  • ABSTRACT CHAMBERS, CHERYL. Institutional
    ABSTRACT CHAMBERS, CHERYL. Institutional Racism: Is Law Used as a Tool to Perpetuate Racial Inequality? (Under the direction of Richard Della Fave.) Law is a mechanism we use to instigate social change and bring about equality. It is also the tool that has been used to institutionalize, legitimize and perpetuate inequality. In the past beliefs of racial inferiority and savagery may have resulted in legislation designed to perpetuate a group’s subordinate status. Laws and public policy are created within an historical and political context. Is there a connection between social climate and the advent of federal drug legislation? In this research, conflict and racial inequality perspectives are applied to the role of the economy and politics to foster understanding of opium laws in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937, and the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 and the contexts from which they emerged. It is hypothesized that an historical analysis of the Congressional discussions surrounding these drug laws will illustrate that competition and threat, economic and/or political, were present prior to the enactment of the laws. Analyses indicate that while economic and to a limited extent political competition between Chinese immigrants and white Americans affected the passage of the opium laws, economic and political competition had little effect on the passage of the Marihuana Tax Act or the Anti-Drug Abuse Act. While vilification of and anti-minority sentiment during the opium legislation was clear and recognizable, it was almost non-existent during the marijuana legislation, and present in only nuances in the 1980’s.

  • Minimized the Strategic National Stockpile: the $5.3 Trillion Question for Pandemic Preparedness Raised by the Ventilator Fiasco †
    How “Maximizing Shareholder Value” Minimized the Strategic National Stockpile: The $5.3 Trillion Question for Pandemic Preparedness Raised by the Ventilator Fiasco † William Lazonick and Matt Hopkins* Working Paper No. 127 July 21st, 2020 ABSTRACT With just 4.2 percent of the world’s population, the United States had, as of July 21, 2020, 26.0 percent of its confirmed Covid-19 cases and 23.1 percent of its deaths. The magnitude of the tragedy raises the critically important counterfactual question of how the United States as a nation would have fared had there been competent and committed political leadership in place when, during January 2020, intelligence indicating the severity of the unfolding pandemic became available. A partial answer to this question lies in identifying the organizational and technological capabilities to develop, produce, and deliver “countermeasures”—personal protective equipment (PPE), ventilators, diagnostic tests, therapies, and vaccines—that a prepared federal administration would have been able to mobilize to respond to the pandemic. Main repositories of the necessary † The Institute for New Economic Thinking provided the main funding for this research.

  • Modernism in Bartholomew County, Indiana, from 1942
    NPS Form 10-900 USDI/NPS NRHP Registration Form (Rev. 8-86) OMB No. 1024-0018 MODERNISM IN BARTHOLOMEW COUNTY, INDIANA, FROM 1942 Page 1 United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form E. STATEMENT OF HISTORIC CONTEXTS INTRODUCTION This National Historic Landmark Theme Study, entitled “Modernism in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Design and Art in Bartholomew County, Indiana from 1942,” is a revision of an earlier study, “Modernism in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Design and Art in Bartholomew County, Indiana, 1942-1999.” The initial documentation was completed in 1999 and endorsed by the Landmarks Committee at its April 2000 meeting. It led to the designation of six Bartholomew County buildings as National Historic Landmarks in 2000 and 2001 First Christian Church (Eliel Saarinen, 1942; NHL, 2001), the Irwin Union Bank and Trust (Eero Saarinen, 1954; NHL, 2000), the Miller House (Eero Saarinen, 1955; NHL, 2000), the Mabel McDowell School (John Carl Warnecke, 1960; NHL, 2001), North Christian Church (Eero Saarinen, 1964; NHL, 2000) and First Baptist Church (Harry Weese, 1965; NHL, 2000). No fewer than ninety-five other built works of architecture or landscape architecture by major American architects in Columbus and greater Bartholomew County were included in the study, plus many renovations and an extensive number of unbuilt projects. In 2007, a request to lengthen the period of significance for the theme study as it specifically relates to the registration requirements for properties, from 1965 to 1973, was accepted by the NHL program and the original study was revised to define a more natural cut-off date with regard to both Modern design trends and the pace of Bartholomew County’s cycles of new construction.

    Indiana Law Review Volume 52 2019 Number 1 SYMPOSIUM HOOSIER BRIDESMAIDS MARGO M. LAMBERT* A. CHRISTOPHER BRYANT** Indiana proudly proclaims itself the “Crossroads of America.”1 While some northeast-corridor cynics might deride the boast as a paraphrase for flyover country, there is no denying the political significance of the Hoosier State’s geographical and cultural centrality. As one of Indiana’s most celebrated historians has observed, “[b]y the beginning of the twentieth century Indiana was often cited as the most typical of American states, perhaps because Hoosiers in this age of transition generally resisted radical change and were able usually to balance moderate change with due attention to the continuities of life and culture.”2 Throughout the Gilded Age, elections in the state were so closely fought that the winning party rarely claimed more than slimmest majority.3 At the time, Indiana tended to favor Republicans over Democrats, but the races were close with Democrats claiming their share of victories.4 During these years, voter turnout remained high in presidential elections, with Indiana ranging from the eightieth to the ninetieth percentiles, no doubt a product of the closeness of the contests. Such voter turnout substantially exceeded that typical of surrounding states.5 Hoosiers liked to politick. The state’s high voter participation may also have been, in some part, attributable to its relaxed voting laws for adult males during the nineteenth * Associate Professor of History, University of Cincinnati Blue Ash College. ** Rufus King Professor of Constitutional Law, University of Cincinnati College of Law. The authors, proud Hoosiers by birth and Buckeyes by professional opportunity, thank first and foremost Brad Boswell for entrusting us with the opportunity to open the March 29, 2018 Symposium.
