    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.

Alan Grubb Dr. Michael Meng ABSTRACT The Upper Piedmont of South Carolina is home to a disproportionate number of Army ROTC units and citations for heroism in battle. Within the region, the story of Spartanburg, South Carolina’s Wofford College provides a unique perspective on the idea of a southern military tradition. In 1917, Wofford’s president Henry Nelson Snyder proved an avid supporter of the American war effort. His support culminated in the formation of an ROTC detachment on Wofford’s campus in 1919.

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.

    One Hundred Seventeenth Congress of the United States of America

    H. R. 3642 One Hundred Seventeenth Congress of the United States of America AT THE FIRST SESSION Begun and held at the City of Washington on Sunday, the third day of January, two thousand and twenty-one An Act To award a Congressional gold medal to the 369th Infantry Regiment, commonly known as the ‘‘Harlem Hellfighters’’, in recognition of their bravery and out- standing service during World War I. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Harlem Hellfighters Congres- sional Gold Medal Act’’. SEC. 2. FINDINGS. Congress finds the following: (1) When the United States officially entered World War I in April 1917, the Armed Forces were still segregated, even though African-American soldiers had served and distinguished themselves in every war since the Revolutionary War, and even the Colonial Wars preceding the American Revolution. (2) After several years of advocacy and debate, in 1916 the State of New York authorized the recruitment of the 15th New York National Guard Regiment, which was called to Fed- eral service on July 25, 1917, soon after arriving for training at Camp Whitman, New York. (3) The 15th completed its basic military practice training at Camp Whitman, New York. (4) To receive combat training, the 15th reported, on October 8, 1917, to Camp Wadsworth, in Spartanburg, South Carolina, where it experienced many incidents of racial discrimination. (5) Consequently, the government agreed to remove the 15th from Camp Wadsworth, but, instead of receiving further training, the regiment began preparing for deployment to France in November.
