Book Princeton University  Military Instruction and War Service

Download or read book Princeton University Military Instruction and War Service written by Princeton University and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-04 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Princeton University, Military Instruction and War Service: Preliminary Report, December 1917 Such a course of instruction has been instituted for the second term of the current academic year with the under standing that as far as possible it shall be supplemented by attendance at the Summer Military Training Camps where an intensive technical training is provided under most favor able conditions. A course of this sort must naturally be regarded at first as more or less tentative in character. The Committee on Military Instruction is therefore now endeavoring to mature plans for a thoroughly well organized course of instruction which in co - Ordination with the Summer Camps and in har mony with the rest of the curriculum of the University, may enable those students who may so desire, to prepare themselves more efficiently to qualify in case of emergency as reserve Officers in a citizen soldiery. Until these plans shall be fully matured and formally approved by the Faculty, it is obviously impossible to make any definite announcement on the subject. The Committee feels confident that it is the calm, deliberate judgment of all members and friends of the University who have given the matter earnest consideration, that in taking these steps, Princeton is trying in obedience to its cherished traditions to fulfill its obligation to the nation as well as to the undergraduates on whose disciplined loyalty the country in time of emergency must rely.

Book Making Democracy Work

Download or read book Making Democracy Work written by Robert D. Putnam and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1994-05-27 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do some democratic governments succeed and others fail? In a book that has received attention from policymakers and civic activists in America and around the world, Robert Putnam and his collaborators offer empirical evidence for the importance of "civic community" in developing successful institutions. Their focus is on a unique experiment begun in 1970 when Italy created new governments for each of its regions. After spending two decades analyzing the efficacy of these governments in such fields as agriculture, housing, and health services, they reveal patterns of associationism, trust, and cooperation that facilitate good governance and economic prosperity.

Book The Forging of Bureaucratic Autonomy

Download or read book The Forging of Bureaucratic Autonomy written by Daniel Carpenter and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now political scientists have devoted little attention to the origins of American bureaucracy and the relationship between bureaucratic and interest group politics. In this pioneering book, Daniel Carpenter contributes to our understanding of institutions by presenting a unified study of bureaucratic autonomy in democratic regimes. He focuses on the emergence of bureaucratic policy innovation in the United States during the Progressive Era, asking why the Post Office Department and the Department of Agriculture became politically independent authors of new policy and why the Interior Department did not. To explain these developments, Carpenter offers a new theory of bureaucratic autonomy grounded in organization theory, rational choice models, and network concepts. According to the author, bureaucracies with unique goals achieve autonomy when their middle-level officials establish reputations among diverse coalitions for effectively providing unique services. These coalitions enable agencies to resist political control and make it costly for politicians to ignore the agencies' ideas. Carpenter assesses his argument through a highly innovative combination of historical narratives, statistical analyses, counterfactuals, and carefully structured policy comparisons. Along the way, he reinterprets the rise of national food and drug regulation, Comstockery and the Progressive anti-vice movement, the emergence of American conservation policy, the ascent of the farm lobby, the creation of postal savings banks and free rural mail delivery, and even the congressional Cannon Revolt of 1910.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Princeton Work in Peking The fact that this enterprise is to be concerned so largely with the student and literati class attaches toit the greatest possible importance, for in China the student class wields an enormous influence. From their ranks come all the officials and leaders. The need of these young men presents a convincing appeal for a ministry of practical helpfulness. With the exception of the modern educational advantages enjoyed by a few hundreds of young men, they are virtually without the means of physical, intellectual and religious education, and are destitute of up lifting social environment. The forces of evil are intensely active and vigorous on every hand, and are accomplishing with deadly effect their work of blasting character and enslaving men in sin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from After Twenty-Five Years: Reunion Book of the Class of 1881, Princeton The pe-rade was a most imposing affair. The men were simply but strikingly decorated with orange and-black hat - bands, and with wide orange - and - black sashes, worn diagonally over one shoulder and under the other arm and all carried orange and - black - flags. The huge Class Banner was borne aloft by the two men in charge of Headquarters, and the Class was preceded by the Rittenhouse Military Band of twenty pieces, and followed by Pliny Fisk's big automobile with horn honking and flags waving. Thirty-eight men ofthe Class lined up for the procession. At the farther end of Dickinson a halt was made, and Rose took the excellent photograph in the frontispiece.* All along the line of march, as we passed groups of spectators, or other classes forming, cheers rang out for the Class of'8 I. At least one wholly disinterested and impartial observer, known to the Sec retary, pronounced '8 I the finest body of men in the parade. The long column of classes made the usual inner circuit of the ball-grounds amid great enthu siasm from the grand stand and bleachers, and then all took seats for the game.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches: Princeton Sesquicentennial Celebration Nder the fairest of autumnal skies, with the turning foliage in full glory, the pageant of the Sesquicentennial Celebration passed along like a dream and only too swiftly passed away from sight to memory. It was a time never to be forgotten by the sons of Princeton who were present to see it and an occasion never to be repeated in our lifetime. The true Spirit of Princeton was made manifest in its power. Old Nassau Hall, the shrine of Princeton from the colonial days, and on through the Revolution down to the present, stood forth once more as the venerable symbol of what is truest and best in American learning, religion and patriotism. Such fervor of devotion to the old place and the great truths for which it stands has never before been evoked in its history in such fulness and intensity. The students and alumni in attendance amounted to three thousand and represented nearly all the classes from 1825 to 1900, and any university in the world might well covet the devotion they manifested toward their academic home. May the pictures which form this book serve to recall to their minds the scenes of these three eventful days and stimulate anew their love for Princeton.
