Excerpt: ... are found in the rural schools of the state. In order that these schools, which are certainly deserving of the best, may have trained teachers, Wisconsin and some other states haveprovlded a county teachers' training school. The applicants are limited to the county and the graduates flnd their field of work in the rural schools of the county. The county supervisors may establish the school and levy the tax for its support. They must provide a. building or rooms for the accommodation of the school and maintain it for a year. After that the state furnishes one-half the money required for its support, provided the expense in any one year does not exceed $3500. Graduates from this school receive a. license for three years which is_ good only in that county. The course of study covers from one to two years, according to the preparation of those who enter. The very best teachers are employed and, while there is but little chance for practice, there is good opportunity for observation in the city schools, and this school itself is a model school. The Wisconsin law also authorizes the supervisors to establish a county agricultural school under similar c0nditions--the state to pay onehalf the cost of maintenance after the first year. Recently I had the pleasure of visiting one or each of these schools at Menominee in Dunn county, Wisconsin. The county erected a. twostory brick building costing $25,000. The agricultural school is on the first floor and the county training school on the floor above. Three superior teachers are employed in each school. 1 was greatly impressed with the genuine normal t.eaching and the superior character of the work that is being done.

New. .. .. In recent decades there has been increasing attention to mass atrocities such as genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and other gross human rights violations. At the same time, there has been a vast increase in the number of academics and researchers seeking to analyze the causes of, and offer practical responses to, these atrocities. Yet there remains insufficient discussion of the practical and ethical challenges surrounding research into serious abuses and dealing with vulnerable populations. The aim of this edited volume is to guide researchers in identifying and addressing challenges in conducting qualitative research in difficult circumstances, such as conducting research in autocratic or uncooperative regimes, with governmental or non-governmental officials, and perhaps most importantly, with reluctant respondents such as victims of genocide or (on the other side of the coin) war criminals. The volume proceeds in five substantive sections, each addressing a different challenge of conducting field research in conflict-affected or repressive situations: Ethics Access Veracity Security Identity, objectivity, behaviour. This important text will be vital reading for students, scholars and researchers in the areas of research methods, international relations, anthropology and human rights. It will also be of keen interest to policy practioners and NGOs, and especially relevant for those working in the regions of Africa, Latin America, and Asia. 1.

The leading provisions relating to the state-wide initiative and referendum may be summarized under fivemain headings, as follows: (I) the scope of the initiative and referendum, (II) procedure for initiative petitions, (III) procedure for referendum, (IV) enactment of referred measures, and (V) penalties. I. Scope Op The State-wide Initiative And Keperendum In the United States the initiative and referendum have been applied to constitutional and statutory law; they have also been employed to obtain expressions of public opinion on state affairs, and to secure instructions as to party policy within political parties. Constitutional Law. The constitutional amendments for the initiative and referendum in state affairs apply generally to constitutional law. Exceptions. Some of the states exempt constitutional amendments from the operation of the initiative. See Mont. Const. (Amend. 1906), art. 5, sec. 1; Me. (Amend. 1908) Resolves, 1907, ch. 121, pp. 1476-1481; Wash. Const. (Amend. 1912), art 2, sec. 1; Idaho Const. (Amend. 1912) art. 3, sec. 1. Statutory law. As regards statutory law, some of the amendments provide for specific exceptions as to the use of the referendum, and nearly all provide for emergency measures. Exceptions. The specific exceptions generally relate to appropriations for the current expenses of the state government, for the maintenance of the state institutions, and for the support of the public schools. Acts calling elections are not subject to the referendum in Calif. Acts providing for tax levies are likewise excepted in Calif., and in Ohio. Laws providing for the current expenses of the state government and state institutions can not be subjected to referendum vote in Ariz., Calif., Mo. or Ohio. See also, Colo, and Me. Appro...
