AMERICAN STUDIES IN THE UNITED STATES: AN OVERVIEW By John F. Stephens An Introduction During its 60 years of formal development in the United States, American studies has established itself as a distinct interdisciplinary field that promotes a broad humanistic understanding of American culture past and present, encourages scholars from diverse disciplines to exchange ideas on America, and examines the ways American life relates to world society. American studies is simultaneously multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary in character, serving as an arena in which scholars from a variety of disciplines share their particular areas of expertise, and as a staging ground for innovative topical pursuits. American studies includes the experiences, values, perspectives, concerns and contributions of the diverse groups that make up the United States, as well as their encounters and conflicts. It seeks to understand how diversity has been constructed in a nation of conquered peoples and immigrants, who come not only from Europe, but also Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, the Near East and Latin America. But American studies recognizes that Americans also participate in a larger cultural heritage, a shared system of beliefs, behavior, symbols and material objects drawn from multiple sources throughout the world and shaped by democratic ideals and practices, through which Americans give meaning to their lives. It explores differences and commonalities, while preparing students for citizenship in a diverse, democratic state.

The U.S. Army Center of Military History: A Brief History Terrence J. Gough From ARMY HISTORY , PB-20-96-2 (No.37), Washington, D.C., Spring 1996 The Center of Military History traces its functional lineage to the Civil War era. An 1864 congressional authorization for the War Department to collect and publish the military records of the Civil War resulted in the appearance of 131 volumes of documents and maps between 1880 and 1901—a collection that remains an essential source for the study of that great national conflict. In a separate project, the War Department between 1870 and 1888 published a study (two volumes in six books) of the Union Army's medical experience, the first official histories of the U.S. Army. Although Army regulations based on the General Staff Act of 1903 recognized historical study as a proper staff function, and there was some historical activity over the next fifteen years, not until March 1918 was a Historical Branch organized in the War Plans Division (ever since this slow start, the Army has maintained a central historical office). The branch's projected comprehensive,65-volume history of U.S. Army participation in World War I never came to fruition because of postwar personnel reductions and Secretary of War Newton D. Baker's apprehension about controversy over economic, political, and diplomatic issues. He thought that the branch's work should be restricted to "the collection, indexing, and preservation of records and the preparation of such monographs as are purely military in character."

Introduction World War II was the largest and most violent armed conflict in the history of mankind. However, the half century that now separates us from that conflict has exacted its toll on our collective knowledge. While World War II continues to absorb the interest of military scholars and historians, as well as its veterans, a generation of Americans has grown to maturity largely unaware of the political, social, and military implications of a war that, more than any other, united us as a people with a common purpose. Highly relevant today, World War II has much to teach us, not only about the profession of arms, but also about military preparedness, global strategy, and combined operations in the coalition war against fascism. During the next several years, the U.S. Army will participate in the nation's 50th anniversary commemoration of World War II. The commemoration will include the publication of various materials to help educate Americans about that war. The works produced will provide great opportunities to learn about and renew pride in an Army that fought so magnificently in what has been called "the mighty endeavor." World War II was waged on land on sea, and in the air over several diverse theaters of operation for approximately six years. The following essay on the wartime mobilization effort supplements a series of studies on the Army's campaigns of that war.

The course is organized chronologically with the first half roughly focusing on a broad period, stretching from the Spanish conquest in the fifteenth century to the Spanish American War of 1898. The second half of class will focus on topics relevant to the lives of U.S. Latina/os in the twentieth century, specifically im/migration, segregation and discrimination, and finally the formation of civil and human rights movements. Students will become familiar with issues that have affected all Latinos, such as: conquest and resistance; the influence of US foreign policy on countries of origin; land loss and occupational mobility; community and cultural formation; and racial formations. Lectures, readings, and films will explore connections between the past and the present and provide students a forum to express their own viewpoints. There are no prerequisites for the course, and knowledge of the Spanish language is not required though it would be helpful at times. Your attendance at each class is crucial since most meetings will involve a discussion of materials either read or presented. I encourage all students to take advantage of office hours. If the hours above do not agree with your schedule, please feel free to arrange an alternative meeting time with me.

Search the encyclopedia : EH.Net Encyclopedia owen.turnover The online encyclopedia articles are indexed alphabetically: A B C D ... Z History of Labor Turnover in the U.S. Laura Owen, DePaul University Labor turnover measures the movement of workers in and out of employment with a particular firm. Consequently, concern with the issue and interest in measuring such movement only arose when working for an employer (rather than self-employment in craft or agricultural production) became the norm. The rise of large scale firms in the late nineteenth century and the decreasing importance (in percentage terms) of agricultural employment meant that a growing number of workers were employed by firms. It was only in this context that interest in measuring labor turnover and understanding its causes began. Trends in Labor Turnover Labor turnover is typically measured in terms of the separation rate (quits, layoffs, and discharges per 100 employees on the payroll). The aggregate data on turnover among U.S. workers is available from a series of studies focusing almost entirely on the manufacturing sector. These data show high rates of labor turnover (annual rates exceeding 100%) in the early decades of the twentieth century, substantial declines in the 1920s, significant fluctuations during the economic crisis of the 1930s and the boom of the World War II years, and a return to the low rates of the 1920s in the post-war era. (See Figure 1 and its notes.) Firm and state level data (from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries) also indicate that labor turnover rates exceeding 100 were common to many industries.

37. The U.S. Has A Liberal Media of journalists The claim that the us has a Fairness Doctrine was repealed in 1987, studies show that In the 1920s, the airwaves were unregulated, and became so http://www.huppi.com/kangaroo/L-liberalmedia.htm

Myth: The U.S. has a liberal media. Fact: The media are being increasingly monopolized by parent corporations with pro-corporate or conservative agendas. Summary Argument Conservatives often promote the myth that the U.S. media are liberal. This myth serves several purposes: it raises public skepticism about liberal news stories, hides conservative bias when it appears, and goads the media to the right. GOP strategist William Kristol also reveals another reason: "I admit it: the liberal media were never that powerful, and the whole thing was often used as an excuse by conservatives for conservative failures." (1) In unguarded moments, however, even far-right figures like Pat Buchanan come clean: "The truth is, I've gotten fairer, more comprehensive coverage of my ideas than I ever imagined I would receive." He further conceded: "I've gotten balanced coverage and broad coverage all we could have asked… For heaven sakes, we kid about the liberal media, but every Republican on earth does that." (2) So what's the real story? The fact is that conservatives have powerful friends in the media: the corporations that own them, and the corporations that pay for their advertising. These giant firms have been increasingly successful in bending the media's message to suit their self-interests, which include a conservative and pro-corporate agenda. Studies show that the media are eerily silent on the issues most important to workers, consumers and other citizens adversely affected by corporate behavior. Conservatives respond to these charges with (old) polls showing that most journalists are personally liberal, but these polls are outdated. New polls show the majority of journalists are centrists. And of those who are not centrists, there are more conservatives than liberals on economic issues. We'll explore more of this question below.

Studies Egyptian Commentary Issue 8 ,29 Feb.2004 The new Iraqi army; its military capabilities and domestic and regional role Ahmad Ibrahim Mahmoud The creation of a new Iraqi army is crucial for post-Saddam Iraq. The way in which the new army is built is one of multi-faceted significance for the future of Iraq and the political and strategic propensities of Iraqi policy. Security and defense offer the pretexts under which the Bush administration seeks to prolong its stay in Iraq. The Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA), having disbanded the old Iraqi army in a sudden and unexpected manner, has taken a ponderous approach to the building of a new army, and limited the latter's size to 60,000 men, a mere 10 percent of the disbanded force. This renders the new army incapable of assuming the responsibility of security and defense in the country, making Iraq dependent on the presence of US forces on its land for a long time to come. The CPA approach to the issues of defense and security in Iraq has been marked with such confusion that stirred controversy in Iraq as well as the US. This does not mean that the US didn't have a clear strategy on that matter right from the start. Since Paul Bremer assumed the post of CPA administrator on 7 May 2003, US strategy has been one of eliminating the remnants of Saddam's crucial institutions: the Baath Party, the armed forces, the Ministry of Interior, various security organs, and the Ministry of Information. Since then, the US has proceeded to restructure the agencies of the new Iraqi state according to its own vision.
