A WORLD WAR ONE SYMPOSIUM September 28-29, 2018 Michigan Technological University • Houghton, Michigan Armistice & Aftermath A WWI Symposium Michigan Tech, 28-29 September 2018 Proceedings Edited by Patricia Sotirin and Steven A. Walton Introduction We are pleased to bring together many of the papers presented at the Michigan Tech World War I symposium, Armistice & Aftermath. They provide various examples of how WWI affected the heartland, both during and after the war – a topic often missed in general histories, at least in the United States. American stories of WWI are relatively scarce in relation to general American military history, where the Civil War and WWII dominate, and in relation to WWI histories, which are dominated by the European combat experience. It is understandable that other countries have more robust histories and analyses of the Great War, mainly because it was so proportionally more devastating to their generation that fought: it is estimated that of the 15–19 million deaths in the war (and about 23 million wounded military personnel), France and Germany lost 4.25% and 3.8% of their entire population to deaths in the war, respectively, and two to three time more casualties who survived the war, while some other countries like the Ottoman Empire and Serbia lost 13– 18% of their population; the U.S. suffered 117,000 deaths, or 0.13% of our population at the time. This collection is not about the battlefield experiences of American troops in France, but about the hometowns, the families, wives, mothers, children, and society that was left behind while our boys (and girls: we must not forget the “Hello Girls”) were “over there”, and the effects of their return to the U.S. There are some stories that are not told in this collection, unfortunately, like the Red Summer of 1919, the violent backlash against returning African-American soldiers who were expecting more civil rights upon their return. Instead they met over two dozen riots against them across the country with hundreds killed. Instead, this volume looks at a view of how the war affected the homefront during 1918–19 and then during the roaring ‘20s that is seldom considered. We would like to thank all the speakers who were able said to contribute their papers, but also want to thank the speakers who were not able to because their papers are out for review elsewhere or otherwise committed. Our thanks also go out to the WW1CC Committee members and student helpers, for helping to make this symposium a reality. Financial support was provided by the Michigan Humanities Council,† Michigan Tech’s Institutional Equity and the Center for Diversity and Inclusion, and with support from the Carnegie Museum in Houghton and Finlandia University in Hancock, as well as the Departments of Humanities and Social Sciences here at Michigan Tech.

  • 23. Relativism and Radical Conservatism
    This is the preprint version of a book chapter published by Routledge/CRC Press in The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Relativism, edited by Martin Kusch (Abingdon: Routledge, 2020), 219–27 on December 4, 2019, available online: http://doi.org/10.4324/9781351052306-24. 23. Relativism and radical conservatism Timo Pankakoski and Jussi Backman ABSTRACT. The chapter tackles the complex, tension-ridden, and often paradoxical relationship between relativism and conservatism. We focus particularly on radical conservatism, an early twentieth-century German movement that arguably constitutes the climax of conservatism’s problematic relationship with relativism. We trace the shared genealogy of conservatism and historicism in nineteenth-century Counter-Enlightenment thought and interpret radical conservatism’s ambivalent relation to relativism as reflecting this heritage. Emphasizing national particularity, historical uniqueness, and global political plurality, Carl Schmitt and Hans Freyer moved in the tradition of historicism, stopping short of full relativism. Yet they utilized relativistic elements – such as seeing irrational decisions or the demands of “life” as the basis of politics – to discredit notions of universal political morality and law, thereby underpinning their authoritarian agendas. Oswald Spengler, by contrast, took the relativistic impulses to the extreme, interweaving his conservative authoritarianism and nationalism with full-fledged epistemic, moral, and political relativism. Martin Heidegger has recently been perceived as the key philosopher of radical conservatism, and his 1 thought arguably channeled antimodern aspects of historicism into contemporary political thought. We conclude by analyzing how some radical conservative arguments involving cultural relativism and plurality still reverberate in contemporary theorists such as Samuel Huntington, Aleksandr Dugin, and Alain de Benoist.

The "progressive profile" as developed in the Mowry-Chandler-Hofstadter thesis characterizes the progressive as one who possessed distinctive social, economic, and political qualities that distinguished him from the non-progressive. In 1965 in a political history seminar at Central Missouri State College, Warrensburg, Missouri, I tested the above model by using a single United States House representative from the state of Missouri. When I came to the Oklahoma State University in 1967, I decided to expand my test of this model by examining the thirteen representatives from Oklahoma during the years 1901 through 1917. In testing the thesis for Oklahoma, I investigated the social, economic, and political characteristics of the members whom Oklahoma sent to the United States House of Representatives during those years, and scrutinized the role they played in the formulation of domestic policy. In addition, a geographical analysis of the various Congressional districts suggested the effects the characteristics of the constituents might have on the representatives.

  • My Blue to Gold Liaison Booklet
    BLUE to GOLD LIAISON HANDBOOK 1 This booklet is dedicated to all the Blue to Gold Liaisons who do all they can to Honor and Remember Our Fallen Heroes and their Families. It is said, “a man hasn’t died as long as he is remembered.” Photo Credits: Front Cover: BSM of the High Country NC-10—Boone, NC; Back Top: BSM of the High Country NC-10—Boone, NC; Back Bottom: Blue Star Mothers of Fredericksburg VA4. 2 BLUE TO GOLD PROGRAM After the September 11 terrorist attack on American soil and impending War on the horizon, fear and sorrow entered the hearts of Blue Star Mothers. Memories of the Vietnam War surfaced. Determined not to let our Nation mar the sacrifice of the Warrior or the family left behind, the Blue to Gold program was borne out of honor, love, and respect. In military tradition, when a man or woman enters the Armed Forces of the United States of America, pledging to defend America with their life a Blue Star Banner may be displayed by their family. The Red border of the Banner represents the blood shed by past Warriors in defending our Nation. The field of White symbolizes the purity of Spirit – the price of Peace that only a Warrior understands. The Blue Star signifies loyalty, honor, and duty entrusted in our Defenders. If Fate causes the death of a defender, a smaller Gold Star for Valor and Sacrifice is placed over the Blue Star. The border of Blue is a constant reminder the Warrior and family will always be remembered and honored by the brothers and sisters who lived to tell the tale.

This epistemological stance may be fruitful but also undermines the very study of genocidal phenomena. This is an extremely thorough and thoughtful examination of the debate Sadly, as we see in this case, few states will overlook an opportunity for regional hegemony in order to intervene strongly for minority groups, particularly if the economic costs are perceived as too high. Sign in Don't already have an Oxford Academic account? Review of R. Email: akitroef haverford. Modern European History Seminar Blog. Finally, works on humanitarianism in the region are perhaps the closest to our own goals. The Making of the Greek Genocide examines how the idea of the "Greek genocide" emerged as a contested cultural trauma with nationalist and cosmopolitan dimensions. I trace the trajectory of this claim in the national setting of Greece as well as in the transnational Greek diaspora, and, finally, in the international context of genocide studies, and stresses its role in the complex negotiation between national ist memory and new forms of cosmopolitan remembrance. As is well known, a Romanian national movement developed in the nineteenth century, as a process accompanying the formation of an independent state alongside several others in Central and Southeastern Europe.

  • Of 4 Sb118/1920 BLUE STAR FAMILY LICENSE PLATE SB
    BLUE STAR FAMILY LICENSE PLATE S.B. 118: ANALYSIS AS ENACTED Senate Bill 118 (as enacted) PUBLIC ACT 51 of 2020 Sponsor: Senator Kevin Daley Senate Committee: Families, Seniors and Veterans House Committee: Military, Veterans and Homeland Security Ways and Means Date Completed: 3- 20-20 RATIONALE The Michigan Vehicle Code provides for a number of special license plates honoring military service members, veterans of declared wars or conflicts, veterans who were wounded or killed while serving in the United States Armed Forces, Purple Heart recipients, and former prisoners of war, among others (see BACKGROUND for a complete list of the military-related special plates offered by the Secretary of State). The Code allows a member of a "Gold Star Family" to apply for a special Gold Star Family registration plate (which is available to a person who has had an immediate family member die while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces if the immediate family member meets the eligibility criteria prescribed under Federal law for a Gold Star Lapel Button). However, the State did not offer a plate for an individual who has an immediate family member currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. Many observed that family members of an enlistee also feel the effects of the enlistment. In an effort to recognize those who have family members serving in the military, it was suggested that such a plate be created. CONTENT The bill amended the Michigan Vehicle Code to permit a Blue Star Family member to apply to the Secretary of State for a "Blue Star Family" special registration plate.
