This report updates a previous report with findings on the economic activity supported by total Army spending in each of the 435 congressional districts in fiscal years 2014 through 2017. To estimate this activity, researchers used district-level input-output (I/O) models and a national-level I/O model known as IMPLAN. Each district-level model is used to estimate the direct, indirect, and induced effects of national-level Army spending that affect a particular district. In this context, direct effects are the total Army spending within a district; indirect and induced effects represent the local economic activity that supports both the direct spending and the in-district demand generated from Army spending outside the district. Indirect effects capture interindustry linkages, while induced effects capture the effects of household incomes. For each congressional district, this report provides the following estimates: direct Army spending (including military and government civilian payroll and retiree pay for Regular Army, Army National Guard, and U.S. Army Reserve, plus acquisition and services contracts) all Army employment (including military and government civilian personnel for Regular Army, Army National Guard, and U.S. Army Reserve, including soldiers not on active duty) additional economic output generated by direct Army spending additional jobs created by direct Army spending Army-driven economic output (direct plus indirect and induced spending) all Army employment plus estimated additional jobs resulting from total Army direct spending and indirect effects. Results are aggregated by state and the economic activity associated with Army spending is separated by component where applicable.

In 1917, Fort Ord was established in the tiny subdivision of Seaside, California. Over the course of the 20th century, it held great national and military importance-a major launching point for World War II operations, the first base in the military to undergo complete integration, the West Coast's most important training base for draftees in the Vietnam War, a site of important civil rights movements-until its closure in the 1990's. Alongside it, the city of Seaside took form. Racial Beachhead offers the story of this city, shaped over the decades by military policies of racial

Aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles, tandis que les grands ateliers cartographiques européens s’affairent à l’édition de luxueuses séries d’atlas universels pour leur clientèle la plus fortunée, c’est au plus près du terrain que les ingénieurs militaires façonnent patiemment leur propre conception de l’atlas militaire manuscrit, à bien des égards plus intimiste et secrète. Si leurs ouvrages se définissent toujours comme des « livres reliés de cartes et plans », ils adoptent des formes infiniment diverses, allant du simple « ramas » de documents utile à l’exercice de la profession à la « visite de places » commandée par l’administration militaire, en passant par le somptueux recueil dédicatoire. Dessinés à la plume et souvent rehaussés de lavis, ces recueils, conçus à des fins stratégiques, dressent le portrait inédit et toujours confondant de précision de provinces, païs, villes fortifiées et ouvrages militaires tour à tour défendus ou convoités par l’État monarchique. Cet ouvrage abondamment illustré, qui réunit une étude historique et un catalogue raisonné complété d’index de lieux et d’auteurs, présente pour la première fois, planche par planche, l’un des gisements cartographiques d’Ancien Régime les plus exceptionnels qui soient conservés dans les fonds d’Île-de-France. Instrument de recherche inestimable pour l’histoire des villes, de l’architecture et des territoires, il éclaire l’ensemble des processus de réformation orchestrés en France entre les règnes d’Henri IV et de Louis XV, tout en faisant la part belle aux pays européens et aux États du Levant.

La 4e de couverture indique : "Le fort de Krokodilô, fouillé en 1996 et 1997 par la Mission française du désert Oriental, est situé sur la route reliant Coptos, dans la Vallée du Nil, à Myos Hormos, sur la mer Rouge. Son dépotoir, formé sous les règnes de Trajan et Hadrien, a livré plus de 800 ostraca, dont 189 sont publiés dans ce volume. Après un premier volume des Ostraca de Krokodilô consacré à la correspondance militaire, le présent ouvrage s'intéresse à la correspondance privée que s'échangeaient les habitants de Krokodilô et des forts voisins, Phoinikôn et Persou. Les lettres ont été rédigées par trois personnalités très différentes : Philoklès, le vivandier et proxénète, joue un rôle central dans l'approvisionnement des habitants des fortins du désert, et dans le commerce de prostituées, dont il s'est fait une spécialité); Ischyras, le carrier, est une connaissance de Philoklès, ses lettres regorgent de manifestations d'amitié tout en livrant quelques confidences peu amènes, indices de rapports humains parfois brutaux ; Apollôs enfin, en plus d'être semble-t-il un soldat, assure le rôle de scribe au sein d'un groupe dont les préoccupations concernent presque uniquement le ravitaillement. La richesse de ce corpus permet de reconstituer la vie des petites sociétés peuplant les garnisons du désert au début du iie s. apr. J.-C., et de mettre en lumière la vigueur des réseaux qui liaient les quelque 200 personnages qui apparaissent dans les ostraca. On y découvre l'importance des liens de solidarité dans un milieu hostile et la place essentielle des civils, notamment des femmes, dans la vie des fortins." La 4e de couverture indique : "The fort of Krokodilo on the road from Coptos to Myos Hormos was excavated in 1996-97 by the French mission in the Eastern desert. Its rubbish-dump was formed during the reigns of Trajan and Hadrian, and produced over 800 ostraca, 189 of which are published in this volume. While the first volume of Ostraca de Krokodilô concerns military correspondence, this second volume contains private letters exchanged between the inhabitants of Krokodilo and the neighbouring forts, Phoinikon and Persou. The letters were written by three very different characters: Philokles, a green-grocer and pimp, plays a central role in supplying vegetables to the inhabitants of the desert forts and also organises the prostitution; Ischyras, a quarry-man, is an acquaintance of Philokles and his letters are full of declarations of friendship, but also contain some harsh remarks which demonstrate the brutality of certain human relationships; Apollos is probably a soldier, but also functions as a letter-writer for a group of people who are mostly concerned with their provisions of food. This rich corpus gives us a glimpse of the daily life in a society of some 200 people who lived in the desert garrisons at the beginning of the 2nd century AD, and who appear in the ostraca. We are able to witness the importance of solidarity in this hostile environment and the important role of civilians, not least the women, in the life around the forts."
