  • The Geopolitics of Laïcité in a Multicultural Age: French Secularism, Educational Policy and the Spatial Management of Difference
    The Geopolitics of Laïcité in a Multicultural Age: French Secularism, Educational Policy and the Spatial Management of Difference Christopher A. Lizotte A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Katharyne Mitchell, Chair Victoria Lawson Michael Brown Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Geography ©Copyright 2017 Christopher A. Lizotte University of Washington Abstract The Geopolitics of Laïcité in a Multicultural Age: French Secularism, Educational Policy and the Spatial Management of Difference Christopher A. Lizotte Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Katharyne Mitchell Geography I examine a package of educational reforms enacted following the January 2015 attacks in and around Paris, most notably directed at the offices of the satirical publication Charlie Hebdo. These interventions, known collectively as the “Great Mobilization for the Republic’s Values”, represent the latest in a string of educational attempts meant to reinvigorate a sense of national pride among immigrant-descended youth – especially Muslim – in France’s unique form of state secularism, laïcité. While ostensibly meant to apply equally across the nationalized French school system, in practice La Grande Mobilisation has been largely enacted in schools located in urban spaces of racialized difference thought to be “at risk” of anti-republican behavior. Through my work, I show that practitioners exercise their own power by subverting and adapting geopolitical discourses running through educational laïcité – notably global security, women’s rights, and communalism – are nuanced by school-based practitioners, who interpret state directives in the light of their institutional knowledge and responsiveness to the social and economic profiles of their student populations.

DOI: 20 France and the German Rearmament Problem 1945-1955 GEORGES-HENRI SouTou The Fourth Republic was shaken by many crises, but none aroused as much passion as the debate on the European Defence Community. When in 1950, five years after the end of the war and occupation, the suggestion of German rearmament was put to the French, the whole nation was profoundly shocked. However, thanks to recent research, particularly by Pierre Guillen and Raymond Poidevin, we know that many people realized very early on that the Soviet threat made rearma- ment inevitable. Many of those who accepted this painful necessity nevertheless disputed the terms of rearmament.

  • Competitive Effects of Vertical Restraints and Promotional Activity
    COMPETITIVE EFFECTS OF VERTICAL RESTRAINTS AND PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kirk W. Kerr, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Howard P.Marvel, Adviser James Peck Adviser Matthew S. Lewis Graduate Program in Economics ABSTRACT This dissertation empirically analyzes firm distribution and promotion strate- gies. Chapter 2 examines the distribution of products through exclusive territory arrangements by developing a model in which manufacturers, producing for uncertain retail demand, utilize exclusive territories to ensure that all demand states, and retailers serving particular demand states, are served. Here exclusive territories result in higher prices, greater consumption, and the entry of small retailers such as convenience and drug stores to the retail market. Analyzing a natural experiment afforded by Indiana’s legalization of exclusive territories in beer distribution, I estimate the effect of exclusive territories on price and con- sumption using a difference-in-differences model. I find that the legalization of exclusive territories in Indiana results in no change in prices or consumption. I also analyze a unique dataset of all licensed beer sellers in Indiana and find that exclusive territories did not cause significant entry by convenience or drug stores. In Chapter 3, I argue that retail promotions arranged by manufacturers offer researchers a window into the competitive interactions of oligopolistic manufac- turers. Utilizing scanner data on sales and promotions at a major grocery store, I estimate the long-term effect of promotions on the sales of leading brands in 10 consumer packaged-goods categories.
