Tkacik, Jr. This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy and you go by John, is that right? TKACIK: Yes! That is right. 3 Q: Could you, let’s just start at the beginning? Could you tell me when and where you were born and something about your family? TKACIK: I was born on May 13th 1949. It was a Friday the 13th at the University Hospital in Urbana, Illinois. My father was at the University of Illinois getting his Masters in Engineering. He was an Army Captain at the time. Q: This was what year? TKACIK: 1949. Q: 1949, So, this was just before the Korean War? TKACIK: It was almost a year before, just a little bit more before the Korean War. My father was headed out to Germany to take over an Engineering Battalion, actually a Construction Battalion in occupied Germany. And we lived in three different places. But, we left in August of ’49. Sailed across the ocean. And returned from Germany three years later in ’52. Q: Let me go back just a bit. Can you tell me something about sort of the background of both your mother and your father? First place the name Tkacik is a hard one to pronounce. TKACIK: My father was born in a little village of in Northern Slovakia on October 26. At least he was baptized on October 26, 1919. So we all count that as his birthday. His father had just returned from the First World War. He was in somewhat of a fight with his older brother about who was going to get the land. In those days it was under the Austrians. Q: Your grandfather had been an Austrian-Hungarian? TKACIK: Austrian-Hungarian and was in the Austrian-Hungarian Army. His older brother had stayed behind while he and his younger brothers went off to war to actually fight the Russians. They did not really see too much action. They stumbled back and by the time the war was over the older brother had taken over matters. So what had happened, as I understand it, my father has written his own biography which is eminently readable and fairly short but nothing of great historical significance except it is also a good view of what life was like in those days. He describes his father coming back. The war is over. The Slovaks and the Czechs have been forced together by the Versailles Treaty in this new country called Czechoslovakia. After a period of time, and I have forgotten exactly what year it was, he left for the United States. Eventually arrived in Pittsburgh where they had a big Slovak community at the time and worked as a laborer in the shop and as a shop foreman of Pittsburgh Plate Glass. And was at Pittsburgh Plate Glass until well into the Depression. Although there were some months when nobody got paid even if you were working. My father was the 4 second oldest of four boys. Three boys at the time stayed behind and grew up in rural Slovakia in the Tatra Mountains, a beautiful area as he describes. And in 1929 he then came with his mother and younger brother. They arrived in New York and then took the train down to Philadelphia and then took another train to Pittsburgh. The oldest son who stayed behind was Antoine. He stayed behind and I guess it was in the early 30’s he was killed in an accident. At any rate the family showed up several years after my grandfather arrived. My father was ten and went to school in Tarentum High School in the town of Tarentum right outside of Pittsburgh and graduated in 1939 at the age of 20. He was number two in his class. The only job you could get in those days was joining the Army. So he joined the Army. He was shipped immediately out to the Canal Zone. And while he was in the Canal Zone I think one day the top Sergeant came around and said, “Anyone want to take the West Point Exam?” So, everybody ran off to take the West Point Exam, because evidently everyone got a day off to take it. Came back a couple of months later to find out that he had passed the exam and was there a way of finding out if he could get an appointment. He managed to get one. I’d forgotten how they did it in those days. Got an appointment from a Congressman in Illinois. And in his book he describes in great detail his last day in the Canal Zone. The entire company came out. He was the only one in the division that passed the exam. They took him down to the boat and got him a new uniform and sent him off to West Point. He arrived at West Point in 1941 right before the war started. He graduated June 6, 1944. After he graduated from West Point he came down to Fort Belvoir to take a month of Combat Engineering Training before being shipped off to Germany. He managed to meet my mother in Washington, DC at the time and then went off to Germany. He was on the periphery of the Battle of the Bugle with Patton’s Third Army. And he describes being very grateful that he wasn’t in the thick of the Battle of the Bugle because that was a pretty grim winter. That was the coldest winter that he could remember. I think he was there for roughly another year right before June of ’45. They took them all down and put them on a boat and shipped them off to the Philippines, through the Suez Canal to the Philippines, where there was still a lot of mopping up going on and arrived at the Philippines in the heat of the battle of Okinawa. Then when the war was over by August, I guess he came back from the Philippines in late ’45 or early ’46 for more Engineering Training at Fort Belvoir where he and my mother got themselves reacquainted and eventually arranged for an engagement and a wedding in 1948. Q: What was the background of your mother? TKACIK: She was a fourth generation Washingtonian on her mother’s side. Her great, great grandmother came over from Ireland in 1848 and worked as a maid or a governess or something for a well to do Irish family in Washington, DC which then married her off to an Irish dentist in Washington by the name I think of O’Donnell. The O’Donnell family had several children, boys and girls. A daughter married a P.T. Moran who owned 5 a chain of feed stores in the Washington area. The feed stores were like gas stations. When your horse got hungry you went down to the feed store. P.T. Moran was very prominent in the Irish Community in Washington. Then P.T. Moran’s daughter Mary Moran married my grandfather, my mother’s father, whose name was Oswald Schuette from Chicago. And Mr. Schuette was in town in Washington as a journalist for a Chicago paper. He arrived in Washington from Chicago in 1906 and became a fairly well known international journalist.

JRMMRA 9 (1988) The Elizabethan Diplomatic Service by F. Jeffrey Platt Northern Arizona University The critical early years of Elizabeth's reign witnessed a watershed in European history. The 1559 Treaty of Cateau-Cambresis, which ended the long Hapsburg-Valois conflict, resulted in a sudden shift in the focus of international politics from Italy to the uncomfortable proximity of the Low Countries. The arrival there, 30 miles from England's coast, in 1567, of thousands of seasoned Spanish troops presented a military and commer­ cial threat the English queen could not ignore. Moreover, French control of Calais and their growing interest in supplanting the Spanish presence in the Netherlands represented an even greater menace to England's security. Combined with these ominous developments, the Queen's excommunica­ tion in May 1570 further strengthened the growing anti-English and anti­ Protestant sentiment of Counter-Reformation Europe. These circumstances, plus the significantly greater resources of France and Spain, defined England, at best, as a middleweight in a world dominated by two heavyweights.

  • Diplomatic Processes and Cultural Variations: the Relevance of Culture in Diplomacy
    Diplomatic Processes and Cultural Variations: The Relevance of Culture in Diplomacy by Wilfried Bolewski Let us not be blind to our differences—but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved. And if we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. John F. Kennedy, American University, June 10, 1963. The relationship between diplomacy and culture has been somewhat neglected in recent academic and practical studies,1 even though competence and understanding during intercultural exchanges unites societies and facilitates further intercultural interactions. Current public discussions concentrate exclusively on the existence of cultural commonalities and universal values all cultures share.2 However, determining likenesses among cultures should be secondary to the awareness of cultural differences as the logical starting point for the evaluation of intercultural commonalities. Intercultural sensitivity within groups paves the way for the acceptance and tolerance of other cultures and allows members to be open to values which are universal among all groups, such as law and justice, which globalized society should then build upon together. Facing the challenges of an increasingly complex world, the question of interdependency between diplomatic processes and cultural variations becomes relevant: is there a shared professional culture in diplomacy apart from national ones, and if so, does it influence diplomacy? To what extent can research into national cultures help diplomacy and governments to understand international interactions? DEFINITION OF “CULTURE”3 General definition Before analyzing the interdependency between culture and diplomacy, it is necessary to state what the word culture implies.

As a result of the global movement toward greater recognition of gender equality and human dignity, the study of women as portrayed in Chinese literature has a long and rich history. A single volume cannot cover the enormous field but offers volume is a starting point for further research. Several renowned Chinese writers and researchers contributed to the book.

  • Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution
    Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution Introduction In his poem, The Second Coming (1919), William Butler Yeats captured the moment we are now experiencing: Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. As we see the deterioration of the institutions created and fostered after the Second World War to create a climate in which peace and prosperity could flourish in Europe and beyond, it is important to understand the role played by diplomacy in securing the stability and strengthening the shared values of freedom and democracy that have marked this era for the nations of the world. It is most instructive to read the Inaugural Address of President John F. Kennedy, in which he encouraged Americans not only to do good things for their own country, but to do good things in the world. The creation of the Peace Corps is an example of the kind of spirit that put young American volunteers into some of the poorest nations in an effort to improve the standard of living for people around the globe. We knew we were leaders; we knew that we had many political and economic and social advantages. There was an impetus to share this wealth. Generosity, not greed, was the motivation of that generation. Of course, this did not begin with Kennedy. It was preceded by the Marshall Plan, one of the only times in history that the conqueror decided to rebuild the country of the vanquished foe.

Buford (center) is sworn in by Mr. Ralph N. Stohl, Director of Administration, Office of the Secretary of Defense (left), during a special ceremony in the office of the Secretary of Defense George C. Marshall (right) at the Pentagon The importance of adequate reserve forces to the security of the nation has been clearly demonstrated by recent world events... I am confident that the Reserve Forces Policy Board will continue to achieve the success it has demonstrated in the past. GEORGE C. MARSHALL, JUNE 13, 1951 The United States of America Office of the Secretary of Defense Reserve Forces Policy Board Annual Report Fiscal Year 2010 30 September 2010 A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards. More than that no man is entitled, and less than that no man shall have. THEODORE ROOSEVELT, JULY, 1903 I. Preliminary Statement Secretary of Defense, General of the Army, George C. Marshall, abolished the Civilian Components Policy Board in June, 1951 and created the Reserve Forces Policy Board. The Congress and President Harry S. Truman codified this decision in the Armed Forces Reserve Act of July 1952. The Board thus created has remained essentially the same in its mission and responsibility for nearly sixty years. The fundamental assumptions which created the RFPB, and its predecessor the CCPB, found in the National Security Act of 1947, also remain as true and relevant today.
