  • Commandant's Annual Report, 1971-1972
    ANNUAL REPORT 1971-1972 The Judge Advocate General's School U. S. Army Charlottesville, Virginia 22901 . , SHOULDER SLEEVE INSIGNIA APPROVED FOR JAG SCHOOL Under the provisions of paragraphs 14-16, AR 670-5, the Com­ mandant received approval on 21 January 1972 for a shoulder sleeve insignia for uniform wear by Staff, Faculty, and Advanced Class personnel of The Judge Advocate General's School from the Chief of Heraldry, Institute of Heraldry, U.S. Army. The patch design is adapted from the School's distinctive crest. It is em­ blazoned across a shield of traditional blue. Its lighted torch symbolizes the illumination of intellect and leadership supplied by the School. The torch is surmounted by a gold open laurel wreath, below a gold sword and pen, with points downward, the tip ends of the wreath passing under the sword blade and pen quill FOREWORD The Judge Advocate General's School soon begins its twenty­ second year on the Grounds of the University of Virginia. In these years "the Home of the Military Lawyer" has consistently sought to serve the Army Lawyer in the field-by preparing him in our resident courses, keeping him supplied with the most recent legal information in a clear and concise form, and providing good quality continuing legal education programs both in the resident short courses and in our nonresident extension courses. But our active lawyer is only one part of our Corps and the School has likewise become the home for the lawyers in the Army Reserve and the Army and Air National Guard-the other two vital parts of our Army.

Farrigan © 2005 Tracey L. Farrigan Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2005 The thesis of Tracey L. Farrigan has been reviewed and approved* by the following: Amy K. Glasmeier Professor of Geography and Regional Planning Thesis Advisor Chair of Committee Adam Rose Professor of Geography and Environmental Economics Martin Shields Associate Professor of Agricultural and Regional Economics Chris Benner Assistant Professor of Geography Roger Downs Professor of Geography Head of the Department of Geography *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ABSTRACT One of the greatest methodological fallacies of the last half century in social research is the belief that science is a particular set of techniques; it is, rather, a state of mind, or attitude, and the organizational condition which allow that attitude to be expressed. (Dingwall 1992: 212, quoted in Lavalli 2000: 114) Realist philosophy reflects the state of mind and realist methodology the organizational condition that allows for an open and sophisticated examination of the complexities of the social world. Yet, realist methodologies are underdeveloped and poorly understood in the field of geography, which limits geographers’ ability to translate their dynamic theories of the social world into as equally dynamic research in practice. This study emphasizes the need for greater investment in the development, communication, and application of realist approaches by demonstrating the value of this approach to the study of persistent poverty.

  • The Effect of Assassinations on Institutions and War
    Hit or Miss? The Effect of Assassinations on Institutions and War By Benjamin F. Jones and Benjamin A. Olken* Assassinations are a persistent feature of the political landscape. Using a new data set of assassination attempts on all world leaders from 1875 to 2004, we exploit inherent randomness in the success or failure of assassination attempts to identify assassination’s effects. We find that, on average, successful assassinations of autocrats produce sustained moves toward democracy. We also find that assassinations affect the intensity of small-scale conflicts. The results document a contemporary source of institutional change, inform theories of conflict, and show that small sources of randomness can have a pronounced effect on history. “Assassination has never changed the history of the world.” - Benjamin Disraeli, 1865, on the death of Abraham Lincoln Assassinations of prominent political leaders have occurred throughout history. From Julius Caesar to Abraham Lincoln, from John F. Kennedy to Yitzhak Rabin, many leaders have met violent ends – and many others have escaped assassination narrowly. Had Hitler lingered 13 minutes longer in a Munich beer hall in 1939, he would likely have been killed by a waiting bomb. Whether or not objectionable, or illegal,1 assassination and assassination attempts are a persistent feature of the political landscape. In fact, as we will show below, a national leader has been assassinated in nearly two of every three years since 1950. * Jones: Kellogg School of Management, 2001 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60614 (email: [email protected]); Olken: MIT Department of Economics, 50 Memorial Drive, Cambridge, MA 02142 (email: [email protected]).

  • Gender, Globalization, and Cultural Representation in Nigerian Beauty Pageants
    Contesting Nationalisms: Gender, Globalization, and Cultural Representation in Nigerian Beauty Pageants By Oluwakemi Monsurat Balogun A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology and in the Designated Emphasis in Women, Gender, and Sexuality in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Raka Ray, Chair Professor Paola Bacchetta Professor Ann Swidler Professor Barrie Thorne Professor Michael Watts Fall 2012 2012 Copyright Oluwakemi Monsurat Balogun Abstract Contesting Nationalisms: Gender, Globalization, and Cultural Representation in Nigerian Beauty Pageants by Oluwakemi Monsurat Balogun Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology and in the Designated Emphasis in Women, Gender, and Sexuality University of California, Berkeley Professor Raka Ray, Chair Over the last five decades, Nigeria has moved from being a nation enjoying its new post-colonial independence to a nation self-consciously placed within the international political economy. In this dissertation, I show how the complexity and tensions of this shift have helped shape, and are reflected in the Nigerian beauty pageant industry. Drawing on a case study of three beauty pageants, two national and one international, I compare the production, symbolism, and political controversies surrounding each pageant and the way it represents the Nigerian nation. I use these cases to argue that national identity exists at multiple levels and is constructed through and towards both national and international audiences. Organizers, contestants, corporate sponsors, fans and opposition groups manage and present the nation through pageants. They negotiate between highlighting cultural diversity within the country and displaying a shared national culture in a global world.

  • Cross-Cultural Medicine and Diverse Health Beliefs-Ethiopians Abroad
    29 Articles Cross-cultural Medicine and Diverse Health Beliefs Ethiopians Abroad RICHARD M. HODES, MD, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia A large number of Ethiopians reside abroad as refugees, immigrants, or students. To provide adequate care, physicians must understand their beliefs about health and medicine. To Ethiopians, health is an equilibrium between the body and the outside. Excess sun is believed to cause mitch ("sunstroke"), leading to skin disease. Blowing winds are thought to cause pain wherever they hit. Sexually transmit- ted disease is attributed to urinating under a full moon. People with buda, "evil eye," are said to be able to harm others by looking at them. Ethiopians often complain of rasehn,"my head" (often saying it burns); yazorehnyal, "spinning" (not a true vertigo); and libehn, "my heart" (usually indicating dys- pepsia rather than a cardiac problem). Most Ethiopians have faith in traditional healers and proce- dures. In children, uvulectomy (to prevent presumed suffocation during pharyngitis in babies), the extraction of lower incisors (to prevent diarrhea), and the incision of eyelids (to prevent or cure con- junctivitis) are common. Circumcision is performed on almost all men and 90% of women. Ethiopians do bloodletting for moygnbagegn, a neurologic disease that includes fever and syncope. Chest pain is treated by cupping. Ethiopians often prefer injections to tablets. Bad news is usually given to families of patients and not the patients themselves. Zar is a form of spirit possession treated by a traditional healer negotiating with the alien spirit and giving gifts to the possessed patient. Health education must address Ethiopian concerns and customs.
