Goldsmith Department of History Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Nancy MacLean, Supervisor ___________________________ Edward J. Balleisen ___________________________ Adriane Lentz-Smith ___________________________ Gary Gereffi ___________________________ Helen Ladd An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of Duke University 2018 Copyright by William D. Goldsmith 2018 Abstract This dissertation shows how an array of policymakers, invested in uprooting an unequal political economy descended from the plantation system and Jim Crow, gravitated to education as a centerpiece of development strategy, and why so many are still disappointed in its outcomes. By looking at state-wide policymaking in North Carolina and policy effects in the state’s black belt counties, this study shows why the civil rights movement was vital for shifting state policy in former Jim Crow states towards greater investment in human resources. By breaking down employment barriers to African Americans and opening up the South to new people and ideas, the civil rights movement fostered a new climate for economic policymaking, and a new ecosystem of organizations flourished to promote equitable growth.

  • Derogatory Discourses of Veganism and the Reproduction of Speciesism in UK 1 National Newspapers Bjos 1348 134..152
    The British Journal of Sociology 2011 Volume 62 Issue 1 Vegaphobia: derogatory discourses of veganism and the reproduction of speciesism in UK 1 national newspapers bjos_1348 134..152 Matthew Cole and Karen Morgan Abstract This paper critically examines discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers in 2007. In setting parameters for what can and cannot easily be discussed, domi- nant discourses also help frame understanding. Discourses relating to veganism are therefore presented as contravening commonsense, because they fall outside readily understood meat-eating discourses. Newspapers tend to discredit veganism through ridicule, or as being difficult or impossible to maintain in practice. Vegans are variously stereotyped as ascetics, faddists, sentimentalists, or in some cases, hostile extremists. The overall effect is of a derogatory portrayal of vegans and veganism that we interpret as ‘vegaphobia’. We interpret derogatory discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers as evidence of the cultural reproduction of speciesism, through which veganism is dissociated from its connection with debates concerning nonhuman animals’ rights or liberation. This is problematic in three, interrelated, respects. First, it empirically misrepresents the experience of veganism, and thereby marginalizes vegans. Second, it perpetuates a moral injury to omnivorous readers who are not presented with the opportunity to understand veganism and the challenge to speciesism that it contains. Third, and most seri- ously, it obscures and thereby reproduces

It has been a splendid privilege to watch the selflessness Janet Saltzman Chafetz A and devotion with which section members nurture the growth of sociological theory and its chief institutional steward, the Theory Section.

  • On Vegetarianism(S) and Food Choices
    On Vegetarianism(s) and Food Choices “The symbolism of meat-eating is never neutral. To himself, the meat-eater seems to be eating life. To the vegetarian, he seems to be eating death. There is a kind of gestalt-shift between the two positions…” (Midgley) Steven Davis, “The Least Harm Principle May Require that Humans Consume a Diet...of...Large Herbivores” • What is the argument here, following Regan’s least harm principle? Can you see any different alternatives (see freeganism…) other than the ones he mentions (local agriculture, larger herbivores, ‘everyone hunt’) • This article is a good example of heavily debatable statistics—how does he get his numbers? • Does the question of intentionality matter? (i.e., intended vs. unintended/incidental deaths—246) James Rachels, “The Basic Argument for Vegetarianism” • What is the “basic argument” according to Rachels? (two steps, on 260) • Quoting Scully’s Dominion on pigs and the Omnivore’s Dilemma on ‘steer No. 534’, in a “premodern city” • “it is natural for people to resist arguments that require them to do things they don’t want to do” (how much does this account for opposition to reform, do you think?) Also, “if all of your friends are eating meat, you are unlikely to be moved by a mere argument.” (Pollan, Anthony Bourdain, and others also mention the specifically social aspects of eating, and how being a vegetarian (etc.) can often remove you from important forms of social community). • “Eating shrimp may turn out to be acceptable” from an animal welfare perspective—are there others? Kathryn Paxton George, “A Paradox of Ethical Vegetarianism: Unfairness to Women and Children” • George is saying that Regan/Singer’s ethical requirements “unfairly penalize people who live in certain kinds of economic and environmental circumstances,” because they are “nutritionally vulnerable….All current arguments for ethical vegetarianism treat such nutritional vulnerability as an exception rather than as a norm.

    Memorial Tributes: Volume 8 BEN RICH 200 Copyright National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved. Memorial Tributes: Volume 8 BEN RICH 201 Ben Rich 1925-1995 By Willis M. Hawkins Ben Rich died on January 5, 1995, after a full career as an engineer, a designer, and an effective and cherished executive. I first knew Ben when he joined the Lockheed Aircraft Company in Burbank back in 1950. He came to us from the University of California, Berkeley, and University of California, Los Angeles, with a master's degree in mechanical engineering. At the time, I was in charge of the Advanced Design Organization under the Deputy Chief Engineer C. L. "Kelly" Johnson, and we were working on our first Mach 2+ Air Force fighter proposal, which became the F-104. Ben was assigned the task of analyzing the aerothermodynamic performance of the power plant with little or no existing state of the art for supersonic inlets. It is a testament to Ben's understanding of this specialty that the inlet configuration was classified by the Air Force and the details obscured in Air Force-released pictures of the airplane for a number of years. The Lockheed "Skunk Works," which had originated during the design and development of the original P-80 prototype "Lulu-Belle," was being reactivated at about the time that the F-104 was conceived. Its specific purpose was the secret development of the U-2, and Ben was ''borrowed" by Kelly Johnson to help on that program. His "temporary'' assignment became his career. Under Kelly, Ben pursued his specialty of aerothermodynamic analysis.

  • Here Ideas Are Genuineh Wdangerous
    BY FRANK SMYTH AN SALVADOR-Several months ago a friend in­ vi ted me to his sociology class. "Come on," he said, "we're going to see a movie." Beaches, starringBette Midler, was the day's discussion subject. Students milled about the audito­ rium, many in Levis and Reeboks. With a Coke and popcorn in hand, I felt as close to home as a foreigner can feel in El Salvador. EntreAmigos-"Among Friends"­ is how the movie title was translated into Spanish. Readers may be famil­ iar with the plot: two young girls meet by chance in California and build a friendship that stretches to lew York and lasts for life. When the lights came on, a tall man with a long greying beard took his place at the front of the class. He spoke in a deep raspy voice. "What does it mean to be friends?" he asked paternally. "What does it mean to have a friendship?" But the discussion soon took its own track. "What is the meaning of friendship," asked one woman, "in the midst ofwar?" A Salvadoran soldier interrogates a suspected guerilla during the November fighting in San Salvador. BOSTON COLLEGE MAGAZINE 21 But I made the trip alone.
