Administrative Appointments
Morrow's research addresses theories of international politics, both the logical development and empirical testing of such theories. He is best known for pioneering the application of noncooperative game theory, drawn from economics, to international politics. His published work covers crisis bargaining, the causes of war, military alliances, arms races, power transition theory, links b e t w e e n international trade and confl ict, the role of i…

Education in the Roman empire
Throughout the fifth and sixth centuries a.d., and to some extent later also, the education of the young followed patterns established in outline almost a thousand years earlier. Changes in content and in institutional arrangements had certainly taken place during the long period. The gradual disappearance in the Greek world of the element of physical training and of the institution which provided for it, the gymnasium, is an example. But change …

The Poet’s History
I cannot remember the time when I did not make verses and think verse-making the finest thing in the world: my father still keeps some very early attempts — laughable enough, I dare say. This itch for rhyming had not the least connection with the development of a poetic nature, but was the mere result of the notion that 'a poet' was the grandest of God's creatures; and all poets rhymed. When subsequently real and strong feeling called for utteran…

Social Welfare Policy
U.S. social welfare policy is fragmented and multifaceted. These characteristics date back to the origins of the Social Security Act (SSA) of 1935 and have endured through many periods of reform. The lack of a universal or comprehensive social policy is a distinguishing feature of American politics which has been reinforced through federalism and through the underlying work ethic of the U.S. economic system. During the eight years of the Reagan A…
In the margins of Byzantium? Some icons in Michael Psellos
In the face of a supposed dearth of recorded responses to icons, historians of Byzantine art commonly infer these either from characteristics that they suppose to inhere in works of art themselves, or transfer to the personal and practical realm such theoretical attitudes as are proclaimed in the proceedings of church councils and similar documents. These methods of argumentation give rise to assumptions that (i) aesthetic reactions to images wer…

Early Christianity
The history of the early Christian church was traditionally written by clergymen—ecclesiastical historians or theologians—who had their own methods, criteria and style. In particular they tended to follow the example of their founder, Eusebius, in taking a teleological view of their subject, and consequently in discerning in the
Democratic Representation and Partisan Bias in Congressional Elections
The translation of citizen votes into legislative seats is of central importance in democratic electoral systems. It has been a longstanding concern among scholars in political science and in numerous other disciplines. Throughout this literature, two fundamental tenets of democratic theory, partisan bias and democratic representation, have often been confused. We develop a general statistical model of the relationship between votes and seats and…
Presidents, Congress, and Policy Outcomes: U.S. Social Welfare Expenditures, 1949-77
The impact of politics and economics on policy has been the subject of much debate and controversy. This controversy exists, in part, because few studies have adequately measured policy and at the same time measured the effect of political institutions on policy. This study examines the impact of Congress, the presidency, and other policy influences on measures of total federal social welfare expenditures. The results indicate that when consideri…
Seats, Votes, and Gerrymandering: Estimating Representation and Bias in State Legislative Redistricting
The Davis V. Bandemer case focused much attention on the problem of using statistical evidence to demonstrate the existence of political gerrymandering. In this paper, we evaluate the uses and limitations of measures of the seat‐votes relationship in the Bandemer case. We outline a statistical method we have developed that can be used to estimate bias and the form of representation in legislative redistricting. We apply this method to Indiana sta…

Literacy in the Byzantine World
The historian Nicephorus Gregoras, writing of the Patriarch Athanasios I, dismisses him scathingly as . Yet we know that Athanasius, who came from the countryside near Adrianople, was reading the Lives of Saints before the age of twelve. And his surviving writings—homilies, encyclicals, canonical decisions, letters, etc.—fill the 204 folios of codex Vaticanus graecus 2219. Most of these writings still await publication. But the recent edition by …

The Riot of A.D. 387 in Antioch: The Role of the Theatrical Claques in the Later Empire
The riot at Antioch in the early spring of A.D. 387 is described in two eye-witness accounts, that of Libanius—in particular Orations 19–23—and that of John Chrysostom—in particular the 21 Homiliae ad populum Antiochenum de statuis . Consequently, it has often been studied in more or less detail by modern scholars, each approaching it from his own point of view. It might seem that all that could be said has been said. Nevertheless, certain featur…
