  • The Vietnam War and the Third World in a Global Economy
    Free World? Free Market: The Vietnam War and the Third World in a Global Economy Charles Russo n 1919, President Woodrow Wilson arrived in France to sign the treaty ending World War I. Wilson was proposing his Fourteen Points agenda, which was an idealistic settlement for Jpeace calling for such provisions as open diplomacy, freedom of the seas, and self- determination for all colonies of greater nations. The latter point caught the attention of a young Vietnamese waiter named Nguyen Sinh Cung who desired to see the independence of his native land from Imperial France. He drafted a lengthy list of French abuses in Vietnam and went to the peace summit with the hope of presenting it to Wilson. Nguyen was turned away at the door and later realized that Wilson’s Fourteen Points would never make the transition from theory to reality. Vietnam was to remain under the rule of the French. Nguyen would eventually become known as Ho Chi Minh, and lead the Vietnamese people from colonial nile. His struggle would have a tremendous impact on the history of the United States.’ American involvement in Indochina throughout the Cold War was spurred not by the threat of Communist aggression upon democratic institutions, but instead by the need to preserve markets and resources for the development of a global economy. American postwar planning documents shed light on the notion that Vietnam and other Third World nations were designated a key role in the development of a global market. These extensive economic goals caused America to aid France in suppressing Vietnamese guerrilla forces and to eventually take up the battle and commit U.S.

  • How Terrorist Campaigns End
    Department of Economic and Political Studies University of Helsinki Finland Acta Politica 41 How Terrorist Campaigns End The Campaigns of the Rode Jeugd in the Netherlands and the Symbionese Liberation Army in the United States Leena Malkki ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be presented, with the permission of the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Helsinki, for public examination in the lecture room 5, University main building, on June 11, 2010, at 12 noon. Helsinki 2010 ISBN 978-952-10-6266-7 (pbk.) ISSN 0515-3093 Helsinki University Print Helsinki 2010 Abstract This study explores the decline of terrorism by conducting source-based case studies on two left-wing terrorist campaigns in the 1970s, those of the Rode Jeugd in the Netherlands and the Symbionese Liberation Army in the United States. The purpose of the case studies is to bring more light into the interplay of different external and internal factors in the development of terrorist campaigns. This is done by presenting the history of the two chosen campaigns as narratives from the participants’ points of view, based on interviews with participants and extensive archival material. Organizational resources and dynamics clearly influenced the course of the two campaigns, but in different ways. This divergence derives at least partly from dissimilarities in organizational design and the incentive structure. Comparison of even these two cases shows that organizations using terrorism as a strategy can differ significantly, even when they share ideological orientation, are of the same size and operate in the same time period. Theories on the dynamics of terrorist campaigns would benefit from being more sensitive to this.

  • “We Are Not a Nonproliferation Agency” Henry Kissinger’S Failed Attempt to Accommodate Nuclear Brazil, 1974–1977
    “We Are Not a Nonproliferation Agency” Henry Kissinger’s Failed Attempt to Accommodate Nuclear Brazil, 1974–1977 ✣ Carlo Patti and Matias Spektor Long before the Indian nuclear explosion of 1974 awakened the international community to the risks of proliferation in developing countries, Brazil found in the United States its major partner for the nuclear age. In the late 1930s and 1940s, a string of secret agreements had enabled the U.S. government to obtain supplies of Brazilian rare earths, thorium, and uranium for ts wartime operations. In the 1950s, Brazil was a major recipient of funds and technical assistance from U.S. laboratories under the Atoms for Peace program, and a generation of Brazilian nuclear scientists trained at U.S. universities. As the 1960s and 1970s progressed, officials in Brasília turned to the United States for support in setting up an indigenous nuclear industrial complex that they hoped would include uranium enrichment and reprocessing facilities. Brazil’s first nuclear-power reactor (Angra I) was built and fueled under a Westing- house contract endorsed by U.S. authorities.1 Nevertheless, the Indian test in 1974 quickly shifted the dynamics in Washington and across the West, with significant repercussions for the prospects of proliferation in the developing world. To the surprise of Brazilian officials, key decision-makers in the State Department, the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency (ACDA), and representatives in the U.S. Congress put forward new arguments for the application of tighter regulations to the trans- fer of sensitive nuclear technologies, and a core group of Western countries set 1.

  • Campus Cons and the New Mccarthyism
    CHAPTER 3 CAMPUS CONS AND THE NEW MCCARTHYISM DAVID HOROWITZ’S LONG CRUSADE At the 2005 College Republican National Convention, David Horowitz, arguably one of the most notorious and caustic pugilists of the culture wars, brought down the proverbial house by asserting that: “Universities are a base of the left. Universities are a base for terrorism.” He also informed his obsequious audience that the “future of the free peoples of the world” depended on the “Republican Party” and ultimately on the youthful army of right-wingers in attendance.452 Such bombast was hardly new terrain for Horowitz who, in late October of 2001, spent three hours speaking to the deleterious Dr. Laura Schlessinger about “campus leftists” who “hate America more than terrorists; this from a man who claims to yearn for ‘serious’ dialogue.453 Of course, long before 9/11, Horowitz had already amassed an impressive fortune (with generous funding from the Scaife, Bradley, Olin, Smith-Richardson/Randolph and other foundations) maligning liberals and leftists who allegedly controlled the media, the entertainment industry, and the levers of power at the nation’s institutions of higher learning. At the age of 71, he now controls a sizable empire under the rubric of the David Horowitz Freedom Center (formerly known as the Center for the Study of Popular Culture) dedicated to advancing a far right agenda. Before exploring his corporate-funded kingdom and a few of its various projects and campaigns, it is worth briefly chronicling Horowitz’s transformation from a militant leftist to an authoritarian firebrand and Republican strategist. Horowitz was born in 1939 to a Jewish family in Forest Hills, New York.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. In this study, beliefs and convictions are delineated by the extent to which the belief is also operationalized in policy; that is, a conviction is a belief that has been applied in a substantive manner. For example, as we will see in chapter 6 that deals with Reagan’s cognetic narrative, he had a belief that abortion was abhorrent and immoral, but he had a competing conviction that it was not a government’s role to impose limits on freedom of choice. In effect, his conviction about limited government overrode his belief about abortion from becoming a conviction. For members of the Religious Right, for whom prohibiting abortion was clearly a conviction, Reagan managed to assuage them with rhetoric, but the record shows that he did not act in a substantive manner. 2.

    Candid Conversations: Behind the Scenes of the Playboy Interview, 1962-2011 A thesis presented to the faculty of the Scripps College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science Ashley C. Carnifax August 2011 © 2011 Ashley C. Carnifax. All Rights Reserved. This thesis titled Candid Conversations: Behind the Scenes of the Playboy Interview, 1962-2011 by ASHLEY C.

Sweeney Professor of Journalism Scott Titsworth Interim Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT CARNIFAX, ASHLEY C., M.S., August 2011, Journalism Candid Conversations: Behind the Scenes of the Playboy Interview, 1962-2011 Director of Thesis: Michael S. Sweeney This paper uses content analysis, historical research and interviews with journalists to examine the subjects of the Playboy Interview and the interview’s role in shaping journalism and popular culture. The content analysis of 569 Playboy Interviews showed that the majority of interview subjects were white males, and that the television and film industry was the most represented profession. Interviews with Playboy editors and writers were used to explain the process of selecting these subjects, as well as to determine which interviews were most memorable to those who wrote and edited them. Finally, historical analysis showed that the early interviews were not acknowledged by popular media, but rather, were written about decades after they took place. Since then, interviews with political figures, such as Jimmy Carter and Jesse Ventura, have been written about more frequently by newspapers and magazines.
