  • The Gordian Knot: Apartheid & the Unmaking of the Liberal World Order, 1960-1970
    THE GORDIAN KNOT: APARTHEID & THE UNMAKING OF THE LIBERAL WORLD ORDER, 1960-1970 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Ryan Irwin, B.A., M.A. History ***** The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Peter Hahn Professor Robert McMahon Professor Kevin Boyle Professor Martha van Wyk © 2010 by Ryan Irwin All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the apartheid debate from an international perspective. Positioned at the methodological intersection of intellectual and diplomatic history, it examines how, where, and why African nationalists, Afrikaner nationalists, and American liberals contested South Africa’s place in the global community in the 1960s. It uses this fight to explore the contradictions of international politics in the decade after second-wave decolonization. The apartheid debate was never at the center of global affairs in this period, but it rallied international opinions in ways that attached particular meanings to concepts of development, order, justice, and freedom. As such, the debate about South Africa provides a microcosm of the larger postcolonial moment, exposing the deep-seated differences between politicians and policymakers in the First and Third Worlds, as well as the paradoxical nature of change in the late twentieth century. This dissertation tells three interlocking stories. First, it charts the rise and fall of African nationalism. For a brief yet important moment in the early and mid-1960s, African nationalists felt genuinely that they could remake global norms in Africa’s image and abolish the ideology of white supremacy through U.N.

  • U.S.-South Korea Relations
    U.S.-South Korea Relations Mark E. Manyin, Coordinator Specialist in Asian Affairs Emma Chanlett-Avery Specialist in Asian Affairs Mary Beth D. Nikitin Specialist in Nonproliferation Brock R. Williams Analyst in International Trade and Finance Jonathan R. Corrado Research Associate May 23, 2017 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41481 U.S.-South Korea Relations Summary Overview South Korea (officially the Republic of Korea, or ROK) is one of the United States’ most important strategic and economic partners in Asia. Congressional interest in South Korea is driven by both security and trade interests. Since the early 1950s, the U.S.-ROK Mutual Defense Treaty commits the United States to help South Korea defend itself. Approximately 28,500 U.S. troops are based in the ROK, which is included under the U.S. “nuclear umbrella.” Washington and Seoul cooperate in addressing the challenges posed by North Korea. The two countries’ economies are joined by the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (KORUS FTA). South Korea is the United States’ seventh-largest trading partner and the United States is South Korea’s second- largest trading partner. Between 2009 and the end of 2016, relations between the two countries arguably reached their most robust state in decades. Political changes in both countries in 2017, however, have generated uncertainty about the state of the relationship. Coordination of North Korea Policy Dealing with North Korea is the dominant strategic concern of the relationship. The Trump Administration appears to have raised North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs to a top U.S.

  • Presidential Transitions: Issues Involving Outgoing and Incoming Administrations
    Order Code RL34722 Presidential Transitions: Issues Involving Outgoing and Incoming Administrations Updated November 25, 2008 L. Elaine Halchin Coordinator Government and Finance Division Presidential Transitions: Issues Involving Outgoing and Incoming Administrations Summary The smooth and orderly transfer of power can be a notable feature of presidential transitions, and a testament to the legitimacy and durability of the electoral and democratic processes. Yet, at the same time, a variety of events, decisions, and activities contribute to what some may characterize as the unfolding drama of a presidential transition. Interparty transitions in particular might be contentious. Using the various powers available, a sitting President might use the transition period to attempt to secure his legacy or effect policy changes. Some observers have suggested that, if the incumbent has lost the election, he might try to enact policies in the waning months of his presidency that would “tie his successor’s hands.” On the other hand, a President-elect, eager to establish his policy agenda and populate his Administration with his appointees, will be involved in a host of decisions and activities, some of which might modify or overturn the previous Administration’s actions or decisions. Both the incumbent and the newly elected President can act unilaterally, through executive orders, recess appointments, and appointments to positions that do not require Senate confirmation. Additionally, a President can appoint individuals to positions that require Senate confirmation, and a presidential administration can influence the pace and substance of agency rulemaking. The disposition of government records (including presidential records and vice presidential records), the practice of “burrowing in” (which involves the conversion of political appointees to career status in the civil service), and the granting of pardons are three activities associated largely with the outgoing President’s Administration.

  • 1- BRUNEL: Welcome to Another Episode of Getting the Most
    BRUNEL: Welcome to another episode of Getting the Most Out of IBM U2. I'm Kenny Brunel, and I'm your host for today's episode, and today we're going to talk about IBM U2's latest technology, U2.NET. First of all, what is .NET? So I'm going to turn my attention, first of all, to a guest that I have in the studio with me today in Denver, Dave Peters. Dave is the product manager for the U2 data servers and the client tools, and Dave has been with IBM for over 12 years. What can you tell us about U2.NET? But first of all could you give us a brief rundown or a description of what .NET is itself. PETERS: Sure, Kenny. .NET is really a development framework architected by Microsoft. This is the framework that Microsoft hopes that will be the development choice for any new development on Windows. It consists of user-defined interfaces, data access, database connectivity, cryptography, Web application development and communications. IBM has three options for U2 developers that want to access the U2 data servers using .NET. The first I'll mention is [UniObjects] for .NET or UO.NET. UO.NET is a MultiValue API for use in the .NET applications. It's very familiar within -1- the constructs and was introduced to help Basic programmers get to .NET very easily. And one good thing is it's simple to get. UO .NET is available on the client CD that comes with either UniVerse or UniData. The second option is, the long name is IBM database add-ins for Visual Studio or as we refer to it as IBM .NET.
