  • Cultural Anthropology Through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-Based Sentiment
    Cultural Anthropology through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-based Sentiment Peter A. Gloor, Joao Marcos, Patrick M. de Boer, Hauke Fuehres, Wei Lo, Keiichi Nemoto [email protected] MIT Center for Collective Intelligence Abstract In this paper we study the differences in historical World View between Western and Eastern cultures, represented through the English, the Chinese, Japanese, and German Wikipedia. In particular, we analyze the historical networks of the World’s leaders since the beginning of written history, comparing them in the different Wikipedias and assessing cultural chauvinism. We also identify the most influential female leaders of all times in the English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese Wikipedia. As an additional lens into the soul of a culture we compare top terms, sentiment, emotionality, and complexity of the English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German Wikinews. 1 Introduction Over the last ten years the Web has become a mirror of the real world (Gloor et al. 2009). More recently, the Web has also begun to influence the real world: Societal events such as the Arab spring and the Chilean student unrest have drawn a large part of their impetus from the Internet and online social networks. In the meantime, Wikipedia has become one of the top ten Web sites1, occasionally beating daily newspapers in the actuality of most recent news. Be it the resignation of German national soccer team captain Philipp Lahm, or the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 in the Ukraine by a guided missile, the corresponding Wikipedia page is updated as soon as the actual event happened (Becker 2012.

  • Chapter 21: a United Body of Action, 1900-1916
    Chapter 21: A United Body of Action, 1900-1916 Overview The progressives, as they called themselves, concerned themselves with finding solutions to the problems created by industrialization, urbanization, and immigration. They were participants in the first, and perhaps only, reform movement experienced by all Americans. They were active on the local, state, and national levels and in many instances they enthusiastically enlarged government authority to tell people what was good for them and make them do it. Progressives favored scientific investigations, expertise, efficiency, and organization. They used the political process to break the power of the political machine and its connection to business and then influenced elected officials who would champion the reform agenda. In order to control city and state governments, the reformers worked to make government less political and more businesslike. The progressives found their champion in Theodore Roosevelt. Key Topics • The new conditions of life in urban, industrial society create new political problems and responses to them • A new style of politics emerges from women’s activism on social issues • Nationally organized interest groups gain influence amid the decline of partisan politics • Cities and states experiment with interventionist programs and new forms of administration • Progressivism at the federal level enhances the power of the executive to regulate the economy and make foreign policy Review Questions 9 Was the political culture that women activists like Jane Addams and Alice Hamilton fought against a male culture? 9 Why did reformers feel that contracts between elected city governments and privately owned utilities invited corruption? 9 What were the Oregon System and the Wisconsin Idea? 9 Were the progressives’ goals conservative or radical? How about their strategies? 9 Theodore Roosevelt has been called the first modern president.

Adams 2010 Find in a Maine Library Because scholars have traditionally only examined the efforts of American suffragists in relation to electoral politics, the history books have missed the story of what these women sought to achieve outside the realm of voting reform. This book tells the story of how these women made an indelible mark on American history in fields ranging from education to art, science, publishing, and social activism. Sisters: The Lives of America's Suffragists Jean H. Baker 2005 Find in a Maine Library Presents an overview of the period between the 1840s and the 1920s that saw numerous victories for women's rights, focusing on Lucy Stone, Susan B.
