Pach, Jr. On December 24, 1966, Harrison Salisbury became the first mainstream American journalist to report from North Vietnam during the Vietnam War. From his position behind enemy lines, the New York Times reporter revealed that America’s bombing campaign was causing many more civilian casualties than the Johnson administration had acknowledged. Additionally, he challenged how Americans perceived their enemy by portraying North Vietnam’s culture and political ideology as legitimate. Evaluation of governmental and public responses to his stories reveals the significance of these reports. They sparked controversy that undermined American and international confidence in the Johnson administration’s credibility, decreased support for U.S. policies towards North Vietnam, and put increased pressure on the Johnson administration to increase efforts towards peace.

  • Private Business to Public Service: Robert Mcnamara's Management Techniques and Their Limits in Peace And
    Private Business to Public Service: Robert McNamara’s Management Techniques and Their Limits in Peace and War by Albert J. Beveridge A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May, 2014 © 2014 Albert J. Beveridge All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT This dissertation evaluates Robert S. McNamara’s management practices during his tenure as Secretary of Defense, concluding that over- centralized decision-making proved to be the central feature of his management style with one significant exception. When it came to war, notably the Vietnam War, he undermanaged important aspects of that conflict. To better understand McNamara’s management decisions, this dissertation sets them in the context of his brilliance as a student in college and later in graduate school where he absorbed the technocratic management techniques then developing at the Harvard Business School. He applied his education successfully in the Army Air Force during World War II and later at the Ford Motor Company. As Secretary of Defense he initiated a rigorous analytic approach to the defense budget and weapons acquisition through the Planning- Programming-Budgeting System (PPBS) he installed and the associated discipline of systems analysis that he brought to the department. Yet those innovations had the perverse effect of encouraging his proclivity to concentrate on managing data rather than managing people. Through costly errors such as the TFX plane controversy, McNamara discovered the limits ii of technocratic business procedures in a public service environment which required a politically sensitive and socially adept approach. McNamara disregarded many contemporary managerial techniques and models which emphasized delegation, flexibility, and informal communication.

    ema Awarded Theses 2018/2019 Álvaro Gómez del Valle Ruiz “A Community of Shared Destiny” How China Is Reshaping Human Rights in Southeast Asia ema, The European Master’s Programme in Human Rights and Democratisation ÁLVARO GÓMEZ DEL VALLE RUIZ “A COMMUNITY OF SHARED DESTINY” HOW CHINA IS RESHAPING HUMAN RIGHTS IN SOUTHEAST ASIA ÁLVARO GÓMEZ DEL VALLE RUIZ FOREWORD The European Master’s Degree in Human Rights and Democratisation (EMA) is a one-year intensive programme launched in 1997 as a joint initiative of universities in all EU Member States with support from the European Commission. Based on an action- and policy-oriented approach to learning, it combines legal, political, historical, anthropological and philosophical perspectives on the study of human rights and democracy with targeted skills- building activities. The aim from the outset was to prepare young professionals to respond to the requirements and challenges of work in international organisations, field operations, governmental and non-governmental bodies, and academia. As a measure of its success, EMA has served as a model of inspiration for the establishment of six other EU-sponsored regional master’s programmes in the area of human rights and democratisation in different parts of the world. These programmes cooperate closely in the framework of the Global Campus of Human Rights, which is based in Venice, Italy. Ninety students are admitted to the EMA programme each year. During the first semester in Venice, students have the opportunity to meet and learn from leading academics, experts and representatives of international and non-governmental organisations. During the second semester, they relocate to one of the 41 participating universities to follow additional courses in an area of specialisation of their own choice and to conduct research under the supervision of the resident EMA Director or other academic staff.

    Franko-Filipasic Through Censors and Suspicion: Foreign Correspondence in the Soviet Union as a Model for Reporting in Hostile Environments By Elyse Franko-Filipasic Completion: Spring 2008 Advisor: W. Joseph Campbell Graduation: University Honors in Foreign Language and Communication Media 1 Franko-Filipasic “If you don’t get into trouble with them to some extent, if your relationship with them is entirely placid, then it probably means you’re not doing a good job.” - Former Newsweek correspondent Robert B. Cullen on reporting in Moscow, in an interview for Whitman Bassow’s book The Moscow Correspondents.1 Between 1921 and 1988, approximately 300 journalists from American publications were allowed to cross the borders of the Soviet Union and work there as correspondents.2 Many remained there for years at a time, gradually learning to circumvent Soviet censorship laws and making do with unpredictable, mostly off-the-record sources to report on life behind the Iron Curtain. Some were imprisoned on dubious charges; some were expelled from the country; and, despite the many obstacles which stood in the way of contacting government spokesmen or even finding sources willing to speak to American journalists, a select few were able to produce work worthy of the Pulitzer Prize. Between the end of the Second World War and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, five journalists were awarded the Pulitzer Prize for their reporting from Moscow. They were: Edmund Stevens of The Christian Science Monitor; Harrison E. Salisbury of The New York Times; Walter Lippmann of The New York Herald Tribune; Hedrick Smith of The New York Times; and Bill Keller, also of The New York Times.
