American Patriotism in a Global Society

American Patriotism in a Global Society

Betty Jean Craige

State University of New York Press

pokkari
Argues that the transformation of our world into a global society is causing a resurgence of tribalism at the same time that it is inspiring the ideology of political holism and global interdependence.This book argues that the transformation of our world into a global society is causing a resurgence of tribalism at the same time that it is inspiring the ideology of political holism—the understanding of human society as an evolving global system of interdependent individuals, cultures, and nations. Betty Jean Craige examines the "patriotic" resistance to globalization in the United States by examining a number of recent historical events, including the Persian Gulf War, the 1988 presidential campaign, and the Iran-Contra scandal.

Students of nature around the world revere Eugene Odum as a founder and pioneer of ecosystem ecology. In this biography of Odum, Betty Jean Craige depicts the intellectual growth, creativity, and vision of the scientist who made the ecosystem concept central to his discipline and translated the principles of ecosystem ecology into lessons in preserving the natural environment.Placing Odum's achievements in historical context, Craige traces his life from his childhood through his education, his collaboration with his brother Howard T. Odum in developing methods to study ecosystems, his contributions to the field of radiation ecology, his emergence as an internationally distinguished educator of ecosystem ecology, and his environmental activism. Craige also describes Odum's role in the creation of the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory, the Marine Institute on Sapelo Island, and the Institute of Ecology at the University of Georgia, where he became identified with the statement "The ecosystem is greater than the sum of its parts."Odum's textbook Fundamentals of Ecology is a classic, published in numerous editions and translations worldwide. Odum achieved membership in the National Academy of Sciences, shared with his brother the prestigious Crafoord Prize for Ecology, accepted six honorary doctorates, and received numerous awards for environmental activities.

Reconnection

An openly polemical work, Reconnection seeks a way of returning the humanities to their place at the center of human life. For the past three hundred years, to study the humanities has implied an isolation from politics, science, and society. Literary studies, in particular, have often fallen prey to this isolation by viewing novels, plays, and poems as impassive verbal icons, as texts to be explicated without reference to political context or social significance.Seeking a way of ending this self-imposed exile of the humanities from the turmoil of social issues and concerns, Betty Jean Craige looks to the contextual, nondisciplinary thought that began to take hold in academia during the 1960s—a development that echoed the rising political awareness brought to the universities by the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, and women’s liberation. Recently, this emergent openness in the university has come under attack by conservative critics who have sought to roll back the movement for nontraditional inquiry in academia and to reassert the dominance of hierarchical, canonical thought.By tracing the ideological history of literary studies, Craige shows that this reactionary goal of reimposing canonical thought is, in time, doomed to failure—the age of the discipline is over. In its place, Craige calls for the creation of a holistic system of learning that will emphasize interdisciplinary and nondisciplinary research, reconnecting literary studies with history and philosophy, with science and politics, restoring literature itself to a central place in our intellectual discourse and social debate.

"[Looks] at adoption from all sides of the triangle: adoptee, birth mother, adoptive parents . . . A provocative, comprehensive inquiry." ---Kirkus Reviews"Honest and moving."---New York Times"Important and powerful . . . [the author] is concerned not just with adoptees but with the experience of adoptive parents and birth parents." ---Psychology Today"A moving and powerful plea for open discourse instead of secrecy among the participants in the adoption process." ---Public Welfare, American Public Welfare AssociationThe first edition of Betty Jean Lifton's Lost and Found advanced the adoption rights movement in this country in 1979, challenging many states' policies of maintaining closed birth records. For nearly three decades the book has topped recommended reading lists for those who seek to understand the effects of adoption---including adoptees, adoptive parents, birth parents, and their friends and families.This expanded and updated edition, with new material on the controversies concerning adoption, artificial insemination, and newer reproductive technologies, continues to add to the discussion on this important topic. A new preface and afterword by the author have been added, as well as a greatly expanded resources section that in addition to relevant organizations now lists useful Web sites.Betty Jean Lifton, Ph.D., is a writer, psychotherapist, and leading advocate for adoption reform. Her many books include Journey of the Adopted Self and The King of Children, a New York Times Notable Book. She regularly makes appearances as a lecturer on adoption and has an adoption counseling practice in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and New York City.

By: Betty Dill, Pub. 1999, Reprinted 2014, 240 pages, Index, ISBN #0-89308-717-3Spartanburg County is an important county for South Carolina researchers due to the wagon road heading out of Columbia going West. These Deed Abstracts come from books AA-BB. Deeds are one of favorite research tools of the genealogists due to the wide variety of family connections found within them. Not only will the reader find the deed transaction itself, but often times such things as: marriages, relinquishments of dower, divisions of family farms among heirs, remarriages of widows are just a few of the matters you can anticipate finding within records of deeds. Spartanburg County is surrounded by the present day counties of Cherokee, Greenville, Laurens, and Union Counties, S.C. and to the North by Cleveland, Polk and Rutherford Counties, N.C. Spartanburg County was a very important migration path within S.C due to the wagon road heading north out of Columbia heading directely into Spartanburg County.
