This is an engrossing account of Greek Americans—their history, strengths, conflicts, aspirations, and contributions. Blending sociological insight with historical detail, Peter C. and Charles C. Moskos trace the Greek-American experience from the wave of mass immigration in the early 1900s to today. This is the story of immigrants, most of whom worked hard to secure middle-class status. It is also the story of their children and grandchildren, many of whom maintain an attachment to Greek ethnic identity even as they have become one of America’s most successful ethnic groups. As the authors rightly note, the true measure of Greek-Americans is the immigrants themselves who came to America without knowing the language and without education. They raised solid families in the new country and shouldered responsibilities for those in the old. They laid the basis for an enduring Greek-American community. Included in this completely revised edition is an introduction by Michael Dukakis and chapters relating to the early struggles of Greeks in America, the Greek Orthodox Church, success in America, and the survival and expansion of Greek identity despite intermarriage. This work will be of value to scholars of ethnic studies, those interested in Greek culture and communities, and sociologists and historians.

The previously untold success story of how the U.S. Army became the most integrated institution in America, offering crucial insights for race relations in civilian society as well. By emphasizing leadership skills, education, and training, the U.S. Army sidestepped many of the hazards that beset civilian institutions, and its success offers hope for a nation in racially troubled times.

Media relations in peace and humanitarian operations in the post-Cold War era differ n basic ways from the coverage of the military in times past. That is the overarching argument presented in this monograph. We will argue that new forms of military-media relations have occurred in such places as Somalia, Rwanda, Haiti, and Bosnia.
