In Nigeriauniversity graduates perform a year of civilian service after completionof their education, while in Botswana, national servicecomes before attendance at a university. In Costa Rica all universitystudents perform community service througha university program. A proposed system of national service in India would require servicefrom government employees and college studentsas two groups who benefit the most from the country'sresources.

What is the relationship between political and social revolution? How can state institutions serve as tools for political change? What is the basis for mass collective political agency? And how can intellectual work contribute to broader emancipatory political movements? Through textual and historical analysis, this dissertation examines how Latin American intellectuals and political actors have reframed and answered these questions in changing historical circumstances.

  • 2017-2018 Academic Year 02
    CELEBRATING THE HUMANITIES 2017-2018 Academic Year 02 LETTER FROM THE DEAN TYLER STOVALL As we come to the end of another academic year, many of us are no doubt grateful for the relative calm we have experienced since last year. National politics remains turbulent, but there have been no new changes or transitions comparable to those of a year ago. If last year was a time of drama, this has been more one of reassessment and new beginnings. It has been my pleasure to welcome new colleagues to the Humanities Division. History of Consciousness has two new faculty, Banu Bargu and Massimiliano Tomba, whose presence has brought new dynamism to the department. Ryan Bennett and Amanda Rysling joined the Linguistics department as assistant professors. I’m also pleased to welcome Literature professor Marlene Tromp, who so wanted to join us she consented to accept an administrative position as Campus Provost/Executive Vice Chancellor! At the same time, I must say farewell to some valued colleagues. Professors Tyrus Miller and Deanna Shemek are moving to faculty positions at UC Irvine, where Tyrus will also serve as Dean of the Humanities. Professors Bettina Aptheker, Jim McCloskey, and Karen Tei Yamashita retired from the university, although I hope they will remain active as emeriti faculty. Finally, I must acknowledge and mourn the passing of professor emeritus Hayden V. White. One of the most renowned and influential faculty members at UC Santa Cruz, Hayden White left a rich legacy to History of Consciousness, the Humanities, and UC Santa Cruz in general. This has also been a year of new initiatives.

  • The UC Santa Cruz Budget – a Bird's Eye View
    Office of Planning and Budget 2012-13 Edition The UC Santa Cruz Budget – A Bird’s Eye View Message from Office of Planning and Budget… December 2012 On behalf of the staff in Planning and Budget, I am happy to provide you with the 2012-13 edition of The Those birds have a good view of the budget. Birds Eye View. This document provides a unique look at the permanent operating budget for the campus and each of its major units. It includes recent data on the degrees conferred, the majors of our students, the number of faculty budgeted in each department, enrollments by department, and extramural awards. You can find it on the web at http://planning.ucsc.edu/budget/reports/birdseye. UCSC has implemented cuts in each of the past five years. While the cuts have been primarily in the core-funded areas, the impact has been felt throughout the campus. The passage of Proposition 30—and steps taken by the UC Office of the President to renew discussions with the State concerning the longer term funding needs of the University—represents the prospect for California to put public higher education back on a pathway toward fiscal stability. If the State and the UC Regents each agree on a multi-year financial plan for UC, this will create an opportunity for UCSC to create our own multi-year path. While additional cuts will be needed in 2013-14 to address the budget shortfall from 2012-13, we are cautiously optimistic that we can begin to plan for more budget stability.

    CAMP WILLIAM JAMES AND ROSENSTOCK-HUESSY'S VISION OF CHRISTIANITY IN THE THIRD MILLENNIUM Clinton C. Gardner A paper presented at the ERH Society conference on November 12-13, 2010, at Dartmouth College, on William James and Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy This paper is for private distribution only. It may not be copied or quoted without the permission of the author. Clinton C. Gardner P.O. Box 710, Norwich, VT 05055 802-649-1451 [email protected] 1 2 CAMP WILLAM JAMES AND ROSENSTOCK-HUESSY'S VISION OF CHRISTIANITY IN THE THIRD MILLENNIUM Clinton C. Gardner INTRODUCTION As I thought about what to say in this paper, it soon came to me that I had written three books on precisely this theme. [BB, DB, LM] Those books, in turn, had been based on journal notes that I’d begun in the fall of 1940—when I’d first attended a Rosenstock-Huessy course at Dartmouth. I was bowled over by his impassioned lectures at that time. Then, in spring of 1941, I heard his friend Dorothy Thompson deliver a Dartmouth lecture—to a large part of the student body—urging us to quit college and join Camp William James, a volunteer service project that had just lost it government funding. Half it members were from the regular CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) and half were recent graduates of Dartmouth and Harvard. Rosenstock- Huessy had been a key figure in the founding of that project, during 1940, and had told us about it in class. Well, after hearing Dorothy Thompson, I decided to quit college—and joined the camp in June.
