Altschuler and Isaac Kramnick examine the institution in the context of the emergence of the modern research university. The book examines Cornell during the Cold War, the civil rights movement, Vietnam, antiapartheid protests, the ups and downs of varsity athletics, the women's movement, the opening of relations with China, and the creation of Cornell NYC Tech. It relates profound, fascinating, and little-known incidents involving the faculty, administration, and student life, connecting them to the "Cornell idea" of freedom and responsibility. The authors had access to all existing papers of the presidents of Cornell, which deeply informs their respectful but unvarnished portrait of the university. Institutions, like individuals, develop narratives about themselves. Cornell constructed its sense of self, of how it was special and different, on the eve of World War II, when America defended democracy from fascist dictatorship. Cornell's fifth president, Edmund Ezra Day, and Carl Becker, its preeminent historian, discerned what they called a Cornell "soul," a Cornell "character," a Cornell "personality," a Cornell "tradition"-and they called it "freedom." "The Cornell idea" was tested and contested in Cornell's second seventy-five years. Cornellians used the ideals of freedom and responsibility as weapons for change-and justifications for retaining the status quo; to protect academic freedom-and to rein in radical professors; to end in loco parentis and parietal rules, to preempt panty raids, pornography, and pot parties, and to reintroduce regulations to protect and promote the physical and emotional well-being of students; to add nanofabrication, entrepreneurship, and genomics to the curriculum-and to require language courses, freshmen writing, and physical education. In the name of freedom (and responsibility), black students occupied Willard Straight Hall, the anti-Vietnam War SDS took over the Engineering Library, proponents of divestment from South Africa built campus shantytowns, and Latinos seized Day Hall. In the name of responsibility (and freedom), the university reclaimed them. The history of Cornell since World War II, Altschuler and Kramnick believe, is in large part a set of variations on the narrative of freedom and its partner, responsibility, the obligation to others and to one's self to do what is right and useful, with a principled commitment to the Cornell community-and to the world outside the Eddy Street gate. 606 $aEDUCATION / Higher$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aEDUCATION / Higher. 676 $a379.747/71 700 $aAltschuler$b Glenn C.$0879880 702 $aKramnick$b Isaac 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465853303321 996 $aCornell$92451231 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03070nam 2200457 450 001 9910807608303321 005 20191125083657.0 010 $a1-5017-2356-1 024 7 $a10.7591/9781501723568 035 $a(CKB)4100000008622367 035 $a(DE-B1597)527392 035 $a(OCoLC)1105893301 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781501723568 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5965013 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5965013 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000008622367 100 $a20191125d1999 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCapital moves $eRCA's seventy-year quest for cheap labor /$fJefferson Cowie 210 1$aIthaca, New York ;$aLondon :$cCornell University Press,$d[1999] 210 4$dİ1999 215 $a1 online resource (x, 273 pages) $cillustrations 311 $a0-8014-3525-0 311 $a0-8014-8522-3 327 $tFrontmatter -- $tContents -- $tAbbreviations -- $tIntroduction -- $t1.

What is an employer to do then? Why, find another poor community desperate for work. This route-one taken time and again by major American manufacturers-is vividly chronicled in this fascinating account of RCA's half century-long search for desirable sources of labor. Capital Moves introduces us to the people most affected by the migration of industry and, most importantly, recounts how they came to fight against the idea that they were simply "cheap labor."Jefferson Cowie tells the dramatic story of four communities, each irrevocably transformed by the opening of an industrial plant. From the manufacturer's first factory in Camden, New Jersey, where it employed large numbers of southern and eastern European immigrants, RCA moved to rural Indiana in 1940, hiring Americans of Scotch-Irish descent for its plant in Bloomington. Then, in the volatile 1960s, the company relocated to Memphis where African Americans made up the core of the labor pool. Finally, the company landed in northern Mexico in the 1970s-a region rapidly becoming one of the most industrialized on the continent. 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Labor & Industrial Relations$2bisacsh 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Labor & Industrial Relations. 676 $a338.76213810973 700 $aCowie$b Jefferson$01689441 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807608303321 996 $aCapital moves$94064521 997 $aUNINA
