Perhaps the greatest danger of a program such as Kiely's is that it would evolve into another elite insituation-within-the-institution--a junior History and Literature or Social Studies. One safeguard would obviously be to make it available to everyone. Assuming that, at least at first, enrollment would be limited, a second safeguard would be to insure that admissions is not based on "academic preparedness." But ultimately the only sure safeguard would rest in the attitude adopted by the seminars' participants and the tone set by their originators. If they fall back on the familiar and myopic goal...
...would have known exactly what to think. He's have had a well-reasoned, documented analysis proving beyond a reasonable doubt that the whole business was the work of a few hard-core agitators, and that the National Guard's deplorable mistake, like the deplorable war it appeared to safeguard, merely played into the agitator's hands. Unlike Mr. Balser, the principal, Hutchinson could have expressed this analysis convincingly, and acted on it rationally, with historical erudition and political astuteness. But to judge by Bailyn's account of Hutchinson's career after some soldiers he nominally governed killed five townspeople...
DISCLOSURE. The best safeguard against promiscuous giving or spending is a "sunshine law" that requires total disclosure of the sources of funds.

In addition, the 1971 law requires periodic reports on contributions, plus supplementary reports 15 and five days before elections...
...fears, While most countries reacted to the news of impending communist revolution disdainfully, Turkey and Portugal were the only NATO nations that viewed matters from the same perspective as the U.S. The United States claimed to be interested in the security of NATO. Yet NATO is ostensibly designed to safeguard freedom and democracy, concepts that didn't jibe with the interests of a totalitarian regime. The coup violated both NATO's humanitarian principles and its strategic military commitments. The defense of its Mediterranean wing certainly wasn't bolstered in 1967, when one fourth of the Greek armed forces was purged...
...Michigan court correct in doubting the possibility of any freely given consent by an inmate? Or have the Iowa judges successfully devised rules that safeguard the volunteer? Either way it is clear that the question of consent is crucial-for both legal and pragmatic reasons. Electric-shock therapy for sex offenders, for instance, is plainly offensive and probably illegal if imposed on anyone who does not want it. On the other hand, there is some preliminary indication that the treatment may work -to the benefit of both the prisoner and society. If the voluntary program is ended, inmates who really...
