Les Républicains, De Dwight D. Eisenhower À George W « LES RÉPUBLICAINS, DE DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER À GEORGE W. BUSH (1952-2008) » BIBLIOGRAPHIE Cette bibliographie sélective se compose de rubriques thématiques et biographiques constituées principalement d’ouvrages universitaires. Elle comporte aussi deux rubriques présentant, de manière non exhaustive, des « éléments du canon conservateur » d’une part, des « mémoires et témoignages » d’autre part. Elle signale enfin, à l’attention des étudiants et des préparateurs, un ensemble de « textes polémiques » destinés au grand public américain. Ces documents, souvent très partisans, témoignent de la vivacité du débat politique ; c’est la raison pour laquelle ils ont été retenus. Dans les rubriques 1 à 13, les ouvrages précédés de deux étoiles (**) sont considérés comme fondamentaux. Ceux qui sont précédés d’une étoile (*) sont importants.

  • Russian Government Hackers Penetrated DNC, Stole Opposition Research on Trump
    Russian government hackers penetrated DNC, stole opposition research on Trump Russian government hackers caught in DNC's networks Play Video 1:26 Russian goverment hackers penetrated the Democratic National Committee and had access to the DNC network for about a year, but all were expelled earlier in June. (Jhaan Elker/The Washington Post) • National By Ellen Nakashima Security June 14 Russian government hackers penetrated the computer network of the Democratic National Committee and gained access to the entire database of opposition research on GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, according to committee officials and security experts who responded to the breach. The intruders so thoroughly compromised the DNC’s system that they also were able to read all email and chat traffic, said DNC officials and the security experts. The intrusion into the DNC was one of several targeting American political organizations. The networks of presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were also targeted by Russian spies, as were the computers of some Republican political action committees, U.S. officials said. But details on those cases were not available. [Russia denies DNC hack and says maybe someone ‘forgot the password’ ] “I completely rule out a possibility that the [Russian] government or the government bodies have been involved in this,” Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin’s spokesman, told the Reuters news agency in Moscow. Trump captures the nation’s attention on the campaign trail View Photos The Republican candidate continues to dominate the presidential contest. Some of the hackers had access to the DNC network for about a year, but all were expelled over the past weekend in a major computer cleanup campaign, the committee officials and experts said.

Using portraits of Mrs. Nieman’s mother and father as references, he worked with cut pages from Nieman Reports and from the Foundation’s archival material to create this likeness. About the portrait on page 6: Alexandra Garcia (left), NF ’13, an Emmy Award-winning multimedia journalist with The Washington Post, based her acrylic portrait with collage on the photograph of Agnes Wahl Nieman standing with her husband, Lucius Nieman, in the pressroom of The Milwaukee Journal. The photograph was likely taken in the mid-1920s when Mrs. Nieman would have been in her late 50s or 60s. Garcia took inspiration from her Fellowship and from the Foundation’s archives to present a younger depiction of Mrs. Nieman. Video and images of the portraits’ creation can be seen at http://nieman.harvard.edu/agnes. A Nieman lasts a year ~ a Nieman lasts a lifetime SUMMER/FALL 2013 VOL.

  • AMERICAN FRANCOPHOBIA TAKES a NEW TURN Justin Vaïsse
    03-Vaïsse 6/14/03 4:37 PM Page 17 AMERICAN FRANCOPHOBIA TAKES A NEW TURN Justin Vaïsse Center on the United States and France, Brookings Institution At the dawn of the 21st century, something new may be happening in the heartland of America: the spread of a negative image of France.1 Traditionally, a mostly positive image of France linked to its reputation for good food, high fashion, and sophisticated tourism, coexisted with a somewhat negative image in some elite circles. But the most important factor was definitely a lack of knowledge and the fact that above all, indifference reigned supreme. (See Body-Gendrot in this issue.) “Francophobia” (not a very satisfactory term2) does not constitute rational criticism of France. It expresses a systematic bias against this country, the way anti-Americanism does against the United States. It is based on a set of stereo- types, prejudices, insults, and ready-made judgments. Moreover, like anti- Americanism it deliberately conflates what a country is and what it does. Negative stereotypes about personal characteristics of the French, (for exam- ple, they are lazy, immoral, or arrogant) are combined with stereotypes about French society (elitist, unwilling to modernize, or anti-American) and stereo- types about French foreign policy (allegedly based on purely commercial inter- ests or nostalgia for past glory) to produce a complete, if sometimes self-contradictory, discourse of disparagement, what Jean-Philippe Mathy calls in this issue a “system of Francophobia,” a web of loosely related clichés that can be mobilized at will—especially, of course, when a diplomatic crisis erupts.

He makes this Affidavit to comply with the Court’s February 15, 2012 Order. “Plaintiff is ORDERED to file a status report with the Court by August 15, 2012.” 2. This August 15, 2012 Status Affidavit is a supplement to the facts set forth in the plaintiff’s December 14, 2011 Corrected Affidavit and February 3, 2012 letter to the Court. A. The failure of the December 14, 2011 quiet settlement plan and the modified plan based on the Ninth Circuit’s August 7, 2012 Al-Haramain holding re § 1806 of the FISA 3. The plaintiff reports that the proposed prosecution plan as explained in the December 14, 2011 Robert II v CIA and DOJ Corrected Affidavit § WW, has failed. However, on August 7, 2012 the Ninth Circuit decided Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation v. Obama, __F.3d __(9th Cir. 2012). That decision held that Congress waived the sovereign immunity defense when it enacted Section 1806 the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), 50 U.S.C. § 1806. Thus, the plaintiff will renew his prosecution efforts to secure NARA OGIS facilitation services to secure in 2012 a quiet settlement of this FOIA action without further burdening the 1 court.

  • The Need for a Revolution
    1 From science to education : the need for a revolution Pierre Léna Academia Europeae, Erasmus Lecture 2005 Abstract. Primary education for all seems on the way to be achieved throughout the world within a couple of decades, despite the deep unequalities and lack of resources which remain. Science education at an elementary level, during the first years of school, should now be considered as essential to the cultural, civic, ethical, economical and technical development of humans and societies, in a context of globalisation, than the triad « reading-writing-counting » has been during the two last centuries. Yet, the current pedagogy which often caracterises the science lessons, in developed countries as well as in developing ones when they exist at all, is quite unsatisfactory, as it is more transferring knowledge of facts than scientific literacy, and misses the goal of capacity building. New developments in the last decade, based on inquiry pedagogy and often proposed or led by science Academies, have demonstrated another way to communicate science, to involve and train teachers. In France, United-States or Sweden, but also in China, Brazil or Egypt, the results of this new approach lead to great hopes for transformations, fully supported by science Academies. In Europe, a recently implemented EU program aims at similar goals, in the spirit of the Lisbon objectifs toward a society of knowledge. 1. Introduction Some decrease of interest for science careers in developed countries, the role of innovation for the economic and military ambitions of nations, and the growing questioning addressed by the public to the perspectives offered by discoveries and technologies are serious 2 issues which today are debated inside and outside the science community.

  • A Second Chance for Barack Obama: a Sarajevo Moment
    POLICY PAPER European issues n°265 A Second Chance for Barack th 29 January 2013 Obama: a Sarajevo Moment Abstract : Simon Serfaty Barack’s Obama re-election in November 2012 was convincing. Yet, the ambivalence shown by many of his most loyal supporters – with less enthusiastic crowds, a smaller margin of victory, and a less serene tone than four years ago – point to the disappointment of a large part of Ame- rican public opinion. Still, Obama learned a great deal over the past four years. And what he learned augurs well for his ability to assert his place in history with the audacity which he had initially claimed [1]. It is in this non-partisan context that his triumph War had forced Truman to give his vision the global should be examined. At this particularly difficult time it dimension which he had previously rejected.
