The Peace Corps was established by executive order in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy
32、 and approved by Congress as a permanent agency within the State Department later that year. The program came about during the Cold War and was designed to oppose the Soviet challenge to Western influence in the widely open Third World area of superpov/er competition. More than 180,000 Americans hav
33、e served in the Peace Corps since its beginning.Purpose & functionThe program officially has three goals. The first is to help the people of interested countries and areas in meeting their needs for trained workers. The second is to help promote a better understanding of Americans on the part of the
34、 peoples served. And the third is to help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans.The Peace Corps works by first announcing its availability to foreign governments. These governments then determine areas in which the organization can be involved. The organization the
35、n matches the requested assignments to its pool of applicants and sends those volunteers with the appropriate skills to the countries that first made the requests.Background & historySince the end of the Second World War, various members of the United States Congress had proposed bills to establish
36、volunteer organizations in the Third World. In 1952 Senator Brien McMahon proposed an army of young Americans to act as bringers ofdemocracy. Privately funded non-religious organizations had been sending volunteers overseas since the 1950s.John F. Kennedy first announced his own idea for such an org
37、anization during the 1960 presidential campaign at a late-night speech at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on October 14. During a later speech in San Francisco, California on November 1, he named this proposed organization the Peace Corps. Critics of the program (including Kennedys opponent,
38、 and future United States president, Richard M. Nixon) claimed the program v/ould be nothing but a place for young people to hide from military service. Others doubted whether college-aged volunteers had the necessary skills. The idea was popular among most college students, however, and Kennedy con
39、tinued to pursue it, asking respected academics such as Max Millikan and Chester Bov/les to help him outline the organization and its goals. During his opening address as president, Kennedy again promised to create the program.Established & approvedOn March 1, 1961, Kennedy signed an Executive Order
40、 which officially started the Peace Corps. Concerned with the growing tide of revolutionary feelings in the Third World, Kennedy saw the Peace Corps as a means of countering the notions of the Ugly American, especially in the emerging nations of postcolonial Africa and Asia.On March 4, Kennedy appoi
41、nted Sargent Shriver to be the programs first director. Shriver was tasked v/ith fleshing out the organization, which he did v/ith the help of Warren W. Wiggins and others. Shriver and his think tank outlined the three major goals of the Peace Corps and decided the number of volunteers they needed t
42、o recruit. The program began recruiting volunteers that following July.Until about 1967, applicants to the Peace Corps had to pass a placement test that tested general knowledge (knowledge ofvarious skills needed for various Peace Corps assignments) and language ability. After an address from Kenned
43、y, who was introduced by Rev. Russell Fuller of Memorial Christian Church, Disciples of Christ, on August 28, 1961, the first group of volunteers left for Ghana and Tanzania. The program was formally approved by Congress on September 22, 1961 and within two years over 7,300 Peace Corps volunteers we
44、re serving in 44 countries. This number v/ould jump to 15,000 in June of 1966, the largest number in the organizations history.Early troubles for the Peace CorpsThough the organization v/as begun with the noblest of intentions, it experienced a big controversy in its very first year of operation. On
45、 October 13, 1961, a postcard v/ritten by a volunteer named Marjorie Michelmore in Nigeria to her boyfriend in the US caused some problems. In it, she described Nigeria as wugly and absolutely primitive in living conditions*. This postcard, hov/ever, never made it out of the country. A student at th
46、e University College at Ibadan found it and made copies to distribute around campus. Nigerian students accused the volunteers of being spies of the US government. Soon the international press picked up the story and this led several people in the US administration to question the future of the progr
47、am as a whole. Nigerian students protested the program, and the American volunteers hid themselves away and eventually began a hunger strike. After several days, the Nigerian students agreed to open a dialogue with the Americans.Independent statusIn July 1971, President Nixon brought the Peace Corps under the umbrella agency, ACTION.
