Sherman"Rowman & Littlefield InternationaliPrejudice influences people's thoughts and behaviors in many ways; it can lead people to underestimate others' credibility, to read anger or hysteria into their words, or to expect knowledge and truth to `sound' a certain way-or to come from a certain type of person. These biases and mistakes can have a big effect on everything from an institutional culture to an individual's self-understanding. These kinds of intellectual harms are known as epistemic injustice. Most people are opposed to unfair prejudices (at least in principle), and no one wants to make avoidable mistakes. But research in the social sciences reveals a disturbing truth: even people who intend to be fair-minded and unprejudiced are influenced by unconscious biases and stereotypes. We may sincerely want to be epistemically just, but we frequently fail, and simply thinking harder about it will not fix the problem. The essays collected in this volume draw from cutting-edge social science research and detailed case studies, to suggest how we can better tackle our unconscious reactions and institutional biases, to help ameliorate epistemic injustice.USD120 9781438451954�N_�T�[Ye Ritual And Religion In The Xunzi"State University Of New York Press2014GBP57.25 9780691183503���l��WŖ�~)R���$�fNM| ��Z�u�N�SN ��N�Sl�|;NIN?e�l�v��__Reading Machiavelli: Scandalous Books, Suspect Engagements, And The Virtue Of Populist PoliticsJohn P. MccormickQTo what extent was machiavelli a "machiavellian"? was he an amoral adviser of tyranny or a stalwart partisan of liberty? a neutral technician of power politics or a devout italian patriot? a reviver of pagan virtue or initiator of modern nihilism? reading machiavelli answers these questions through original interpretations of niccol machiavelli's three major political works--the prince, discourses, and florentine histories--and demonstrates that a radically democratic populism seeded the florentine's scandalous writings. John mccormick challenges the misguided understandings of machiavelli set forth by prominent thinkers, including jean-jacques rousseau and representatives of the straussian and cambridge schools. Mccormick emphasizes the fundamental, often unacknowledged elements of a vibrant machiavellian politics: the utility of vigorous class conflict between elites and common citizens for virtuous democratic republics, the necessity of political and economic equality for genuine civic liberty, and the indispensability of religious tropes for the exercise of effective popular judgment.USD29.95 9780801444449Џ�R-N�v�w�v�ўyO�yf[�N*N�f[�y�v�[݋*Contemporary Philosophy And Social ScienceAn Interdisciplinary DialogueMichiru Nagatsu�How should we theorize about the social world? how can we integrate theories, models and approaches from seemingly incompatible disciplines? does theory affect social reality? this state-of-the-art collection addresses contemporary methodological questions and interdisciplinary developments in the philosophy of social science.

GBP120 9780521791786 QReh;����~��;NINcWS-The Cambridge Companion To Logical EmpiricismAlan Richardson�If there is a movement or school that epitomizes analytic philosophy in the middle of the twentieth century, it is logical empiricism. Logical empiricists created a scientifically and technically informed philosophy of science, established mathematical logic as a topic in and tool for philosophy, and initiated the project of formal semantics. Accounts of analytic philosophy written in the middle of the twentieth century gave logical empiricism a central place in the project. The second wave of interpretative accounts was constructed to show how philosophy should progress, or had progressed, beyond logical empiricism. The essays survey the formative stages of logical empiricism in central Europe and its acculturation in North America; discusses its main topics, and achievements and failures, in different areas of philosophy of science; and assesses its influence on philosophy, past, present, and future.USD96 9780199916429eP�^��S�SHealth A HistoryAdamson, PeterGThis book brings together contributions by historians of philosophy and medicine to trace the concept of health from ancient greece and china, through the islamic world, down to modern thinkers like descartes and freud.

Who among us has not longed to be forgiven? Who has not struggled to forgive? Charles Griswold has written the first comprehensive philosophical book on forgiveness in both its interpersonal and political contexts, as well as its relation to reconciliation. Having examined the place of forgiveness in ancient philosophy and in modern thought, he discusses what forgiveness is, what conditions the parties to it must meet, its relation to revenge and hatred, when it is permissible and whether it is obligatory, and why it is a virtue. Griswold argues that forgiveness (unlike apology) is inappropriate in politics, and analyzes the nature and limits of political apology with reference to historical examples (including Truth and Reconciliation Commissions).

However, his writings and thought are challenging and difficult. The oxford handbook of levinas contains essays that aim to clarify and engage levinas and his writings in a number of ways. Some focus on central themes of his work, others on the ways in which he read and was influenced by figures from plato, hobbes, descartes, and kant to blanchot, husserl, heidegger, and derrida.

It covers foundational feminist issues in phenomenology, feminist phenomenological methods, and applied phenomenological work in politics, ethics, and on the body.

In power and influence, richard corry investigates the assumptions that are built into the reductive method of explanation-the method whereby we study the components of a complex system in relative isolation and use the information so gained to explain or predict the behaviour of the complex whole. He investigates the metaphysical presuppositions built into the reductive method, seeking to ascertain what the world must be like in order that the method could work. Corry argues that the method assumes the existence of causal powers that manifest causal influence-a relatively unrecognised ontological category, of which forces are a paradigm example. The success of the reductive method, therefore, is an argument for the existence of such causal influences. The book goes on to show that adding causal influence to our ontology gives us the resources to solve some traditional problems in the metaphysics of causal powers, laws of nature, causation, emergence, and possibly even normative ethics. 9780674984585�N'`�N 9780367098070>yO�yf[�Tf[Philosophy Of Social ScienceAlexander Rosenberg2Philosophy of social science provides a tightly argued yet accessible introduction to the philosophical foundations of the human sciences, including economics, anthropology, sociology, political science, psychology, history, and the disciplines emerging at the intersections of these subjects with biology. 9781108422895 �[(u;NIN0�[‰'`�T�~��< 'Pragmatism, Objectivity, And Experience Steven LevineLIn this book steven levine explores the relation between objectivity and experience from a pragmatic point of view. Like many new pragmatists he aims to rehabilitate objectivity in the wake of richard rorty's rejection of the concept. But he challenges the idea, put forward by pragmatists like robert brandom, that objectivity is best rehabilitated in communicative-theoretic terms - namely, in terms that can be cashed out by capacities that agents gain through linguistic communication. Levine proposes instead that objectivity is best understood in experiential-theoretic terms. He explains how, in order to meet the aims of the new pragmatists, we need to do more than see objectivity as a norm of rationality embedded in our social-linguistic practices; we also need to see it as emergent from our experiential interaction with the world. 9780199609222z6e��Tf[Ɖ҉TaxationPhilosophical PerspectivesO'neill, Martin; Orr, ShepleyIThis is the first book to give a collective treatment of philosophical issues relating to tax.

By offering a relational understanding of the nature of individuals centred on the role played by emotions, spinoza offers not only historical roots for contemporary debates but also broadens the current discussion. At the same time, reading spinoza as a theorist of relational autonomy underscores the consistency of his overall metaphysical, ethical and political project, which has been clouded by the standard rationalist interpretation of his works.GBP80 9780815372110�lb\01r�V�efWN�s�[�v,g(���ef[N�Tf[�v�~�^*Tagore, Einstein And The Nature Of Reality%Literary And Philosophical DimensionsEdited By Partha GhoseRoutledge India{This volume consists of a selection of scholarly essays from literature, philosophy and history on the conception of reality as understood by rabindranath tagore and albert einstein. The nature of reality has been a long-debated issue among scientists and philosophers. Tagore (1861-1941) met einstein (1879-1955) at the latter's house in kaputh, germany on 14 july 1930 and had a long conversation on this issue. This conversation has been widely quoted and discussed by scientists, philosophers and scholars from the literary world. The important question that tagore and einstein discussed was whether the world is a unity dependent on humanity, or the world is a reality independent of the human factor. Einstein believed that reality is independent of the mind and the human factor. On the other hand, tagore adopted the opposite view. Nevertheless, both einstein and tagore claimed to be realists - their conceptions of reality were obviously fundamentally different. Where does the difference lie? can it be harmonized at a deeper level? this volume brings together for the first time a gamut of views on this subject from eminent scholars. 9780823227723,T� ListeningNancy, Jean-LucFordham University Press�A lyrical meditation on listening, this work examines sound in relation to the human body.

While few dispute the centrality of these figures and the questions they raised, the modern era also included essential contributions from women-like margaret cavendish, elisabeth of bohemia, mary wollstonecraft, and emilie du chatelet-as well as important non-white thinkers, such as anton wilhelm amo, julien raimond, and ottobah cugoano.

With contributions from twelve scholars working in the fields of literary studies, visual studies, anthropology, cultural studies, and digital culture, this book takes a multidisciplinary approach to "aesthetic imaginaries," which tests the conceptual potential from an array of perspectives and methodologies. It prob< es into the continuous creation and re-creation of figures for the future that invariably nod to their pasts, whether with a spirit of respect, disgust, hope, or play. It is particularly in the intersections between ideas and formations of "shared realities" and what ranjan ghosh has called "entangled figurations" that the full and intricate promise of the aesthetic imaginary as analytic and conceptual prism comes into its own. As the chapters in this collection demonstrate, "knots" of various aesthetic imaginaries disseminate and manifest variously across place and time, to weave and interweave again, and to offer themselves in each instance as contours-so-far of cultural and aesthetic histories.USD90 9780415574419b_ � Nf[��W@xMetaphysics: The Basics Rea, Michael!Metaphysics: the basics is a concise and engaging introduction to the philosophical study of the world and universe in which we live.

Instead, it is our exposure to the unthinkable or the impossible  to thought s own limits. An experience of the unthinkable is possible in our encounter with the uniqueness of death, the singularity of being, and of the self and the other. This 'thinking of finitude' also has political implications, as it provides us with a way to talk about, and evaluate, absolute strangeness and, by implication, the absolute stranger or foreigner. 9781138235014 �Tf[�~xQ��S�N�Tf[ ,{7HrPhilosophic ClassicsAncient Philosophy Forrest BairdGBP145 9781786604590p�T�W^�Tf[��f[�y�T荇eS�vƉ҉RTowards A Philosophy Of The City: Interdisciplinary And Transcultural Perspectives Jacobs, KeithPhilosophy begins in the city states of classical greece.

After the perceived failure of clouds in 423 and its subsequent, unperformed revision, aristophanes, this book argues, returned in 414 with birds, a continuation and deepening of his critique found in clouds. Peisetaerus or "persuader of his comrades," the protagonist of birds, though an old man, is clearly a student of socrates' phrontisterion. Unlike socrates, however, he is political and ambitious and he understands the whole of human nature, both rational and irrational. Peisetaerus employs the various deconstructive techniques of socrates and his allies (which is summed up on the comic sage in the image of "father-beating") to overturn not just human society, but, with the help of his new allies, the divine and musical birds, the cosmos. After his new gods and bird city, cloudcuckooland, are actually established, however, the hero re-introduces the "old" ways - justice, moderation, and obedience to law - but now under his personal authority, and thereby becomes "the highest of the gods.USD115 9782503527536?��~�h�~�T�N�vW��N��yf[N�Tf[�vĞё�e�NAvicenna And His Legacy&A Golden Age Of Science And PhilosophyY.

This is all the more challenging in that deleuze-guattari almost never use the term freedom, preferring instead, the concept of the refrain. The essays collected in the volume show that freedom has been understood in a remarkably narrow sense and that in fact freedom operates as th< e refrain in every realm of thought and creation. The motivating approach in these essays is deleuze-guattari s emphasis on the irreality of media and capitalistic sign regimes, which they perceive to have taken over even the practices of philosophy, the arts, and science.

But it also developed over its long history a sense in which philosophers might acknowledge some other particular philosopher or group of philosophers as an authority and offer to that authority explicit intellectual allegiance. This is most obvious in the development after the classical period of the philosophical 'schools' with agreed founders and, most importantly, canonical founding texts. There also developed a tradition of commentary, interpretation, and discussion of texts which itself became a mode of philosophical debate. As time went on, the weight of a growing tradition of reading and appealing to a certain corpus of foundational texts began to shape how later antiquity viewed its philosophical past and also how philosophical debate and inquiry was conducted. In this book leading scholars explore aspects of these important developments.USD125 9781844651306�S��v`�u;NINAncient Scepticism.Thorsrud, HaraldAcumen Publishing Ltd*Although sceptical attitudes can be traced back to various Presocratic philosophers, Scepticism became a school of philosophy principally in the Hellenistic period and as a philosophical tradition has been influential ever since. Harald Thorsrud provides a comprehensive introduction to the central themes, arguments and general concerns of ancient Scepticism from its beginnings with Pyrrho of Elis (c.360 - c.270 BC) to the writings of Sextus Empiricus in the second century AD. This book explores the differences between individual sceptics and examines the traditional separation of the Academic sceptics from Pyrrhonism. The prolonged controversy that pitted the Academic sceptics against the Stoics is charted as well as how ancient Scepticism differed from its more modern manifestations.This book shows students why ancient Scepticism remains philosophically interesting, and for those who continue their study, it prepares them to more actively engage with the complexities of the fragmentary evidence and gives them a general survey of current scholarship. 9780199213849 ў


Tome I covers the reception of Kierkegaard in Northern and Western Europe. The articles on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland can be said to trace Kierkegaard's influence in its more or less native Nordic Protestant context. Since the authors in these countries (with the exception of Finland) were not dependent on translations or other intermediaries, this represents the earliest tradition of Kierkegaard reception. The early German translations of his works opened the door for the next phase of the reception which expanded beyond the borders of the Nordic countries. The articles in the section on Western Europe trace his influence in Great Britain, the Netherlands and Flanders, Germany and Austria, and France. 9780268034115��^<\(��v�x?b��[/Uir;NIN�vcb-Pa,Leibniz S Mill:A Challenge To Materialism-PaA Challenge To Materialism LandesmanUniversity Of Notre Dame Press2011 9781138205314bS�h�v�_upThe Rousseauian Mind+Edited By Christopher J Kelly And Eve Grace-Jean- jacques rousseau (1712-1778) is a major figure in western philosophy and is one of the most widely read and studied political philosophers of all time.

Francesca ferrando affords particular focus to philosophical posthumanism, defined as a philosophy of mediation which addresses the meaning of humanity not in separation, but in relation to technology and ecology.

Corporate malfeasance, disregard of the environment, and blatant ignorance of the instigators of disasters large and small also continue to register high human costs. In trying to address this, theorists have attempted to elucidate a global ethics that would prescribe courses of actions even when individual and direct causal agency cannot be identified. Following in this tradition, eddy m. Souffrant explores the concept of a global development ethics, taking in topics including famine, immigration, capitalism, race, and technology. He demonstrates that defining the constituents of a global development ethics depends on a successful analysis of the theoretical and practical structures that cause such global and seemingly intractable conditions. He challenges existing conceptions of global justice and argues for a theory of global ethics that relies on our commonality, such that enables us to welcome the `other', thereby fuelling our recognition of the inequalities that motivate prospective development projects. 978113873107321N�~�v&OtN�Q�Nbeu�����KQ�R^X�~(�0Ethics And Military Strategy In The 21st CenturyBeyond ClausewitzGeorge R.

Patrick Johnson2The University Of North Carolina Press (unc Press)SDrawn from the life narratives of more than seventy african american queer women who were born, raised, and continue to reside in the american south, this book powerfully reveals the way these women experience and express racial, sexual, gender, and class identities--all linked by a place where such identities have generally placed them on the margins of society. Using methods of oral history and performance ethnography, e. Patrick johnson's work vividly enriches the historical record of racialized sexual minorities in the south and brings to light the realities of the region's thriving black lesbian communities. At once transcendent and grounded in place and time, these narratives raise important questions about queer identity formation, community building, and power relations as they are negotiated within the context of southern history. 9780190919986 �����b��[u;m�Hard QuestionsFacing The Problems Of Life Kekes, John�In this book, john kekes discusses the hard questions we all must face in the course of our lives.

Beginning with the queering of love in greek antiquity, it looks at how sexual love has been sung about, fictionalized and theorized as a cornerstone of the formation of western culture. From the courtly love of twelfth-century troubadours and the rise of affective individualism in the eighteenth century, to the way the novel helped catalyze and crystallize the hopes and contradictions of love and marriage, these are decisive episodes in the history of romantic love. Lastly, the book deals with how sociologists and feminist theorists have made sense of the liberalization of sexuality over the last fifty years, especially given the post-romantic pragmatism of commercialized dating practices. 9780190923877u}T&Ot�v{k�NThe Death Of The Ethic Of Life Basl, John�Many subscribe to an ethic of life, an ethical perspective on which all living things are deserving of some level of moral concern.

Twelve leading scholars reconstruct the account of evil latent in aristotle's metaphysics, biology, psychology, ethics, and politics, and detect aristotelian patterns of thought that operate at certain landmark moments in the history of philosophy from ancient thought to modern day debates. 9781138320611�^(uL�:NR�g-N�v&Ot�����[E��^(u1Understanding Ethics In Applied Behavior AnalysisPractical Applications"Ann B.

The 18th century is often said to have involved a radical transformation in the concept of art: from the understanding that art is tool for some practical purpose, to the modern belief that it holds a distinctive and intrinsic value. By exploring the ground between these notions of art's function, karl axelsson reveals how scholars of culture made taste, morals, and a politically stable society an integral part of their claims about the experience of nature and art. Focusing on the writings advanced by two of the most prolific men of letters in the eighteenth century, joseph addison (1672 1719) and the third earl of shaftesbury (1671 1713) it contests the conviction that modern aesthetic autonomy was a reorientation in criticism and philosophy originally prompted by these two key figures in the history of aesthetics. 9780955308789Fanged Noumena�1987-2007t^W�\OƖFanged NoumenaCollected Writings 1987-2007 Land, Nick UrbanomicYA dizzying trip through the mind(s) of the provocative and influential thinker Nick Land. 9781350056367 ў 9781844655618�aN�Sa�[#Synaesthesia And The Ancient Senses�Like us, the ancient Greeks and Romans came to know and understand the world through their senses. Yet sensory experience has rarely been considered in the study of antiquity and, when the senses are examined, sight is regularly privileged. Synaesthesia and the Ancient Senses presents a radical reappraisal of antiquity s textures, flavours, aromas, sounds and sights. It offers both a fresh look at society in the ancient world and an opportunity to deepen the reading of classical literature. Synaesthesia and the Ancient Senses will appeal to readers in classical society and literature, philosophy, and social and cultural history. All Greek and Latin is translated, and technical matters are explained for the non-specialist. The introduction sets the ancient senses within the history of aesthetics and the subsequent essays explore the senses throughout the classical period and on to the modern reception of classical literature. 9780804759915͑�e�S�s�f[�eg�z�/g�S ��Tf[�Tz�/g�[���v�f[�y�X�Rediscovering AestheticsGTransdisciplinary Voices from Art History, Philosophy, and Art Practice�Bishop, Claire; Costello, Diarmuid; Crowther, Paul A.; Danto, Arthur C.; Davey, Nicholas; Duve, Thierry de; Elkins, James; Halsall, Francis; Holly, Michael Ann; Jansen, Julia�Rediscovering Aesthetics brings together prominent international voices from art history, philosophy and artistic practice who reflect on current notions, functions, and applications of aesthetics in their distinctive fields.GBP49 9781108470582 �N�[sQ�|-N�v�m�`�NAm1Affectionate Communication In Close Relationships Kory Floyd�Few communication behaviors are more consequential to the development and maintenance of close relationships than the expression of affection. Indeed, people often use affectionate gestures to initiate or accelerate relationship development. In contrast, the absence of affection in established relationships frequently coincides with relational deterioration. This text explores the scientific research on affection exchange that has emerged from the disciplines of communication, social and clinical psychology, family studies, psychophysiology, sociology, nursing, and behavioral health. Specific points of focus include the individual and relational benefits - including health benefits - of affectionate behavior, the significant detriments associated with lacking sufficient affection, and the risks of expressing affection. It also discusses the primary social and cultural influences on affection exchange, critiques principal theories and measurement models, and offers suggestions for future empirical research.USD110 9780674980556�`a`�~��eSN���w�v�`a9h�n?The Emotional Mind:the Affective Roots Of Culture And Cognition]For 200 million years before humans developed a capacity to reason, the emotional centers of the brain were hard at work.

Years later, the revolution was unrecognizable as rebel opposition forces had merged into three major groups: jabhat al-nusra, ahrar al sham, and the islamic state in iraq and syria (isis). Why did these three groups rapidly increase in size and military strength while others simply disappeared? what is it about their organizational structure and their islamist ideology that helped group manage their fighters so successfully? with these questions at the forefront, this book examines the internal organization of armed groups and, in particular, their human resources. Analyzing the growth of these groups through the prism of a labor market theory, this book shows that extreme islamist groups were able to attract fighters away from more moderate groups because they had better internal organization, took better care of fighters both physically and monetarily, experienced less internal corruption, and effectively used their islamist ideology to control recruits. 9780190682620'Y�-N�v�i�_����Y7h'`�v‰�pConcepts In The Brain(The View From Cross-linguistic DiversityDavid Kemmerer For most native speakers of english, the meanings of ordinary words like "blue," "cup," "stumble," and "carve" seem quite natural and self-evident. It turns out, however, that they are far from universal, as shown by recent research in the discipline known as semantic typology. To be sure, the roughly 6,500 languages around the world do have many similarities in the sorts of concepts they encode. But they also vary greatly in numerous ways, such as how they partition particular conceptual domains, how they map those domains onto syntactic categories, which distinctions they force speakers to habitually attend to, and how deeply they weave certain notions into the fabric of their grammar. Although these insights from semantic typology have had a major impact on the field of psycholinguistics, they have been mostly neglected by the branch of cognitive neuroscience that studies how concepts are represented, organized, and processed in our brains. In concepts in the brain, david kemmerer exposes this oversight and demonstrates its significance. 9781845191573^�V�v�K`Narcissism of Empire�Loss, Rage & Revenge in the Works of Thomas De Quincey, Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle, Rudyard Kipling & Isak DinesenSussex Academic Press�Widely read in the age of British imperialism and still popular today, the five writers studied here have allowed millions to participate vicariously in the imperial project. Yet all of these writers, so instrumental in popularising the imperial agenda of power and dominance, bore deep emotional scars and as adults bolstered their fragile psychic states through fantasies of empire. While soldiers and politicians may know to bury or at least camouflage their fears and desires, inner fantasy is the necessary ingredient of literature, and popular fiction often offers the opportunity to probe the mind of an age. The connection between childhood loss and the desire for imperial escape, power and dominance is illuminated by De Quincey s mad screeds against the Chinese as both terrifyingly powerful and laughably weak, while Stevenson s romances, though written from an invalid s bed, are credited with 'selling' the idea of empire as manly adventure. Conan Doyle s tales of a Britain menaced at home by imperial blowback are models of Great Power paranoia that resonate today, and<  Kipling s stories of imperial Britain grow increasingly grandiose as childhood s psychic wounds are re-opened. Finally, Dinesen portrays plantation life in British East Africa as a gentle romance in which displaced African "squatters" serve as loyal and adoring retainers, providing the aristocratic aura for which the author yearns.2006 9780128171226�R:g�yf[ۏU\Advances In Motivation ScienceElliot, AndrewAcademic Press�Advances in motivation science, volume six, the latest release in elsevier's serial on the topic of motivation science, presents chapters on a variety of topics, including motivation, emotion, cognition, and communication: definitions and notes toward a grand theory, motivation in the service of allostasis: the role of anterior mid cingulate, climatic ignition of motivation, my journey to the attribution fields, inspiration as optimal motivation: from ancient theory to contemporary science, the development of self-determination theory: the emergence of sdt's six mini theories and their validation, and more.

Particular focus is given to how second and third generation survivors have explored and confronted the psychic reverberations of holocaust trauma in cinema. This book focuses on how film is particularly suited to depict holocaust experiences with vividness and immediacy. The similarity of moving images and sound to our dream experience allows access to unconscious processing. Film has the potential to reveal the vast panorama of holocaust history as well as its intrapsychic reverberations. Yet despite the recent prominence of holocaust films, documentaries, and tv series as well as scholarly books and memoirs, these works lack a psychoanalytic optic that elucidates themes such as the repetition compulsion, survival guilt, disturbances in identity, and disruption of mourning that are underlying leitmotifs. Cinematic reflections on the legacy of the holocaust will be of great interest to psychoanalysts and therapists as well as to scholars in trauma, film, and jewish studies. 9780128146279�[�bKb�Q��i�_S �ċ0O �T�g�TNO�z�[�N'`�vYtThe Handbook Of Antagonism[Conceptualizations, Assessment, Consequences, And Treatment Of The Low End Of AgreeablenessMiller, Joshua�The handbook of antagonism: conceptualizations, assessment, consequences, and treatment of the low end of agreeableness looks at the theoretical and empirical underpinnings of antagonism, highlighting the consequences of the trait, its role in a number of problem behaviors and psychiatric disorders, and how it exerts itself on externalizing behaviors.

A friend of jacques lacan's, dolto believed that we are all humanized through language, and that the words we use carry unconscious traces of our early histories of love, suffering and desire. Suggesting that infants unconsciously symbolize and that a continuous circulation of unconscious affects - the transference - prevails in all language-based relations, her findings challenge assumptions about autism, autobiography, linguistics, literacy, pedagogy and therapy. Dolto's own corpus - a rich archive blending the personal and professional - demonstrates this, with echoes between dolto's constructs about the child and her own challenging childhood. This fascinating book will not only introduce the work of francoise dolto to many readers, but will be a valuable resource for all psychoanalytic researchers and theorists interested in childhood, language and identity. 9780415886499�SU\ ��o�R�T�\N�dl�Yё�e�vb�gHThe Affect Theory Of Silvan Tomkins For Psychoanalysis And PsychotherapyRecasting The EssentialsE.

Dickinson (montclair State University, Usa)yFor as long as we have been researching human memory, psychologists have been investigating how people remember and forget. This research has formed the basis of many processes in society, and is regularly drawn upon in our legal systems. Historically, we have relied upon eyewitness memory to help judge responsibility and adjudicate truth, but memory is malleable, prone to error, and susceptible to bias. Even confident eyewitnesses make mistakes, and even accurate witnesses sometimes find their testimony subjected to harsh scrutiny. Emerging from this environment, the cognitive interview (ci) became a means of assisting cooperative witnesses with recalling more information without sacrificing accuracy. First used by police interviewing adult witnesses, it is now used with many populations in many contexts, including public health, accident reconstruction, and the interrogation of terror suspects. Evidence-based investigative interviewing reviews the application of cognitive research to investigative interviewing, revealing how principles of cognition, memory and social dynamics may increase the accuracy of eyewitness testimony. 9781583917480�Z�Y0�z�NN'`+R�t��04N�^�^(uN�VSO�]\OEnvy, Competition and Gender,Theory, Clinical Applications and Group Work1Edited by Leyla Navaro and Sharan L.

In this outstanding introduction, lawrence shapiro sets out the central themes and debates surrounding embodied cognition, explaining and assessing the work of many of the key figures in the field, including lawrence barsalou, daniel casasanto, andy clark, alva noe, and michael spivey. Beginning with an outline of the theoretical and methodological commitments of standard cognitive science, shapiro then examines philosophical and empirical arguments surrounding the traditional perspective, setting the stage for a detailed examination of the embodied alternative. He introduces topics such as dynamical systems theory, ecological psychology, robotics, and connectionism, before addressing core issues in philosophy of mind such as mental representation and extended cognition.

Grounded in the basic principle of negative feedback control, his original account outlines a new fundamental kind of mental content called 'valent representation'. Upon this foundation, cochrane constructs new models for emotions, pains and pleasures, moods, expressive behaviours, evaluative reasoning, personality traits and long-term character commitments. These various states are presented as increasingly sophisticated layers of regulative control, which together underpin the architecture of the mind as a whole. Clearly structured and containing numerous diagrams and examples to illustrate the discussion, this study draws on the latest research from fields including philosophy, psychology and neuroscience, and will appeal to readers interested in the philosophy and cognitive science of emotion. 9781107032132�`aN�S�N�� OSO�S�N�vƉ҉Emotion And Narrative-Perspectives In Autobiographical StorytellingTilmann Habermas�Emotions have a life beyond the immediate eliciting situation, as they tend to be shared with others by putting the experience in narrative form. Narrating emotions helps us to express, understand, and share them: the way we tell stories influences how others react to our emotions, and impacts how we cope with emotions ourselves. In emotion and narrative, habermas introduces the forms of oral narratives of personal experiences, and highlights a narrative's capacity to integrate various personal and temporal perspectives. Via theoretical proposals richly illustrated with oral narratives from clinical and non-clinical samples, he demonstrates how the form and variety of perspectives represented in stories strongly, yet unnoticeably, influence the emotional reactions of listeners. For instance, narrators defend themselves against negativity and undesired views of themselves by excluding perspectives from narratives.USD130 9780128121092hQtS�_tf[:�� T0aƋb_`�TL��RThe Psychology Of GlobalizationIdentity, Ideology, And ActionReese, GerhardThe psychology of globalization: identity, ideology, and action underpins the necessity to focus on the psychological dimensions of globalization.

These provide frameworks for addressing four specific topics: (a) environmental challenges, (b) consumer culture, (c) international security, and (d) transnational migration and intra-national cultural diversification. Arguing that individual social representation and behavior are altered by globalizing processes while they simultaneously contribute to these processes, the authors explore economic, political and cultural dimensions. 9780128142912 �NNarcissism, Machiavellianism, And Psychopathy In Everyday Life Lyons, Minna�The dark triad of personality: narcissism, machiavellianism, and psychopathy in everyday life summarizes the latest research on how these personality traits (psychopathology, narcissism, machiavellianism) are defined and displayed, while also exploring the impact they have on individuals and society, the relationship between clinical conditions and personality traits, and their adaptivity.

In buddhisms: an introduction, professor john s. Strong provides an overview of the buddhist tradition in all its different forms around the world. Beginning at the modern day temples of lumbini, where the buddha was born, strong takes us through the life of the buddha and a study of buddhist doctrine, revealing how buddhism has changed just as it has stayed the same. Finally, strong examines the nature of buddhist community life and its development today in the very different environments of thailand, japan, and tibet. Enriched by the author s own insights gathered over forty years, buddhisms never loses sight of the personal experience amidst the wide-scope of its subject.USD30 9788177421149<mahapratisara-mahavidyarajni�O'Y�vFz��yr ��l/g�vO'YsY�s�satapitaka�|R636 �_Mahapratisara-Mahavidyarajni: The Great Mulet, Great Queen Of Spells (Satapitaka Series No.636)Hidas GAditya PrakashaniThis volume provides the first critical edition and complete Western translation of an influential apotropaic scripture of Mahayana Vajrayana Buddhism, The Great Amulet, Great Queen of Spells.

And yet, in spite of this widespread enthusiasm, the academic world has been slow to study this development. This volume rectifies this gap in current scholarship by serving as an interdisciplinary overview of the relationship of the paranormal to the artefacts of mass media (e.G. Novels, comic books, and films) as well as the cultural practices they inspire. After an introduction analyzing the paranormal's relationship to religion and entertainment, the book presents essays exploring its spiritual significance in a postmodern society; its (post)modern representation in literature and film; and its embodiment in a number of contemporary cultural practices. Contributors from a number of discplines and cultural contexts address issues such as the shamanistic aspects of batman and lesbianism in vampire mythology.

This study begins two hundred years earlier, however, looking at roots of theological anti-Semitism and how Jews and Judaism were constructed, positively and negatively, in the biblical interpretation of German Protestant theology. Following the two main streams of German theology, the salvation-historical and the Enlightenment-oriented traditions, it examines leading exegetes from the 1750s to the 1950s and explores how theology legitimises or delegitimises oppression of Jews, in part through still-prevailing paradigms. This is the first comprehensive analysis of its kind, and the result of the analysis of the interplay between biblical exegesis and attitudes to Jews and Judaism is a fascinating and often frightening portrait of theology as a servant of power.EUR197 9780367028701 ^�2m�[YeN�N{|�[hQ%Religion And Human Security In Africa,Edited By Ezra Chitando And Joram TarusariraThis book looks in detail at the intersection of religion and human security in a variety of african contexts.

One of the most important instruments in this process was certainly the visualisation. Images of the gods transformed the divine world into a visually experienceable entity, comprehensible even without a theoretical or theological superstructure. For the illiterates, images were together with oral traditions and rituals the only possibility to approach the idea of the divine; for the intellectuals, images of the gods could be allegorically transcended symbols to reflect upon. Based on the art historical and textual evidence, this volume offers a fresh view on the historical, literary, and artistic significance of divine images as powerful visual media of religious and intellectual communication.EUR167 9780190650872 �S�Nr�R�v�ĖW�SOHeroic Bodies In Ancient IsraelDoak, Brian R.

George, Karen Boydell Press�Gildas' De excidio Britonum" is a rare surviving contemporary source for the period which saw the beginning of the transformation of post-Roman Britain into Anglo-Saxon England. However, although the De excidio has received much scholarly attention over the last forty years, the value of the text as a primary source for this fascinating if obscure period of British history has been limited by our lack of knowledge concerning its historical and cultural context. In this new study the author challenges the assumption that the British Church was isolated from its Continental counterpart by Germanic settlement in Britain and seeks to establish a theological context for the De excidio within the framework of doctrinal controversy in the early Continental Church. The vexed question of the place of Pelagianism in the early British Church is re-investigated and a case is put forward for a radical new interpretation of Gildas' own theological stance.USD99 9780521889049 QReh�r*YYe�S ,{7wS The Cambridge History Of Judaism Karp Jonathan�This seventh volume of the cambridge history of judaism provides an authoritative and detailed overview of early modern jewish history, from 1500 to 1815.

These Gospel narratives of the Passion - the arrest, trial, scourging, and execution of Jesus - cast the Jews as those responsible, directly and indirectly, for the death of their Messiah and the son of God. Cohen tracks the image of the Jew as the murderer of the Messiah and God from its origins to its most recent expressions. A great deal has been written about Christian anti-Semitism, its roots, and its horrific consequences in world history. This is the first book, however to focus on the powerful myth that has driven so much murderous hatred.

B. HamptonrEarly german romanticism sought to respond to a comprehensive sense of spiritual crisis that characterised the late eighteenth century. The study demonstrates how the romantics sought to bring together the new post-kantian idealist philosophy with the inheritance of the realist platonic-christian tradition. With idealism they continued to champion the individual, while from platonism they took the notion that all reality, including the self, participated in absolute being. This insight was expressed, not in the language of theology or philosophy, but through aesthetics, which recognised the potentiality of all creation, including artistic creation, to disclose the divine. In explicating the religious vision of romanticism, this study offers a new historical appreciation of the movement, and furthermore demonstrates its importance for our understanding of religion today. 9781108426886< Ξ�]�Z�v�SYe�e;NIN��,g0W�S��VЏ�RSalafism In Lebanon!Local And Transnational Movements Pall ZoltanThe past two decades have seen an increasing association between lebanese salafism and violence, with less attention being paid to salafis who focus on peaceful proselytization.

Although critical of heidegger and his definition of finitude as  being-towards-death , this book does not revert to the ontological idea of infinity secured in the sacred image of immortality. But it also does not want to give up on infinity altogether; the infinite is transposed, so it can become a necessary moment of the finite life. A theological framework for the new elaboration of the concept of finitude is crucial; but instead of following the lutheran formula, agata bielik-robson turns to the sources of judaism. Taking inspiration from the jewish idea of torat hayim, the principle of finite life, which found the best expression in the biblical sentence: love strong as death; love emerges as the alternative marker of finitude, allowing to us redefine it in an affirmative way. 9780198792550�s=N[r%mKb�QThe Oxford Handbook Of MaryMaunder, Chris$This handbook offers an interdisciplinary guide to marian studies, including chapters on textual, literary, and media analysis; theology; church history; art history; studies on devotion in a variety of forms; cultural history; folk tradition; gender analysis; apparitions and apocalypticism. 9780195333114�2m�v[OYe�_ �pS�^Ye�_NpS�^!�KQYe�_�{�w�S�S&Buddhists, Hindus and Sikhs in AmericaA Short HistoryGurinder Singh Mann�This book explores the challenges that Asian immigrants face when their religion - and consequently culture - is 'remade in the USA'.

In their quest to re-estab����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������lish a "true" - rational, ethical and humanist - form of East Asian Buddhism, the Critical Buddhists undertook a radical deconstruction of historical and contemporary East Asian Buddhism, particularly Zen. While their controversial work has received some attention in English-language scholarship, this is the first book-length treatment of Critical Buddhism as both a philosophical and religious movement, where the lines between scholarship and practice blur. Providing a critical and constructive analysis of Critical Buddhism, particularly the epistemological categories of critica and topica, this book examines contemporary theories of knowledge and ethics in order to situate Critical Buddhism within modern Japanese and Buddhist thought as well as in relation to current trends in contemporary Western thought. 9780812220193GY�Y�v@��m�-NN�~Zfg�_�VS��S�NT�v^yf[N�[��Wonderful BloodBTheology And Practice In Late Medieval Northern Germany And BeyondCaroline Walker Bynum#The quiet market town of wilsnack in northeastern germany is unfamiliar to most english-speakers and even to many modern germans. Yet in the fifteenth century it was a european pilgrimage site surpassed in importance only by rome and santiago de compostela. The goal of pilgrimage was three miraculous hosts, supposedly discovered in the charred remains of the village church several days after it had been torched by a marauding knight in august 1383. Although the church had been burned and the spot soaked with rain, the hosts were found intact and dry, with a drop of christ's blood at the center of each. In wonderful blood, caroline walker bynum studies the saving power attributed to christ's blood at north german cult sites such as wilsnack, the theological controversy such sites generated, and the hundreds of devotional paintings, poems, and prayers dedicated to christ's wounds, scourging, and bloody crucifixion. She argues that christ's blood as both object and symbol was central to late medieval art, literature, pious practice, and theology.GBP18.99 9781843836131/T:yb` Y�ASNN�~T��V/T:yU_HRevelation Restored: The Apocalypse In Later Seventeenth-Century EnglandWarren Johnston:Revelation Restored is a study of apocalyptic thought in the later seventeenth century in England. It explores an under-examined aspect of early modern British history: despite the prominence of millenarian beliefs in historians' explanations of the early modern English church and state up to 1660, little has been said about these convictions in the years following the Restoration. The examination of applications of prophetic language and interpretation to explain the events in England from 1660 to 1700 illustrates their continued capacity to comprehend ecclesiastical and political developments. The book demonstrates that, far from having disappeared from the intellectual landscape, apocalyptic ideas still held the potential to animate opinions in the mainstream of political debate in the later seventeenth century. 9780367025120hQt9ei��9e �я�N�eg�v�[Ye0>yON�eSGlobal Reformations<Transforming Early Modern Religions, Societies, And CulturesEdited By Nicholas Terpstra�This edited volume offers a sustained, comparative, and interdisciplinary exploration of religious transformations in the early modern world.

Metaphorical representations of the moon's goddess also seem to undergo similar changes, each new century reinventing her in its own image. For hesiod, she was a distant figure in the celestial pantheon, to keats she was an intimate muse; selene's recurring role in music, literature, and song is a powerful testament to our continued fascination with her myth.

A. Jones+Founded in 1415, the double monastery of Syon Abbey was the only English example of the order established by the fourteenth-century mystic St Bridget of Sweden. After its dispersal at the Dissolution, the community survived in exile and was briefly restored during the reign of Mary I; but with the accession of Elizabeth I, some of the nuns and brothers once again sought refuge on the Continent, first in the Netherlands and later in Lisbon. This volume of essays traces the fortunes of Syon Abbey and the Bridgettine order between 1400 and 1700, examining the various ways in which reading and writing shaped its identity and defined its experience, and exploring the interconnections between late medieval and post-Reformation monastic history and the rapidly evolving world of communication, learning, and books. They extend our understanding of religious culture and institutions on the eve of the Reformation and the impulses that inspired initiatives for early modern Catholic renewal, and also illuminate the spread of literacy and the gradual and uneven transition from manuscript to print between the fourteenth and the seventeenth centuries. In the process, the volume engages with larger questions about the origins and consequences of religious, intellectual and cultural change in late medieval and early modern England. E. A.

Focusing on ibn al-qayyim's voluminous - yet so far understudied - work on anthropomorphism, al-sawa'iq al-mursala, ovadia explores his modus operandi in his attack on four fundamental rationalistic convictions, while demonstrating ibn al-qayyim's systemization of the taymiyyan theological doctrine and theoretical discourse. Contextualizing al-sawa'iq with relevant writings of thinkers who preceded ibn al-qayyim, ovadia unfolds his employment of kalamic terminology and argumentations; thus, his rationalized-traditionalistic authoring of a theological manifesto directed against his contemporary ash'arite elite of mamluk damascus.EUR99 9780199546633#WSymeon�v�e^yf[�vO�_fN,The Epistles of St Symeon the New TheologianTurner, H.

Earlier, scholars who worked with old testament/hebrew bible studies mostly could leave the samaritan material to experts in that area of research, and scholars studying the samaritan material needed only sporadically to engage in biblical studies.

This book takes an important next st< ep: moving beyond the  religious turn and establishing a  theological turn , nathan guy argues that john locke ought to be viewed as a christian political philosopher whose political theory was firmly rooted in the moderating latitudinarian theology of the seventeenth-century. Nestled between the secular political philosopher and the christian public theologian stands locke, the christian political philosopher, whose arguments not only self-consciously depend upon christian assumptions, but also offer a decidedly christian theory of government. Finding locke s god identifies three theological pillars crucial to locke s political theory: (1) a biblical depiction of god, (2) the law of nature rooted in a doctrine of creation and (3) acceptance of divine revelation in scripture. As a result, locke s political philosophy brings forth theologically-rich aims, while seeking to counter or disarm threats such as atheism, hyper-calvinism, and religious enthusiasm. 9781442276864�N2m�v�[Ye �l�e;NIN�T�� T?e�l;The Politics Of Religion, Nationalism, And Identity In Asia Jeff Kingston5This comprehensive book provides a comparative analysis of religious nationalism in contemporary, globalized asia.

In contrast to evaluations of jewish and early christian apocalyptic texts as "literature of the oppressed" or literature of resistance against empire, keddie demonstrates that scribes produced apocalyptic texts to advance ideologies aimed at self-legitimation. By revealing that their opponents constituted an exploitative class, scribes generated apocalyptic ideologies that situated them in the same exploited class as their constituents. Through careful historical and ideological criticism of the psalms of solomon, parables of enoch, testament of moses, and q source, keddie identifies an internally diverse tradition of apocalyptic class rhetoric in late second temple judaism.EUR121 97890043815064� ���NS_�N�[YeKb�Q(�efN)7Handbook Of Conspiracy Theory And Contemporary Religion1Asbjorn Dyrendal; David G.

Beginning with these historical roots, Sophie Gilliat-Ray traces the major points of encounter between Muslims and the British in subsequent centuries, and explores Muslim migration to Britain in recent times. Drawing upon sociology, anthropology, politics, and geography, this comprehensive survey provides an informed understanding of the daily lives of British Muslims. It portrays the dynamic of institutions such as families, mosques and religious leadership, and analyses their social and political significance in today's Britain.

They did so using attorneys (proctors), advocates and other "men of law" who actuallyconducted that litigation in the courts of church and crown. However, although lawyers were as crucial to the economic vitality of the nunneries as the patrons who endowed them, their role in protecting, augmenting or depleting monastic assets has never been fully investigated. This book aims to address the gap. Using records from the courts of the common law, chancery, and a variety of ecclesiastical venues, it examines the working relationships withoutwhich cloistered nuns could not have lived in fully enclosed but self-sustainingc communities. In the first part it looks at the six mendicant and bridgettine houses established in england, and relates the effectiveness and resilience of their cloistered spirituality to the rise of legal professionalism in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. It then presents cases from ecclesiastical and royal courts which illustrate the work of legal professionals on behalf of their clients. 9781108474078$\��kLN�e�T^�V�(WYeO�S-N�g�^YeO�TWl�Eusebius And Empire:Constructing Church And Rome In The Ecclesiastical HistoryJames Corke-webster�Eusebius' ecclesiastical history, written in the early fourth century, continues to serve as our primary gateway to a crucial three hundred year period: the rise of early christianity under the roman empire. In this volume, james corke-webster undertakes the first systematic study considering the history in the light of its fourth-century circumstances as well as its author's personal history, intellectual commitments, and literary abilities. He argues that the ecclesiastical history is not simply an attempt to record the past history of christianity, but a sophisticated mission statement that uses events and individuals from that past to mould a new vision of christianity tailored to eusebius' fourth-century context.

This book offers an historical survey of how dignity has been understood and explores the concept in the judaeo-christian tradition.World-renowned contributors examine the roots of human dignity in classical greece and rome and the scriptures, as well as in the work of theologians, such as st thomas aquinas and st john paul ii. Further chapters consider dignity within renaissance art and sacred music. The volume shows that dignity is also a contemporary issue by analysing situations where the traditional understanding has been challenged by philosophical and policy developments. To this end, further essays look at the role of dignity in discussions about transhumanism, religious freedom, robotics and medicine.Grounded in the principal christian traditions of catholicism, orthodoxy, anglicanism, and protestantism, this book offers an interdisciplinary and cross-period approach to a timely topic. 9780742562769�r*YYe0�WcwYe�T O�epQYe-N�v^y�y;NIN��[~b�~N'`EMysticism In Judaism, Christianity, And Islam: Searching For Oneness.

Kvanvig�Most cultures have myths of origin. The Babylonians were the first to combine blocks of traditions about primeval time into primeval histories where humans had a central role. In the first millennium there were different versions that influenced the concepts of primeval history within Jewish religion, both in the Bible and in the parallel Enochic tradition. Atrahasis and the traditions of primeval dynasties had crucial impact on Genesis; the traditions of the primeval apkallus as cosmic guardians were lying behind the Enochic Watcher Story. The book offers a comprehensive analytic comparison between the images of primeval time in these three traditions.

Focusing on the depiction of the gift, kinship and community, the book maintains that social and sexual systems play a key role in vernacular hagiography.Such systems, along with the desires they produce and control, are, it is argued, central to hagiography's religious functions, particularly its role as a vehicle of community formation. In attempting to think beyond the limits of human relationships, saints' lives nonetheless create an environment in which queer desires and modes of connection become possible, suggesting that, in this case at least, the orthodox nurtures the queer. 9781108424974-NN�~�e*X�v���~�N�v^yN�Q�sQ�|͑�~'Gods And Humans In Medieval ScandinaviaRetying The BondsWellendorf JonasgThe coming of christianity to northern europe resulted in profound cultural changes.

King focuses on speech-in-character's stable criterion that attributed speech should be appropriate to the characterization of the speaker. Here, speech-in-character helps to inform which voice in the dialogue speaks which lines, and the general goals of diatribe help shape how an "appropriate" understanding of the script is best interpreted. King's analyses of speech-in-character, diatribe, and romans, therefore, make independent contributions while simultaneously working together to advance scholarship on a much debated passage in one of history's most important texts.EUR116 9780826499912 �[Ye�T5uq_ޏ�~���(Continuum Companion to Religion and FilmBlizek, William7The definitive guide to the study of film and religion. 9781536158328�[YeYe��:Ɖ҉0Yef[V{euNcbEReligious Education: Perspectives, Teaching Strategies And ChallengesRichard CoudertNova Science Publishers�Religious education: perspectives, teaching strategies and challenges attempts to conceptualize the depth and complexity of religious education through michael polanyi's notions of personal knowledge and the tacit dimension of knowledge.

Anna Sapir Abulafia’s balanced yet humane account offers a new perspective on Christian-Jewish relations by analysing the theological, socio-economic and political services Jews were required to render to medieval Christendom. The nature of Jewish service varied greatly as Christian rulers struggled to reconcile the desire to profit from the presence of Jewish men and women in their lands with conflicting theological notions about Judaism. Jews meanwhile had to deal with the many competing authorities and interests in the localities in which they lived; their continued presence hinged on a fine balance between theology and pragmatism.The book examines the impact of the Crusades on Christian-Jewish relations and analyses how anti-Jewish libels were used to define relations. Making adept use of both Latin and Hebrew sources, Abulafia draws on liturgical and exegetical material, and narrative, polemical and legal sources, to give a vivid and accurate sense of how Christians interacted with Jews and Jews with Christians.GBP27.99 978140580161418N�~��V��[Ye�T?eV{1714-1815Eighteenth Century BritainReligion And Politics 1714-1815 Yates, NigelBy 1714 britain was still reeling from the major religious upheavals of the previous two centuries.

Stiver T&T Clark�Paul ricoeur (1913-2005) has been heralded as one of the most notable philosophers of the twentieth century. Like a stone skipping across the philosophical pond, he would write a major work in one field, then move on to another. As a consequence, he is one of the most inter-disciplinary philosophers whose work not only brings together such areas as existentialism, phenomenology, hermeneutics, structuralism, psychoanalysis, metaphor, narrative, and political ethics, it bridges the gulf between continental and anglo-american philosophy. Despite the diversity one could identify continuing threads throughout all of his work that make him a major representative of hermeneutical philosophy, developing it much further in a critical direction. One of the areas to which he contributed greatly, almost in passing, was philosophy of religion, where he made notable contributions in the areas of symbol and metaphor as well as epistemology. Ricoeur's work has been appropriated in theology but often in an indirect way.

Efron�In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, as german jews struggled for legal emancipation and social acceptance, they also embarked on a program of cultural renewal, two key dimensions of which were distancing themselves from their fellow ashkenazim in poland and giving a special place to the sephardim of medieval spain. Where they saw ashk< enazic jewry as insular and backward, a result of christian persecution, they depicted the sephardim as worldly, morally and intellectually superior, and beautiful, products of the tolerant muslim environment in which they lived. In this elegantly written book, john efron looks in depth at the special allure sephardic aesthetics held for german jewry. Efron examines how german jews idealized the sound of sephardic hebrew and the sephardim's physical and moral beauty, and shows how the allure of the sephardic found expression in neo-moorish synagogue architecture, historical novels, and romanticized depictions of sephardic history. He argues that the shapers of german-jewish culture imagined medieval iberian jewry as an exemplary jewish community, bound by tradition yet fully at home in the dominant culture of muslim spain.USD31.95 9781138494282 sQ�N�SU\�vsQ.�`�`�[Key Thinkers On DevelopmentEdited By David Simon|Since its publication in 2006 as fifty key thinkers on development, this invaluable reference has established itself as the leading biographical handbook in its field, providing a concise and accessible introduction to the lives and key contributions of development thinkers from across the ideological and disciplinary spectrum.

Kate kenny draws on the stories of whistleblowers to explain why this is, and what must be done to protect those who have the courage to expose the truth. Despite their substantial contribution to society, whistleblowers are considered martyrs more than heroes.

The contributors to this book employ their contemporary and long-term anthropological fieldwork with Indigenous Australians to construct a rich account of Indigenous practices and beliefs, and to engage with questions relating to the frequent experience of death within the context of unprecedented change and premature mortality.



Drawing on extensive empirical material, this volume addresses questions of inequality with specific reference to mortality, thus contributing to the anthropology of Indigenous Australia, whilst attending to its theoretical, methodological and political concerns. 9789027200693�]^�N�e�Q�Q�N�vyrW^̑i`��\?Q�z�vYe��aƋb_`iGrowing Up On The Trobriand Islands In Papua New Guinea. Childhood And Educational Ideologies In Tauwema.Senft, Barbara And Gunter SenftThis volume deals with the children's socialization on the trobriands. After a survey of ethnographic studies on childhood, the book zooms in on indigenous ideas of conception and birth-giving, the children's early development, their integration into playgroups, their games and their education within their `own little community' until they reach the age of seven years. During this time children enjoy much autonomy and independence. Attempts of parental education are confined to a minimum. However, parents use subtle means to raise their children. Educational ideologies are manifest in narratives and in speeches addressed to children. They provide guidelines for their integration into the trobrianders' "balanced society" which is characterized by cooperation and competition. It does not allow individual accumulation of wealth - surplus property gained has to be redistributed - but it values the fame acquired by individuals in competitive rituals. Fame is not regarded as threatening the balance of their society.EUR105 9781464812118�baS�bGY�SbN*N�[E\N�[ g�z�N�vyr'Y�W^<Transforming Karachi Into A Livable And Competitive MegacityThe World BankWorld Bank Publications/The karachi city diagnostic attempts to present detailed data on the economy, livability and key urban services of the city.

It explores the specific insights offered by these categories and the ways in which they augment the analysis of power and domination from a queer perspective, whilst also examining the possibilities for political analysis and strategy building provided by theories of hegemony and heteronormativity. Moreover, in addressing these issues the book strives to rethink the understanding of the term "queer", so as to avoid narrowing queer politics to a critique of normative heterosexuality and the rigid gender binary. By looking at the interplay between hegemony and heteronormativity, this groundbreaking volume presents new possibilities of reconceptualizing 'the political' from a queer perspective. 9781138746947}v݋�Qu�NO6eeQOO?b0�y�N�O�[N�~��Q�e!X�Q�Wl��WVernacular RegenerationXLow-income Housing, Private Policing And Urban Transformation In Inner-city JohannesburgAidan MosselsonUrban regeneration is currently taking place in inner-city johannesburg. This book presents an alternative, multi-layered account for reading the process of urban change and renewal. The provision of social and affordable housing and the spread of private security are explored through the lenses of neoliberal urbanism, gentrification, the privatisation of public space and revanchist policing. This book interrogates these concepts and challenges their assumptions based on new qualitative and ethnographic evidence emerging out of johannesburg. Dated concepts in critical urban studies are re-evaluated and the book calls for an alternative, adaptable approach, focusing on how we develop a vocabulary and creative understanding of urban regeneration. This book is an outstanding contribution to theoretical and comparative approaches to understanding cities and processes of urban change. It offers practical insights and experiences which will be of considerable use to practitioners, policy-makers and urban planning students. 9780815362272}v�Nyr(��N�S�pThe Intersections Of Whiteness.Edited By Evangelia Kindinger And Mark Schmitt�Trumpism and the racially implied islamophobia of the "travel ban"; brexit and the yearning for britain s past imperial grandeur; black lives matter; the public backlash against merkel s refugee policies in germany  these seemingly national responses to the changing demographics in a multitude of western nations need to be understood as effects of a global/transnational crisis of whiteness. The intersections of whiteness brings together scholars from diffe< rent disciplines to shed light on these manifestations in the united states, the united kingdom, south africa and germany.

Despite being far outside the continental united states, the island has played a significant role in american politics and policy since the united states acquired puerto rico from spain in 1898. On september 20, 2017, hurricane maria made landfall in puerto rico as a category 4 storm with sustained wind speeds of over 155 miles per hour. At that time, the commonwealth of puerto rico was already in recovery mode following the glancing blow struck by hurricane irma on september 6, 2017, which left 70% of electricity customers without power. Chapter 1 deals with the challenges to recovery in puerto rico and the role of the financial oversight and management board. Even before the 2017 hurricane season, puerto rico s electric power infrastructure was known to be in poor condition, due largely to underinvestment and the perceived poor maintenance practices of the puerto rico electric power authority (prepa).Chapter 2 focuses on the recovery of puerto rico from the hurricanes, and the restoration of power. 9780190496548 N�S/f�s�Y�N%��T>yO�]\ONN Not Just Play-Summer Camp And The Profession Of Social Work Meryl Nadel�Camps often provide children with a first taste of independence and freedom from the restrictions of home and school while offering a milieu full of opportunities for psychosocial development, creative interaction, and mutual aid. Though summer camps have simultaneously given current and future social workers educational, practice, research, and theory-development opportunities as they direct, staff, attend, and provide supervision, the field has received limited scholarly attention. Not just play focuses on the relationship between social work and the summer camp movement and provides a comprehensive treatment of this underappreciated area of practice. Social workers and camp professionals will value the many advantages and connections explored in the volume, which also incorporates case vignettes and core scholarly research.

Grounded in < theoretical explorations of the entanglement of consent and subjectivity across a range of textual, visual, multi- and digital media, querying consent considers the relationships between consent and agency before moving on to trace the concept�%�s outcomes through a range of investigations of the mutual implication of personhood and self-ownership. 9781138744226����Ğё�e���vL��R;NIN� O�d���R;NINN>yO�S��Beyond Prime Time Activism(Communication Activism And Social ChangeCharlotte Ryan�In this accessible introduction to communication activism, organizer karen jeffreys and sociologist charlotte ryan draw on more than two decades of ongoing collaboration, using the rhode island coalition for the homeless (rich) as a case study. The book examines a community with shared values, decision-making, and conflict resolution procedures, tracking its organizing strategy and matched communication plan. The authors first describe a communication campaign during the welfare reform battles (1990-1995) in which they began to practice communication activism. In ongoing work with two organizations over the next two decades, they distil a model of communication activism that draws directly from vibrant traditions of empowerment communication in u.S. Social movements and movements from the global south. Beyond prime time activism provides students and researchers with an invaluable look at contemporary activism practices and with practical tools tried and tested in two decades of social movement engagement.

David o. Dowling argues that although developments in media technology have enabled the ascendance of nonfictional storytelling to new heights through new forms, it has done so at the peril of these intensely persuasive designs becoming deployed for commercial and political purposes. He shows how traditional boundaries separating genres and dividing editorial from advertising content have fallen with the rise of media hybridity, drawing attention to how the principle of an independent press can be reformulated for the digital ecosystem. Immersive longform storytelling is a compelling examination of storytelling, covering multimedia features, on-demand documentary television, branded digital documentaries, interactive online documentaries, and podcasting.

Engaging with wider scholarship on transnationalism, urban mobilities and the geopolitical dimensions of home among migrants and diasporic communities, the author draws on ethnographic work to examine the experiences of people who migrated from vietnam to london at different times and in diverse circumstances, including individuals who arrived as refugees in the 1970s, as well as those who have migrated for work or education in recent years. Migration, work and home-making in the city thus sheds new light on the social, material and spiritual practices through which people create senses of home that connect them with their country of origin, and reveals how home-making is constrained by immigration policies, insecure housing and precarious work, thus highlighting the barriers to belonging in the city. 9781138744325�Q�z0R_^\N�V�[�S�N�bT1r\pQ�v݋�N>yOu;m^Narratives Of Conflict, Belonging, And The State Discourse And Social Life In Post-war Ireland-Discourse And Social Life In Post-war IrelandBrigittine M.

Using concepts developed by a series of 'maverick' anthropologists who were systematically marginalised as their ideas fell outside the standard academic canon, such as arnold van gennep, marcel mauss, paul radin, lucien levy-bruhl and gregory bateson, the authors argue that such concepts are necessary for understanding better the rise and dynamics of the modern world, including the development of the social sciences, in particular sociology and anthropology. Concepts discussed include liminality, imitation, schismogenesis and trickster, which provide an anthropological 'toolkit' for readers to develop innovative understandings of the underlying power mechanisms of globalized modernity. Aimed at graduate students and researchers, the book is clearly structured.

Weisser, Ph.D.Nova Science, U.S.A.+This book covers the two arguments made about guns in the united states today. On the one hand, pro-gun advocates claim that the benefit of gun ownership as protection from crime outweighs the risks of intentional and accidental gun injuries. On the other hand, most gun violence researchers claim that the risks of intentional and accidental gun injuries outweigh the benefits of owning a gun. Based on original surveys of gun owners and non-gun owners, primary data from medical and law-enforcement sources, summaries of noted research from both perspectives and personal experiences culled from more than 50 years in the gun business, this book explains why gun control advocates and gun rights advocates are unable to find common ground to develop regulatory policies acceptable to both sides. The introduction and chapter one define gun violence in numeric and demographic terms  where gun violence occurs, who are the perpetrators and the victims, and the accuracy of the data is the numerical data used by both sides to support their solutions to the problem. 9781138494572��)Ryr�e,g��f[N?e�l�Q�`a� Dalit Text#Aesthetics And Politics Re-imaginedBEdited By Judith Misrahi-barak, K.

This book provides a masterful analysis of these issues, with a particular focus on the emergence, dynamics, and planning of polycentric city-regions in contemporary Europe' Allen Scott of University of California, and author of Global City-Regions A new 21st century urban phenomenon is emerging: the networked polycentric mega-city region. Developed around one or more cities of global status, it is characterized by a cluster of cities and towns, physically separate but intensively networked in a complex spatial division of labour. This book describes and analyses eight such regions in North West Europe. For the first time, this work shows how businesses interrelate and communicate in geographical space - within each region, between them, and with the wider world. It < goes on to demonstrate the profound consequences for spatial planning and regional development in Europe - and, by implication, other similar urban regions of the world. The Polycentric Metropolis introduces the concept of a mega-city region, analyses its characteristics, examines the issues surrounding regional identities, and discusses policy ramifications and outcomes for infrastructure, transport systems and regulation. 9781107193659'Ypenc0eP�^�l0�Tuir&Otf[Kb�Q#Big Data, Health Law, And BioethicsCohen I.

Core themes of family, gender, temporality, politics, education, technology, disability, conflict, identity, ethnicity, and friendship traverse across the chapters, framed through various film, television, literature, and virtual media sources. Here, childhood is considered far from homogeneous and the dominance of neoliberal models of agency is questioned by intersectional and intergenerational analyses. This book posits there is vast power in popular culture representations of children's agency, and interrogation of these themes through interdisciplinary lenses is vital to furthering knowledge and understanding about children's lives and within childhood studies. 9781785332746�NU[�vQ�~NLuOnline World Of Surrogacy, TheBerendBerghahn BooksZZsuzsa berend presents a methodologically innovative ethnography of surromomsonline.Com, the largest surrogacy support website in the united states.

Weaver Indigenous peoples around the world and our allies often reflect on the many challenges that continue to confront us, the reasons behind health, economic, and social disparities, and the best ways forward to a healthy future. This book draws on theoretical, conceptual, and evidence-based scholarship as well as interviews with scholars immersed in indigenous wellbeing, to examine contemporary issues for native americans. It includes reflections on resilience as well as disparities. In recent decades, there has been increasing attention on how trauma, both historical and contemporary, shapes the lives of native americans. Indigenous scholars urge recognition of historical trauma as a framework for understanding contemporary health and social disparities. Accordingly, this book uses a trauma-informed lens to examine native american issues with the understanding that even when not specifically seeking to address trauma directly, it is useful to understand that trauma is a common experience that can shape many aspects of life. 9781138674349 S_�N�e,g'`+RN7bM|+Gender And The Koseki In Contemporary JapanSurname, Power And Privilege Linda White�This book engages with gender hierarchy and structural inequality in japanese society and examines the household register, koseki, one of the central structures shaping gender in japan today. 9781474420655S_�Nςm�T�[Ye�Q�z2Pentecostalism And Politics Of Conversion In IndiaSahoo Sarbeswar�This book studies the politics of pentecostal conversion and anti-christian violence in india and unravels the complex interactions between different actors/ agents in the production of anti-christian violence. 9781138044388 I{�~6R�^�sQ.��vFUNt�_ Hierarchy#A Key Idea For Business And Society John ChildrWritten by a world-renowned authority, hierarchy takes readers on a journey which traverses how hierarchy has evolved, is understood in various disciplines, and is applied in practice. Referring a wide range of sources, the book provides an inspirational introduction to understanding what is perhaps the key idea in business and management. As a fundamental organizational principle, hierarchy is everywhere. Perhaps because of its ubiquity, the significance of hierarchy has become under-analyzed in view of the growing strains on society imposed by organizational < inequality. This book analyzes the advantages and disadvantages that hierarchy brings as a form of organization, providing an accessible overview of this fundamental idea within both business and society.

This contradiction at the heart of automobility is the target of this book, which takes to task the moving  iron cages that roam the modern landscape. Given the ubiquity of the automobile, and the patent contradictions and impossibilities on which it rests, it is strange that automobility has escaped serious critical theoretical attention for so long.In this volume, distinguished scholars from across the social sciences and humanities focus a critical theoretical gaze on the automobile or, more accurately, on the regime of automobility that conjoins a particular conception of autonomy with a particular conception of mobility and sees the automobile as the pure living embodiment of automobility. The contributors interrogate not simply  the car but also the social forms of organization that enable, and are reproduced by, widespread automobility; the cultural reproduction of auto-mobile subjectivities; and the political refiguration of autonomy and constraint that have been driven by automobility. In doing so, they open the space for a political evaluation and reappraisal of automobility in all of its facets.This volume will be of interest to those working in areas such as geography, politics, consumption and cultural studies, but also to those in critical theory and the sociology of objects and of everyday life.USD36.95 9781138911864 �S`�t��0�e�lN�[��(Reflexivity: Theory, Method And Practice Karen LumsdenVReflexivity: theory, method and practice draws together methodological, theoretical and philosophical discussions of reflexivity in the social sciences, and interrogates reflexivity as a tool and practice of researchers in the contemporary public engagement and impact context which social researchers and academics are required to negotiate. 9781108399593�S`21N�~�v>yO3wS�|ň,g��VE�>yOۏek\�~�v�bJT=Rethinking Society For The 21st Century 3 Volume Hardback Set4Report Of The International Panel On Social Progress-International Panel On Social Progress (ipsp)HThis international panel of social scientists assesses the achievements of world societies, the trends and dangers, and the possible futures in the twenty-first century.

By examining the anti-nuclear movement at both urban and transnational scales, the book also reveals the complex geography of today's globally connected social movements. It emphasizes the contestation of urban space by anti-nuclear activists in tokyo and the weaving together of urban and cyber space in their praxis. By focusing on the cultural life of the movement-from its characteristic demonstration style to its blogs, zines and pamphlets-this book communicates activists' voices in their own words.

Examining one of the most sought-after - and secretive - graduate professions, the book provides a first-hand account of the boardroom culture of europe's strongest economy. Analyzing how knowledge and power operate in this sector, felix stein explores a number of paradoxes. For example, while it is the job of management consultants to analyse the activities of other employees, they actually spend most of their time in luxurious seclusion away from them. In addition, despite having a strong sense of the importance of their work, consultants often find it difficult to explain to outsiders what it is they do.

From the development of war guilt to the vivid effect of art on bringing alive the realities of the war, it analyses a diversity of post-war issues in the pacific basin. Organised into five parts, the book begins by scrutinizing the conflicting attitudes towards japanese post-war society and identifies the various legacies of the war. It also provides an examination of the aftermath of hiroshima and nagaski, before studying contemporary civil society and analysing the way memories of the war have changed with time. Each of the chapters discusses the japanese government's inability to achieve reconciliation with its neighbours, despite the passage of over 70 years, and the denial of the atrocities committed by the imperial army. Arguing that this policy of continuous denial has triggered the rise of civil movements in japan, this book will be useful to students and scholars of japanese history and japanese studies in general. 9783837644319qQ Tu;m�WpQ�]yr �*N�N�T>y:SBLiving Together - Roland Barthes, The Individual And The CommunityStene-johansen, Knut�Is it possible to create a community where everyone lives according to their own rhythm, and yet respects the individual rhythms of others? this volume contains new essays which investigate and actualize the concepts that roland barthes discussed in his famous 1977 lecture series, how to live together, at the coll ge de france.

This book, the first in-depth history of the hijra community, illuminates the colonial and postcolonial governance of gender and sexuality and the production of colonial knowledge. From the 1850s, colonial officials and middle class indians increasingly expressed moral outrage at hijras' feminine gender expression, sexuality, bodies and public performances. To the british, hijras were an ungovernable population that posed a danger to colonial rule. In 1871, the colonial government passed a law that criminalised hijras, with the explicit aim of causing hijras' 'extermination'. But hijras evaded police, kept on the move, broke the law and kept their cultural traditions alive. Based on extensive archival work in india and the uk, jessica hinchy argues that hijras were criminalised not simply because of imported british norms, but due to a complex set of local factors, including elite indian attitudes. 9781138784758�VE�SO��ZSi_�ڋ�O0��h�L�:N0�ltN?eV{International Sports Betting*Integrity, Deviance, Governance And Policy6Edited By Jean-patrick Villeneuve And Martial PasquierJWritten by an international team of academic researchers and industry professionals, international sports betting explores the central concepts of integrity and deviance, governance and policy, as well as perennial issues linked to the gambling sector, such as regulatory responsibilities and the fight against gambling addiction. 9781538108000Ǐ�^O(ufk�R�NMO�k�N�S�[f��[�fL��T NS_L�:N�v�e�NUExcessive Use Of Force: One Mother's Struggle Against Police Brutality And MisconductLoretta P.

Salama'Human history has seen many settlements transformed or built entirely by expatriate work forces and foreigners arriving from various places. Recent migration patterns in the gulf have led to emerging  airport societies on unprecedented scales. Most guest workers, both labourers and mid to high-income groups, perceive their stay as a temporary opportunity to earn suitable income or gain experience. This timely book analyses the essential characteristics of this unique urban phenomenon substantiated by concrete examples and empirical research. Both authors have lived and worked in the gulf including qatar, bahrain and the united arab emirates during various periods between 2006 and 2014. They explore gulf cities from macro and interconnected perspectives rather than focusing solely on singular aspects within the built environment. As academic architects specialised in urbanism and the complex dynamics between people and places the authors build new bridges for understanding demographic and social changes impacting urban transformations in the gulf. 9781138182479L�p��e�lWalking Methods!Biographical Research On The Move Maggie O Neill And Brian Roberts 9780815392774*jT'k2mSHorizontal EuropeanisationBThe Transnationalisation Of Daily Life And Social Fields In EuropeEdited By Martin Heidenreich�This book focuses on processes of europeanisation in the academic, bureaucratic, professional and associational field, and the increasingly european context of solidarity, networks and social inequalities.

It focuses on discourse from members of a civic association active in promoting democracy and attempting participation in the transnational public sphere. Unlike previous books that have addressed the question of european identity from top-down stances or through methodological nationalism, this book engages with the multifaceted concept of transnationalism as a key to the negotiation of  glocal identities. Applying a discourse historical approach (dha) through a transnational reading, it shows how grassroots actors/speakers construct their different cultural and political affiliations as both world and european citizens. They negotiate institutional identities and historical discourses of nationhood through new forms of mobility, cultural diversity and the imagination of europe as a proxy for a cosmopolitan civil society. These discourses are ever more important in a fractured and polarised europe falling prey to contrary discourses of nationhood and ethnic solidarity. 9781536149333�s�X�O�b@\(EPA):�0cb�T?eV{FEnvironmental Protection Agency (epa): Issues, Challenges And Policies Coby Schaefer�Since 2009, the u.S.

Arne l. Kalleberg sets out to examine the impact of the liberalization of labor markets and welfare systems on the growth of precarious work and job insecurity for indicators of well-being such as economic insecurity, family formation and happiness, in six advanced capitalist democracies: the united states, the united kingdom, germany, japan, spain, and denmark. This insightful cross-national analysis demonstrates how active labor market policies and generous social welfare systems can help to protect workers and give employers latitude as they seek to adapt to the rise of national and global competition and the rapidity of sweeping technological changes. Such policies thereby form elements of a new social contract that offers the potential for addressing many of the major challenges resulting from the rise of precarious work. 9781138560796�b/g�NAm�vlQlaƋN!P�[�f[/gNYe��U\g3Citizenship And Advocacy In Technical Communication&Scholarly And Pedagogical Perspectives,Edited By Godwin Agboka And Natalia Matveeva 9783319715186�b/gt'`�v�e��0�yf[Nyb$R�k�\s|���l�N�e�~�_�eƖ6Time, Science And The Critique Of Technological Reason$Essays In Honour Of Herm�nio MartinsJos� Esteban CastroThis festschrift commemorates the legacy of uk-based portuguese sociologist herm�nio�martins (1934-2015).

When americans think of freedom, they often picture the open road. Yet nowhere are we more likely to encounter the long arm of the law than in our cars. Sarah seo reveals how the rise of the auto����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������mobile led us to accept--and expect--pervasive police power. As policing the open road makes clear, this radical transformation in the nature and meaning of american freedom has had far-reaching political and legal consequences. Before the twentieth century, most americans rarely came into contact with police officers. But with more and more drivers behind the wheel, police departments rapidly expanded their forces and increased officers' authority to stop citizens who violated traffic laws. The fourth amendment--the constitutional protection against unreasonable searches and seizures--did not effectively shield individuals from government intrusion while driving. Instead, jurists interpreted the amendment narrowly. 9780367209070f��[�_tf[Kb�QHandbook Of Police Psychology Jack Kitaeff�The handbook of police psychology features contributions from over 30 leading experts on the core matters of police psychology.

However, in many european countries, and in almost all fields of life, older persons experience discrimination, social exclusion, and negative stereotypes that portray them as different or a burden to society. This pivotal book is the first of its kind, providing a rich and diverse analysis of the inter-relationships between ageing, ageism and law within europe.Throughout the book  which builds on a european cooperation in science & technology (cost) action  leading scholars offer theoretical and empirical analysis in order to discern the role european law plays in perpetuating and combating ageism. Including specific examples of how stereotypes and prejudices influence and shape the european legal system, the book contributes to the broader current global social movement towards advancing a new international human rights convention for older persons. 9781501734762�yZZ O�~� O�epQZZ�Y�lNpS�^N�O;NIN�vb_bDivorcing Traditions8Islamic Marriage Law And The Making Of Indian SecularismKatherine LemonsDivorcing traditions is an ethnography of islamic legal expertise and practices in india, a secular state in which muslims are a significant minority and where islamic judgments are not legally binding. Katherine lemons argues that an analysis of divorce in accordance with islamic strictures is critical to the understanding of indian secularism. Lemons analyzes four marital dispute adjudication forums run by muslim jurists or lay muslims to show that religious law does not muddle the categories of religion and law but generates them. Drawing on ethnographic and archival research conducted in these four institutions-ngo-run women's arbitration centers (mahila panchayats); sharia courts (dar ul-qazas); a muslim jurist's authoritative legal opinions (fatwas); and the practice of what a muslim legal expert (mufti) calls "spiritual healing"-divorcing traditions shows how secularism is an ongoing project that seeks to establish and maintain an appropriate relationship between religion and politics. A secular state is always secularizing.GBP82 9781538103364�Rϑ�|�vY7h'`��S��N*g�[b�vb��>Diversity In The Power Elite: Ironies And Unfulfilled Promises*Richard L. Zweigenhaft; G.

In both, resistance to democratic reforms led to coups d'etat and presidential assassinations. A conundrum arises in terms of what transpires next. In rwanda, total genocide was perpetrated by extremist hutu actors, including government officials, upon the country's tutsi and politically moderate hutu populations. In burundi the coup d'etat failed and instead ushered in a lengthy period of civil war. This divergence in outcome is puzzling given the similarity of these two countries, and it is not adequately explained by studies that address collective violence in each. This book utilizes an integrative approach that facilitates the formation of an explanation that more fully accounts for variation in the type of collective violence that occurred in rwanda and burundi. Showing that political actors - during periods of major institutional change - do not all respond to or perceive reform in the exact same manner or in a necessarily rational manner, this book makes an important contribution to the literature on ethnic conflict, collective violence and democratization in africa. 9781788110358&Ot���[�< eQ�Ethical LeadershipA PrimerRobert M. Mcmanus�The world cries out for ethical leaders. We expect the best, but we are often left profoundly disappointed. While leadership programs may feature ethics as part of their curriculum, the approach is often either simplistic or overly esoteric. This book addresses this scarcity of resources for training ethical leaders by providing a primer of several ethical frameworks accompanied by extended examples to help inform decision-making. The text also presents a number of leadership models that claim an ethical component. By providing a consistent case analysis based on the five components of leadership model, readers benefit from a uniform approach to evaluating ethical leadership.By using the five components of leadership model as a consistent point of reference, mcmanus, ward, and perry offer readers a variety of insights on ethical leadership. Conclusions include the importance of drawing from multiple ethical and leadership perspectives, moving away from exclusively leader-centric approaches to ethical leadership, the importance of asking questions to maximize self-awareness, and considering multiple points of view whenever addressing an ethical conundrum. 9781138048720�����v�wƋ>yOf[�e�l��^(u�Nxvz�v�i�_N�e�l0The Sociology Of Knowledge Approach To Discourse7Conceptual And Methodological Applications For ResearchGEdited By Reiner Keller, Anna-katharina Hornridge And Wolf J Sch?nemann 9781447334729���p6R ���\O:N>yO��v �V���[�^ �v�^�� Troublemakers;The Construction Of  troubled Families As A Social ProblemCrossley, Stephen (author) Policy PressPaving the way for a government to fulfil its responsibility to families, this authoritative and critical account of the troubled families programme reveals the inconsistencies and contradictions within it, and issues of deceit and malpractice in its operation. 9781138646391l�KQ�e��/O�v�ʑ�l�_>yOf[)Max Weber's Interpretive Sociology Of Law Michel Coutu#This book presents a clear and precise account of the structure and content of max weber s sociology of law: situating its methodological and epistemological specificity in relation to other approaches to the sociology of law; as well as offering a critical evaluation of weber s usefulness for contemporary socio-legal research.

Embassy in beirut, lebanon, in 1983, the u.S. Department of state began an embassy construction program known as the inman program to protect u.S. Personnel. However, the u.S. Department of state completed only 24 of the 57 planned construction projects, in part due to poor planning, systemic weaknesses in program management, difficulties acquiring sites, schedule delays, cost increases, and subsequent funding limitations. Following the demise of the inman program in the early 1990s, very few new construction projects were initiated until after the two 1998 embassy bombings in africa. Following those attacks, the secure embassy construction and counterterrorism act of 1999 required the u.S. Department of state to maintain a list of diplomatic facilities to be scheduled for replacement based on their vulnerability to attack. The u.S. Department of state determined that diplomatic facilities at more than 180 posts more than half of u.S. Overseas missions needed to be replaced to meet security standards. By 2016, over 30,000 staff were moved into more secure facilities. 9780367203184��V�v�b�ԈL�Nb1\��[?eV{0�k�R�Tb�R�v��fLatino Professionals In America0Testimonios Of Policy, Perseverance, And Success Maria Chavez�In latino professionals in america, maria chavez combines rich qualitative interviews, auto-ethnographic accounts, and policy analysis to explore the converging oppressions that make it difficult for latinos to become professionals and to envision themselves as successful in those professions. Recounting her own story, chavez interviews 31 latino professionals from across the nation in a variety of occupations and careers, contextualizing their experiences amid family struggles and ongoing racism in the united states. She addresses gender inequality within the latino community, arguing that by defending, rationalizing, or ignoring patriarchy within the latino community perpetuates systems of oppression-especially < for women; gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals; and others at the intersections. The experiences of these latino professionals and the author's analysis provide a blueprint for what works-one, both pragmatic and hopeful, that uses real lives to illustrate how a combination of public policies, people, and perseverance increases the presence of america's fastest-growing demographic group in the professional class. 9781107106703��V�T�R�b'Y�v�R�R�T6��~‰�_8Labor And The Class Idea In The United States And Canada+Eidlin, Barry (mcgill University, Montreal)@This book is aimed at readers who want a better understanding of one of the key drivers of growing economic inequality: union decline.

Baker�Campaigns against prostitution of young people in the united states have surged and ebbed multiple times over the last fifty years. Fighting the u.S. Youth sex trade: race, gender, and politics examines how politically and ideologically diverse activists joined together to change perceptions and public policies on youth involvement in the sex trade over time, reframing "juvenile prostitution" of the 1970s as "commercial sexual exploitation of children" in the 1990s, and then as "domestic minor sex trafficking" in the 2000s. Based on organizational archives and interviews with activists, baker shows that these campaigns were fundamentally shaped by the politics of gender, race and class, and global anti-trafficking campaigns. The author argues that the very frames that have made these movements so successful in achieving new laws and programs for youth have limited their ability to achieve systematic reforms that could decrease youth vulnerability to involvement in the sex trade. 9780367233297��V>yO�v>yO Ns^I{N>yORB\9Social Inequality And Social Stratification In Us SocietyChristopher B.

Academic studies have found that gossip and reputation have the power to enforce social norms, facilitate cooperation, and act as a means of social control. The key mechanism for the creation, maintenance, and destruction of reputations in everyday life is gossip - evaluative talk about absent third parties. Reputation and gossip are inseparably intertwined, but up until now have been mostly studied in isolation. The oxford handbook of gossip and reputation fills this intellectual gap, providing an integrated understanding of the foundations of gossip and reputation, as well as outlining a potential framework for future research.

This book seeks to go beyond conventional definitions of the long duree by locating the social practice of walling and encirclement in the broadest context of human history, integrating insights from archaeology and anthropology. Such an approach, far from being simply academic, has crucial contemporary relevance, as its focus on origins helps to locate the essential dynamics of this practice, and provides a rare external position from which to view the phenomenon as a transformative exercise, with the area walled serving as an artificial womb or matrix. The modern world, with its ingrained ideas of borders, nation states and other entities, often makes it is very difficult to gain a critical distance and detachment to see beyond conventional perspectives.

Alejandria-gonzalez; Subharati Ghosh; Nicolas Sacco"This book is a collection of work on aging and development from authors from the global south. Aging is steadily evolving as a public health and social crisis for which countries of the global south are ill-prepared. The forces of development and improved public health services have ensured that human being live longer. But there is enough evidence that such longevity do not commensurate with good health. As such, many countries of the global south are seeing a booming population who are aging in poor health, without the necessary safety net to ensure quality of life. This book discusses work from asia, africa, and south america to explore the challenges facing older adults. Topics include: aging in institutions, living arrangements of older adults, food insecurity, social isolation, end of life migration, and policy papers. This is the first book to bring together varied perspectives on the situation of older adults, and the challenges and opportunities that lie in developing innovative, sustainable programs to support elderly care services. 9781138610125 hQtf[/gLu�v>yO�~�g(The Social Structures Of Global Academia.Edited By < Fabian Cannizzo And Nick Osbaldiston 9781108424967�N�v;NSO�V Y��1u0R ��R�T�QV{Recovering The Human Subject Freedom, Creativity And Decision Laidlaw James�This volume responds to the often-proclaimed 'death of the subject' in post-structuralist theorizing, and to calls from across the social sciences for 'post-humanist' alternatives to liberal humanism in a distinctively anthropological manner. It asks: can we use the intellectual resources developed in those approaches and debates to reconstruct a new account of how individual human subjects are contingently put together in diverse historical and ethnographic contexts? anthropologists know that the people they work with think in terms of particular, distinctive, individual human personalities, and that in times of change and crisis these individuals matter crucially to how things turn out. 9781107186620�N{|�vtYy_N�^d��Ǐ�S�T�s(W�v�`%��SHuman Bondage And Abolition+New Histories Of Past And Present SlaveriesElizabeth Swanson]Contemporary enslavement remains invisible because it operates as a criminal enterprise rather than a legal institution.

Anthropologists today use comparisons to describe and to explain, to generalise and to challenge generalisations, to critique and to create new concepts. In this multiplicity of often contradictory aims lie both the key challenge of anthropological comparison, and also its key strength. Matei candea maps a path through that entangled conversation, providing a ground-up re-assessment of the key conceptual issues at the heart of any form of anthropological comparison, whilst creating a bold charter for reconsidering the value of comparison in anthropology and beyond. 9781785330186�N{|f[�[�T\O�[�(W�NASN�~�vΘyO~v�yhQfN,Encyclopedia of Race, Ethnicity, and SocietyRichard T Schaefer�Offers a comprehensive look at the roles race and ethnicity play in society and in our daily lives.

Workers become eligible for social security benefits for themselves and their family members by working in social security-covered employment. Social security is of ongoing interest both because of its role in supporting a large portion of the population and because of its long-term financial imbalance. The social security benefits that are paid to worker beneficiaries and to workers dependents and survivors are based on workers past earnings. Retired worker benefits can be affected by other adjustments, for example, the windfall elimination provision. 9781536157475>yO�O���k�u�̀of ��y)R�T��R=Social Security Disability: Background, Benefits And ProgramsMichael Dimitriadis�Social security disability insurance (ssdi) provides benefits to nonelderly workers and their eligible dependents if the worker paid social security taxes for a certain number of years and is unable to perform substantial work due to a qualifying impairment.

At the same time how many of us adjust our behaviour in response to such information? in this new book professor chris brown explores people�b reactions to optimal rational positions: propositions that set out requirements for change. For example the need to reduce carbon emissions to minimize the impacts of climate change is an optimal rational position; as is the need to engage in 30 minutes of exercise a day, to eat more healthily or to drink less alcohol. It seems obvious that we should want to pursue optimal rational positions because they espouse the types of behaviours that will enable us to live healthier, happier or more productive lives; that can improve the lives and outcomes of others; or that can help us ensure social and environmental sustainability.�� 9780367319502>yOt�� Social Theory/The Multicultural, Global, And Classic ReadingsCharles LemertFor nearly a quarter-century, charles lemert has shared his love of social theory, and the questions it explores, in this collection of readings.

Of all the eu's eastern neighbours, moldova is objectively the most european on several counts, including sharing a common history, language, culture and border with eu member state romania. These provide a positive foundation for a successful agreement, notwithstanding the major political challenges that confront contemporary moldova. The purpose of this handbook is to make the complex political, economic and legal content of the association agreement readily understandable. This second edition, published two years into the agreement's implementation, adds new value, charting moldova's progress in putting the agreement into effect. Two teams of researchers from leading independent think tanks, ceps in brussels and the expert-grup in chisinau, collaborated on this project, with the support of the swedish international development agency (sida).

However, long-standing problems persist, and new problems have emerged. Water quality problems are diverse, ranging from pollution runoff from farms and ranches, city streets, and other diffuse or  nonpoint sources, to toxic substances discharged from factories and sewage treatment plants. Since the early 2000s, increased oil and g< as production across the nation has resulted in a corresponding increase in wastewater that must be managed, reused, or disposed of properly. In particular, the hydraulic fracturing process has also raised concerns about potential effects to human health and the environment, including the potential contamination of underground drinking water sources by injecting wastewater associated with the production of oil and gas. 9780190880668QX �>yO�]\O�yf[:NN�wƋN�� T Shaping A Science Of Social Work#Professional Knowledge And Identity"Brekke, John S.; Anastas, Jeane W.�Shaping a science of social work provides a basic framework for a social work science in terms of basic constructs, domains, and characteristics, considered within the context of academic disciplinarity and professional identity.

Exhaustive and authoritative, this acclaimed book combines biography and detailed studies of sophocles' plays, all set in the rich context of classical greek tragedy and the political, social, religious, and cultural world of athens's greatest age, the fifth century. Sophocles was the commanding figure of his day. The author of oedipus rex and antigone, he was not only the leading dramatist but also a distinguished politician, military commander, and religious figure. And yet the evidence about his life has, until now, been fragmentary. Reconstructing a lost literary world, jouanna has finally assembled all the available information, culled from inscriptions, archaeological evidence, and later sources. He also offers a huge range of new interpretations, from his emphasis on the significance of sophocles' political and military offices (previously often seen as honorary) to his analysis of sophocles' plays in the mythic and literary context of fifth-century drama. 9783319757827`�^0?agN�y)R� Nnx�[�eg�v>yO?eV{p�T"Attitudes, Aspirations And Welfare+Social Policy Directions In Uncertain TimesTaylor-gooby, Peter$This edited collection uses democratic forums to study what people want from the welfare state in five european countries.

It takes us inside an ethnography of the professional ethic of nurses in a rural hospital in kwazulu-natal, shaped by a deep history of mission medicine and changing forms of new public management. Liberal democratic principles of `transparency', `decentralization' and `rights', though promising freedom from control, often generate fear and insecurity instead. But despite the pressures they face, elizabeth hull shows that nurses draw on a range of practices from international migration to new religious movements, to assert new forms of citizenship. Focusing an anthropological lens on `professionalism', hull explores the major fault lines of south africa's fragmented social landscape - class, gender, race, and religion - to make an important contribution to the study of class formation and citizenship. 9781138830707 SO��0�f�RN>yO ,{2HrSport, Violence And SocietySecond Edition Young, KevinThis new edition explores organised and spontaneous violence, both on the field and off, and calls for a much broader definition of ?sports-related violence?, to include issues as diverse as criminal behaviour by players, abuse within sport and exploitative labour practices. 9781138477544�f�N'`�N�z㉳QN�[�^�f�R��YsY0�yZZN�S{|ckIN4Alternative Dispute Resolution And Domestic Violence&Women, Divorce And Alternative Justice Dafna LaviGDealing with the interface between the alternative dispute resolution (adr) movement and the phenomenon of domestic violence against women, this book examines the phenomenon of divorce disputes involving violence through the prism of `alternative justice' and the dispute resolution mechanisms offered by the adr movement.

This is accomplished by examining primarily the sociological literature into the construction of masculinities, but also the psychological and biological. It is a bold and comprehensive scrutiny of masculinities in ways that other masculinity textbooks are not. Individual chapters of men and masculinities examine what it means to socially and psychologically construct masculinity; what biologists and other scientists have to say about masculinity; and how we can make sense of research laying claim to causation. Other chapters examine the history and current theorizing of masculinities, as well as explaining how masculinity scholarship became imbedded within the social sciences. A chapter on the gender paradox highlights the difficulty of laying claim to a purely sociological account of gender, while mapping the rapidly changing notions of millennials' masculinity highlights the efficacy of the social. 9781138307360'`+R0^JTN>yO��_tf[U\gGender, Advertising And SocietyA Psychological PerspectiveMagdalena Dr Zawisza 9780815381518'`+R NlQGendered InjusticeAnastasia Tosouni�Drawing on rich ethnographic data, this book uncovers the reality of the livedexperiences and continued mistreatment of marginalized girls, and critically examines claims of innovation and empowerment in gender responsive youth justice. 9789811200823'`+R Ns^I{�>yO�~NmR�g�T�SU\-N�V�[Hh�OxvzGender Inequality:Socioeconomic Analysis And Developing Country Case StudiesClement A Tisdell`This unique book provides an easily comprehended overview of facts about gender inequality and contains a valuable introduction to economic theories of this inequality, the applicability of which is assessed in the light of empirical evidence.

This book adopts the metaphor of a boat, presenting addiction as the tidal wave that devastates the relation-ship, leaving both crew members fighting for survival. There's guidance to ensure each partner makes it safely back to shore and advice on surveying the damage to your relation-ship and deciding if you want to save it and set sail again. You'll find practical advice for both the partner and the addicted partner, including first-hand accounts of couples that have already undertaken the journey.

In this book in praise of wait times, award-winning author jason farman passionately argues that the delay between call and answer has always been an important part of the message. Traveling backward from our current era of twitter and texts, farman shows how societies have worked to eliminate waiting in communication and how they have interpreted those times' meanings. Exploring seven eras and objects of waiting-including pneumatic mail tubes in new york, elizabethan wax seals, and aboriginal australian message sticks-farman offers a new mindset for waiting. In a rebuttal to the demand for instant communication, farman makes a powerful case for why good things can come to those who wait. 9781447337683xvz�Q�z�T�f�R�v�~���-N�e�v�[0W��g0Experiences In Researching Conflict And ViolenceFieldwork Interrupted=Rivas, Althea-maria (editor), Browne, Brendan Ciar�n (editor)&This collection explores the roles of emotion, violence, uncertainty, identity and positionality within the process of doing research in and on conflict zones, as well as the complexity of methodological choices.

Ice presents multiple perspectives on a conflict through absorbing, entertaining narratives, countering polarizing, fear-inspired perspectives with the acceptance - even the embrace - of multiple viewpoints and worldviews without losing sight of facts and evidence. Based on evidence from multiple disciplines such as history, sociology, theatre, and political science, ice presents an approach to entertainment that can begin to close the ideological divide.

Contrary to what is widely supposed, bukodi and goldthorpe's findings show there has been no overall decline in social mobility - though downward mobility is tending to rise and upward mobility to fall - and britain is not a distinctively low mobility society. However, the inequalities of mobility chances among individuals, in relation to their social origins, have not been reduced and remain in some respects extreme. Exposing the widespread misconceptions that prevail in political and policy circles, this book shows that educational policy alone cannot break the link between inequality of condition and inequality of opportunity. It will appeal to students, researchers, policy makers, and anyone interested in the issues surrounding social inequality, social mobility and education.USD79.99 9780197263983��V�v>yO;NIN0'`N/U�;NIN�eS1880-1914ESocialism, Sex, and the Culture of Aestheticism in Britain, 1880-1914 Livesey, RuthbThis book brings to life the growth of the socialist movement among men and women artists and writers in late nineteenth-century Britain. For these campaigners, socialism was inseparable from a desire for a new beauty of life; beauty that also, for many, required them rejecting the sexual conventions of the Victorian era.; From the early 1880s and well into the twentieth century, the efforts of these writers and activists existed in critical tension with other contemporary developments in literary culture. Livesey maps the ongoing dialogue between socialist writers like William Morris, decadent aesthetes such as Oscar Wilde and defining figures of early modernism including Virginia Woolf and Roger Fry. She concludes that socialist writers developed a distinct political aesthetic in which the love of beauty was to; act as a force for revolutionary change. 9781787432079 g�N���vR_^\a3Contested Belonging: Spaces, Practices, BiographiesK Davis/h Ghorashi/p Smets�In contested belonging: spaces, practices, biographies contributions by well-known international scholars from different disciplines address the sites, practices, and narratives in which belonging is imagined, enacted and constrained, negotiated and contested.

In desire work melissa hackman traces the experiences of predominantly white ex-gay men as they attempt to forge a heterosexual masculinity and enter into heterosexual marriage through emotional, bodily, and religious work. These men subjected themselves to daily self-surveillance and followed prescribed behaviors such as changing how they talked and walked. Ex-gay men also saw themselves as participating in the redemption of the nation, because south african society was perceived as suffering from a crisis of masculinity in which the country lacked enough moral heterosexual men. By tying the experience of ex-gay men to the convergence of social movements and public debates surrounding race, violence, religion, and masculinity in south africa, hackman offers insights into the construction of personal identities in the context of sexuality and spirituality. 9780367195205��h�L�:NDeviant Behavior Erich Goode�Deviant behavior offers an engaging and wide-ranging discussion of deviant behavior, beliefs, and conditions.

The discussion in this volume encompasses both the explanatory (or positivist) approach and the constructionist (or labeling) perspectives, thereby lending a broad and inclusive vista on deviance.

The united states has one of the highest rates of hunger and food insecurity in the industrialized world, with poor households, single parents, and communities of color disproportionately affected. Food pantries-run by charitable and faith-based organizations-rather than legal entitlements have become a cornerstone of the government's efforts to end hunger. In feeding the other, rebecca de souza argues that food pantries stigmatize their clients through a discourse that emphasizes hard work, self help, and economic productivity rather than food justice and equity. De souza describes this "framing, blaming, and shaming" as "neoliberal stigma" that recasts the structural issue of hunger as a problem for the individual hungry person. De souza shows how neoliberal stigma plays out in practice through a comparative case analysis of two food pantries in duluth, minnesota.

Yet, very little academic writing has focused on solidarity in conceptual rather than empirical terms.Sally Scholz takes on this critical task here. She lays the groundwork for a theory of political solidarity, asking what solidarity means and how it differs fundamentally from other social and political concepts like camaraderie, association, or community. Scholz distinguishes a variety of types and levels of solidarity by their social ontologies, moral relations, and corresponding obligations. Political solidarity, in contrast to social solidarity and civic solidarity, aims to bring about social change by uniting individuals in their response to particular situations of injustice, oppression, or tyranny.GBP43.95 9780226482569/eM�:0Wbr�v'`+R �r��` ��c6R Dominatrix-Gender, Eroticism, And Control In The DungeonDanielle J.

Based on his five decades of experience in working with substance dependent individuals, this volume builds upon khantzian's theory of addiction as self-medication and provides insights into how addiction is rooted in human psychological suffering, and not pleasure seeking or self-destruction. Almost without exception, life histories of human discomfort, disconnection, and unhappiness leave those so burdened to be vulnerable to the appeal of addictive drugs, including alcohol.USD146 9780190858759�l�u�|^y�u�v�Vpb< !Healing The Distress Of PsychosisListening With Psychotic EarsMayeda, Shannon�Healing the distress of psychosis presents a novel approach to communicating with clients who are suffering from severe psychosis, whose brain functions are uniquely different and require an entirely new way to listen and engage with them. 9781138339781 -N�V0pS�^N�S{|�N2m�s�N'`.China, India And Alternative Asian ModernitiesDEdited By Kumar Sanjay, Satya P Mohanty, Archana Kumar And Raj Kumar�This book brings a new methodological approach to understand modernity by considering it as a shared and transcultural phenomenon. it brings diverse themes like india?s alternative modernities; competitive histories; confucian democracy in cultural china; chinese maritime economy; public sphere of the bhakti movement; alternative(s) to modernity in india, to argue for a polycentric notion of modernity with many centres across eurasia.   9781786431622-N�V�W^�SU\Kb�Q&Handbook On Urban Development In ChinaRay Yep�In recent decades, china has undergone an extraordinary transformation from an overwhelmingly rural population to that of a predominantly urban one.

More broadly, it draws on bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory and agnew s general strain theory to examine the factors and processes affecting young people, leading to life strain and delinquency. It represents the first study of this kind and involves the most systematic and comprehensive literature review of studies on major social, economic, political and cultural changes, as well as youth crime in contemporary china. Bao s arguments are supported by empirical evidence including data findings and over a decade s worth of observational research. Shedding new light on the nature of youth crime in a rapidly changing society, this methodical study will benefit policy makers and researchers, helping them to develop tactics and methods to reduce strain in the lives of young people, and thus effectively prevent delinquency in china. 9781788115025�ǖ\O:N�\�\�SqS�v�]\O�'k2mƉ҉"Self-employment As Precarious WorkA European Perspective Wieteke Conen�Contents:preface1.

As the strident arguments of both sides enter a heated political arena, it brings forward the deeply contested question of whether there is any possibility of both communities' contested positions being reconciled under the same law.

Mckinnon confronts the safety industry's most prevalent and dangerous myths head-on in changing safety's paradigms. This book lists the most prominent safety paradigms, or myths seen all over the world and gives advice on how they can be changed for the better. Around the world, the work injury rate is increasing, and more and more people are been killed at work each year. Man-made disasters continue to occur, and all are the r< esult of accidents, or undesired events. One of the reasons why safety is not improving is because it is surrounded by numerous myths. These paradigms hamper the progress of safety in the workplace. Only by identifying and examining these misconceptions can progress in the reduction of accidental losses be made. Numerous case studies and true to life examples in changing safety's paradigms give insight into how safety myths can be changed. No other book has been written about safety's paradigms and how to change them since many others do not want to challenge the status quo or rock the boat. 9781138039476�Oۏ'Yf[uL�:NeP�^NM�NOΘi���~T�e�lDPromoting Behavioral Health And Reducing Risk Among College StudentsA Comprehensive Approach0Edited By M.

According to emerging economic and social phenomena, there is a need for the design and operationalization of innovative solutions for managing public organizations based on trust. Issues dealing with public trust are hardly a novelty. Research to date, however, has failed to address questions on what changes need to be brought about throughout an organization so as to make it capable of creating and restoring trust within public organizations as well as in inter-organizational relationships. The current state in this respect is not known. Our book is an attempt to partially bridge an existing gap. In today s public management, two trends explicitly come to the fore. The first emphasizes creativity in problem solving, whereas the other involves increasing capability to establish relationships not only within the public sector, but also through collaboration with organizations from other sectors. 9781138321199sQ�Nq_�T�vU\g�21N�~6R�^�Si��v;N�[`�`Perspectives On ImpactDLeading Voices On Making Systemic Change In The Twenty-first CenturyEdited By Nina Montgomery6This book offers a snapshot of how the  impact industry is tackling the complex, multi-dimensional challenges facing our world.

A transition from type (i) to type (ii) knowledge is discernible in many fields from development studies, corporate strategy, institutional performance appraisal and population studies to a fundamental questioning of personal identities, roles and fulfilment. An acceleration of this transition is arguably essential to achieving sustainability and its many intermediary steps such as the UN's sustainable development goals. Yet type (ii) knowledge lacks a unifying concept. The primal episteme seeks to provide that unifying concept with supporting practical applications.SGD145 9781138048379D�,g;NIN�|^y�N��V�~�~�vupB�The Spirits Of Capitalism!Redeeming The Organizational SoulEdward Wray-bliss�Organised around concepts of gods, devils, soul, love, the individual, redemption this book will show how these concepts are being employed in current managerial, leadership and organisation discourses but also critically examine the religio-historical and philosophical roots of such, as well as demonstrating how the religio-historical and religio-philosophical can be brought into the lexicon of critical organisational scholarship 9781138569645�~�~�SU\N>yO��~�~�SU\�T⋄vt��N�[��$Organization Development And Society:Theory And Practice Of Organization Development ConsultingBaruch ShimoniFOrganization development: habitus oriented consulting argues that the concept of habitus can be a useful way to reconsider the role of organization development consultants.

The essays collated here argue that anthropology can be used to acknowledge, explore and interpret divergence and ideological conflict over human meaning. Using questions raised as part of the enlightenment movement, this volume is structured around some of the key themes the enlightenment fostered, including human nature, time, earth and the cosmos, beauty, order, harmony and design, moral sentiments, and the query of whether wealthy nations make for healthy publics. 9781138126244�YUO���l�e�_How To Read EthnographyPaloma Gay Y Blasco�How to read ethnography is an essential guide to approaching anthropological texts. It helps students to cultivate the skills they need to critically examine and understand how ethnographies are built up, as well as to think anthropologically and develop an anthropological imagination of their own. The authors reveal how ethnographically-informed anthropology plays a distinctive and valuable role in comprehending the complexity of the world we live in. This fully revised second edition includes fresh excerpts from key texts for analysis and comparison along with lucid explanations. In addition to concerns with argument, authority, and the relationship between theory and data, the book engages with the purpose, value, and accountability of ethnographic texts, as well as with their reception and usage. A brand new chapter looks at the kinds of collaboration between informants/consultants and anthropologists that go into the making of ethnographic writing. 9781350065352 �NHN/fU\ȉ� �N{|f[�e�l5What Are Exhibitions For? An Anthropological Approach Inge Daniels�Why do people go to exhibitions, and what do they hope to gain from the experience? what would happen if people are encouraged to move freely through exhibition spaces, take photographs and be playful? in this book, inge daniels explores what might happen if people and objects were freed from the regulations currently associated with going to an exhibition. Traditional understandings of exhibitions place the viewers in a one-way communication form, where the exhibition and those behind its creation inform their audiences. However, motivations behind exhibitions going are multiple and complex and frequently the intentions of curators do not match the expectations of their visitors. Based on an in-depth ethnographic examination of the processes involved in the making and reception of one particular exhibition experiment as well as a study that follows 'freed' objects into their new homes, this publication will shed light on what exhibitions are but also what they could become in the future. 9780253041623pS�^�vEe�N�e��Storytime In India?Wedding Songs, Victorian Tales, And The Ethnographic ExperienceHelen Priscilla Myers#Stories are the backbone of ethnographic research.

In particular, how the military dictatorship headed by general zia ul haq (1977 1988) - whose rule has been almost exclusively associated with a narrow agenda of islamisation - transformed the political field through a combination of coercion and consent-production. The zia regime inculcated within the society at large a 'common sense' privileging the cultivation of patronage ties and the concurrent demeaning of counter-hegemonic political practices which had threatened the structure of power in the decade before the military coup in 1977. 9780300230130����l�e�V�[:�Ns^�eKQ0R,g�S̑�[�v�r*Y Y�V;NIN?e�l�`a�UBeyond The Nation-state: The Zionist Political Imagination From Pinsker To Ben-gurionDmitry Shumsky�The jewish nation-state has often been thought of as zionism's end goal. In this bracing history of the idea of the jewish state in modern zionism, from its beginnings in the late nineteenth century until the establishment of the state of israel, dmitry shumsky challenges this deeply rooted assumption. In doing so, he complicates the narrative of the zionist quest for full sovereignty, provocatively showing how and why the leaders of the pre-state zionist movement imagined, articulated and promoted theories of self-determination in palestine either as part of a multinational ottoman state (1882-1917), or in the framework of multinational democracy. In particular, shumsky focuses on the writings and policies of five key zionist leaders from the habsburg and russian empires in central and eastern europe in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries: leon pinsker, theodor herzl, ahad ha'am, ze'ev jabotinsky, and david ben-gurion to offer a very pointed critique of zionist historiography. 9780300234015���Oo`�e�N:���O�_�YUO O�d0The Misinformation< Age: How False Beliefs Spread&Cailin O'connor; James Owen Weatherall�Why should we care about having true beliefs? and why do demonstrably false beliefs persist and spread despite consequences for the people who hold them? philosophers of       !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrt����uvwxyz{|}~�science cailin o'connor and james weatherall argue that social factors, rather than individual psychology, are what's essential to understanding the spread and persistence of false belief.

But if that's right, then why is it (apparently) irrelevant to many people whether they believe true things or not? in an age riven by factual disputes over everything from climate change to the size of inauguration crowds, the authors argue that social factors, not individual psychology, are what's essential to understanding the persistence of false belief and that we must know how those social forces work in order to fight misinformation effectively. 97804155195640W?e�lN�SU\Geopolitics And Development Marcus Power|Geopolitics and development examines the historical emergence of development as a form of governmentality, from the end of empire to the cold war and the war on terror. It illustrates the various ways in which the meanings and relations of development as a discourse, an apparatus and an aspiration, have been geopolitically imagined and enframed. The book traces some of the multiple historical associations between development and diplomacy and seeks to underline the centrality of questions of territory, security, statehood and sovereignty to the pursuit of development, along with its enrolment in various (b)ordering practices. In making a case for greater attention to the evolving nexus between geopolitics and development and with particular reference to africa, the book explores the historical and contemporary geopolitics of foreign aid, the interconnections between development and counterinsurgency, the role of the state and social movements in (re)imagining development, the rise of (re)emerging donors like china, india and brazil, and the growing significance of south-south flows of investment, trade and development cooperation. 97802302058885uP[S0W�{t�5uP[?e�RN͑�glQqQ�{t �?eV{�TCg�RGoverning ElectronicallyOE-government and the Reconfiguration of Public Administration, Policy and Power Paul Henman<This book provides rare insights into the nature of contemporary, technologically-facilitated government.

This policy response seems to be driven in part by frustration, a lack of understanding of the nature of the threat, an exaggerated faith in coercive action, and a lack of faith that democratic values are sufficiently flexible to allow for an effective counter-terrorism response. Why Right is Might addresses these misconceptions through a comparative analysis of terrorist campaigns drawn from all "Four Waves" of terrorist activity identified in the literature (anti-authoritarian, anti-colonial, Marxist, and religious).SGD337 9780739114094 T�g �;NINN?e�lt��&Poststructuralism and Political Theory Koch, AndrewcPoststructuralism and the Politics of Method" examines the political possibilities emerging with poststructuralist epistemology.

Aimed at advanced-level students and researchers, the book is a lively, stimulating and relevant introduction to `postcolonial geography' that elaborates on the critical interventions in social, cultural and political life this important subfield is poised to make. The book is structured around three intersecting parts - spaces< , 'identity'/hybridity, knowledge - that broadly follow the trajectory of postcolonial studies since the late 1970s. It comprises ten main chapters, each of which is situated at the intersections of postcolonialism and critical human geography. In doing so, postcolonialism develops three key arguments. First, that postcolonialism is best conceived as an intellectually creative and practical set of methodologies or approaches for critically engaging existing manifestations of power and exclusion in everyday life and in taken-as-given spaces. 9780190949907 T�1u;NIN�b` YqQ�NNLuPost-liberalismRecovering A Shared World Fred DallmayrCLiberal democracy is the dominant political ideology in the west today. Taken at face value it suggests an equivalency between its two central components-liberalism and democracy-but as fred dallmayr argues here, the two operate in very different registers. The two frequently conflict, endangering our public life.This is evident in the rise of self-centered neo-liberalism as well as autocratic movements in our world today. More specifically, the conflict within liberal democracy is between the pursuit of individual or coporate interest, on the one hand, and a "people" increasingly fractured by economic and cultural clashes, on the other. Dallmayr asks whether there is still room for genuine privacy and authentic democracy when all public goods, from schools to parks, police, and armies, have been made the target of privatization. In this book, dallmayr sets out to rescue democracy as a shared public and post-liberal regime. Nonetheless, "post-liberalism" does not involve the denial of human freedom nor does it suggest the endorsement of illiberal collectivism or nationalism. 9781108422321�����Sb�� �>N6R�^0�~Nm0Wt�Te�4�Spending To WinDPolitical Institutions, Economic Geography, And Government SubsidiesIRickard , Stephanie J.

This collection of essays challenges reactionary nationalism by making the positive case for the benefits of free movement for countries on both ends of the exchange. Open borders counters the knee-jerk reaction to build walls and close borders by arguing that there is not a moral, legal, philosophical, or economic case for limiting the movement of human beings at borders. The volume brings together essays by theorists in anthropology, geography, international relations, and other fields who argue for open borders with writings by activists who are working to make safe passage a reality on the ground. It puts forward a clear, concise, and convincing case for a world without movement restrictions at borders.The essays in the first part of the volume make a theoretical case for free movement by analyzing philosophical, legal, and moral arguments for opening borders. In doing so, they articulate a sustained critique of the dominant idea that states should favor the rights of their own citizens over the rights of all human beings. 9780190945398�[7b�TbR�^��Rl;N�V�[�v?e�l�S�^Clients And Constituents1Political Responsiveness In Patronage DemocraciesJennifer Bussell}Scholars of distributive politics often emphasize partisanship and clientelism. However, as jennifer bussell demonstrates in clients and constituents, legislators in "patronage democracies" also provide substantial constituency service: non-contingent, direct assistance to individual citizens. Bussell shows how the uneven character of access to services at the local level-often due to biased allocation on the part of local intermediaries-generates demand for help from higher-level officials. The nature of these appeals in turn provides incentives for politicians to help their constituents obtain public benefits. Drawing on a new cross-national dataset and extensive evidence from india-including sustained qualitative shadowing of politicians, novel elite and citizen surveys, and an experimental audit study with a near census of indian state and national legislators-this book provides a theoretical and empirical examination of political responsiveness in developing countries. It highlights the potential for an under-appreciated form of democratic accountability, one that is however rooted in the character of patronage-based politics. 9781844677559 �bN�2m�vl�KQ`�T_m O�_Marx and Freud in Latin AmericaBosteels, Bruno;The turbulent continent through the eyes of Marx and Freud.USD23.95 9781107175525�bN�2m�v?eZQ6R�^�6R�^S0p�=��T)]LXParty Systems In Latin America)Institutionalization, Decay, And CollapseMainwaring ScottfBased on contributions from leading scholars, this study generates a wealth of new empirical information about latin american party systems.

Drawing on the full range of the florentine's writings, acclaimed machiavelli biographer maurizio viroli gathers and interprets machiavelli's timeless wisdom about choosing leaders. The brief and engaging result is a new kind of prince--one addressed to citizens rather than rulers and designed to make you a better voter. Demolishing popular misconceptions that machiavelli is a cynical realist, the book shows that he believes republics can't survive, let alone thrive, without leaders who are virtuous as well as effective. Among much other valuable advice, machiavelli says that voters should pick leaders who put the common good above narrower interests and who make fighting corruption a priority, and he explains why the best way to recognize true leaders is to carefully examine their past actions and words. 9780300236026>yOl;N;NIN�'k2m>yO;NIN�v?e�l�T�[Ye9h�nSSocial Democracy In The Making: Political And Religious Roots Of European Socialism Dorrien, Gary�The fallout from twenty years of neoliberal economic globalism has sparked a surge of interest in the old idea of democratic socialism-a democracy in which the people control the economy and government, no group dominates any other, and every citizen is free, equal, and included. With a focus on the intertwined legacies of christian socialism and social democratic politics in britain and germany, this book traces the story of democratic socialism from its birth in the nineteenth century through the mid-1960s. Examining the tenets on which the movement was founded and how it adapted to different cultural, religious, and economic contexts from its beginnings through the social and political traumas of the twentieth century, gary dorrien reminds us that christian socialism paved the way for all liberation theologies that make the struggles of oppressed peoples the subject of redemption.

Governments cater to whichever domestic interest group coalition is dominant by borrowing from the coalition's preferred creditor.

Mehnaaz MomenThis book attempts to grasp the recent paradigm shift in american politics through the lens of satire. It connects changes in the political and cultural landscape to corresponding shifts in the structure and organization of the media, in order to shed light on the evolution of political satire on late-night television. Satire is situated in its historical background to comprehend its movement away from the fringes of discourse to the very center of politics and the media. Beginning in the 1990s, certain trends such as technological advances, media consolidation, and the globalization of communications reinforced each other, paving the way for satire to claim a prized spot in the visual media-a tendency that only gained strength after september 11. While the bush presidency presented itself as an apposite target for satirists, their stronghold on american television was made possible by a number of transitions in broader culture, which are encapsulated in the shrinking space available for political engagement under neoliberalism. 9780230228481?e�l�yf[�e�eT��r�zNLucb�v�V�^#New Directions In Political Science7Responding To The Challenges Of An Interdependent World Colin Hay Written by a team of leading scholars, this new text focuses on a range of key challenges posed by developments in 21st century politics to provide a state-of-the-art assessment of current thinking and future directions in Political Science and International Relations. 9780521722308-N�V�QQg�v�]~pN�N����k'YÍۏ�ve�R�N'Y[OQgckIN�b�b�vw��n)Catastrophe and Contention in Rural ChinaXMao's Great Leap Forward Famine and the Origins of Righteous Resistance in Da Fo VillageThaxton Jr., Ralph A.)Thaxton analyzes how the local Communist Party agents of the Mao-led central government imposed the famine of the Great Leap Forward on one rural village, how villagers remember this traumatic experience, and how they engaged in resistance to escape the famine and the predatory rule it reflected.USD40.99 9780198813071 �1u;NIN �-N�z�T'`+RR�]:Liberalism, Neutrality, And The Gendered Division Of LaborSchouten, GinaThis volume defends a particular set of progressive political interventions on the basis of their being legitimate exercises of coercive political power, specifically focusing on the gendered division of labour, which is widely regarded as the predominant form of gender injustice. 9780691180380�1u;NIN�N*N‰�_�vu}T �,{�NHr Liberalism#The Life Of An Idea, Second EditionEdmund FawcettUSD27.95 9781498595193 p�_�S_?e�l�]l��Sl��e.Walk Away: When The Political Left Turns Right Lee TrepanierjThis book examines key twentieth-century philosophers, theologians, and social scientists who began their careers with commitments to the political left only later to reappraise or reject them.

Veney argues that the restrictive refugee policies that were adopted in Tanzania and Kenya were a direct product of liberalization and democratization, the result of two nations forced to clarify their refugee policies at a time of immense internal political and socioeconomic transformation. 9780230241817NWS�Nl;N�v���x��V�[00W:S�ShQt�y�^xvz.Obstacles to Democratization in Southeast Asia6A Study of the Nation State, Regional and Global Order Erik Paul?Paul comprehensively analyzes the meaning of democratization in Southeast Asia's nation-states and how it relates to the development of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN.)

Instead of the east asian community, various functional mechanisms have come into being in the development of east asian cooperation because of complicated historical and economic relations among the countries. This book examines the roles played by asean (association of southeast asian nations), japan, u.S., and china in the cooperation respectively.

It features empirical research using original data and combining large-n qca analyses with a wide range of in-depth case studies from 18 western european countries. The book adopts a party-centric approach to the study of anti-system formations by focusing on the major turning points faced by such actors after their initial success: long-term electoral sustainability, the different modalities of integration at the systemic level and the electoral impact of transition to government. The author examines in particular the interplay between crucial elements of the internal supply-side of anti-system parties such as their organizational and ideological features, and the political opportunity structure. Anti-system parties is a major contribution to the literature on populism, anti-establishment parties and comparative political parties. 9781137009999^�2m�v9h ��]��v 9781107170711�g�^hQt�y�^�NLu?e�l:g�gN�Si�Constructi< ng Global Order#Agency And Change In World PoliticsAcharya AmitavLFor a long time, international relations scholars have adopted a narrow view of what is global order, who are its makers and managers, and what means they employ to realize their goals. Amitav acharya argues that the nature and scope of agency in the global order - who creates it and how - needs to be redefined and broadened. Order is built not by material power alone, but also by ideas and norms. While the west designed the post-war order, the non-western countries were not passive. They contested and redefined western ideas and norms, and contributed new ones of their own making. 9781626377806�� �;m�R��9/11�Negċ0O��V�V�Q�`�b5Spying: Assessing Us Domestic Intelligence Since 9/11Darren E.

The Europeanization of the World" puts forward a defense of Western civilization and the unique gifts it has bequeathed to the world - in particular, human rights and constitutional democracy - at a time when many around the globe equate the West with hubris and thinly veiled imperialism. John Headley argues that the Renaissance and the Reformation provided the effective currents for the development of two distinctive political ideas. The first is the idea of a common humanity, derived from antiquity, developed through natural law, and worked out in the new emerging global context to provide the basis for today's concept of universal human rights. The second is the idea of political dissent, first posited in the course of the Protestant Reformation and later maturing in the politics of the British monarchy.; Headley traces the development and implications of this first idea from antiquity to the present. He examines the English revolution of 1688 and party government in Britain and America into the early nineteenth century. And he challenges the now - common stance in historical studies of moral posturing against the West.; Headley contends that these unique ideas are Western civilization's most precious export, however presently distorted. Certainly European culture has its dark side - Auschwitz is but one example. Yet as Headley shows, no other civilization in history has bequeathed so sustained a tradition of universalizing aspirations as the West. "The Europeanization of the World" makes an argument that is controversial but long overdue.USD17.95 9781138053250 penc?e�l�NLu0;N��0Cg)R Data PoliticsWorlds, Subjects, Rights7Edited By Didier Bigo, Engin F.

This original and thought-provoking collection of case studies examines some of the ways in which migration, and the concomitant process of ecological and social change, have shaped and continued to shape human-environment relations in Amazonia. Drawing on a wide range of historical time frames (from pre-conquest times to the present) and ethnographic contexts, different chapters examine the complex and important links between migration and the classification, management, and domestication of plants and landscapes, as well as the incorporation and transformation of environmental knowledge, practices, ideologies and identities. 9780195305463 LNKQpQ�N*N�s�N�V�[�vދuUkraineBirth of a Modern NationYekelchyk, Serhy]Among the largest states in Europe, Ukraine first appeared on the world map in 1991.

However, these analyses largely overlook the process of candidate recruitment and selection, an issue intricately tied to political outcomes and the functioning of democracy.In this volume, a team of experts uses a common analytic framework developed by the editors to analyze the recruitment and selection of executive and legislative candidates in six major countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Uruguay. It does so from two perspectives. First, as a dependent variable, the volume explores the party and legal factors that drive the recruitment and selection process, thus producing particular types of candidates. It then considers candidate type as an independent variable, analyzing the impact of candidate type on campaigns, political parties, and the behavior of legislators and presidents once elected. 9780190459338�N�S�e���v�e�N:�Ql�]�T?e�l N�v N3z�[The Fight For Time2Migrant Day Laborers And The Politics Of PrecarityApostolidis, Paul�In this book, paul apostolidis asks what we can learn about social and economic precarity by considering the situation of latin american migrant day laborers in the united states today.

They set out the founding fathers' challenges in trying to govern new states, many of which are ethnically diverse and geographically diffuse and sparsely populated, with little administrative capacity. With the legacies of the slave trade, partition, christian missionaries, and extractive colonial institutions complicating their efforts, many african states faced stagnation, authoritarianism, and civil strife. Recent years have seen promising attempts to restore democracy to states under authoritarian rule and liberalize their economies, suggesting that the region is moving toward a new era.

StevensAn in-depth look at why American universities continue to favor U.S.-focused social science research despite efforts to make scholarship more cosmopolitan U.S. research universities have long endeavored to be cosmopolitan places, yet the disciplines of economics, political science, and sociology have remained stubbornly parochial. Despite decades of government and philanthropic investment in international scholarship, the most prestigious academic departments still favor research and expertise on the United States. Why? Seeing the World answers this question by examining university research centers that focus on the Middle East and related regional area studies. Drawing on candid interviews with scores of top scholars and university leaders to understand how international inquiry is perceived and valued inside the academy, Seeing the World explains how intense competition for tenure-line appointments encourages faculty to pursue "American" projects that are most likely to garner professional advancement. At the same time, constrained by tight budgets at home, university leaders eagerly court patrons and clients worldwide but have a hard time getting departmental faculty to join the program. Together these dynamics shape how scholarship about the rest of the world evolves. At once a work-and-occupations study of sc< holarly disciplines, an essay on the formal organization of knowledge, and an inquiry into the fate of area studies, Seeing the World is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of knowledge in a global era. 9780691137933я�N'k2mCg�RKN�N��[Ye�Q�z0^�V�S�VE��s�X�v�SS-The Struggle for Power in Early Modern Europe>Religious Conflict, Dynastic Empires, and International ChangeDaniel H.

While the state was in the process of being established, eight million muslim refugees arrived from india, who had to be absorbed into a population of 24 million people. However, within 15 years, pakistan was the fastest growing and transforming economy in the developing world, although the political evolution of the country during this period was not equally successful. Pakistan has vast agricultural and human resources, and its location promises trade, investment and other opportunities.

Yet there is also evidence that democracy itself is evolving. In a long-predicted development, democracy is potentially morphing into a conversation-based process called deliberative democracy. In this practice, technology-assisted public discussion, conscious reflection, and collective choice are beginning to reshape democratic governance, creating the power to override political dysfunction.

This book brings together a diverse group of american and international scholars, including contributors from japan, india, israel, and europe. Like updike himself, the collection canvases a wide range of topics, including updike's too often overlooked poetry and his single play. Its essays deal with not only political themes such as the traditional aspects of power, rights, equality, justice, or violence but also the more divisive elements in updike's work like race, g< ender, imperialism, hegemony, and technology. Ultimately, the book reveals how updike's immense body of work illuminates the central political questions and problems that troubled american culture during the second half of the twentieth century as well as the opening decade of the new millennium. 9781138047679?��N�Q�z��[��N�~U_'`��ir ,{2HrThe Arab-israeli Conflict3An Introduction And Documentary Reader, 2nd EditionGregory MahlerFThe arab-israeli conflict has been one of the most protracted and contentious disputes in the middle east.

ChwierothThe politics of major banking crises has been transformed since the nineteenth century. Analyzing extensive historical and contemporary evidence, chwieroth and walter demonstrate that the rising wealth of the middle class has generated 'great expectations' among voters that the government is responsible for the protection of this wealth. Crisis policy interventions have become more extensive and costly - and their political aftermaths far more fraught - because of democratic governance, not in spite of it. Using data from numerous democracies over two centuries, and detailed studies of brazil, the united kingdom and the united states, this book breaks new ground in exploring the consequences of the emerging mass political demand for financial stabilization. It shows why great expectations have induced rising financial fragility, more financial sector bailouts and rising political instability and discontent in contemporary democracies, providing new insight to anyone concerned with contemporary policy and politics. 9781930618862�����~r��Rϑ��1900t^�Neg�v�2mpS,{�[�N?e�l�TL��R;NINBeyond Red Power0American Indian Politics And Activism Since 1900Whether contesting termination locally, demanding reparations for stolen lands in the federal courts, or placing their case for decolonization in a global context, American Indians use institutions and political rhetorics that they did not necessarily create to their own ends. 9781901903546 g���Ǐ�SN*geg 2wSƖKorea: The Past and the Present]Selected Papers from the British Association for Korean Studies BAKS Papers Series, 1991-2004Global Oriental�Among the Papers included are: James Huntley Grayson:  Reverse syncretism and the sacred area of Muak-tong: the accommodation of Korean folk religion to the religious forms of Buddhism (Vol. 3, 1992); J.E.Hoare:  The British community in Korea: the colonial period 1910 1942 (Vol.7, 2000); Keith Howard:  Why should Korean shamans be women?

Carl LevanMIn 2015, nigeria's voters cast out the ruling people's democratic party (pdp). Here, a. Carl levan traces the political vulnerability of africa's largest party in the face of elite bargains that facilitated a democratic transition in 1999. These 'pacts' enabled electoral competition but ultimately undermined the party's coherence. Levan also crucially examines the four critical barriers to nigeria's democratic consolidation: the terrorism of boko haram in the northeast, threats of igbo secession in the southeast, lingering ethnic resentments and rebellions in the niger delta, and farmer-pastoralist conflicts. While the pdp unsuccessfully stoked fears about the opposition's ability to stop boko haram's terrorism, the opposition built a winning electoral coalition on economic growth, anti-corruption, and electoral integrity. Drawing on extensive interviews with a number of politicians and generals and civilians and voters, he argues that electoral accountability is essential but insufficient for resolving the representational, distributional, and cultural components of these challenges. 9781403943132S_�NpS�^Contemporary IndiaKatharine Adeney; Andrew WyattMA broad-ranging introduction to politics and society in India, set in a historical and cultural context.

Drawing on detailed analyses of public sector reforms in brazil and argentina, this book challenges conventional wisdom to reveal that incremental changes sequenced over time prove more effective in promoting accountability, increasing transparency, and strengthening institutions than comprehensive overhauls pushed through by political will. Developing an innovative theory that integrates cognitive-psychological insights about decision making with research on institutional change, katherine bersch shows how political and organizational factors can shape reform strategies and information processing. 9780521764063ZQ>mT��v�?e�l T��N�l�_IN�RPartisan Bonds4Political Reputations and Legislative AccountabilityJeffrey D. Grynaviski�Political scientists have long painted American voters' dependence on partisan cues at the ballot box as a discouraging consequence of their overall ignorance about politics. Taking on this conventional wisdom, Jeffrey D. Grynaviski advances the provocative theory that voters instead rely on these cues because party brand names provide credible information about how politicians are likely to act in office, despite the weakness of formal party organization in the United States. Among the important empirical implications of his theory, which he carefully supports with rigorous data analysis, are that voter uncertainty about a party's issue positions varies with the level of party unity it exhibits in government, that party preferences in the electorate are strongest among the most certain voters, and that party brand names have meaningful consequences for the electoral strategies of party leaders and individual candidates for office.USD88 9780521697187ZQ>m�P^\��_�VN��VZQ>mOP���v>yO;���Partisan Families?The Social Logic of Bounded Partisanship in Germany and Britain8Zuckerman, Alan S.; Dasovic, Josip; Fitzgerald, JenniferMPeople decide about political parties by taking into account the preferences, values, expectations, and perceptions of their family, friends, colleagues, and neighbours. As most people live with others, members of their households influence each other's political decisions. How and what they think about politics and what they do are the outcomes of social processes. Applyi< ng varied statistical models to data from extensive German and British household surveys, this book shows that wives and husbands influence each other; young adults influence their parents, especially their mothers. Wives and mothers sit at the centre of households: their partisanship influences the partisanship of everyone else, and the others affect them. Politics in households interacts with competition among the political parties to sustain bounded partisanship. 9781108469999S��_��^���V�QbMR�vў�N'Y� m4lKb0lQl���N�TY�NMoral ContagionHBlack Atlantic Sailors, Citizenship, And Diplomacy In Antebellum AmericaMichael A. SchoeppneruBetween 1822 and 1857, eight southern states barred the ingress of all free black maritime workers. According to lawmakers, they carried a 'moral contagion' of abolitionism and black autonomy that could be transmitted to local slaves. Those seamen who arrived in southern ports in violation of the laws faced incarceration, corporal punishment, an incipient form of convict leasing, and even punitive enslavement. The sailors, their captains, abolitionists, and british diplomatic agents protested this treatment. They wrote letters, published tracts, cajoled elected officials, pleaded with southern officials, and litigated in state and federal courts. By deploying a progressive and sweeping notion of national citizenship - one that guaranteed a number of rights against state regulation - they exposed the ambiguity and potential power of national citizenship as a legal category.USD59.99 9781108472531 Le�N�>y�N�ZSO�YUO�gS��V Frenemies"How Social Media Polarizes America Jaime SettleMUsing Facebook makes Americans psychologically polarized: negatively judging and stereotyping those people with whom they disagree about politics.

Ornit Shani's book examines the rise of Hindu nationalism, asking why distinct groups of Hindus, deeply divided by caste, mobilised on the basis of unitary Hindu nationalism, and why the Hindu nationalist rhetoric about the threat of the impoverished Muslim minority was so persuasive to the Hindu majority. Using evidence from communal violence in Gujarat, Shani argues that the growth of communalism was not simply a result of Hindu-Muslim antagonisms, but was driven by intensifying tensions among Hindus, nurtured by changes in the relations between castes and associated state policies. These, in turn, were frequently displaced onto Muslims, thus enabling caste conflicts to develop. 9781107037090^�V;NINNl�e;NIN?e�l��lpQ�^�V�v�S�klЏ�R-Imperial Rule and the Politics of Nationalism*Anti-Colonial Protest in the French EmpireAdria K. Lawrence`During the first half of the twentieth century, movements seeking political equality emerged in France's overseas territories. Within twenty years, they were replaced by movements for national independence in the majority of French colonies, protectorates, and mandates. In this pathbreaking study of the decolonization era, Adria Lawrence asks why elites in French colonies shifted from demands for egalitarian and democratic reforms to calls for independent statehood, and why mass mobilization for independence emerged where and when it did. Lawrence shows that nationalist discourses became dominant as a consequence of the failure of the reform agenda. Where political rights were granted, colonial subjects opted for further integration and reform. Contrary to conventional accounts, nationalism was not the only or even the primary form of anti-colonialism. 9781108472012%��Δ�sg�[^m�m�v`S����_ g0�klS�T^�VT;N6R�1544t^-1550t^ � The Tudor Occupation Of Boulogne7Conquest, Colonisation And Imperial Monarchy, 1544 1550 Neil Murphy�In 1544, henry viii led the largest army then ever raised by an english monarch to invade france. This book investigates the consequences of this action by examining the devastating impact of warfare on the native population, the methods the english used to impose their rule on the region (from the use of cartography to the construction of fortifications), as well as the development of english colonial rule in france. As murphy explores the significance of this major financial and military commitment by the tudor monarchy, he situates the developments within the wider context of english actions in ireland and scotland during the mid-sixteenth century. Rather than consider the plantations established in the mid-sixteenth century ireland as the 'laboratory' for a new form of empire, this book argues that they should be viewed along with the boulogne�venture as the english crown's final attempt to establish colonies through the use of state resources alone. 9781108419963�OW�e�veRJR?e�lf[��N�S)�VSN�R�R�R���y'The Politics Of Unfree Labour In Russia&Human Trafficking And Labour Migration Buckley MaryDHow, and why, did human trafficking out of russia escalate at the beginning of the twenty-first century? why did some labour migrants from uzbekistan, tajikistan and kyrgyzstan find happy work situations in russia whereas others became trapped in forced labour? this book focuses on human trafficking out of the russian federation since the collapse of the soviet state and on labour migration into it from central asia, and on some internal movement.

It focuses on the causes and consequences of two aspects of American identity: how people define being American and whether people think of themselves primarily as American rather than as members of a panethnic or national origin group. Importantly, the book evaluates the claim  made by scholars and pundits alike  that all Americans should prioritize their American identity instead of an ethnic or national origin identity. It finds that national identity within American democracy can be a blessing or a curse. It can enhance participation, trust, and obligation. But it can be a curse when perceptions of deviation lead to threat and resentment. It can also be a curse for minorities who are attached to their American identity but also perceive discrimination. 9780198835684�SU\-N�V�[�vYe��?e�l:�Nf[!h0Rf[`N1The Politics Of Education In Developing CountriesFrom Schooling To LearningHickey, Sam; Hossain, Naomi5This book focuses on how politics shapes the capacit< y and commitment of elites to tackle the learning crisis in six developing countries.

Taking to task historical treatments of the Radical Right for their failure to specify the conditions and dynamics attending its emergence, and faulting the historical myopia of contemporary electoral and party-centric accounts of the Front National, it tries to explain the Radical Right's continuing appeal by relating the socio-structural outcomes of the processes of industrialization and democratization in France to the persistence of economically and politically illiberal groups within French society. Specifically, the book argues that, as a result of the country's protracted and uneven experience of industrialization and urbanization, significant pre- or anti-modern social classes, which remained functionally ill-adapted and culturally ill-disposed to industrial capitalism and liberal democracy, subsisted late into its development. 9781107009523^�l;N?eCg-N�vlO/ec��O�V�N�v‰�p�SS*Popular Support For An Undemocratic RegimeThe Changing Views of Russians Richard RoseqA unique study of how popular support can grow when governors reject democracy and create an undemocratic regime. 9780367219451^�2m�Q+��v�~Nml��W�Y�~�e�l7Economic Transformation For Poverty Reduction In AfricaA Multidimensional ApproachAlmas Heshmati This book is an edited volume which contains empirical studies on determinants of poverty and its reduction in africa.

Drawing from more than 330 interviews and a year and a half of field research, it develops a case study of the international intervention during the Democratic Republic of the Congo s unsuccessful transition from war to peace and democracy (2003 2006). Grassroots rivalries over land, resources, and political power motivated widespread violence. However, a dominant peacebuilding culture shaped the intervention strategy in a way that precluded action on local conflicts, ultimately dooming the international efforts to end the deadliest conflict since World War II. Most international actors interpreted continued fighting as the consequence of national and regional tensions alone. UN staff and diplomats viewed intervention at the macro levels as their only legitimate responsibility. 9780195384680*N'`N�SOl;N Individuality and Mass Democracy Zakaras, Alex GBP48.9833 9780691180427lQlNf[�y�S_�N^�2mNZf�kl;NIN�vW��NKCitizen And Subject: Contemporary Africa And The Legacy Of Late ColonialismMahmood MamdanidIn analyzing the obstacles to democratization in post- independence africa, mahmood mamdani offers a bold, insightful account of colonialism's legacy--a bifurcated power that mediated racial domination through tribally organized local authorities, reproducing racial identity in citizens and ethnic identity in subjects. Many writers have understood colonial rule as either "direct" (french) or "indirect" (british), with a third variant--apartheid--as exceptional. This benign terminology, mamdani shows, masks the fact that these were actually variants of a despotism. While direct rule denied rights to subjects on racial grounds, indirect rule incorporated them into a "customary" mode of rule, with state-appointed native authorities defining custom. By tapping authoritarian possibilities in culture, and by giving culture an authoritarian bent, indirect rule (decentralized despotism) set the pace for africa; the french followed suit by changing from direct to indirect administration, while apartheid emerged relatively later. Apartheid, mamdani shows, was actually the generic form of the colonial state in africa. 9780521851695 qQ�N;NIN�Tl;N�v�Q�s(Communism and the Emergence of Democracy Harald Wydra�Before democracy becomes an institutionalised form of political authority, the rupture with authoritarian forms of power causes deep uncertainty about power and outcomes. This book connects the study of democratisation in eastern Europe and Russia to the emergence and crisis of communism. Wydra argues that the communist past is not simply a legacy but needs to be seen as a social organism in gestation, where critical events produce new expectations, memories, and symbols that influence meanings of democracy. By examining a series of pivotal historical events, he shows that democratisation is not just a matter of institutional design, but rather a matter of consciousness and leadership under conditions of extreme and traumatic incivility. Rather than adopting the opposition between non-democratic and democratic, Wydra argues that the communist experience must be central to the study of the emergence and nature of democracy in (post-) communist countries. 9781845196264�O���e_0R�]�)R�NTeimosa !Rights Of Way To Bras�< lia Teimosa#The Politics Of Squatter SettlementCharles Fortin�The site of Recife s Bras�lia Teimosa favela emerged as a flash point of economic and political interests in the 1930s and the scene of subsequent strife into the 1980s.

House races across the country. Christian conservative activists worked diligently to nominate friendly candidates and get them elected. These moral victories transformed the republican house delegation into one that was much more culturally conservative and created a new republican majority. In moral victories, marty cohen seeks to chronicle this significant political phenomenon and place it in both historical and theoretical contexts. This is a story not only of the growing importance of moral issues but also of the way party coalitions change, and how this particular change began with religiously motivated activists determined to ban abortion, thwart gay rights, and restore traditional morality to the country.Beginning in the early 1980s, and steadily building from that point, religious activists backed like-minded candidates. 9781108420464�V�[3z�[  �QQgT��v(W�d�T�b�NWS^�2m0W:S:NUO͑��#Coups, Rivals, And The Modern State1Why Rural Coalitions Matter In Sub-saharan AfricaRabinowitz Beth S.OState development in africa is risky, even life-threatening.

Aei PressfFrom any coherent policy perspective, agricultural policy in the united states is in total disarray. Not surprisingly, persistent and pervasive rent-seeking by well-funded lobbies explains many of the complex and often internally inconsistent federal programs that fall under the umbrella of us agricultural policy. This two-volume examination of us agricultural policies includes analyses on the federal crop insurance program, the sugar program, constraints on domestic production, and policy-mandated price discrimination. Those subsidy programs and other forms of support are deliberately structured to funnel the vast majority of their benefits to large farm businesses and, in the case of agricultural insurance, an entire segment of the insurance industry that would not otherwise exist. They do nothing to alleviate rural poverty and in most cases encourage farm and other agricultural businesses to waste some of society's scarce resources. Some federal programs do provide benefits for society as a whole. However, collusion among lobbies with competing interests has caused many of those programs to be inefficient. 9781108429146'�^0^:WNT;N6R�wm~nT\O�YXTONS_�N-NN�v?e�l�~NmMoney, Markets, And MonarchiesVThe Gulf Cooperation Council And The Political Economy Of The Contemporary Middle East Adam HaniehBridging debates across political economy, critical geography, and middle east studies, this original perspective on the gulf monarchies and their pivotal role in the middle east will provide essential insights to anyone interested in understanding the contemporary region. 9781316513309�R�~�vl;N�^�2m�W^�v�e8^?e�lDemocracy In Ghana!Everyday Politics In Urban AfricaJeffrey W.

The analysis emphasizes the erosion of presidential approval resulting from corruption and unpopular policies, the formation of hostile coalitions in Congress, and the role of investigative journalism.USD118 9780521517355�b�Am>e?e�lf[&The Politics of Exile in Latin AmericaSznajder, Mario-The Politics of Exile in Latin America addresses exile as a major mechanism of institutional exclusion used by all types of governments in the region against their own citizens, while they often provided asylum to aliens fleeing persecution. The work is the first systematic analysis of Latin American exile on a continental and transnational basis and on a long-term perspective. It traces variations in the saliency of exile among different expelling and receiving countries; across different periods; with different paths of exile, both elite and massive; and under authoritarian and democratic contexts. The project integrates theoretical hindsight and empirical findings, analyzing the importance of exile as a recent and contemporary phenomenon, while reaching back to its origins and phases of development. 9780521130332 �b��]�?e�^�b�RN N��$Leftist Governments In Latin AmericaSuccesses and Shortcomings Kurt WeylandFCan Latin America s  new left stimulate economic development, enhance social equity, and deepen democracy in spite of the economic and political constraints it faces? This is the first book to systematically examine the policies and performance of the left-wing governments that have risen to power in Latin America during the last decade. Featuring thorough studies of Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, and Venezuela by renowned experts, the volume argues that moderate leftist governments have attained greater, more sustainable success than their more radical, contestatory counterparts. Moderate governments in Brazil and Chile have generated solid economic growth, reduced poverty and inequality, and created innovative and fiscally sound social programs, while respecting the fundamental principles of market economics and liberal democracy. 9781536145847T���ZQ�N�eƖThe Federalist Papers.Alexander Hamilton, John Jay And James Madison�The federalist papers, originally published in 1788, is a series of 85 articles written by alexander hamilton, james madison, and john jay.

Reynolds{During the nineteenth century American political parties selected their candidates for elective offices in conventions. Around 1910 most states established a system of direct primaries whereby the voters selected their parties' nominees for public office. The current study examines the transition from the indirect to the direct primary, as well as its implications for American politics. It offers a systematic analysis of the convention system in four states (New Jersey, Michigan, Colorado, and California) and the legislative history of the regulation of political parties during the Progressive Era. It argues that the major political parties themselves were chiefly responsible for doing away with the nominating convention. Candidates played a pivotal role in inaugurating the new nominating system as they became more open and aggressive in pursuit of their parties' nominations. 9780521192811��V?eZQ�v TS 1880 1896<The Nationalization Of American Political Parties, 1880 1896Klinghard, Daniel7This book investigates the creation of the first truly nationalized party organizations in the United States in the late nineteenth century, an innovation that reversed the parties' traditional privileging of state and local interests in nominating campaigns and the conduct of national campaigns. Between 1880 and 1896, party elites crafted a defense of these national organizations that charted the theoretical parameters of American party development into the twentieth century. With empowered national committees and a new understanding of the parties' role in the political system, national party leaders dominated American politics in new ways, renewed the parties' legitimacy in an increasingly pluralistic and nationalized political environment, and thus maintained their relevance throughout the twentieth century. 9781138353039��V?e�^�?e�l�SU\N6R�^�S��American Government.Political Development And Institutional Change Cal Jillson�How politics in america works today, how it got that way, and how it s likely to change through reform these are the themes that pervade every chapter of cal jillson s highly lauded american government: political development and institutional change.

Southern nation examines how southern members of congress shaped national public policy and american institutions from reconstruction to the new deal--and along the way remade the region and the nation in their own image. The central paradox of southern politics was how such a highly diverse region could be transformed into a coherent and unified bloc-a veritable nation within a nation that exercised extraordinary influence in politics.

Combined with jihadist influences that entered from the South and East by way of Dagestan, these events culminated in the second Russo-Chechen war (1999-2009). Chechnya transformed both the Russian military and the presidency of Vladimir Putin. Beginning in 2000, Putin s Chechenization strategy had unforeseen and controversial results for the entire Russian Federation.

After the fall of its authoritarian regime in 1998, Indonesia pursued an unusual course of democratization. It was insider-dominated and gradualist and it involved free elections before a lengthy process of constitutional reform. At the end of the process, Indonesia's amended constitution was essentially a new and thoroughly democratic document. By proceeding as they did, the Indonesians averted the conflict that would have arisen between adherents of the old constitution and proponents of radical, immediate reform. Donald L. Horowitz documents the decisions that gave rise to this distinctive constitutional process. He then traces the effects of the new institutions on Indonesian politics and discusses their shortcomings and their achievements in steering Indonesia away from the dangers of polarization and violence. 9781138485549��V1�'k����Discourses Of BrexitVeronika Koller$Discourses of brexit provides a kaleidoscope of insights into how discourse influenced the outcome of the eu referendum and what discourses have sprung up as a result of it.

When movements anchor parties provides a bold new interpretation of american electoral history by examining five prominent movements and their relationships with political parties. Taking readers from the civil war to today, daniel schlozman shows how two powerful alliances--those of organized labor and democrats in the new deal, and the christian right and republicans since the 1970s--have defined the basic priorities of parties and shaped the available alternatives in national politics. He traces how they diverged sharply from three other major social movements that failed to establish a place inside political parties--the abolitionists following the civil war, the populists in the 1890s, and the antiwar movement in the 1960s and 1970s.USD22.95 9781138605558 ���[q_�T�vibU\�lQ�vR�eScaling ImpactInnovation For The Public Good Robert Mclean�Scaling impact introduces a new and practical approach to scaling the positive impacts of research and innovation. Inspired by leading scientific and entrepreneurial innovators from across africa, asia, the caribbean, latin america, and the middle east, this book presents a synthesis of unrivalled diversity and grounded ingenuity. The result is a different perspective on how to achieve impact that matters, and an important challenge to the predominant more-is-better paradigm of scaling. For organisations and individuals working to change the world for the better, scaling impact is a common goal and a well-founded aim. The world is changing rapidly, and seemingly intractable problems like environmental degradation or accelerating inequality press us to do better for each other and our environment as a global community. Challenges like these appear to demand a significant scale of action, and here the authors argue that a more creative and critical approach to scaling is both possible and essential. To encourage uptake and co-development, the authors present actionable principles that can help organisations and innovators design, manage, and evaluate scaling strategies. 9781138299030?eV{l��yNĉ�Am��p�T�f[�yN�k���v�e�l$Policy Transfer And Norm Circulation5Towards An Interdisciplinary And Comparative Approach1Edited By Laure Delcour And Elsa Tulmets-gerhardt�This book brings together various fields in the humanities and social sciences to offer a renewed analysis of policy transfer and norm circulation.

Rather than focus on centralizing responsibility, with commands emanating from the top, author william lester offers readers a new paradigm, with step by step instructions on placing transformative and collaborative systems front and center, in order to develop a sustainable disaster response system - one that is not centered on a specific leader or time, but instead focuses on the changes needed to build a system that can outlive any one leader. Implementation plans to move from concept into workable, effective strategies that can be used immediately are included.GBP44.99 9780367137588��*�u0W��l�cŖ�c0R NT\O;NIN�Tracing GandhiSatyarthi To SatyagrahiSamir BanerjeeHThis book traces the journey of mahatma gandhi, from being a simple and truth-seeking human being, a satyarthi, to a committed, conscious and social human being, a satyagrahi.

To date, no single book has assessed the manifold impacts that the politics of chavismo had on the cultural sphere. The politics of culture in the ch�vez era maps key shifts and trends in cultural policies and political cultures that accompanied ch�vezs four presidential terms (1999- 2013), situating these in the regional context of pink tide politics. The chapters in this ambitious, interdisciplinary volume offer a range of perspectives, from broad overviews of cultural and media policy, to close readings of varied aesthetic manifestations. Encompassing conventional cultural products, such as recent film and literature, as well as engagements with cultural imaginaries that play out in political protest, urban culture, and grassroots heritage projects, the authors examine how individual and collective imaginaries were negotiated and formed within, alongside or against the state with the advancement of the bolivarian revolution.USD34.95 9780815383543�����V�NCg?eV{��^�~�v�`��&Understanding U.S. Human Rights PolicyThe Paradox Continues Clair ApodacaFHuman rights and us foreign policy provides a comprehensive historical overview and analysis of the complex and often vexing problem of understanding the formation of u.S. Human rights policy. The proper place of human rights and fundamental freedoms in u.S. Foreign policy has long been debated among scholars, politicians, and the american public. The history of united states human rights policy unfolds as a series of prevarications that are the result of presidential preferences, along with the conflict and cooperation among bureaucratic actors. Since the inception of u.S. Human rights policy, presidents have attempted to tell only part of the truth or to reformulate the truth by redefining the meaning of the terms human rights, democracy, or torture, for example. In this way, human rights policy has been about prevarication. 9781138041851 ȏKQ\�Wё�?e�l�eS Michael RoginThe Culture Of Politics(Edited By Alyson Cole And George Shulman 9781469646831�~�bmIg�w�l�[��y�e ��b6R�TLAPD�vtQw�Policing Los Angeles*Race, Resistance, And The Rise Of The LapdMax Felker-kantor�When the los angeles neighborhood of watts erupted in violent protest in august 1965, the uprising drew strength from decades of pent-up frustration with employment discrimination, residential segregation, and poverty.

SchreiberUniversity Of Minnesota Press�As debates over immigration increasingly have become flashpoints of political contention in the united states, a variety of advocacy groups, social service organizations, filmmakers, and artists have provided undocumented migrants with the tools and training to document their own experiences. In the undocumented everyday, rebecca m. Schreiber examines the significance of self-representation by undocumented mexican and central american migrants, arguing that by centering their own subjectivity and presence through their use of documentary media, these migrants are effectively challenging intensified regimes of state surveillance and liberal strategies that emphasize visibility as a form of empowerment and inclusion. Schreiber explores documentation as both an aesthetic practice based on the visual conventions of social realism and a state-administered means of identification and control. As schreiber shows, by visualizing new ways of belonging not necessarily defined by citizenship, these migrants are remaking documentary media, combining formal visual strategies with those of amateur photography and performative elements to create a mixed-genre aesthetic.GBP92 9781469646411!�bN�2mSaSWeg�~�] �SaSWeg�~�]�bNԈ�yl�~�S��eS�e���v�eN�NiLatinx North Carolina, A Revised And Updated Edition Of The Latino Migration Experience In North Carolina New Roots In The Old North State Hannah Gill1The University Of North Carolina Press(unc Press)=Now thoroughly updated and revised-with a new chapter on the dreamer movement and the deferred action for childhood arrivals program (daca)-this book offers north carolinians a better understanding of their latinx neighbors, illuminating rather than enflaming debates on immigration. In the midst of a tumultuous political environment, north carolina continues to feature significant in-migration of mexicans and latin americans from both outside and inside the united states.

The south and south east of asia has experienced various forms of extremism and violence for years, with a growing demand for academic or policy-relevant work that will enhance understanding of the reasons behind this. The violent challenges in this area have taken a variety of forms and are often exacerbated by lack of governance, tie-ins to existing regional criminal networks, colonial legacies, and a presence of international terrorist movements. Written by experts with field experience, this volume analyses the key element of successful response as the appropriate application of doctrine following nuanced assessment of threat. In practice, this often means counterinsurgency doctrine. The essays also analyse the need for irregular war practitioners to systematically examine the changing character of intrastate violent irregular challenges. The volume fills a gap in the understanding of patterns, drivers, organisations, and ideologies of various insurgent and terrorist groups and state responses. 9780198804109S_�N�[hQxvzContemporary Security Studies!Alan Collins (swansea University)JWith in-depth coverage of a wide range of issues, from terrorism, inter-state conflict, and nuclear deterrence to environmental security, health, and organized crime, contemporary security studies is the definitive introduction to security studies.

Terrorism occupies a predominant space within contemporary political debate across all european countries. Recent attacks in europe have raised many questions about the status of counter-terrorism structures within european countries, revealing a wide range of practical as well as discursive security implications. This work provides an original contribution to the understanding of counterterrorism by asking how values, norms and a shared sense of identity matter in policy dynamics. It explores and assesses which cultural elements are relevant for the fight against terrorism and investigates the impact which these elements can have on practical approaches to terrorism. Despite the current attention to terrorist attacks in europe, the cases of france and italy in counterterrorism affairs are particularly overlooked by the existing literature; this book analyses, questions and examines the strategy of these two countries through the instruments offered by the culturalist approaches to strategy. 9781498566070 ^�8^ĉ���n�vhQtq_�T0Global Impact Of Unconventional Energy ResourcesManochehr Dorraj; Ken Morgan�The chapters in this volume represent the latest thinking on the development and exploration of unconventional energy resources in the u.S., canada, australia, europe, russia, asia pacific, middle east, latin america, and africa and shed light on its potential and future prospects in these respective regions. The diversity of thinking about the "shale revolution" is also evident in our case studies. Throughout many countries in europe for example, there is a strong preference for investment in renewable sources of energy over the fossil fuels. In addition to environmental concerns, the falling price of renewables, have also made them more attractive financially. Consequently, global investment in renewables is outpacing that of fossil fuel two to one. Watching this trend, in 2017, the chinese government has pledged to invest $360 billion on renewable energy. This would make china the largest investor in development of renewables in the world. 97801908400999e�Q�S�[�:bgRS\O:N�l�V�S�N�S)�VSЏ�R�vxvzRewriting The VictimADramatization As Research In Thailand's Anti-trafficking MovementKamler, Erin M.�In this book, erin kamler brings together feminist international research with the writing, composing, and production of an original musical designed to critique the discourse about the trafficking of women in thailand.

Bringing together experts from fields including history, political science and international relations, architecture, historical sociology, digital humanities and information studies, international organizations and global civil society is the first scholarly book to cover both the uia's early years and its more recent past. Key issues explored include the uia's importance for the field of scientific internationalism, the relations between the uia and other international organizations, and the changing position of the uia when facing geopolitical challenges such as totalitarianism, the world wars and the cold war. 9781107181861�Ts^�vs^a�Cg�R��V�[r^��荃Xv^-�Balancing Power Without Weapons=State Intervention Into Cross-border Mergers And AcquisitionsAshley Thomas LenihanDWhy do states block some foreign direct investment on national security grounds even when it originates from within their own security community? government intervention into foreign takeovers of domestic companies is on the rise, and many observers find it surprising that states engage in such behaviour not only against their strategic and military competitors, but also against their closest allies. Ashley lenihan argues that such puzzling behaviour can be explained by recognizing that states use intervention into cross-border mergers and acquisitions as a tool of statecraft to internally balance the economic and military power of other states through non-military means. This book tests this theory using quantitative and qualitative analysis of transactions in the united states, russia, china, and fifteen european union states. It deepens our understanding of why states intervene in foreign takeovers, the relationship between interdependence and conflict, the limits of globalization, and how states are balancing power in new ways.

While illicit nuclear trade can never be stopped completely, effective steps to block illicit purchases of nuclear technology have sometimes succeeded in slowing nuclear weapons programs and increasing their costs, giving diplomacy more chance to work. 9780415180207�Nf�VE�sQ�|�[�k$International Relations Then And Now$Origins And Trends In InterpretationA.

As states and other international associations used scientific ideas to solve problems, they slowly reconfigured ideas about how the world works, humanity's place in the universe, and the meaning of progress. 9781506346922荊��VLu��N< ASNN�~�v�VE�f[uCrossing Borders*International Studies For The 21st Century&Harry I.

Michael barnett argues that it all begins with the political identity of american jews. As jews, they are committed to their people's survival. As americans, they identify with, and believe their survival depends on, the american principles of liberalism, religious freedom, and pluralism. This identity and search for inclusion form a political theology of prophetic judaism that emphasizes the historic mission of jews to help create a world of peace and justice. The political theology of prophetic judaism accounts for two enduring features of the foreign policy beliefs of american jews. They exhibit a cosmopolitan sensibility, advocating on behalf of human rights, humanitarianism, and international law and organizations. They also are suspicious of nationalism--including their own. 9781788315128#�b4x�N�e�N�vb�N�TY�N:�g\�e��e�V\yr5r�X �aS�e�R���T'k2m�vCg�Rs^a�'War And Diplomacy In The Napoleonic EraCSir Charles Stewart, Castlereagh And The Balance Of Power In Europe Reider Payne�The lives and careers of sir charles stewart and his brother lord castlereagh take in a grand stage, from britain and ireland to the kingdoms and empires of western and central europe. Throughout his life stewart played a key role in shaping europe: his is a regency drama beyond anything imagined by jane austen: warfare, diplomacy, affairs, royal scandal, a romantic and brilliant marriage, and a brother s suicide. Stewart was at the heart of some of history s greatest events which took him from the bloodiest actions of the napoleonic wars to the palaces of europe s ruling dynasties. For an all too brief period, stewart blazed across the battlefields and c< hancelleries of europe, enjoying a meteoric rise to the highest positions and influence, in a career indelibly linked to his brother s and one which is virtually unique. Stewart even found time to enjoy his share of scandal, from affairs and parties in vienna to running a spy network which aimed to charge a princess of wales with adultery. 9780415539432��l0�[hQN'k�v)Refugees, Security And The European Union Sarah Leonard�This book analyses the extent and the modalities of the securitization of asylum-seekers and refugees in the eu. The book argues that the development of the eu asylum policy, far from 'securitizing' asylum-seekers and refugees, has led to the strengthening and codification of several rights for these two categories of persons. However, the securitization of terrorism and the links that have been constructed between asylum, irregular migration and terrorism in the wake of the various terrorist attacks that have taken place in europe in the last few years have had a significant impact on the ability of asylum-seekers to gain access to asylum systems in the eu. From a theoretical point of view, the book develops an original analytical framework that draws upon and further develops security studies - more precisely securitization theory - by connecting it to the literature on policy venues and venue-shopping. It therefore makes a significant contribution to the debates on both securitization and migration. 9781626377677 �QbT�vCg�RR�NNCg�RsQ�|1Power Sharing And Power Relations After Civil WarCaroline A.

Mainstream international relations continues to assume that the world is governed by calculable risk based on estimates of power, despite repeatedly being surprised by unexpected change. This ground breaking work departs from existing definitions of power that focus on the actors' evolving ability to exercise control in situations of calculable risk. It introduces the concept of 'protean power', which focuses on the actors' agility as they adapt to situations of uncertainty. Protean power uses twelve real world case studies to examine how the dynamics of protean and control power can be tracked in the relations among different state and non-state actors, operating in diverse sites, stretching from local to global, in both times of relative normalcy and moments of crisis. 9781538115220 hQtSN�eS�hQt�mBg)Globalization And Culture: Global MelangeJan Nederveen Pieterse�Now updated with new chapters on culture and on populism, this seminal text disputes the view that we are experiencing a "clash of civilizations" as well as the idea that globalization leads to cultural homogenization. Instead, jan nederveen pieterse argues that we are witnessing the formation of a global melange culture through processes of cultural mixing or hybridization. From this perspective on globalization, conflict may be mitigated and identity preserved, albeit transformed. In a new chapter on china, the author focuses on the key issue of agency and power in hybridization. Throughout, the book offers a comprehensive treatment of hybridization arguments, and in discussing globalization and culture, problematizes the meaning of culture. This historically deep and geographically wide approach to globalization is essential reading as we face the increasing spread of conflicts bred by cultural misunderstanding.USD79 9780748634989 hQtl;N�NLu�{tHh�O1Global Democracy: The Case for a World GovernmentThe Case for a World GovernmentTorbjorn TannsjoIs world government the answer to pressing global issues such as war, global injustices and environmental problems?

This book proves not only the existence of settlements but also the robustness of the inefficiency puzzle. In addition to examining existing agreements, the model used by spaniel serves as a baseline for modeling other concerns about nuclear weapons. 9781786607492Y�N?eV{-N�v�Nm�|�T�l�_;Murder In M�rida, 1792 : Violence, Factions, And The Law-clYDuring the summer of 1792, a man wearing the rough garb of a vaquero stepped out of the night shadows of Merida, Yucatan, and murdered the province's top royal official, don Lucas de Galvez.

In other collections of essays, stephan kuttner dealt with the development of canon law in the two centuries that followed the publication of gratian's decretum, and the ideas that this engendered; here he is concerned with the foundations upon which all these later efforts were based. The work of gratian is, of course, the principal focus, but the studies then follow the spread of the teaching of law, from its inception at bologna in the 1140s to its appearance soon after in other centres of learning in the west. With a quarter of the volume consisting of additional notes and extensive indexes, it makes a contribution of the greatest importance to the historical study of canon law. 9780198821519 �]NL��R�lN�]O���S8The Law Of Industrial Action And Trade Union RecognitionEBowers Qc, John; Duggan Qc, Michael; Reade Qc, David; Apps, Katherine�The third edition of the law of industrial action and trade union recognition provides a new, up-to-date, and thorough analysis of this technical area of law 9780198829997�VE��rj�v�[�e�:t��0�e�l�T��nc$Perpetrators Of International CrimesTheories, Methods, And Evidence6Smeulers, Alette; Weerdesteijn, Maartje; Hola, Barbora\This edited collection is the first full assessment of the new field of perpetrator studies, which examines why individuals commit mass atrocities such as genocide or terrorism.

The first dimension is structural, economic and labour market driven, whereby age is used to allocate a range of rights, obligations and benefits within society. The second is the social justice and equality dimension, in which age is understood as an aspect of individual identity that is worthy of protection against indignity or detriment. The review then considers the law on age discrimination in a number of jurisdictions, the eu law, the uk, sweden, usa, canada and south africa, and assesses the extent to which the underpinning questions explain the developing case law. 9780199689408�k���NCg�lComparative Human Rights LawpSandra Fredman, Fba (rhodes Professor Of The Laws Of The British Commonwealth And The Usa, University Of Oxford)�Courts in different jurisdictions face similar human rights questions.

On the one hand, the shared language of human rights suggests that there should be similar solutions to comparable problems. On the other hand, there are important differences. Constitutional texts are worded differently; courts have differing relationships with the legislature; and there are divergences in socio-economic development, politics, and history. Nevertheless, there is a growing transnational conversation between courts, with cases in one jurisdiction being cited in others.

Increasingly, policymakers in china have come to realize t< hat government alone cannot adequately prevent or defray climate-related disaster risks. This book contends that a better way to manage catastrophe risk in china is through private insurance rather than directly through the chinese government. In addition, private insurance could function as a substitute for, or complement to, government regulation of catastrophe risks by causing policyholders to take greater precautions to reduce climate change risks. This book s unique contribution lies in explaining how private sector insurance could be harnessed to better protect china from climate change risks, addressing the shortcomings in china s private sector when it comes to the incentive and capacity to provide catastrophe insurance. 9781538112045�S��b� z�^�T�[��Senate Procedure And PracticeMartin B.

But this was not always an established concept. Among the first empirical pieces to articulate this theory was david engel's 1984 article, 'the oven bird's song: insiders, outsiders, and personal injuries in an american community'. Over thirty years later, this article is now widely considered to be part of the law and society canon.

What are the legitimate conditions of blame and punishment? what values are at the heart of constitutional protections against discrimination or infringements of free speech? must judges interpret statutes and constitutional provisions in ways that comport with the intentions of those who wrote them? can the law obligate us to violate the demands of morality, and when can the law allow the rights of the few to be violated for the good of the many? this collection of essays by world-renowned legal theorists is for anyone interested in foundational questions about the law's authority, the conditions of its fair application to citizens, and the moral justifications of the rights, duties, and permissions that it protects. 9781138300408�l�_0IN�R0>y:SLaw, Obligation, Community*Edited By Daniel Matthews And Scott VeitchPThis book re-opens the question of obligation from not only legal but also ethical, sociological and political perspectives.

The law of equity is a unique junction where doctrinal private law, moral theory, and social perceptions of justice meet. Against critics who believe equity to be at odds with the ideal of the rule of law, the book argues that it promotes 'accountability correspondence' and offers a method of tallying legal liability under the common law with circumstantial moral duties. Equity acts where the common law'< s fixation with clear, prospective, and general rules leads to a dangerous schism between the defendant's moral accountability in the circumstances and her legal liability to the claimant. It employs a morally sensitive and flexible method of legal reasoning that enables judges to set aside common law rights where necessary. Equity should be viewed as a pivotal body of law which seeks to align people's legal rights with their moral duties to other members of the community. This book offers a study of both the specific instances in which equity amends the legal rights of parties so that they better correspond to their moral duties, and the general philosophical basis of this unique area of law. 9780190865214ў�N:^�Ԉ��V�N�YUOċ�N��V�v�l�_6R�^Black And Blue1How African Americans Judge The U.S. Legal System!Gibson, James L.; Nelson, MichaelA crisis of legitimacy exists between african americans and american legal institutions.

Administrative entities such as commissions, agencies, councils, authorities or `independent agencies' as they are sometimes known, are relatively autonomous from majoritarian democratic control and by their institutional design fall outside the classical triad of powers or branches of government. They may even fall outside the confines of the nation state itself as with the eu commission. The book is divided into theoretical-historical and empirical parts. Part i approaches the phenomenon through the rigorous normative conceptual lens of constitutionalism and constitutional law, questioning the implications of political neutrality on inherited normative categories, both at national and supranational level. 9781107163041͑QX�l�_Ye��  4N�^Ye���['k2m�l�_Yef[�[���v9ei�Reinventing Legal EducationNHow Clinical Education Is Reforming The Teaching And Practice Of Law In EuropeAlemanno Alberto�European legal teaching - historically formalistic, doctrinal, hierarchical, and passive - is coming under increasing pressure to reimagine itself as pragmatic, po< licy-aware, and action-oriented.

Traditional claims have included objections to compulsory military draft and to the provision of abortions. Contemporary claims include objections to anti-discrimination law by providers of public services, such as bakers and b&b hoteliers, who do not want to serve same-sex couples. The book investigates the practice, both traditional and contemporary, from three distinct perspectives: theoretical, doctrinal (with special emphasis on uk, canadian and us law) and comparative.

Against this backdrop, north carolina had long stood out as a prolific executioner with harsh mandatory sentencing statutes. But as the state�sought to remake its image as modern and business-progressive in the early twentieth century, the question of execution preoccupied for lawmakers, reformers, and state boosters alike.

in this book, seth kotch recounts the history of the death penalty in north carolina, from its colonial origins to the present. He tracks the attempts to reform and sanitize the administration of death in a state as dedicated to its image as it was to rigid racial hierarchies. Through this lens, lethal state helps explain not only americans' deep and growing uncertainty about the death penalty but also their commitment to it.

kotch argues that jim crow justice continued to reign in the guise of a modernizing, orderly state, and offers essential insight into the relationship between race, violence, and power�in north carolina. 9781469652221ُ̑�l g`�`� T�Y KQ�R�s�N'`�v'`+R ��`Z�Tb_b No Mercy Here8Gender, Punishment, And The Making Of Jim Crow Modernity Haley, SarahIn the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries imprisoned black women faced wrenching forms of gendered racial terror and heinous structures of economic exploitation. Subjugated as convict laborers and forced to serve additional time as domestic workers�before they were allowed their freedom, black women faced a pitiless system of violence, terror, and debasement. Drawing upon black feminist criticism and a diverse array of archival materials, sarah haley uncovers imprisoned women's brutalization in local, county, and state convict labor systems, while also illuminating the prisoners' acts of resistance and sabotage, challenging ideologies of racial capitalism and patriarchy and offering alternative conceptions of social and political life.

a landmark history of black women's imprisonment in the south, this book recovers stories of the captivity and punishment of black women to demonstrate how the system of incarceration was crucial to organizing the logics of gender and race, and constructing jim crow modernity. 9780198729020Icdr�VE��N��ĉRc�[�Hr23A Guide To The ICDR International Arbitration Rules5Gusy, Martin F.; Hosking, James M.; Schwarz, Franz T.OUpdated to reflect the 2014 ICDR revision, this is a rule-by-rule commentary on the genesis, interpretation, and application of the ICDR rules.

But that is changing. Whilst they may be complementary mechanisms, international mediation and conciliation are now coming to the fore. Mediation rules that were in disuse gather momentum, and dispute settlement centres are introducing new mediation rules. The european union is encouraging international mediation in both the commercial and investment spheres. The 2019 singapore mediation convention of the united nations commission on international trade law (uncitral) is aiming to ensure enforcement of international commercial settlement agreements resulting from mediation. The first investor-state disputes are mediated under the international bar association (iba) rules. The international centre for settlement of investment disputes (icsid)'s conciliation mechanism is resorted to more often than in the past. The international chamber of commerce (icc) has recently administered its first mediation case based on a bilateral investment treaty, and a new training market on mediation is flourishing. 9781107196643�VE��$R��VE�qQ T)R�v�vsQ�|�ltǏ zInternational NegotiationDA Process Of Relational Governance For International Common InterestEvangelos Raftopoulos�Evangelos raftopoulos explores international negotiation as a structured process of relational governance that generates international common interest between and among international participants and in relation to the international public order. He challenges prescriptive models of negotiation - developed in international relations and positivistic approaches to international law, which artificially separate treaties from negotiation in the name of 'objectivity' - and opens a window for looking at international negotiations from a novel, international law perspective. Using an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates law, philosophy, politics, and linguistics, he proposes a holistic, theoretical model of multilateral international negotiation that not only offers a 'subjective' view of international law in practice but also demonstrates the importance of understanding the horizontal normativity of international ordering. 9780199668267�VE��yl�lInternational Migration LawChetail, VincentWA unique and comprehensive overview on the numerous international rules governing migration, this book brings together and analyses the disparate norms and treaties within international and european law.

It argues that these five treaties have effectively prevented local communities, who bear the brunt of the costs associated with international heritage protection, from having a say in how their heritage is managed. The exclusion of local communities often alienates them not only from international decision-making processes but also from their cultural heritage itself, ultimately meaning that systems put in place for the protection of cultural heritage contribute to its disappearance in the long term. International heritage law for communities adds to existing literature by looking at these unesco treaties not as isolated regimes, but rather as belonging to a discursive continuum on cultural heritage. In doing so, the book focuses on themes that cut across the relevant unesco regimes like the use of expert rule in international heritage law, economics, the relationship between heritage and the environment, among others, rather than the regimes themselves. 9781509921379 irCg�l�s�Nxvz �,{10wS)Modern Studies In Property Law, Volume 10 Ben McfarlaneLThis book contains a collection of papers presented at the twelfth biennial modern studies in property law conference held at university college london in april 2018.

Atmospheres are an ephemeral, yet inescapable, element of our everyday experiential and conceptual environments. They are continually beyond our grasp as they undergo constant transformation. By interrogating atmospheres, this book arrives at new ways of thinking about the relationships between people, space, time and events. This book explores the ways we engage with these affective modes, and the possibilities that researchers, designers and policy-makers must make and intervene with in the world. Chapters propose an approach to atmospheres that is not fixed to certain forms or boundaries.

Professional wrestling's business practices exist at the intersection of bottom-up fan-centric strategies and strict top-down corporate control. Meanwhile, the wrestlers themselves combine aspects of carnival hucksters, actors/actresses, comedians, superheroes, martial artists, or stuntmen, and the narratives consist of everything from social critique to geopolitical allegories, and from soap opera melodramas to stereotyped exploitation. Bringing together the latest scholarship in the field, convergent wrestling analyzes various texts, business practices, and fan activities to explore the commonalities that define professional wrestling and consider how it exists in today's new media ecology. In addition, the book considers the professional wrestling industry from several different angles, from massive multinational conglomerate world wrestling entertainment (wwe) to local indie federations. 9780367111380 Ɖ��8nb-N�v�e,g�eS#Japanese Culture Through VideogamesHutchinson, Rachael 9781138326262�e�RaW�vYCQ�eS;NIN�ۏS�vY7h'`Singapore?s MulticulturalismEvolving DiversityChan Heng Chee�Since independence in 1965, singapore has developed its own unique approach to managing the diversity of race, religion, culture, language, nationality, and age among its citizens. This approach is a consequence of many factors, including its very distinct ethnic makeup compared with its neighbours, its ambitions as a globally oriented city-state, and its small physical size. Each of these factors and many others have presented singapore society with a range of challenges and opportunities, and will in all likelihood continue to do so for the foreseeable future. In the writing of this book, the author team set themselves the task of projecting the impact of current domestic and international social trends into the future, to anticipate what singapore society might look like by around 2040. In doing so, they analyse the particular path that singapore has taken since independence, in comparison with other multicultural societies and with regard to the balance between the necessity of forging a new national identity after british rule and departure from malaysia, and the need to ensure that singapore's ethnic minority populations remain socially enfranchised. 9781138094420 �e�1u;NIN0>yO6�B\�T�ZSONeoliberalism And The MediaEdited By Marian Meyers:This book examines the multiple ways that popular media mainstream and reinforce neoliberal ideology, exposing how they promote neoliberalism?s underlying ideas, values and beliefs so as to naturalize inequality, undercut democracy and contribute to the collapse of social notions of community and the common good. 9781350078673�N2mn�ߘl�e;NINCulinary Nationalism In AsiaMichelle T.

With culinary nationalism defined as a process in flux, opposed to the limited concept of national cuisine, the contributors of this book call for explicit critical comparisons of cases of culinary nationalism within regions, with the intention of recognizing regional patterns of modern culinary development. As a result, the formation of modern cuisine is revealed to be a process that takes place around the world, in different forms and periods, and not exclusive to current eurocentric models.

How do we make sense of how apps like these-and thousands of others-have embedded themselves into our daily routines, permeating the background of ordinary life and standing at-the-ready to be used on our smartphones and tablets? when we look at any single app, it's hard to imagine how such a small piece of software could be particularly notable. But if we look at a collection of them, we see a bigger picture that reveals how the quotidian activities apps encompass are far from banal: connecting with friends (and strangers and enemies), sharing memories (and personally identifying information), making art (and trash), navigating spaces (and reshaping places in the process). 9781138920309 lQqQsQ�|\O:N�`�~�R�R$Public Relations As Emotional LabourTbc Liz Yeomans�This book fills a significant gap in knowledge by presenting a critical-interpretive exploration of the everyday relational work of PR professionals through the lens of emotional labour theory.

In 1930 his atlanta world became a semiweekly, and the following year w. A. Began to implement his vision for a massive newspaper chain based out of atlanta: the southern newspaper syndicate, later dubbed the scott newspaper syndicate. In april 1931 the world had become a triweekly, and its reach began drifting beyond the south.With the grapevine of the black south, thomas aiello offers the first critical history of this influential newspaper syndicate, from its roots in the 1930s through its end in the 1950s. At its heyday, more than 240 papers were associated with the syndicate, making it one of the biggest organs of the black press during the period leading up to the classic civil rights era (1955-68). 9786202314930�R�~�V�[�VfN���i�_N�VfN���SU\=The National Library Concept And Library Development In Ghana Kosi Kedem�The book is divided into four chapters. Chapter one examines the national library concept. Chapter two examines selected case studies of national libraries both in the developed and developing countries. The aim is to find out the process by which they were established; what their organizational structures are like; how they are financed and what functions they perform. Chapter three takes a careful look at general library developments in ghana. It then attempts to seek an answer to the question why the national library could not be established in ghana in the 1960 s despite the well-developed public and university library traditions in ghana. Chapter four is influenced by the findings of the previous three chapters and the feedback from the questionnaires administered. The gist of the recommendations and conclusions made is that ghana should have a national library and bibliographic centre which should be wholly funded by the government; this centre should be established within the context of a national council on libraries and information (ncli) that should, in fact, serve as the focal point of the library and information system in ghana.EUR79.9 9781473913097���lQqQsQ�|�t��0�eS�T>yOUnderstanding Public RelationsTheory, Culture And Society Edwards, LeeBThis book argues that public relations is not merely an organizational tool, but a powerful influence on social and political life. From carefully considered communication by multinational corporations, to government campaigns that manage public opinion, to the self-promotion of celebrities via social media, public relations is central to our individual and collective lives. Understanding public relations introduces a socio-cultural approach to public relations as a way of analysing the growing importance of public relations in its social, cultural and political contexts. 9780674988408egꁷ_�V�v�e����c6RNLu����v�z[� �1900-1945t^MNews From Germany: The Competition To Control World Communications, 1900-1945Heidi J. S. TworekTo control information is to control the world. This innovative history reveals how, across two devastating wars, germany attempted to build a powerful communication empire-and how the nazis manipulated the news to rise to dominance in europe and further their global agenda. Information warfare may seem like a new feature of our contemporary digital world. But it was just as crucial a century ago, when the great powers competed to control and expand their empires. In news from germany, heidi tworek uncovers how germans fought to regulate information at home and used the innovation of wireless technology to magnify their power abroad. Tworek reveals how for nearly fifty years, across three different political regimes, germany tried to control world communications-and nearly succeeded. From the turn of the twentieth century, german political and business elites worried that their british and french rivals dominated global news networks. Many germans even blamed foreign media for germany's defeat in world war i. 9781138238138�N㉒ZSO6R\OUnderstanding Media Production Paul DwyercUsing in-depth analysis of film, tv, news and online productions, understanding media production shows how media theory helps aspiring producers understand good practice in media production.

The book tracks the evolution of these entertainment formats and the emergence of the media businesses which produce them. Chapters describe the key production practices associated with each format, including single and multi-camera filming, news reporting, three-point lighting and gameplay animation. They also explain the development of the production roles associated with these content forms; directors, producers, reporters, correspondents etc. The book goes on to explain how media businesses have used new technologies and production innovations to reduce costs and increase profits, resulting in dramatic changes to established production practices and roles. 9781138556140)R(u�|�~���[�R9e�Uf[!h�\a�V�S:N�s�[*Improving Schools Using Systems LeadershipTurning Intention Into Reality+Ian Macdonald, Tony Tiplady And Clive Dixon�Systems leadership provides those involved in the design and delivery of educational services with a coherent toolkit to help design and run an effective organization.

As the integrity of the international media landscape is challenged by far-reaching transformations and the rise of `fake news', the need for a functional system of media regulation is greater than ever. This book addresses the pressing need to re-evaluate and redefine the notion of accountability in the fast-changing field of journalism and "information provision". Using comparative research and empirical data, the book's case studies address the notion of media accountability from various perspectives, considering political and societal change, economic, organisational and technological factors, and the changing role of media audiences. By collecting and juxtaposing these studies, the book provides a new discussion for the old question of how we can safeguard free and responsible media in europe - a question that seems more urgent than ever. 9780190872526�ZSO(W�_-N Media In MindReynolds, Daniel�Media in mind surveys more than a century of media theory to illustrate the ways that conceptual divisions have reflected and inflected media scholars' understanding of the mind. 9780691177595 T�N�vbgRThe Drama Of Celebrity Sharon Marcus%A bold new account of how celebrity works why do so many people care so much about celebrities? who decides who gets to be a star? what are the privileges and pleasures of fandom? do celebrities ever deserve the outsized attention they receive? in this fascinating and deeply researched book, sharon marcus challenges everything you thought you knew about our obsession with fame. Icons are not merely famous for being famous; the media alone cannot make or break stars; fans are not simply passive dupes. Instead, journalists, the public, and celebrities themselves all compete, passionately and expertly, to shape the stories we tell about celebrities and fans. The result: a high-stakes drama as endless as it is unpredictable. Drawing on scrapbooks, personal diaries, and vintage fan mail, marcus traces celebrity culture back to its nineteenth-century roots, when people the world over found themselves captivated by celebrity chefs, bad-boy poets, and actors such as the "divine" sarah bernhardt (1844-1923), as famous in her day as the beatles in theirs. 9781538112656 Cg)RN Y6R:�eS:g�gKb�Q@Rights And Reproductions: The Handbook For Cultural Institutions Anne M.

Orchestrating a layered conversation between arts, disciplines, and media, stam argues for their "mutual embeddedness" and their shared "in-between" te< rritories. Rather than merely add to the existing scholarship, the book builds a relational framework through the connectivities within literature, cinema and media that opens up analysis to new categories and concepts, whilst crossing spatial, temporal, theoretical, disciplinary, and mediatic borders.

While development communication and public diplomacy are established research fields, there is little scholarship that seeks to understand how the two areas relate to one another. However, international development doctrine in the us, uk and elsewhere increasingly suggests that they are integrated or at the very least should be at the level of national strategy. This timely volume considers a variety of cases in diverse regions, drawing upon a combination of theoretical and conceptual lenses that combine a focus on both aid and image. The result is a text that seeks to establish a new body of knowledge on how contemporary debates into public diplomacy, soft power and the national image are fundamentally changing not just the communication of aid, but its wider strategies, modalities and practices. 9780815362296�Vb_�f�R��V�sQ�N�f�R0'YO�ZSO�Tb�N�v>yOu;mt��Graphic ViolenceHIllustrated Theories About Violence, Popular Media, And Our Social Lives Emily Edwards And Tristan Fuller?Graphic violence provides an innovative introduction to the relationship between violence and visual media, discussing how media consumers and producers can think critically about and interact with violent visual content.

We continue to want to understand propaganda s inner-workings and, in doing so, to control and confine its influence. We remain anxious about pernicious information warfare campaigns, especially those that seemingly endanger liberal democracy or freedom of thought. What are the challenges, then, of studying propaganda studies in the twenty-first century? much scholarship remains locked into the study of state-led campaigns, however an area of special concern in recent years has been the loss of official control over the basic instruments of mass communication. This has been seen in the rise of  fake news and the ability of non-state actors to influence political events.

Hess; Michael Q. McshaneHarvard Education Press_Frederick m. Hess and michael q. Mcshane have gathered a diverse group of scholars to examine the shifting federal role in education across the presidential administrations of george w. Bush and barack obama. While the administrations were vastly different, one thing remained constant: an ongoing and significant expansion of the federal role in education. Moreover, many of the key principles underlying federal reform remained consistent: an emphasis on standards- and test-based accountability; teacher quality as measured by test scores; school choice; and the importance of research in evaluating improvement initiatives. Rather than evaluating the merits of particular reforms, the book's contributors look at how federal involvement shaped the ways these initiatives were taken up--and by whom--as well as the sources and contours of political resistance. 9781350072039�SN��Y7h'`"Engaging With Linguistic Diversity;A Study Of Educational Inclusion In An Irish Primary School David Little�Engaging with linguistic diversity describes an innovative and highly successful approach to inclusive plurilingual education at primary level.

Democracy is more than voting: it includes a wide range of democratic practices and depends on a culture of civic participation. Critical for strengthening democracy is the role that higher education leaders play in educating their constituencies about their responsibilities of citizenship. During a period of time when higher education is under pressure to meet 21st century workforce needs, the authors here exhort to remember the public mission of education to serve the needs of the democracy, a government by the people means that the people must be ready to govern.

RoseUniversity Of Nebraska Press<The carlisle indian school (1879-1918) was an audacious educational experiment. Capt. Richard henry pratt, the school's founder and first superintendent, persuaded the federal government that training native children to accept the white man's ways and values would be more efficient than fighting deadly battles. The result was that the last indian war would be waged against native children in the classroom. More than 10,500 children from< virtually every native nation in the united states were taken from their homes and transported to pennsylvania. Carlisle provided a blueprint for the federal indian school system that was established across the united states and served as a model for many residential schools in canada. The carlisle experiment initiated patterns of dislocation and rupture far deeper and more profound and enduring than its initiators ever grasped. Carlisle indian industrial school offers varied perspectives on the school by interweaving the voices of students' descendants, poets, and activists with cutting-edge research by native and non-native scholars. 9781138599895�SƉSf[`N��S��Visible Learning: FeedbackJohn Hattie And Shirley ClarkeuFeedback is arguably the most critical and powerful aspect of teaching and learning.

It examines developments, issues and controversies in physical literacy studies, and looks at how the concept has been implemented around the world. Contributions from practitioners and researchers across the world tell unique stories of the way physical literacy is changing perceptions of physical activity through research and the generation of scholarly writing, the creation of new national and local policies and the development of partnerships with a range of professions. The book argues that physical literacy has value beyond formal education, such as in occupational and recreational settings as well as for early years children and older people and shows how life story methods can explain our physical literacy journeys.

Using case studies from a variety of uk higher education contexts, this book develops the concepts of everyday mobilities and mobile belongingness. The authors draw on key ideas about the changing characteristics of uk higher education and of student belonging, exploring the central themes of the sensory, affective and emotional aspects of student mobilities; contested and mobile belongings; and the significance of everyday life, to bring a new dimension to the literature on inter and intra-national student mobilities. This is achieved through an examination of the innovative ways in which social science methods have been (re)imagined through mobility, with a specific focus on youth and education.

Over the last 40 years the 'text-as-world' metaphor has become one of the most prevalent and productive means of describing the experiencing of producing and receiving discourse. This has been the case in a range of disciplines, including stylistics, cognitive poetics, narratology, discourse analysis and literary theory.The metaphor has enabled analysts to formulate a variety of frameworks for describing and examining the textual and conceptual mechanics involved in human communication, articulating these variously through such concepts as 'possible worlds', 'text-worlds' and 'storyworlds'.

History. On one side, a union leader and veteran black woman educator drew upon organizing strategies from black and latinx communities to demand increased school resources. On the other side, the mayor, backed by the obama administration, argued that only corporate-style education reform could set the struggling school system aright. The stark differences in positions resonated nationally, challenging the long-standing alliance between teachers' unions and the democratic party. Elizabeth todd-breland recovers the hidden history underlying this battle. She tells the story of black education reformers' community-based strategies to improve education beginning during the 1960s, as support for desegregation transformed into community control, experimental schooling models that pre-dated charter schools, and black teachers' challenges to a newly assertive teachers' union. 9781138353251 /ec�y�b�;Nf[`N�����f[t^;Supporting Self-directed Learning In Science And TechnologyBeyond The School Years:L�onie J.

In the past, the study of curiosity has been mainly restricted to the field of psychology. Recently, a new science of curiosity has emerged that is multidisciplinary, applicative, and transformative. In this book, some of the leading researchers of this emerging field give a comprehensive background description, explain in detail the state-of-the-art advances, and raise future-looking insights into curiosity. The book includes accounts of new neuroscientific research of curiosity, computational models of infant-like robots, thought-provoking insights into knowledge and wisdom, and curious social robots that play with curious children. Furthermore, applications of the new science of curiosity in art and game-design highlight the importance of these new approaches to fields outside science. The new science of curiosity also has a great impact on our day-to-day lives, described in the book regarding the medical profession and the educational system. 9781620360873�^���f�}YNLu�hQt&Ot g�Rf[`N�vYe��f[N�[��Building A Better World<The Pedagory And Practice Of Ethical Global Service LearningGEric Hartman; Richard C.

They can positively impact communities, grow civil society networks, and have transformative effects for students who become more globally aware and more engaged in global civil society - at home and abroad. Yet such programs are also packed with peril. Clear evidence indicates that poor forms of such programming have negative impacts on vulnerable persons, including medical patients and children, while cementing stereotypes and reinforcing patterns of privilege and exclusion. These dangers can be mitigated, however, through collaborative planning, design, and evaluation that advances mutually beneficial community partnerships, critically reflective practice, thoughtful facilitation, and creative use of resources. 9781682532584Yef[�v�v��~f[uZP}Y gaIN�vu;m�v�QYTeaching For Purpose'Preparing Students For Lives Of Meaning Heather Malin�In teaching for purpose, heather malin explores the idea of purpose as the purpose of education and shows how educators can prepare youth to live intentional, fulfilling lives.

Authoritarian, authoritative, permissive and neglecting approaches, as well as newer techniques such as helicopter parenting, are compared with filial, tiger and training approaches, and mixed parenting styles. Practical application sections show how cultural understanding can help demonstrate how professionals might use the information and ideas in their clinical work, whilst parental questionnaires encourage self-assessment and reflection. Dr. Foo koong hean brings together the traditional and evolving approaches to the art of parenting practices and also showcases relatively neglected research on eastern parenting practices. 9781498561457 WS^�\f[�vkb�vNl;N7Literacy And Democracy In South African Primary SchoolsGetahun Yacob Abraham"Literacy and democracy in south african primary schools presents findings based on two research projects conducted in south african primary schools during the same time frame.

The contributors to this volume present models that eschew the top-down framing of policy to advocate for practice that drives bottom-up change by arming the widest range of stakeholders -- especially members of marginalized communities -- with relevant research.They demonstrate how public scholarship in higher education can increase its impact on practice and policy and compellingly argue that public scholarship should be recognized as normative practice for all scholars and indeed integrated into the curriculum of graduate courses.The chapters describe multiple types of public scholarship and different strategies that move beyond informing policymakers, faculty, and administrators to engage publics such as students and parents, media, the general public, and particularly groups that may have had little or no access to research. 9781620362297%�W�Nb�g�v��R�[�g�)R(u��KmR�g�T�~Hech�OcN�eg�md���X�QY�vb�~�]ݍOutcomes-based Program ReviewtClosing Achievement Gaps In And Outside The Classroom With Alignment To Predictive Analytics And Performance Metrics(Marilee J.

With many players from the 1927 team still in the lineup-including bob meusel, earle combs, mark koenig, tony lazzeri, lou gehrig, and babe ruth-the yankees charged out of the gates to start the regular season on top of the standings. Yet, with just three weeks remaining in the season, the yankees saw their lead disappear. Manager miller huggins pulled together his patchwork pitching staff and banged-up regulars and reserves to mount a nail-biting fight to the finish. Highlighted by numerous photos of the players, this detailed and thoroughly researched book provides an intimate look into a season to remember.USD25 9781628315004Plunkett�vЏ�R�TO�NNt^t�2019t^4Plunkett's Sports & Recreation Industry Almanac 2019Jack W.

Artie wilson once was the best shortstop in baseball. In 1948 artie led all of baseball with a .402 batting average for the birmingham black barons, the last hitter in the top level of pro ball to hit .400. But during much of his career, organized baseball passed artie by because he was black. In singles and smiles: how artie wilson broke baseball's color barrier, gaylon h.

Besides entertaining the crowd, the games delivered a powerful message of Roman power: as a reminder of the wars in which Rome had acquired its empire, the distant regions of its far-flung empire (from where they had obtained wild beasts for the venatio), and the inevitability of Roman justice for criminals and those foreigners who had dared to challenge the empire's authority. Though we might see these games as bloodthirsty, cruel and reprehensible condemning any alien culture out of hand for a sport that offends our sensibilities smacks of cultural chauvinism. Instead one should judge an ancient sport by the standards of its contemporary cultural context.

Scouting seems to rely on experience and intuition, scoring on performance metrics and statistics. In scouting and scoring, christopher phillips rejects these simplistic divisions. He shows how both scouts and scorers rely on numbers, bureaucracy, trust, and human labor in order to make sound judgments about the value of baseball players. Tracing baseball's story from the nineteenth century to today, phillips explains that the sport was one of the earliest and most consequential fields for the introduction of numerical analysis. New technologies and methods of data collection were supposed to enable teams to quantify the drafting and managing of players--replacing scouting with scoring. But that's not how things turned out. Over the decades, scouting and scoring started looking increasingly similar. Scouts expressed their judgments in highly formulaic ways, using numerical grades and scientific instruments to evaluate players. 9781138287495 ��t�_tf[��Nt��0R�[��Football Psychology9Edited By Erkut Konter, J?rgen Beckmann And Todd Loughead�This is the first book to comprehensively map the psychology of learning, playing and coaching the world?s favourite sport, and is essential reading for any student, researcher or professional in the area. 9781498541206eYЏO �ςT�SO���[�P:g�g�T�Qb��~r�SO�� �A~�eTape��WThe Olympic Games, the Soviet Sports Bureaucracy, and the Cold War: Red Sport, Red Tape Jenifer Parks 9781682260753*lQs^�TckIN�v�S�V��b�k O�b�Qh�_�eN?���r��]�v�y�eN>yOckIN�e�N �1926-1963Just And Righteous CausesTRabbi Ira Sanders And The Fight For Racial And Social Justice In Arkansas, 1926-1963James L.

During an eighteen-year pro career, mcdole--nicknamed "the dancing bear"--played in over 250 games, including two afl championships with the buffalo bills and one nfl championship with the washington redskins. A cagey and deceptively agile athlete, mcdole wreaked havoc on football's best offenses as part of a bills defensive line that held opponents without a rushing touchdown for seventeen straight games.

After winning four straight stanley cups in the early 1980s, the islanders had suffered an embarrassing sweep by their geographic rivals, the new york rangers, in the first round of the 1994 playoffs. Hoping for a new start, the islanders swapped out their distinctive logo, which featured the letters ny and a map of long island, for a cartoon fisherman wearing a rain slicker and gripping a hockey stick. The new logo immediately drew comparisons to the mascot for gorton's frozen seafood, and opposing fans taunted the team with chants of "we want fish sticks " during a rebranding process that lasted three torturous seasons, the islanders unveiled a new mascot, new uniforms, new players, a new coach, and a new owner that were supposed to signal a return to championship glory. Instead, the team and its fans endured a twenty-eight-month span more humiliating than what most franchises witness over twenty-eight years. The islanders thought they had traded for a star player to inaugurate the fisherman era, but he initially refused to report and sulked until the general manager banished him.

As images of dissolute bikers graced the pages of newspapers and magazines, the three-day gathering sparked the growth of a new subculture while also touching off national alarm. In the years that followed, the stereotypical leather-clad biker emerged in the american consciousness as a menace to law-abiding motorists and small towns.

These issues come to the forefront in the phonetic manifestation of stress and accent, their cross-linguistic variation and the subtle and intricate laws they obey in individual languages. Understanding the nature of stress and accent systems informs all aspects of linguistic theory, methods, typology and especially the grammatical analysis of language data. These themes form the organizational backbone of this book. Bringing together a team of world-renowned phonologists, the volume covers a range of typological and theoretical issues in the study of stress and accent. It will appeal to researchers who value synergistic approaches to the study of stress and accent, careful attention to cross-linguistic variation, and detailed analyzes of both well-studied and understudied languages. 9781138056923 ,{2����Xf[`NxvzKb�QHThe Routledge Handbook Of Second Language Research In Classroom LearningRonald P.

This book is the first to ask, what can translanguaging tell us about translation and what can translation tell us about translanguaging? translanguaging originated as a term to characterize bilingual and multilingual repertoires, and has been extended more recently to characterise the deployment of a spectra of semiotic resources including embodiment. This book extends the linguistic focus to consider translanguaging and translation in tandem - across languages, language varieties, registers, and discourses, and in a diverse range of contexts: everyday multilingual settings involving community interpreting and cultural brokering, embodied interaction in sports, text-based commodities, and multimodal experimental poetics. The book illustrates how perspectives from translation can enrich our understanding of translanguaging, and how translanguaging, with its notions of repertoire and the "moment", can contribute to a practice-based account of translation. 9781138641730�ыNNLu�ef[ Translation And World LiteratureEdited By Susan Bassnett�Translation and world literature offers a variety of international perspectives on the complex role of translation in the dissemination of literatures around the world.

Kohn, whom the guardian has called "one of the best science writers we have," brings together perspectives from psychology, evolutionary thought, politics, literature, and everyday experience.

Presenting a truly semantic approach to syntax, this book takes as its primary starting point the idea that syntax deals with the relations between meanings expressed by form-meaning elements and that the same types of relations can be found cross-linguistically. The theory provides a way to formalize the syntactic relations between meanings so that each fragment of grammar can be analyzed in a clear-cut way. A comprehensive introduction into the theoretical concepts of the theory is provided, with analyzes of numerous examples in english and various other languages, european and non-european, to illustrate the concepts. The theory discussed will enable linguists to look for similarities between languages, while at the same time acknowledging important language specific features. 9781107193437�ez� YtQ�eg�v#W�~N��V9ei��AS�NN�~�v��V.The Renaissance Reform Of The Book And BritainThe English Quattrocento David RundlecWhat has fifteenth-century england to do with the renaissance? by challenging accepted notions of 'medieval' and 'early modern' david rundle proposes a new understanding of english engagement with the renaissance.

The following parts are devoted to three major grammatical writers: guarino veronese (1374-1460), niccol?? perotti (1419/1420-1480), and antonio de nebrija (1441/1444?-1522), and to other figures, such as the famous lorenzo valla (1407-1457). Professor percival focuses throughout on widely disseminated textbooks, beginning with the earliest attempt at a humanistic rejuvenation of grammar, the brief 'regulae grammaticales' of guarino veronese (c. 9781107059481�Z�u�N�v�Xf�R�Nɋ��-N�v�݋N�e,gThe Suspect's Statement%Talk And Text In The Criminal Process Martha Komter�What suspects tell the police may become a crucial piece of evidence when the case comes to court. But what happens to 'the suspect's statement' when it is written down by the police? based on a unique set of data from over fifteen years' worth of research, martha komter examines the trajectory of the suspect's statement from the police interrogation through to the trial. She shows how the suspect's statement is elicited and written down in the police report, how this police report both represents and differs from the original talk in the interrogation, and how it is quoted and referred to in court. The analyses cover interactions in multiple settings, with documents that link one interaction to the next, providing insights into the interactional and documentary foundations of the criminal process and, more generally, into the construction, character and uses of documents in institutional settings. 9780198842019 '`+RNR{|:���{|�Wf[Genders And ClassifiersA Cross-linguistic Typology&Aikhenvald, Alexandra Y.; Mihas, ElenaSThis volume offers a comprehensive account of the typology of noun classification across the world's languages.

This fascination also drives us to search for meaning in sound - thereby contradicting the principle of the arbitrariness of the linguistic sign. Phonesthemes, onomatopoeia or rhyming compounds all share the property of carrying meaning by virtue of what they sound like, simply because language users establish an association between form and meaning. By drawing on a wide array of examples, ranging from conventionalized words and expressions to brand names and slogans, this book offers a comprehensive account of the role that sound symbolism and rhyme/alliteration plays in english, and by doing so, advocates a more relaxed view of the category 'morpheme' that is able to incorporate less regular word-formation processes. 9781107047648 W��N���SvQ�S��%Heritage Languages And Their SpeakersMaria PolinskyOA pioneering introduction to heritage languages that covers all the main components of grammar and shows easy familiarity with approaches ranging from formal grammar to typology, and from sociolinguistics to psycholinguistics.

The corpus analysis provides evidence of how registers can inform us about the history of english, as it traces and compares the usage and stylistic drifts of phrasal verbs across ten different genres - drama, fiction, journals, diaries, letters, medicine, news, science, sermons, and trial proceedings. The study also sheds new light on the morpho-syntactic and semantic features of phrasal verbs, proposing a new approach to the category, considering not only on their grammatical features, but also their historical development, by discussing the category in terms of a number of central mechanisms of language change. 9781107181069 ��O݋�v���_!j_)Prosodic Patterns In English Conversation Nigel G. Ward�Language is more than words: it includes the prosodic features and patterns that we use, subconsciously, to frame meanings and achieve our goals in our interaction with others. Here, nigel g. Ward explains how we do this, going beyond intonation to show how pitch, timing, intensity and voicing properties combine to form meaningful temporal configurations: prosodic constructions. Bringing together new findings and hitherto-scattered observations from phonetic and pragmatic studies, this book describes over twenty common prosodic patterns in english conversation. Using examples from real conversations, it illustrates how prosodic constructions serve essential functions such as inviting, showing approval, taking turns, organizing ideas, reaching agreement, and evoking action. Prosody helps us establish rapport and nurture relationships, but subtle differences in prosody across languages and subcultures can be damagingly misunderstood. 9781138383807���eL��Q\O-N�v�O��NGY�� �1560-16138Rhetoric And Wonder In English Travel Writing, 1560-1613Jonathan P.A.

The author complements, and sometimes counters, recent work on early modern travel literature by concentrating on its use of rhetoric to communicate meaning. In doing so, he suggests how familiarity with the workings of rhetoric may enhance readings of early modern english literature generally. 9781108415774 ����lxvz��N�~Working With English GrammarLouise Cummings$This clear and concise introduction offers students of linguistics and english language a comprehensive overview of english grammar.

Bowerman also covers the learning of argument structure and expressions of end-state, with special attention to the adult speech that guides children, and hence also the role of typology in acquisition; how cross-linguistic variation affects, for example, how speakers represent `cutting' and `breaking' in different languages, and the relation of the whorfian hypothesis to cross-linguistic variations in the semantics of languages. Bowerman's over-riding concern throughout is with how children come to master the first language being spoken to them by their parents and caregivers. 9780198823643��0NLu�TLuP�����Tf[�Tb_ � Nf[�v���eLanguage, World, And Limits4Essays In The Philosophy Of Language And Metaphysics A.W. MooreIThese essays by a.W. Moore are all concerned with the business of representing how things are - its nature, its scope, and its limits. The essays in part one deal with linguistic representation and discuss topics such as rules of representation and their nature, the sorites paradox, and the very distinction between sense and nonsense. Wittgenstein's work, both early and late, figures prominently. One thesis that surfaces at various points is that some things are beyond representation. The essays in part two deal with representation more generally and with the character of what is represented, and owe much to bernard williams's argument for the possibility of representation from no point of view. They touch more or less directly on the distinction between representation from a point of view and representation from no point of view-in some cases by exploring various consequences of kant's belief that representation of how things are physically is always, eo ipso, representation from a point of view. One thesis that surfaces at various points is that nothing is beyond representation. 9780230551848 ���vT��R�VE�xvzCharms, Charmers and Charming&International Research on Verbal MagicJonathan RoperUBringing together many of today's key scholars of verbal charming, these essays cover vernacular magical texts and practice from Malaysia to Madagascar, and from England to Estonia.

Bolger�Can the meaning of religious language be separated from its use? in religious language, meaning, and use, robert bolger and robert coburn address what has become a contentious though often overlooked account of the relationship between religious belief and religious practice. Through philosophical argumentation and by means of a variety of sermon-like essays on religious topics, this book seeks to return religion to the place in which the meaning and practical impact of its beliefs become inseparable from the life of the believer. Part i begins by considering, through the loose lens of wittgenstein's philosophical method, how religious language has been misunderstood leading straightway to a variety of challenges and conceptual confusions. Part ii presents previously unpublished essays written by robert c. Coburn who has, for over 50 years, been at the forefront of the study of metaphysics and philosophy of religion. Making a compelling case for a religious practice that avoids trivializing religious belief, this book promises to be a corrective to those who see faith as nothing more than ethics in disguise and to those metaphysicians who see faith as a set of beliefs. 9780715634967^(�<\�N�e��S ^J��v�eL��Q\O Pausanias Travel Writing in Ancient GreecePretzler, MariaGerald Duckworth �Combines an introduction to Pausanias with fresh perspectives.

9781138576711 �s�NIl��R�R{|t��Modern Chinese Parts Of SpeechClassification TheoryRui Guo�What is the nature of part of speech? why is it difficult to divide parts of speech? what are the bases and criteria for dividing them? how should they be divided? in doing so, how should a conversional word be dealt with? how should nomonalization be treated? these are just some of the questions answered in this book. The division of parts of speech in chinese is a tough job due to its lack of morphological differences. Based on the analysis of nearly 40,000 chinese characters, this book thinks that essentially, a part of speech is not of distributional type and that its intrinsic basis is expressional function and semantic type. In nature, the large categories such as substantive word, predicate word and modification word are classes of words divided according to their expressional functions. The basic categories such as noun, verb and adjective are classes that combine semantic types with syntactical functions. 9780815367109 f[`NO(uIl틨R`�R͋%Learn To Use Chinese Aspect ParticlesJian Kang LoarJAspect in mandarin chinese plays an important role in interpreting the temporal information of a sentence.

One peculiarity is that it does not do so randomly, but in a structured way, with information structuring formally recognized to be a component of grammar. Among all information structuring notions, focus is one primitive needed to account for all phenomena. Focus manifestation in mandarin chinese and cantonese: a comparative perspective aims to examine from a semantic perspective how syntactic structures and focus adverbs in mandarin chinese and semantic particles in cantonese conspire to encode focus structures and determine focus manifestation in chinese. With both as tonal languages, mandarin chinese and cantonese manifest different morpho-syntactic configurations to mark focus. A general principle governing focus marking in mandarin chinese and cantonese is given in the book, which aims to give a better understanding on the underlying principles the two used to mark additive and restrictive meanings, and related focus interpretations. 9781138480230?��b/O���{�ы$Arabic Translation Across Discourses Said Faiq�A rare contribution to global translation as a "cross-cultural-open-concept," arabic translation across discourses provides explorations of arabic translation as an instance of transcultural and translingual encounters (transculguaging).

The analyses distinguish context-independent primary meanings from other meanings which are due to implications and contextual effects. The inflections convey factuality, tense, (morphological) aspect, and habituality, but the inflections and their meanings are differently distributed over different sorts of verbs. The analysis of factuality outlines different sorts of counterfactual situations, and discusses whether counterfactual meaning can best be accounted for in terms of true statements in imagined possible worlds or in terms of false statements in the actual world. The analysis of tense argues that it conveys evaluation time and not situation time, which can be different to evaluation time, and that tense is not a collection of simple labels like 'past' or 'present' but is a combination of two times, a deictic reference time and a relative evaluation time, which organize the tenses as a system. Morphological aspect is discussed in terms of perfective and imperfective meanings. Habituality is a property of situations which can be described by all inflections but the study shows that bod 'be' alone has specialized forms to convey habituality. The discussion of the perfect aspect considers the appropriateness of anterior time, retrospective view, and current relevance to account for its meaning.

Long published only in censored form or in secret among political dissidents, this body of underground literature is collectively known as samizdat.

Little, however, has been written on the broader trajectory of western thought about ambiguity before empson; as a result, the nature of his innovation has been poorly understood. A history of ambiguity remedies this omission. Starting with classical grammar and rhetoric, and moving on to moral theology, law, biblical exegesis, german philosophy, and literary criticism, anthony ossa-richardson explores the many ways in which readers and theorists posited, denied, conceptualised, and argued over the existence of multiple meanings in texts between antiquity and the twentieth century. 9780231191302!iRYO�v*geg�1960t^�N�T1970t^�N�e,g�ef[�TƉɉ�ZSO�v�W^u`[Residual Futures: The Urban Ecologies Of Literary And Visual Media Of 1960s And 1970s JapanFranz PrichardTIn the postwar years, an eruption of urbanization took place across japan, from its historical central cities to the outer reaches of the archipelago. During the 1960s and 1970s, japanese literary and visual media took a deep interest in cities and their problems, and what this rapid change meant for the country. In residual futures, franz prichard offers a pathbreaking analysis of the works wrought from this intensive urbanization, mapping the ways in which japanese filmmakers, writers, photographers, and other artists came to grips with the entwined ecologies of a drastic transformation. Residual futures examines crucial works of documentary film, fiction, and photography that interrogated japan's urbanization and integration into the u.S.-dominated geopolitical system. Prichard discusses documentary filmmaker tsuchimoto noriaki's portrait of the urban "traffic war" and the remaking of tokyo for the 1964 olympics, novelist abe kobo's depictions of infrastructure and urban sociality, and the radical notions of landscape that emerge from the critical and photographic work of nakahira takuma. 9781845191252AS]NN�~�ef[-N�v�yf[NhQ�yf[8Science and Omniscience in Nineteenth Century LiteratureTaylor, Jonathan\Iinvestigates some of the ways in which Laplacian and, indeed, Newtonian models of observation and the universe are at once assimilated and complicated by Romantic and Victorian writers such as Carlyle, Burke, Abbott, Poe and Wordsworth.

Bauer�A mathematical tour of some of the greatest unsolved ciphers of all time in 1953, a man was found dead from cyanide poisoning near the philadelphia airport with a picture of a nazi aircraft in his wallet and an enciphered message taped to his abdomen. In 1912, a book dealer named wilfrid voynich came into possession of an illuminated cipher manuscript once belonging to emperor rudolf ii, who was obsessed with alchemy and the occult. Wartime codebreakers tried-and failed-to unlock the book's secrets, and it remains an enigma to this day. In this lively and entertaining book, craig bauer examines these and other vexing ciphers yet to be cracked. Some may reveal the identity of a spy or serial killer, provide the location of buried treasure, or expose a secret society-while others may be elaborate hoaxes. He lays out the evidence surrounding each cipher, describes the efforts to decipher it, and invites readers to try their hand at puzzles that have stymied so many others. 9780691191454N,gfN-N�vNLu��R�t̑�NN O�epQ~v�yhQfN O�~FThe World In A Book: Al-nuwayri And The Islamic Encyclopedic Tradition Elias Muhanna�Shihab al-din al-nuwayri was a fourteenth-century egyptian polymath and the author of one of the greatest encyclopedias of the medieval islamic world-a thirty-one-volume work entitled the ultimate ambition in the arts of erudition.

This collection suggests a different approach. Drawing on recent work expanding our sense of the political and aesthetic energies of interwar modernisms, these chapters track transitions in british literature. The strains of national break-up, class dissension and political instability provoked a new literary order, and reading across the two decades between the wars exposes the continuing pressure of these transitions. Instead of following familiar markers - 1922, the crash, the spanish civil war - or isolating particular themes from literary study, this collection takes key problems and dilemmas from literature 'in transition' and reads them across familiar and unfamiliar cultural works and productions, in their rich and contradictory context of publication. Themes such as gender, sexuality, nation and class are thus present throughout these essays. Major writers such as woolf are read alongside forgotten and marginalised voices. 9782503535777AethicusX[hV�v�[�[f[�Hr ��ы �ċ��!The Cosmography Of Aethicus Ister$Edition, Translation, And CommentaryMichael HerrenJOne of the most skilful forgeries of the Middle Ages, the Cosmography of Aethicus Ister has puzzled scholars for over 150 years, not least because of its challenging Latinity.

The legacies of colonialism and the continuance of indigenous cultures makes the andes a unique place from which to think about art and social change as ongoing, and as encompassing more than an exclusively human perspective. Beyond human revises established readings of the avant-gardes in peru and bolivia as humanizing and historical. By presenting fresh readings of canonical authors like cesar vallejo, jose maria arguedas, and magda portal and through analysis of newer artist-activists like julieta paredes, mujeres creando comunidad, and alejandra dorado, daly argues instead that avant-gardes complicate questions of agency and contribute to theoretical discussions on vital materialisms: the idea that life happens between animate and inanimate beings-human and non-human-and is made sensible through art. 9780198805670 �����N�e;NIN�v�eirAntiquities Beyond Humanism.Bianchi, Emanuela; Brill, Sara; Holmes, BrookeWThe presumed dichotomy between a greco-roman paradigm of western humanism and new theoretical currents in the humanities is exploded in this volume, which explores the myriad ways in which greek and roman philosophy and literature can be understood as foregrounding the non-human rather than simply reflecting the ideals of classical humanism. 9781107176645R$ON�ef[Trauma And LiteratureKurtz J.

This volume re-explores his ambivalent role as a catholic unionist contributor to the progressive tory london periodical, fraser�s magazine, examining his use of translation to map out an alternative literary aesthetic of the peripheries. The book also traces the development of his political thinking in his italian journalism for charles dickens� daily news, in which he responded to the events of the famine by finding common cause with young ireland, and looks afresh at his final incarnation as a british liberal commentator on irish and european affairs for the globe newspaper.

Norris's poems traverse the full range of european poetic history from homer's odyssey, through the work of french symbolists such as mallarme, to modern writers such as yeats, benjamin, heaney, larkin, and barthes. There are also verse-essays and shorter pieces on philosophers from hume and leibniz to heidegger, althusser, derrida, de man, rorty, deleuze, badiou, and agamben.

Chapters address key sites, especially department stores, women's clubs, and city streets, that coevolved with controversial types of modern women. Interweaving cultural history, narrative theory, close reading, and spatial analysis, threshold modernism considers canonical figures such as george gissing, henry james, dorothy richardson, h. G. Wells, and virginia woolf alongside understudied british and colonial writers including amy levy, b. M. Malabari, a. B. C. Merriman-labor, duse mohamed ali, and una marson. Evans argues that these diverse authors employed the 'new public women' and their associated spaces to grapple with widespread cultural change and reflect on the struggle to describe new subjects, experiences, and ways of seeing in appropriately novel ways. For colonial writers of color, those women and spaces provided a means through which to claim their own places in imperial london. 9781107153394 QRehT�kl�e8n�Q\OcWS6The Cambridge Companion To Postcolonial Travel Writing Clarke Robert*The cambridge companion to postcolonial travel writing offers readers an insight into the scope and range of perspectives that one encounters in this field of writing.

Sarah bilston argues that these attitudes were forged to undermine the cultural authority of the emerging middle class and to reinforce patriarchy by trivializing women's work. Resisting these stereotypes, bilston reveals how suburban life offered ambitious women, especially women writers, access to supportive communities and opportunities for literary and artistic experimentation as well as professional advancement.

Sowerby�This interdisciplinary volume explores core emerging themes in the study of early modern literary-diplomatic relations, developing essential methods of analysis and theoretical approaches that will shape future research in the field. Contributions focus on three intimately related areas: the impact of diplomatic protocol on literary production; the role of texts in diplomatic practice, particularly those that operated as 'textual ambassadors'; and the impact of changes in the literary sphere on diplomatic culture. The literary sphere held such a central place because it gave diplomats the tools to negotiate the pervasive ambiguities of diplomacy; simultaneously literary depictions of diplomacy and international law provided genre-shaped places for cultural reflection on the rapidly changing and expanding diplomatic sphere. Translations exemplify the potential of literary texts both to provoke competition and to promote cultural convergence between political communities, revealing the existence of diplomatic third spaces in which ritual, symbolic, or written conventions and semantics converged despite particular oppositions and differences. 9781446299661�|�f[/g�Q\OMastering Academic Writing Boba Samuels And Jordana Garbati�This new academic writing guide will coach undergraduate students through the trials and tribulations of transitioning to postgraduate studies. 9781350072305 wAjaxLooking At Ajax�Ajax is perhaps the earliest of sophocles tragedies, yet the issues at its heart remain profoundly resonant today. Set in the greek encampment during the siege of troy, it traces not just the story of a respected war hero s mental breakdown but (like sophocles antigone) the treatment of an enemy s remains and the management of his memory. Pitting the fate of the individual against not just his own community but the cosmic world of the divine, it explores questions of loyalty and power, compassion and control, integrity and political expediency  and ultimately what it is to be human. In antiquity the fate of ajax fascinated writers and artists alike. Today it has assumed a new importance with sophocles play being used to help treat military veterans suffering from ptsd.This collection of 12 essays by leading academics from across the uk, us and ireland draws together many of the themes explored in ajax, from how sophocles exploits audiences awareness of mythology and visual arts, to questions of politics and religion, staging and characterization, changing perceptions of the heroic, and the therapeutic use to which the play is put today. 9781138393684zz��0LNXb��NpS�^^��kl0WS��klT�v�ef[HQFQ'Space, Utopia And Indian Decolonization*Literary Pre-figurations Of The PostcolonyBanerjee, Sandeep�The book illuminates the spatial utopianism of south asian anti-colonial texts by showing how they refuse colonial spatial imaginaries to re-imagine the british indian colony as the postcolony in diverse and contested ways.

In queer philologies, he studies particular terms that illuminate the history of sexuality in shakespeare's time and analyzes the methods we have used to study sex and gender in literary and cultural history. Building on the work of theorists and historians who have, following foucault, investigated the importance of words like "homosexual," "sodomy," and "tribade" in a variety of cultures and historical periods, masten argues that just as the history of sexuality requires the history of language, so too does philology, "the love of the word," require the analytical lens provided by the study of sexuality. Masten unpacks the etymology, circulation, transformation, and constitutive power of key words within the early modern discourse of sex and gender-terms such as "conversation" and "intercourse," "fundament" and "foundation," "friend" and "boy"-that described bodies, pleasures, emotions, sexual acts, even (to the extent possible in this period) sexual identities. 9781501347474egꁹ��vǑ��Interviews From The Edge650 Years Of Conversations About Writing And Resistance�Interviews from the edge presents a selection of conversations, drawn from 50 years of the international journal new orleans review, that dive head-first into the most enduring aesthetic and social concerns of the last half century.

Through careful analysis of some of the period's most influential thinkers, including john stuart mill, george eliot, john ruskin and karl marx, adelman weaves together evolving ideas across a range of intellectual discourses - political economy, meditative poetry, the ideology of the 'gospel of work', cultural theory, the gothic and psychoanalysis. In doing so he reconstructs debates over passivity and repose and demonstrates their centrality to the cultural politics of the age. Arguing that hardened conceptions of aesthetic consciousness come into being at moments of civic unrest concerning political representation and that the fin-de-siecle witnesses the demonization of the once revolutionary category of aesthetic consciousness, the book demonstrates that late eighteenth-century positivity around human spirituality is comprehensively dismantled by the beginning of the twentieth century. 9781403976451 jm+o�ef[0�y�eN�kl0W�x�d/Romance Literature, Race and Colonial EncounterPeter J.

Recovering a wide range of theatrical criticism from newspapers and periodicals, some of it overlooked since its original publication in regency london, jonathan mulrooney explores new contexts for the work of the actor edmund kean, essayist william hazlitt, and poet john keats.� kean's ongoing presence as a figure in the theatrical news presented readers with a provocative re-imagining of personal subjectivity and a reworking of the british theatrical tradition. Hazlitt and keats, in turn, imagined the essayist and the poet along similar theatrical lines, reframing romantic prose and poetics. Taken together, these case studies illustrate not only theater's significance to early nineteenth-century londoners, but also the importance of theater's textual legacies for our own re-assessment of 'romanticism' as a historical and cultural phenomenon. 9781138303881�RyȓGY�eg?Q�zpeW[�ef[Kb�Q?The Routledge Handbook Of Digital Literacies In Early Childhood Erstad, OlaWe live in a social world in which communication and everyday literacy practices have been transformed by the digital turn.

Focusing first on the literary and philosophical strands of this language-sceptical tradition, the book proceeds to trace the various forms of linguistic negativism deployed by european writers in the interwar and post-war years, including franz kafka, georges bataille, samuel beckett, maurice blanchot, paul celan, and w. G. Sebald. Through close analyses of these and other writers' attempts to capture an 'unspeakable' experience, language and negativity in european modernism explores the remarkable literary attempt to deploy the negative potentialities of language in order to articulate an experience of what, shortly after the second world war, beckett described as a vision of 'humanity in ruins'. 9780826492807ybċ�[KN{kDeath of the CriticMcDonald, Ronan{T.S.

He goes beyond the recent vocabulary of research management to consider the more interesting question of the emergence of a cultural space in which philosophy, theory, history and practice are becoming indistinguishable. Mcquillan considers the work of a number of writers and thinkers who cross the divide between theoretical and creative practice, including alain badiou and terry eagleton, and the longer tradition of 'theory-writing' that runs through the work of h l ne cixous, roland barthes and louis althusser. His aim is to elucidate the contemporary ramifications of a relationship that has been contested throughout the long history of philosophy, from plato's dialogues to derrida's 'envois'. 9781108426275TN�S�v�b�QXT�&Ofe�v�e,gub�1384-1432t^ �Chaucer's Scribes$London Textual Production, 1384 1432Lawrence Warner�The 2004 announcement that chaucer's scribe had been discovered resulted in a paradigm shift in medieval studies. Adam pynkhurst dominated the classroom, became a fictional character, and led to suggestions that this identification should prompt the abandonment of our understanding of the development of london english and acceptance that the clerks of the guildhall were promoting vernacular literature as part of a concerted political program.

In place of the accepted story, warner provides a fresh, more nuanced one in which many more scribes, anonymous ones, worked in conditions we are only beginning to understand.

Odysseys of recognition claims that interpersonal recognition is constituted by performance, and brings performance theory into dialogue with poetics, politics, and philosophy. By observing odysseus figures from homer to kleist, ellwood wiggins offers an alternative to conventional intellectual histories that situate the invention of the interior self in modernity. Through strategic readings of aristotle, this elegantly written, innovative study recovers an understanding of interpersonal recognition that has become strange and counterintuitive. Penelope in homer's odyssey offers a model for agency in ethical knowledge that has a lot to teac< h us today. Early modern and eighteenth-century characters, meanwhile, discover themselves not deep within an impenetrable self, but in the interpersonal space between people in the world. Recognition, wiggins contends, is the moment in which epistemology and ethics coincide: in which what we know becomes manifest in what we do. 9780367134686 N�~+g�YsY�v�>e\O�T1Women's Emancipation Writing At The Fin De Siecle@Edited By Elena V.

The case is unresolved in the novel as it exists today, but twain had already planted the clue to the identity of the killer. It is not the various objects ostentatiously left around pap's naked body; they are not the foreground of the scene, but actually the background, against which a peculiar absence emerges distinctively-pap's boots, with a "cross" in one of the heels, are gone with his murderer. The key to the mystery of twain's writings, as this book contends from a broader perspective, is also such an absence. Twain's persistent reticence about the death of his father, especially the autopsy performed on his naked body, is a crucial clue to understanding his works. It reveals not only the reason why he aborted his vision of huckleberry finn as a detective novel, but also why, despite numerous undertakings, he failed to become a master of detective fiction. 97813501125514lSOBodies Of Water Posthuman Feminist PhenomenologyAstrida Neimanis�Water is the element that, more than any other, ties human beings in to the world around them  from the oceans that surround us to the water that makes up most of our bodies.

Literary infinities analyses the connection between the late 19th-century revolution in the mathematics of the infinite and the literature of 20th-century modernism, opening up a novel path of influence and inquiry in modernist literature. Baylee brits considers the role of numbers and the concept of the infinite in key modernists, including james joyce, italo svevo, jorge luis borges, samuel beckett and j.M. Coetzee. She begins by recuperating the difficult and rebellious german mathematician, georg cantor, for the broader artistic, cultural and philosophical project of modernism. Cantor revolutionized the mathematics of the infinite, creating reverberations across the numerical sciences, philosophy, religion and literary modernism. This  modernist infinity is shown to undergird and shape key innovations in narrative form, creating a bridge between the mathematical and the literary, presentation and representation, formalism and the tactile imagination. 9781350107298�ef[NhQtS�~��.Literature And The Experience Of GlobalizationTexts Without BordersSvend Erik Larsen1How does literature represent, challenge and help us understand our experience of globalization? taking literary globalization studies beyond its traditional political focus, literature and the experience of globalization explores how writers from shakespeare through goethe to isak dinesen, j.M.

Combining analyses of printed books and manuscripts with recent scholarship in the history of science, she elucidates the compositional practices and formal dilemmas of erasmus darwin, robert southey, charlotte smith, maria edgeworth, and samuel taylor coleridge. 9781108420310 ��Vjm+o;NIN�eg׋f[�vX=�-The Poetics Of Decline In British RomanticismSachs Jonathan�Anxieties about decline were a prominent feature of british public discourse in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. These anxieties were borne out repeatedly in books and periodicals, pamphlets and poems. Tracing the reciprocal development of romantic-era britain's rapidly expanding literary and market cultures through the lens of decline, jonathan sachs offers a fresh way of understanding british romanticism. The book focuses on three aspects of literary experience - questions of value, the fascination with ruins, and the representation of slow time - to explore how shifting conceptions of progress and change inform a post-enlightenment sense of cultural decline. 9783319904399��Vjm+o;NIN�ef[N�etQ�s�N ^J�l�e@British Romantic Literature And The Emerging Modern Greek NationGrammatikos, AlexanderBritish romantic literature and the emerging modern greek nation makes an original contribution to the field of british romantic hellenism (and romanticism more broadly) by emphasizing the diversity of romantic-era writers attitudes towards, and portrayals of, modern greece.

Founded in 1644 by kenelm digby, this concept was subsequently employed by a number of theologians, physicians, and natural philosophers to conceptualize nature as an interdependent system. Focusing on the middle decades of the seventeenth century, peter remien examines how samuel gott, walter charleton, robert boyle, samuel collins, and thomas burnet formed the oeconomy of nature. Remien also shows how literary authors ben jonson, george herbert, andrew marvell, margaret cavendish, and john milton use the discourse of oeconomy to explore the contours of humankind's relationship with the natural world. 9781472479945��V�eg�klNLu-N�v�YsY0'`N'`+RT��vQRoutledge Companion To Women, Sex, And Gender In The Early British Colonial World#Kimberley Anne Coles And Eve Keller 9780748640683 �^\pS�^�T�~Y)R�N�ef[�eS,British India And Victorian Literary CultureM�ire Ni Fhlath�in�The book traces the development of british indian literature from the early days of the 19th century through the victorian period.

In Tales of a Severed Head", Madani addresses present-day issues surrounding the role of women in society - issues not unlike those explored a thousand years ago in the enduring collection of Arab tales known as "The Thousand and One Nights". In the ancient tales, the insanely distrustful King Shehriyar vows to marry a new wife each night and have her beheaded the next morning, thus eliminating the risk of being cuckolded. Through the courage and wit of young Scheherazade, who volunteers to be the king's bride and then invents the legendary tales that go on for a thousand and one nights, Shehriyar is healed of his obsession and the kingdom's virgins are saved. Like her bravehearted predecessor, Madani's modern-day Scheherazade is fighting for her own life as well as the lives of her fellow sufferers. But in today's world, the threat comes as much from poverty, official corruption, the abuse of human rights, and the lingering effects of colonialism as from the power wielded by individual men.; Madani weaves a tale of contemporary resistance, and once again language provides a potent weapon."USD18 9780415785457Routledge�VE���OY�ef[Kb�Q7The Routledge Handbook Of International Beat LiteratureEdited By A.

Bringing together young and established voices in postcolonial studies, these essays tackle shame and racism, shame and agency, shame and ethical recognition, the problem of shamelessness, the shame of willed forgetfulness. Linked by a common thread of reflections on shame and literary writing, the essays consider specifically whether the aesthetic and ethical capacities of literature enable a measure of stability or recuperation in the presence of shame's destructive potential. The obscenity of the in-human, both in the colonial setting and in aftermaths that show little sign of abating, entails the acute significance of shame as a subject for continuing and urgent critical attention. 9780815384670�ef[N�l�_Literature And Law Mark Fortier�Mark fortier offers a concise, systemic introduction to the law and legal system for the lay person, covering basic notions of justice and law 9780754664901 �~_t+Y�^�b�_�Th�oz�/g%Joseph Conrad and the Performing Arts�Conrad's fiction is characterized by an enduring recourse to the performing arts for metaphor, allegory, symbol, and subject matter; however, this aspect of Conrad's non-dramatic works has only recently begun to come into its own among literary critics.

Adopting a variety of theoretical approaches, the contributors examine major and neglected works within the context of the performing arts: cultural performance in Conrad's Malay fiction; Conrad's use and parody of popular traditions such as melodrama, Grand-Guignol, and commedia dell'arte; Conrad's engagement with the visual culture of early cinema; Conrad's interest in the motifs of shadowgraphy (shadow plays); Conrad's relationship to Shakespeare; and the enduring influence of opera on his work. 9780300222784 �t�̑� 978036733271619N�~�l�V�w�{\���_�Wpg\O)The Nineteenth-century French Short StoryMasterpieces In Miniature Allan Pasco Where previous studies have examined the writers of short stories individually, the 19th-century french short story takes a broader lens to the subject, and looks at short story writers as they grapple with the artistic, ethical, and social concerns of their day.

Walsh Tamesis Books-The writings of Arturo P�rez-Reverte, one of Spain's most renowned contemporary authors, have been described as a minefield. This monograph examines the complexities behind the narrative technique employed in creating such a minefield, including an analysis of the role played by both male and female characters, the relevance of the past as a motif, and aspects of the role of storytelling in creating mystery where none should exist. Both Revertian novelsand journalistic writing are seen to be part of an over-all game which is played between their author and his readers. Film, too, forms part of the material reviewed as, though P�rez-Reverte is not a script writer, many films have been based on his novels. The text-centred analysis concludes that the themes of interest in all Revertian output revolve around two main areas: the significance of the past, whether historical, cultural, or literary, andthe role of the written word in communicating, in rescuing and in challenging versions of that past in order to combat what P�rez-Reverte terms 'dismemory'. 9781849668927 Expurgating�~xQExpurgating The Classics%Harrison, Stephen; Stray, ChristopherBristol Classical Press�The First Collection On Expurgation In The Classics, Exploring The Strategies Used To Deal With Obscene And Other Textual Material In Conflict With Post-Classical Values. 9781845192570"Flaubert�TDon Quixote�^XN�c�e�[ZS�t̑+Y�N�vq_�TFlaubert and Don Quijote+The Influence of Cervantes on Madame Bovary Fox, Soledad�Tells the story of how Flaubert's admiration for Cervantes' Don Quijote unfolded, and how profoundly it shaped and influenced Flaubert's ambition and his approach to all his major works, beginning with his breakthrough novel "Madame Bovary". 9780198768074?�GYm�y�e:׋Lk:_�0�e,g0�ы�Tċ��Archilochus: The Poems/Introduction, Text, Translation, And Commentary Swift, LauraPIn antiquity archilochus of paros was considered a poet rivalled only by homer and hesiod, yet he has been relatively neglected by modern scholarship.
