Colby* This Article approaches the originalism debate from a new angle— through the lens of the recently defeated Federal Marriage Amendment. There was profound and very public disagreement about the meaning of the FMA—in particular about the effect that it would have had on civil unions. The inescapable conclusion is that there was no original public meaning of the FMA with respect to the civil unions question. This suggests that often the problem with originalism is not just that the original public meaning of centuries-old provisions of the Constitution is hard to find (especially by judges untrained in history). The problem is frequently much more funda- mental, and much more fatal; it is that there was no original public mean- ing to begin with.

  • Time Enough at Last
    the The Newsletter of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture • Spring 2014 The University of Mississippi Time Enough at Last Charles Reagan Wilson Retires from Teaching to Focus on Writing Projects David Wharton Charles Reagan Wilson brought together everything from Hank Aaron to Zydeco as coeditor of the Encyclopedia of Southern Culture, and now his final chapter at the University of Mississippi is complete. After 33 years as a history and Southern Studies professor, Wilson retires in May. During his three decades at UM, Wilson has watched both the Center and the university grow. “When I came here the undergraduate program had just been established, so we had less than ten majors, and we were constantly having to justi- fy the program with administrators,” Wilson says. “We didn’t have a master’s program until 1987, and we never anticipated the master’s program would grow that much. That has been one of the most dramatic changes since I’ve been here.” In 1981 the university grounds were mostly dirt, gravel, and open space, with buildings in need of renovation. “Barnard Observatory was particularly fascinating because it was such an old building and it had such character, but it was in a Tennessee Williams state of decline,” Wilson says. “So you had that sense of a wonderful physical setting to study the South, and that was kind of the campus, too.” Ann Abadie, associate director emeritus, says that Wilson made quite a name for himself during his time at UM. “He came to the University of Mississippi for an interview in ear- ly 1981 and, after visiting with him and hearing his lecture on religion in the South, Bill Ferris, Sue Hart, and I, along with many others affiliated with the Center for the Study of Southern Culture, knew that he would be the perfect director for our encyclopedia project,” Abadie says.

Du Bois At presidential election time in 1 992, America is once again looking at limited political options for national leadership. The Republican party platform is its most conservative ever. The Democratic party ticket is domi- nated by southern Dixiecrats. And we who have marched and organized, and risked and sacrificed much for racial equality and political empowerment, must now match our sense of foreboding with our determination to meet the challenge before us.

  • US-Außenminister John Kerry Und Der Krieg Ein Essay Über Biographische Kontinuität Und Amerikanische Politik
    US-Außenminister John Kerry und der Krieg Page 1 of 11 Quelle: http://www.zeitgeschichte-online.de/thema/us-aussenminister-john-kerry-und-der-krieg Mai 2016 US-Außenminister John Kerry und der Krieg Ein Essay über biographische Kontinuität und amerikanische Politik von Ariane Leendertz Veröffentlicht: Mai 2016 Der Vietnamkrieg, prophezeite das Magazin Der Spiegel im Sommer 1971, ist für die USA auch dann noch nicht zu Ende, wenn der letzte G.I. Indochina verlassen hat.[1] In der Tat wurde der Vietnamkrieg Amerikas Vergangenheit, die nicht vergehen wollte. Die gesellschaftlichen und politischen Nachwirkungen des Krieges spürte das Land bis zum Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts. Konkurrierende Deutungen der Ereignisse prägten politische Kultur und öffentliche Debatten, gegensätzliche Positionen blieben auf Jahrzehnte latent, emotionale und ideologische Blockaden erschwerten einen vergangenheitspolitischen Konsens. Die politische Biographie des amerikanischen Außenministers John Kerry ist untrennbar mit dieser Geschichte verflochten. Vor 45 Jahren wurde Kerry, der von 1966 bis 1970 in der US-Navy diente, innerhalb weniger Monate zum öffentlichen Gesicht der Antikriegsbewegung in den USA. 1971 zählte er zu den Anführern einer mehrtägigen Protestaktion von Veteranen in Washington DC. Einen ihrer Höhepunkte markierte die Anhörung des eloquenten Absolventen der Eliteuniversität Yale vor dem Foreign Relations Committee des amerikanischen Senats am 22. April 1971, durch die Kerry auf einen Schlag die Aufmerksamkeit des politischen Establishments auf sich zog. Seine Sätze „How do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam? How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?“ sind in das kulturelle und mediale Gedächtnis der Vereinigten Staaten eingegangen.

  • Institute of Politics John F.Kennedy School of Government
    1986-1987 Institute of Politics John F.Kennedy School of Government Harvard University PROCEEDINGS Institute of Politics 1986-87 John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard University I, FOREWORD The year 1986-87 has been a time of transition at the Institute of Politics with the departure of director Jonathan Moore in September 1986, the arrival of new director Dick Thomburgh in June 1987, and the departure of six members of the staff including two of the longest-serving who are on leaves of absence—fellows program coordinator Theresa Donovan and student pro­ gram coordinator Sonia Wallenberg. As we go to press, three slaffmembers—associate direc­ tor Paul G. Bograd, assistant director Mary McTigue and special assistant to the director Wendy M. O'Donnell—prepare to go on to new responsibilities elsewhere. This year has also been an exciting and productive one under the leadership of Mary McTigue who as acting director from September through May conducted the affairs of the Institute with wisdom, grace and efficiency, and with a sensihvity and sense of humor that never failed even on the most trying of days. It has been a pleasure to have worked under her guidance and it is with sadness that we see her depart. We wish her success in her future endeavors. This ninth edition of Proceedings contains the 1986-87 selection of readings excerpted from speeches, articles, panel discussions, books and reports and a complete rosier of 1986-87 pro­ grams and participants. The selected readings provide a sense of the actors encountered and the issues discussed; the programs section identifies both the scope and the personnel of the Institute's yearly undertakings.
