Workshop I: Automated
Methods for Analyzing Language
This workshop will introduce participants in a
practical way to the automated coding of textual material for research on
language use. The first part of the workshop will explore methodological and
conceptual issues raised by automated coding methods. The second part of the
workshop will focus explicitly on the use of Profiler Plus in automated coding
as a concrete example of how computers can be used for textual analysis.
Participants will be introduced to how coding schemes are constructed and will
participate in a group effort to construct and use coding rules for research on
the use of language.

Workshop II: Adivce for Junior
Scholars on the Publishing Process
This workshop is designed to help junior scholars
succeed in getting their work selected for academic journals, and to know what
to expect after they have been accepted and need to prepare their manuscript
for publication. Coordinated by current editors of Political Psychology, the
official journal of the International Society of Political Psychology, junior
scholars will receive pointers on submission guidelines and appropriate formats
to use, how to balance intricacies of cross-discipline research, which factors
influence editors in their decision-making and how to prepare their work for
appearing in Political Psychology or other, similar academic journals. The
workshop will feature short presentations by scholars who have been successful
in getting their work published.
Coordinators: The Editors of Political Psychology
Monday, July 15, 9:00 a.m. –

Workshop III: The Nuclear Mystique: Dialogue on
Global Security
We are in a state of global emergency both
physically and psychologically. The issues most threatening to global survival
are barely on anyone’s radar screen. Moreover, the threat is compounded by our
massive denial, ignorance, and psychic numbing, rendering us unable to take
effective action. As Robert Jay Lifton has stated, weapons of mass destruction
are beyond psychology, and alter our relationship to life and death. An
international meeting of political psychologists is perhaps the best place for
a serious dialogue and brain-storming session about this issue. Basic ideas,
concepts, and analysis and open session for dialogue will be presented.)

Tour of Third Reich Sites
The once elegant Wilhelm Strasse
and the surrounding streets gained a terrifying reputation during the Third
Reich. On Wilhelm Platz, propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels transformed an
18th century palace into the sinister Propaganda Ministry. Off the same square,
Hitler built his intimidating New Reichschancellery and close by, the bunker
where he committed suicide. On Wilhelm Strasse itself, Goering built the
monumental Air Ministry while Himmler's SS and the Gestapo headquarters turned
Prinz-Albrecht-Strasse into the most feared address in the Third Reich. Sixty
years later, some of the street names have changed but one cannot escape the
Nazi past: we examine how this past is being looked at today and finish the
tour above the exact position of Hitler's bunker, exploding the myths
surrounding Hitler's fate during the last days of the war. Tour departs from
the hotel lobby at 2:00 p.m. Please be
in the lobby no later than 1:45 p.m.

Tour of Third Reich Sites
The once elegant Wilhelm Strasse
and the surrounding streets gained a terrifying reputation during the Third
Reich. On Wilhelm Platz, propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels transformed an
18th century palace into the sinister Propaganda Ministry. Off the same square,
Hitler built his intimidating New Reichschancellery. On Wilhelm Strasse itself,
Goering built the monumental Air Ministry while Himmler's SS and the Gestapo
headquarters turned Prinz-Albrecht-Strasse into the most feared address in the
Third Reich. Tour departs from the hotel lobby at 2:00 p.m. Please be in the lobby no later than 1:45

12.3 Salon:
Haifa: The Voices of Jews and Arabs 1948-2001
This salon is a video
presentation (2001) of interviews in Haifa with Jews and Arabs about Haifa
1948-2001. Haifa has the image, in the Jewish-Israeli collective memory, of
being a town where Jews and Arabs lived happily together before 1948 (Goren,
2000) and that some of that relationship still prevails until today. Still,
this positive Israeli image of the Jewish-Arab relationship does not account
for the fact that most of the Arab population left Haifa prior or right after
it was taken over by the Hagana (the Jewish army prior to the State of Israel)
in April 1948. The collective Jewish memory also does not acknowledge the fact
that most of these refugees never returned. Only about 3000 Arabs stayed behind
in 1948. The Jewish memory also does not take notice of the fact that the
remaining Arabs were forced into a special zone in Wadi Nisnas from where they
were allowed to move out only with permits. Dan Bar-On was part of this
collective memory and is now on his own journey to try and clarify the
discrepancies between these facts and the positive image.

Jewish Life in Berlin Tour
The destruction of Berlin's
thriving Jewish community by the Nazis left a great void in the cultural and
commercial life of the city. The heart of this community was around
Oranienburger Stratte and the so-called "Scheunenviertel". On this
tour you will visit the site of the first synagogue in Berlin and the
"women's protest" memorial nearby. Discover where the Old Cemetery
was and see the remaining Jewish Boy's School, founded by Moses Mendelssohn in
the 1780s. Find out where the Old People's was and how it was turned by the
Nazis into their main detention centre. You will also see where Otto Weidt's
workshop was, and the guide will explain how he helped save the lives of many
members of the community. The tour ends at the magnificent New Synagogue, a
symbol of the regeneration of Jewish life in Berlin today. Tour departs from
the hotel lobby at 2:00 p.m. Please be
in the lobby no later than 1:45 p.m.

Hitler’s Brides, a TV documentary film by director Cate Haste, examines the role women played in Nazi Germany. Based on interviews with women from all walks of life, who were mostly in their teens at the time, Hitler’s Brides shows how effective Nazis were at gaining young women’s allegiance. It examines how Nazi politics affected women in the Racial State, including racial ‘education’ and sterilization policies, and how women were willingly politicized in Nazi values through the Girls’ Hitler youth – the BDM. Following the screening of the film, there will be a time for questions.
