M.A. (History) / The USA became formally involved in the second World War in December, 1941, after the Japanese attack on the American Naval Base of Pearl Harbour. Franklin D. Roosevelt was so obsessed with the idea of defeating Germany that he failed to set clear guidelines for the post-war era as regards Germany. He commenced from the erroneous supposition that wartime co-operation with Britain and the Soviet Union would be continued after the war and that the Great Three Would decide on, Germany's future in the postwar era. As a result the USA's German policy of 1944-45 was marked by ambiquities. As a consequence of Roosevelt's indecision, Britain took the initiative in partitioning Germany into occupation zones. This division gave the Soviet Union an advantage as well as planting the seed for the partition of Germany in 1949. The Western Powers obtained no guarantees from the ~oviet Union for their free passage into Berlin. Consequently the Soviet Union could blockade Berlin in June 1948. In April 1945, directive JCS-1067 was issued setting out the basis for the USA'S German policy. In the punitive clauses of JCS-1067 Henry Morgenthau's influence on President Roosevelt is clearly apparent. The majority of punitive clauses of JCS-1067 were taken up verbatim in the Potsdam Agreement of July-August 1945. The Potsdam Agreement stipulated that Germany was to be handled as an economic entity. However, France and the Soviet Union thwarted economic co-operation between the Occupation Forces. This led to a change in the USA's German Policy from early 1946...

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited / China and Korea have had relations for more than two thousand years. During that period, China greatly influenced Korea. However, as a result of China's defeat in the Sino-Japanese War in 1894-1895 and the Japanese annexation of Korea from 1910 to 1945, the influence of China over Korea began to wane and was then lost. Meanwhile, while the People's Republic of China (PRC) was the Republic of Korea (ROK)'s primary enemy state, and the United States became the ROK's only military alliance state, particularly due to their intervention in the Korean War in the Cold War era, the PRC, coupled with the United States, has become one of the most important partnership countries of the ROK in terms of security and economy on the Korean peninsula in the post-Cold War era. More importantly, the PRC is the only state which enjoys good relations with the two Koreas. Under these circumstances, the ROK's amicable relations with the PRC and the United States must be extremely important factors for Korean reconciliation and the reunification process. This thesis mainly examines Korea's historical relations with China and the United States, anticipates the role of China in Korean unification, and offers policy recommendations. / Lieutenant Commander, South Korean Navy

Timor situa-se na Insulíndia, periferia do grande Arquipélago Malaio, ao norte da Austrália. O solo é montanhoso e bastante compartimentado, originando uma diversidade climática com repercussões sobre a fauna e a flora do território, e contribuindo para a formação de grupos etnolinguísticos na população que, desde o Paleolítico, o habitou. De igual modo, a organização política administrativa da sociedade timorense mais antiga reflectia essa dispersão, apesar da similitude da estrutura e do funcionamento dos reinos em que se agrupava. Aos elementos proto-malaios e à cultura austronésia predominantes, foram juntar-se, ao longo do tempo, outros grupos étnicos e várias influências próximas ou maisa longínquas, das quais se destaca, sobretudo na parte oriental da ilha de Timor, a exercida pelos portugueses. A presença portuguesa iniciada nos princípios do século XVI, esteve sempre condicionada por uma subalternidade do território que, em períodos sucessivos, se revestiu de aspectos diferentes. Logo no século seguinte, a perda de Malaca(1641) distanciou mais o arquipélago de Timor de um grande centro. Desde então,a distância, a carência de comunicações e a forte implantação holandesa na região, tornaram muito precária a sua manutenção, pelo menos até à segunda metade do séc. XIX. A dependência de Goa e Macau, entre os séculos XVIII e os finais do séc. XIX, evidenciam uma política essencialmente administrativa para a conservação da colónia, explorando sobretudo os seus recursos naturais de que o sândalo é o melhor exemplo. Por seu lado, as estruturas tradicionais indígenas mantinham-se praticamente intocáveis, possibilitando uma coexistência de tipo senhorial, que não se coadunava com as novas orientações de política colonial definidas na Conferência de Berlim.

This thesis' focuses on the characterization of the "woman", who occupies a very prominent part in the dramatic works of playwright Georg Kaiser (1878-1945). The purpose of this study is twofold: the first part re-examines the early plays Die judische Witwe (1910) and Europa (1910) and basically re-affirms the findings that Judith and Europa are "elementary beings", driven by only one force, their overpowering sexual desire. It can be pointed out, though, that already in these plays Kaiser turned toward mythology - which includes Old and New Testament for him - in the choice of his• protagonists. The examination of Das Frauenopfer (1918) and Octobertag (1928) shows that, contrary to previous opinion, it is not erotic adventurism which motivates the women in these plays, but a more spiritualized love which, though it may have started with erotic desires, transcends reality by its intensity of feeling. In Das Frauenopfer the woman sacrifices herself twice for her husband who experiences a second “rerbirth" through her death. In Oktobertag Catherine's intensity of feeling is so strong that she is living in a "higher realm of reality", which is the only reality for her. Through her love she lifts the man Marrien to the heights of her world. Marrien proclaims the beginning of a "second life" for himself which only now is his real life. Their life together becomes poss£ble only through the death of another man, however. The actual importance in these plays lies in these recurring motives: the intertwining of life and death, where life is possible only through the death of someone, and the theme of re-birth, a second life, where a parallel experience in Kaiser's own life can be seen. Kaiser's move in the direction of primary - primeval - human experience is underscored by the orphan-childhood of the protagonists: Countess Lavalette, Elise, Catherine, and Rosamunde share the fate of being orphans, a fate which is an archetypical experience, prominent in myths. The second part examines the plays Alain und Elise (1938) and Rosamunde Floris (1937/38). These plays have been called absurd and incomprehensible in that Elise and Rosamunde heap lies, exile and death on people around them and are still not guilty of any crime. The plain dramatic action is incomprehensible, but the examination of the symbols shows that they all belong to the subconscious layer of archetypical symbols present in all mankind, taken either directly from Greek mythology or having parallels in the symbols of the Great Mother, as described by c. G. Jung and others. Through recognition of these symbols Elise is shown to be a mythical figure and Rosamunde is recognized to be a Demeter-Kore figure, which in Greek mythology represents the synthesis of the goddesses of Life and Death. The further examination of Kaiser's writings points out that his goal was to show the "synthesis of man", man's Allheit, his courage to live "though man has death in him from the first day of his life". Kaiser's essay Mythos states that man, through the ages, tried to explain the secrets of Life and Death in myths. For Kaiser, the role of the woman takes on this dimension, since woman, by her very nature, is closest to the secrets of the "Great Mother". In this study it can be shown how Kaiser's image of the woman changes from the one-sidedness of the early plays to the all embracing mythical beings of the late plays. The "mythical existence" explains the paradox that these murdering women are shown to be images of innocence: man in myth does not have a personal conscience. His acts are responsible only to a collectivistic, conformistic type of law. This, too, is implied in Kaiser's essay Mythos, and perhaps the prominence of characters without personal conscience has implications for the time during which these plays were written, Germany at the height of the “Myth of the Twentieth Century”.
