ABOUT piTZeR COLLeGe Years of Growth THE SIXTH AND NEWEST member of The Claremont Colleges, Pitzer College was founded in I963 through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Russell K. Pitzer of Pomona, California. A liberal arts college for women, Pitzer places curricular emphasis on the social and behav­ ioral sciences. In the four years of intensive growth since the founding of the College, the excitement of experimentation has spread among stu­ dents, faculty and administration. This excitement is one of the unifying forces of Pitzer. The other is the sense of community, whereby student, faculty member, administrator and trustee seek together the answers to today's educational methods and problems. Educational Commitments and Goals The faculty and students are the College's greatest asset and both are keenly committed to undergraduate education. Pitzer makes every effort to provide a student body of diverse eth­ nic, cultural, geographical and socio-economic background. As a residential college, Pitzer provides a double learning experience­ undergraduates learn much from each other as well as from pro­ fessors. The context of a Pitzer education is therefore that of a vital, ever­ changing academic community in which both student and teacher participate in the learning process. The will to innovate and to ex­ periment-in college organization, in curriculum, and in the use ·, . of facilities-and the courage to abandon each innovation if it does ." not prove to be worthwhile are the dominant characteristics of the ._ .. ;; .... I ... ". .. intellectual climate of Pitzer. This concept extends to the greater • community, where students may gain experience-either as volun­ teers or in class-related projects-in the action-oriented community programs taking place in Operation Head Start, hospitals, and nur­ sery schools. These commitments and goals are enhanced because Pitzer is part of the university-type community of The Claremont Colleges. 10 The Campus The Claremont Colleges I I These buildings have been named in honor or memory of: Ina Scott Pitzer and her mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Fletcher; Robert J. Ber­ nard, founding chairman of the Pitzer Board of Trustees; Flora San­ born Pitzer, Mr. and Mrs. Roger C. Holden, Odell S. McConnell, chairman of the Board of Trustees, and Mrs. Giles W. Mead, mem­ ber of the Board of Trustees. In addition to the above facilities, Pitzer students have access to library, drama, auditorium, chapel, and infirmary facilities shared by all The Claremont Colleges and described elsewhere. The City of Claremont Claremont, California (pop. 20,000) is located at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains in eastern Los Angeles County, 35 miles from Los Angeles. For many years a center for citrus growers, Claremont is now predominantly residential. It is served by major freeways and limited public transportation. The Greater Los Angeles Area provides excellent offerings in music, drama, fine arts, museums of natural history, science and industry, and art. Pacific beaches, mountain and desert areas are readily accessible by automobile. The Claremont Colleges Forty years ago The Claremont Colleges began an experiment which was unique in American higher education. That experiment, the group or cluster concept, was designed to provide superior intellec­ tual resources for increasing numbers of students while maintain­ ing the personal relationships of the small college: a closely knit academic community, effective counseling, and small classes. The result today is a major educational center which has for many years The Campus combined the strengths of the small college and the university. Each The twenty-acre campus of Pitzer includes Scott Hall, the first ad­ college has its own emphasis and direction within the framework ministration and classroom building; Fletcher Hall, a hexagonal of liberal education.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating' adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding o f the dissertation.

    The Kpd and the Nsdap: a Sttjdy of the Relationship Between Political Extremes in Weimar Germany, 1923-1933 by Davis William

    THE KPD AND THE NSDAP: A STTJDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POLITICAL EXTREMES IN WEIMAR GERMANY, 1923-1933 BY DAVIS WILLIAM DAYCOCK A thesis submitted for the degree of Ph.D. The London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London 1980 1 ABSTRACT The German Communist Party's response to the rise of the Nazis was conditioned by its complicated political environment which included the influence of Soviet foreign policy requirements, the party's Marxist-Leninist outlook, its organizational structure and the democratic society of Weimar. Relying on the Communist press and theoretical journals, documentary collections drawn from several German archives, as well as interview material, and Nazi, Communist opposition and Social Democratic sources, this study traces the development of the KPD's tactical orientation towards the Nazis for the period 1923-1933. In so doing it complements the existing literature both by its extension of the chronological scope of enquiry and by its attention to the tactical requirements of the relationship as viewed from the perspective of the KPD. It concludes that for the whole of the period, KPD tactics were ambiguous and reflected the tensions between the various competing factors which shaped the party's policies. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE abbreviations 4 INTRODUCTION 7 CHAPTER I THE CONSTRAINTS ON CONFLICT 24 CHAPTER II 1923: THE FORMATIVE YEAR 67 CHAPTER III VARIATIONS ON THE SCHLAGETER THEME: THE CONTINUITIES IN COMMUNIST POLICY 1924-1928 124 CHAPTER IV COMMUNIST TACTICS AND THE NAZI ADVANCE, 1928-1932: THE RESPONSE TO NEW THREATS 166 CHAPTER V COMMUNIST TACTICS, 1928-1932: THE RESPONSE TO NEW OPPORTUNITIES 223 CHAPTER VI FLUCTUATIONS IN COMMUNIST TACTICS DURING 1932: DOUBTS IN THE ELEVENTH HOUR 273 CONCLUSIONS 307 APPENDIX I VOTING ALIGNMENTS IN THE REICHSTAG 1924-1932 333 APPENDIX II INTERVIEWS 335 BIBLIOGRAPHY 341 4 ABBREVIATIONS 1.

    Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-War Press

    Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-war Press by Deborah Barton A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Deborah Barton 2015 Writing for Dictatorship, Refashioning for Democracy: German Women Journalists in the Nazi and Post-war Press Deborah Barton Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This dissertation investigates how women journalists acted as professional functionaries in support of the National Socialist dictatorship, and later, a democratic West Germany. As a project that examines the intersections between the press, politics and gender, this study makes three contributions to the study of German history. The first is for the understanding the expansiveness and malleability of what constituted politics in the Third Reich and the nature of consensus between the regime and the population. Nazi gender ideology proclaimed that women belonged only in the private sphere. Correspondingly, Nazi press authorities dictated that women write only about topics pertaining to this area. The regime labeled such news apolitical. However, soft news from a cheerful perspective was an indispensible part of Nazi media policy: it provided the façade of normalcy and morale building under Hitler. In return for their support, the state offered women journalists a status not open to most women. The study of women journalists further unravels the draw of National Socialism for those Germans the regime deemed politically, socially and racially acceptable: increased possibilities and social prestige. The second contribution relates to the study of women in the professions, which has often been overlooked.

    Human Capital« Really Mean?

    798 UTOPIE kreativ, H. 201/202 (Juli/August 2007) – Summaries EKKEHART KRIPPENDORF Europe’s Renaissance – But in What Spirit? Recalling the ancient Greek myth of Europe’s genesis and defining it as one of the prerequisites for her cultures, the author discusses current problems in Europe’s development. He argues that protests against the militarization of the European Union, by a few activists encounter logically their limits in af- fectivity in, what he refers to as »the people’s real-politik attuned ears«. He describes the EU, founded by a class of bureaucratic careerists, as a con- struction lacking soul and ethical substance, and pleads for a renaissance in the spirit of the original tale of a culture of peace. RICHARD SAAGE Renaissance of Utopia? Reviewing the book »Renaissance der Utopie« (Renaissance of Utopia) ed. by Rudolf Maresch and Florian Rötzer (2004) the author describes a renais- sance of utopia that leaves the earlier utopian schemes far behind that had focused on a vision of communist society. Today, he says, there are no more »great stories« only »petty ones« concentrating on the optimization of the subjective state using the most advanced technology. But this, is certainly not the end – Morus’ »classical line« will rebound: self-critically and renewed. INGRID LOHMANN What Does »Human Capital« Really Mean? The overwhelming predominance of the term »human capital« – the author says – marks a new quality in the globalized capitalist system, transforming education into a sector of the market-orientated system, abiding only by criteria of business management. The widely discussed PISA tests are not, as many were hoping, a chance to overcome concrete lacks in the educa- tional system, but rather part of the aggressive strategy of commercial edu- cational services operating worldwide to streamline the entire educational system to fit into their strategies and heighten their profits.
