Описание: The first major biography of America's twenty-eighth president in nearly two decades, from one of America's foremost Woodrow Wilson scholars. A Democrat who reclaimed the White House after sixteen years of Republican administrations, Wilson was a transformative president--he helped create the regulatory bodies and legislation that prefigured FDR's New Deal and would prove central to governance through the early twenty-first century, including the Federal Reserve system and the Clayton Antitrust Act; he guided the nation through World War I; and, although his advocacy in favor of joining the League of Nations proved unsuccessful, he nonetheless established a new way of thinking about international relations that would carry America into the United Nations era. Yet Wilson also steadfastly resisted progress for civil rights, while his attorney general launched an aggressive attack on civil liberties. Even as he reminds us of the foundational scope of Wilson's domestic policy achievements, John Milton Cooper, Jr., reshapes our understanding of the man himself: his Wilson is warm and gracious--not at all the dour puritan of popular imagination. As the president of Princeton, his encounters with the often rancorous battles of academe prepared him for state and national politics. Just two years after he was elected governor of New Jersey, Wilson, now a leader in the progressive movement, won the Democratic presidential nomination and went on to defeat Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft in one of the twentieth century's most memorable presidential elections. Ever the professor, Wilson relied on the strength of his intellectual convictions and the power of reason to win over the American people. John Milton Cooper, Jr., gives us a vigorous, lasting record of Wilson's life and achievements. This is a long overdue, revelatory portrait of one of our most important presidents--particularly resonant now, as another president seeks to change the way government relates to the people and regulates the economy.

At the 1919 Paris Peace Conference, where the victorious Allied powers met to reenvision the map of Europe in the aftermath of World War One, President Woodrow Wilson's influence on the remapping of borders was profound. But it was his impact on the modern political structuring of Eastern Europe that would be perhaps his most enduring international legacy: neither Czechoslovakia nor Yugoslavia exist today, but their geopolitical presence persisted across the twentieth century from the end of World War One to the end of the Cold War. They were created in large part thanks to Wilson's advocacy, and in particular, his Fourteen Points speech of January 1918, which hinged in large part on the concept of national self-determination.
But despite his deep involvement in the region's geopolitical transformation, President Wilson never set eyes on Eastern Europe, and never traveled to a single one of the eastern lands whose political destiny he so decisively influenced. Eastern Europe, invented in the age of Enlightenment by the travelers and philosophies of Western Europe, was reinvented on the map of the early twentieth century with the crucial intervention of an American president who deeply invested his political and emotional energies in lands that he would never visit.
This book traces how Wilson's emerging definition of national self-determination and his practical application of the principle changed over time as negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference unfolded. Larry Wolff exposes the contradictions between Wilson's principles and their implementation in the peace settlement for Eastern Europe, and sheds light on how his decisions were influenced by both personal relationships and his growing awareness of the history of the Ottoman and Habsburg empires.

Описание: Excerpt from An Address Delivered at the Inauguration of the Perkins Professor of Natural Science in Connexion With Revelation: Before the Board of Directors of the Theological Seminary of the Synod of South Carolina and Georgia, at Marietta, Georgia, November 22, 1861 Bible is held to teach, with a clearness that can not be mis understood, both directly and by implication, that the whole human family is descended from the single pair, Adam and Eve; the inspired Apostle's saying is quoted, God, that made the world and all things therein hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth: and this oneness is necessa rily implied in the doctrines of original sin, the federal headship of Adam, and the atonement of Christ. It is impossible to admit any doubt as to this unity, and at the same time believe in the truth of the most vital doctrines of our religion. And yet, it is most strenuously main tained by many, of no small repute in the scientific world, that numerous branches of knowledge conspire to prove this dogma false, and to demonstrate the diversity of hu man origin. The white, black, red, yellow, and brown races, with many intermediate, are held to be distinct species of animals, descended from different ancestors; closely allied to one another, it may be, but not more so than many species of the lower animals, universally ad mitted to be distinct. This is supposed to be demonstrated by the diversities in their anatomical and physiological characteristics, and by the difference in their mental con stitution; by the constancy of these diversities, as proved by pictures on the monuments of Egypt; by the determi nation of the bounds of their habitations by natural laws, just as rigidly as the bounds of the habitations of any other animals. For similar reasons, it is further main tained, not merely that the human genus has descended from many pairs of ancestors, but, also, that these were distributed geographically at the time of their introduc tion, as we now find their descendants.
