The purpose of this study was to write a biography of Thomas Bullock and discover his possible contributions to religious and profane history.

This study is a history of a group of Latter-day Saints who travelled from Kirtland, Ohio to Adam-ondi-Ahman, Caldwell County, Missouri during the late summer and early autumn, 1838. The group numbered between five and six hundred when they left Kirtland and had diminished to approximately half that many at the end of their journey.The official name, "Kirtland Camp," was adopted by the group which was originally founded and governed by seven men, i.e. the Seventies Presidency in Kirtland.The camp was organized to assist Church members who otherwise would have been unable to escape persecutions in Ohio. Camp membership consisted of those who were elderly, infirm or lacking necessary finances to flee by themselves. Although sickness, death and dissension plagued the camp members during their exodus, faith, determination and able leadership contributed to the successful completion of the trek.The formulation of Kirtland Camp and the unique nature of its Camp Constitution became the pattern for the organization of later Mormon pioneer exiles under Brigham Young.

O presente trabalho propõe uma investigação sobre as origens do ensino de design, no âmbito de bacharelado na cidade de São Paulo, tomandose como referências: documentação primária dos cursos (grades curriculares, ementas das disciplinas, projetos pedagógicos, trabalhos acadêmicos), bibliografia específica, contextos históricos e depoimentos dos personagens que participaram de suas histórias. Desse modo, objetiva-se buscar conhecer os princípios do ensino paulistano do design com foco na formação profissional / acadêmica oferecida e verificar possíveis relações entre as primeiras Instituições que implantaram disciplinas ou cursos de desenho industrial (design de produto e design gráfico) com a finalidade de identificar uma possível (ou mais) matriz conceitual do ensino regular de design. A partir de uma abordagem qualitativa pretende-se resgatar a história da implementação do ensino paulistano de design e a contribuição dos que fizeram parte da abertura e desenvolvimento desse ensino nos primeiros anos da formação acadêmica em nível superior. As informações recebidas dos participantes nas montagens dos cursos e as obtidas paralelamente dos registros ainda existentes na academia, objetiva possibilitar melhor compreensão sobre o perfil profissional que se pretendia no cenário paulistano da época. Com isso, esta pesquisa pretende contribuir com os estudos e reflexões sobre as elaborações atuais e futuras dos cursos e de planos educacionais no campo do design por meio de um resgate de suas origens. / This work presents a research into the origins of the teaching of design at college in São Paulo City having as a reference: basic course documents (curricula, amendments, pedagogic projects, academic works), especial bibliographies , historical context and the talks of the people engaged in those facts. This way one aims to the very beginning of the design teaching in São Paulo with focus on the professional and academic background off ered and on verifying the probable relations among the early Institutes that implemented disciplines or courses of industrial design (product and graphic design ) searching in order to identify a possible matrix of concepts of the regular teaching of design. From a qualitative approach the work intends to rescue the setting up of the teaching of design in São Paulo and the contribution of those who took part of the birth and development of this teaching in the early years of the academic formation at university level. The knowledge acquired from the contributors in the assembling of the courses and that one simultaneously obtained from records still existing at the academy has as a target to make possible a better understanding over professional skills desired in São Paulo scenario at the time. Thus, this work intends to contribute to the researches and thoughts over the elaboration of present and future courses and to the educational planning in the field of design through the rescue of its origins.

This is an important and recurring theme in terms of research in the field of Brazilian education in order to launch new comprehensive and interpretive lights because, considered a structural and political in the history of Brazilian Education. The aim in this thesis, verticalization of the analyzes with the guiding question the role of real devices, we selected, "Pioneers" and "New Education", his senses in order to make it legitimate, as set out by the famous Bahian educator Teixeira. The theoretical corpus was made up of the contributions of Foucault (1986, 1996, 1997, 2002, 2003), Ghiraldelli Jr (2003), Ianni (1978, 1992, 2003), Saviani (2012, 2013a, 2013b), Monarcha (1989), Cury (1988, 2001, 2007), among others. The empirical corpus consisted of an investigative theme bibliographical balance on theses and dissertations in education 2005-2015 (Source: BDTD) and intellectual production Teixeira 1920-1934 (Source: Virtual Library Teixeira-UFBA), 03 Literary- 1928,1934a and 1934b; 04 Periodicals-1924,1930,1932a and 1932b; 02 Speeches- 1924 and 1931, 02 Reports-e1928 1925; 02 Texts Unpublished- 1925 and 1927, 01 Brochure- 1925; 01 Translation- 1930. All theoretical and bibliographic contribution was assesed by content analysis methodology (FRANCO, 2008). The main findings pointed to the Manifest as detailed event by a particular historical-politicaleducational environment. The hypothesis of this research to compose this formulator speech, two truths devices "Pioneers" and "New Education" present in the Manifesto of the speech was proven. As devices, structured way seized in bibliographical works of 1920-1934 Teixeira. The device "New Education" enlightened by modern liberal ideas is more recurrent in making the Truth Discourse a legitimate political enunciation. / Este trabalho inserido na Linha de Pesquisa Educação, Sociedade e Cultura, propõe, por meio de uma pesquisa qualitativa de base bibliográfica, realizar uma leitura crítica-reflexiva do Manifesto dos Pioneiros da Educação Nova no Brasil de 1932, à luz do pensamento de Anísio Teixeira, um de seus 26 Signatários, e do filósofo Michel Foucault, a partir do recorte ACONTECIMENTO, DISCURSO (formação e anunciação) e VERDADE, expresso pelos seus dispositivos de verdade. O Manifesto tem se constituído historicamente como temática relevante e recorrente em termos de investigações no campo da educação brasileira, com o propósito de lançar sobre ela novas luzes compreensivas e interpretativas consideradas um marco estrutural e político na história da Educação Brasileira. Pretende-se, nesta tese, verticalizar as análises, tendo como questão norteadora o papel dos dispositivos de verdade, por nós selecionados, “Pioneiros” e “Educação Nova”, procurando desvelar seus sentidos a partir de sua enunciação pelo célebre educador baiano, Anísio Teixeira. O corpus teórico foi constituído pelas contribuições de Foucault (1986, 1996,1997, 2002, 2003), Ghiraldelli Jr (2003), Ianni (1978, 1992, 2003), Saviani (2012, 2013a,2013b), Monarcha (1989), Cury (1988, 2001, 2007), dentre outros. O corpus empírico foi constituído por um balanço bibliográfico temático investigativo acerca das teses e dissertações em educação 2005-2015 (Fonte: BDTD) e a produção intelectual de Anísio Teixeira 1920-1934 (Fonte: Biblioteca Virtual Anísio Teixeira-UFBA, 03 Obras Literárias-1928,1934a e 1934b; 04 Periódicos-1924,1930, 1932a e 1932b; 02 Discursos - 1924 e 1931; 02 Relatórios- 1925 e1928; 02 Textos Inéditos- 1925 e 1927; 01 Folheto- 1925; 01 Tradução- 1930. Todo o aporte teórico-bibliográfico foi avaliado à luz da metodologia de análise de conteúdo (FRANCO, 2008). As principais conclusões apontaram o Manifesto como acontecimento circunstanciado por uma determinada conjuntura histórico-políticopedagógica. A hipótese desta pesquisa de compor este discurso formulado a partir de dois dispositivos de verdade, “Pioneiros” e “Educação Nova”, presentes no interior do discurso do Manifesto, foi comprovada. Como dispositivos, estruturam os sentidos apreendidos nas obras bibliográficas 1920-1934 de Anísio Teixeira. O dispositivo “Educação Nova”, iluminado pelas ideias liberais modernas, é mais recorrente no sentido de tornar a Verdade do Discurso uma enunciação política legítima.

This thesis combines two studies: the role of livestock in the temporal salvation of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Mormon exodus of 1846 and Cornelius P. Lott's contribution in the care of cattle and sheep during that time period. At Winter Quarters, the Church and its members depended in large measure for their survival upon the sizeable cattle herds they had acquired prior to their exodus from Nauvoo and during their trek across Iowa. Church leaders relied on men like Lott, whose expertise in the care of livestock, contributed significantly to the salvation of the Latter-day Saints. The work investigates the American agriculture and livestock industry in the first half of the nineteenth century for the context in which the Latter-day Saints acquired livestock and subsequently herded them across Iowa. During that time period, Missouri and Illinois had an abundance of good livestock, which contributed to success of the Mormon exodus. After their expulsion from the state of Missouri in 1838, the Church was left destitute of property and had to build up their livestock again. By 1846, they had amassed numerous herds, especially as they made a concerted effort to gather livestock in preparation for their exodus from Illinois. Along the Iowa trail, they continued acquiring cattle in great number by trading many of their possessions with local settlers. As Church leaders had designed, the Latter-day Saints arrived at the Missouri River with thousands of head of livestock. Their herds, particularly cattle, provided a significant lifeline for the Church in both sustenance and trade. Because the Latter-day Saints' livestock was such a precious commodity, Church leaders had to be selective in choosing men to care for the animals. Cornelius P. Lott represents that class of skilled hands who took on such assignments. He joined the Church in 1834 and became recognized by Joseph Smith in 1838 as he played a key role as a leader in the conflict against the Missouri mobs in 1838. He demonstrated his skills with livestock when the Prophet employed him as superintendent of the Smith farm in Nauvoo. Joseph Smith became well acquainted with Lott and favored him with unique privileges, including his participation in sacred temple ordinances, unavailable to most of the Church until later. Such experiences gave Lott opportunity to associate closely with Brigham Young and the Apostles. Hence, when Young sought for trusted men at the Missouri River who could care for the livestock, Lott was a natural choice. This study is valuable to Church history because it shows the importance of livestock and the men who cared for them in contributing to the success of the Mormon exodus and the temporal salvation of the Church. It is important in American history because gives insight into the role of cattle during the westward expansion era.

This dissertation consists of two self-contained chapters that empirically examine bidder firm returns of U.S. companies in cross-border mergers and acquisitions. In chapter one I examine how cultural distance between bidder and target country impacts internalization benefits. The results suggest that shareholders are initially concerned about the acquisition in culturally distant countries, which outweighs any potential benefits from internalization. However, in the long-run we observe a significant reversal of these findings. In the second and third year following the announcement, greater cultural distance positively impacts the bidder firm's operating performance and the bidder experiences significant internalization benefits from technological know-how when cultural distance is great. Long-run calendar-time returns further support this finding. These results add to the existing literature by highlighting the importance of cultural distance when examining internalization benefits. In chapter two I attempt to explain abnormal bidder firms' returns in cross-border mergers and acquisitions by comparing the first-mover hypothesis to the late-mover hypothesis. I also study the reactions of rival firms to bidder firm announcements as a further test of the first-mover hypothesis. The findings suggest that cross-border acquisitions are generally value-destroying for strategic pioneers unless cultural distance between the U.S. and the target country is great. Further, I find positive announcement effects for followers as long as cultural distance is small.

The social and economic structure of Oregon was influenced by the Donation Land Law. The Congressional law conferred upon early settlers to Oregon 320 acres, 640 if married (and settled before December 1, 1850). Oregon attracted settlers who desired land and were uninterested in commercial agriculture. The Oregon settlers who took advantage of the law were in a position to create their own society and economy. The purpose of this thesis is to identify the social and economic structure created by the Donation Land pioneers and to identify their land disposition strategy. This thesis examined the fifty households that comprised the neighborhood of Fabritus R. Smith. The neighborhood is defined as the fifty households with whom Smith dealt in 1854 and 1855. The neighborhood of the 1850s was a communally based society in which production was geared for household consumption, not commercial purposes. Settlers exchanged goods locally on a market that functioned on the basis of barter and a personal monetary system. The progression of time brought changes to the social and economic structure. Lineal families working for themselves replaced nuclear families working in community as a productive force. Salem's growth, and the rise of a cash economy replaced exchange among households. Donation Land pioneers who deeded land to their children created the lineal family structure of society. The production of the lineal family remained geared for household consumption, not commercial purposes. The farmers of the second generation did not change their objective, only their strategy to meet the new economy. Two additional strategies were identified. Some Donation Land pioneers disposed of their land and used the money to pursue other ventures outside Oregon. Other Donation Land pioneers sold their land and moved to Salem.
