Item Amman: Jordanian Identity after Modenrism(2020-05) Salameh, Petra K.The Municipality of Greater Amman sought from the early 1950s to frame Amman as the Modern City of the Middle East. To reach such a goal, they instated five urban planning commissions over the course of fifty years. The base of all five plans was laid out in 1955 by Max Lock and Gerald King, two British planners, to produce urban plans and guidelines on how the city should expand, build new structures, and a site plan for Lock’s Civic Center. The following master plans reorganized the same components of the civic center while ignoring the neighboring demographic. The establishment of institutional buildings in the middle of a dense, low-income neighborhood has left the site sterile and unused. The relocation of the Friday market, from its original site to a smaller and less accessible site, was the most recent addition to the site. My thesis proposes the placement of the National Library, the last unbuilt component from the 1955 master plan, on the same site as the Friday Market.Item The First and the Second(2020-05) Ho, Kah KinIt is often thought that the establishment of America's first national parties only happened during the presidency of Thomas Jefferson or Andrew Jackson. However, in examining the timeline of their developments, and by paying particular attention to the time period between 1796 and 1800, I find evidence that suggest otherwise. As such, by using the presidency of John Adams as a fulcrum, I seek to demonstrate that by the time our third president was inaugurated, political parties was already sufficiently established.
