"The problem investigated in this thesis is that of determining the impact of the disestablishment of Camp Edward Gary on the economy of the city of San Marcos, Texas...it is anticipated that this study may contribute two additional outcomes of value: the first is a test of certain ideas in economic theory pertaining to recessions; and the second is an evaluation of the data pertaining to the economy of small communities...the data presented in Chapter II and the summarization of that information in Chapter III lead to the inevitable conclusion that the deactivation of Camp Edward Gary caused a recession in the City of San Marcos, Texas, which was shared in varying degree by virtually every element of the economy...it is further concluded that the impact of the loss of the military community was modified to some degree by the beneficial effects of the growth in its educational institutions and the fact that the loss was shared, although in a lesser degree, by other communities in the general area." --leaves 4, 5, 79

1. 4. ABSTRACT Diploma Thesis Mladá - Between the Destrution of Village and the Emergence of Military Training Ground (1904-1906) discusses the turbulent lives of the parish community on Benátky-Region, which, in 1904, was in the very center of planned artillery firing ranges and military training ground of the Austro-Hungarian army. As the only one of the affected villages, Mladá was doomed, people were forced to move, and the local buildings were used to house troops, and, subsequently, they were used as artillery targets. Sacrificing Mladá village in fact brought economic prosperity to the surrounding municipalities. The Transport infrastructure had improved, local trade got new impulses, agriculture production found a new outlet in the army etc. Finally, the dissolution of Mladá village led to the emergence of a new micro-regional center, when a small village of Milovice became a town that still commemorates this historical event village through the name of one of its urban parts - Mladá.

År 2010 verkställdes det politiska beslutet om att låta värnplikten vila och satsa på ett anställt försvar och istället infördes frivillig militär utbildning i form av Grundläggande militär utbildning. Regeringen anser att ungdomsverksamheterna, vilka bedrivs av frivilligorganisationer som exempelvis Sjövärnskåren, är en viktig del i rekryteringen till Försvarsmakten. Syftet med uppsatsen är att ta reda på om Sjövärnskåren skapar attraktionskraft för Försvarsmakten och i vilken utsträckning det motiverar ungdomar till att söka vidare till GMU och den nu vilande värnplikten. Denna uppsats baseras på en kvantitativ metod i form av ett frågeformulär, baserat på Herzbergs tvåfaktorsteori samt Hackman och Oldhams modell. Enkäten gick ut till 47 personer med bakgrund i Sjövärnskåren och som påbörjat Grundläggande militär utbildning, Specialistofficersutbildningen eller Officersprogrammet mellan åren 2010 och 2013. Enligt denna undersökning har Sjövärnskåren gjort Försvarsmakten attraktiv för ungdomarna som gått på sommarskolorna. Framförallt har detta skett genom att befälen på sommarskolorna föregått med bra exempel som ledare och representanter för Försvarsmakten. En slutsats som har dragits är att Sjövärnskåren nog kan anses som en bra rekryteringsgrund där det militära livet får testas på och utvärderas, samt leder till motiverade och engagerade rekryter. / In 2010, the political decision was implemented to abolish conscription and build the Swedish Armed Forces on employed soldiers and sailors. Instead of conscription, voluntary military training was introduced in the way of basic military training. The government believes that youth activities, conducted by NGOs such as the Swedish Sea Cadet Corps, are a vital part of recruitment to the Swedish Armed Forces. The purpose of this paper is to find out if the Swedish Sea Cadet Corps can make the Swedish Armed Forces attractive and to what extent it motivates young people to apply for basic military training and the now resting conscription. This paper is founded on a quantitative method in the form of a questionnaire, based on Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene theory and Hackman and Oldham’s model. The survey was sent to 47 people with a background in the Swedish Sea Cadet Corps and who began the basic military training, NCO training or Officer training, between 2010 and 2013. According to this survey, the Swedish Sea Cadet Corps made the Swedish ​​Armed Forces attractive to young people who attended the Swedish Sea Cadet Corps’ summer camps. This was, in particular, thanks to the officers at the summer camps, who acted by being good examples of leaders and representatives of the Swedish Armed Forces. One conclusion made is that the Swedish Sea Cadet Corps could be considered as a good recruitment base, where youngsters can try and evaluate military life, which thereafter can lead to motivated and committed recruits.

This thesis is focused on the importance of large herbivore pasture for arthropod communities in temperate steppe. The study site was located in former military training area Milovice, regional biodiversity hotspot, where wild horses and aurochs were introduced as an active measure aimed at biodiversity conservation. Main goals of proposed study were to assess the role of vegetation structure and presence of grazing on beetle species composition in two trap heights, to examine suitability of flight intercept traps for monitoring arthropods of open habitats, to set the continuous arthropod monitoring program on the site and to propose a suitable model groups to assess habitat changes.

Esse grupo foi contratado pelo governo estadual paulista junto ao exército francês, e seus trabalhos se iniciaram em 1906. Como verificamos na pesquisa, a criação da Academia visou à manutenção da hegemonia política da oligarquia cafeeira do oeste paulista em todo país. A atual Academia do Barro Branco é o local onde são formados os profissionais da área de segurança pública, responsáveis pelo comando dos policiais militares que atuam em todas as cidades do Estado de São Paulo no atendimento emergencial da população em casos de crimes e outras demandas públicas, bem como no policiamento ostensivo para preservar aquilo que o capitalismo define como ordem pública. Essa escola militar, portanto, resulta de um processo histórico iniciado a partir da profissionalização da então Força Pública durante a República Velha, empreendimento eivado do ideário republicano e demais ideologias que permeavam o discurso educacional da época. Metodologicamente, para a elaboração do trabalho, foi procedido amplo levantamento bibliográfico sobre o período e a temática; recorrendo-se também às fontes primárias relativas à criação e implementação da Academia. Em seus capítulos, verificam-se a contextualização histórica na transição Império-República, o histórico da força policial paulista até o período de interesse da pesquisa e a inserção do objeto de estudo na legislação da época; descreve-se a invernada do Barro Branco - local escolhido para a instalação da escola pesquisada - e analisa-se a evolução curricular do Curso de Formação de Oficiais. / Abstract: This dissertation elucidates the history of the Military Training School named "Barro Branco" Academy, located in the north of the capital city, São Paulo, mainly regarding the particular occasion of the creation of this training school for officers of the then Public Force, what took place in 1913 when the State Law was promulgated and the Special Military Course was created with the cooperation of a foreign mission for military training. The Sao Paulo State Government made an agreement with the French Army and the work of the foreign group started in 1906. As it can be observed in the research, the purpose of creating the Academy was to keep on the political hegemony of the coffee oligarchy from the west of São Paulo throughout the country. The "Barro Branco" Academy is now the place where professionals of the public safety area are trained to be responsible for the command of military officers who work in all the towns and cities of São Paulo State providing the population with emergency care concerning crimes and other public demands as well as ostensible policing in order to preserve what the capitalism calls public order. This military school, therefore, is the result of a historical process, which began with the professionalization of the then Public Force during the Old Republic, and reflects the Republican Thinking together with other ideologies that permeated the educational speech of the time. Methodologically, to elaborate this dissertation, an extensive bibliography survey was performed on the period of the facts and on the main theme, making use of the primary sources related to the creation and implementation of the Academy. In its chapters, it is possible to observe the historical context during the transition period from the Empire to the Republic System as well as a detailed report on the police force in São Paulo up to the research period of interest and the insertion of the object of study in the legislation of the time. It is also described the development of the "Barro Branco Academy", the place where the researched training school was installed. In the end, an analysis is made on the curricular evolution of the Officers Training Course. / Mestrado / Filosofia e História da Educação / Mestre em Educação

When interviewing female conscripts, Emma Lindgren Lauritzon (2012) found that they perceived their basic military training in the Swedish Armed Forces as a negative experience. The women felt that the environment was hostile and that they served on the conditions of men. This is especially alarming since the unequal conscription was replaced by voluntary service for all in 2010, making the Swedish defence dependent on attracting the whole population to fill up its necessary positions. Therefore, this thesis examines how female recruits experience the new basic military training and if the structural transformation, with a more gender equal entrance, has had an impact on the individual level. Eight semi-structured interviews were conducted, designed and presented by a deductive thematic analysis, and later interpreted through feministic and gender organizational theories. The results indicate a positive development in their experiences, and more so – a new development of the women feeling especially wanted and needed. This perceived dependency on women is arguably in the risk of backfiring, generating guilt if they disappoint the organisation. This study gives vital insight to the organisation in question, the Swedish Armed Forces, and also several new and interesting aspects to build future research on regarding women in the military.
