[Matthew Yglesias] Matthew Yglesias » Cold War Hawks and the Soviet Economy: The Team B warn darkly about a very “determined and effective Soviet civil defense effort” including “emphasis on the training of civilian personnel of all ages in protective measures to include practice evacuations of heavily populated areas”. Of course, these ambitious efforts “appear to be integrated with all other military programs to maximize the USSR’s capabilities to fight a nuclear war and emerge from it with a viable society,” providing an “unmistakable clue to Soviet overall doctrine with regard to general nuclear war.” A constant theme is that the Russkies clearly reject the M.A.D.

Pakistan is a tenuous ally at best, faces massive internal stability problems, and is only likely to fully engage as an ally if the various Afghan insurgent groups and Al Qa’ida become a direct threat to the Pakistani government.

[Barry's Arts Blog and Update] Barry's Arts Blog and Update: LOOKING BACK ON FIVE YEARS OF ...: Looking back on 2004, the 2005 year panel recognized that revenue was an issue, and that there might be economic problems ahead, but that insight was based primarily on the fear that the costs of the Iraq war would ultimately negatively impact the arts by relegating them as a low priority for national public funding.

[NEASC HOME] NEASC HOME » Blog Archive » Standard 3 DRAFT:  There has been improvement over the past several years in the extent to which decision making has become more transparent and information of importance is less concentrated at the top.  And there is extensive recognition that a serious effort is being made to create a more democratic organization with open communication and shared decision making.  For example, in addition to the formal channels of communication, there have been several new initiatives at the college in recent years which have further facilitated participatory governance.  The first is Process Management, implemented at the college in 2004.  PM is an initiative developed to foster continuous improvement and solve organizational problems from the ground up.  Process Management Teams made up of personnel from across the college, have been formed to address specific problems and propose specific, workable solutions that can then be implemented.  These Teams have recommended reconfiguration of the library, a method for events planning and scheduling, and the development of a freshman seminar, to name just a few.  One example of a successful Process Management effort is the project focused on the future of the library.  As a result of the research conducted and recommendations made in this project, the first floor of the College Library is currently being renovated to create an Information Commons that will more effectively serve the needs of today’s students.  (A list of the 29 Process Management efforts conducted between fall 2004 and fall 2007 is located on the college web site).  Process Management has had a powerful impact at Northern Essex.  It has facilitated college involvement in decision making and fostered collaboration across divisions, while improving institutional effectiveness.
