Pach Associate Professor of History __________________________________ Howard Dewald Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT KNOBLAUCH, WILLIAM M., Ph.D., March 2012, History Selling the Second Cold War: Antinuclear Cultural Activism and Reagan Era Foreign Policy Director of Dissertation: Chester J. Pach This dissertation examines how 1980s antinuclear activists utilized popular culture to criticize the Reagan administration’s arms buildup. The 1970s and the era of détente marked a decade-long nadir for American antinuclear activism. Ronald Reagan’s rise to the presidency in 1981 helped to usher in the “Second Cold War,” a period of reignited Cold War animosities that rekindled atomic anxiety. As the arms race escalated, antinuclear activism surged. Alongside grassroots movements, such as the nuclear freeze campaign, a unique group of antinuclear activists—including publishers, authors, directors, musicians, scientists, and celebrities—challenged Reagan’s military buildup in American mass media and popular culture. These activists included Fate of the Earth author Jonathan Schell, Day After director Nicholas Meyer, and “nuclear winter” scientific-spokesperson Carl Sagan.

Morning In America - The Hauenstein Center for Presidential Studies - Grand Valley Stat... Page 1 of 4 Morning In America The Leadership of Ronald Reagan By Mark Couturier When Ronald Wilson Reagan ascended the steps of the Capitol to take the oath of office as president of the United States, few realized how this routine but special event would unleash a tidal wave that would roll across history's shores, forever altering the fortunes of the nation and the world. For the commander-in-chief, his first inauguration represented the culmination of a life and career dedicated to the pursuit of a better future for himself, his country, and, ultimately, the entire globe. Born on February 6, 1911, in an obscure flat in Tampico, Illinois, Reagan learned from an early age that the world held no guarantees, and in order to survive and triumph, he would have to rely on his unbridled optimism, perseverance, and a little bit of luck. His father, Jack Reagan, was an Irish-American Catholic who spent most of his life as a store clerk and failed businessman.

  • Transcript: Tom Reed Interviewed by Lou Cannon, May 23, 2019 Lou
    Transcript: Tom Reed interviewed by Lou Cannon, May 23, 2019 Lou Cannon: This is another in a series of interviews by Open California of people who played significant roles in the political career of Ronald Reagan. Open California is funded by the California State Library. And today we're sitting down with Thomas C. Reed, whose own career is varied and interesting. He graduated first in his mechanical engineering class from Cornell University. He earned a Master's in Electrical Engineering from USC. Served in the Air Force, worked on nuclear projects at the Livermore Laboratory and was Secretary of the Air Force under President Ford. But today, we're focusing on Tom Reed's relationships with Ronald Reagan. Tom, what did you find attractive about Reagan and how is it you came to work for him? Thomas C. Reed: Well, Lou, I appreciate your having me here and I appreciate the chance to contribute to history. I found him the key to my political objectives, which was to close down the Soviet empire. I got involved in politics starting in the senior year of my high school and first year in college because of two events. The war in Korea had taken a bad turn in the spring of 1951. The tide had turned; Korea was an American problem. MacArthur... General MacArthur had been fired, he came to address Congress and in that address to Congress he talked about the problems, and he delivered the punch line to me: "There is no substitute for victory." And that speech was played into our high school lunchroom.

  • Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Lou Cannon Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith November 16, 2009
    Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Lou Cannon Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith November 16, 2009 Smith: First of all, thank you for doing this. You mentioned that you were covering Congress in the late Sixties and early Seventies. Lots of people in this town are pretty nostalgic about then, compared to now. Is that justified? Cannon: I think so. You have to say it’s justified and put this big asterisk up there, because there were a lot of congressmen who got investigated. There were a few that went to jail. There were arguably a few who didn’t go to jail that should have. But if you are looking at it, as one of my editors at The Washington Post used to say, “with a lot of altitude,” from high up, you have to say that the Congress of that period was not only collegial – it was at times, and it wasn’t – but it did get things done. Smith: It was constructive. Cannon: It was constructive and worked across the aisle. You just look at the bills, everything from civil rights to tax reform and Medicare, all these things that got passed. Sure, the presidents deserved a lot of credit or blame if you don’t like what they did, but Congress was a functioning organism. It was a vital part of government. It both initiated and it reacted. Now some things Congress couldn’t do. I used to say that if I had a dollar for every speech I’d heard opposing the Vietnam War, I would be rich and retired.

See all on Reagan, Ronald. I now begin the journey that will be lead me into the sunset of my life. Dec 28, Hugh Heinsohn rated it it was amazing. A complex package of investment incentives was approved in only to be gradually reduced in each subsequent year through He details the crucial summits that Reagan had with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, and rightly gives Reagan credit for helping to move the U. Washington, D. As I stated earlier, Reagan started his presidency with a strong team within his executive office that balanced out what was a weak cabinet. The changes to the federal tax code were much more substantial. Verdict: Do NOT read this book. Further, he confused reality with the movies. The Reagan administration is by far the most corrupt presidency since Richard Nixon and one of the most corrupt in the postwar era. The following step was its ratification by three-quarters of the states, which many conservative groups were trying to prevent—an effort enthusiastically supported by Reagan in View 1 comment. This leads us to another under-appreciated fact about the Reagan administration: as many as 40 Reagan appointees were indicted, including the leaders of the Interior Department, the EPA, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, two National Security Advisors, and longtime loyalists like Michael Deaver and Lyn Nofziger. In the thirty-ninth in a series on American presidents, participants discussed the life and career of Ronald Reagan.

  • Freedom Man: the Leadership of Ronald Reagan
    1 Freedom Man: The Leadership of Ronald Reagan Lou Cannon In his seminal book on leadership, Warren G. Bennis wrote that the successful leader must have a guiding vision of the mission to be accomplished and the strength to persist in the face of failure or setbacks. Bennis had business leaders in mind, but his words apply with equal force to political or military leader- ship.1 By these standards Ronald Reagan succeeded in the leadership he provid- ed as president of the United States from 1981 to 1989. Despite some gaps in his leadership, Reagan was a transformational president. As Margaret Thatcher observed, Reagan “achieved the most difficult of all political tasks: changing attitudes and perceptions about what is possible. From the strong fortress of his convictions, he set out to enlarge freedom the world over at a time when freedom was in retreat—and he succeeded.”2 Much is demanded of American presidents. “No one can examine the char- acter of the American presidency without being impressed by its many-sided- ness,” wrote British historian Harold Laski in 1940 when his country’s existence was threatened by the Nazis and anxious for assistance from U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt. “The range of the president’s functions is enormous,” Laski wrote. “He is ceremonial head of state. He is a vital source of legislative sugges- tion. He is the final source of all executive decision.

  • Ronald Reagan and American Exceptionalism
    12 Ronald Reagan and American Exceptionalism ANNELISE ANDERSON Ronald Reagan’s earliest explicit view of American exceptionalism was expressed in a speech he gave to the 1952 graduating class at William Woods College in Fulton, Missouri, the same town in which Winston Churchill had told the United States that an iron curtain had fallen across Europe from Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic. At this time Reagan had been out of the country on only one occasion, when he had gone to England to make a movie. He hadn’t liked England—the food was not good, the people were regimented, and it was too cold. At the time he spoke at William Woods College, he had nowhere near Herbert Hoover’s international experience. He had served in World War II, making training fi lms for the Army Air Corps, at which time he had already made thirty feature fi lms. Aft er the war he returned to his acting career and became president of the Screen Actors Guild, where he negotiated with studio heads on behalf of actors and fought attempts by Communist- infi ltrated unions to take over Hollywood. By 1952 he was not getting very good roles. He had married his second wife, 143 Annelise Anderson Nancy Davis, a few months before, and his job representing General Electric, which would make him a prominent television personality, was two years in the future. Th is is what he said to the graduating seniors: “I, in my own mind, have thought of America as a place in the divine scheme of things that was set aside as a promised land.
