Description

Tabitha Petran wrote an article charging Georgetown University with a part in government sponsored fascism. Her subject is the university's role in training occupational police and administrators. In her account, an American campus helped prepare the men who would run occupied or allied territory for Washington.

The charge ties a respected university to the machinery of empire. Training programs look neutral on a catalog page, and Petran asks readers to see the politics inside them. Her article preserves a sharp left critique of how American power staffed itself after the war.
