Germany, Major Professor Ann Johnson, Committee Member Marjorie Spruill, Committee Member Thomas Lekan, Committee Member Robert Brinkmeyer, Committee Member Lacy Ford, Senior Vice Provost and Dean of Graduate Studies © Copyright by Caroline Rose Peyton, 2016 All Rights Reserved. ii DEDICATION For Dean and my family. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Distance runners and graduate students share common ground. Both enterprises require long hours, if not physically alone, then alone with your own thoughts. Those thoughts often rebel against the intended purpose—five hundred words appears good enough and twelve miles rather than fifteen might suffice for now, but accomplishing big goals requires a kind of fortitude to override those signals and to suffer well. Of course, running thousands of miles and writing hundreds of pages are rewarding, even when the end result does not match the original vision. While these accomplishments require individual will and personal sacrifice, if we are lucky, our family, friends, mentors, and peers sustain us. Long before the first inkling of this project materialized, I received tremendous support and inspiration, and those forces have only grown in the last few years. This project would not have been possible without the generous support of the University of South Carolina’s College of Arts and Sciences, especially Mary Anne Fitzpatrick, USC’s Office of the Vice President for Research, USC’s Institute for Southern Studies, USC’s Department of History, the National Science Foundation and American Society for Environmental History for travel grants, the Kentucky Historical Society, the Women in Technology History group, and the Rachel Carson Center and the University of Wisconsin-Madison for support to attend the Anthropocene Slam in 2014. I would also like to thank the University of South Carolina’s Department of History. Although I’ve considered many different paths in life, the decision to attend iv the University of South Carolina has been one decision I have not questioned. The faculty’s guidance, along with the friendships forged at USC, have proven far more meaningful than I could have imagined. A special thanks goes to my dissertation director Kent Germany. He has devoted an astounding amount of time guiding me through the dissertation process. While his editorial and scholarly feedback have been invaluable, he gave me enough freedom to shape the project early on and provided the necessary encouragement to sustain the project through various hurdles. From the first year at USC, I had a gut instinct that he was the right mentor, and I’m thankful he stuck with me. Whether I proposed studying southern wrestling, police brutality, or nuclear power, his approach provided a kind of scholarly sustenance that buoyed me through many different ways of exploring southern history. Besides being a genuinely good person and a great mentor, he also provides the best marginal comments—ranging from the comic to the moving. Sometimes we get to know one another through strange ways, in this case, comment bubbles. I would also like to thank the other members of my dissertation committee: Ann Johnson, Marjorie Spruill, Thomas Lekan, and Robert Brinkmeyer. Ann Johnson gave me the confidence and the guidance necessary to dive into the history of technology mid- way through graduate school. Adopting a new field has not been easy, and I couldn’t have done it without her. She has been an important mentor to so many graduate students, and I’m glad she thought adopting the “southern nukes chick” label wasn’t crazy after all. Marjorie Spruill has been a phenomenal mentor, who gave me much-needed encouragement and constructive feedback in her graduate seminar. She also gave me the v opportunity to work as her research assistant, where I learned the ropes of oral history transcription. More importantly, Marjorie’s kindness and intellect continue to inspire me. Likewise, Thomas Lekan, the department’s resident environmental history, offered encouragement during the project’s earliest stages and has been a wonderful resource for understanding the field. Like the history of technology, I came to environmental history late in the game, and I appreciate Tom’s generosity and willingness to lend his keen perspective to the dissertation. Finally, I’d like to thank Robert Brinkmeyer for his long-standing support and agreement to serve on the committee. I first met Bob as an undergraduate at the University of Arkansas. Bob upended everything I thought I knew and sparked an interest in southern history, culture, and literature. His style of teaching seemed so radical yet so organic. I’ve been fortunate enough to take an independent study and a graduate seminar with Bob, and the conversations, friendships, and books from those courses run through it all. From the Department of History, I’d like to thank Larry Glickman (who’s now at Cornell), for his support, his advocacy, and his guidance. He encouraged me to enter the PhD program after I had only applied to the MA program. That early vote of confidence was pivotal. As his research assistant, I gained valuable insight into how professional academics approach long-term projects, and as his student, he gave sharp but fair criticism that motivated me to do better work. Moreover, Larry played an instrumental role in securing funding for my sixth year, and while it took me longer than I promised, I can’t thank him enough for it. vi I’d also like to thank Lauren Sklaroff for her tremendous support and her guidance. Larry and Lauren, together, advocated for me at a critical hour in graduate school. Beyond that, I’ve learned so much from Lauren as her student and as her TA, and I’ve always respected her knack for giving meaningful feedback and for encouraging students to do more. I would be remiss if I failed to thank other faculty and staff at USC. A special thanks goes to Matt Childs. Matt’s graduate seminar and the time spent as his TA are among some of my best grad school experiences. You are the Yoda to many, and I hope you know that. Dean Kinzley, thank you for your unfailing support, leadership, and wit. The graduate students at USC have been well-served by you. Thanks should also be extended to Pat Sullivan, whose guidance and scholarship, inspires and gives us all a model for making our work matter. Don Doyle, thank you for your support and for allowing me to serve as your research assistant. The experience taught me about the depth of knowledge required to write great historical scholarship. Mark Smith, thank you for the valuable feedback and encouragement during the project’s first stage. Thanks to Emily Brock for her support as I initially explored environmental history. Also, thanks should go to Bob Ellis in USC’s Institute for Southern Studies. Several other people have played important roles in my academic career. Among them is Debra Rae Cohen. I took three courses with DRC at the University of Arkansas, and like Bob Brinkmeyer’s classes, Debra Rae inspired and challenged me. The rock critic turned professor made me a lot more convinced that college wasn’t such as bad idea, and she’s continued to guide me at the University of South Carolina. I’d also like to thank Lynda Coon. Her undergraduate courses helped get me back on track after a vii prolonged academic slump. Finally, I’d like to thank Jeannie Whayne, who served as my honors thesis advisor as an undergraduate and urged me to pursue the study of history further. I wouldn’t be here without her. Special thanks to Cameron University’s Department of History and Government. Lance Janda made sure I had a much-needed space for writing on a moment’s notice. Thanks to Lance, Sarah Janda, Edris Montalvo, Kurt Johnson, Wendy Whitman-Cobb, Travis Childs, Douglas Catterall, and Roni Kay O’Dell for their support and their good humor during a stressful time. I’d also like to thank some compatriots on conference panels and others that have offered helpful feedback over the last few years. Paul Josephson, whose expertise in all things nuclear far surpasses mine, has been a great supporter and running partner. Paul’s generosity in spirit and his attitude towards life and work gives me something to strive for. Paul exemplifies living life to the fullest, and I thank him for sharing his wit and his wisdom during our runs at SHOT conferences. I’d also like to thank David Turpie, Wilko Van Hardenberg, David Hecht, Brian Black, Tatiana Kasperski, Jason Krupar, and Brian Leech.

This policy transition was controversial, causing friction with U.S. allies, with the nuclear power industry, and with Congress. Early in his presidential campaign, Carter criticized the excessive federal financial commitment to developing plutonium-based reactors and adopted the view that the weapons proliferation risks of plutonium economy technologies were serious and needed to be addressed.

    Kentucky’s “Atomic Graveyard”: Maxey Flats and Environmental Inequity in Rural America By Caroline Peyton In 1962, with powers vested by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commis- sion (AEC), Kentucky licensed a low-level radioactive waste disposal facility, the Maxey Flats Disposal Site.1 Located in northeastern Ken- tucky’s rural Fleming County, the site’s shallow trenches welcomed nuclear garbage, ranging from medical scrubs to highly radioactive “special nuclear material” from 1963 to 1977. 2 During the mid-1970s, a state investigation detected the presence of plutonium, a transuranic radioactive chemical element, in offsite water sources. Soon thereaf- ter, an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) study revealed what many feared: plutonium had moved beyond the site’s trenches and would conceivably continue to do so. The findings challenged the 1 Local residents refer to the area as “Maxey Flat.” I employ the name Maxey Flats, per government documents. For “atomic graveyard,” see Jim Morrissey, “Kentucky’s Atomic Burial Ground,” Louisville Courier-Journal, December 13, 1964.

  • Alemany, Ricard
    1 As I finished my first year of the MBA, one of my mentor’s advice was to read. Used to reading case studies, the question really was “what books should I read?”. After two years at IESE, and experiencing first hand the breadth and depth of knowledge shared from IESE Faculty, I thought the most valuable advice on what to read was right in front of me. How could I continue to learn from professors beyond the classroom, once the MBA path comes to an end. I thought a reading list from IESE Faculty could serve not just me, but my whole class and perhaps future IESE graduates, as a guide to continue learning. Therefore, I asked professors for book recommendations that would inspire and guide us in our future endeavors. The document that follows is the result of it. I hope you find this document insightful and useful. I would like to thank all the participating professors for their recommendations and participation in the project and for sharing their knowledge not only in class, but also beyond it. Additionally, I am grateful for the help and patience of Eduardo Pérez (IESE MBA 2019), the creative genius, who has given shape of the document that I here present to you. Antonio Recio Sanromán. " Our brain is like our body: it needs exercise. If you don’t read at least one good book every month, you will lose most of the good intellectual and analytical shape you got during the MBA reading every day case after case… So, don’t stop reading.

  • The New Investor Tom C.W
    The New Investor Tom C.W. Lin EVIEW R ABSTRACT A sea change is happening in finance. Machines appear to be on the rise and humans on LA LAW LA LAW the decline. Human endeavors have become unmanned endeavors. Human thought and UC human deliberation have been replaced by computerized analysis and mathematical models. Technological advances have made finance faster, larger, more global, more interconnected, and less human. Modern finance is becoming an industry in which the main players are no longer entirely human. Instead, the key players are now cyborgs: part machine, part human. Modern finance is transforming into what this Article calls cyborg finance. This Article offers one of the first broad, descriptive, and normative examinations of this sea change and its wide-ranging effects on law, society, and finance. The Article begins by placing the rise of artificial intelligence and computerization in finance within a larger social context. Next, it explores the evolution and birth of a new investor paradigm in law precipitated by that rise. This Article then identifies and addresses regulatory dangers, challenges, and consequences tied to the increasing reliance on artificial intelligence and computers. Specifically, it warns of emerging financial threats in cyberspace, examines new systemic risks linked to speed and connectivity, studies law’s capacity to govern this evolving financial landscape, and explores the growing resource asymmetries in finance. Finally, drawing on themes from the legal discourse about the choice between rules and standards, this Article closes with a defense of humans in an uncertain financial world in which machines continue to rise, and it asserts that smarter humans working with smart machines possess the key to better returns and better futures.

  • A Business Lawyer's Bibliography: Books Every Dealmaker Should Read
    585 A Business Lawyer’s Bibliography: Books Every Dealmaker Should Read Robert C. Illig Introduction There exists today in America’s libraries and bookstores a superb if underappreciated resource for those interested in teaching or learning about business law. Academic historians and contemporary financial journalists have amassed a huge and varied collection of books that tell the story of how, why and for whom our modern business world operates. For those not currently on the front line of legal practice, these books offer a quick and meaningful way in. They help the reader obtain something not included in the typical three-year tour of the law school classroom—a sense of the context of our practice. Although the typical law school curriculum places an appropriately heavy emphasis on theory and doctrine, the importance of a solid grounding in context should not be underestimated. The best business lawyers provide not only legal analysis and deal execution. We offer wisdom and counsel. When we cast ourselves in the role of technocrats, as Ronald Gilson would have us do, we allow our advice to be defined downward and ultimately commoditized.1 Yet the best of us strive to be much more than legal engineers, and our advice much more than a mere commodity. When we master context, we rise to the level of counselors—purveyors of judgment, caution and insight. The question, then, for young attorneys or those who lack experience in a particular field is how best to attain the prudence and judgment that are the promise of our profession. For some, insight is gained through youthful immersion in a family business or other enterprise or experience.
