Kennedy Versus Lodge: The 1952 Massachusetts Senate Race by Thomas J. Whalen,

Kennedy Versus Lodge: The 1952 Massachusetts Senate Race by Thomas J. Whalen,
In November 1952, Dwight D. Eisen-hower won the presidential election by a landslide vote. In Massachusetts, however, a relatively unknown and inexperienced Congressman John F. Kennedy narrowly defeated incumbent Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., to become only the third Democrat in the Commonwealth's history elected to the United States Senate. The victory signaled the dawn of a new political era and proved to be an equally decisive moment in determining the future careers of both candidates. In Kennedy versus Lodge, Thomas J. Whalen provides a penetrating analysis of this pivotal campaign and tells the fascinating story of a political duel between two families that spanned nearly half a century. Bringing together a wealth of material, he shows how Kennedy beat Lodge through a combination of fortuitous circumstances and deft use of pioneering electioneering tactics. Whalen details how the candidates' different backgrounds influenced their attitudes toward public service and electoral politics, examines the structure and effectiveness of their campaign organizations, and discusses the intra-party squabbles that each man had to deal with. In addition, he considers how Kennedy's triumph marked the shift from Republican to Democratic dominance in post-war Massachusetts. The author assesses strategies employed by Kennedy that would come into play eight years later in his presidential campaign against Richard M. Nixon, giving special attention to the ways in which he exploited the new medium of television and courted the women's vote. Whalen reveals how Lodge was crippled by conservative Robert Taft Republicans who withheld their support as revenge for his leadership role in Eisen-hower's bid forthe presidential nomination, and he discusses the sensitive issue for both candidates of Senator Joseph McCarthy's proposed involvement in the campaign.



The Lakota Ritual of the Sweat Lodge by Raymond A. Bucko,
The Lakota Ritual of the Sweat Lodge by Raymond A. Bucko,
For centuries, a persistent and important component of Lakota religious life has been the Inipi, the ritual of the sweat lodge. The sweat lodge has changed little in appearance since its first recorded description in the late seventeenth century. The ritual itself consists of songs, prayers, and other actions conducted in a tightly enclosed, dark, and extremely hot environment. Participants who "sweat" together experience moral strengthening, physical healing, and the renewal of social and cultural bonds. Today, the sweat lodge ritual continues to be a vital part of Lakota religion. It has also been open to use, often controversial, by non-Indians. The ritual has recently become popular among Lakotas recovering from alcohol and drug addiction. This study is the first in-depth look at the history and significance of the Lakota sweat lodge. Bringing together data culled from historical sources and fieldwork on Pine Ridge Reservation, Raymond A. Bucko provides a detailed discussion of continuity and changes in the "sweat" ritual over time. He offers convincing explanations for the longevity of the ceremony and its continuing popularity.
