Extractions: Praise for this title Restores the forgotten legacy of a leader for peace. Ralph J. Bunche: Selected Speeches and Writings is the only collection currently available of speeches and writings many unpublished and previously unavailable of one of this century's foremost African-American political and intellectual leaders. Bunche was a pioneer in every sense of the word. The first black American to hold a doctorate in political science, Bunche established the political science department at Howard University and co-founded the National Negro Congress. He served as the first African- American section head in the Office of Strategic Services and later moved to the State Department. He played a major part in the delegation that established the United Nations and, when he retired as Under Secretary General, was the highest- ranking black in that organization. In 1950, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and thus became the first black Nobel laureate. Bunche's thinking and writing was broad, ranging from the political left to the center. Early works flirt with socialist or even Bolshevist ideas, while later works maintained that a flawed American democracy was better than an impending threat of Nazi-influenced fascism. Bunche was one of the first African Americans to do academic work in Africa, forcing him to think through notions of colonialism and class that would influence his work at the United Nations. Although his passion for peace and civil rights never faltered, his relationship with American black movements vascillated from an early embrace of radicalism to a significant distancing during the mid-sixties to a final rapprochement during the last years of his life. A monumental contribution

Extractions: (profiled with the Bass Scholarship Outside of the classroom, we were exposed to a number of scholars, many of them leaders in their respective fields of political science; given an opportunity to make contact with some of the best PhD programs in the country; and prepared for the GRE. In sum, everything in the program was geared towards helping us solidify our goals and making us better prospects for graduate school admission. I would strongly encourage any minority student with even the slightest interest in pursuing a PhD in political science to consider the [Institute]. The introduction to the graduate school environment and the relationships formed are invaluable to a student who is thinking seriously about graduate work in political science.
