Philanthropic Foundations at the League of Nations (eBook, ePUB)
This book presents a comprehensive analysis of the relations between US philanthropic foundations (in particular the Rockefeller Foundation and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace) and the League of Nations. Generations of students and scholars have learned that the US, having played a key role in the creation of the League of Nations in 1919, did not join the organization and stood aloof from its activities during the whole interwar period. Tournès questions this idea and argues that, even though the US was not a de jure member of the League of Nations, the financial, human, and intellectual investment of foundations brought about the de facto integration of the US within the League system, and also modified the latter's architecture. The book describes the Americanization of the League and shows how it resulted from three strategies pursued throughout the interwar period: that of US foundations, that of the Secretariat, and that of the US federal government. It also shows the limits of this Americanization and analyzes the role of the European experts in the coproduction of the postwar international order together with the US government. This book will be of interest to historians and political scientists, as well as undergraduate and graduate students in interdisciplinary programs of international relations.- Shop: buecher

Christians, Jews and Muslims: Dialogue, Relationship and the Catholic View, Hörbuch, Digital, 219min
Drawing on decades of study, dialogue, and teaching, Dr. Borelli presents a truly Catholic approach to inter religious dialogue. This presentation will open the minds and hearts of the listeners and prepare them to better understand the ever-shrinking world where Christians, Jews, and Muslims will interact on an ever more personal basis. He presents the basic theological perspectives of the major religions and shows how the current political atmosphere impacts on every aspect of theological dialogue. He gives a history of the Church’s position from Nostra Aetate until today and chronicles the progress that has been made and the setbacks that have taken place. This program will dispel many of the myths about Islam and help the listener understand the misconceptions that many Muslims have about Christianity and Judaism. Dr. Borelli is Special Assistant for inter religious Initiatives to the President of Georgetown University. He has served as Associate Director of the Secretariat for Ecumenical Affairs at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and interim Director for 2001-2002. He has been a Consulter to the Vatican’s Pontifical Council of Inter Religious dialogue and Relations for the Jesuits in the United States. These presentations will inform the laity, educate the clergy, and give the individual the basic tools needed for entering into the important pastoral initiative of listening to and speaking to members of other believing communities.

Kelso: The Horse of Gold , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 357min
At his three-year debut in June 1960, no one could know that Mrs. Allaire DuPont’s small, deerlike gelding named Kelso would come to dominate American racing like no other horse before or since. For five unprecedented years, he would reign as Horse of the Year, setting records and endearing himself to millions of fans. Always considered among the top four horses of all time, with Man o' War, Secretariat, and Citation, for many Kelso is the greatest racehorse, since he won at sprints and endurance races, won on turf and dirt, carried unprecedented handicap weights, and raced both foreign and national thoroughbreds. Kelso was crowned champion of the Jockey Gold Cup, one of the most prestigious racing events, an astounding five straight times. Like Seabiscuit, Kelso was not earmarked as a contender and missed the Triple Crown races. But Kelso's greatness was decisive: He regularly defeated Triple Crown race winners.In Kelso: The Horse of Gold, Linda Kennedy tells the remarkable story of one of the greatest athletes of the ages, recreating the excitement of "Kelly's" unique and brilliant career while placing his unparalleled achievements in the context of racing history.The book is published by Westholme Publishing. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks."Will charm and excite those who saw Kelso run and remember his stirring deeds." (Wall Street Journal)"In this concise, entertaining account, Kennedy tells the story of Kelso, a scrawny ungainly gelding who just happened to be one of the greatest Thoroughbreds that ever lived." (Publishers Weekly)"An excellent portrayal...so intense that one has the sensation of being right there with the crowd and cheering Kelso on." (Tom Trotter, former New York Racing secretary) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Randi Bachman. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/187014/bk_acx0_187014_sample.mp3.
