Book excerpt: Published to weave together the untold stories of The New School's legacy Illustrated with over 400 images from the School's archive A Drama in Time is an illustrative and beautifully designed mosaic narrative that weaves together the many histories of one of America's most progressive universities. Founded by political dissidents in 1919, the School has become a byword for academic freedom and progressive thought. Now encompassing five schools, including Parsons School of Design, The New School is a center for notable designers, writers, musicians, artists and political activists. The book design is reflective of the change-making, status-quo pushing attitude of the school: dynamic and unexpected while remaining elegant. Contents: A character study of a university and a fresh take on the classic hero's journey, the book is a non-linear collection of stories designed to live on their own, and as a whole to give the reader an understanding of The New School's legacy and vision. Each story contains a mix of a title, body copy, photos with captions, pull-out quotes by recognizable members of our community, historical and modern courses, and related events/happenings/publications that cross time periods and schools. The Festival of New: 1-6 October 2019. The book will be launched during a campus-wide Festival open to the public celebrating the school's Centennial with talks, performances, exhbitions, parties and more.

Download or read book Usable Social Science written by Neil J. Smelser and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2012-10-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Usable Social Science represents a remarkable collaboration between Neil J. Smelser, one of America’s most distinguished sociologists, and John Reed, a highly successful member of corporate America. Together, they accomplish an even more remarkable feat of making accumulated social science knowledge accessible to non-academics while, at the same time, making an academic contribution to the social sciences by reviewing the history, accumulated findings, and conceptual approaches in key areas of specialization in sociology and elsewhere in the social sciences."—Jonathan H. Turner, University Professor & Distinguished Professor of Sociology, University of California, Riverside. “This book is an ambitious project to provide the public with a review of the available and practicable knowledge for decision-making people (and who is not that today?) that the social sciences have produced over the last 250 years or so. Typically, such efforts are bound to fail. But this project is a full success, keeping its promise to present knowledge in an understandable and exciting way. The language is charming and the elegant prose is the product of a fluent, transparent style. In short: a must read!”—Hans-Peter Mueller, Professor of sociology, Humboldt-University of Berlin.

Download or read book John Reed written by Kenneth Z. Chutchian and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Reed was one of America's most dynamic journalists during the World War I decade. An unabashed advocate for the working class and an outspoken critic of capitalism, Reed was a star reporter before his relentless crusade turned him into a target of the U.S. government. Reed set the standard for descriptive writing at labor strikes in New Jersey and Colorado, in Mexico while riding with Pancho Villa, in Germany's trenches, and in Russia. America had no shortage of rebels, socialists, anarchists and revolutionaries at that time--but with his outsized personality and command of language and audiences, Reed may have been the most dangerous rebel of them all. Neither adversaries nor allies expected Reed to go the distance (or to Russia) with his convictions. He seemed to enjoy life and merriment too much to sacrifice everything for a second American revolution. But they all underestimated the anger that fueled him, the memory of a father who sacrificed his reputation to fight white-collar crime. This career biography details Reed's extraordinary decade before his death at age 32--a chaotic period of constant movement and remarkable accomplishment--while placing him in context among those who shaped him and touching upon the people with whom he worked.

Download or read book Comrades of the Quest written by John Sheehy and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Ideal College is a college free to pursue its mission with unobscured vision of the truth, and power to proclaim the truth without fear or favor of politicians, or religious sects, or benefactors, or public cries, or its own administrative machinery.” —William Trufant Foster Visionary. Iconoclast. Rebel. William Trufant Foster set out in 1911 to launch the “ideal college,” and succeeded in building an intellectual liberal arts powerhouse that over the next century would perpetually seek to break the hard crust of custom and orthodoxy. Foster's quest for excellence and truth generated a steady yield of students—ranging from poet Gary Snyder to muckraker Barbara Ehrenreich to Apple founder Steve Jobs—who left Reed College eager to challenge society's dominant paradigms. Comrades of the Quest chronicles the colorful cultural and social history of this band of young, iconoclastic West Coast intellectuals, and of the institution that nurtured them. Drawing from interviews with more than 1,400 people and from unpublished memoirs stretching back to the college's early decades, John Sheehy weaves together a riveting story told from first-hand perspectives of this unique community's early formation and its ongoing quest to bring Foster's vision to life. With a punch much mightier than its weight, the Reed community undertakes an arduous journey through the political and educational developments of the past century—from the progressive education movement in the 1910s, the general education programs between the two world wars, scientific methodology in the 1950s, political relevance in the 1960s, theories of structuralism and deconstruction in the 1970s, the cultural wars in the 1980s, political correctness in the 1990s, to ideological bias in the 2000s—while keeping its founding ideals largely intact. At a time when America is struggling to sustain its innovative edge, Reed College remains an iconic model in equipping students with the most rigorous set of skills and attitudes possible for questioning status quo thinking in a rapidly changing world. Its story, populated with a rich cast of characters, and marked by intense rigor, demanding social freedom, and unconventional creativity, is no customary college history, but rather an intellectual thriller of American idealism played out against the hard world of social, religious, and political conformity, to great heights and near-fatal confrontations.
