406 Theories and Militias. The purpose of this paper is to examine the roles played by both Relative Deprivation Theory and Resource Mobilization Theory in the formation of the militias that were crucial in winning the American Revolution. Early psychological theories about revolution derived from frustration-aggression theory, that is, the theory put forth by Freud that all aggression derives from frustration. In A Model of Egotistical Relative Deprivation, Fay Crosby presents the following model for relative deprivation theory: "The person who lacks X must 1) see that someone else (Other) possesses X; 2) want X; 3) feel entitled to X; 4) think it feasible to obtain X; and, 5) lack a sense of personal responsibility for not having X."

680 Describe the decisive constraints on military change between 1660-1789. This paper will describe the decisive constraints on military change between 1660-1789.By the end and beginning of the 16th and 17th century, Ottoman state and society mixed features from the Classical Age and conversion to recent world systemic changes. On the one hand, the base of state-society relations and the structure of Ottoman rule at the center and in the provinces shifted as a series of minor modifications brought about certain rest of control and a certain running that allowed movement in and out of otherwise closed units. At the same time, the state sticked to the ethics of centralization while redefining the ways it might be accomplished. On the other hand, the legacy of the sixteenth century all over Eurasia resulted in the crisis of the seventeenth century.

20452 The Rum War: The Coast Guard and Change During Prohibition This 8-page graduate paper considers the role of the Coast Guard in enforcement of the Prohibition Enforcement. This paper also considers the mission of the Coast Guard during the Billard years. Changes to the Coast Guards and effects of those changes during this period are discussed. This paper concludes that the Prohibition years were a watershed period for the Coast Guard - with the Billard years being especially important - because these years made the Coast Guard into a professional and national service. These years also saw the largest growth of the Coast Guard, with new ships and technologies added to the service in order to cope with the rumrunner ships.

20453 A Brief Look at Changes in Coast Guard History This 3-page graduate paper looks at historical changes to the US Coast Guard from the birth of the service to current times. This paper stresses the changes that have had an impact on the Coast Guard and Nation and this paper concludes that changes to Coast Guard have often been reactions to changes to the Nation. For example, concerns about illegal smuggling or illegal immigration, for example, have meant that the Coast Guard?s mission and fleet were altered to include the control of these areas of concern. The Coast Guard has changed dramatically throughout its history, from a modest vision of a few protective boats to one of the largest services and American departments. Perhaps as a result of so many changes, and perhaps as a result of being created out of several services, the Coast Guard today is a complex service with many duties and responsibilities.

20468 The United States Coast Guard and the War Period This 7-page graduate paper is a research paper about the US Coast Guard prior to and during World War I, noting the service?s role in the war, their mission during the war, and their fight for survival prior to World War II. This paper argues that the Coast Guard faced a number of water-shed events before World War I, during the Great War, and throughout the interwar period. Just before the war, the Coast Guard was made an official service rather than the informal collection of cutters it has been preciously. Once mobilized in 1917, the service acted quickly to provide convoy service and to assist the Navy by supplying men and ships. The service?s experiences in the war made the service garner the respect and admiration of the United States and foreign admirals, although the service acted in tandem with the Navy. In contrast, the Coast Guard gained more attention and visibility during the Rum Wars, when the service was responsible for enforcing Prohibition by stopping illegal liquor smuggling. This period proved a watershed event for the Coast Guard, as the service faced new criticism over its handling of illegal imports. At the same time, the Rum Wars allowed the Coast Guard to gain more trained personnel and equipment, factors which would contribute to the Coast Guard?s increased presence during World War II.
