Download or read book New Deal Cowboy written by Michael Duchemin and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known to Americans as the “singing cowboy,” beloved entertainer Gene Autry (1907–1998) appeared in countless films, radio broadcasts, television shows, and other venues. While Autry’s name and a few of his hit songs are still widely known today, his commitment to political causes and public diplomacy deserves greater appreciation. In this innovative examination of Autry’s influence on public opinion, Michael Duchemin explores the various platforms this cowboy crooner used to support important causes, notably Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal and foreign policy initiatives leading up to World War II. As a prolific performer of western folk songs and country-western music, Autry gained popularity in the 1930s by developing a persona that appealed to rural, small-town, and newly urban fans. It was during this same time, Duchemin explains, that Autry threw his support behind the thirty-second president of the United States. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources, Duchemin demonstrates how Autry popularized Roosevelt’s New Deal policies and made them more attractive to the American public. In turn, the president used the emerging motion picture industry as an instrument of public diplomacy to enhance his policy agendas, which Autry’s films, backed by Republic Pictures, unabashedly endorsed. As the United States inched toward entry into World War II, the president’s focus shifted toward foreign policy. Autry responded by promoting Americanism, war preparedness, and friendly relations with Latin America. As a result, Duchemin argues, “Sergeant Gene Autry” played a unique role in making FDR’s internationalist policies more palatable for American citizens reluctant to engage in another foreign war. New Deal Cowboy enhances our understanding of Gene Autry as a western folk hero who, during critical times of economic recovery and international crisis, readily assumed the role of public diplomat, skillfully using his talents to persuade a marginalized populace to embrace a nationalist agenda. By drawing connections between western popular culture and American political history, the book also offers valuable insight concerning the development of leisure and western tourism, the information industry, public diplomacy, and foreign policy in twentieth-century America.

Book Remaking the Wealth of the Nations

Download or read book Remaking the Wealth of the Nations written by Md Shamsul A. Chowdhury and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has found out the reasons as to why the "wealth of nations" differ from each other? Why the GDP per capita of Canada, and the U.S. were $43,248.5 and $56,115.7 respectively in 2015, whereas Mexico was languishing at $9,005, despite sharing common borders? Why is the per capita of Malawi not identical to Luxembourg or USA? Why the mountains of macro and micro economic studies failed to grow the economy up to expectation? Have the theories of capitalism and communism dissipated into thin air? Should the world think about an alternative option or formula for a better economy? "Remaking the Wealth of the Nations" has carried out extensive research on different economies, economic theories, ideas, and found out the common causes of economic successes and failures of the economies. Finally, this book has given out appropriate solution through clearly defining and explaining a new formula of "Artificial Productivity" to help the economists, leaders, and policy makers to remake the economies.

Book North of America

  • Author : Asa McKercher
  • Publisher : UBC Press
  • Release : 2023-07-15
  • ISBN : 0774868864
  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book North of America written by Asa McKercher and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2023-07-15 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1941, influential publishing magnate Henry Luce wrote a stirring essay on American global power, declaring that the world was in the midst of the first great American century. What did a newly outward-looking and hegemonic United States mean for its northern neighbour? From constitutional reform to transit policy, from national security to the arrival of television, Canadians were ever mindful of the American experience. This sharp-eyed study provides a unique look at postwar Canada, bringing to the fore the opinions and perceptions of a broad range of Canadians – from consumers to diplomats, jazz musicians to urban planners, and a diverse cross-section in between.

Book Bosnia as Civic State and Global Citizen

Download or read book Bosnia as Civic State and Global Citizen written by Philip C. Aka and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For long, the narrative in constitutional law, public policy, and statecraft is that Bosnia must join the EU, as a matter of economic development and nation building. This book introduces another dimension to the narrative, oversighted, without which the story remains one-dimensional, rather than balanced. That missing element in the literature this study integrates is a reformed Bosnian state, along the lines proposed in this book, that operates outside the EU. The setting of the work within the fields of knowledge of comparative constitutional law, and public choice theory provides added value to the reader, including students, scholars, policy makers, and lay persons.
