The Yogi and the Proletarian 149 CONCLUSION 178 Translator's Note Humanism and Terror first appeared in 1947. It is the trans­ lator's belief that Merleau-Ponty's argument, as well as that of Koestler in Darkness at Noon (1946) raises questions that are still relevant to the fateful connection between revolu­ tion and violence. All the same, it may be useful to con­ temporary readers to recall some of the background to the dispute between Roestler and Merleau-Ponty and the way it involved intellectuals on the French left whether Commu­ nist or non-Communist. I shall not attempt to trace in any detail the postwar de­ velopments which are the setting for Humanism and Terror.

  • The Geopolitics of Laïcité in a Multicultural Age: French Secularism, Educational Policy and the Spatial Management of Difference
    The Geopolitics of Laïcité in a Multicultural Age: French Secularism, Educational Policy and the Spatial Management of Difference Christopher A. Lizotte A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Katharyne Mitchell, Chair Victoria Lawson Michael Brown Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Geography ©Copyright 2017 Christopher A. Lizotte University of Washington Abstract The Geopolitics of Laïcité in a Multicultural Age: French Secularism, Educational Policy and the Spatial Management of Difference Christopher A. Lizotte Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Katharyne Mitchell Geography I examine a package of educational reforms enacted following the January 2015 attacks in and around Paris, most notably directed at the offices of the satirical publication Charlie Hebdo. These interventions, known collectively as the “Great Mobilization for the Republic’s Values”, represent the latest in a string of educational attempts meant to reinvigorate a sense of national pride among immigrant-descended youth – especially Muslim – in France’s unique form of state secularism, laïcité. While ostensibly meant to apply equally across the nationalized French school system, in practice La Grande Mobilisation has been largely enacted in schools located in urban spaces of racialized difference thought to be “at risk” of anti-republican behavior. Through my work, I show that practitioners exercise their own power by subverting and adapting geopolitical discourses running through educational laïcité – notably global security, women’s rights, and communalism – are nuanced by school-based practitioners, who interpret state directives in the light of their institutional knowledge and responsiveness to the social and economic profiles of their student populations.

  • The Liberty Road: Utah Beach to Bastogne WWI Legacy of the 5Th
    Newsletter Issue 37, October 2017 WWI Legacy of the 5th Division repaired Activated on 11 Dec 1917, the Fifth Divi- sion arrived in France on 1 May 1918 and spent 104 days in the front line, suffering 2,120 killed and 6,996 wounded as they fought across St Mihiel, Frapelle, and the Meuse Argonne. Immediately after the WWI armistice, soldiers of the Fifth Divi- sion in France erected a series of 28 small concrete obelisks on all of the battlefields where the division had been fighting. They all include the distinctive red diamond insignia of the division, as well as a metal plaque giving details of the fighting in the area. Almost a century later, the years have not been kind to these field memorials, as pictured on the left found on the Route de Loupy by Juvigny. But thanks to a recent local initiative, most of these sites have been thorough- ly researched and completely renovated. Mr. Jean Marie of Dun-sur-Meuse has spearheaded this extraordinary effort conducted entirely with local volunteers and funds. The before and after pictures of the memorial shown are a testament to his efforts. He runs a remarkable private museum in his home town of Dun-sur-Meuse which is well worth a visit.

  • BATTLE of the BULGE 75Th ANNIVERSARY
    BATTLE OF THE BULGE 75th ANNIVERSARY A year of remembrance... A COLLABORATION BETWEEN EDITORIAL To simply pay tribute to the tens of thousands of American soldiers who sacrificed their lives to defend democracy and freedom of expression 75 years after the Battle of the Bulge would be an insult to their memory. They deserve much more than just a ‘thank you’. Their sacrifice meant that Europe has been able to live in peace for three quarters of a century (except for the so-called civil wars which ravaged the former Yugoslavia). Today, however, war has multiple faces; it can advance surreptitiously and feed on fears and social or ethnic tensions. To honour these heroes is to try to adequately respond to the current threats to our democracies. Even in our region, freedom is not a given. It is a battle of hearts and minds that we must win every day; a battle of persuasion fought by individual citizens in the context of social exchanges, in schools and at home. It is a battle to ensure that the fundamental values of freedom, mutual respect and the fight against xenophobia and hatred are instilled deeply within us. Our gratitude to the young Americans who fell on the soil of the Ardennes is eternal. To them we owe our freedom. And to honour them we take action, today and tomorrow, to ensure that every citizen remembers and perpetuates the memory of their sacrifice for our freedom. Discover our initiatives to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge and the liberation of our territory in this events programme.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 050 361 CG 006 357 TITLE Christian Association for Psychological Studies. Proceedings of 1968, 1969, and 1970 Conventions. INSTITUTION Christian Association for Psychological Studies, Grand Rapids, Mich. PUB DATE 68 NOTE 333p. EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$13.16 DESCRIPTORS *Christianity, Churches, Church Responsibility, Clergyren, Counseling Effectiveness, *Counselor Functions, Counselor Role, *Counselors, Human Development, Maturation, Psychiatrists, Psychological Needs, *Psychological Services, Psychologists, Psychotherapy, *Religion, Therapy ABSTRACT A single theme for each of the three convention years forms the nucleus around which the presented papers revolve. The 1966 theme, The Christian's Quest for Maturity, focuses on normalcy and the ways and means whereby Christians can become more healthfully mature. In 1969, the convention examined the unique role of the Christian therapist who is viewed as having an added dimension to his counseling. The Christian using psychology to help others considers himself different and strives to meaningfully share this difference. Dynamic Christian Growth, the 1970 these, sees the Christian professional as, above all else, a Christian and, therefore, a witness. The papers are geared to providing Christians better ways to witness; - in the office, in groups, in the community, and in the church. All three series of papers ultimately explore ways of feeling with an and his problems within the context of the evangelical Christian faith.(TL) Christian Association Psychological

  • World War Ii Circular Walk
    WOrlD War ii CirCUlar WalK OCCUPATION LIBERATION memOrial plaCES UnCOvering the PAST: WOrlD War II On the 10th of May 1940, the German armed forces swept into Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. Grand Duchess Charlotte, her husband and their children went into exile along with government ministers. After travel- ling through France, Portugal and the USA, they eventu- ally arrived in Canada and Great Britain; the government in exile establishing itself in Montreal and in London. One minister, however, was unable to evacuate in time. The decision to leave Luxembourg ensured that the Head of State could not be brought under the control of the occupying forces and that Luxembourg could remain an independent political entity aligned with the allied powers in the fight against Hitler. The country remained under German military administration until the 31st of July 1940. We begin our walk outside the Luxembourg City Tourist Office on Place Guillaume II (known locally as the Knuedler). 2 1 Town Hall: Nazi rally, 1941 Place d’Armes: “Reichsarbeitsdienst”, 1942 1 “Hôtel de Ville” (Town Hall) | Located on the Knuedler, the Town Hall is the former seat of the German-appointed Mayor. After the liberation of Luxembourg in September 1944, the Town Hall served as the meeting place of the “Unio‘n vun de Letzebuerger Freihétsorganisatio‘nen” (Union of Luxembourgish Freedom Organisations). The “Unio‘n” was formed on the 23rd of March 1944 through the merger of three large Luxembourgish resistance groups: the LPL (“Lëtzebuerger Patriote-Liga” or Luxem- bourgish Patriot League); the LVL (“Lëtzebuerger Volleks Legio‘n” or Luxembourgish People‘s Legion) and the LRL (“Lëtzebuerger Ro‘de Le‘w” or Luxembourgish Red Lion).
