THE IMPACT OF BLACK POLITICAL REPRESENTATION ON THE RACIAL ATTITUDES, POLICY PREFERENCES, AND VOTE CHOICE OF WHITES IN MINORITY MAJORITY CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS by Emmitt Y. Riley III A Dissertation Presented In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Political Science Oxford, Mississippi August 2014 Copyright © 2014 by Emmitt Y. Riley III ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Scholars examining black political representation have focused on the degree to which African American politicians can impact the everyday living conditions of African Americans. Despite years of African American political representation within the United States House of Representatives, political scientists have devoted very little scholarship to examining how whites react to African American leadership. Given that African Americans remain under represented in government and current legal challenges threaten the future of minority majority districts, it is important to gain better insight into how black representation might impact the white community.

  • Private Business to Public Service: Robert Mcnamara's Management Techniques and Their Limits in Peace And
    Private Business to Public Service: Robert McNamara’s Management Techniques and Their Limits in Peace and War by Albert J. Beveridge A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May, 2014 © 2014 Albert J. Beveridge All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT This dissertation evaluates Robert S. McNamara’s management practices during his tenure as Secretary of Defense, concluding that over- centralized decision-making proved to be the central feature of his management style with one significant exception. When it came to war, notably the Vietnam War, he undermanaged important aspects of that conflict. To better understand McNamara’s management decisions, this dissertation sets them in the context of his brilliance as a student in college and later in graduate school where he absorbed the technocratic management techniques then developing at the Harvard Business School. He applied his education successfully in the Army Air Force during World War II and later at the Ford Motor Company. As Secretary of Defense he initiated a rigorous analytic approach to the defense budget and weapons acquisition through the Planning- Programming-Budgeting System (PPBS) he installed and the associated discipline of systems analysis that he brought to the department. Yet those innovations had the perverse effect of encouraging his proclivity to concentrate on managing data rather than managing people. Through costly errors such as the TFX plane controversy, McNamara discovered the limits ii of technocratic business procedures in a public service environment which required a politically sensitive and socially adept approach. McNamara disregarded many contemporary managerial techniques and models which emphasized delegation, flexibility, and informal communication.
