Records, [Box #, Folder #], Special Collections Research Center, University of Chicago Library Historical Note The Department of Anthropology at the University of Chicago was founded in 1929 under the chairmanship of Fay-Cooper Cole, but had a longer historical presence at the University. Anthropology was established as a field of early interest at the University of Chicago through William Rainey Harper’s appointment in 1892 [the first year that classes were held] of Frederick Starr as the first faculty member in anthropology. This was one of Harper’s first acts as the inaugural president of the University of Chicago. Starr was originally appointed into the “scientific department”, but with Harper’s development of the “social science” (or sociology) department under Albion W. Small, he was quickly reappointed. During the period of his appointment until his retirement in 1923, Professor Starr frequently traveled, conducting research in the United States and Mexico, as well as in Japan, Korea, the Philippines and Africa. Starr was an immensely popular teacher and lecturer, but his frequent travels regularly interrupted instruction in anthropology, necessitating the continued administrative integration of Anthropology with the department of Sociology. Following Starr’s retirement, the University offered a part-time appointment to Fay-Cooper Cole, who had done long-term fieldwork in the Philippines in 1906, and was employed at the Field Museum. Cole consolidated his position, lobbied for and achieved the separation between the departments of sociology and anthropology in 1929, and facilitated the recruitment and appointment of the brilliant linguistic anthropologist Edward Sapir, a second-generation student of Franz Boas who helped to shift the intellectual culture of the department away from Starr’s museum orientation to the knowledge of the patterns of social behavior, and especially of symbolism. Sapir’s influence inspired linguistic anthropological fieldwork by Manuel Andrade, Harry Hoijer and Father Bernard Haile amongst various communities in the United States and Mexico. Sapir’s appointment was followed shortly by that of Robert Redfield, whose policy-orientation towards contemporary America and interest and concern with contemporary social issues reveals the influence on the department of anthropology of the Chicago School of Sociology and its chair, Robert E. Park (who was also Redfield’s teacher and father in law). Redfield and Tax’s early research on rural and urban communities in Yucatan (and subsequently Guatemala) further articulated this influence. In addition to small portions here, larger collections on this research can be found in the papers of Robert Redfield and Sol Tax as well as the papers of the Chiapas Project. 4 Early research also included the archeological excavation of important sites in Illinois, including the Kincaid Mounds, which for many years served as a summer “field school” for anthropology graduate students and a key site where modern archeological field methods were developed and revolutionized. This research revealed how certain archeological features in these sites established the state of Illinois as central in the understanding of the etho-history of the Mississippi Valley region. The department produced various monographs and a comparative pictorial survey (conducted primarily by Thorne Deuel) of the archeology of the region. A significant moment in early departmental history was the initially temporary appointment of British social-anthropologist Alfred Reginald Radcliffe-Brown to the faculty to replace Sapir’s initially temporary position at Yale. Radcliffe Brown’s reworking of Durkheimian themes in his ahistorical approach to social structure and function reoriented the department towards the “social science” from which it had since departed. This perspective contrasted sharply with Sapir’s historically particularist Boasian framework, resulting in a revealing schism between the “socially” and “culturally” oriented anthropologists in the department. Both their respective “temporary” appointments became permanent, until Radcliffe-Brown’s departure for Oxford in 1937 and Sapir’s death in 1939. In the late 1950’s the recruitment of Lloyd Fallers, Clifford Geertz and David Schneider from the University of California Berkeley breathed new life into the department following the death of Redfield (of Leukemia in 1958) and the departure of Sherwood Washburn and Lloyd Warner. These former three scholars reoriented the department towards a symbolic approach to anthropology, which had a monumental impact on the field. These young scholars also oriented the department towards the ongoing recruitment of “star” anthropologists who would revolutionize the field. The personal and professional papers of these three scholars are all available for research in the University of Chicago Library, Special Collections Research Center. Subsequent faculty hires with a significant impact on the culture, research and ongoing influence of the department of anthropology include Marshall Sahlins, Bernard Cohn, Michael Silverstein, Jean and John Comaroff, Terence Turner, Stanley Tambiah, Nancy Munn, Valerio Valeri and George Stocking. These scholars have all further articulated the themes that have long concerned Chicago anthropologists with increased attention to the relationship between anthropology and history, colonialism and imperialism and semiotic approaches to culture. Rooted in these historical and contemporary influences, the University of Chicago’s Department of Anthropology has continued to be one of the premier departments in anthropological instruction and research in the world. Scope Note The records of the University of Chicago Department of Anthropology include materials from 1929 when the Department was founded as a distinct entity under the Chairmanship of Fay- Cooper Cole until 1996. Periods in this timeframe are unevenly represented with the bulk of materials from the 1960’s to 1996. 5 Series I: Fay-Cooper Cole Papers includes the professional papers of Professor Fay-Cooper Cole.

  • American Jewish Philanthropy and the Shaping of Holocaust Survivor Narratives in Postwar America (1945 – 1953)
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “In a world still trembling”: American Jewish philanthropy and the shaping of Holocaust survivor narratives in postwar America (1945 – 1953) A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Rachel Beth Deblinger 2014 © Copyright by Rachel Beth Deblinger 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “In a world still trembling”: American Jewish philanthropy and the shaping of Holocaust survivor narratives in postwar America (1945 – 1953) by Rachel Beth Deblinger Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor David N. Myers, Chair The insistence that American Jews did not respond to the Holocaust has long defined the postwar period as one of silence and inaction. In fact, American Jewish communal organizations waged a robust response to the Holocaust that addressed the immediate needs of survivors in the aftermath of the war and collected, translated, and transmitted stories about the Holocaust and its survivors to American Jews. Fundraising materials that employed narratives about Jewish persecution under Nazism reached nearly every Jewish home in America and philanthropic programs aimed at aiding survivors in the postwar period engaged Jews across the politically, culturally, and socially diverse American Jewish landscape. This study examines the fundraising pamphlets, letters, posters, short films, campaign appeals, radio programs, pen-pal letters, and advertisements that make up the material record of this communal response to the Holocaust and, ii in so doing, examines how American Jews came to know stories about Holocaust survivors in the early postwar period. This kind of cultural history expands our understanding of how the Holocaust became part of an American Jewish discourse in the aftermath of the war by revealing that philanthropic efforts produced multiple survivor representations while defining American Jews as saviors of Jewish lives and a Jewish future.

All rights reserved. Abstract This article reviews the evolution of the concept of assimilation in American social science. It distinguishes assimilation from accommodation as modal adaptation outcomes of different immigrant generations, as well as various aspects that are commonly conflated by the concept (cultural adaptations, economic mobility, social acceptance into a native mainstream); discusses interrelated cultural (subtractive and additive acculturation), structural (primary and secondary integration), and psychological (identification) dimensions of the concept; and describes the process of ‘segmented assimilation’–how it is that different groups, in varying contexts of reception and incorporation, adapt to and are absorbed into different sectors of the society. “What happens ‘when peoples meet’?” was the question with effectively blended into one. At the group level, assimilation which Milton Gordon (1964: p. 60) opened his seminal may involve the absorption of one or more minority groups chapter on “The Nature of Assimilation,” referring to the into the mainstream, or the merging of minority groups – e.g., “processes and results . of ethnic meetings in the modern second-generation West Indians ‘becoming black Americans.’ world,” which take place in a wide range of contexts from At the individual level, assimilation denotes the cumulative colonial conquest and military occupation to the displacement changes that make individuals of one ethnic group more of indigenous peoples and to large-scale voluntary immigra- acculturated, integrated, and identified with the members of tion.

It was intended that this program would be carried on in collabora¬ tion with many of the professions, particularly those most directly concerned with social welfare. The immediate re¬ sponse of the medical profession, which has resulted in the ini¬ tiation of a greater number of Foundation projects in the field of the health services than in any other, was not anticipated but it was welcomed. Medical leaders concerned about social and psychological aspects of health were unexpectedly eager for increased collaboration with social scientists. Yet medical science generally is regarded, at least by or¬ dinary laymen, as having to do almost exclusively with re¬ search of a physical or biological nature.

Marvin Kaufmann Opler papers, 1915-1979. 9 cubic feet (27 document boxes) #M-0143 BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: Marvin Kaufmann Opler was born in Buffalo, New York on June 13, 1914, the son of Arthur and Fanny Opler. He attended the University of Buffalo from 1931 to 1934, then transferred to the University of Michigan, graduating with an A.B. degree in social studies in 1935. He earned a Ph.D. in anthropology from Columbia University in 1938, studying under Ralph Linton. His dissertation concerned the acculturation of the Ute and Paiute Indians in Colorado and Utah. He also conducted anthropological fieldwork among Eastern Apache tribes such as the Mescalero Indians in New Mexico, as well as Eskimo and Northwest Coast Indians in Oregon. After earning his doctorate, Opler taught sociology and anthropology at Reed College from 1938 to 1943. Between 1943 and 1946, Opler served as a Community Analyst at the Tule Lake Japanese internment camp in Newell, California. Tule Lake eventually became the camp for “disloyal” and otherwise difficult Japanese-Americans. Opler was sensitive to the complex issues related to the Japanese internment. He wrote reports analyzing the relocation and segregation programs, as well as the issue of renunciation of loyalty to Japan. In 1946, he co-authored Impounded People, an often-critical assessment of the internment program, published by the War Relocation Agency itself. The book was reprinted by the University of Arizona Press in 1969. In the years following the closing of the internment camps, Opler taught anthropology and sociology at Occidental College, Stanford University, Harvard University, and Tulane University.

  • Individualism, Society and the Prevention of Mental Illness in the United States, 1945–1968
    ARTICLE Received 26 Jan 2016 | Accepted 26 Apr 2016 | Published 7 Jun 2016 DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2016.24 OPEN A fine balance: individualism, society and the prevention of mental illness in the United States, 1945–1968 Matthew Smith1 ABSTRACT In the introduction to a collection of his essays entitled Society as Patient (1950), American social scientist and Rockefeller Foundation administrator Lawrence K Frank (1890–1968) claimed that, to prevent the apparently escalating rates of mental illness: “The individual, instead of seeking his own personal salvation and security, must recognize his almost complete dependence upon the group life and see his only hope in and through cultural reorganization”. Americans, Frank continued, would have “to give up … time-honored beliefs in human volition and responsibility” and “replace them with a larger and humanly more valuable belief in cultural self-determination, social volition, and group responsibility”. For Americans entering the 1950s, a decade of postwar prosperity, McCarthyism and free market capitalism, such communitarian thinking might have been anathema. But also arising out of the American experience of the Second World War were mounting concerns about mental health, due in part to the large number of American military recruits rejected on psychiatric grounds and American soldiers granted psychiatric discharge. In the face of affluence and contentment was alarm that many more Americans were mentally disordered than previously thought, and that new preventive approaches to mental health were required. Addressing these concerns during the postwar period was a new approach to psychiatry: social psychiatry. Rooted in both the child guidance and mental hygiene movements of the early twentieth century as well as contemporary social scientific research, social psychiatry was “a preventive psychiatry”, an epidemiological approach to mental health dedicated to identifying the environmental causes of mental illness—ranging from overcrowding and poverty to social exclusion and racism—and eradicating them.

Has two great advantages over books I have seen in this area to date: 1) There is an attempt at a conceptual scheme for race and culture contacts which is sufliciently broad to include the many specific problems involved, and 2) It utilizes materials from many areas of the world and does not confine itself to one American minority group such as the American Negro--a fault which is to be found in many texts in this field."-H.
