The compilers feel that bot purposes were fulfilled. Although this bibliography is by no meanst:ompTcT-i hts 4th wino entries. The annotations aredescriptive, rather than ev/pi native. The contents are arranged into eight seatorrs.

Each entryis numbered consecutively, and both indexes are arranged alphabetically withcorresponding entry numbers, rather than page 'numbers. The efforts of the compilers of this bibliographycentered on Indiana and other periodicals, Indiana history -Woks, and Indiana countyand local histories. No at- tempts were made to lite/hide masterstheses or doctoral dissertations writtenabout Indiana journalism w-Ifich do exist in Indiana'scolleges and universities and those institutions of othgr states. Historical articlesappearing in newspapers. Sunday magazihes or supplements were notincluded. Obitries of journalists, which can not includ- be found in the Indiana HistoryBulletin, or the Indianb Publisher, were ed. Hopefully, these materials will heincluded in a sequel to this present effort. As the crpilers surveyed their work,it was obvious to them that a great deal of ,,,,fneaningful research had been conducted. Thecontributions of two historians, Lo- / gan Esarey and Donald F. Carmony, were ofsignificant proportions. Dr. Esarey, specifically through many newspaperarticles, had been able to place in perspec- tive the role of the press in Indianabefore the 1900s. Dr. Carmony's interest in Indi- articles that are in- ana editors, specifically,has produced a number of magazine valuable to the journalism researcher. Both menhave been associated with the His- Cottman, tory Department at IndianaUniversity. Other historians like George S. W. W. Woollen, and Herbert Bredemeier,for example, have provided regional im- portance to some of Indiana's newspapers. Yet, even with tile fine work that has beencontributed. much work remains to be done. It is surprising that Indiana, withenough newspapers to rank fifth in the in- dustry in the country and enough population torank 19th among the states, has not prodUced a single book devoted to its newspaperhistory, a fertile topic in a state with such a literary tradition. Few articles canbe found on the economics of the In- diana newspaper industry, the technicalsievelopment of the newspaper industry in Indiana, the industry's role as a social andeconomic force in the state, and the his- tory of industries related to the newspaperbusiness, e.g. photoengraving plants. pa- Of the press in per mills, printing plants.The evolving history and status of freedom Indiana deserves attention.

  • Building Networks: Cooperation and Communication Among African Americans in the Urban Midwest, 1860-1910
    Building Networks: Cooperation and Communication Among African Americans in the Urban Midwest, 1860-1910 Jack S. Blocker Jr.* In the dramatic narrative of African-American history, the story of the post-Emancipation years begins in the rural South, where the rights won through postwar constitutional amendments gradually yield to the overwhelming forces of segregation and disfranchisement. During the First World War, the scene shifts to the metropolitan North, where many members of the rapidly growing southern-born migrant population develop a new, militant consciousness. Behind this primary narrative, however, lies another story. An earlier, smaller migration flow from South to North had already established the institutional and cultural foundations for the emergence of a national racial consciousness in postbellum America. Much of this crucial work took place in small and mid-size towns and cities. Some interpreters have seen the creation of a national racial consciousness as a natural and normal product of African heritage. This view, however, neglects the diverse origins and experiences of African Americans during the slavery years. “Alternatively,”writes historian Harold Forsythe, “we should consider that a distinctive national community developed from local roots during emancipation. Local associations of freedpeople, organized in families, neighborhood groupings, churches, [and] benevolent and fraternal orders, slowly developed into regional, statewide, and ultimately national consociations. This process of unification involved not only consciousness, but [also] institutional and power connections. It matured between 1909 and about 1925.”’The process of community-building can be seen clearly in the three states of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, which I call the Lower Midwest. On the eve of the Civil War, about 56,000 African Americans lived in the Lower Midwest.

  • The Gordian Knot: Apartheid & the Unmaking of the Liberal World Order, 1960-1970
    THE GORDIAN KNOT: APARTHEID & THE UNMAKING OF THE LIBERAL WORLD ORDER, 1960-1970 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Ryan Irwin, B.A., M.A. History ***** The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Peter Hahn Professor Robert McMahon Professor Kevin Boyle Professor Martha van Wyk © 2010 by Ryan Irwin All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the apartheid debate from an international perspective. Positioned at the methodological intersection of intellectual and diplomatic history, it examines how, where, and why African nationalists, Afrikaner nationalists, and American liberals contested South Africa’s place in the global community in the 1960s. It uses this fight to explore the contradictions of international politics in the decade after second-wave decolonization. The apartheid debate was never at the center of global affairs in this period, but it rallied international opinions in ways that attached particular meanings to concepts of development, order, justice, and freedom. As such, the debate about South Africa provides a microcosm of the larger postcolonial moment, exposing the deep-seated differences between politicians and policymakers in the First and Third Worlds, as well as the paradoxical nature of change in the late twentieth century. This dissertation tells three interlocking stories. First, it charts the rise and fall of African nationalism. For a brief yet important moment in the early and mid-1960s, African nationalists felt genuinely that they could remake global norms in Africa’s image and abolish the ideology of white supremacy through U.N.

  • 1 After Slavery & Reconstruction: the Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliogr
    After Slavery & Reconstruction: The Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliography Patrick S. O’Donnell (2020) Jacob Lawrence, Library, 1966 Apologia— Several exceptions notwithstanding (e.g., some titles treating the Reconstruction Era), this bibliography begins, roughly, with the twentieth century. I have not attempted to comprehensively cover works of nonfiction or the arts generally but, once more, I have made— and this time, a fair number of—exceptions by way of providing a taste of the requisite material. So, apart from the constraints of most of my other bibliographies: books, in English, these particular constraints are intended to keep the bibliography to a fairly modest length (around one hundred pages). This compilation is far from exhaustive, although it endeavors to be representative of the available literature, whatever the influence of my idiosyncratic beliefs and 1 preferences. I trust the diligent researcher will find titles on particular topics or subject areas by browsing carefully through the list. I welcome notice of titles by way of remedying any deficiencies. Finally, I have a separate bibliography on slavery, although its scope is well beyond U.S. history. * Or, if you prefer, “self-fulfillment and human flourishing (eudaimonia).” I’m not here interested in the question of philosophical and psychological differences between these concepts (i.e., self- realization and eudaimonia) and the existing and possible conceptions thereof, but more simply and broadly in their indispensable significance in reference to human nature and the pivotal metaphysical and moral purposes they serve in our critical and evaluative exercises (e.g., and after Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, in employing criteria derived from the notion of ‘human capabilities and functionings’) as part of our individual and collective historical quest for “the Good.” However, I might note that all of these concepts assume a capacity for self- determination.

  • TRACING the DISCOURSE of AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM by Aron Tabor
    DOES EXCEPTION PROVE THE RULE? TRACING THE DISCOURSE OF AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM By Aron Tabor Submitted to Central European University Doctoral School of Political Science, Public Policy and International Relations In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science Supervisor: Alexander Astrov Word Count: 91,719 Budapest, Hungary 2019 ii Declaration I hereby declare that no parts of this thesis have been accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. This thesis contains no material previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgement is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Aron Tabor April 26, 2019 iii iv Abstract The first two decades of the twenty-first century saw an unprecedented proliferation of the discourse of American exceptionalism both in scholarly works and in the world of politics; several recent contributions have characterized this notion in the context of a set of beliefs that create, construct, (re-)define and reproduce a particular foreign policy identity. At the same time, some authors also note that the term “American exceptionalism” itself was born in a specific discourse within U.S. Communism, and, for a period, it was primarily understood with reference to the peculiar causes behind the absence of a strong socialist movement in the United States. The connection between this original meaning and the later usage is not fully explored; often it is assumed that “exceptionalism” existed before the label was created as the idea is traced back to the founding of the American nation or even to the colonial period.

  • Steven Piott the RIGHT of the CARTOONIST
    Steven Piott CLARION UNIVERSITY THE RIGHT OF THE CARTOONIST: SAMUEL PENNYPACKER AND FREEDOM OF THE PRESS Those who have studied the role of the press during the Progressive 1Era have devoted considerable attention to the importance of muckraking. Having only recently emerged from the depression of the 1890s, and more aware than ever before of the impact of economic change on their lives and interested in understanding the workings of the political economy more clearly, the reading public was receptive to a new style of journalism. Playing on a public thirst for sensationalism, and tapping the emerging enthusiasm for issue-focused politics, journal- ists relied on exposes. Works like Lincoln Steffens' Shame of the Cities, Ida Tarbell's History of Standard Oil, and Upton Sinclair's The Jungle began as serialized articles in newspapers and magazines and shocked readers with accounts of political corruption, corporate malfeasance, the sale of adulterated meat and inhuman working conditions. These journalists were supported by the often overlooked editorial cartoonists. Cartoons like Frederick Burr Opper's series on the trusts, Homer Davenport's depictions of Mark Hanna, or the creative contributions of countless other cartoonists working the beat of municipal politics, grabbed the readers attention in much the same way.' Working together muckrakers educated the American people about the widespread cor- ruption and exploitation that seemed to intensify with the growth of industrial capitalism. Collectively they described the moral and ethical degeneration of a society where individuals seemed to conspire against the commonweal, violating laws and jeopardizing free institutions. Backing their bold accusations and biting satire with factual details, reporters and cartoonists created a unique journalistic moment that was both a response to a spirited public indignation and a means of focusing that anger and turning it into citizen activism.
