> Natasha Hamilton-Hart in _Hard Interests, Soft Illusions_ advances
> the argument that there continues to be a strong belief in Southeast
> Asia that the United States is a benign hegemon. Among foreign
> policymakers in the six countries detailed in her study (Singapore,
> Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam), not
> only is this belief persistent but these polities also "are basically
> comfortable with U.S. influence and presence" (p. 7). Does this beg
> the question whether the hegemony of the United States in Southeast
> Asia may be in decline as current affairs in the Middle East might
> suggest? Hamilton-Hart explains why this is not likely in Southeast
> Asia even though it may be happening in other areas. She advances the
> view that although there may be an existing erosion of unipolarity
> and some signs of a return to soft balancing and "bandwagonin" by
> smaller states against the United States, these positions are slow to
> materialize. "The United States is not perceived as a potential
> threat because it is not a threat" (p. 9). Nations do not fear their
> loss of sovereignty because of U.S. power even though the United
> States has been involved in many violent episodes in Southeast Asia
> while developing its positions to contain communism. The book
> contains six chapters; a well-documented appendix containing
> interview data of the seventy-four interviews conducted during her
> research principally for chapter 4, "History Lessons," and chapter 5,
> "Professional Expertise"; and a voluminous bibliography.
>
> By examining the interests of the governing or ruling power elites in
> each country, Hamilton-Hart develops her argument of relatively
> "benign hegemony." These hard interests drive associations or
> alignments toward the United States. "The origins of alignment lie in
> the outcome of domestic political struggles ... and the sectional
> interests of contenders for power who seized the opportunities
> presented by American anticommunism" (p. 10). Hamilton-Hart points
> out that strong belief about the United States and other contenders
> for hegemonic status, in ways that deviate from common assumptions,
> are not necessarily inaccurate. She considers these beliefs
> "illusions." Some "externally verifiable standard" is required to
> determine whether such beliefs are accurate or inaccurate. She notes
> that illusions "are shaped, first, by the direct political, economic,
> and career interests of power holders, foreign policy practitioners,
> and those in the wider foreign policy community" (p. 11).
>
> Two chapters of the book explore the formation of beliefs about the
> United States as a benign power. Chapter 4 retells the national
> histories of each of the six countries, especially focusing on the
> role and nature of anticommunist policies and local domestic
> struggles. Chapter 5 describes the beliefs held among the foreign
> policy community. Explored within this chapter is the "defeat and
> silencing of the political left (or right, in the case of Vietnam)
> since the 1960s or earlier" (p. 143). Hamilton-Hart examines the
> beliefs and attitudes of different groups with different memories,
> agendas, and conceptions of interest to determine if changes in the
> alignment of power groups, as a result of domestic struggles, alter
> the attitude toward the United States and beliefs about the role it
> plays as a hegemon in the region. She concludes that those exposed to
> different national histories form different judgments about the
> United States. Power holders have shaped the national histories
> "while their opponents have either been written out of history or
> demonized as treasonous" (p. 14).
>
> Hamilton-Hart uncovers a telling point in her research. She writes
> that "the prevailing professional wisdom was that irritation with the
> United States or moral qualms about its policies should not impede
> bilateral relations.... Underpinning this orientation are the
> foundational beliefs that American power is fundamentally benign and
> that an American presence in the region is necessary for stability
> and prosperity" (p. 146). Hamilton-Hart makes this statement when
> comparing China as an alternative hegemonic power. So, why is the
> United States considered beneficial to the region? The answer should
> not be surprising; a former Nazi propagandist, Joseph Goebbels,
> outlined it seventy years ago. A Malaysian former official
> paraphrased the answer to Hamilton-Hart that if you repeat something
> often enough it is believed (p. 159).
>
> It is not likely that this position of benign hegemon will prevail in
> Southeast Asia. A decline is currently occurring in the U.S.
> worldwide position as the unilateral superpower. This waning position
> is encouraged by American policies of the "war on terror" and by the
> current U.S. economic circumstances. Will the United States continue
> to have the economic capacity to serve its regime interests?
>
> The book does not address the question of which fundamental beliefs
> about the United States are correct. That depends on where one
> stands. For example, Hamilton-Hart writes: "America's wars in
> Indochina which claimed around a million deaths and an even larger
> toll in terms of other casualties and environmental damage in Vietnam
> alone are recalled in parts of the foreign policy community of other
> Southeast Asian countries as an instance of American sacrifice that
> 'held the tide' and 'bought time' for the region. Past Chinese
> 'meddling' in Southeast Asia is more frequently recalled than
> interference by the United States" (p. 192).
>
> The book adds significantly to the knowledge and research of students
> of international relations and area studies of Southeast Asia. It is
> scholarly in presentation and well organized as it moves the reader
> through the development of its thesis. The principal weakness of the
> work is that its area of interest is too narrow. There is
> considerable geophysical overlap with other nations surrounding the
> region of the six targeted countries and they are noticeably
> missing--Japan, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Australia, New Zealand, and
> Pacific Island nations, among others. Concentrating on the six is
> fine but they contain a historical symmetry and relevance of belief
> systems. Other leftist leaning countries, like Laos, Myanmar, and
> Cambodia, with other experiences, would be welcome additions to the
> synthesis and analysis.

> industrial and plantation. We want to ask a specific set of questions: 1.

> work regimes emerged historically in diverse workplaces? 3. How have
> traditions and definitions of skill been constituted and passed on in
> different occupational forms? 4. What forms of social life, community
> organization and family structures have been historically interwoven with
> regimes of work and skill?
>
> Different themes that could be investigated within this broad rubric
> are: -Rhythms of work and how they are affected by economic and political
> change and managerial decisions - Spaces of work; organization of work at
> the workplace (how did the specific nature of work-place influence the
> nature of work and social identity?) - Skill-formation; what role did
> race, community, generation, caste and kin networks, and institutions play
> in skill-development? - Work and family divisions of labour: what sorts of
> gendered practices and norms have been associated with different
> occupational communities and regimes?
>

Cloelia: Newsletter of the Women's Classical Caucus

2012 is the 40th Anniversary of the Women's Classical Caucus. As part of the 40th Anniversary volume of Cloelia, many members of the WCC have joined together to help digitize the WCC Newsletter and related archival material. This page is the beginning of this project.

The Emergence of a Common Culture in the Northern Provinces of the Roman Empire from Britain to the Black Sea up to 212 A.D.
Under Roman rule in the first two centuries AD there emerged a society similar in appearance from the British Isles to the Black Sea, influenced by the culture and civilisation of the Mediterranean. With this common culture there developed regional characteristics which had their origins in the society and everyday life of pre-Roman times. The aim of the project is to show how these developments took place by looking at a number of thematic areas...

Rezeption der Antike im semantischen Netz: Buch, Bild und Objekt

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 01:14 PM PST

Rezeption der Antike im semantischen Netz: Buch, Bild und Objekt
Seit dem 1. September 2009 werden im Rahmen des von der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) finanzierten Projektes Drucke vom 16. bis zum späten 19. Jahrhundert erschlossen und digitalisiert. Es handelt sich um Werke, deren Inhalt sich mit den Grabungen und Funden zu antiken Kulturen im Mittelmeergebiet auseinandersetzt.
Die Projektpartner verfügen über herausragende, sich ideal ergänzende Bestände, die einen wesentlichen Teil der Antikenrezeption dieser Epochen nicht nur reflektieren, sondern auch die Geschichte der Archäologie und der Ägyptologie an sich dokumentieren.

In ausgewählten Projektteilen werden Formen der semantischen Vernetzung erprobt: Direkte Objektkontextualisierungen der Stosch'schen Gemmensammlung und des "Palace of Minos", Zusammenführung semantischer Dokumentationsstandards und ihr Mapping auf das CIDOC/CRM

In Propylaeum werden die digitalisierten Titel zusammengeführt und kontextualisiert. Die METS-Schnittstellen der Ausgangssysteme werden hierbei für eine komfortable Recherche innerhalb der Metadaten genutzt. Da die von den Projektpartnern bereits vor Projektbeginn digitalisierten Titel zur Archäologie und Ägyptologie ebenfalls über die 

Rechercheoptionen auffindbar sind, sind bereits jetzt mehr als 3000 Titel recherchierbar.

In der zweiten Projektphase (Beginn September 2011) werden neben den Alten Drucken nun verstärkt auch Zeitschriften des 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhunderts digitalisiert. Auch die einzelnen Zeitschriftenaufsätze werden über die verschiedenen Browsing-Optionen in Propylaeum recherchierbar sein.

Zusätzlich werden jetzt auch Alte Drucke mit thematischem Schwerpunkt auf dem westlichen und östlichen Mittelmeerraum aus der Bibliothek der Abteilung Istanbul des Deutschen Archäologischen Instituts digitalisiert. Mit diesen Titeln wird das Spektrum der bereits vorhandenen Digitalisate abgerundet.

Die durch das Projekt zu erwartenden Ergebnisse zu ehemaligen Aufbewahrungsorten, zur Sammlungsgeschichte sowie zur archäologischen Publikationsgeschichte bis zum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts werden der zukünftigen Forschung zahlreiche Einblicke in den Wandel des Antikenverständnisses von Barock, Aufklärung und Klassizismus erlauben.
