  • Origins and Development of Legal Racial Exclusion In
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles American Ethnocracy: Origins and Development of Legal Racial Exclusion in Comparative Perspective, 1600s to 1900s A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Wesley Hiers 2013 © Copyright by Wesley Hiers 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION American Ethnocracy: Origins and Development of Legal Racial Exclusion in Comparative Perspective, 1600s to 1900s by Wesley Hiers Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Andreas Wimmer, Chair This dissertation directs sociology’s political-institutional turn to the puzzle of legal racial exclusion (LRE)—a social phenomenon wherein states classify their populations by race and assign unequal rights to dominants and subordinates on this basis. Spanning from colonial times to the civil rights era, this dissertation offers a long-run perspective on how political institutions—modes of imperial rule, party systems and coalitions, and legislative arrangements—have shaped the emergence, endurance, and demise of LRE. Chapter one uses a macro-comparative analysis to explain why LRE emerged in some former European settlement colonies but not others. The basic argument links the emergence of LRE in the independence era to colonial legacies of settler self-rule: where European settlers established autonomous, representative governments during the colonial period, LRE later developed. Focusing on the United States, the next three chapters then examine the political ii institutions and alliances that sustained LRE until the 1960s. Compared to other cases of LRE, the United States is the only one where LRE became an object of significant political contestation several decades before this exclusion was actually overcome.

  • DEMOCRATIC POLITICS in the 8Th DISTRICT of VIRGINIA, 1886 By
    DEMOCRATIC POLITICS IN THE 8th DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA, 1886 By MARGARET CooKE BIRGE AND C. B. RosE, JR.* The National Democratic Party achieved some sort of fame when its 1924 Convention failed to select a presidential candidate until the 103rd ballot. The record for convention balloting, however, probably had been established in 1886 when the Democratic Party in the 8th Congressional District of Virginia failed to select a candidate for the U.S. House of Rep­ resentatives even on the 207th ballot. The story of the 1886 exercise in political democracy tells much of the Virginia of that day. Shadows of the Civil War, Reconstruction, "Redemp­ tion," the "readjusters"-all cast their pall. This episode is of particular interest to Arlingtonians because two of the visible protagonists-indeed the leading two-had close connections with the County: General W. H. F. Lee, son of Robert E. Lee, and Frank Hume, prominent in County civic and political affairs. THE BACKGROUND The drama of 1886 can have little meaning without some picture of the background scenery against which it was played. A quick review of the preceding 20 years is in order. The governments of the Confederate States recognized by President An­ drew Johnson after the Civil War, represented in Virginia by Governor Francis Peirpont,1 were repudiated by the Congress in 1867 when the Rad­ ical Republicans gained control of that body. The new plans for reconstruct­ ing the seceded States called for military administration until certain condi­ tions were complied with. These included adoption of a constitution which met the approval of the Congress, and the ratification of the 14th and 15th Amendments to the U.S.

I’m so glad to have worked with and learned from you. I would also like to thank Professor Naoko Shibusawa for her counsel throughout this entire process. Without her astute advice and encouragement, I would not have finished this project. I would also like to thank my History professors in general and especially Professor Robert Self, who guided me early in my time at Brown and in the Department. Professor Emily Owens’ teaching and research recommendations proved very helpful as I was beginning this project. I would also like to thank two professors from my first year when I attended Emory University, without whom I would not have written this thesis: to Professors Patrick Allitt and Daniel LaChance, I did not know I was a History student until I took your courses. Julia Rock, thank you for the time you dedicated in reading my thesis again (and again), for your invaluable edits, and for sharing in the travails of this lengthy project – we made it through this together.
