This document outlines theories for why the role of the vice president has evolved from being obscure to becoming a powerful position within the White House. It proposes three main theories for this change: 1) Increased demands on modern presidents have led them to give vice presidents expanded roles; 2) Growth of institutional resources for vice presidents has provided them tools to play a greater role; 3) Rise of outsider presidents with little experience has led them to select running mates as partners who can help fill gaps. The document then examines hypotheses within each theory and proposes methods of case studies and data analysis to test these hypotheses.
This document provides an overview of an initiative by the Center for the Study of the Presidency (CSP) to strengthen U.S. communications with Muslim communities. It summarizes a plenary meeting held by CSP in June 2003 that brought together experts to discuss challenges and recommendations. The meeting addressed how to improve understanding between Americans and Muslims through best practices in communications, messaging, and understanding different perspectives. Overall, the document outlines CSP's efforts to enhance U.S. public diplomacy and address rising anti-Americanism through more effective engagement with Muslim audiences worldwide.
Today I am uploading the second presentation I have shown to my students. As I could observe, they were very much interested in the topic of economic diplomacy, especially due to being business- and international employment-oriented. What I can say from this experience is the fact that international students, young, hard-working people coming in a huge majority from developing countries, now very well what they want to get from their higher education - practical knowledge is key. There is, however, also another field they understand very much about and these are global challenges they benefit or suffer from. Here we have had an opportunity to discuss changes in global economy and their impact on regional economic environments. Hope another piece of my teaching material will gain your interest. Thank you in advance for any feedback you'd be willing to share.
Deconstructing the “Arab Spring”: A Constrcutivist AnalysisAbdeslam Badre, PhD
This paper aims to provide an alternative analysis of the Arab Spring revolutions through a constructivist lens. It examines the historical and political contexts that fueled public uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa region. Additionally, it discusses how neighboring powers like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Iran are seeking to influence outcomes and shape the future sociopolitical and geopolitical landscape of the region based on their own political agendas and religious orientations. While the consequences cannot be predicted, the paper argues that regional involvement will play a key role in determining how the situation in the Middle East unfolds.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

2. From Throttlebottom to Angler
• Once there were two brothers: one ran away to sea, the other was elected
Vice-President – and nothing was ever heard from either of them again –
Thomas Marshall (VP to Woodrow Wilson)
• …the most dangerous vice president we’ve probably had in American
history – Joe Biden describing his predecessor
In just a few decades the vice presidency has shifted from obscurity to
centrality, from being an inconsequential position, a “Constitutional
appendage” to being a power center within the White House
What Changed?
2
3. Key Questions
• Why has the vice presidency become a source
of influence?
• Why have presidents been increasingly willing
to follow the advice of the vice president?
Influence, is defined by Paul Light as “an
adviser’s ability to change outcomes from what
they would have been.”
3
4. Overview: Three Theories
There are three approaches, each with several hypotheses, that
may explain the growth in vice presidential influence:
1) Demands of the modern presidency have created incentives
for presidents to give their vice presidents expanded roles
2) The growth of the institutional vice presidency has given the
vice president resources to play a greater role
3) Rise of the outsider presidency has brought people with
little Washington experience to the presidency and they
have selected their running mates as partners who can help
fill these gaps
5. The Modern Presidency
• From Leader to Clerk
• Since FDR, responsibilities and powers of the
president have expanded dramatically
• The following two hypotheses examine the
institutional changes to the presidency that have
created new incentives for presidents to give an
expanded role to their vice presidents
5
6. H1A: When the president is able to select his vice
president, the vice president is more likely to
exercise influence
• In the most early cases, running mates were chosen at the
convention by the party faction that lost the nomination
• Presidents had little incentive to cooperate with the vice
president who was a former rival
• Under FDR, the president obtained control of the selection
process
• Possible Proof: Compare the set of influential VPs with the set
of VPs selected by the party nominee
6
7. H1B: As the demands on the president have
increased, the vice president will have greater
opportunities to exercise influence.
• Since the 1930s, the expectations of presidential involvement
in national and international affairs has expanded dramatically
• Increased demands on the president created incentives for
the president to give the vice president a greater role
• Possible Proof: Compare the set of influential VPs with the
changes in indicators of expansion of presidential
responsibility
7
8. The Institutional Vice Presidency
• In the past 60 years, the vice presidency has acquired several
institutional attributes, including a seat on the NSC and personal
staff
• Since the 1970s, the vice presidency has gained semi-
institutionalized attributes including a West Wing office, regular
meetings with the president, and access to the policy process
• Vice presidents have adopted a set of behaviors and strategies to
maximize their influence
• The following four hypotheses test the importance of the growth of
the institutional vice presidency on vice presidential influence
8
9. H2A: Vice presidents with their own staff are
better able to exercise influence.
• In the 1970s, vice presidents were granted substantial
personal staff
• Staff allowed the vice president to develop areas of expertise
and use surrogates for influence
• Possible Proofs:
- Compare the set of influential VPs with VPs who had
substantial staff
- Examine the role of vice presidential staff in cases of vice
presidential influence
9
10. H2B: Vice presidents with an office in the West
Wing are better able to exercise influence.
• Nothing propinks like propinquity
• Since Mondale, vice presidents have had offices in the West
Wing, giving the vice president a presence in the heart of the
informal aspects of the policy process
• Possible Proofs:
- Compare the set of influential VPs with the VPs who had
West Wing offices
- Examine cases of vice presidential influence to determine if
and how the VP’s West Wing office played a role
10
11. H2C: Vice presidents with regular access to the
President, and with access to White House meetings
and paper-flow for themselves and their staff are
better able to exercise influence.
• As a condition of accepting the vice presidency, Walter Mondale
insisted on access to White House meetings and paper-flow for
himself and his staff
• This has continued with vice presidents since and allows the vice
president to follow the policy process and be present or
represented at meetings
• Possible Proofs:
– Compare the set of influential VPs with the VPs who had access to White
House meetings and paper-flow
– Examine specific cases of vice presidential influence to determine if access
to the president, meetings, and paper-flow was a factor
11
12. H2D: Vice presidents who foster allies on the
president’s staff, exercise “hidden hand”
influence, and avoid publicity for their policy
preferences are better able to exercise influence.
• After consulting his predecessors, vice president Mondale
adopted a set of strategies for influence
• Mondale’s successors have continued to employ these
strategies
• Possible Proof: Study specific cases of vice presidential
influence to determine what means the vice president used to
advance his preferred policy positions
12
13. Insider/Outsider
• Since the mid-1970s, voters have shown a preference
for “outsider” presidential candidates with little or
no Washington experience
• Outsider candidates are more likely to view the vice
president as a governing partner
• The following three hypotheses examine the
relationship between outsider presidents and
influential vice presidents
13
14. H3A: Outsider presidents are more likely to
select running mates for personal and political
compatibility, increasing the likelihood that the
President will include the VP as a top advisor.
• At the heart of vice presidential influence is the president’s
willingness to listen
• Outsider presidents are more likely to consider their vice
president as a partner
• Possible Proofs:
– Examine pre-selection relationships between candidates and their
running mates and
– Examine the vice presidential selection process
14
15. H3B: Outsider presidents are more likely to be
inexperienced in areas such as national security affairs
and not have strong national security teams, thus
creating opportunities for vice presidential influence.
• Presidents inexperienced in foreign policy may have difficulty establishing
an organizational framework that serves their needs
• This situation can create policy vacuums that an experienced VP can fill
• Possible Proofs:
– Examine a president’s previous relationships with his national security team
– Compare the set of influential vice presidents with the presidents who had
strong and weak national security teams
– Study specific cases of vice presidential influence to determine if they
occurred in areas where the president’s national security team had difficulty
formulating policy
15
16. H3C: Outsider presidents are more likely to seek
their vice presidents’ input in the appointments
process, which increases the VP’s opportunities for
influence.
• Outsider presidents are more likely to include the vice president in
the transition process
• By helping to select appointees, the vice president can establish
lines of confidence throughout the bureaucracy that can help the
vice president achieve influence through the bureaucracy
• Possible Proofs:
– Compare the set of influential vice presidents with the vice
presidential role in the transition and appointment process
– Examine specific cases of vice presidential influence to determine if
lines of confidence in the bureaucracy was a factor
16
17. Methodology I: Case Studies
• Case studies on vice presidents who were:
– Influential
– Active but not influential
– Uninfluential (lost access to the policy process)
• These overviews will discuss the VP’s role in the NSC system,
access to the president and White House, and general
discussions of vice presidential influence
• There will also be focused case studies on specific instances of
vice presidential influence to tease out the elements
contributing to vice presidential influence
17
18. Methodology II: Process Tracing
• Causation is not correlation
• Process tracing (according to Bennet and George):
“…attempts to identify the intervening causal process - the
causal chain and causal mechanism - between an
independent variable (or variables) and the outcome of
the dependent variable.”
• The object is to identify how the presence or
absence of specific elements played a role in cases of
successful and failed vice presidential influence in
order to test the hypotheses
