  • And Type the TITLE of YOUR WORK in All Caps
    AS YOU SOW: CULTURE, AGRICULTURE, AND THE NEW DEAL by JASON MICHAEL MANTHORNE (Under the Direction of James C. Cobb) ABSTRACT This dissertation reinterprets the New Deal for agriculture, arguing that USDA New Dealers were primarily occupied with revitalizing rural life rather than with simply raising farmers’ income. More than anything, agrarian New Dealers thought that a thriving rural life would come from modernizing rural cultures. In the 1910s and 1920s, rural sociology emerged to critique the prevailing orthodoxy of “productionism,” the idea that greater agricultural efficiency was the singular solution to the “farm problem.” Rural sociologists subverted productionism and argued that the problems of rural life were largely social and cultural. Factory farms would hollow out rural communities when strong and well-populated communities were what rural people needed most. Agrarian New Dealers came out of this earlier tradition, a fact reflected in their interest in rural life and their commitment to a style of participatory democracy that harkened back to the rural communities of the nineteenth century. USDA New Dealers developed two distinct sets of programs, one for America’s “cultures of commerce” and another for its “cultures of poverty.” In the cultures of commerce—those places where farmers produced almost exclusively for the market—these experts wanted to rationalize and not simply reduce agricultural production so that most farm families could remain in agriculture. But they also wanted to rein in the cultural excesses that they believed led to soil mining and overproduction. The New Dealers’ programs for the “cultures of poverty” were more problematic. For the most part, rather than attacking the causes of poverty in places like Appalachia and the Cotton South, the USDA treated poverty as a cultural malaise.

As I waited for my supervisor to arrive and unlock the 110-year old door, I sat on the steps of 601 East Washington Street, gazing to my right at the surrounding houses. I found myself daydreaming as I did most mornings, wondering what the street looked like when the homes were first built, marveling at their grandeur, and imagining myself living in one of those masterpieces. During my three months of work, I had become completely enamored with East Washington Street. I felt the impulse to live on this tree-lined street, to walk down the slate sidewalk to my very own nineteenth century Queen Anne home.

    Vox Machinae: Phonographs and the Birth of Sonic Modernity, 1877-1930 by Jacques Vest A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Professor Howard Brick, Co-Chair Professor James Cook, Co-Chair Associate Professor John Carson Professor Charles Garrett Assistant Professor Perrin Selcer Jacques Vest [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-5891-9541 © Jacques Vest 2018 DEDICATION For Mom, Dad and Brandon. !ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I’d like to express my gratitude, first, to my dissertation committee. Charles Garrett was a remarkably generous outside reader whose enthusiasm and encouragement buoyed this project at every stage. Perrin Selcer graciously signed onto the committee mid-stream and has been an invaluable resource in thinking through the technology-related problems of this dissertation. Even though he was on the other side of the globe, John Carson made a full-time job of reining in my more exuberant historical claims and this project would not be nearly as well-articulated were it not for our many Skype conversations. These pages have also benefited enormously from committee co-chair Howard Brick’s impatience with sloppy writing and thinking. I do not, as it turns out, have much to say about Marxian commodity fetishism. I would like to extend a special thanks to my advisor and committee co-chair Professor Jay Cook. It is safe to say that Jay and I represent two opposite ends of the cognitive spectrum. Jay is a meticulous planner, efficient and even-tempered. I am often disorganized, forgetful, and impulsive.

  • The Calling of an Asian Biblical Scholar Rev10
    Paper by Federico Villanueva, 18 July 2017 For the ATA Consultation in Malang, Indonesia The Calling of an Asian Evangelical Scholar: A Biblical Scholar’s Perspective Introduction: Good evening. My task is to introduce the theme of the consultation – “The Calling of an Asian biblical scholar/theologian.” Although I will be approaching our theme from the biblical studies perspective since this is my discipline, I believe what I will share will have implications to other disciplines. This is because of our belief as evangelicals in the Bible as the foundation for our faith and practice. And therefore all theologically-related disciplines should consider the Bible. Also because, as I will argue in this paper, biblical studies is not enough; it needs the other disciplines if it is to accomplish its ultimate goal. (see below). As I begin my presentation, I would like to invite you to read with me a passage from Mark 2 on the healing of the paralytic. And many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door. And he was preaching the word to them. And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men. And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him, and when they had made an opening, they let down the bed on which the paralytic lay. And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven." Now some of the scribes were sitting there … (Mark 2:2-6 ESV)1 The Four Unnamed Men and Biblical Scholars It is not my intention to give a full exegetical analysis of this passage.

Best Editions and Preferred Formats V. Acquisition Sources VI. Collecting Levels I. Scope Sociology, the study of human social behavior, is defined by subclasses HM through HX, components of class H (Social Sciences) in the Library of Congress classification system. In broad terms, these subclasses cover: HM Sociology (General) HN Social history and conditions. Social problems. Social reform HQ The Family. Marriage. Women HS Societies: secret, benevolent, etc. HT Communities. Classes. Races HV Social pathology. Social and public welfare. Criminology HX Socialism. Communism. Anarchism Z5703 Subject Bibliography: Criminology Z161-7166 Parts dealing with Subject bibliography: Political and Social Sciences The applications and relationships of sociology to a specific subjects are generally classed with that subject, e.g., the sociology of religion classes in BL and the sociology of medicine in RA. Much of sociological research and study are interdisciplinary and may be found in subclass H (general social sciences). Given the structure of the LC classification system, this Collections Policy Statement (CPS) considers sociology primarily as treated in subclasses HM-HX, Z5703, and relevant parts of Z7161- 7166. Sociological materials in other classes are out of scope for purposes of defining collecting levels for sociology in part VI of this document. II. Research Strengths The sheer size and historical nature of LC's collections have ensured the development of great strength in all areas of sociology with respect to both general and theoretical sociology and their specific subfields, to both academic and popular sociology, and to both current and historical materials.
