My Reasons for Delivering Two Plenary Lectures at IUB Congresses (1964 and 1979)

IUBMB LIFE, Issue 4-5 2005
Ephraim Katchalski-Katzir
Some time ago Dr Whelan informed me that there would be a 50th anniversary celebration of IUB's admission into ICSU, and IUBMB Life would publish a special issue to coincide with the IUMB-FEBS Conference in Budapest next July. While checking the past history of IUB's Congresses, Dr Whelan noticed that I was the only person who had ever been asked to deliver two plenary lectures at these Congresses (1964 and 1979). He invited me to contribute my reminiscences concerning these two lectures, and I promised to explain how this had happened. IUBMB Life, 57: 239-242, 2005 [source]


Future Families and Nurses of the Future as Seen in 1948

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING, Issue 6 2008
Sarah E. Abrams
ABSTRACT On the occasion of the 100th anniversary celebration of the Community Service Society (CSS) of New York, Ruth Weaver Hubbard, president of the National Organization for Public Health Nursing, addressed the audience with a talk about "Nursing for Health in Tomorrow's Family." The full text of her speech was printed in the original Public Health Nursing in June 1948. This article presents excerpts of her forecast of the future of the American family and the role of the nurse in helping to achieve health. Predictions from the past provide an unusual historical perspective, one of peering into a future now some 50 years past. The fabric of life in the United States has changed dramatically since 1948, but Hubbard's opinion that nursing is integral to a team approach to helping individuals and communities address their own needs was articulated with profound conviction.

IDEC's History: Important Milestones 1963,1978

JOURNAL OF INTERIOR DESIGN, Issue 2 2010
Buie Harwood M. F. A.
IDEC began to compile its history in 1972, and later had anniversary celebrations at its annual conferences in 1982, 1987, 1992, and 2008. When the first efforts began, members recognized that IDEC had a significant history and that the history was important internally as well as externally to the profession as a whole. Without these early efforts and continuing ones by IDEC members, IDEC would not have its developmental footprint, historical archives, historical identity, or milestone markers charted herein. In essence, its history served as its memory keeper and its foundation for growth. [source]


Social representations of democratic transition: Was the Philippine People Power a non-violent power shift or a military coup?

ASIAN JOURNAL OF SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY, Issue 3 2010
Cristina Jayme MontielArticle first published online: 16 AUG 2010
This research looked at social representations of the 1986 People Power in the Philippines among Filipino civilians and the military. Using mixed qualitative,quantitative methods, the research collected military narratives, ran a survey of civilians and military personnel and reviewed newspaper accounts of People Power anniversary celebrations over 20 years. Civilians saw People Power as a strong and positive power shift, while the military viewed it as an aborted coup led by military officers that was weak and bad. The findings about the social representations of transition are linked to civilian,military social identities after 1986 and illuminate the subjective landscape of State power contests in a new democracy.
