...most part the processes of national self-determination and modernization in the third world cannot occur simultaneously. The terms themselves are contradictory. Modernization, by current definition, represents an attempt by the powerless to conform to what is accepted as the best and most efficient by the nations that wield the most power. And this is the problem that faces those "backward, underdeveloped" nations of the third world for whom the superpowers are so willing to supply technological know-how: Western science and technology developed as an outgrowth of the social setting in which they were born: Western Europe. The importation...

...none of this seems ever to occur to him. The most telling remark he made during his Princeton press conference was: "My critics are just like the people who tried to stifle Galileo." Shockley hastened to add that he wasn't trying to say he was another Galileo, but his heart wasn't in it; the thing about Shockley is that he really does think he is another Galileo.

...with a dominance-submission schema. Wherever there is sexual intercourse in the context of dominance/submission, it should rightfully be called rape. For in order to enforce dominance, agression must be employed, be it physical or psychological. I shudder to think of the number of rapes that probably occur on this very campus every day, to think of the numberless forced into submission, thereby making "actual," "overt," "illegal" rape by their partners unnecessary. Harvard males are not usually driven to the streets to find outlet for their agressive desires; they have outlets for dominance, whether in sexual intercourse itself...
