Abstract:
ABSTRACT An effective public affairs effort during a crisis is of paramount importance, both in disseminating accurate information and in shaping a positive public perception of the response effort. Good crisis managers take a proactive role preparing, staffing, and testing a media plan. The state of Michigan has had success in its media plan by establishing a Joint Public Information Team (JPIT) consisting of federal, state, and local agencies. This paper is an overview of how the state recruits members, defines jobs, and equips a JPIT. It gives the history of how the JPIT got started and discusses how its lead agency, the Michigan State Police, Emergency Management Division (MSP/EMD) keeps members motivated to participate. The poster presentation will be a series of handouts containing the details of how the MSP/EMD established the JPIT. This overview with the handout should be helpful to any organization establishing a JPIT.

Abstract:
The UN Office of Legal Affairs provides central legal support and assistance to UN offices and entities implementing the fundamental UN mandate established by the UN Charter, namely, to support the maintenance of international peace and security; to promote economic and social advancement for all people; and to affirm faith in fundamental human rights and promote the wider acceptance of international law. The General Legal Division is one of six divisions of the UN Office of Legal Affairs, and one of two of the Office's divisions that provide transactional legal services and support to the United Nations, its Funds and Programmes, such as the UN Development Programme, the United Nations Children's Fund, the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, the UN Population Fund, and others, the UN's peacekeeping missions, and the UN's regional and country offices throughout the world. Specifically, the Office oversees global crises and at times relevant legal aid. It deals with the internal legal framework of the UN and facilitates its legal interactions with suppliers, donors, implementing partners, and the public at large. In the General Legal Division, we have some thirty lawyers and ten support staff in the Division dealing with a variety of the day to day legal issues faced by the Organization.

Abstract:
The IAU Division C Commission 55, Communicating Astronomy with the Public, played an active role in Union affairs within Division C, Education, Outreach and Heritage. The International Astronomical Union (IAU) vested considerable responsibility for its public outreach efforts in Commission 55 (C55), Communicating Astronomy with the Public. This article briefly recounts the origin and history of C55 over the past decade, and describes the work of C55 until it became Division C Commission C.C2 in 2015. As stated on our website, http://www.communicatingastronomy.org, C55 was founded on the principle that “it is the responsibility of every practising astronomer to play some role in explaining the interest and value of science to our real employers, the taxpayers of the world.” While this was true a decade ago, when the Working Group that eventually became C55 first took shape, it is even more true today, when funding for the astronomical sciences (and science more generally) is under threat on nearly every continent.

Abstract:
Along with comparing public administration affairs in traditional political, genuinely religious, patrimonial, and charismatic systems, we deal with decision-making problem, and along with mentioning decision-making methods in modern mathematics, the decision making process on the basis of personal value system will be under considerations. If the human beings’ value system moves from caring material affairs towards concerning spiritualties, the consequences of decision-making process would be improved. In establishing management and making hierarchical organization, the more the rate of discipline and ration, the organization framework would become more consolidated. The basic skeleton of an organization includes division of labor, authority, and responsibility, hierarchical relationships of different job categories in the organization, and the qualifications of relationships are of the other items that are being considered in this paper. Mutual understandings and beliefs of members of the organization in approaching organizational goals and their moral commitments to preserve organization's benefits would reduce the costs of supervision and control in organizations including visible and invisible costs, and methods for providing these conditions in Sufism are achieved via purification of the self for every single of the individuals. Meritocracy and favoritism are other discussed topics in this paper. In conclusion, fifty rules for public administration affairs are presented which have been raised by His Excellency Haj Zein ul-Abedin Shirvani, a Sufi Master of two centuries ago.

Abstract:
The governance theory has experienced an important evolution throughout history of political models known until present day. Specialists and scholars agree unanimously on the representative system being the preferred instrument of modern democracy to organize the state authority and competences. Politicians and rulers are elected according to a subjective approach, with the obligation to establish and realize public issues. This is a process in which the will of voters is used to prove the legitimacy of the power; however, it is deprived of an impact on direct politicians’ decisions. In another dimension, the Islamic governance theory offers a different postulate which is constructed on a clear division between the public and private interests. “Shura”, that is a consultative system of governance, is determined by divine provisions as a unique governance model, in which the impact of individuals has a direct impact on appointing rulers and on decision making, as well. This system provides a preventative control and monitoring which allow consultants’ or advisors’ interference in the decision making process and also during the executive phase to avoid disturbance or violation of the goals established in public issues, according to provisions and rules of Shari’ah.

Abstract:
All members of the institution must actively contribute through excellent work, recognizing that the overall organizational effectiveness hinges on individual employee performance. This research seeks to explore and assess how service quality and motivation impact the job performance of employees in the Banquet Affairs division of the West Java Provincial Government's Regional Secretariat. Employing a quantitative approach, the study employs both descriptive and verification methods to analyze these influences. The population in this study is 30 respondents chosen using the saturated sample method, thus the population is as large as the number of research samples. The data is collected by distributing questionnaire directly towards the respondents, and then it is analyzed using the multiple linear regression method. The research findings state that service quality and motivation partially and simultaneously influences employee performance in the Banquet Affairs of the Regional Secretariat of the West Java Provincial Government. The contribution of service quality and motivation to employee performance is 74.3%.

Like many research institutions, the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysicsf (CfA), has been actively engaged in education and public outreach activities for many years. The Harvard University Department of Astronomy, the formal higher education arm of the CfA, offers an undergraduate concentration and a doctoral program. In our Science Education Department, educational researchers manage ten programs that address the needs of teachers and students (K-12 and college), through advanced technology, teacher enhancement programs, and the development of curriculum materials. The Editorial and Public Affairs Department offers several public lecture series, recorded sky information, children's nights, and runs the Whipple Observatory Visitors Center in Amado, AZ. In this environment of successful programs, the High Energy Astrophysics (HEA) division, one of seven research divisions at the CfA, has initiated, or partnered with other institutions, development of several new education and outreach programs. Some of these programs involve partnerships with the education community, but all of them have been initiated by and involve scientists.

Who makes decisions concerning defence policy in Belgium? Not the public opinion, because otherwise there would be no Cruise missiles.Not the Parliament, because the parliamentarians only ratify international treaties. Not the Minister of Foreign Affairs, because the Minister of Defence makes decisions without contacting Foreign Affairs. Even the Government as a whole and the Prime Minister do not much take care about the defence policy. The so-called experts concerning defence policy are the militaries, the diplomats and the NATO-bureaucrats.Yet, the political problems with respect to the Atlantic Alliance and the division of the European continent, wilt constrain the politicians to reconsider the basic options of the policy.

This paper presents the findings of a study that explored how authorities of Cape Coast perceive the role of mass media in corporate communication and reputation management. The study which was descriptive by design, solicited information from 77 purposively selected senior members in the university. Simple quantitative methods involving frequency tables, percentages, bar and pie charts were employed in analyzing the data collected. Among other findings, the study found that the University had adopted the use of multiple media especially radio, television, internet and newspaper to communicate to students, staff the University Community and its large external publics. The university's use of media is however mostly uncoordinated. Based on the findings, the paper argues that the University can study that explored how authorities of maximise benefit of the use of mass media if it adequately resources and positions its Division of Public Affairs to enable it enhance its performance and also educate the University Community on the role of media in corporate affairs.

Jenkins, Aaron. "A nested environmental approach to typhoid epidemiology in Central Division, Fiji." Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 2017. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/1992.

Full text
Abstract:
Many current disease threats involve interactions within and between nested subsystems of biological organisation. Typhoid fever is a serious disease threat in the South Pacific region, with Fiji reporting the highest annual number of cases, yet risk factors in this setting have been poorly studied. While localised behaviours have dominated perspectives on typhoid transmission, interactions between distal ecological conditions, conditions of the residential environment and localised behaviour deserve greater attention for their potential to influence transmission. This thesis demonstrates a nested approach to typhoid epidemiology using a fivefold methodology to explore how regional, river basin, residential, socio-cultural and behavioural subsystems influence the risk of typhoid transmission in Central Division, Fiji, whereby I: (1) provide a regionally specific literature review examining health consequences of wetland ecosystem service interruption associated with common natural disasters; (2) use quantitative geospatial analysis to evaluate relationships between sub-catchment environmental characteristics and typhoid incidence and recurrence; (3) use a case-control design at a residential level to investigate bacterial contamination and chemical composition of water and soil as vehicles of exposure, complemented with observational analysis of living conditions, spatial analysis of household position and factor analysis to explore multivariate relationships influencing typhoid risk; (4) question 160 typhoid fever cases and 319 control subjects to reveal risky socio-cultural and behavioural practices and; (5) synthesize significant risk factors within and across nested subsystems and test several intervention scenarios using a Bayesian Network approach. Regional typhoid burden is influenced by climate change induced warming, altered rainfall patterns, increased storm severity and rising seas, coupled with population growth, slow economic growth, urbanisation, environmental change and limited capacity for adaptive management. The most parsimonious models for incidence and recurrence at the sub-catchment scale included total high soil-erosion risk area, percentage area that was highly erodible, connectivity between road and river networks and riparian forest fragmentation as predictor variables. In the residential setting, five factors, related to drainage, housing and condition of water and sanitation were significant in predicting typhoid. Multivariate analysis of household questionnaires indicated the following significant risk factors for typhoid fever: using an unimproved pit latrine, not washing produce (i.e. fruit or vegetables) or hands before eating, bathing outside, water not always accessible, having sand/wood plank floors and attending mass gatherings. The above results suggest that anthropogenic alteration of land cover and hydrology in river basin and residential systems increases risk of exposure where sediment increases following runoff. Localised socio-cultural and behavioural subsystems interact with residential and river basin subsystems to enhance risk of typhoid transmission. Bayesian network analysis suggests combined interventions within a subsystem provides greater exposure reduction than the sum of individual interventions and simultaneous interventions on select risk factors, across multiple nested subsystems, provides greater exposure reduction than elimination of risk factors in any one subsystem. A nested epidemiological approach to studying and interrupting waterborne disease transmission extends the testing of causal assumptions beyond the domestic domain, enhances traditional case-control approaches and provides evidence for multi-scale interventions on both distal and proximal drivers of disease and environmental degradation.

Abstract:
History
M.A.
In 1916 the United States National Park Service (NPS) was founded to conserve the nation’s natural and cultural landscapes as well as “to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.” While much historical analysis has been done by historians and the NPS on the agency’s national history, these scholars have ignored how the NPS was shaped by and contributed to an international history of national parks. Thus, this thesis addresses this historiographical gap and institutional forgetfulness by examining the agency’s Division of International Affairs (DIA). The DIA was established in 1961 by the NPS to foster international cooperation by building national parks overseas, which often advanced foreign policy containment initiatives in the developing world during the Cold War. Following the end of the Cold War, a significant decline in activity and staffing made it more difficult for the DIA to return to the pull of its influence just a decade or two earlier. In 1987 the DIA was renamed the Office of International Affairs (OIA) and has since suffered from many of its parent agency’s larger issues including a decline in staffing, funding, and a host of other issues that have compromised the NPS’s ability to meet its mission. As the NPS celebrates its centennial in 2016, I argue that examining the NPS’s history of international work challenges the agency to consider its past in new ways in the hopes that it reconfigure its mission and future to best meet the needs of its audiences in a globally connected twenty-first century world.

Abstract:
Unemployment was a major problem faced by the ex-servicemen in Malaysia since the early seventies. Recognising the needs of ex-servicemen, the government through the organisation of the Veterans Affairs Division (VAD) introduced the resettlement program for the ex-servicemen with the aim of assisting the veterans to find employment. However despite the implementation of training programs, the rate of unemployment among the ex-servicemen was relatively very high, whilst the extent of the as well as the underlying factors remained unknown, with the resultant ambiguity of the role of VAD. This case study was designed to investigate issues related to the employment situation of the ex-servicemen by surveying those in the capital territory of Kuala Lumpur and the states of Selangor, Negeri Sembilan and Melaka, who participated in resettlement training and were discharged in 1993. In addition the states of Johor, Perak and Penang were included for the survey on the non participants of resettlement training. The study found that the rate of employment of the ex-servicemen in the states surveyed was substantially lower than that of the national average. The study also found that participation in the resettlement training organised by the VAD had significant effect on increasing the rate of employment besides higher income, shorter period of unemployment, better readjustment and higher satisfaction with civilian life. Among the factors analysed, ability to speak English and the economic activity and the stage of development of the states were found to have significance influence on the rate of employment. Other factors found to be associated with the employment of the ex-servicemen included age, education level, rank, urban or rural background, and matching of training to application. Based on the findings of this case study recommendations were made to improve the selectivity of, and access to, resettlement training by all ex-servicemen. Other recommendations included improving the standard of education and spoken English before discharge, lowering age of discharge with pension, provision of information related to employment and counselling service, setting up of data bank of ex-servicemen and further research.

Abstract:
Today public higher education leaders are charged with finding private gifts to support their campus operations as state appropriations decline. Accordingly, budget cuts are often a challenge for units within institutions that support the co-curricular experience. This applied dissertation was designed to identify fundraising strategies that supplement operating budgets for student affairs divisions at four-year public institutions that are members the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Southeastern Conference (SEC) and Big Ten. The researcher surveyed development officers that were charged with fundraising for student affairs these institutions, as well other public institutions with an NCAA affiliation. An analysis of the data using Light’s (2005) four pillars of high performance revealed strategies that student affairs have used to be successful. For instance, student affairs divisions that raised the most money were included in the institutions capital campaign and had a dedicated fundraiser for their division. In addition, they collaborated with other development colleagues to ensure priorities under the purview of student affairs were clearly articulated. Put simply, student affairs divisions can be successful in raising philanthropic dollars to support programs and services within their unit.

Abstract:
This research presents the results of general linear modeling (GLM) of 131 school divisions in Virginia. The purpose of this research is to answer the question: What is the relationship between teacher salaries and student achievement as measured by Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)? Utilizing an equity theory and distributive justice perspective, data related to achievement in English and mathematics by high school students, as measured by the requirements of AYP, were culled from the Virginia Department of Education for every school division in Virginia in the subjects of reading, writing, algebra I, geometry, and algebra II. These data represent the dependent variables and are analyzed with teacher salary and principal salary data, which represent the independent variables. Intervening variables identified in the education, public policy and economic literature are also included in the modeling. An analysis of nine general linear models produced evidence that the relationship between teacher salaries and student achievement, as measured by AYP, is relatively weak. Though the results do not support a wide range of policy recommendations, one recommendation is for school divisions in the northern region of the state to consider a readjustment of their pay scales in order for teacher salaries in those Northern Virginia school divisions to be more competitive with other school divisions in the state when adjusted for cost-of-living.

Abstract:
Abstract Amidst the worst disaster to impact a major U.S. city in one hundred years, New Orleans’ main trauma and safety net medical center, the Reverend Avery C. Alexander Charity Hospital, was permanently closed. Charity’s administrative operator, Louisiana State University (LSU), ordered an end to its attempted reopening by its workers and U.S. military personnel in the weeks following the August 29, 2005 storm. Drawing upon rigorous review of literature and an exhaustive analysis of primary and secondary data, this case study found that Charity Hospital was closed as a result of disaster capitalism. LSU, backed by Louisiana state officials, took advantage of the mass internal displacement of New Orleans’ populace in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in an attempt to abandon Charity Hospital’s iconic but neglected facility and to supplant its original safety net mission serving the poor and uninsured for its neoliberal transformation to favor LSU’s academic medical enterprise.

Over the past twenty years and even during the apartheid era, South Africa has undergone significant waves of migration and leadership challenges. Migration into South Africa has been, and still is, a result of many different factors that include economic reasons and seeking political refuge. This migration wave has also taken its toll on the country’s leadership skills and strategies as well as the Immigration Department as regards the issuance of legal documents to migrants to be able to stay legally in the country. Leadership is usually revered in Africa, but this places pressure to perform well on the country’s existing leadership in relation to the control of migration and the maintenance of peace within the borders of the country. The study aimed to identify whether the leadership is performing the way it is supposed to perform. Is the leadership performing with character and competence and are they taking responsibility for their actions when dealing with the public as this matter affects the public sector. Statistics South Africa has an estimate of number of the migrants flowing into the country and the Department of Home Affairs does not have an accurate number of the migration flow, due to the daily rapid movement at the border posts. It is known, however, that the number of migrants into the country has increased and continues to increase, and this poses a challenge for the leadership. One of the recommendations that emerged from the findings of the study is that more programmes and workshops should be undertaken to equip the civil servants in the Department of Home Affairs as they are all leaders in various ways and are also representatives of the Department. Their conduct should therefore be professional as they represent the image of South Africa.

This study aimed to explore the differences in stress and adjustment at work of general affairs division staffs of various backgrounds in public senior high schools. This study adopted the questionnaire survey method with the survey subjects being the general affairs division staffs in public senior high schools. The sampling method applied was proportional stratified random sampling. A total of 360 questionnaires were issued and 279 were retrieved. The invalid questionnaires were discarded, and the 270 questionnaires left were valid. The valid response rate was 75%. Statistical methods such as descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson product-moment correlations were applied for the analyses of the data obtained from the collected questionnaires. The findings based on the research purpose are summarized below: 1.Regarding stress at work, the general affairs division staffs’ perception about “workload” was the strongest. 2.Regarding adjustment at work, the general affairs division staffs’ perception about “need for support” was the strongest. 3.The general affairs division staffs who served as the section chief of purchase & maintenance with the highest academic degree obtained being a bachelor's degree or lower and the self-rated health condition being normal had higher stress at work. 4.The general affairs division staffs who served as the general affairs director with the highest academic degree obtained being a master's degree or a doctoral degree and the self-rated health condition being good could adjust better at work. 5.There was no significant difference in stress or adjustment at work among the general affairs staffs of different marital statuses, seniorities, school types, school scales, and school district. 6.There was no significant correlation between stress and adjustment at work of the general affairs staffs in public senior high schools.

In order to meet the innovation of military affairs in recent years, no matter the military strength, troop formation or the research and development for the national army of new generation, major military maneuvers, recruitment demand of military talents, actual training situation of troops, or the handling and explanation of important news events, the Ministry of National Defense and the various armed services adopt more open ways by inviting the local and foreign media to report the events on the spot, thus letting all the people of Taiwan understand the changes of the national army through the press release, and tightening the interaction between the army and the journalists. Nevertheless, due to the difference in organization properties, there exists an inborn opposing relationship between the national army and the media. Despite the close interaction between the two parties, the relationship is sometimes good, sometimes bad. They are always suspected of violating or disclosing the military secrets, affecting the image of the national army or flourishing the expose culture, so the relationship between both parties is always in a tense situation. The study aims at conducting the investigation from the interaction between the troops of different organizational characteristics and the journalists of the media. By using the way of in-depth interviews, and taking the four troop members of “Public Affairs Divisions” established in the southern district of the national army as well as the news reporters that are responsible for the contacts with the army during the ordinary days and the interviews with these four troops, as the targets, the study investigates the interacting relationship and models between the troops and the media, and the factors affecting the organizational characteristics of interaction between the two parties. Finally, the study gives practical suggestions for the operation of Public Affairs Division after establishment and the handling of the relationship with the media. The research results are referential to the study of military mass media. The study acquires the following findings: 1. There is no significant difference in the interaction between the troops of different organizational characteristics and the journalists. 2. The supports of supervisors are the main factor affecting the interaction between the troops and the journalists. 3. The interacting model between the troops and the journalists inclines to be a “competitive interacting model.” 4. The expansion of contact area between the troops and the journalists is helpful to the establishment of a good interaction between the two parties, especially the establishment of private relationship in between, which will be advantageous to the promotion of the news work of the troops. 5. The professional functions of Public Affairs Division of the troops have not been exerted. There is a lack of training for the staff of news release system.

Abstract:
Abstract The successful campaign to close the clinics can be credited to the establishment of a semiautonomous federal agency, the Narcotic Division of the Prohibition Unit, which could mount a coordinated and enduring attack from its headquarters in Washington with its own field force of about 170 agents divided among thirteen districts.1 The head of the Narcotic Division, Levi G. Nutt, remained in his post from 1920 until early 1930, outlasting several Prohibition commissioners who succeeded one another as the enforcement of dry laws failed under widespread dishonesty and public contempt. One reason for the poor quality of prohibition enforcement was that jobs were openly filled by political patronage. Even Warren Harding informed Congress in 1922: “there are conditions relating to [Volstead Act] enforcement which savor of nationwide scandal. It is the most demoralizing factor in public life.” The Narcotic Division, however, was under civil service. Scandal in its operation occurred less often, although indiscretions discovered in 1929 led to Nutt’s removal in 1930. For the first decade of the Narcotic Division’s existence, enforcement of the Harrison Act was eclipsed by the drama of national liquor prohibition. Narcotic agents were eventually embarrassed by their association with dry agents, and there were several recommendations by the AMA as early as 1921 that Nutt’s agency be separated from Prohibition affairs. There were other loud dissidents, Internal Revenue Commissioner Roper among the earliest, who saw no reason for making the tax agency of the government responsible for Prohibition enforcement. Finally, in 1930, Prohibition was transferred to the Justice Department, and narcotic affairs were vested in a new unit, the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, which remained in the Treasury Department until 1968, when it too was turned over to the Justice Department and considerably revamped.

Abstract:
The imperial government was able to focus solely on French national interests in determining its policy on the American crisis, without taking into account public opinion, because the antidemocratic nature of the Second Empire meant that decision-makers discussed external affairs in the closed sphere of the Quai d’Orsay or the Tuileries Palace. To determine its course of action during the American Civil War, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs therefore relied solely on its assessment of how France could best benefit from the situation created by the crisis, a judgment that it based on the dispatches of its diplomats and consuls. No advantage could be gained from a division of the Union; no valid reason could prompt the French Foreign Ministry to side with the states in rebellion. While Napoleon III hoped for a victory for the secessionists in order to further his own “grand design” in Mexico, he had to revise his American policy under the influence of his foreign ministers, who made him realize that France would not benefit from U.S. dismemberment. Nonintervention prevailed, revealing the powers of persuasion of Thouvenel and Drouyn de Lhuys.

Abstract:
Abstract Article 2 Section 1 of the Austrian federal Constitution states: ‘Austria is a federal state’. A closer look at the Austrian federal Constitution shows that this statement is, at best, a half-truth. Austria is a federal state, but a weak one. Or, to be more precise, a country where the nine states comprising the Republic are not very strong and the federation is almost all-powerful. In Austria, for instance, there is no real power-sharing between the federation (the Bund) and the states (the Länder). Articles 10 to 15, which is where the division of competences between the federation and the states is laid down, very quickly reveal that the federation has received the lion’s share. Practically all that is worth having belongs to the federation. Not only external affairs, money, and the army, but also all civil and criminal law, all police powers, all matters pertaining to trade and industry, almost all traffic competences, mining, forestry, labour legislation, public health, most of education and science, and practically all taxation matters belong to the federation.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses William T. Sherman’s efforts to introduce himself to President Lincoln, as well as his presidency at the Fifth Street Railroad, a company specializing in street cars. Sherman was unimpressed with the president; Lincoln seemed to Sherman the partisan-in-chief. Sherman would write several weeks after his meeting with Lincoln that the president had intimated “that military men were not wanted”; this seems unlikely, unless it refers to regular officers rather than volunteers. On April 1, 1861, Sherman began his new job as president of the Fifth Street Railroad. Yet, though Sherman had chosen to concentrate on domestic prosperity, public affairs kept breaking in to disturb his tranquility. The extent to which he lurked in the background as a spectator is revealed in the final, dramatic conclusion to the struggle to bind Missouri to the Union. At the end of April, Sherman was offered by Frank Blair Jr. the rank of brigadier general of volunteers and command of the Department of Missouri. On June 30, he received notification that he would command a brigade in Brigadier General Irvin McDowell’s army, Third Brigade in First Division, commanded by Brigadier General Daniel Tyler. Sherman was praised by Tyler in his report and had also earned McDowell’s high opinion. He demonstrated resolve, organizational capacity, and ability to think and make decisions under pressure.

Abstract:
In the past two decades, the anti-religious movement known as New Atheism has been working to define a scientific basis for opposing religion and its influence in public affairs. New Atheist thought on religion is rooted in scientism and a narrative of progress and Enlightenment that refers to ideas derived from evolutionary biology for its authority. A notable feature of this approach is the New Atheism’s critique of the social sciences, which it dismisses as relativistic and seeks to replace with evolutionary psychology and neuroscience. This chapter examines the New Atheism’s position in terms of an historical division within atheist thought between approaches to religion that are grounded in the natural sciences and the social sciences, and argues that contemporary atheism should be understood primarily as a political project to advance the authority of an ideological vision of ‘true’ science and its representative experts. While typically understood as a response to religious fundamentalism, the New Atheism is as much a reaction to a perceived weakening of universalistic standards of knowledge and morality in an increasingly pluralistic western cultural milieu. Through a reading of influential New Atheist texts in relation to the historical development of modern atheism, the chapter examines the relative decline in importance of the social sciences in popular atheist discourse. This decline is a result of the evolving politics of contemporary atheism, which, in some major forms, has drifted away from its roots in progressive social justice movements and ideologies toward a more libertarian position.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter discusses the year 1968 and America’s involvement in the Vietnam War. American involvement in the affairs of Vietnam had begun decades earlier when the Truman administration agreed to extend economic and military aid to France, which had been struggling against a communist-led independence movement that threatened colonial rule in Indochina. That commitment had been expanded by President Dwight Eisenhower and John Kennedy to include the creation and subsequent protection of a separate anticommunist government in South Vietnam. Under President Lyndon Johnson, the war rapidly became a massive, highly visible, and profoundly divisive affair. The American peace movement, which had struck its deepest roots on college campuses, also expanded rapidly during this time. By November 1968, when Richard Nixon was elected president of the United States, the public was bitterly split over issues of race, crime in the streets, sexual norms, cultural values, attitudes toward authority, and beliefs about the role of government in correcting social injustice.
