economics Joseph A. Butt, S.J. College of Business I. INTRODUCTION Libertarians may be unique in many regards, but their views on immigration do not qualify. They are as divided as is the rest of the population on this issue. Some favor open borders, and others oppose such a legal milieu. The present paper may be placed in the former category. It will outline both sides of this debate in sections II and III. Section IV is devoted to some additional arrows in the quiver of the closed border libertarians, and to a refutation of them. We conclude in section V. A RESPONSE TO THE LIBERTARIAN CRITICS OF OPEN-BORDERS LIBERTARIANISM 143 II. ANTI OPEN BORDERS The libertarian opposition to free immigration is straightforward and even elegant.1 It notes, first, a curious bifurcation in international economic relations. In the case of both trade and investment, there must necessarily be two2 parties who agree to the commercial interaction. In the former case, there must be an importer and an exporter; both are necessary. Without the consent of both parties, the transaction cannot take place. A similar situation arises concerning foreign investment. The entrepreneur who wishes to set up shop abroad must obtain the willing acquiescence of the domestic partner for the purchase of land and raw materials. And the same occurs with financial transactions that take place across 1 Peter Brimelow, ALIEN NATION: COMMON SENSE ABOUT AMERICA’S IMMIGRATION DISASTER (1995); Jesús Huerta De Soto, A Libertarian Theory of Free Immigration, 13 J. -
Psychological and Personality Profiles of Political Extremists
Psychological and Personality Profiles of Political Extremists Meysam Alizadeh1,2, Ingmar Weber3, Claudio Cioffi-Revilla2, Santo Fortunato1, Michael Macy4 1 Center for Complex Networks and Systems Research, School of Informatics and Computing, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA 2 Computational Social Science Program, Department of Computational and Data Sciences, George Mason University, Fairfax, VA 22030, USA 3 Qatar Computing Research Institute, Doha, Qatar 4 Social Dynamics Laboratory, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA Abstract Global recruitment into radical Islamic movements has spurred renewed interest in the appeal of political extremism. Is the appeal a rational response to material conditions or is it the expression of psychological and personality disorders associated with aggressive behavior, intolerance, conspiratorial imagination, and paranoia? Empirical answers using surveys have been limited by lack of access to extremist groups, while field studies have lacked psychological measures and failed to compare extremists with contrast groups. We revisit the debate over the appeal of extremism in the U.S. context by comparing publicly available Twitter messages written by over 355,000 political extremist followers with messages written by non-extremist U.S. users. Analysis of text-based psychological indicators supports the moral foundation theory which identifies emotion as a critical factor in determining political orientation of individuals. Extremist followers also differ from others in four of the Big -
Toward a History of Management Thought
Toward a History of Management Thought Charles Howell SyracuseUniversity The historyof managementthought suffers from a constricteddefinition of its subject.Constituent fields (marketing) and cognate fields (economics and law) areoften neglected in studiesof the subject.The term"thought" tends to be equated to knowledge,and thus given a positivistcast, or describedin instrumentalterms andthereby reduced to a generalizedform of practice.The historyof management thought,in short,invites more expansive treatment than it hashitherto received. Thispaper explores the potential benefits of an enlargeddefinition. The paperfocuses on two economists,Edwin Gay of Harvardand Richard Ely of the University of Wisconsin,who influencedthe developmentof managementthought, and whosecareers illuminate aspects of it that havebeen neglectedin previoushistories. Both are associated with institutionsthat promoted scholarship,education, and public discourse about business and its socialfunction-- institutionswhose role in shapingmanagement thought has received little attention. Both showeda keeninterest in the role of the statein economiclife. Their advocacy of regulatoryand fiscal policies suggests that ideas about techniques of managing grewup alongsideideas about political and social life, andthat in any satisfactory accountof managementthought these two strandsmust be interwoven.Both played a role in the professionalizationof economicsin the early twentiethcentury: their contributionto managementthought highlights interconnections between the two fieldsthat -

El Darwinismo Social Recurrente O La Propuesta De Esterilizar a Las Personas Desempleadas
El darwinismo social recurrente o la propuesta de esterilizar a las personas desempleadas Daniel Raventós 21/01/2018 Un amigo me envía una nota periodística sobre las declaraciones de un diputado conservador del Reino Unido en las que propone esterilizar a los desempleados para que dejen de cobrar ayudas por hijos. El tipo, un tal Ben Bradley, asegura que “Hay cientos de familias en el Reino Unido que ganan más de 60.000 libras en beneficios sin mover un dedo porque tienen tantos hijos (¡y para el resto de nosotros ese es un salario de más de 90.000 libras antes de impuestos!)”. Este simpático pimpollo tiene solamente 28 años. Parece algo horrible y desvergonzado. Pero hay precedentes espectaculares mucho más sonados. La nota enviada por mi amigo me recordó un artículo escrito para Sin Permiso hace casi 8 años al que voy a desempolvar un poco. Situémonos en los años 30 del siglo pasado. Se discutía por entonces en EEUU la conveniencia del subsidio de desempleo. Se acabó implantando en el año 1935, bajo la presidencia de Franklin D. Roosevelt, este subsidio. Hubo grandes debates, antes y después de promulgada la ley, entre políticos, economistas, intelectuales, periodistas y población en general. No ha pasado ni un siglo entero, pero se emitían declaraciones del siguiente tono sobre lo que supondría este subsidio: “La dominación definitiva del socialismo sobre la vida y la industria” (Asociación Nacional de Fabricantes); “Destruirá la iniciativa, desalentando el ahorro y ahogando la responsabilidad individual” (James L. Donnelly, de la Asociación de Fabricantes de Illinois); “En un momento u otro, traerá consigo, ineluctablemente, el final del capitalismo privado” (Charles Denby, Jr., de la Asociación Americana de Abogados).
