    4. IOWA Iowa Is the State Famous for Holding Presidential Caucuses Rather Than a Presidential Primary. There Is a Good Reason F

    4. IOWA Iowa is the state famous for holding presidential caucuses rather than a presidential primary. There is a good reason for that. The state of New Hampshire has a tradition of holding the first presidential primary. In fact, New Hampshire has a law requiring that the New Hampshire primary be one week before the presidential primary of any other state. By scheduling caucuses rather than a primary, Iowa is able to hold its caucuses ahead of New Hampshire and thereby escape the political ire of New Hampshirites. Iowa also thus prevents New Hampshire from scheduling its primary one week ahead of the presidential caucuses in Iowa. That is what that famous New Hampshire law would require if Iowa held a primary. It was in 1972 that Iowa first scheduled its "First In The Nation" presidential caucuses. Four years later, in 1976, the Iowa caucuses were propelled to major importance when Jimmy Carter, a little-known former governor of Georgia, devoted virtually a year of his life to campaigning in Iowa. Carter's surprise victory in the Iowa caucuses made him the instant front-runner for the Democratic nomination. It was an advantage which Carter exploited so well he was eventually elected president of the United States. But there is also a downside to the Iowa caucuses for presidential hopefuls. Iowa can be the burial ground for a candidacy instead of the launching pad. That is what happened to U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts in 1980 when he challenged incumbent President Jimmy Carter for the Democratic nomination. President Carter polled 59 percent of the Iowa caucuses vote to 31 percent for Kennedy.

    Stoicism at War: from Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius to James Stockdale

    Konrad Banicki Jagiellonian University, Cracow, Poland Institute of Applied Psychology STOICISM AT WAR: FROM EPICTETUS AND MARCUS AURELIUS TO JAMES STOCKDALE Abstract The chapter is devoted to the analysis of ancient Stoic philosophy as a source of resil- ience for soldiers. Firstly, some historical cases are investigated, from a Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius to more recent instances from Vietnam and Iraq. Secondly, in turn, the Epictetus’ distinction between the controllable and the uncontrollable is introduced with the focus on the prescription to assign value only to the former as the Stoic source of resilience. Finally, some further questions are briefly addressed including the ones concerning the sources of the Stoicism’s appeal to the soldiers, its more particular ap- plications as well as the potential drawbacks of the Stoic resilience. Key words: resilience, stoicism, soldiers, Marcus Aurelius, James Stockdale Stoicyzm na wojnie. Od Epikteta i Marka Aureliusza do Jamesa Stockdale’a Streszczenie Rozdział poświęcony jest analizie starożytnej filozofii stoickiej jako źródła sprężysto- ści psychicznej (resilience) dla żołnierzy. Po przedstawieniu historycznych przykładów żołnierskich odwołań do stoicyzmu, od rzymskiego cesarza Marka Aureliusza do uczest- ników wojen w Wietnamie i Iraku, wprowadzona zostaje stoicka koncepcja Epikteta. W szczególności sformułowane przez niego rozróżnienie na to, co podlega naszej kon- troli, oraz to, co jej nie podlega, a także nacisk na przypisywanie wartości jedynie temu pierwszemu zostają przedstawione
