    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY "Croak" Carter: Radio's Voice of Doom HEN Westbrook Pegler, who hated almost everybody, died, an associate might have said in all candor: "He was the Wclosest thing newspaper journalism ever had to a Boake Carter." Carter was an extraordinarily powerful and effective critic of the New Deal before Pearl Harbor, especially between 1935 and 1938, when there were few commercially-sponsored news commen- tators on the air. Administration leaders frequently mentioned their extreme dislike of him. Carter's greatest national prominence, or notoriety, occurred during 1937 and the early part of the following year. After August, 1938, he was banned from the major networks. At the time, some of his millions of nightly listeners were certain that Franklin D. Roosevelt had been responsible. Although the news analyst spoke over the Mutual Broadcasting System from Septem- ber, 1939, on, he never regained his popularity and died in 1944, already largely forgotten. Today, another look is in order. Histor- ians realize the importance of radio in understanding American society before 1941. For that reason, the career of such a notorious radio personality has particular interest. Carter relished controversy. "Meat is in argument," he once said. "If I can provide an argument, so much the better."1 The commen- 1 Newsweek, July 18,1936, 26. 287 288 DAVID H. CULBERT July tator seemed to feel that his success was directly proportional to the number of enemies he made. And there were many. The Secretary of the Interior dubbed him "Croak" Carter. Ickes claimed that the newscaster could "enter any intellectual goldfish-swallowing contest and the result would be as impressive as his journalistic career."2 A distinguished journalist, making no attempt to disguise his loath- ing, termed the broadcaster a "mercenary poseur."3 Early in his career, Carter claimed to have studied the techniques of Detroit's demagogic radio priest, Father Coughlin.4 If so, he was an apt pupil.

  • Equality and Participation
    Equality and Participation Distribution of Outcomes in Participatory Processes for Managing Natural Resources Alba Mohedano Roldán Academic dissertation for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science at Stockholm University to be publicly defended on Friday 1 June 2018 at 13.00 in Hörsal 9, hus D, Universitetsvägen 10 D. Abstract Social justice has become an intrinsic feature of sustainable development. One of the ways in which it is expected we will reach more just and sustainable societies is through stakeholder participation in natural resource management. However, entrenched inequalities among participants have generated scepticism about the potential of participation to improve social justice and, until now, the literature has not provided sufficient evidence to disentangle such contradictory views. Approaching social justice from the viewpoint of equality, this dissertation contributes to the debate by studying how the socio-political structure in which participation is embedded affects how far participation outcomes respect equality. The political regime, the distribution of power at the local level, and the characteristics of the participatory process are conceived as embodiments of such socio-political structure. The impact of these three structural factors on outcome equality is studied in biosphere reserves, areas designated by UNESCO as sites for experimenting with sustainable development strategies through stakeholder participation. Survey panel data from biosphere reserve managers and interview data with stakeholders are used in large-n, medium-n, and small-n analyses to explore to what extent, and under which circumstances, participation can lead to equal outcomes. The results suggest that, although in nondemocratic states participation has more difficulty promoting equal outcomes than in democratic states, and that although participation leads to generally unequal outcomes in unequal contexts, some participation outcomes can approach an egalitarian ideal even in these unexpected settings.

  • I. F. Stone Encounters with Soviet Intelligence
    HoI. F.ll Stone:and Encounters with Soviet Intelligence I. F.Stone Encounters with Soviet Intelligence ✣ Max Holland Of all the disclosures contained in the notebooks of Alexander Vassiliev, few are likely to be more contentious than those involving the jour- nalist I. F. Stone. From April 1936 until at least the fall of 1938, according to the note- books, Stone acted as a “talent spotter,” helping to identify or recruit other Americans who might be receptive to assisting Soviet intelligence.1 Under the assigned codename of “Blin,” Stone also acted as a courier, conveying mes- sages between a Soviet intelligence ofªcer and his American agent. These were intelligence functions, having nothing to do with being an editorial writer for the New York Post, Stone’s main occupation at the time. Vassiliev’s notes also reveal that Stone passed along privileged information that might be deemed useful for intelligence purposes. Altogether, these activities either contravene or, as this essay will argue, greatly complicate widely held views about Stone and his status as an icon of journalism. When Stone died in June 1989 at the age of 81, all three major television networks announced his death on their news shows as if he were a household name rather than a print journalist whose work had appeared primarily in elite publications normally associated with the country’s intelligentsia. Stone was hailed as the living embodiment of the ªrst amendment, a ªercely inde- pendent journalist opposed to the “Washington Insiderism” that often blights reporting from the nation’s capital.2 Both The Washington Post, Stone’s local paper, and The New York Times ran full obituaries, editorials of praise, and ap- preciations in several op-ed pieces.

  • Aussichtlose Sondierung. Japanische Friedensfühler Und Schwedische
    GERHARD KREBS AUSSICHTSLOSE SONDIERUNG Japanische Friedensfühler und schwedische Vermittlungsversuche 1944/45 1. Der Gesandte Bagge in Japan Am 15. November 1941, etwa drei Wochen vor Beginn des Krieges im Pazifik, be­ schloß in Tokyo die aus den Spitzen von Regierung und Militär bestehende „Verbin­ dungskonferenz", zur Beendigung des bevorstehenden Konfliktes vorsorglich die di­ plomatischen Bande zu neutralen Nationen wie südamerikanischen Ländern, Schwe­ den, Portugal oder dem Vatikan zu stärken1. Erst im Jahre 1944 aber und dann ver­ stärkt um die Zeit der deutschen Kapitulation herum begannen halbherzige Versuche, Friedenskontakte anzuknüpfen. Die Idee, Stockholm möge eine Kriegsbeendigung zwischen Japan und den angelsächsischen Mächten vermitteln, ging von dem Ge­ schäftsführenden Direktor der Tageszeitung Asahi Shinbun aus, Suzuki Bunshiro2. Dieser verfügte über gute Verbindungen zur politischen Welt und war außerdem seit vielen Jahren mit dem schwedischen Gesandten in Tokyo, Widar Bagge, befreundet3. Suzuki schlug im September des Jahres 1944 eine - als Idee der Stockholmer Re­ gierung auszugebende - schwedische Vermittlung bei England vor, von dem man mehr Verständnis als von den USA erwartete. Bagge warnte jedoch, wenn es sich da­ bei nur um eine private Initiative seines Gesprächspartners handeln sollte, würde sich der Plan nicht verwirklichen lassen. Daher suchte Suzuki Rückendeckung und erstat­ tete dem Fürsten Konoe Fumimaro Bericht, einem ehemaligen Premierminister, der mit einer Gruppe prominenter Persönlichkeiten seit Jahren einen Friedensschluß an­ strebte. Dieser sagte zwar weder „ja" noch „nein", erweckte aber den Eindruck der Zustimmung4. Bagge gewann aus Suzukis Kontakten jedoch den offensichtlich fal­ schen Eindruck, Fürst Konoe selbst habe den Friedensfühler veranlaßt. Diese Anga­ be fand sich daher nicht nur in seinen Telegrammen an das schwedische Außenmini- 1 Sanbohonbu-hen [Generalstab] (Hrsg.), Sugiyama memo.

  • Swedish Trade and Trade Policies Towards Lebanon 1920-1965
    Swedish trade and trade policies towards Lebanon 1920-1965 Ahmad Hussein Department of Economic History ISBN: 978-91-7459-144-6 ISSN: 1653-7475 Occasional Papers in Economic History No. 17/2011 Licentiate Thesis Occasional Papers in Economic History No. 17, 2011 © Ahmad Hussein, 2011 Department of Economic History S-901 87 Umeå University www.umu.se/ekhist 2 Abstract This licentiate thesis examines the development of Swedish–Lebanese trade relations and the changes of significance for Swedish trade towards Lebanon during the period 1920-1965. The aim of the study is to explore how Sweden as representing a small, open Western economy could develop its economic interests in the emerging Middle East market characterised both by promising economic outlooks, and a high degree of political instability during the age of decolonisation, Cold War logic, and intricate commercial and geo-political factors. The study shows that the Swedish trade with Lebanon was very small during the Interwar period. It was neither possible to find any formal Swedish-Lebanese trade agreements before 1945. In the Post- War period, the promotion of Swedish trade and trade policies towards Lebanon witnessed more interests from the both parties. Two categories of explanations were found for the periods of 1946-53 and 1954-65 respectively. In the first period the Swedish-Lebanese trade developed in a traditional direction with manufactured goods being exported from Sweden and agricultural products being exported from Lebanon. Furthermore, there were no trade agreements between the two countries. In the second period, several Lebanese attempts were made to conclude bilateral trade agreement with Sweden in hope to change the traditional trade direction, and to improve the Lebanese balance of trade.

Adviser Department of Speech PREFACE Although commercial radio in this country was horn and managed to gather up a full head of develop­ mental steam in the 1920's, the mass radio medium did not reach full maturity until two decades later when American involvement in World War II pressured radio to achieve its "finest hour." Once limited to to situation comedies and soap operas, network radio offered the human drama of death, devestation, and despair to a nation at war in the 194-0's. Radio became a companion; a constant source of information and inspiration against which the print medium could not compete. This study presents a detailed investigation of . network radio's activities during the Second World War. The networks were each composed of a main sta­ tion in New York City and a varying number of local or affiliated stations around the country. As a limit­ ing factor, the contributions of such local stations, apart from their role as network disseminators, will not be discussed.
