The Least of These: American Evangelical Parachurch Missions to the Poor, 1947-2005

This dissertation narrates the historical development of American evangelical missions to the poor from 1947-2005 and analyzes the discourse of its main parachurch proponents, especially World Vision, Compassion International, Food for the Hungry, Samaritan's urse, Sojourners, Evangelicals for Social Action, and the Christian Community Development Association. Although recent scholarship on evangelicalism has been prolific, much of the historical work has focused on earlier periods. Sociological and political scientific scholarship on the postwar period has been attracted mostly to controversies surrounding the Religious Right, leaving evangelicalism's resurgent concern for the poor relatively understudied. This dissertation addresses these lacunae. The study consists of three chronological parts, each marked by a distinctive model of mission to the poor. First, the 1950s were characterized by compassionate charity for individual emergencies, a model that cohered neatly with evangelicalism's individualism and emotionalism. This model should be regarded as the quintessential, bedrock evangelical theory of mission to the poor. It remained strong throughout the entire postwar period. Second, in the 1970s, a strong countercurrent emerged that advocated for penitent protest against structural injustice and underdevelopment. In contrast to the first model, it was distinguished by going against the grain of many aspects of evangelical culture, especially its reflexive patriotism and individualism. Third, in the 1990s, an important movement towards developing potential through hopeful holism gained prominence. Its advocates were confident that their integration of biblical principles with insights from contemporary economic development praxis would contribute to drastic, widespread reductions in poverty. This model signaled a new optimism in evangelicalism's engagement with the broader world. The increasing prominence of missions to the poor within American evangelicalism led to dramatic changes within the movement's worldview: by 2005, evangelicals were mostly unified in their expressed concern for the physical and social needs of the poor, a position that radically reversed their immediate postwar worldview of near-exclusive focus on the spiritual needs of individuals. Nevertheless, missions to the poor also paralleled, reinforced, and hastened the increasing fragmentation of evangelicalism's identity, as each missional model advocated for highly variant approaches to poverty amelioration that were undergirded by diverse sociological, political, and theological assumptions.

Reality Shows in Chile, origin and road map. Historical-Communication Dialogues

Reality shows are TV programs which represent a format used in television nowadays; however, the observation practices of individual and/or group intimacy dates from thousands years ago. Sometimes this was driven by voyeurism or morbid fascination, some others, by the purpose of guarding, supervising and maintaining status quo. This work offers an alternative answer to the explanation of this type of TV program emergence and relates this appearance to a government procedure bound up with modern State terrorism which began at the end of the eighteenth century and has been recalled by different regimes until present days.

The Hekla 1947 tephra in the North of Ireland: regional distribution, concentration and geochemistry.

A cryptotephra layer from the eruption of Hekla in 1947 has recently been discovered in Irish peatlands. This tephra layer represents the most recent deposition of volcanic ash in the UK prior to the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull in 2010. Here we examine the concentration and geochemistry of the Hekla 1947 tephra in 14 peat profiles from across Northern Ireland. Electron probe microanalysis of individual tephra shards (n?=?91) reveals that the tephra is of dacitic–andesitic geochemistry and is highly similar to the Hekla 1510 tephra, although spheroidal carbonaceous particle profiles can be used for successful discrimination of the two layers. The highest concentrations of Hekla 1947 are found in western sites, probably reflecting the pathway of the ash fall event due to the prevailing wind direction. Comparable tephra concentrations from two cores (1?km apart) from a single bog and from nearby sites may suggest that tephra shard concentrations in peat profiles reflect ash fallout densities across a specific region, rather than site-specific factors associated with peatlands. This paper firmly establishes Hekla 1947 as a useful chronostratigraphic marker for the twentieth century, although within a restricted zone.

Preservação e conservação de desenhos técnicos : o caso da subcolecção do Bairro do Caramão da Ajuda (1947-1983)

Os arquivos de arquitectura constituem a memória do processo criativo do que foi construído em várias épocas. A Subcolecção Desenhos Técnicos do Bairro do Caramão da Ajuda (1947-­‐1983) é parte integrante de um acervo histórico de peças desenhadas de arquitectura que integram o Arquivo da Divisão de Projectos de Equipamentos da Câmara Municipal de Lisboa. O presente estudo pretende aplicar um modelo de gestão desse património, operacionalizando a avaliação do seu estado físico, de modo sistemático, com medidas de preservação e conservação adaptadas e eficientes. Na concepção metodológica teve em conta a norma de preservação associada à identificação, à classificação da fragilidade e de patologias a nível da estrutura e dos suportes e o atlas visual de danos para a identificação de patologias mais comuns de forma a esclarecer o tipo e causas dos danos e definir o seu nível e modo de acessibilidade. Verificamos a possibilidade de preservação e conservação dos desenhos a médio-­‐longo prazo ao promover -­‐ a partir de uma avaliação metódica -­‐ a percepção de documentos em risco, seja em depósito, seja em caso de acesso directo ou de acesso à sua reprodução. Esta metodologia permitiu desenvolver uma perspectiva integrada de avaliação, o registo objectivo do estado de conservação e a determinação de prioridades associadas aos respectivos programas de intervenção.

A fotografia em contexto colonial: tratamento arquivístico da documentação fotográfica da Missão Antropológica e Etnológica da Guiné entre 1946-1947

O presente Relatório de Estágio é o resultado de um conjunto de actividades realizadas no Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino (AHU), que incidiram na documentação fotográfica produzida no âmbito da Missão Antropológica e Etnológica da Guiné, chefiada pelo Professor Amílcar de Magalhães Mateus, entre 1946 e 1947. O tratamento arquivístico da referida documentação consistiu na identificação, organização, higienização, acondicionamento, descrição e digitalização, com vista a preservação e posterior disponibilização, bem como identificar o contexto de produção em que a mesma foi produzida e verificar o respeito pelos princípios da proveniência e da ordem original. O presente trabalho pretende contribuir para o aprofundamento do conhecimento sobre o papel da fotografia como ferramenta para o conhecimento e trabalho científico, bem como a sua importância e estatuto no campo da arquivística
