Sexualities in Victorian Britain
This book promises to lay to rest, once and for all, the early 20th-century truism that Victorians' primary relationship to sexuality turned on repression." -Mary L. Poovey, Johns Hopkins University An introduction to Victorian sexualities and a survey of current critical methods, these essays will energize reflection on the complexity of human sexuality and on the many different arrays of meaning that it has generated. Contributors are James Eli…
On Not Being Someone Else
Association Among Glucocorticoid Receptor Sensitivity, Fatigue, and Inflammation in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
OBJECTIVE: Fatigued cancer patients often have high peripheral inflammation; however, the biological mechanisms of this association remain unclear. We examined whether decreased sensitivity of immune cells to the anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids may contribute to inflammation and fatigue in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients during treatment. METHODS: HNC patients without distant metastasis and with curative intent (n = 77) were stud…
Chronic inflammation in the etiology of disease across the life span
Terrorism and Hostage Negotiations
How effective are the methods currently used to deal with hostage situations? This study attempts to answer that question by examining the ways in which terrorists manipulate the hostage/ barricade tactic—one of the most formidable and frightening devices in their arsenal—and by analyzing the response of law enforcement officers and policymakers to its use. Drawing on case materials and interviews with high-level decision makers, both in the Unit…
The role of inflammation in depression
Implicative Criticism, or The Display of Thinking
This essay establishes a distinction between two different modalities of criticism, which it calls "conclusive" and "implicative." The former reports on conclusions previously reached and invites verification or refutation from the reader; the latter displays the writer's process of thinking and invites continuation. Discussing criticism by Eve Sedgwick, Stanley Cavell, Neil Hertz, Raymond Williams, and D.A. Miller, and drawing on the writing of …
Achilles the Bitter
What trace do genocide and exile from the homeland leave on an artist's aesthetic language? Given the previous century's history, it would seem a fundamental question, especially for an artist such as Arshile Gorky, a survivor of the first modern genocide of 1915. How did this experience – too deep to be expunged by any subsequent biographical events – shape Gorky's art? Should we look to iconography (to the allusive symbolic content of Gorky's s…
Inflammation and Its Discontents
Common Genetic Contributions to Depressive Symptoms and Inflammatory Markers in Middle-Aged Men
Objective: To examine the extent to which a common genetic pathway is also involved in the relationship between depressive symptoms, in the absence of major depressive disorder (MDD), and inflammation. Recent data suggested that MDD and inflammation share common genes. Methods: We recruited 188 male twins from the Vietnam Era Twin Registry who were free of symptomatic coronary artery disease and MDD, with mean ± standard deviation (SD) age of 55 …
The link between childhood trauma and depression
Alterations in Diurnal Salivary Cortisol Rhythm in a Population-Based Sample of Cases With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Objective: To examine diurnal salivary cortisol rhythms and plasma IL-6 concentrations in persons with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), persons not fulfilling a diagnosis of CFS (we term them cases with insufficient symptoms or fatigue, ISF) and nonfatigued controls (NF). Previous studies of CFS patients have implicated the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and the immune system in the pathophysiology of CFS, although results have been equivocal…
Neuropsychological Performance in Persons With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Objective: To examine the neuropsychological function characterized in subjects with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) at the same time controlling for relevant confounding factors. CFS is associated with symptoms of neuropsychological dysfunction. Objective measures of neuropsychological performance have yielded inconsistent results possibly due to sample selection bias, diagnostic heterogeneity, comorbid psychiatric disorders, and medication usage…
Lives Unled in Realist Fiction
Referring to fiction by Charles Dickens and Henry James, this essay considers the moral psychology of counterfactual narratives, studying pressures that invite the imagination of alternate lives. Such "optative" narratives, characteristic of realism, typically become important within particular environments of attention; glancing at economic and ideological factors, the argument focuses on marriage and the loss of children

Structural Quiescence in the Failure of IC21 and Intelligence Reform
Democracy and the black riots
The findings of two presidential commissions have dominated the understanding of the Black urban riots of the 1960s and correspondingly the general understanding of the causes of political violence. The Kerner and Eisenhower commissions each explained the causes of the riots in terms of the social science orthodoxy of the time. The riots were seen as violent responses by a community that had experienced persistent and continual frustration as a r…

How the CIA fell victim to myth posing as journalism
The dual myths of 'narco-terrorism
When held up to the reality and complexity of the relationships between drug traffickers and insurgents, the concept of ‘narco‐terrorism’ falls short of serving as a useful explanatory device. Properly analyzed, ‘narco‐terrorism’ emerges as a political myth based on a stereotypic view of the Andean drug trade, peasant insurgency and the relationships between them. The myth of ‘narco‐terrorism’ coincided with the Latin American policy interests of…
Prosecuting Arguments
In the recent conference anthology, Cultural Studies, there are only four historians among the 42 participants-roughly foursince the difficulty in counting suggests the current flux of disciplinary relations. Three of the four-Lata Mani, Catherine Hall, and Caroline Steedman-are feminist Victorianists, and the latter two are markedly uneasy about their inclusion in the anthology: Historians, writes Hall
Thinking about intelligence after the fall of communism
In the mid-1970s the Soviet Union was one of the world's two superpowers. Its aggressive policies in support of successful third-world revolutionaries, its behind-the-scenes influence in the war in the shadows and its ability to export its ideology gave it the appearance of being near triumphant in the Cold War. American foreign policy toward the Soviets in that period was one of reacting to Soviet advancement across the globe. As America viewed …

The J-Curve Theory and the Black Urban Riots
A time-series analysis of individual level, perceptual data disconfirms the J-curve theory of the black urban riots (i.e., that they arise because a period of progress was followed by a sharp decline) and suggests that ambiguities surrounding black people's perceptions of their economic situation probably led to the frustration that culminated in urban violence.The methodological component of the research deals with such problems of relative depr…

Negotiations for hostages
The research examines the hostage situation precipitated by a group of Hanafi Muslims in March, 1977, in Washington, D.C. This episode is used to discuss a set of highly successful hostage negotiation procedures and their implications for bargaining with political terrorists. Some hostage situations are, as was the Hanafi episode, attempts by politically weak groups to gain access to the public agenda through political theater staged before the c…

Who Did Vote for Hitler? A Reanalysis of the Lipset/Bendix Controversy
That Adolf Hitler was the popularly elected leader of the German Third Reich has been a matter of no small discomfort for democrats in general and social scientists in particular. Was Hitler's election a unique phenomenon, peculiar to the times and character of the German republic, or was it a phenomenon to which all modern democracies are vulnerable? This article addresses two of the leading explanations for Hitler's success, one advanced by Sey…

Ethnicity and Political Behavior
Ethnicity and Political Behavior
D ESPITE the tendency for Americans beyond the second generation born in this country to maintain ethnically distinct cultures, and the persistent mass media speculation concerning the importance of ethnic cultures in shaping the character of American society and politics, the impact of ethnicity on American politics has received scant attention from the perspective of the political scientist. While historians have dealt with the impact of immigr…

Ethnicity and Party Identification
IN EARLIER research, Dahl's three-stage theory of ethnic assimilation2 and original data were reanalyzed through multivariate procedures. The reanalysis had profound implications for Dahl's theory. In the crucial juxtaposition between class and ethnicity, class, contrary to Dahl's original theoretical interpretation, did not subsume the ethnic factor as a determinant of party identification. With ethnicity being both substantively and statistical…

Jews, Radicals and Conservatives
IN A NOSTALGIC sketch, probing his embrace of New Left politics of mid1960s during his student days at University of Wisconsin, Paul Breines shares personal reflection (Breines, 1980) on twists and pulls of two identities, one Jewish and one Leftist. At times they appear to work in tandem: at other times they pull against each other, creating internal conflict and confusion. Breines asks why, as student, he was drawn to history classes of George …

Preserving liberty in a society under siege
In the aftermath of the TWA hijacking, the American electronic media were strongly criticized for their ethical practices and for abusing First Amendment rights. Many Americans think of Great Britain as providing appropriate examples for how to deal with abusive media. There, prior restraint and internal broadcasting codes exist, and the First Amendment does not. Yet, those who believe that capping the lens provides a simple solution to a complex…
