Air University Review: May-June 1976, Vol XXVII, No.4 A I R U N I VE R S ITY review MAY-JUNE 1976 The Professional Journal of the United States Air Force from the editor's aerie Lieutenant General John W. Pauly's "Thread of Doctrine" constitutes what we believe to be a solid platform for continuing dialogue on Air Force doctrine. As an offspring of the twentieth century and its technological revolution, the Air Force has faced a formidable challenge in developing doctrine and tactics to keep pace with the quantum leaps in hardware capability. We mean for Air University Review to contribute to this process by providing a forum where conflicting ideas may help refine and sharpen evolving doctrine. Our cover graphically reflects General Pauly's ". yesterday's lessons learned, applied to tomorrow's expectations." In an article both profound and whimsical, Hoyt W. Huggins speculates on the present and future role of computers in the conduct of human affairs. Anyone concerned with the impact of computers in the manage- ment process will find that Huggins offers some stimulating—even offbeat -insights. Among letters that cross the Editor's desk from time to time are those inquiring if the Review would be interested in book reviews or articles from sources outside the Air Force. The answer is an emphatic yes. Al- though the majority of our contributors have traditionally been active duty or retired Air Force personnel, we have always welcomed articles from anyone who has something significant to say. Aspiring authors need not feel that their opinions must conform to what they perceive to be the offi- cial policy of the Air Force. We welcome differing points of view so long as they are well supported. Potential book reviewers interested in receiving a book for review should drop us a card or letter indicating their area of competence. De- spite the fact that we have regular reliable reviewers, we always welcome new talent and fresh points of view. Since our authors often express pleasant surprise when they receive a check for their articles, perhaps it is worth mentioning again that we do offer modest sums for articles accepted for publication. The only exception applies to Air Force or other federal personnel whose articles were written during normal duty hours. At the end of February the Review lost one of its most capable and dedicated staff members and the Air Force an employee of long-standing tenure. M iss Genie Cory, Copy Editor for the Review since the Quarterly Review days back in 1957, started her federal employment in 1927, the year in which Charles Lindbergh flew the Spirit of St. Louis solo across the At- lantic. Her 48 years and four months' continuous federal service establishes a record in Air University not likely to be broken. Miss Cory's painstaking care to detail and her wealth of Air Force experience will be greatly missed, but we delight in her accepting a retirement so richly deserved. Ave atque vale.

Its purpose is to present innovative thinking and stimulate dialogue concerning Air Force doctrine, strategy, tactics, and related national defense matters. The Review should not be construed as representing policies of the Department of Defense, the Air Force, or Air Uni­ versity. Rather, the contents reflect the authors' ideas and do not necessarily bear official sanction. Thoughtful and informed contributions are always welcomed.

  • Eurosphere Or Anglosphere? Canadian Public Opinion on Brexit and the Future of Transatlantic Relations
    Canadian Journal of Political Science (2021), 1–22 doi:10.1017/S0008423921000470 RESEARCH ARTICLE/ÉTUDE ORIGINALE Eurosphere or Anglosphere? Canadian Public Opinion on Brexit and the Future of Transatlantic Relations Achim Hurrelmann1* , Frédéric Mérand2 and Stephen E. White1 1Carleton University, Department of Political Science, 1125 Colonel By Drive, Ottawa, ON K1S 5B6 and 2Université de Montréal, Département de science politique, 3150, rue Jean-Brillant, Montréal, QC H3T 1N8 *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract Close relations with Europe, especially but not only with the United Kingdom, have long been a consensual tenet of Canadian foreign policy, which has supported European inte- gration since the 1970s. The UK’s withdrawal from the European Union threatens to upset this consensus. While Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has consistently cast Brexit in a negative light, Conservative leaders Andrew Scheer and Erin O’Toole have commented positively on the UK’s leaving the EU. Did their polarized views resonate in the popula- tion? To answer this question, this article analyzes the results of an original survey of vot- ing-age Canadians. Findings show a strong degree of correspondence between positions expressed in party discourse and preferences in the Canadian population. This raises the possibility that the difference between two models of transatlantic relations, which we call Eurosphere and Anglosphere, could emerge as a new fault line in Canadian foreign policy. Résumé Maintenir des relations étroites avec l’Europe, en particulier mais pas seulement avec le Royaume-Uni, constitue un principe consensuel de la politique étrangère canadienne, qui soutient l’intégration européenne depuis les années 1970.

  • Section: LITERATURE Iulian Boldea, Dumitru-Mircea Buda, Cornel
    Iulian Boldea, Dumitru-Mircea Buda, Cornel Sigmirean (Editors) MEDIATING GLOBALIZATION: Identities in Dialogue Arhipelag XXI Press, 2018 EVE BETWEEN TWO WORLDS Anca B ădulescu Lecturer, Phd, ”Transilvania” University of Bra șov Abstract:This paper intends to pinpoint major issues in Elif Shafak’s “ Three Daughters of Eve”: the rising tension between strict Muslim faith and strict skepticism, the precarious state of Turkish politics as opposed to a seemingly liberal Western mentality, the changing position of women in Islam but also the sexual ambiguities of college life. Moreover, the paper aims at demonstrating that “the Sinner, the Believer and the Confused” are the different selves of the protagonist of the novel. At the same time, the author seems to signal a major clash between the two civilizations which, ultimately, cannot be reconciled. Keywords: faith, doubt, Muslim, skepticism, confusion When asked why she was writing her novels in English when Turkish was her native tongue, Elif Shafak answered that she believed it was “an irrational choice, if it was a choice at all.” Also, trying to find a logical explanation, she thinks that she has “escaped into this new continent.” Elif Shafak was born in France where her father was studying, lived for a while in Spain and the United States. She currently “commutes” between London and Istanbul: “I sent myself into perpetual exile, carving an additional zone of existence, building a new home, brick by brick, in this other land.” And this other land is not necessarily Britain, but the English language which has fascinated her ever since she started learning this language, at the age of ten.

  • NM. You Can Be Considered One of Today's Most Important Dracula Scholars, Especially for Studies Such As Dracula & Company
    Vol. 5, no. 1 (2010) Category: Interview NM. You can be considered one of today's most important Dracula scholars, especially for studies such as Dracula & Company. The Appeal of the North in Bram Stoker's Novels (1998), Transylvania and the Balkans as Multiethnic Regions in the Works of Bram Stoker (1996), A Sea Landscape with Victorian Ladies. Three Essays on Dracula (1995), or In the Dragon's Labyrinth. An Introduction to Dracula (1992). But, how did an esteemed university teacher of Romanian and Romance linguistics, indeed the disciple of Iorgu Iordan, develop an interest in Dracula? And why is Dracula still so popular today? ML. Thank you for the kind appreciation. I have the deep convinction that a genuine, really good scholar of Bram Stoker's most famous novel Dracula should investigate the whole literary production of this interesting writer, and connect the novel with his other narratives, both short and long. It is not entirely my case, I must confess, although I tried to compare Dracula with other two novels of his, i.e. The Lady of the Shroud and The Jewel of Seven Stars. However, I can be excused, because my main research subjects - as you mentioned - are not English literature or literature of the Victorian age. I did not begin my Dracula studies reading in English, but in Romanian and Italian. After that beginning, I was obliged not to avoid the English language, therefore my initial, very poor knowledge of this language improved and now I am able to read, understand, and study essays as well as works of fictional literature.

Over the past two decades, populist parties have steadily increased their support, entering most national parliaments across the continent. In many countries, they have even taken over the levers of government. An unprecedented populist belt now covers a big and strategically important stretch of Central and Eastern Europe, from the Baltic Sea all the way to the Aegean. Europe’s political landscape is undergoing the biggest transformation since the end of the Cold War. Over the past two decades, populist parties have steadily increased their support, entering most national parliaments across the continent. In many countries, they have even taken over the levers of government. An unprecedented populist belt now covers a big and strategically important stretch of Central and Eastern Europe, from the Baltic Sea all the way to the Aegean. 3 This report describes the key components of this populist surge and assesses how it has allowed populists to transform the continent’s politics. The rise of the populists has already changed the social and economic policies pursued by many countries, created new tensions between nation-states in Europe, and begun to put pressure on democratic institutions in a variety of countries that were once seen as consolidated democracies.
