And 'community' feels good because of the meanings which the word conveys, all of them promising pleasures, and more often than not the kind of pleasures which we would like to experience but seem to miss. 'community' conveys the image of a warm and comfortable place, like a fireplace at which we warm our hands on a frosty day. Out there, in the street, all sorts of dangers lie in ambush; in here, in the community, we can relax and feel safe. 'community' stands for the kind of world which we long to inhabit but which is not, regrettably, available to us. Today 'community' is another name for paradise lost - but for a paradise which we still hope to find, as we feverishly search for the roads that may lead us there. But there is a price to be paid for the privilege of being in a community. Community promises security but seems to deprive us of freedom, of the right to be ourselves. Security and freedom are two equally precious and coveted values which could be balanced to some degree, but hardly ever fully reconciled.ENG 9780745627830 0745627838>y:S �|ň,gHardback 9780745614878 0745614876D0?e�lf[ �[N<\eY�[�pQ��s^ň �Antonio GramsciKey Contemporary Thinkers2580Levy2020 2020-11-06?e�lt�� SE-B-0004 RoutledgeTaylor & Francis 2020-12-21GBP216[r%m'Yf[ 9780415214285 0415214289C93strategic managementV{eu���^�beu�{t݋틄vyb$R Strategy Talk3A Critique Of The Discourse Of Strategic Management*Routledge Research In Strategic Management Pete Thomas 2020-12-20256cStrategy talk provides an insightful critique of strategic management.

Using the current global financial crisis as a backdrop, internationally renowned author fazal razvi examin< e a series of questions about the ways in which globalization has been variously represented in theoretical, policy and popular discourses. In clear, concise language, rizvi argues that the problem is not the idea of globalization itself but a particular ideological representation of the manner in which educational policy and practice should be aligned to its dictates. Both an introduction to the topic and a fresh analysis designed to elicit wide-ranging discussions, the book opens with discussion of some of the key contemporary theories of globalization and education in order to show these are shaped by a neo-liberal social imaginary. The second half of the book describes some of the discontents such a social imaginary has produced among particular groups of people, relegating them to the edges of the global community and resulting in vast and unacceptably high levels of inequalities.Undergraduate; Postgraduate 9780415881630 SE-G4-0366 0415881633 9780367354473 0367354470K5contemporary history 1945/4� ���NS'k�V�[,Conspiracy Theories And The Nordic CountriesConspiracy Theories�Anastasiya Astapova, Eirikur Bergmann, Asbj�rn Dyrendal, Annika Rabo, Kasper Grotle Rasmussen, Hulda Th�risd�ttir And Andreas �nnerfors 2020-12-31140`This book explores the relevance of conspiracy theories in the modern social and political history of the nordic countries. The nordic countries have traditionally imagined themselves as stable, wealthy, egalitarian welfare states. Conspiracy theories, mistrust and disunity, the argument goes, happened elsewhere in europe (especially eastern europe), the middle east or in the united states. This book paints a different picture by demonstrating that conspiracy theories have always existed in the nordic region, both as a result of structural tensions between different groups and in the aftermath of traumatic events, but seem to have become more prominent over the last thirty or forty years. While the book covers events and developments in each of the nordic countries (sweden, norway, denmark, iceland and finland) it is not a comparative country analysis.'k2m�S SE-K1-0209 9784763018366 4763018361J2 \~g�[-'Y�T5u�R �p�TNLu)Miwa Komatsu - Yamato Power, To The WorldKyuryudo Idea Books 2020-03-01178�Emerging artist miwa komatsu is known for her vibrant depictions of shinto symbolism, and often does painting performances in front of a live audience. As a child, she became familiar with the mountainous regions of nagano, japan, where she befriended animals and first encountered the  komainu that protect shrines. These fierce guardians inspired komatsu to develop her bright, exuberant acrylic painting style and saturated canvases. The creatures are both auspicious and frightening in shinto teachings. Positioning herself at the intersection of the human and spiritual, komatsu deftly harnesses this contrasting nature to reveal powerful lion-dogs, dragons, and more.nf�g�e�'Yf[�~;u 9780367467166 036746716Xspibs v��QNYeS�Ye���v�Tf[!j�WBildung And Paideia!Philosophical Models Of EducationEducation And Social Theory 2020-12-29190�Bildung and paideia examines traditional humanistic ideals in light of philosophical reflection on the need for education of the whole human being. The study of what it is to be human is traditionally the task of the humanities. In recent years, however, the humanities have been increasingly subordinated to technological, economic, and utilitarian aims. Do the humanities still have a fundamentally distinct task to fulfill in education? today s reduction of educational outcomes to measurable competencies and economically exploitable skills is opposed to traditional ideals like that of greek paideia and the german romantic concept of bildung, which emphasized formation of the whole human being. The present volume takes as point of departure the conviction that the study of  the human experience  whether through philosophy, literature, religion, art, music, history, or languages  has something specific to offer in the realm of education today.

In his nuanced exploration of the publishing and marketing of modernist works, david m.

It focuses on developments in the last two decades, with a particular interest in social justice. Japan has experienced slow economic growth, changed employment practices, population decline, an aging society, and an increasingly multi-ethnic population resulting from migration. It has faced a call to respond to the rhetoric of globalization and to concerns in childhood poverty in the perceived affluence. In education we have seen developments responding to these challenges in national and local educational policies, as well as in school-level practices.

This volume focuses on and explores the complex relation between love and justice as it appears within loving relationships, between lovers and their wider social context, and the broader political realm. Special attention is paid to the ensuing challenge of understanding and respecting the lovers personal autonomy in all three contexts.Accordingly, the essays in this volume are divided into three thematic sections. Section i aims at shedding further light on conceptual and practical issues concerning the compatibility or incompatibility of love and justice within relationships of love. For example, are loving relations inherently unjust? might love require justice? or do love and justice belong to distinct moral domains? the essays in section ii consider the relation between the lovers on the one hand and their broader societal environment on the other. Specifically, how exactly are love and impartiality related? are they compatible or not? is it unjust to favor one s beloved? finally, section iii looks at the political dimensions of love and justice.�_tf[ SE-B82-0027Cambridge University Press351'Academic researchers, graduate studentspef[ 9781108841795 1108841791D73/77�l�R'`ŋ�T�D��n0N�[�vl;N�V�[-N�vYu'`�Q�Q�T�Nh�The Volatility Curse@Exogenous Shocks And Representation In Resource-rich DemocraciesDaniela Campello 2020-11-30300�The volatility curse examines the conditions under which economic voting can (and cannot) function as a mechanism of democratic accountability, challenging existing theories that are largely based on experiences in developed democracies. Drawing on cross-national data from around the world and micro-level evidence from latin america, daniela campello and cesar zucco make two broad, related arguments. First, they show that economic voting is pervasive around the world, but in economically volatile developing democracies that are dependent on commodity exports and inflows of foreign capital, economic outcomes are highly contingent on conditions beyond government control, which nonetheless determine relevant political outcomes like elections, popular support, and government transitions. Second, politicians are aware of these misattribution patterns and are often able to anticipate their electoral prospects well before elections.?Academic researchers, undergraduate students, graduate students 9781108795357T�V?e�l 9781108484299 1108484298D913sYCg;NIN$R�Q�͑�Q�v�OCga��Feminist JudgmentsRewritten Tort Opinions5Feminist Judgment Series: Rewritten Judicial OpinionsMartha Chamallas500�By rewriting both canonical and lesser-known tort cases from a feminist perspective, this volume exposes gender and racial bias in how courts have categorized and evaluated harm stemming from pre-natal malpractice, pregnancy loss, domestic violence, sexual assault and harassment, invasion of privacy, and the award of economic and non-economic damages. The rewritten opinions demonstrate that when confronted with gendered harm to women, courts have often distorted or misapplied conventional legal doctrine to diminish the harm or deny recovery. Bringing this implicit bias to the surface can make law students, and lawyers and judges who craft arguments and apply tort doctrines, more aware of inequalities of race, gender, class, and sexual orientation or identity. This volume shows the way forward to make the basic doctrines of tort law more responsive to the needs and perspectives of traditionally marginalized people, < in ways that give greater value to harms that they disproportionately experience.'Graduate students, academic researchers 9781108706247�lf[T�� SE-D-0019 9781108481908 1108481906K7#ўr��T}vr��v�s�N'`��]��vz�/gN�V�P0�y�eN���N �1890-1945t^Modernity In Black And White5Art And Image, Race And Identity In Brazil, 1890 1945Afro-latin AmericaRafael Cardoso�Modernity in black and white provides a groundbreaking account of modern art and modernism in brazil. Departing from previous accounts, mostly restricted to the elite arenas of literature, fine art and architecture, the book situates cultural debates within the wider currents of brazilian life. From the rise of the first favelas, in the 1890s and 1900s, to the creation of samba and modern carnival, over the 1910s and 1920s, and tracking the expansion of mass media and graphic design, into the 1930s and 1940s, it foregrounds aspects of urban popular culture that have been systematically overlooked. Against this backdrop, cardoso provides a radical re-reading of antropofagia and other modernist currents, locating them within a broader field of cultural modernization. Combining extensive research with close readings of a range of visual cultural production, the volume brings to light a vast archive of art and images, all but unknown outside brazil.�2m�S SE-K-0029 9781108483049 1108483046 QRehHrCgP�6RN�OYKb�Q>The Cambridge Handbook Of Copyright Limitations And ExceptionsCambridge Law HandbooksShyamkrishna Balganesh550+While copyright law is ordinarily thought to consist primarily of exclusive rights, the regime's various exemptions and immunities from liability for copyright infringement form an integral part of its functioning, and serve to balance copyright's grant of a private benefit to authors/creators with the broader public interest.

For centuries, sunni muslims have practiced islam through the framework of the four legal schools. The 20th�century, however,�witnessed the rise of individuals who denounced the legal schools, highlighting cases where they contradict texts from the qur'n or sunna.

Yet, in the fifteenth century, open war was an infrequent occurrence in a region which is much better understood by historians of fourteenth-century anglo-scottish conflict, or of tudor responses to the so-called 'border reivers'. This first book-length study of england's far north in the fifteenth century addresses conflict, kinship, lordship, law, justice, and governance in this dynamic region. It traces the norms and behaviours by which local society sought to manage conflict, arguing that common law and march law were only parts of a mixed framework which included aspects of 'feud' as it is understood in a wider european context.nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[ 9780367192563 036719256X social theory�s�N�O�c�sQ�N'YkS�_̑�e�kW�\O�v���eThe Detective Of Modernity"Essays On The Work Of David Frisby(Classical And Contemporary Social Theory5This book explores the thought of  and is dedicated to  david frisby, one of the leading sociologists of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.

Intangible flow theory in economics: human participation in economic and societal production outlines a new theory that;challenges both economics and the relativism conveyed in social constructivism, poststructuralism and postmodernism. To mainstream economics and marxism, monetary flows transform us humans into commodities. To this new theory, flo< ws of economic elements as physical goods or money are consummated by intangible flows that cannot yet be precisely appraised at an actual or approximate value, for instance, workflows, service flows, information flows or communicational flows. The theory suggests a systematic alternative to refute the human commodity framework and interrelated conjectures (e.G. Human capital, human resources, human assets). Furthermore, it exhibits that economic and societal production is fully integrated on the biosphere.�~Nmf[ SE-F0-0045 9781108496230 1108496237lQqQ/e�QN�V�[�v\O(u��S�S0�~He0Θi��Te�Qe�c�e)Public Spending And The Role Of The State'History, Performance, Risk And RemediesLudger Schuknecht260kGiven high government spending, debt and the new challenges on the horizon, the themes of this work are more relevant than ever: the essential tool of spending by the state, its 'value for money', likely risks in the future, and the remedies to create lean, efficient and sustainable government.

In addition to disrupting ordinary fact-finding and causal inquiry, science can impact the framing of disputes and the standard of review. Judges must therefore adopt various tools to adjust the level of science allowed to enter their deliberations, which may fundamentally impact the legitimacy of their reasoning. While neglecting or replacing scientific authority can erode the convincing nature of judicial reasoning, the same authority, when treated properly, may lend persuasive force to adjudicatory findings, and buttress the legitimacy of judgments. In this work, katalin sulyok surveys the environmental case law of seven major jurisdictions and analyzes framing techniques, evidentiary procedures, causal inquiries and standards of review, offering valuable insight into how judges justify their choices between rival scientific claims in a convincing and legitimate manner.)Academic researchers, legal practitioners&Ofe'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[ 9781108422000 1108422004J6 t�g�_��eyr�R�e�v틃XRichard Strauss In ContextComposers In ContextMorten Kristiansen4009Richard strauss in context offers a distinctive approach to the study of a composer in that it places the emphasis on contextualizing topics rather than on biography and artistic output. One might say that it inverts the relationship between composer and context. Rather than studies of strauss's librettists that discuss the texts themselves and his musical settings, for instance, this book offers essays on the writers themselves: their biographical circumstances, styles, landmark works, and broader positions in literary history. Likewise, strauss's contributions to the concert hall are positioned within the broader development of the orchestra and trends in programmatic music.

This book traces the development of european spelling systems in the early modern era, and is unique in bringing together several strands of historical research, across a diverse range of germanic, romance and slavic languages, including polish, german, french, spanish, lithuanian, czech, croatian and english. Whilst each chapter includes a case study on a particular language or script, the volume in general follows a broad thread of discussion based on models and methods relevant to many languages, showing how empirical approaches can be applied across languages to enrich the field of historical orthography as a whole. The first volume to diachronically explore the standardization of spelling systems from a cross-linguistic perspective, this is an invaluable resource for specialists and those interested in historical european studies more broadly. 9781108491464 1108491464K4bS�e���y�emp�~KN��l�e�V�[�v�[hQ0:gONCgZThe Path To Genocide In Rwanda<Security, Opportunity, And Authority In An Ethnocratic StateAfrican Studies, 152Omar Shahabudin Mcdoom�The shocking characteristics of rwanda's genocide in 1994 have etched themselves indelibly on the global conscience. The path to genocide in rwanda combines extensive, original field data with some of the best existing evidence to evaluate the myriad theories behind the genocide and to offer a rigorous and comprehensive explanation of how and why it occurred, and why so many rwandans participated in it. Drawing on interviews with over three hundred rwandans, omar shahabudin mcdoom systematically compares those who participated in the violence against those who did not. He contrasts communities that experienced violence early with communities where violence began late, as well as communities where violence was limited with communities where it was massive. His findings offer new perspectives on some of the most troubling questions concerning the genocide, while also providing a broader engagement with key theoretical debates in the study of genocides and ethnic conflict.^�2m�S 9781108836975 1108836976 �N�v�u�N^y�vCg��Human Anguish And God's PowerCurrent Issues In Theology, 16 David Kelsey�Persons anguished by another's profound suffering are often outraged by well-intentioned efforts to console them which suggest that god 'sent' that horrific suffering to their loved one for a 'purpose' according to a tailor-made 'plan' for just that person. However, the outraged reaction simply deep< ens the anguish. This book argues that such 'consolation' is theologically problematic because it assumes that unrestricted power is what makes god 'god.' against that it outlines an account of 'who' and 'what' the triune god is, framed in terms of god's intrinsic 'glory,' the attractive and perfectly self-expressive self-giving in love that is god's life, and sets limits to the range of things we can say god 'does.' correlatively it offers an account of different senses in which god is 'sovereign' and 'powerful', one which reflects three ways god relates to all else: to create, to bless eschatologically, and to reconcile, as is scripturally narrated. 9781526493378 1526493373F2business & management (general) FU�yf[uf[`N�T1\NKb�Q7The Business Student's Guide To Study And Employability2nd Peter MorganSage Publications LtdSage 2020-11-28464xWritten in response to the pressures on universities to produce highly skilled and work-ready graduates and intended to map across a three-year business course, this book covers essential skills, from study, presentation and leadership to practical advice on securing that all-important job after university.

On one side, the reformation repudiated key aspects of medieval commemorative culture; on the other, traditional religion claimed that protestantism was a religion without memory. This volume shows how religious memory was sometimes attacked and extinguished, while at other times rehabilitated in a modified guise. It investigates how new modes of memorialisation were embodied in texts, material objects, images, physical buildings, rituals, and bodily gestures. Attentive to the roles played by denial, amnesia, and fabrication, it also considers the retrospective processes by which the english reformation became identified as an historic event. Examining dissident as well as official versions of this story, this richly illustrated, interdisciplinary collection traces how memory of the religious revolution evolved in the two centuries following the henrician schism, and how the reformation embedded itself in the early modern cultural imagination. 9781138642737 1138642738B0 epistemology L��R�Tf[�S_�N�[��Philosophy Of ActionA Contemporary Introduction2Routledge Contemporary Introductions To Philosophy Sarah PaulThis book offers an accessible and inclusive overview of the major debates in the philosophy of action.

The author draws on life history interviews with young adults of north african immigrant background, enrolled at or having recently graduated from the country s elite higher education institutions, the grandes �coles, to delve into largely under-researched pathways and give a voice to high-achieving members of a population that continues to be collectively associated with difficulties to 'integrate'. The volume constitutes the first sociological study to document, from the individual actor s perspective, the everyday experience of racism within france s elite educational institutions and to reveal the (upward) mobility experience to be informed by the interlocking effects of racial processes, immigrant ancestry, class background and gender.

It proposes a critical psychology that investigates user subjectivity as a function of capitalism and imperialism, arguing against punitive models of digital excesses and for a critique of the political economy of the internet affecting all users.Friedman explores the limitations of individual-centered remediations exemplified in the psychology of internet addiction. Furthermore, friedman outlines the self-creative actions of social media users, and the data processing that exploits them in order to urge psychologists to politicize rather than pathologize the sad effects of excessive net use.

For half of this time the city lay over 100 miles behind an 'iron curtain' that divided east from west, and was surrounded by communist east germany and the densest concentration of warsaw pact military forces in europe. From the vantage point high on the teufelsberg, british and american personnel constantly monitored the electronic emissions from the surrounding military forces, as well as high-level political intelligence. Today, the teufelsberg stands as a contemporary and spectacular ruin, representing a significant relic of a lost cyber space of cold war electronic emissions and espionage.

The procaccini s work is here analysed by interconnecting their individual stories and understanding their success as the combination of mutual artistic choices, high level of specialization and precise business organization. The book looks at this family of painters as entrepreneurs, emphasizing their conscious response to the requests of public and private patrons, as well as their ability to balance instances of originality and imitation in an era deeply touched by a wide range of artistic opportunities, including religious commissions, national and international patronage and multifaceted markets.

It examines mitchell s innovations in fourth-wall realism, opera and live cinema across major british and european institutions, bringing three decades of practice vividly to life. Informed by first-hand rehearsal observations and in-depth conversations with the director and her collaborators, fowler investigates the intense and immersive qualities of mitchell s distinctive theatrical realism and challenges mainstream narratives about realism as a defunct or inherently conservative genre. He explores mitchell s theatre  and its often polarised reception  to question familiar assumptions governing contemporary performance criticism, including common binaries that pit realism against radical experimentation, auteurs against texts, feminists against naturalism, and britain against europe. 9781138082366bgRz�/g 9780367356545 0367356546B82continental philosophy &Otf[��l�_�eh���EthicsNew Trajectories In LawLouis E. Wolcher This book examines ethics at the intersection of law and justice. If law and justice are concerned with collectively establishing the general terms on which the plurality called "we" share the earth as social beings, then ethics concerns the individual self s particular moral relationship with the other. Law, the acknowledged offspring of politics, represents the kind of might that most people accept as legitimate, at least most of the time. Justice, on the other hand, is supposed to vigilantly stand guard over law: to protect us against its biases and excesses, or, at the very least, to rise up and reproach the law whenever it permits or encourages injustice. But what if the belief that a particular legally-authorized state of affairs is "just"  a common enough feeling, especially amongst the privileged  or even "unjust" and in need of correction, were itself in need of a vigilant guardian? this book argues that ethics can and should stand guard over whatever image of justice and/or just law one happens to believe in. &Otf[�S��_�Tf[ � 1138082368 9781138185647 1138185647gRb��]\O�[�TOYbgR�v?e�l�STheatre Studios.A Political History Of Ensemble Theatre-making Tom Cornford376�Theatre studios explores the history of the studio model in england, first established by konstantin stanislavsky, jacques copeau and others in the early twentieth century, and later developed in the uk primarily by michel saint-denis, george devine, michael chekhov and joan littlewood, whose studios are the focus of this study. Cornford offers in-depth accounts of the radical, collective work of these leading theatre companies of the mid-twentieth century, considering the models of ensemble theatre-making that they developed and their remnants in the newly publicly-funded uk theatre establishment of the 1960s. In the process, this book develops an approach to understanding the politics of artistic practices rooted in the work of john dewey, antonio gramsci and the standpoint feminists. It concludes by considering the legacy of the studio movement for twenty-first-century theatre, partly by tracking its echoes in the work of secret theatre at the lyric, hammersmith (2013 2015). 9781138185630 9781492592006 1492592005 �Rϑ���~�v�yf[N�[��)Science And Practice Of Strength TrainingZatsiorsky, Vladimir 2020-06-10'Science and practice of strength training addresses the complexity of strength training programs while providing advice in customizing programs for athletes and other populations.

Setting out on an exploration of the city s districts beyond the palace walls, it offers many discoveries and surprises through direct contact with the urban fabric. This leads to an improved understanding of why jaipur is unusual among pre-modern indian cities, with its broad avenues dividing six urban quarters, which in turn contain networks of gridded streets.�]z��/gArvinius + Orfeus Publishing 9789462085534 9462085536�YUO�^ �pS�^?bK\��N_[pN:N�OHow To Build An Indian HouseThe Mumbai ExampleNai010 Publishers�How to build an indian house' focuses on one of mumbai s and india s perennial and most daunting questions: mass housing.

Spanning over six decades of activity, it offers a close reading of dine s complex artistic biography and oeuvre. Many of these works are considered precursors to some of the most interesting art being produced today. The happenings, in particular, which dine and his friends initiated in 1960 and are covered in great detail, were essential to the success of contemporary performance art. Besides reproductions of large-scale paintings, fetish objects, and minimalist sculptures, the book includes texts by the artist and in-depth critical analyses. 9786001523083 6001523088Behzad Golpaygany- O�� �\O�T�T;m�R3Behzad Golpaygany - Biography, Works And ActivitiesNazar Publishing�Iranian graphic designer b�hzad golpayegani (1938 1985) worked in 1970s for various journals and designed numerous book covers for franklin publications, a publisher of pocket-sized paperbacks. In those years he created a series entirely focused on typography, a first in the history of iranian graphic design. His cover designs result from a deep fascination with the structure of letters and composition of words, and he often experimented with positive and negative spaces, playing with different scales and empty spaces. This book is the result of nearly two years of research on golpayegani, a progressive designer whose work is now recognised as far ahead of its time. 9789811218866 9811218862 china studies�VE�'�^SO�|9ei��-N�V‰�pNV{eu+Reform Of The International Monetary System#Chinese Perspectives And StrategiesLi Xiao 2020-12-076This book proposes that the short-term goal of the current reform of the international monetary system should be a combination of controlling "imbalances" and "the risk of the dollar", namely using the balance of payments coordination mechanism to suppress risks by exchange rate cooperation. The reforms of international reserve currencies, international financial institutions, and international financial regulation provide a good external environment for the stable< development of the world economy. The book discusses the mechanisms that will continue to support the hegemony of the us dollar and the us dollar system in the future, including the commodity dollar return mechanism, the international debt repayment mechanism, the petroleum dollar pricing mechanism and the dollar rescue mechanism in financial crisis.�Academics, policymakers, professionals, industry researchers, undergraduate and graduate students interested in the international monetary systems, rmb internationalization and global financial risks.�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[ 9789811218774 9811218773corporate finance0Oe�NDMorimura Yasumasa - Want To Change The World? Be Seriously UnseriousLixil126�Yasumasa morimura began creating self-portraits by placing himself in works by other (famous) artists in 1985 and has since continued to explore this thematic approach. This publication appears despite the cancellation of a corresponding exhibition at the toyama prefectural museum of art & design, guest curated by the japanese appropriation artist. Rather than a  typical exhibition in which works are organised according to time periods and techniques, it draws from morimura s unique approach and introduces works divided across six themes. With its shift in perspective, the concept considers something that would never be realised in an ordinary collection exhibition. 9783030607227 3030607224F51transportation technology and traffic engineeringAmϑ�] z�{f�[���t���W@xNHh�Oxvz-A Concise Introduction To Traffic Engineering)Theoretical Fundamentals And Case Studies$Springer Tracts In Civil EngineeringMarco Guerrieri; Raffaele Mauro 2021-02-05191�This book covers a selection of fundamental topics of traffic engineering useful for highways facilities design and control.

Studies In Universal And Cultural HistoryRollinger, Robert Springer Vs 2020-06-05�The volume will focus on a comparative level on a specific group of states that are commonly labelled as  empires and that we encounter through all historical periods. Although they are very successful at the very beginning, like most empires are, this success is very ephemeral and transient. The era of conquest is never followed by a period of consolidation. Collapse and/or reduction to much smaller dimension run as fast as the process of wide-ranging conquest and expansion. The volume singles out a series of such  short-term empires and aims to< provide a methodologically clearly structured as well as a uniform and consistent approach by developing a general set of questions that guarantee the possibility to compare and distinguish.

It thus reflects upon the presentation in venice and related events. One of the most discerning features of  cosmo-eggs is that it emerged from diverse backgrounds, a collective of members who collaborated with each other as a single team. Just how the intentions and interests of the collective s individual members have been reflected and integrated in the exhibition is therefore examined from a slight distance, accompanied by texts which contemplate contemporary art in a wider sense. 9783909928576 3909928579 2019t^g�^t�X�VfN#The Most Beautiful Swiss Books 2019Die Sch�nsten Schweizer B�cherFederal Office Of Culture Bern�Das buch pr�sentiert die ergebnisse des j�hrlichen wettbewerbs 'die sch�nsten schweizer b�cher'.

It is thus integral to the very nature of the social , and the question of how society is kept together by a networkof agreements, conventions, exchanges, and codes. All of which mustbe traced down. The technologies of money discussed here by searle,ferraris, and condello show how we conceive the category of the social atthe intersection of individual and collective intentionality, documentality,and materiality. All of these dimensions, as the introduction to this volumedemonstrates, are of vital importance for legal theory and for a whole set oflegal concepts that are crucial in reflections on the relationship between law,philosophy, and society. 9780367191115Second Edition 9781526496836 1526496836 �SU\�_tf[: �V~��~xQxvzDevelopmental PsychologyRevisiting The Classic Studies*Psychology: Revisiting The Classic Studies#This book will introduce your students to studies in developmental psychology that changed the way we think about the discipline today.

While innovation is the fundamental driver of growth and prosperity, how the earliest stages of entrepreneurship are governed remains elusive. This book creates a new, institutional approach to understanding entrepreneurship before emphasizing how entrepreneurs create governance structures to coordinate new knowledge resources.Rather than the conventional view that entrepreneurship happens inside firms, this unique transaction-cost economics analysis of entrepreneurship suggests it might begin earlier in hybrid, polycentric self-governance structures, including the innovation commons. Allen explores and analyses various examples of these structures, including hackerspaces and the institutions coalescing around the development of the blockchain economy, along with the dynamics of how those institutions might collapse into firms.�In academia, readers will be those studying and researching institutional economics, political economy, entrepreneurial theory, and innovation economics.

Moreover, since 2017 china has become the world's largest crude oil importer, greatly increasing its reliance on imported energy.The international energy agency has defined energy security as "the uninterrupted availability of energy sources at an affordable price," employing metrics in various dimensions such as availability, affordability, accessibility and acceptability to measure the energy security of different nations.

A number of interrelated spatial perspectives on translation supported by empirical evidence are presented to help better understand the complexities between china and west in cultural exchanges and to offer a way of explaining what happens to translation and why it takes on a particular form. In the chequered history of chinese-western cultural exchange, effective communication has remained a great challenge exacerbated by the ultimate inescapability of linguistic and cultural incommensurability. It is therefore necessary to develop conceptual tools that can help shed light on the interactive association between performativity and space in translation.-N�V?e�l SE-C91-0439 9783030105754 303010575X Ye��N�Oo`�b/g~v�yhQfN6Encyclopedia Of Education And Information TechnologiesArthur Tatnall 2020-05-241801�This encyclopedia aims to offer researchers an indication of the breadth and importance of information systems in education, including the way it is being used, and could be used to enable learning and teaching.

The book focusses < on the performing arts, but draws from a rich diversity of academic fields to make the case for a radically interdisciplinary approach to audience research.The book s underlying thesis is that at the heart of audience research there is a mutual exchange of value wherein audiences ideally play the role of strategic partners in the mission fulfilment of arts organisations. Illustrating how audiences have traditionally been side-lined, homogenised and vilified, it contends that the future paradigm of audience studies should be based on an engagement model, wherein audiences take their rightful place as subjects rather than objects of empirical research.

Paige215�Based on a systematic sampling of nearly 2000 french and english novels from 1601 to 1830, this book's foremost aim is to ask precisely how the novel evolved. Instead of simply 'rising', as scholars have been saying for some sixty years, the novel is in fact a system in constant flux, made up of artifacts  formally distinct novel types  that themselves rise, only to inevitably fall. Nicholas d. Paige argues that these artifacts are technologies, each with traceable origins, each needing time for adoption (at the expense of already developed technologies) and also for abandonment. Like technological waves in more physical domains, the rises and falls of novelistic technologies don't happen automatically: writers invent and adopt literary artifacts for many diverse reasons. However, looking not at individual works but at the novel as a patterned system provides a startlingly persuasive new way of understanding the history and evolution of artforms. 9781108842761 11088427632eighteenth/century literature/ history of the book�R&O�e��eyri`NASkQN�~�vfNM|/Laurence Sterne And The Eighteenth-century BookHelen Williams217"Scrutinising sterne's fiction through a book history lens, helen williams creates novel readings of his work based on meticulous examination of its material and bibliographical conditions. Alongside multiple editions and manuscripts of sterne's own letters and works, a panorama of interdisciplinary sources are explored, including dance manuals, letter-writing handbooks, newspaper advertisements, medical pamphlets and disposable packaging. For the first time, this wealth of previously overlooked material is critically analysed in relation to the design history of tristram shandy, conceptualising the eighteenth-century novel as an artefact that developed in close conjunction with other media. In examining the complex interrelation between a period's literature and the print matter of everyday life, this study sheds new light on sterne and eighteenth-century literature by re-defining the origins of his work and of the eighteenth-century novel more broadly, whilst introducing readers to diverse print cultural forms and their production histories. 9781108496124 1108496121�s�N�[�l�vbMRw��n�tY��6RN��V�v�^�V�|^y1The Antebellum Origins Of The Modern Constitution/Slavery And The Spirit Of The American Founding.Cambridge Studies On The American ConstitutionSimon J. Gilhooley�This book argues that conflicts over slavery and abolition in the early american republic generated a mode of constitutional interpretation that remains powerful today: the belief that the historical spirit of founding holds authority over the current moment. Simon j. Gilhooley traces how debates around the existence of slavery in the district of columbia gave rise to the articulation of this constitutional interpretation, which constrained the radical potential of the constitutional text. To reconstruct the origins of this interpretation, gilhooley draws on rich sources that include historical newspapers, pamphlets, and congressional debates. Examining free black activism in the north, abolitionism in the 1830s, and the evolution of pro-slavery thought, this book shows how in navigating the existence of slavery in the district and the fundamental constitutional issue of the enslaved's personhood, antebellum opponents of abolition came to promote an enduring but constraining constitutional imaginary.

She makes the case that the mobilisation of ethics experts does not always arise from a motivation to rationalise governance. Instead, mobilising ethics experts - who are endowed with a unique double-edged authority, both 'democratic' and 'epistemic' - can help policy-makers manoeuvre policy conflicts on scientific and technological innovations and make their pro-science and innovation agendas possible. Bioethical expertise is indeed shaped in a political and iterative space between experts and those who do policy. 9781108830669 1108830668F6Lhistory of science/ history of technology/ history of empire/ global history^�V�yf[��~Y)R�N'Y�^�V�v5u5u�b�T5uirtImperial ScienceGCable Telegraphy And Electrical Physics In The Victorian British EmpireScience In History Bruce J.

International law can be defined as 'the rules governing the legal relationship between nations and states', but in reality it is much more complex, with political, diplomatic and socio-economic factors shaping the law and its application. This refreshingly clear, concise textbook encourages students to view international law as a dynamic system of organising the world. Bringing international law back to its first principles, the book is organised around four questions: where does it come from? to whom does it apply? how does it resolve conflict? and what does it say? building on these questions with both academic rigour and clarity of expression, professor klabbers breathes life and energy into the subject. 9781108732826 9781107183698 1107183693 �eB\!k�lt� gP��V�[�v�U?e"Effective Governance Under AnarchyHInstitutions, Legitimacy, And Social Trust In Areas Of Limited StatehoodTanja A.

Nearly a decade after these events, we see militaries across the region in power, once again performing critical roles in state politics. Taking as a point of reference five case studies where uprisings took place in 2011, tunisia, egypt, libya, yemen and syria, philippe droz-vincent explores how these armies were able to install themselves for decades under enduring authoritarian regimes, how armies reacted to the 2011 uprisings, and what role they played in the post-uprising regime re-formations or collapses. Devoting a chapter to monarchical armies with a special focus on saudi arabia and the uae, droz-vincent addresses whether monarchies radically differ from republics, to compare the foundational role of arab armies in state building, in the arab world and beyond. 9781108708685+nf�g�e�'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[,[r%m'Yf[NLu?e�l 1526496844 1529723086 9781108843843 1108843840Hpolitical economy/ environmental and energy policy/ comparative politics���nl��W�v?e�l�~Nm��]��TWS^��vΘ���T*Y3���(Political Economies Of Energy Transition/Wind And Solar Power In Brazil And South AfricaBusiness And Public PolicyKathryn HochstetlerlGlobal climate solutions depend on low-carbon energy transitions in developing countries, but little is known about how those will unfold.

The political economy of climate change set brazil and south africa on different tracks, with south africa's coal-based electricity system fighting against an existential threat. Since deforestation dominates brazil's climate emissions, climate concerns were secondary there for electricity planning. Both saw significant mobilization around industrial policy and cost and consumption issues, showing the importance of economic considerations for electricity choices in emerging economies.

Through meticulous analysis, lian explores holmes's fundamental ideas on law and its study. He puts "the path of the law" within the trajectory of holmes's jurisprudence, from earliest scholarship to the common law to the occasional pieces holmes wrote or delivered after joining the u.S. Supreme court. Lian takes a close look at the reactions "the path of the law" has evoked, both positive and negative, and restates the essay's core teachings for today's legal educators. Lian convincingly shows that holmes's "theory of legal study" broke down artificial barriers between theory and practice. For contemporary legal educators, stereoscopic law reformulates holmes's fundamental message that the law must been seen and taught three-dimensionally.�l�vt����lf[ � 9781108831291 110883129Xjinternational history/ military history/ modern european history/ modern british history/ colonial history,{N!kNLu'Yb�eg�v��V�Ta'Y)R�^�V�vMckS�T;� �3Britain And Italy In The Era Of The First World WarDefending And Forging EmpiresCambridge Military HistoriesStefano Marcuzzi348�This is an important reassessment of british and italian grand strategies during the first world war.

Drawing on rich comparative analysis and evidence from brazil, argentina, and colombia, the book opens up the 'black box' of police bureaucracies to show how police forces exert power and cultivate relationships with politicians, as well as how social inequality impedes change.

Adopting a new approach that focusses on the moral economy of elections, nic cheeseman, gabrielle lynch and justin willis show how elections are shaped by competing visions of what it means to be a good leader, bureaucrat or citizen. Using a mixed-methods study of elections in ghana, kenya and uganda, they explore moral claims made by officials, politicians, civil society, international observers and voters themselves. This radical new lens reveals that elections are the site of intense moral contestation, which helps to explain why there is such vigourous participation in processes that often seem flawed. 9781108404723 9781529702118 1529702119 >yO���w: �N'Y�0R�eSFrom Brains To Culture$Susan T.

Modern asset management draws on a wide-range of fields beyond financial theory: economics, financial accounting, econometrics/statistics, management science, operations research (optimization and monte carlo simulation), and more recently, data science (big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence). The challenge in writing an institutional asset management book is that when tools from these different fields are applied in an investment strategy or an analytical framework for valuing securities, it is assumed that the reader is familiar with the fundamentals of these fields. Attempting to explain strategies and analytical concepts while also providing a primer on the tools from other fields is not the most effective way of describing the asset management process.}Suitable for professional portfolio managers, security analysts as well as students focusing on investment management courses 9781786349361 1786349361 :ghVf[`NN�[ϑё���[��<Introduction To Machine Learning In Quantitative Finance, An!Advanced Textbooks In Mathematics Ni Hao Et Al 2020-12-03265[In today's world, we are increasingly exposed to the words "machine learning" (ml), a term which sounds like a panacea designed to cure all problems ranging from image recognition to machine language translation.

Membership in each category was established and evaluated socially as well as discursively. From clashes over admission to classrooms and communion to construction of the group's history, integration into the social fabric of the community served as both an index of identity and a medium through which contests over status and authority were conducted. The juxtaposition of patterns of belonging in second sophistic and early christian circles reveals a shared repertoire of technologies of self-definition, authorization and institutionalization and shows how each group manipulated and adapted those strategies to its own needs. This approach provides a more rounded view of the second sophistic and places the early christian formation of 'orthodoxy' in a fresh context. 9781107026384M���R�T'Yf[,6���'Yf[,&Ofe'Yf[,QReh'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,�T[O'Yf[,�efW�y'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,�R�]'Yf[mIg�wR!h,[r%m'Yf[,[r%m'Yf[ SE-K-0020 1108404723 1108708684 9781108834599 1108834590Wtwenty/first century literary studies/ literary theory/ publishing and printing historyfNM|0�e,g0�Z�N�peW[�e�N�v*jT���Book, Text, Medium)Cross-sectional Reading For A Digital Age@Cambridge Studies In Twenty-first-century Literature And CultureGarrett Stewart�Book, text, medium: cross sectional reading for a digital age utilizes codex history, close reading, and language philosophy to assess the transformative arc between medieval books and today's e-books.

The deeply felt but largely invisible purchase of liberal political ideas in iran challenges us to think more expansively about the trajectory of various intellectual developments since the emergence of a movement for reform and constitutionalism in the late nineteenth century.

Based on research in the democratic republic of congo< (drc) and the central african republic (car), peer schouten maps more than a thousand of these roadblocks to show how communities, rebels and state security forces forge resistance and power out of control over these narrow points of passage. Schouten reveals the connections between these roadblocks in central africa and global supply chains, tracking the flow of multinational corporations and un agencies alike through them, to show how they encapsulate a form of power, which thrives under conditions of supply chain capitalism. In doing so, he develops a new lens through which to understand what drives state formation and conflict in the region, offering a radical alternative to explanations that foreground control over minerals, territory or population as key drivers of central africa's violent history. 9781108713818 9781108830461 1108830463�israeli economy/ economies of the middle east/ innovation and growth/ labour productivity/ economics of defence/ tax policy/ fiscal policy/ monetary policy/ housing markets/ economics of education/ health system/ high/tech economy1995t^�2017t^�v�Nr�R�~Nm�^:W�~Nm-N�vIQNq_The Israeli Economy, 1995 2017$Light And Shadow In A Market EconomyAvi Ben-bassat600�This book describes and analyses developments in the israeli economy from 1995 to 2017. During this period, inflation was vanquished, the deficit in the balance of payments turned into a surplus, the public debt to gdp ratio sharply decreased, and unemployment has declined to an historical low. Nevertheless, the economy still suffers from many maladies: the productivity level is among the lowest in the developed world, and inequality has generally been on the rise. In the face of these threats to future growth and social cohesiveness, the question arises: has the reliance on market forces gone too far, and has the government retreated from its traditional tasks, tasks the private sector cannot (or does not) perform. 9781108820851 9781526494863 1526494868 SAGE�[�^�f�RKb�Q&The Sage Handbook Of Domestic Violence1123.The field of domestic violence research has expanded considerably in the past decade and now includes work conducted by researchers in many different disciplines, notably political science, public health, law, psychology, sociology, criminology, anthropology, family studies, and medicine.

Wild abandon considers how ecology's interaction with radical politics of authenticity in the twentieth century has kept that narrative alive in altered form. As ecology gained political momentum in the 1960s and 1970s, many environmentalists combined it with ideas borrowed from psychoanalysis and a variety of identity-based social movements. The result was an identity politics of ecology that framed ecology itself as an authentic identity position repressed by cultural forms, including social differences and even selfhood. Through readings of texts by edward abbey, simon ortiz, toni morrison, margaret atwood, and jon krakauer, among others, alexander menrisky argues that writers have both dramatized and critiqued this tendency, in the process undermining the concept of authenticity altogether and granting insight into alternative histories of identity and environment. 9781108835077 1108835074�Nr�RMR�v6��TNS�#W T N�v�S�S�~ȉYahweh Before Israel$Glimpses Of History In A Divine NameDaniel E. FlemingQYahweh is the proper name of the biblical god. His early character is central to understanding the foundations of jewish, christian, and islamic monotheism. As a deity, the name appears only in connection with the peoples of the hebrew bible, but long before israel, the name is found in an egyptian list as one group in the land of tent-dwellers, the shasu. This is the starting-point for daniel e. Fleming's sharply new approach to the god yahweh. In his analysis, the bible's 'people of yahweh' serve as a clue to how one of the bronze age herding peoples of the inland levant gave its name to a deity, initially outside of any relationship to israel. For 150 years, the dominant paradigm for yahweh's origin has envisioned borrowing from peoples of the desert south of israel. Fleming argues in contrast that yahweh was not taken from outsiders. 9781108842044 1108842046 �b�l;N�V�[�vS�['`l�T3The Inclusionary Turn In Latin American DemocraciesDiana KapiszewskizLatin american states took dramatic steps toward greater inclusion during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Bringing together an accomplished group of scholars, this volume examines this shift by introducing three dimensions of inclusion: official recognition of historically excluded groups, access to policymaking, and resource redistribution. Tracing the movement along these dimensions since the 1990s, the editors argue that the endurance of democratic politics, combined with longstanding social inequalities, create the impetus for inclusionary reforms. Diverse chapters explore how factors such as the role of partisansh< ip and electoral clientelism, constitutional design, state capacity, social protest, populism, commodity rents, international diffusion, and historical legacies encouraged or inhibited inclusionary reform during the late 1990s and early 2000s. 9781108842280 1108842283���^�v�SU\;NINt���l;N�]��v?e�l�~Nmf[Decadent Developmentalism*The Political Economy Of Democratic BrazilMatthew M. Taylor�Brazil features regularly in global comparisons of large developing economies. Yet since the 1980s, the country has been caught in a low-level equilibrium, marked by lackluster growth and destructive inequality. One cause is the country's enduring commitment to a set of ideas and institutions labelled developmentalism. This book argues that developmentalism has endured, despite hyperactive reform, because institutional complementarities across economic and political spheres sustain and drive key actors and strategies that are individually advantageous, but collectively suboptimal. Although there has been incremental evolution in some institutions, complementarities across institutions sustain a pattern of 'decadent developmentalism' that swamps systemic change. Breaking new ground, taylor shows how macroeconomic and microeconomic institutions are tightly interwoven with patterns of executive-legislative relations, bureaucratic autonomy, and oversight. 9781108483728 1108483720�Ts^�^����O�t��Y7h'`�[�[�s�Sc�~�Ts^�vq_�TPeacebuilding ParadigmsEThe Impact Of Theoretical Diversity On Implementing Sustainable Peace Henry Carey�Peacebuilding paradigms focuses on how seven paradigms from the comparative politics, international relations, and policy analysis subfields - realism, liberalism, constructivism, cosmopolitanism, critical theories, locality, and policy - analyze peacebuilding. The contributors explore the arguments of each paradigm, and then compare and contrast them. This book suggests that a hybrid approach that incorporates useful insights from each of these paradigms best explains how and why peacebuilding projects and policies succeed in some cases, fail in others, and provide lessons learned. Rather than merely using a theoretical approach, the authors use case studies to demonstrate why a focus on just one paradigm alone as an explanatory model is insufficient. This collection directly at how peacebuilding theory affects peacebuilding policies, and provides recommendations for best practices for future peacebuilding missions. 9781108836661 1108836666�N{|KNT�21N�~�v�eS0t���Tyb$RAfter The Human1Culture, Theory And Criticism In The 21st CenturyAfter Series, 6 Sherryl Vint�After the human provides a comprehensive overview of how a range of philosophical, ethical, and political ideas under the framework of posthumanism have transformed humanities scholarship today. Bringing together a range of interdisciplinary scholars and perspectives, it puts into dialogue the major influences from philosophy, literary study, anthropology, and science studies that set the stage for a range of new questions to be asked about the relationship of the human to other life. The book's central argument is that posthumanism's challenge to and disruption of traditional humanist knowledge is so significant as to presage a sea-change from the humanities into the posthumanities. After the human documents the emergence of posthumanist ideas in the fractures within traditional disciplines, examines the new objects of analysis that thus came into prominence, and theorizes new interdisciplinary methods of study that followed. 9781108819169 9781108487139 1108487130Uhistory and development of the social sciences/ economics in public policy after 1945��>yO�bT��V�v>yO�yf[NlQqQ?eV{Society On The Edge=Social Science And Public Policy In The Postwar United StatesPhilippe Fontaine%The social sciences underwent rapid development in post-war america. Problems once framed in social terms gradually became redefined as individual with regards to scope and remedy, with economics and psychology winning influence over the social sciences. By the 1970s, both economics and psychology had spread their intellectual remits wide: psychology's concepts suffused everyday language, while economists entered a myriad of policy debates. Psychology and economics contributed to, and benefited from, a conception of society that was increasingly skeptical of social explanations and interventions. Sociology, in particular, lost intellectual and policy ground to its peers, even regarding 'social problems' that the discipline long considered its settled domain. The book's ten chapters explore this shift, each refracted through a single 'problem': the family, crime, urban concerns, education, discrimination, poverty, addiction, war, and mental health, examining the effects an increasingly individualized lens has had on the way we see these problems. 9781108732192 9781526489142 1526489147SAGE�SU\�_tf[Kb�Q: �SU\�_tf[�v�W@x&Foundations Of Evolutionary Psychology�Evolutionary psychology is an important and rapidly expanding area in the life, social, and behavioral sciences, and this handbook represents the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference text in the field today.

For several years, only economist paul douglas and a few collaborators used the technique, while vigorously defending it against numerous critics. By the 1950s, however, several economists beyond douglas's circle were using the technique, and by the 1970s, douglas's regression, and more sophisticated procedures inspired by it, had become standard parts of the empirical economist's toolkit. This volume is the story of the cobb-douglas regression from its introduction to its acceptance as general-purpose research tool. The story intersects with the histories of several important empirical research programs in twentieth century economics, and vividly portrays the challenges of empirical economic research during that era.

Stravinsky's early, often traumatic upbringing is examined in depth, particularly in the context of his brother roman's death, and religious sensibilities within the family. Further essays consider stravinsky's years in exile at the centre of dynamic and ever-evolving cultural environments, the composer constantly refining his idiom and re-defining his aesthetics against a backdrop of world events and personal tragedy.

Written in ad 310, two years before constantine's capture of rome and his acceptance of christianity, the speech gives a unique insight into the evolution of an imperial persona. This commentary examines the literary context of the panegyric and the role of the classical literary and rhetorical tradition in the recreation of constantine's image. From the outset, the orator praises constantine as separate from the imperial college: a deus praesens, god manifest, to the people of gaul. He uses lucan and caesar to link maximian's bid for power with the civil war between caesar and pompey while vergilian allusion associates constantine with augustus. 9781108835848 1108835848comparative private law�y�l�k��xvz�[�����ir0Hh�O0D��e7An Introduction To The Comparative Study Of Private LawReadings, Cases, Materials James Gordley700/This collection of readings places side by side the principal doctrines of contracts, torts, unjust enrichment, and property in the cases of the united states, england, france, germany and china.

Is international law really law? the answer depends on what makes law. Does th< e existence of law depend on coercive enforcement? or institutions such as courts? or fidelity to the requirements of the rule of law? or conformity to moral standards? answers to these questions are essential for determining the truth or falsity of international legal skepticism, and understanding why it matters. Is international law morally defensible? this book makes a start to answering that question by engaging with recent debates on the nature and grounds of human rights, the moral justifiability of the law of war, the concept of a crime against humanity, the moral basis of universal jurisdiction, the propriety of international law governing secession, and the justice of international trade law. 97813165035849&Ofe'Yf[,&Ofe'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[,[r%m'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[ SE-B0-0015 9781108836180 1108836186 �VE��l-N�v^��VE�'`fkň�Q�z6Non-international Armed Conflicts In International LawYoram Dinstein 9781108799447 9781526487209 1526487209"politics & international relations T�s�Nl�|;NINN�ehQtS%Populism Versus The New Globalization Sage Swifts Barrie Axford 2020-11-15hPopulism and globalization are shorthand for the temper of our times. Populism is usually cast as globalization s nemesis, a backlash against worldwide connectivity, while globalization is often said to be in retreat or even demise. This book takes issue with both interpretations, claiming instead that while populism of all shades tends to be anti-globalist, the globalism it is pitted against has changed dramatically in recent years and is increasingly decentred, destabilized, contingent, multipolar, and multidirectional.

Yet, despite his pugnacity, he was not a professional soldier; he was an untrained amateur who was neither forced into battle nor adequately remunerated for the risks he faced in combat. As such, when he took his place in the phalanx, when he met his enemy, when he fought, killed and died, he did so largely as an act of will. By applying modern theories of combat motivation, this book seeks to understand that will, to explore the psychology of the athenian hoplite and to reveal how that impressive warrior repeatedly stifled his fears, mustered his courage and willingly plunged himself into the ferocious savagery of close-quarters battle. 9781107020610G���R�T'Yf[,6���'Yf[,&Ofe'Yf[,QReh'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,�T[O'Yf[,�efW�y'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,�R�]'Yf[mIg�wR!h,[r%m'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[ 9781526427731 1526427737�]\O-N�vt^��: �~�~0�~�~�Tp���v!j�|LuP� Age At Work<Ambiguous Boundaries Of Organizations, Organizing And AgeingJeff Hearn And Wendy ParkinLAge at work explores the myriad ways in which  age is at  work across society, organizations and workplaces, with special focus on organizations, their boundaries, and marginalizing processes around age and ageism in and across these spaces.

The volume examines the w< ork of twenty judges from fifteen jurisdictions, each of whom stood out individually among their fellow judges and had a unique impact on the trajectory of constitutional law. The chapters ask: what makes a towering judge; what are the background conditions that foster or deter the rise of towering judges; whether towering judges, on balance, are positive or detrimental for constitutional systems; how towering judges differ from one jurisdiction to another; how political and historical developments relate to this phenomenon; and how it fits within global constitutionalism. The answers to these questions offer important insight into exactly how these judges were able to shine to an uncommon degree in a profession where individualism is not always looked on favorably.

Razing kids analyzes the relationship between the postwar demographic explosion and the birth of postwar ecology. In the american west, especially, workers, policymakers, and reformers interwove hopes for youth, environment, and the future. They linked their anxieties over children to their fears of environmental risk as they debated the architecture of wartime playgrounds, planned housing developments and the impact of radioactive particles released from distant hinterlands.

DeldonnaFThe music of early modern naples and its renowned artistic traditions remain a fruitful area for scholars in eighteenth-century studies. Contemporary social, political, and artistic conditions had stimulated a significant growth of music, musicians and culture in the kingdom of naples from the beginning of the seventeenth century. Although eighteenth-century neapolitan opera is well documented in scholarship, historians have paid much less attention to the simultaneous cultivation of instrumental genres. Yet the culture of instrumental music grew steadily and by its end became an exclusive area of focus for the royal court, a remarkable departure from past norms of patronage. By bridging this gap, anthony r.

These theories embody values, such as equality, reciprocity and rationality, that are highly prized within our culture. Yet a closer inspection reveals that these features exclude other important values, relations and even persons from the realm of contractual morality and justice, especially people with severe intellectual disabilities. Jonas-s�bastien beaudry explores the moral status of intellectually disabled people in social contract thought and argues that this tradition needs to be revisited to include the most vulnerable. Addressing this problem will have concrete repercussions in law and policy, because many issues that people with disabilities face are connected to deeply rooted assumptions about their status as full citizens or full members of our moral, political and legal communities.Graduate students SE-D9-0463 9781108841733 1108841732 �VE��NCg�l-N�v=\#�IN�R;Due Diligence Obligations In International Human Rights LawMaria Monnheimer�With the importance of non-state actors ever increasing, the traditional state-centric approach of international law is being put to the test.

To address these challenges, this book makes a case for extraterritorial due diligence obligations of states in international human rights law. It traces back how due diligence obligations evolved on the international plane and develops a general analytical framework making the broad and vague notion of due diligence more approachable. The framework is applied to different fields of international law which provides guidance on how due diligence obligations can be better conceptualized. Drawing inspiration from these developments, the book analyses how extraterritorial human rights due diligence obligations could operate in practice and foster global human rights protection. 9781108493840 110849384X3american literary studies/ environmental humanities ��V�ef[N�eS/T:yU_-Apocalypse In American Literature And Culture3Cambridge Themes In American Literature And CultureJohn Hay3The idea of america has always encouraged apocalyptic visions.

In doing so, it offers an innovative approach to examining the history and culture of development through the lens of the development episteme, which has been foundational to the 'idea of africa' in western discourses since the early 1800s. The study weaves together an historical narrative of how the idea of development emerged with an account of the policies and practices of development in colonial and postcolonial africa. The book highlights four enduring themes in african development, including their present-day ramifications: domesticity, education, health, and industrialization. Offering a balance between historical overview and analysis of past and present case studies, elisabeth mcmahon and corrie decker demonstrate that africans have always co-opted, challenged, and reformed the idea of development, even as the western-centric development episteme presumes a one-way flow of ideas and funding from the west to africa.8Undergraduate students, graduate students, professionals 9781107503229 SE-K-0117 9781529732160 1529732166ۏL�yb$R'`xvzDoing Critical ResearchMats Alvesson And Stanley Deetz�This title builds on the success of doing critical management research which has proven to be a seminal text in the 20 years since publication.

Yet, as h�rica valladares argues in this ground-breaking study, in the second half of the first century bce roman poets, artists, and their audience became increasingly interested in describing, depicting, and visualizing the more sentimental aspects of amatory experience. During this period, we see two important and simultaneous developments: latin love elegy crystallizes as a poetic genre, while a new style in roman wall painting emerges. Valladares' book is the first to correlate these two phenomena properly, showing that they are deeply intertwined. Rather than postulating a direct correspondence between images and texts, she offers a series of mutually reinforcing readings of painting and poetry that ultimately locate the invention of a new romantic ideal within early imperial debates about domesticity and the role of citizens in roman society. 9781108836647 110883664X�^�_�v�b��ƋN�bb_b����Q(W�~���v,g(�)Kant On Self-knowledge And Self-formationThe Nature Of Inner ExperienceKatharina T. Kraus]As the pre-eminent enlightenment philosopher, kant famously calls on all humans to make up their own minds, independently from the constraints imposed on them by others. Kant's focus, however, is on universal human reason, and he tells us little about what makes us individual persons. In this book, katharina t. Kraus explores kant's distinctive account of psychological personhood by unfolding how, according to kant, we come to know ourselves as such persons. Drawing on kant's critical works and on his lectures and reflections, kraus develops the first textually comprehensive and systematically coherent account of our capacity for what kant calls 'inner experience'.

In this book, robyn faith walsh argues that the synoptic gospels were written by elite cultural producers working within a dynamic cadre of literate specialists, including persons who may or may not have been professed christians. Comparing a range of ancient literature, her ground-breaking study demonstrates that the gospels are creative works produced by educated elites interested in judean teachings, practices, and paradoxographical subjects in the aftermath of the jewish war and in dialogue with the literature of their age. 9781108494380 1108494382�VE��l6R�[ O��y�[L��R�Tfk�RO(u$Publicity In International Lawmaking&Covert Operations And The Use Of ForceMarie Aronsson-storrierQThis book explores how best to recalibrate our understanding of international lawmaking through the lens of increased reporting and legal debate around covert and quasi-covert uses of force. Recent changes in practice and communication call for closer attention to be paid to the requirement of publicity for state practice, since they challenge the perception of the concepts 'public' and 'covert', and thus raise questions as to the impact that covert and quasi-covert acts do and should have on the development of international law. It is argued that, in order to qualify as such practice, acts must be both publicly known and acknowledged. The book further examines how state silence around covert and quasi-covert operations has opened up significant space for legal scholars and other experts to influence the development of international law.<Academic researchers, legal practitioners, graduate students 9781108491983 11084919870theology/ classical philosophy/ history of ideas �WcwYe�v�g�b�V;NIN��S�SChristian PlatonismAlexander J. B. HamptonzPlatonism has played a central role in christianity and is essential to a deep understanding of the christian theological tradition. At times, platonism has constituted an essential philosophical and theological resource, furnishing christianity with an intellectual framework that has played a key role in its early development, and in subsequent periods of renewal. Alternatively, it has been considered a compromising influence, conflicting with the faith's revelatory foundations and distorting its inherent message. In both cases the fundamental importance of platonism, as a force which christianity defined itself by and against, is clear. Written by an international team of scholars, this landmark volume examines the history of christian platonism from antiquity to the present day, covers key concepts, and engages issues such as the environment, natural science and materialism. 9781108495721 1108495729 QReh�VE��l�bJT ,{190wSInternational Law ReportsInternational Law Reports, 190Christopher Greenwood800�Decisions of international courts and arbitrators, as well as judgments of national courts, are fundamental elements of modern public international law.

Focusing on mythical narratives of metamorphosis, it investigates the aesthetic and ontological questions raised by fantastic stories of musical origins. Each chapter opens with an ancient text devoted to a musical metamorphosis (of a girl into a bird, a nymph into an echo, men into cicadas, etc.) and reads that text as a meditation on an aesthetic and ontological question, in dialogue with 'contemporary' debates  contemporary with debates in the greco-roman culture that gave rise to the story, and with modern debates in the posthumanities about what it means to be a human animal enmeshed in a musicking environment. 9781108485036 1108485030greek literature and culture�SxQ ^J��ef[-N�vUS�N�� N��Nir;NSO�v�Nh�4Solo Dance In Archaic And Classical Greek LiteratureRepresenting The Unruly Body Sarah Olsen� ancient greek dance traditionally evokes images of stately choruses or lively dionysiac revels  communal acts of performance. This is the first book to look beyond the chorus to the diverse and complex representation of solo dancers in archaic and classical greek literature. It argues that dancing alone signifies transgression and vulnerability in the greek cultural imagination, as isolation from the chorus marks the separation of the individual from a range of communal social structures. It also demonstrates that the solo dancer is a powerful figure for literary exploration and experimentation, highlighting the importance of the singular dancing body in the articulation of poetic, narrative, and generic interests across greek literature. Taking a comparative approach and engaging with current work in dance and performance studies, this book reveals the profound literary and cultural importance of the unruly solo dancer in the ancient greek world. 9781108842266 1108842267[law of the sea/ environmental law/ climate change/ law and policy/ public international lawwm m�lNlP�SS�㉳Q�eHh�TP�6R�V }%The Law Of The Sea And Climate ChangeSolutions And ConstraintsElise JohansenOur oceans are suffering under the impacts of climate change.

By identifying the potential and constraints of the law of the sea regime in supporting and complementing the climate regime in the mitigation of and adaptation to climate change, this book offers a new perspective on the law of the sea and its capacity to evolve to respond to systemic challenges, and its potential to adapt and ensure a resilient and sustainable future. 9781108487689 11084876889regulation of migration within the european union/ brexit'k2m>yO0�yl�T�l�_� b�N -N�v +R�N *European Societies, Migration, And The LawThe  others' Amongst  us' Moritz JesseDNot a day passes without political discussion of immigration.

The tenets of common-sense philosophy, while in some sense obvious and unsurprising, give rise to powerful arguments that can shed light on fundamental philosophical issues, including the perennial problem of scepticism and the emerging challenge of scientism. This companion offers an exploration of common-sense philosophy in its many forms, tracing its development as a concept and considering the roles it has been assigned to play throughout the history of philosophy. Containing fifteen newly commissioned chapters from leading experts in the history of philosophy, epistemology, the philosophy of science, moral philosophy and metaphysics, the volume will be an essential guide for students and scholars hoping to gain a greater understanding of the value and enduring appeal of common-sense philosophy. 9781108469364���R�T'Yf[,���R�T'Yf[,6���'Yf[,6���'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN�� SE-B5-0036 1526427729 9781446274286 1446274284 '`�ST�T>yO��{�NSexualities And SocietyAn Introduction Megan Todd�Sexualities and society adopts a fresh, sociological perspective to explore the development of sexualities across both public and private spheres, giving thoughtful consideration to heterosexualities, cis, bi and trans identities.

It offers a unique view of the cosmos, god and their relationship, which was inspired by aristotle but written by a later author. The author provides an outline of cosmology, geography and meteorology, only to argue that a full understanding of the cosmos cannot be achieved without a proper grasp of god as its ultimate cause. To ensure such a grasp, the author provides a series of twelve carefully chosen interlocking analogies, building a complex picture in the reader's mind. The work develops a distinctly aristotelian picture of god and the cosmos while paying tribute to pre-aristotelian philosophers and avoiding open criticism of rival schools of philosophy. De mundo exercised considerable influence in late antiquity and then in the renaissance and early modern times. 9781108486866 110848686X;international business/ emerging market studies/ innovationegꁰetQ^:W�vR�e��N�v�v!j�N�0R���[� Innovation From Emerging MarketsFrom Copycats To LeadersFernanda Cahen$In recent years, emerging markets have come to represent the largest share of global gdp and have made gains in economic development and political influence.

This book introduces a framework that integrates the ideas of wealth creation and human rights, which is illustrated by multiple corporate examples, and provides a sharp critique of the maximizing shareholder value ideology. By defining the purpose of business enterprises as creating wealth in a comprehensive sense, encompassing natural, economic, human and social capital while respecting human rights, enderle draws attention to the fundamental importance of public wealth, without which private wealth cannot be created. This framework further identifies the limitations of the market institution and self-regarding motivations by demonstrating that the creation of public wealth requires collective actors and other-regarding motivations. 9781108485722 1108485723�~�S�]�N�Q�z�?Q�z0�Ts^�NAmN>yOS-Experiencing The Israeli-palestinian Conflict/Children, Peace Communication And Socialization Yael Warshel�Over the last eighty years there has been a global rise in 'peace communication' practice, the use of interpersonal and mass communication interventions to mediate between peoples engaged in political conflict. In this study, yael warshel analyses israeli and palestinian versions of sesame street which targeted negative inter-group attitudes and stereotypes. Merging communication, peace and conflict studies, social psychology, anthropology, political science, education, middle eastern and childhood studies, this book provides a template to think about how audiences receive, interpret, use and are influenced by peace communication. By picking apart the text and subtext of the kind of media these specific audiences of children consume, warshel examines how they interpret 'peace communication' interventions, are socialised into palestinians, jewish israelis and arab/palestinian israelis, political opinions they express, and violence they reproduce. 9781108835312 1108835317�N*NqQ�T?eSO�TN*N O�~�1810t^�2020t^�vzf)R�[?e�S Five Republics And One Tradition1A History Of Constitutionalism In Chile 1810 2020$Cambridge Studies In Law And SocietyPablo Ruiz-tagle SE-I1-0007 9781108478830 1108478832$7uP[l�i�v�lR�1603t^�1660t^�yOq_�T�_tf[�l��S8^Ƌ�v�e_�Tb_`"The Psychology Of Social Influence-Modes And Modalities Of Shifting Common Sense Gordon Sammut�This volume brings together the full range of modalities of social influence - from crowding, leadership, and norm formation to resistance and mass mediation - to set out a challenge-and-response 'cyclone' model. The authors use real-world examples to ground this model and review each modality of social influence in depth. A 'periodic table of social influence' is constructed that characterises and compares exercises of influence in practical terms. The wider implications of social influence are considered, such as how each exercise of a single modality stimulates responses from other modalities and how any everyday process is likely to arise from a mix of influences. The book demonstrates that different modalities of social influence are tactics that defend, question, and develop 'common sense' over time and offers advice to those studying in political and social movements, social change, and management. 9781108402897 1526478943 1526492377 1529700736 1526476347 9781108823357 1108823351QReh�S���[��'The Cambridge Introduction To Narrative%Cambridge Introductions To LiteratureH.

Its more than 30 million people are sharply differentiated by economic class, religion and caste, education, language, and migration status. Its 45,000 square kilometres is a tapestry of spaces - ghettoes, slums, enclaves, institutional areas, planned and unplanned and authorized and unauthorized colonies, forests and agricultural fields. In some ways it is a dynamic society aspiring to global city grandeur; in other ways it is a bastion of tradition, sectarianism and hierarchy. Colossus details these realities and paradoxes under three themes: social change, community and state, and inequality.

Beginning with an account of egypt's history before the old kingdom, she examines the basis of kingship and its legitimacy. The heart of her study is an exploration of the king's constant emphasis on his relationship to his divine parents, the sun god ra and his mother, the goddess hathor, who were two of the most important deities backing the rule of a divine king. Sabbahy focuses on the cardinal importance of this relationship, which is reflected in the king's monuments, particularly his pyramid complexes, several of which are analysed in detail.

TrevisanvThis practical, user-friendly resource helps students successfully complete an evaluation capstone: a dissertation, thesis, or culminating project where a student conducts an evaluation as their capstone experience. Authors tamara m. Walser and michael s. Trevisan present a framework to support students and faculty in maximizing student development of evaluator competencies, addressing standards of the evaluation profession, and contributing to programs and disciplinary knowledge. Their framework, and this book, is organized by six fundamentals of evaluation practice: quality; stakeholders; understanding the program; values; approaches; and maximizing evaluation use. Throughout the book they use the metaphor of the journey to depict the processes and activities a student will experience as they navigate an evaluation capstone and the six fundamentals of evaluation practice. 1529732174 1526490773 9781071816202 1071816209;����VR_: eQ�Logistic RegressionA Primer0Quantitative Applications In The Social SciencesFred C.

Scudder argues that listening is key; in a democracy, citizens do not have to agree with their political opponents, but they do have to listen to them. Being heard is what ensures we have a say in the laws to which we are held. While listening is admittedly difficult, this book investigates how to motivate citizens to listen seriously, attentively, and humbly, even to those with whom they disagree.oStudents and scholars of political theory, deliberative democracy, political behavior, democratic deliberation. 9780198868767 0198868766_����.UN�eyO�S�V'The Social Causes Of Health And DiseaseWilliam C.

It posits that borders do not merely correspond to states boundaries: indeed, while remaining a fundamental tool for asserting states power, they are in fact a collection of constantly changing spatial limits. Consequently, the book approaches borders as context-specific limits and revisits notions traditionally linked to them (jurisdiction, sovereignty, responsibility, individual rights), while also adopting the innovative approach of viewing borders as phenomena of both closedness and openness. 9783030274641 3030274640"assessment/ testing and evaluation^��klSYe��ċ0O��['Yeuw\f[uN�[w�~�#Decolonizing Educational Assessment(Ontario Elementary Students And The EqaoArdavan Eizadirad 2020-09-20255uThis book examines the history of standardized testing in ontario leading to the current context and its impact on racialized identities, particularly on grade 3 students, parents, and educators.

The role of sociology in the construction of a science of the  human has been substantial, building representations of the human sphere of life as unique. Within the sociological tradition however, animals have often been invisible, even non-existent. Through in-depth comparisons of the texts of prominent early sociologists emile durkheim and edward westermarck, tuomivaara shows that despite this exclusion, representations of animals and human-animal relations were far more varied in early works than in the later sociological cannon.

It adopts a transmedia and transhistorical approach to a subject that has been dominated by the study of "original pronunciation." yet the op project avoids linguistically "foreign" characters such as othello because of the additional complications their "aberrant" speech poses to the reconstruction process. It also evades discussion of contemporary, global practices and, underpinning the enterprise, is the search for an aural "purity" that arguably never existed. By contrast, this collection attends to foreign speech patterns in both the early modern and postmodern periods, including indian, east asian and south african, and explores how accents operate as "metasigns" reinforcing ethno-racial stereotypes and social hierarchies.

Students need to be actively engaged in seeking, sense-making and acting upon any information provided to them in order to develop and improve. Feedback can thus be understood as not just the giving of information, but as a complex process integral to teaching and learning in which both teachers and students have an important role to play. 9789811396427 9811396426�Ǐup;m�v�|�~�{tegl��S�~�~>Transforming Organizations Through Flexible Systems ManagementFlexible Systems ManagementP.K.

Much has changed in many arenas of life and the general situation seems to be getting worse by the day. This is a world that still seems to be in a pretty dismal condition and offers little to no prospect for progress of improvement. Today, people appear to be inclined toward greed, oppression, violence, threat, conquest, exploitation and even self-exploitation. For example, poverty is pushing more people into despondency and this in some cases has resulted in people fleeing their homelands in search of supposedly better lives in the developed nations. Some people are fleeing their homelands as refugees, seeking refuge in other developed countries. Many who take this path risk their lives through running away or escaping across unfriendly and wild oceans where many drown and die before reaching their destiny. 9781536182996 1536182990 >yOf[xvzۏU\0,{30wSAdvances In Sociology Research Volume 30Jared A.

Through a close analysis of the utrecht chronicle of the teutonic order and its manuscripts, and by exploiting a wide range of scholarly techniques, from traditional philology and extensive codicological examinations to modern digital humanities techniques, the book argues that the recently resurfaced vienna manuscript is actually an author s copy, written in direct cooperation with the original author. This important assertion leads to a reinterpretation of the text, its sources and composition, authorship, and the context in which it was conceived.

Yet, absent in biblical scholarship is a thorough and critical examination of the instrumentality of the discipline s master archives for elite power structures. Addressing this gap in biblical scholarship lies central to this book. Interrogated here is a premier repository or master archive of the discipline: the british museum. Using an assemblage of critical theories from archival discourse to postcolonial studies, space theory to governmentality studies, the focal point of this book is at the intersections of the museum s rise to scientific prominence, the british empire, and the conferring of scientific authority to modern biblical critics in the nineteenth century. 9783030256685 3030256685'k2m�v�^�b0Wt�T'k2m0W�e�v\O(uCGeographies Of Asylum In Europe And The Role Of European Localities Birgit Glorius; Jeroen DoomernikThis open access book describes how the numerous arrivals of asylum seekers since 2015 shaped reception and integration processes in europe.

The events of september 11, 2001, changed this as insurers realized the extent of possible terrorism losses. Congress responded to the disruption in the insurance market by passing the terrorism risk insurance act of 2002 (p.L. 107-297). The goals of tria are to (1) protect consumers by addressing market disruptions and ensuring the continued widespread availability and affordability of commercial property/casualty insurance for terrorism risk; and (2) allow for a transitional period for the private markets to stabilize, resume pricing of such insurance, and build capacity to absorb any future losses, while preserving state insurance regulation and consumer protections.

Struggles for democratic change are periods of intense contest over the transformation of citizenship and the reconfiguration of political power. These democratization conflicts are played out within an increasingly complex media ecology where traditional modes of communication merge with new digital networks, thus bringing about multiple platforms for journalists and political actors to promote and contest competing definitions of reality. 9789813292147 9813292148 demography pS�^�N�SN�Sc�~�SU\/Population And Sustainable Development In IndiaAalok Ranjan Chaurasia]This book addresses central issues related to population and sustainable development in india, the second most populous country in the world.

In contrast, this book adopts a raciolinguistic perspective that points to the contradictory role that these programs play in both reproducing and challenging racial hierarchies. The book includes 11 chapters that adopt a range of methodological techniques (qualitative, quantitative and textual), disciplinary perspectives (linguistics, sociology and anthropology) and language foci (spanish, hebrew and korean) to examine the ways that dual language education programs in the us often reinforce the racial inequities that they purport to challenge. 9781800410046 9781788929882 1788929888 �S�Ye��N�S��W@x3Foundations Of Bilingual Education And Bilingualism7thColin Baker; Wayne E WrightThe seventh edition of this bestselling textbook has been extensively revised and updated to provide a comprehensive and accessible introduction to bilingualism and bilingual education in an everchanging world.

The power to analyze and synthetize thought-complexes is the most fruitful endowment of the intellectual life. Expression without adequate reflection is productive of superficiality.

It argues that frank knight, frank fetter, herbert davenport, philip wicksteed and j.B. Clark among others improved on the original austrian theory by menger and bohm-bawerk by providing a coherent subjectivist foundation for the theories of production and distribution. They succeeded whereeconomic theory before them failed  to develop the theories of interest, profit, wages and rents based solely on the principles of subjective value and marginal utility, eschewing the last remnants of the old cost of production models. This bookrepresents a look at whatmainstream economic theory might have looked like had the erasure of mengerian austrian price theory by marshallian and walrasian thoeries not taken place, and had the improvements and refinements of the mengerian tradition, itself done by the anglo-saxon followers of menger, been fully appropriated. 9780367732585 0367732580discourse analysis�ы݋�Discourse In Translation(This book explores the discourse in and of translation within and across cultures and languages.

The dominant medium of instruction in the universities is english and, to a much lesser extent, afrikaans, but only a minority of the national population are native speakers of these languages. Nine other languages can be media of instruction in schools, which makes the transition to tertiary education difficult enough in itself for students from these schools. The focus of this book is on procedures for assessing the academic language and literacy levels and needs of students, not in order to exclude students from higher education but rather to identify those who would benefit from further development of their ability in order to undertake their degree studies successfully. 9781536185072 1536185078�zt^xvzStudies Of Childhood James Sully 2020-08-26373BThis book is not a complete treatise on child-psychology, but deals with certain aspects of childhood that are of interest: play, imagination, language, fear, morality and discipline.

The book explores the history, policies, and practices of an adolescent newcomer program in central ohio, in the us midwest, that seeks to provide an equitable and engaging education to its students. It addresses, on the one hand, positive, progressive institutional responses, including an embrace of translanguaging and a willingness to acknowledge and build on students' languacultural backgrounds. On the other hand, the book explores the effects of inconsistent, inefficient and sometimes nonsensical patterns in these responses. The book analyzes student outcomes and argues that, although some students are well-served by the program, tensions in the program lead to uneven, and even troubling, behavior and results, ranging from poor academic performance to dropping out. 9781788927574 9789069183138 9069183137y��Y�e�Ng��b�N�e0TX-N�v#W�N&James Lee Byars.

A reconsideration of established theories and axiomatic findings on regulatory phenomena is an essential part of this discourse. There is indeed an urgent need for discontinuity regarding what we (think we) know about, among other things, law, legality, sovereignty and political legitimacy, power relations, institutional design and development, and pluralist dynamics of ordering under processes of globalisation and transnationalism. 9783030247041 SE-B-0345 9783030253189 303025318Xcreativity and arts educationz�/gYe�[�QY�v�y�R�ZSO�sQ�l���N �zz���T͑��'`0Mobile Media In And Outside Of The Art Classroom2Attending To Identity, Spatiality, And MaterialityJuan Carlos CastroThis edited volume explores a range of educational effects on student learning that resulted from a long-term study using a creative visual arts curriculum designed for mobile media (smartphones and tablets) and used in art classrooms.

In determining upon an era for the commencement of this work, kerr was led, from a consideration of the accidental discovery of iceland by the norwegians in the ninth century, to adopt that period as the beginning of the series, both because the commencement of modern maritime discovery took place during the reign of a british sovereign, and because we derive the earliest written accounts of any of these discoveries from the pen of that excellent prince. It is true that the first accidental discovery of iceland appears to have been made in 861, eleven years before the accession of alfred to the throne; yet, as the actual colonization of that island did not take place till the year 878, the seventh of his glorious reign, we have been induced to distinguish the actual commencement of maritime discovery by the modern european nations as coinciding with his era. 9786188434196 618843419X Xbm^�b-�m n��'f"Tolo Parra - Obscuria De ProfundisVoidfTolo para employs everyday objects that correspond with allegorical objects in the cosmos in a search for visual answers to the eternal riddle of existence.

It is so pervasive in human interactions that attempts to study it are often met with ridicule. In the organization literature, followership, a complementary role to leadership, was often ignored until recently when scholars observed that followers have as much a role to play in the leader-follower relationship. Theoretical perspectives of strategic followership focuses on one type of followership  strategic  which is an emergent phenomenon. Similar to leadership, followership has been defined as a role, process, and capacity. Indeed, others consider it as socially constructed. In addition to the definitions, the relatively sparse literature has identified antecedents, outcomes, and moderators of followership. 9781138679863�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,[r%m'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[ 9780367717872 0367717875 �� z_�SN���� ,{2Hr!Curriculum Development And Design Murray Print+This book has been written to provide a current, practical, australian-based approach to designing and developing curriculum.

Out west uncovers the intricate social and cultural networks that make western sydney a dynamic and stimulating place to live.Out west looks at how the land of the darug people of the cumberland plain was first settled by whites in colonial times. It then traces the development of the 'westie' stigma from the time of inner-city slum clearances to post-war immigration and the more recent waves of moral panic about the youth of the region. It focuses in particular upon the way in which the media have contributed to the maintenance of the 'westie' image. 2021-02-11 9781433833717 1433833719�c��'`�ʑ'`�['`xvz�v���p��(u�e�l:Essentials Of Descriptiveinterpretive Qualitative ResearchA Generic ApproachElliott, Jr., Robert K�This practical, stepbystep guide explains the most important principles for using a generic approach to descriptiveinterpretive qualitative research. 9781433834547 1433834545l�e�_���pEssentials Of AutoethnographyPoulos, Christopher N�In this stepbystep guide to writing autoethnography, the author describes and illustrates the essential features and practices of this qualitative research method. 9781433832642 143383264X 7u �sY��N{|'`+R�]_�vo�S Male, Female&The Evolution Of Human Sex DifferencesGeary, David C645�Now in a third edition, the authoritative classic text male, female evaluates both foundational and recent scholarship on the evolution of human sex differences, including how males and females differ in modern contexts.397 9782343196701 23431967026social sciences / school management/ special education�l�VL�Nc�[�vދu�1900-1940t^ ��c�[~��L�N�vw��nLa Naissance De L'orientation Professionnelle En France (1900-1940) : Aux Origines De La Profession De Conseiller D'orientation#Histoire Et M�moire De La Formation 9783030588571 3030588572/management of computing and information systems<o��N�] z�T�gP� z-N�vOewcǏ z  x��O�Xp 2020x��O ��T,g�T9h �9N�� �2020t^6g8�e�12�e ��O���| ����eKAgile Processes In Software Engine< ering And Extreme Programming  WorkshopsPXp 2020 Workshops, Copenhagen, Denmark, June 8 12, 2020, Revised Selected Papers396#Maria Paasivaara; Philippe Kruchten�This open access book constitutes the 6 research workshops, the agile education and training track, the doctoral symposium, as well as a panel presented at xp 2020, the 21st international conference on agile software development, which was held during june 8-12, 2020.

Specifically, the book examines the impact of climate change on health in terms of mortality, hospital admissions and help-seeking, as well as key response strategies of adaptation and mitigation. Many existing books tend to consider the relationship of climate change and public health as two connected issues divided into various discrete topics. Conversely, this book explicitly applies public health concepts to study the human impact of climate change, for example, by conceptualising climate change impact and its alleviation, mitigation and adaptation in a public health framework. 9783030187095 3030187098philosophy of mathematics�Tf[�Tpef[-N�vޏ�~0�yce�T�ewz\PThe Continuous, The Discrete And The Infinitesimal In Philosophy And Mathematics3The Western Ontario Series In Philosophy Of Science82 John L.

E. E. Pettit And Chao-jan Chang%Chinese University Of Hong Kong Press 2020-01-01HKDeFrom early times, daoist writers claimed to receive scriptures via revelation from heavenly beings. In numerous cases, these writings were composed over the course of many nights and by different mediums. New revelations were often hastily appended, and the resulting unevenness gave rise to the impression that daoist texts often appear slapdash and contain contradictions. A library of clouds focuses on the rewriting of daoist scriptures in the upper clarity (shangqing) lineage in fourth- and fifth-century china. Scholarship on upper clarity daoism has been dominated by attempts to uncover  original or  authentic texts, which has resulted in the neglect of later scriptures including the work fully translated and annotated here, the scripture of the immaculate numen, one of the three wonders (sanqi) and among the most prized daoist texts in medieval china. 9789882371194 9882371191 -N�V�eS-N�vsQ.�͋Keywords In Chinese Culture468EWhat elevates a mere word to the status of keyword? what does it mean to translate a keyword and map its meaning against other languages?like every major culture, chinese has its set of  keywords : pivotal t< erms of political, ethical, literary and philosophical discourse.

It has been called the hong kong novel, and was first published in 1962 as a serial in a hong kong evening paper. As the unnamed narrator, a writer at odds with a philistine world, sinks to his drunken nadir, his plight can be seen to represent that of a whole intelligentsia, a whole culture, degraded by the brutal forces of history: the second sino-japanese war and the rampant capitalism of post-war hong kong.The often surrealistic description of the narrator s inexorable descent through the seedy bars and night-clubs of hong kong, of his numerous encounters with dance-girls and his ever more desperate bouts of drinking, is counterpointed by a series of wide-ranging literary essays, analysing the chinese classical tradition, the popular culture of china and the west, and the modernist movement in western and chinese literature. 9789882371910 9882371914  0w��S 0��h�y��׋ � Lotus Leaves!Selected Poems Of Leung Ping Kwan5Leung Ping Kwan�0translated And Edited By John MinfordLeung ping kwan is one of hong kong s most acclaimed poets.

The statue collections over the course of 16th to 20th centuries in central hunan of southern china will give us insight into the local artistic tradition of statue-making, and the dynamics of multifarious religious practices consisting of a hybrid of buddhism, daoism, confucian, shamanism, and so forth. The documents contained inside these effigies, as well as the inscriptions found on the statues themselves, provide first-hand information that has not been filtered down through theological or philosophical discourses. 9781788211963 1788211960�V�[��L���V g��L��v?e�l�~Nmf[Banking On The StateAThe Political Economy Of Publicly-owned Banks ( Finance Matters )Finance MattersCassell, Mark KAgenda Publishing 2020-10-296Germany s sparkassen are publicly-held savings banks.

Therefore, the concept of "multimodality" has become an increasingly important topic in subject areas of linguistics, discourse analysis and translation studies. However, up to now, not much research has been done systematically on multimodal factors in translation and interpreting, even less in exploring research models or methodologies for multimodal analysis in translation and interpreting. This book aims to introduce and apply different theories of the multimodal discourse analysis to the study of translations, with case studies on chinese classics such as the monkey king, mulan and the art of war, as well as on interpretations of up-to-date issues including the chinese bell and road initiative and macao tourism. 9780367646226 0367646226�c�R�m9��(W>y�N�ZSO-N�v�SN�^�q_�T5uP[�S�x+Driving Consumer Engagement In Social Media$Influencing Electronic Word Of MouthRoutledge Studies In Marketing Anna BianchiXSummarizing the extant research on marketing communications, social media and word of mouth, this book clarifies terms often incorrectly and interchangeably used by scholars and marketers and provides principles of effective marketing communications in social media for different brand types and in different geographic markets.Conversations among consumers on social media now have an unprecedented ability to shape attitudes toward people, products, services, brands and to influence buying decisions.

Climate crisis, nuclear age and now pandemics these have become our 'new normal' and we must prepare ourselves for what comes after. In this post-apocalyptic rollercoaster ride through the world after the apocalypse, philosopher sre?ko horvat invites us to explore the apocalypse understood as 'revelation' (not the 'end' itself) and argues that the only way to prevent the end - namely, extinction - is to engage in a close reading of various interconnected threats like climate crisis, nuclear age and the ongoing pandemic. Drawing on the work of the neglected philosopher gunther anders, this book outlines a philosophical approach to deal with what horvat, borrowing a term from climate science and giving it a theological twist, calls 'eschatological tipping points'. It is no longer just the nuclear age or climate crisis, it is the collision of the nuclear age and climate crisis conjoined with various other major threats (pandemics, but also the viruses of capitalism and fascism). 9781509540075 9781119770480 1119770483 N�SRˆ�*N�N0�~�~�Tu;m�v8lEN'`͑QX�_`YUndisruptable: A Mindset Of Permanent Reinvention For Individuals, Organisations And LifeAidan Mccullen 2021-03-18JThe dictionary definition of disruption is "disturbance or problems that interrupt an event, activity or process".

Today's world is characterized by the acronym vuca, volatility, uncertainty, complexity and adversity, the covid-19 pandemic is just another arrow in the vuca quiver. In this rapidly changing world, a volley of questions come to mind. What does the future hold? what does this change mean for employment in face of exponential growth of technology? what does it mean for future generations in a changing job market? what does it mean for business leaders navigating waves of disruption? what does it mean for all of us as citizens in a society evolving at breakneck speed? undisruptable is a book that brings order to the chaos we are experiencing.

Focusing on slovenian literature, almost unknown to world literature studies, this book addresses world literature s canonical function in the nineteenth-century process of establishing european letters as national literatures. Aware of their dependence on imperial powers, (semi)peripheral national movements sought international recognition through, among other things, the newly invented figure of the national poet. Writers central to dependent national communities were canonized to represent their respective cultures to the norm-giving other  the emerging world literary canon and its aesthetic ideology. 9780367728632 036772863Xdevelopment geography�Q\hQtWS�e�v�W^�f�R�ȏT�[hQNS�[�v�W^+Reducing Urban Violence In The Global South!Towards Safe And Inclusive Cities�Reducing urban violence in the global south seeks to identify the drivers of urban violence in the cities of the global south and how they relate to and interact with poverty and inequalities. Drawing on the findings of an ambitious 5-year, 15-projec< t research programme supported by canada s international development research centre and the uk s department for international development, the book explores what works, and what doesn't, to prevent and reduce violence in urban centres.Cities in developing countries are often seen as key drivers of economic growth, but they are often also the sites of extreme violence, poverty, and inequality. The research in this book was developed and conducted by researchers from the global south, who work and live in the countries studied; it;challenges many of the assumptions from the global north;about how poverty, violence, and inequalities interact in urban spaces. In so doing, the book demonstrates that accepted understandings of the causes of and solutions to urban violence developed in the global north should not be imported into the global south without careful consideration of local dynamics and contexts. 9780367718176 0367718170 ��_g�v�1u IIFreedom Bound IiMarilyn Lake And Katie Holmes5Over generations, australian women have envisaged a world of freedom. This new collection of documents - letters, songs, poetry, diary extracts - charts the visions that inspired women and the obstacles that confronted them.Exploring twentieth-century australia, freedom bound ii shows how intertwined were women's public and personal lives, and how bound by custom, ties, affections and duties. The different meanings of freedom have been shaped by the nature of women's oppression, their quests given focus by their different points of departure. Aboriginal women sought self-determination and the right to keep their children; migrant women sought to affirm culture and family ties, and escape discrimination and poverty. Overburdened mothers wanted relief from continual childbearing and a measure of self-fulfilment. 9781509534753 150953475X���y Segregation Eric FongKSegregation is one of the starkest social realities of contemporary societies. Though often associated with explicitly racist laws of the past, it is a phenomenon that persists to this day and is a crucial element for understanding group relations and the wellbeing of different populations in society. In this book, eric fong and kumiko shibuya provide a thorough discussion of the evolving complexity of segregation in all its variety and variations. The authors focus not only on past trends and the development of segregation measures, but also the current state of affairs, and demonstrate the connections between the segregation of racial/ethnic groups, immigrant communities, and schools, along with poverty concentration. By taking a wide, cross-cutting view, the authors identify commonalities and differences in the causes, mechanisms, and consequences of segregation. Spatial and social segregation together perpetuate and reinforce the unequal distribution of resources among racial and ethnic groups, which in turn can have positive and negative consequences for individuals and groups. 9781509534746 9780367734091 0367734095�u��Tf[� N a�_0�`�~NOP�]Philosophy Of Pain%Unpleasantness, Emotion, And Deviance�Over recent decades, pain has received increasing attention as philosophers, psychologists, and neuroscientists try to answer deep and difficult questions about it.

Social procurement represents one approach to maximising public spending and social value through the purchase of goods and services. It has gained increasing attention in recent years as a way that governments and corporations can amplify the benefits of their purchasing power, and as a mechanism by which markets for social enterprise and other third sector organisations can be grown.Despite growing policy and practitioner interest in social procurement, there has been relatively little conceptual or empirical thinking published on the issue.

Yet much of the emphasis in schooling has been on reading, and after the early years, writing skills have been given less attention. Internationally, too many children are leaving school without the writing skills they need to succeed in life. The evidence indicates that students rarely develop proficiency as writers without effective teacher instruction. Teaching writing offers a comprehensive approach for the middle years of schooling, when the groundwork should be laid for the demanding writing tasks of senior school and the workplace. Teaching writing outlines evidence-based principles of writing instruction for upper primary students and young adolescents. It presents strategies that are ready for adoption or adaptation, and exemplars to assist with designing and implementing writing lessons across the middle years of school. It addresses writing from a multimodal perspective while also highlighting the importance of teaching linguistic aspects of text design such as sentence structure, vocabulary and spelling as foundations for meaning-making.climate change 9780367739980 0367739984buddhism[OYeASW[��S���e[OYe�_HQq�N�N2mQ�~ 1860-1960A Buddhist Crossroads6Pioneer Western Buddhists And Asian Networks 1860-1960dIn the late 19th and early 20th centuries, buddhism in asia was transformed by the impact of colonial modernity and new technologies and began to spread in earnest to the west. Transnational networking among asian buddhists and early western converts engendered pioneering attempts to develop new kinds of buddhism for a globalized world, in ways not controlled by any single sect or region. Drawing on new research by scholars worldwide, this book brings together some of the most extraordinary episodes and personalities of a period of almost a century from 1860-1960. Examples include indian intellectuals who saw buddhism as a homegrown path for a modern post-colonial future, poor whites  going native as asian monks, a brooklyn-born monk who sought to convert mussolini, and the failed 1950s attempt to train british monks to establish a thai sangha in britain. 9781138789586 9780367719715 0367719711�o'Y)R�N?eV{Kb�Q��QV{Ǐ z�v�[(ucWS ,{6HrThe Australian Policy Handbook.A Practical Guide To The Policy Making Process0Catherine Althaus, Peter Bridgman And Glyn Davis�Public policy permeates every aspect of our lives.

Public policy gives us roads, railways and airports, emergency services, industry development, and natural resource management. While politicians make the decisions, public servants provide analysis and support for those choices.Drawing on their extensive practical experience, the authors outline the processes used in making public policy. They systematically explain the relationships between political decision-makers, public service advisers, other community participants, and those charged with implementing the programs that result.The sixth edition of this widely used introduction is fully updated, and includes new material on the professionalisation of politicians, the role of opposition members, loss of corporate memory in the public service, addressing systemic policy failure, nudge economics and the impact of social media and the sharing economy on policy making and government.'an invaluable guide for practitioners, academics and students to the craft of policy analysis, development and evaluation. 9780367718794 0367718790journalism & professional media�e�� 2.0��e���S�N(W�NT�Q NuX[T�News 2.0$Can Journalism Survive The Internet?

It analyses the material and rhetorical forms through which drama was thought to "imprint" early modern audiences and readers with ideas, morals and memories, and looking to our own cultural moment shows how shakespeare has been historically constructed as an "impressive" dramatist. Through material readings of four plays coriolanus, a midsummer night s dream, measure for measure and the winter s tale harry newman argues that shakespeare deploys the imprint as a self-reflexive trope in order to advertise the value of his plays to audiences and readers, and that in turn the language of impression has shaped, and continues to shape, shakespeare s critical afterlife. 9781472465320&Ofe'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN�� 9780367643560 0367643561world/international historyRoutledge �o'Y)R�N�ef[cWS0The Routledge Companion To Australian LiteratureRoutledge Literature Companions�In recent years, australian literature has experienced a revival of interest both domestically and internationally.

At the center of any schooling practice are the educators, their schools, and the teacher education programs that license them. As the schools and faculties of education strive to provide the best practices to pre-service or in-service teachers, it becomes more critical to increase the quality of teacher education via various means to keep up with the demands of schooling in the 21st century.Interdisciplinary approaches toward enhancing teacher education provides an overview of how innovation and research experience can enhance teacher education programs with a focus on competencies, skills, and strategies future teachers will need to cope with while teaching students learning with diversity and facing linguistic, social, and environmental challenges.

Yet in the helping professions, whose shared objective is to promote human well being, questions of spirituality have often been avoided. Now we are increasingly realising that scientific materialism and individuality have failed to meet enduring human needs for meaning and connection. Evidence mounts for the importance of spirituality for prevention and intervention in times of crisis, distress and illness. Many professionals find themselves ill-prepared to respond to the spiritual needs of their clients, and to negotiate encounters with people from unfamiliar faith traditions.Spirited practices shows how it is possible for professionals to think critically, and be open to spirituality at the same time. Professionals and teachers from diverse faiths and fields of work, including social work, health, psychology and ministry explain how they have integrated spirituality into their work. Spirited practices is inspiring reading for anyone in the helping professions seeking to develop a spiritually aware practice. 9783030613532 3030613534middle eastern culture�]�bNNb�f������ꏷ?�\S\g�R�(��b�Y(gCN O-N�v�W�S�s�N'`LBarra And Zaman: Reading Egyptian Modernity In Shadi Abdel Salam s The Mummy;Reading Egyptian Modernity In Shadi Abdel Salam s The MummyPalgrave Studies In Arab Cinema Youssef Rakha�Brilliantly introduced by nezar andary, this book is a work of creative nonfiction that approaches writing on film in a fresh and provocative way.It draws on academic, literary, and personal material to start a dialogue with th< e egyptian filmmaker shadi abdel salam sthe mummy(1969), tracing the many meanings of egypt s postcolonial modernity and touching on arab, muslim, and ancient egyptian identities through watching the film.

The epeirote rulers from the komnenos-doukas family claimed to be legitimate successors to the byzantine imperial throne and, with the support of the high clergy and the aristocracy within their domain, carefully maintained their byzantine identity under the conditions of exile. This book explores a corpus of epeirote architecture, frescoes, sculpture, and inscriptions from the early thirteenth to the early fourteenth century within a comparative and interdisciplinary framework, focusing on the nexus of art, patronage, and political ideology. Through an examination of a vast array of visual and textual sources, many of them understudied or hitherto unpublished, the book uncovers how the epeirote elite mobilised art and material culture to address the issues of succession and legitimacy, construct memory, reclaim constantinople, and mediate encounters and exchanges with the latin west. 9780367729301 036772930Xcommunity social work�NtZ?Qg0Rbt^g�v>y:S�SN�SU\AThe Development Of Community Engagement From Infancy To AdulthoodSusan Henney And Justin Hackett118eThe development of community engagement from infancy to adulthood uses a developmental perspective to trace how individuals develop the cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and moral capacity to be actively engaged in their communities.

Adopted unanimously by the member states of the united nations (un);in 2015, the goals are remarkable for the global commitment on a set of targets to reach by 2030, but also for the lack of a strategy of implementation. The choice of appropriate action is handed over to individual governments, some of which are limited by their lack of resources. This book explores how implementation of the sustainable development goals (sdgs) can be developed, especially in developing countries. The content, strengths and weaknesses of the sdgs are critically examined, alongside their relationship to ongoing academic research. The authors also investigate the actions of governments over the past three years by looking at the national strategies they have presented at annual meetings of the un high-level political forum. 9780367142100analysis / mathematics?Advances In Computational Intelligence And Robotics (2327-0411) SE-TP-0039 9780367737702 0367737701�`�~�R�R�v4��fb�!The Dark Side Of Emotional LabourJenna Ward And Robert Mcmurray�The dark side of emotional labour explores the work that the rest of society would rather not think about, the often unseen work that is emotionally disturbing, exhausting, upsetting, and stigmatising. This is work that is simultaneously undesirable and rewarding, work whose tasks are eschewed and yet necessary for the effective function of individual organisations and < society at large.Diverse and challenging, this book examines how workers such as the doorman, the hr manager, the waiter and the doctor s receptionist experience verbal aggression and intimidation; how the prison officer and home carer respond to the emotions associated with physical violence, and; how the samaritan, banker and veterinarian deal in death and despair. It also considers how different individuals develop the emotional capital necessary to cope with the dark side of emotional labour, and how individuals can make sense of, and come to take satisfaction and pride in, such difficult work. 9783030610586 30306105867u01Y%�0eQ�r���V�v7uP[l�iN �el�� �v�yMale, Failed, Jailed9Masculinities And  revolving Door Imprisonment In The Uk(Palgrave Studies In Prisons And Penology David MaguireMThe profile of prisoners across many western countries is strikingly similar  95% male, predominantly undereducated and underemployed, from the most deprived neighbourhoods.

Many educational initiatives focus solely on the programming aspects, such as variables, loops, conditionals, parallelism, operators, and data handling, divorcing computing from real-world contexts and applications. This decontextualization threatens to make learners believe that they do not need to learn computing, as they cannot envision a future in which they will need to use it, just as many see math and physics education as unnecessary. The handbook of research on tools for teaching computational thinking in p-12 education is a cutting-edge research publication that examines the implementation of computational thinking into school curriculum in order to develop creative problem-solving skills and to build a computational identity which will allow for future stem growth.

It showcases current theoretical and empirical research on emotions in educational settings conducted in the asian context. The book consists of three parts, namely, emotions in learning, emotions in teaching, and emotions in leadership. These chapters cover different levels from students (e.G., school, university), to teachers (e.G., pre-service, in-service), and to school leaders (e.G., middle-level teachers, principals). Samples are recruited from a wide range of asian contexts (e.G., hong kong sar, macau sar, mainland china, singapore, and the philippines). Collectively, the authors use a variety of methods ranging from quantitative to qualitative approaches and demonstrate innovative theoretical work that pushes the boundaries of emotions research forward.

Currently, major blockages exist, and stereotypes abound.

In addition, parents who can also see this crisis as a chance for their own further development will be ultimately enriched by this painful process. They can face up to their own aging as they take leave of youth with its myriad possibilities, accepting and working through a newfound rivalry with their sexually mature children, thus experiencing a process of maturity, a process which in turn can set an example for their children. 9780367368500 For Dummies 9780367649999 0367649993.entrepreneurship and small business management�mRsQ�_�^�zYeO��n�6�#zus^�v12*NsQ.�#Caring Deeply About Church Planting"Twelve Keys From The Life Of JesusRich Kao�Elite leaders are not just for the arenas of business, politics or the military.

New priorities, pedagogies, technologies, spaces, and assessment strategies are required to enable learners to take ownership of their learning.  student-centeredness concepts are still prescriptive in nature as most decisions on curriculum, assessment, teaching, and learning approaches are still teacher-centric. Teachers are developing student-centered learning environments without the involvement of the learners in the planning, decision making, and/or design process. In addition, some lecturers are still practicing the traditional approaches of content delivery and conventional assessment methods rather than experimenting with innovative practices suited for student-centered approaches. Therefore, there is an ongoing need for research focused on the importance and effectiveness of a paradigm shift in education that involves student-teacher partnerships, fueled by innovative teaching and learning designs, where students take an active role and contribute as partners in learning. 9780367729288 03677292884architectural conservation and building conservation �S�O�b�v܏of��wƋN�eS�SThe Protected Vista$An Intellectual And Cultural History Tom BrigdenNThe protected vista draws a historical lineage from the eighteenth-century picturesque to present-day planning policy, highlighting how the values embedded within familiar views have developed over time through appropriation by diverse groups for cultural and political purposes. The book examines the intellectual construction of the protected vista, questioning the values entrenched within the view, by whom, and how they are observed and disseminated, to reveal how these views have been, and continue to be, part of a changing historical and political narrative. With a deeper knowledge and understanding of the shifting values in urban views, we will be better equipped to make decisions surrounding their protection in our urban centres. The book identifies the origins of current view protection policy in the aesthetic convention of the picturesque, drawing on a range of illustrated examples in the uk, the us, australia, canada and south africa, to serve as a useful reference;for students, researchers and academics in architecture, architectural conservation, landscape and urban planning. 9789004218468 9004218467 g}Y�vNLu���^<\(��v�Tf[PN‰;NIN�SvQyb$R�1710-1755 �[The Best Of All Possible Worlds?

Professionals working in areas such as development studies, economics and political studies, were the first to most actively analyse and publish on the topic of corruption and its negative impacts on economies, societies and politics. There was, at that time, minimal literature available on corruption and the law. The literature and discussion on bribery and corruption, as well as on the negative impact of each and what is required to address them, particularly in the legal context, are now considerable. Corruption and anti-corruption are multifaceted and multi-disciplinary. The focus now on the law and compliance, and perhaps commercial incentives, is relatively easy. However, corruption, anti-corruption and the motivations for them are complex. If we continue to discuss, debate, engage, address corruption and anti-corruption in our own disciplinary silos, we are unlikely to significantly progress the fight against corruption. 9781799836742 1799836746�~He9eۏR�eHh�O+Cases On Performance Improvement InnovationDarlene M.

Fichte And The Atheism Dispute (1798 1800) Curtis Bowman�The atheism dispute is one of the most important philosophical controversies of late eighteenth and early nineteenth century germany. Johann gottlieb fichte, one of the leading philosophers of the period, was accused of atheism after publishing his essay 'on the ground of our belief in a divine world-governance', which he had written in response to karl friedrich forberg's essay 'development of the concept of religion'. Fichte argued that recognition of the moral law includes affirmation of a 'moral world order', which he identified with god. Critics charged both forberg and fichte with atheism, thereby prompting fichte to launch a public campaign of defense that included his threat to resign his position at the university of jena if he were subjected to any government reprimand. Fichte was forced to make good this threat when his work was censured. The dispute eventually died down but it influenced many other thinkers for years to come. J. G. Fichte: the atheism dispute (1798-1800) is the first english commentary devoted solely to the atheism dispute as well as the first english translation of collected writings from the atheism dispute. 9780367719517 0367719517(W'Yf[f[`N�l�_��`����wS��vNR ,{2HrStudying Law At UniversityEverything You Need To Know!Simon Chesterman And Clare Rhoden�Do you want to do well in law from day one?law is a challenging and competitive subject to study at university.

Developing a novel committee governance concept and using examples drawn from sanctions imposed on iraq, al-qaida, congo, sudan and iran, this book shows that council members tend to follow the will of the powerful, whereas sanctions committee members often decide according to the rules. This is surprising since both council and committees are staffed by the same member states.Offering a fascinating account of security council micro-politics and decision-making processes on sanctions, this rigorous comparative and theory-driven analysis treats the council and its sanctions committees as distinguishable entities that may differ in decision practice despite having the same members. Drawing extensively on primary documents, diplomatic cables, well-informed press coverage, reports by close observers and extensive interviews with committee members, council diplomats and sanctions experts, it contrasts with the conventional wisdom on decision-making within these bodies, which suggests that the powerful permanent members would not accept rule-based decisions against their interests. 9781799852797 1799852792 peW[�TLr�T�Q�[%���vR�e5Innovations In Digital Branding And Content MarketingSAdvances In Marketing, Customer Relationship Management, And E-services (2327-5502) Subhankar Das�In today s technology-driven economy, organizations are attempting to create a digital identity of their brand in order to remain prevalent among consumers.

But it is sometimes said that testimony, unlike other sources, transmits knowledge from one person to another. In this book, stephen wright investigates what the transmission of knowledge involves and the role that it should play in our theorising about testimony as a source of knowledge. He argues that the transmission of knowledge should be understood in terms of the more fundamental concept of the transmission of epistemic grounds, and that the claim that testimony transmits knowledge is not only defensible in its own right, but indispensable to an adequate theory of testimony. This makes testimony unlike other epistemic sources. 9781138085275 9781138323209 1138323209)R(upeW[-N�e�lQ�S�YUO�Ǐ����`�~0Oewc�T�|�v�vRN�e_�S܀Harnessing Digital Disruption?How Companies Win With Design Thinking, Agile, And Lean StartupPascal Dennis And Laurent Simon�Our world has changed, probably for good.

Internationalizing Media Studies�Bringing together distinguished scholars from brics nations and those with a deep interest in and knowledge of these emerging powers, this collection makes a significant intervention in the ongoing debates about comparative communication research and thus contribute to the further internationalization of media and communication studies.The unprecedented expansion of online media in the world s major non-western nations, exemplified by brics (brazil, russia, india, china and south africa) is transforming global communication. Despite their differences and divergences on key policy issues, what unites these five nations, representing more than 20 per cent of the global gdp, is the scale and scope of change in their communication environment, triggered by a multilingual, mobile internet. The resulting networked and digitized communication ecology has reoriented international media and communication flows. Evaluating the implications of globalization of brics media on the reshaping of international communication, the book frames this within the contexts of theory-building on media and communication systems, soft power discourses and communication practices, including in cyberspace.

This process is called mindreading. Mindreading, shannon spaulding argues in this book, is central to our ability to understand and interact with others. Philosophers and cognitive scientists have converged on the idea that mindreading involves theorizing about and simulating others mental states. She argues that this view of mindreading is limiting and outdated. Most contemporary views of mindreading vastly underrepresent the diversity and complexity of mindreading. She articulates a new theory of mindreading that takes into account cutting edge philosophical and empirical research on in-group/out-group dynamics, social biases, and how our goals and the situational context influence how we interpret others behavior. 9781138221581#���R�T'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[ 9780367629564 0367629569�[Ye��-N�e�1u;NIN���vyb$R�S`�qSi��v͋�N�S���v݋�BCritical Reflections On The Language Of Neoliberalism In Education-Dangerous Words And Discourses Of Possibility:Routledge Studies In Education, Neoliberalism, And Marxism@Recognizing the dominance of neoliberal forces in education, this volume offers a range of critical essays which analyze the language used to underpin these dynamics.Combining essays from over 20 internationally renowned contributors, this text offers a critical examination of key terms which have become increasingly central to educational discourse.

The choice of appropriate tools is especially complex due to the intrinsic connection between technical specifications, educational/therapeutic methods, and the wide variety of asds and related conditions. In this respect, tools chosen to support children may need to target those diagnosed not only with asd but also with such co-morbidity conditions as attention deficit disorder. commercial law for professionals 9781509519248 1509519246 \gZS O�e�sQ.��N�~ Du Bois: A Critical IntroductionReiland Rabaka"W.E.B du bois is widely considered one of the most accomplished and controversial african american intellectuals in u.S.

Huertas-abrilfThrough different approaches like toys and play, children explore and know the rules and symbols of their communities and recreate roles and situations that reflect their sociocultural and 21st century plurilingual world. As a result, they learn how to subordinate desires to social rules, cooperate with others willingly, and engage in socially appropriate behavior. When they are evaluated together psychologically, there is a current need for action to increase the amount and quality of play provided to children.

First, it is possible for the empirical sciences to contribute to the moral realism/anti-realism debate. A< nd second, most appeals to science that have so far been proposed are insufficiently empirically substantiated.The book s main chapters address four prominent science-based arguments for or against the existence of objective moral truths: the presumptive argument, the argument from moral disagreement, the sentimentalist argument, and the evolutionary debunking argument.�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[ 9781799857259 1799857255�[Ɖ�VE�W0WO(u�v?eV{0�SS�T�Q�zAExamining International Land Use Policies, Changes, And ConflictsG.

Recent knowledge from patients and empirical research shows the importance of belonging to groups both to psychological and physical well-being. The problems of many students, minority group members, immigrants, terrorists, and many lonely people are linked to an insufficient sense of belonging. Whereas psychoanalytic theory has focused on the need for a secure attachment to a primary caretaker, it has failed to note the importance of a sense of belonging to the family group, a friendship group, a community, a religious group, a nation-state, etc. This book demonstrates the difficulties faced by those who immigrate, those who never feel a sense of their true selves as belonging in a family, a cohesive professional group, and the difficulties of psychoanalysts themselves in knowing where they belong in patients lives. The problems of breaking up marital and professional relationships as well as our relationship with the earth are also discussed. 9780367671969 9781119755494 1119755492>P,Tzfga�Ye�[f[ub:N�f}Y�v>P,T�2Listen Wise: Teach Students To Be Better ListenersMonica Brady-myerov Jossey-bass�Listen wise is written from the perspective of a veteran npr reporter who has been in love with audio storytelling her whole life and created a company to support teachers and students in improving listening skills.

Against a background of economic crisis and national austerity, both countries experienced  protest elections in which the overriding concern for an unusually large proportion of voters was not to choose a government but to express dissent. The outcome included record-breaking electoral volatility, the decline of bipolarism, the startling rise of challenger parties and the transformation of national patterns of government formation, including experiments with grand coalitions and technocrat-led cabinets.

The different meanings of freedom have been shaped by the nature of women's oppression, their quests given focus by their different points of departure. Convict women protested - often violently - at the indignities they endured; aboriginal women protested at the cruelty of the frontier and the paternalism of the mission; and white middle-class women demanded the freedom to participate in the public world. 0367512726 9780367731519 0367731517practice & practitioners�eYYW�e�yrPO�lm�e�v�N_bgR+The Ritual Theatre Of Theodoros TerzopoulosFreddy Decreus�The ritual theatre of theodoros terzopoulos outlines the story of the athenian-based attis theatre and the way its founder and director, theodoros terzopoulos, introduced bio-energetic presences of the body on the stage, in an attempt to redefine and reappraise what it means today not only to have a body, but to fully be a body.Terzopoulos created a very specific attitude towards life and death, and it is this broad perspective on energy and consciousness that makes his work so appealing both to a general public and to students of arts, theatre and drama.

In the last half century, the field of religious ethics has been inundated with various antirealist schools of moral thought. Though there is a wide spectrum of different positons within antirealism, a majority of antirealist religious ethicists tend to see moral belief as an historically dependent social construction. This has created an environment where doing religious ethics in any metaphysically substantial sense is often seen not only as out of fashion but also as philosophically implausible.However, there is a lack of clarity as to what antirealists exactly mean by "construction" and what arguments they would use to support their views. 9780367720124 0367720124��N�l؞�WW��YsY0?e�lNW0WWords And Silences#Aboriginal Women, Politics And Land�In struggles over access to land, aboriginal women's concerns have often remained unacknowledged.

The seductive illusion of hard work establishes that hard work is necessary but insufficient for success. In fact, misdirected hard work is way worse than no work at all. This book includes various real-life examples from the corporate world that has constantly exaggerated the role of hard work and underplayed the critical role of choices and mentorship in creating conditions for success. The young workforce is experiencing burnout and it is suspected that the romantic proclamations and obsession about hard work has lots to do with it. This book discusses all these issues and finally offers a solution-oriented approach to the myth about succeeding in work life. 9788412157062 8412157060ck�Yb@b�:ُN!k�vb�e 2,Vivo Como Hablo : Combates De Este Tiempo Ii Utop�a Libros 9788825531541 8825531540(geography & history / geography & travel �e8n�v(u��TPN���&{�S~.Usi E Piaceri Del Turismo : Percorsi Semiotici Riflessi ; 22 9781119582625 1119582628R{| ��cd� �f��[�WS^��T<\�e)R�N�v�W^u;mBClassify, Exclude, Police: Urban Lives In South Africa And NigeriaLaurent Fourchard 2021-03-25 9781119582649 1119582644 9782355832833 2355832838#geography & history / south america.�e'YF�GWa��pKN�e:R\O�N1799t^01800t^01801t^01802t^�T1804t^ �,{2wS:dVoyage Aux R�gions �quinoxiales Du Nouveau Continent : Fait En 1799, 1800, 1801, 1802 & 1804, Vol. 2 Tolle Lege�ditions De L'escalierAPractice, Progress, And Proficiency In Sustainability (2330-3271) SE-TU984-0036 9780367719425 0367719428 ;NCg;NSO�WW�;NCg�Ny�Sovereign SubjectsIndigenous Sovereignty MattersPIndigenous rights in australia are at a crossroads.

We struggle to stretch our teams and our resources to address a long list of priorities and ultimately end up with little differentiation for our brands. Our tools are to blame for our lack of focus: strategy frameworks in use today offer comprehensive categorizations of topics, but they lack a systematic approach to drive choice. Focused choices, limitless growth offers an integrated decision-based strategy framework that shows how constraining choice aligns teams, facilitates learning, and creates sustainable growth. The book addresses six fundamental questions that face organizations and explores how companies develop winning strategy by making systematic choices. Research and practice with some of the most successful companies in the world proves that the best commercial plans emerge by tightly constraining and connecting strategic choices. 9789353885243 9353885248�NW0W9ei�0RW0W@b gCg�pS�^W0W�{t�v�etQ��OLand Reforms To Land Titling.Emerging Paradigms Of Land Governance In India Pradeep Nayak�In india, land policies have been undergoing a paradigm shift since the economic reforms of the early 1990s. Conclusive land titling or guaranteed title to land has emerged as an alternative policy option to the redistributive land reform agenda before economic liberalization, and marks a historic reorientation of land policy. Land reforms to land titling: emerging paradigms of land governance in india studies this reorientation. Would the neoliberal policy of secure individual property rights in land address diverse land-related questions in india? whose interests will a conclusive titling policy serve, given unequal land holdings? how are capitalist or market imperatives of efficiency and growth bypassing social concerns? this book addresses these and other important questions through an in-depth study of not only india s land governance history but also the experiences of other developing countries. 9789353885212 9353885213 9789353885021 9353885027 (WpS�^�^��xvz�W'Yf['Building Research Universities In India Sage Studies In Higher Education Pankaj JalotetWith the emergence of global university rankings, there is increased interest in research universities.

As bizarre as it might seem, in france one can marry a dead person, and in africa a married woman can marry another married woman as a practical way of solving the social problem of old-age neglect. This book is a collection of unusual superstitions, rituals and customs that are practiced by ordinary people all around the world. It should be read to build awareness about these rituals and to know about the many shades of faith in this world we inhabit.

In this new book, martin smith, james sperling and mark webber explore four key post-cold war developments that threaten nato's survival: an overextended geostrategic reach and an unwieldly security policy portfolio; a failure to address capability short-falls and meet defense spending benchmarks; us weariness and european wariness that call nato into question; and intra-alliance discord over russia's place in the european security order and how to deal with moscow's destabilisation of georgia and ukraine. The authors propose in response a range of policy options that could reinvigorate nato, but conclude with a note of caution. Alliances come and go and most are cast into the dustbin of history. If nato is to avoid this fate it must not only address the major problems that trouble it, but also get to grips with future challenges to alliance cohesion and credibility, from brexit to the emerging contest with china. 9780745682624 9781119772286 1119772281 gHey{D���SXb�N�v\O(u�SvQ����3Effective Fundraising: The Trustees Role And BeyondF.

Some societies and governmental structures are clearly more successful than others: they act in divergent ways, fostering innovation and employment, and they utilize varied opportunities from different fields of research, from new products and from their educational systems. Thus, innovation varies fundamentally between countries, and public policies  in matters such as energy technology, environmental technologies, facing climate change, and advancing conditions of life  can be determined according to different societies needs. This volume brings together a range of world experts to compare countries and continents and help develop a fuller picture of innovations and their social basis. 9780367216788 0367216787 NLu�w�lD��nN�PY&World Petroleum Resources And Reserves Joseph RivaThis book describes and analyzes the geological basis for the current world petroleum situation.

One of the consequences of this is increasing social disparity reflected through inequality of employees income and employment conditions. This book, based on extensive original research including interviews and questionnaire surveys in different regions of china, explores the exact nature of these changes and their effects. It examines state-owned enterprises, foreign-owned enterprises and domestic private enterprises, discusses the extent to which employees are satisfied with their employment conditions and whether they think their employment conditions are fair, and outlines how managers and employees in china expect conditions to change in future.

Following the thought of plato and aristotle, the author places the achievement of wisdom and fulfilment at the centre of the good life, identifying these with the achievement of a complex admixture of virtues, which are dependent on an appreciation of goodness itself. The book then examines the manner in which permaculture - or the practice of sustainable farming or ethical gardening - can provide us with the best opportunity to acquire this  moral knowledge through the close relationships we can have with other living beings and things. A study of the nature of wisdom and a means of  living-with philosophy , living-with wi< sdom: permaculture and symbiotic ethics reveals that it is by appreciating and sharing in the lives of other organisms that we engage with many dilemmas of life and death and have the opportunity to exercise the virtues. 9781138319028 1138319023&YCQ'`+R�eS0>yOf[NYCQ�s�N'`��N^��klS�vƉ҉͑�e���hQt'`+R�v>yO�^�g;Multiple Gender Cultures, Sociology, And Plural ModernitiesVRe-reading Social Constructions Of Gender Across The Globe In A Decolonial Perspective(Routledge Research In Gender And Society�Until today, western, european sociology contributes to the social reality of colonial modernity and gender knowledge is a paradigmatic example of it.

In so doing, pundits ignore a number of intriguing questions: what is the relationship between financial development and financialisation and how has it played out in the malaysian context? and more generally: how can a country like malaysia become significantly more financially developed, yet fail to emancipate the financial system from political control; a core element of the financial development discourse? to unravel the complexities of this puzzle, this book subjects the history and contemporary practices of financial policymaking in malaysia to scrutiny.

Campbell1American society is rapidly secularizing-a radical departure from its historically high level of religiosity-and politics is a big part of the reason. Just as, forty years ago, the religious right arose as a new political movement, today secularism is gaining traction as a distinct and politically energized identity. This book examines the political causes and political consequences of this secular surge, drawing on a wealth of original data. The authors show that secular identity is in part a reaction to the religious right. However, while the political impact of secularism is profound, there m< ay not yet be a secular left to counterbalance the religious right.

It also includes an interview with pedro pimenta, one of the most distinguished african film festival organizers. Drawing on various theoretical perspectives, the volume strives to reverse the relative invisibility that has afflicted these cinemas, arguing that most, if not all, lusophone films are transnational in all aspects of production, acting, and reception. The initial three chapters sketch broad, comparative overviews and suggest theoretical approaches, while the ensuing chapters focus on specific case studies and discuss a number of key issues such as the convergence of film with politics, the question of gender and violence, as well as the revisiting of the period immediately following independence.

This volume therefore calls for a variety of sources not easily available elsewhere - including books, pamphlets, correspondence and newspaper articles - and a variety of often overlapping voices - from chartists to early co-operators, secularists, non-british owenites and proponents of women s rights. The sheer range of owenite ventures (intentional communities, co-operatives, labour exchanges and experiments in popular education) will be covered, thus blending social and political history. The attempt to map the owenite movement will eventually lead to the identification of its shared, core principles and values: internationalism, co-operation, concepts of political change, and above all, the ideal of community. 9781138321007 1138321001 Volume Ii444�This second volume considers various socialist impulses and developments after the collapse of the owenite movement in britain. Interventions by some leading christian socialists will illuminate one important tendency; publications by o brien another less vital strand. Central to this volume, however, will be far less well-known pamphlets, book extracts and articles in the periodical press by national and local co-operative writers and activists, who appropriated and transformed the legacy of utopian socialism in the second half of the nineteenth century. Old owenites are naturally included, though more emphasis is given to reworkings by a younger generation of co-operators, now mostly forgotten. The volume will also cover relationships and controversies between co-operators and late nineteenth century state socialists, who attempted to portray the co-operative movement as merely diversionary for the working class. 9781138321021 1138321028 Volume Iii,The;third volume includes a range of pamphlets, lectures and other documents which help illustrate the intellectual and political activities and environment which shaped the british mainstream left of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The early concerns and activities of the fabian society since its foundation in the 1880s are illustrated in the selection, as are the concerns, problems, events and opportunities leading to the formation and early development of the labour party in the years from the turn of the century to the outbreak of the first world war. Also included are writings of members of the independent labour party (ilp). Formed in the 1890s, the ilp not only became a key player in the formation and early development of the labour party but also served as a more radical alternative. 9781138321052 1138321052 Volume Iv527aFor historians of the international labour movement, the decades before 1914 were the golden age of marxist thought. In this flowering of socialist thinking, britain seemingly had no part, and the question has been asked instead:  why was there was no marxism in britain? the selections in this volume confirm that marxist ideas in britain were not< always pitched at the highest theoretical level. There are also examples of the reductionism to which leading exponents were sometimes prone. Nevertheless, there is also a richness and outspokenness across wide and varied themes that belies the caricature of arid economic determinism. Marxists believed they carried on the tradition of home-grown movements of struggle such as chartism. They also identified with the new spirit of internationism whose ideas and personalities filled the pages of their periodicals. 1108926371 9780190127688 0190127686gRƖ wS�NCollected Plays Volume 2�The socio-political history readers, theatre and literature scholars and enthusiasts, literature and performance students as well as the general readers, both nationally and internationally. 9780190330750 0190330759 2020t^lQ�S�l�vFUN�^(u+Commercial Applications Of Company Law 202022th.Hanrahan, Pamela; Ramsay, Ian; Stapledon, Geof980�Written by three leading corporate law experts, commercial applications of company law focuses on the ordinary events and issues faced by companies and their advisers, explaining and applying the law in a manner that is understandable and relevant.�Undergraduate students enrolled in either a company law or commercial law subject as part of a bachelor of commerce (accounting).

And yet, this traditional teaching appears to verge on incoherence. How can one person be both god, having all the perfections of divinity, and human, having all the limitations of humanity? this is the fundamental philosophical problem of the incarnation.

In lacan and critical feminism, carusi merges lacan s theories of discourse and sexuation, not only from a gender/sexuality angle, but also from a literary, feminist, and women s studies framework. By drawing examples from literature, film, art, and socio-political movements to focus on discourse and sexuation, the text examines how tropes impact the subject s positionality within any discourse mode.

Bates�Those studying development often address the impact of government policies, but rarely the politics that generate these policies. A culmination of several decades of work by robert bates, among the most respected comparativists in political science, this compact volume seeks to rectify that omission. Bates addresses the political origins of prosperity and security and uncovers the root causes of under-development. Without the state there can be no development, but those who are endowed with the power of the state often use its power to appropriate the wealth and property of those they rule. When do those with power use it to safeguard rather than to despoil? bates explores this question by analyzing motivations behind the behaviour of governments in the developing world, drawing on historical and anthropological insights, game theory, and his own field research in developing nations. 9781108930932 9780198851356 0198851359general academic [r%m�y�lt��xvz�,{NwS$Oxford Studies In Private Law TheoryMiller, Paul B; Oberdiek, John�This volume brings together essays by scholars from around the world covering issues in general private law theory as well as specific fields including the theoretical analysis of tort law, property law, and contract law.VAcademic lawyers, philosophers, political scientists, economists, and legal historians 110893093X 9781108481762 1108481760Wl��N��]wQ�v�O����bN�ef[-N�vf���$The Rhetoric Of Roman TransportationVehicles In Latin Literature Jared HudsondLatin literature is crowded with portraits of romans in transit, but despite this ubiquity scholars have been reluctant to read vehicles as significant conveyors of textual and cultural meaning. This book offers the first systematic analysis of the representation of roman vehicles in latin literary texts. By moving past approaches that count such vehicular portrayals as either transparent glimpses of reality or soaring poetic symbols, it demonstrates how these conveyances work as a system of representation to structure both the texts in which they appear and underlying cultural discourses surrounding power, gender, and empire. Arranged as a series of interlocking studies, each chapter explores the representation of a particular conveyance across author and text, from the humblest and most quotidian (plaustrum) to the most exalted and symbol-laden (currus). 9780367634681 0367634686O(u R N RStudio �c"}'`�V }R�g�vRekcWSFA Step-by-step Guide To Exploratory Factor Analysis With R And RstudioMarley W.

Some of these posed serious questions for assumptions about the nature of the mind, many of which still depended on notions of the soul and god. It is an era that witnessed the emergence of theories and arguments;that continue to animate the study of philosophy of mind, such as dualism, vitalism, materialism, and idealism.Covering pivotal figures in philosophy such as descartes, hobbes, kant, leibniz, cavendish, and spinoza, philosophy of mind in the early modern and modern ages provides an outstanding survey of philosophy of mind of the period. Following an introduction by rebecca copenhaver, sixteen specially commissioned chapters by an international team of contributors discuss key topics, thinkers, and debates, including:hobbes,descartes philosophy of mind and its early critics,consciousness,the later cartesians,malebranche,cavendish,locke,spinoza,descartes and leibniz,perception and sensation,desires,mental substance and mental activity,hume, andkant.Two Volume Set 9780367418724 036741872Xcity and urban planningRoutledge lQqQ�N�Kb�Q*The Routledge Handbook Of Public Transport!Routledge International HandbooksoThe routledge handbook of public transport is a reference work of chapters providing in-depth examination of the current issues and future developments facing public transport.

Taking the human development reports of the undp as its starting point for reflection, this book investigates the construction of this framework as well as its political function since the end of the cold war. The book argues that the undp s discourse on development relies on essentialist philosophical, cultural, and political assumptions dating back to the 19th century and concludes that these assumptions  also present in the mdgs and sdgs  impede a full grasp of the complex and multi-layered global problems of the current world. Whilst development critiques traditionally relied on liberal, marxist or foucauldian theoretical frameworks and focused on epistemological or political economy issues, this book draws on the post-foundational and post-structuralist work of ernesto laclau and jacques derrida and proposes an ontological and relational reading of development discourses that both complements and further develops the insights of previous critiques.SE-D73/77-0036 9780367457273 036745727XWS�N�v�QNl��W��NyOt���-N.Y`�`�[cWS Social TheoryA Guide To Central ThinkersPeter Beilharz�An alluvial goldfield of social theorists - nuggets lying around all over the place.'bob connellwho's who in the social theory zoo? this book introduces some of the leading social theorists in short, lively entries by leading australian scholars.

It throws light on conservative ideas, changing policies, party organisation and popular partisan support, showing how conservatism evolved and responded to domestic and global change. It explores how certain clusters of ideas and beliefs comprised a conservative view of political action and purposes, often reinforcing the importance of historic institutions such as the anglican church, the monarchy and the constitution. It also looks at the ways in which a broadening electorate required the marshalling of conservative supporters through greater party organisation, and how the conservative party became the embodiment and expression of durable popular political sentiment.

To do so, it analyzes the history of thought on creative work from three civilizations: greek, indian, and chinese, as well as contemporary neurological studies on consciousness. According to the classical greeks, humans are instinctively predisposed to use creative work to gain truth, wisdom and happiness; the indians consider that dharma (duty, morality, etc.) can be achieved only through work (karma); and for the chinese, creative work is needed to attain the supreme wisdom (dao). Modern studies on consciousness show that our brain creates a personal self-model (ego tunnel) when we learn things creatively, and developing such skills provides lifelong protection for the brain.In the 21st century, human involvement in creative work is declining as we use mechanized systems to gain more and more profit, but the wealth falls into the hands of the few superrich: the plutonomy. 9780367642457 036764245X it & the law�R�[b�N�peW[�e�N�v���yKNb�peW[�R�[�v?e�l�S Crypto WarsSThe Fight For Privacy In The Digital Age: A Political History Of Digital Encryption Craig JarvisyThe crypto wars have raged for half a century. In the 1970s digital privacy activists prophesied the emergence of an orwellian state, made possible by computer-mediated mass-surveillance. The antidote: digital encryption. The u.S. Government warned encrypti< on would not only prevent surveillance of law-abiding citizens, but of criminals, terrorists, and foreign spies, ushering in a rival dystopian future. Both parties fought to defend the citizenry from what they believed the most perilous threats. The government tried to control encryption to preserve its surveillance capabilities; privacy activists armed citizens with cryptographic tools and challenged encryption regulations in the courts. No clear victor has emerged from the crypto wars. Governments have repeatedly failed to forge a democratically acceptable framework to manage conflicting civil liberties in the digital age. 9780367642488 9780367254520 0367254522)��b�NN6�d�Qg#W�v N͑~��b\+Y�<\�e\�v�Q�N�S N͑S���eL��v�]_��bN� �>On Warfare And The Threefold Route Of The Jerusalem PilgrimageKRalph Niger s De Re Militari Et Triplici Via Peregrinationis IerosolimitaneCrusade Texts In Translation John D Cotts�This is the first english translation of ralph niger s de re militari et triplici via peregrinationis ierosolimitane, written shortly after the fall of jerusalem to saladin in 1187 and the subsequent calling of the third crusade. Long known to scholars as an early and highly idiosyncratic critique of crusading, the text provides a sustained reflection on penance, the meaning of jerusalem, and the challenges of military pilgrimage. Ralph studied theology and law at the schools of paris and cologne, served at the court of henry the young king of england, and corresponded with the great ecclesiastics of his day during political crises. After the fall of jerusalem, he resisted the calls to crusade and instead called on christians to look inward and build jerusalem in their hearts. Throughout the four books of the work, ralph looks to scripture for precedents for crusading and finds none.

Remarks on forest scenery (1791) is formed by gilpin s own observations of trees, forests, and his new forest home specifically; but it is also the product of tree-stories collected from  travellers and historians that came before him. As this study will show, this accumulating arboreal discourse then had a lasting impact upon nineteenth-century environmental writers such as john claudius loudon, jacob george strutt, william howitt, and mary roberts, and fed into varied dialogues surrounding natural history, agriculture, landscaping, deforestation, and public health.

Over this time there has been a shift towards a strategic conception which posited workers as  assets rather than  costs . These  human resources were reconceptualised as a key source of competitive advantage. As such, these assets were to be treated seriously: selected with care, trained and developed, and above all, induced to offer commitment. The concept of  human capital came to the fore, and in the decades following these developments, research output has been voluminous.Strategic human resource management: a research overview, authored by global research leaders, provides an expert summary of this crucial element of organizational performance. This new shortform book develops the argument that one of the crucial elements of organizational performance is the way work is organized in skill and talent packages both within an organization s boundary and across global competency clusters. 9781138591998���R�T'Yf[ 9780367733315 0367733315 �b/gN�^Q{�lb��vɋ��3Litigation In The Technology And Construction Court3Adam Constable Qc, Lucy Garrett Qc And Calum Lamont2The technology and construction court ("tcc") deals with legal cases that often require specialist technical expertise.

In some cases, their labors mark the conceptual boundaries of political life; in others, they serve as uncredited resources for the production of political ideas. 9780367897918 9780367362492 036736249Xeducation & developmentYe��6R�^9ei�-N�v�O�N0#��NaN���R��k��Ye��hQtU\g>Trust, Accountability, And Capacity In Education System Reform,Global Perspectives In Comparative Education.This global collection brings a new perspective to the field of comparative education by presenting trust, capacity, and accountability as the three building blocks of education systems and education system reform. In exploring how these three factors relate to student learning outcomes across different international contexts, this book provides a powerful framework for a more equal system. Drawing upon research and case studies from scholars, policymakers, and experts from international agencies across five continents, this book shows how trust, capacity and accountability interact in ways and with consequences that vary among countries, pointing readers towards understanding potential leverage points for system change. Trust, accountability, and capacity in education system reform illuminates how these three concepts are embedded in an institutional context temporally, socially, and institutionally, and offers an analysis that will be of use to researchers, policymakers, and agencies working in comparative education and towards education system reform. 9780367362478 2021-01-03 9780367719296 0367719290���0W&^i[P[�vYe���(W�S���e�N-NNO N TSchooling The Rustbelt Kids'Making The Difference In Changing Times Pat Thomson�A truly exceptional book.' - michael w.

Like schools everywhere they are being asked to do more with less, but they face more obstacles.In recent years education policy has shifted from a holistic approach to learning to a focus on narrow educational outcomes: spelling, reading and writing. Thomson shows that this approach penalises disadvantaged schools and argues that educational and social disadvantage are inextricably linked in children's everyday lives.Examining primary and secondary schools in disadvantaged areas in a post-industrial ('rustbelt') city, schooling the rustbelt kids reopens the debate about inequality in schooling. It provides concrete evidence that typical government policies in the western world are not working, and that they are helping to create a permanent underclass. 9789004430242 9004430245)'k�v�^�b�l-N�v �O�b ��VE��T'k2m�l�_sQ�Nċ0O�s g�O�b\O:N��l�TD�^\0WMOh�Q�v��Bl) protection In European Union Asylum LawInternational And European Law Requirements For Assessing Available Protection As A Criterion For Refugee And Subsidiary Status International Refugee Law SeriesJulian M.

Governments of both western and non-western countries tend to conduct detailed, multi-layered and continuous systems of tests or examinations. International tests, such as pisa and timss, have also been introduced to compare the relative performances of learners within diverse educational institutions across different countries. Examinations therefore provide a methodological pivot for comparing a range of societies. They enable us to contrast the west and the east; the north and the south; tribal and mass society; ancient and postmodern civilization; and so on.Comparing parallel societies from across asia, the middle east, europe, and north america, this book proposes fundamental transitions in sociological research from system to process and from communication to composition through intensive studies on examinations. 9781138609242 9780367730635 0367730634performance theory bgRh�oN�l;Sl�T,Theatrical Performance And The Forensic Turn James Frieze�Contemporary theatre, like so much of contemporary life, is obsessed with the ways in which information is detected, packaged and circulated. Running through forms as diverse as neo-naturalistic playwriting, intimately immersive theatre, verbatim drama, intermedial performance, and musical theatre, a common thread can be observed: theatre-makers have moved away from assertions of what is true and focussed on questions about how truth is framed. Commentators in various disciplines, including education, fine art, journalism, medicine, cultural studies, and law, have identified a  forensic turn in culture. The crucial role played by theatrical and performative techniques in fuelling this forensic turn has frequently been mentioned but never examined in detail. Political and poetic, theatrical performance and the forensic turn is the first account of the relationship between theatrical and forensic aesthetics. 9780367718879 0367718871social work practice�t^�N0���SN>yO�]\O��wƋ�[��$Older People, Ageing And Social WorkKnowledge For PracticeMark Hughes And Karen HeycoxpEssential reading for practitioners, educators and researchers within the general field of social work with older people.' - from the foreword by mark lymbery, associate professor of social work, university of nottinghamthe reality of our ageing population means all social workers need to be confident in working with older people.

Despite living on the margins of the digital revolution, these island communities have used media and communication to create awareness of and find solutions to environmental challenges. By telling their stories in their own way, ordinary people are able to communicate compelling accounts of how different, but interrelated, environmental, political, and economic issues converge and impact at a local level. This book fills a significant gap in our understanding of how participatory media is used as a dialogic tool to raise awareness and facilitate discussion of environmental issues that are now critical.

This is the first book to explicitly and authoritatively set out the psychological aspects of sport-related concussion from a multidisciplinary and global perspective the book attempts to offer a global understanding of the injury by presenting an historical overview; exploring the psychological implications of sport-related concussion and the influence of gender and sociocultural context on concussive injury and recovery; setting out practical guidance on working with special populations suffering from concussive injuries; and discussing the theoretical and methodological considerations for research on concussion and future directions for this research. 9780367732653 0367732653�b����N��_��Tf[0�_tf[N^yf[U\gSelf-transcendence And Virtue6Perspectives From Philosophy, Psychology, And Theology�Recent research in the humanities and social sciences suggests that individuals who understand themselves as belonging;to something greater tha< n the self a family, community, or religious or spiritual group often feel happier, have a deeper sense of purpose or meaning in their lives, and have overall better life outcomes than those who do not. Some positive and personality psychologists have labeled this location of the self within a broader perspective "self-transcendence." this book presents and integrates new, interdisciplinary research into virtue, happiness, and the meaning of life by re-orienting these discussions around the concept of self-transcendence.The essays are organized around three broad themes connected to self-transcendence. First, they investigate how self-transcendence helps us to understand aspects of the moral life as it is studied within psychology, including the development of wisdom, the practice of moral praise, and psychological well-being. 9780367716493 0367716496�N�l��e;NIN0R�Qb�va'Y)R�N�eDdq_9Italian Humanist Photography From Fascism To The Cold WarMartina Caruso�Spanning four decades of radical political and social change in italy, this interdisciplinary study explores photography s relationship with italian painting, film, literature, anthropological research and international photography. Evocative and powerful, italian social documentary photography from the 1930s to the 1960s is a rich source of cultural history, reflecting a time of dramatic change. This book shows, through a wide range of images (some published for the first time) that to fully understand the photography of this period we must take a more expansive view than scholars have applied to date, considering issues of propaganda, aesthetics, religion, national identity and international influences. By setting italian photography against a backdrop of social documentary and giving it a distinctive place in the global history of photography, this exciting volume of original research is of interest to art historians and scholars of italian and visual culture studies. 9781799812500 1799812502 ,gW�wƋYe���v&Otxvz�e�l=Ethical Research Approaches To Indigenous Knowledge EducationNtokozo MthembuPSouth africa s recent higher education protests around fees and decolonizing institutions have shone a spotlight on important issues and inspired global discussion.

So, far from being a pure historical review of china's industrial development, the book focuses on the internal logic of economic phenomena, especially the relationship among economic variables reflected in economic data, and carries out discussions within the framework of economic development theory. The author uses multivariate statistical analysis to draw comparisons between the industrial development of china and that of japan, focusing on outbound investment and the importance of this for economic growth. 9780367735524 0367735520pS�^�yl�bJT 2017�:_����yIndia Migration Report 2017Forced Migration�The india migration report 2017 examines forced migration caused by political conflicts, climate change, disasters (natural and man-made) and development projects. India accounts for large numbers of internally displaced people in the world. Apart from conflicts and disasters, over the years development projects (including urban redevelopment and beautification), often justified as serving the interests of the people and for public good, have caused massive displacements in different parts of the country, disrupting the lives and livelihoods of millions of people.The interdisciplinary essays presented here combine a rich mix of research methods and include in-depth case studies on aspects of development-induced displacement affecting diverse groups such as peasants, religious and ethnic minorities, the poor in urban and rural areas, and women, leading to their exclusion and marginalization. 9780367739058 0367739054pS�^ m�vCg�R0?e�lNwm N�lt;Power, Politics And Maritime Governance In The Indian OceanFThe indian ocean is of tremendous geo-political and strategic relevance. More than;eighty per cent of global seaborne trade in oil passes through the ocean. Access to resources is under-regulated (fishing) or has yet to be conceived (deep sea bed mining) and security concerns such as piracy and th< e stability of strategically located states, are propelling countries to rethink naval capabilities and priorities. This applies to littoral countries as well as to extra-regional powers such as china, japan, european countries and the united states, each of which is keenly interested in maintaining and securing open sea-lanes of communication. The revival in maritime concern is prompting new dynamics of competition and cooperation in a region that has historically been characterised by dense cultural, economic and political networks. 9781138828872 9780367735296 0367735296�VE�ONYe���t��N�[��U\g"International Enterprise Education#Perspectives On Theory And Practice}The important debate on the growing graduate skills gaps, the value of universities to their business communities, and their role (or lack of ) in building entrepreneurial attributes among graduates is growing internationally.Using case studies from universities across the globe, this edited book seeks to bring together leading authors with knowledge, and/or experience, of the challenges of embedding enterprise education in university and college programmes.

Its premise is that "the ottoman empire" did not come to an end until 1950 so far as islam was concerned in turkey.The work explores the relationship between elmalili s qur an commentary and the intellectual trends of the period, including the impact of materialism, the sciences, notions of civilizational progress, and philosophy. In doing so, this study emphasizes the "local" aspect of the qur an commentary, through a sustained focus on the istanbul context in which it was written. This work demonstrates that elmalili s qur an commentary is a product of and reaction to the religious, intellectual, political, and social trends of the period. This work, in considering all the factors that led to the commissioning of elmalili s qur an commentary, also contributes to our understanding of the history of islam in early to mid-twentieth-century turkey. 9781138336926 9780367729158 0367729156@b gCg0"��R#��NN�l�_��f�^V{euN�S!P��/Ownership, Financial Accountability And The Law/Transparency Strategies And Counter-initiatives Paul Beckett6There is something visceral about ownership. This is mine; you can t have it. This is mine; you can share it. This is ours. Try to find it.Contemporary literature and investigative journalism are showing that the scale of the problem of tax evasion, money laundering, organised crime, terrorism, bribery, corruption and gross human rights abuses is vast.Ownership  specifically, the quest to identify beneficial owners - has been chosen by national and international regulators as the touchstone, the litmus test in the fight back. An owner by definition must possess something for which they are financially accountable. But what is meant by "ownership"? this book explains why ownership is pivotal to accountability, and what ownership means in common law, civil law and shariah law terms. It looks in detail at state, regional and international transparency strategies and at an equally powerful global private counter-initiative to promote beneficial ownership avoidance through the use of so-called "orphan structures". Where there is no owner, there is no accountability. 9781138359888 9780367733636 0367733633 Ra���[�̀ofNU\gCreative LeadershipContexts And Prospects�There has never been a better time to study, practice, and experience creative leadership. In the fluid and turbulent economic and social environments of the 21st century, creative leadership has become a cardinal force in the creation and evolution of adaptive organizations. In the last two decades, organizational science has witnessed a rapid increase in the number of studies on the nature, skills, and processes of creative leadership. The resulting accumulated body of knowledge has remained for many years dispersed and fragmented across multiple strands of organizational research. This volume seeks to foster the cross-fertilization of scientific knowledge and insight by bringing together authoritative contributions from leading scholars whose work is located in different strands of creative leadership research. Creative leadership: contexts and prospects builds upon a recently introduced multi-context framework that integrates metatheoretically three conceptualizations of creative leadership found in the extant literature: facilitating employee creativity; directing the<  materialization of a leader s creative vision; and integrating heterogeneous creative contributions. 9780367729394 0367729393'k2mzz��?eV{�Ǐ�S�vTv^0S_MRbN*gegU\gA European Space Policy>Past Consolidation, Present Challenges And Future Perspectives�This book builds a bridge between current research in space policy and contemporary european political studies by addressing developments in european space policy and its significance for european integration. It answers questions central to european studies applying them to the burgeoning field of eu space policy and takes an interdisciplinary approach, examining space policy in the light of a range of policy areas including common foreign security policy, technology policy, transport policy and internal market. Using a theoretical framework based around notions of neo-institutionalism to evaluate the evolving nature of space policy in europe, the book provides clear insights into the development of the sector and the resulting developments made to the european political landscape. This text will be of key interest to scholars and students of space policy, eu studies/politics, european studies/politics, international relations, political science, history economics and security studies. 9780367738990 0367738996 econometricsؚ���NfNP�6R��US�v�VfN�R`4High Frequency Trading And Limit Order Book Dynamics~This book brings together the latest research in the areas of market microstructure and high-frequency finance along with new econometric methods to address critical practical issues in these areas of research.

Based on some 200 interviews, it empirically studies the visions of peace that professional peaceworkers from the netherlands, lebanon and mindanao (philippines) are working on. As such, it seeks to add a strong empirical element to the debate on liberal peacebuilding.The main argument of the book is that amongst practitioners, there is no liberal peace consensus at all. Rather, peace professionals work on a distinct set of peaces, that differ along four dimensions.In five case study chapters, the operational visions of peace held by dutch military officers, diplomats and civil society peace workers, as well as civil society peace workers from lebanon and the philippines are explored and compared to each other.

With contributions from a multi-disciplinary range of experts, it traces the role of policing within and across settings that are connected by the shared legacy of portuguese colonialism. Previously neglected < within studies of the globalisation of policing, the lusophone experience brings novel insights to established analyses of colonial, post-colonial and transnational policing. This compilation draws research attention to the policing peculiarities of the lusophone community. It proposes new cultural settings within which to test dominant theories of policing research. It uncovers an important piece of the jigsaw that is policing across the globe. 9780367739003 0367739003aging and health �QQg�[�^N͑QX�N{| g�R+Rural Families And Reshaping Human Services�This collection presents creative strategies and programs designed to address needs of families in the context of rural communities. Even before the most recent worldwide economic crisis, many rural families in the united states struggled to meet basic needs. As needs in rural communities have expanded, services have shrunk. This book identifies rural families needs, including social supports during pregnancy, identification of adolescent risk behaviours, child safety, and basic services such as food and health care, using techniques such as geographic information systems and needs and asset assessments. Strategies to address those needs include program development, the use of technology, and community partnerships. The book reminds readers of the sense of independence and self-reliance found in many rural communities and the theme of diversity within rural communities runs throughout the book. 9781138787926 9780367717476 0367717476�o'Y)R�N�e_��]NS>yO-N�v�N{|f[xvzAustralian Ways4Anthropological Studies In An Industrialised Society=This collection, the first of its kind in australia, illustrates the richness of data and analysis born of the anthropological study of contemporary white australian society.The studies presented here deal with diverse settings and events, ranging from a community's responses to a bushfire in rural nsw to the messages encoded in a male strip show in adelaide.

Hatry was the son of jewish immigrant parents who became a company promoter and whose companies collapsed in 1929, leading to a crash on the london stock exchange. He was brought down by a desperate fraud. At his trial three months later, the judge said that he could not imagine a worse crime.Analysing transactions in detail, the book reveals hatry s brilliance as a manipulator and a world-class networker and persuader. It also demonstrates his vain belief in his ability to overcome any risks and his insecurity which led him to surround himself with sycophants who would not challenge his ideas. It shows how others used hatry to make money, and, as he destroyed himself, as a scapegoat who distracted from the city s failings. 9780367135003 9780367731922 0367731924��V��k�]N �~1200-�~1560+The English Woollen Industry, C.1200-c.1560 John Oldland�This is the first book to describe the early english woollens industry and its dominance of the trade in quality cloth across europe by the mid-sixteenth century, as english trade was transformed from dependence on wool to value-added woollen cloth. It compares english and continental draperies, weighs the advantages of urban and rural production, and examines both quality and coarse cloths. Rural clothiers who made broadcloth to a consistent high quality at relatively low cost, merchant adventurers who enjoyed a trade monopoly with the low countries, and antwerp s artisans who finished cloth to customers needs all eventually combined to make english woollens unbeatable on the continent. 9780367732196 036773219X< ���V�['`NAm�R'`�vyb$RU\g���u;m7Critical Perspectives On Linguistic Fixity And FluidityLanguagised Lives�This volume offers a critical perspective on current views on linguistic fixity and fluidity in sociolinguistics and highlights empirical accounts alternative to prevailing trends in the field. Featuring accounts from a broad range of regional contexts, the collection takes stock of such terms as "polylingualism", "metrolingualism" and "translanguaging" to question perceptions around multilingual and monolingual language use. The book critiques the status of fluid language use as a more "natural" language practice and in turn, its greater potential for corresponding social transformation, demonstrating the value of linguistic fixity and the continuous debate between fixity and fluidity in multilingual speakers' lives. In providing these accounts, the book seeks not to advocate for linguistic fixity or fluidity, but to argue that sociolinguists pay close attention to the way both types of linguistic practice open up or close down avenues for social transformation. 9780367739577 0367739577�e'k�N�e�ZSONew Media In New Europe-asia�This volume offers an in-depth investigation of the role of new media in the political, social and cultural life in the region of europe-asia. By focusing on new media, which is understood primarily as internet-enabled networked social practice, the book puts forward a political and cultural redefinition of the region which is determined by the recognition of the diversity of new media uses in the countries included in the study. This book focuses on the period prior to the advent of  world internet revolutions , and it registers the region at its pivotal moment at the time of its entry into the post-broadcast era. Does the internet aid democratisation or it conditioned by socio-political norms? has the internet changed politics or has it had to fit existing political structures? has the use of digital technologies revolutionized election campaigns? how is hyperlinked society different from society prior to the advent of the web? how do ordinary people actually use the internet. 9780415737098 9780367734688 0367734680υ�~���Rϑ�v]w���[pS�^?e�l�v�S`Rise Of Saffron PowerReflections On Indian Politics!This volume looks at the impact of the landmark 2014 elections and the consequent assembly elections which have transformed the ideological discourse of india.

This book contributes to a deeper understanding of transitional justice by examining the complexities of transition in postcolonial societies. It focuses particularly on zimbabwe but draws on relevant comparative material from other postcolonial polities. Examples include but are not limited to african countries such as south africa, rwanda and mozambique. European societies such as northern ireland, as well as other nations such as guatemala, are also considered. While amplifying the breadth of the subject of transitional justice, the book addresses the claim that transitional justice mechanisms in postcolonial countries are necessary if the rule of law and the credibility of the country s legal institutions are to be restored. 9781138485747 9780367736095 0367736098:N��S9e�ы"Adapting Translation For The StageGeraldine Brodie And Emma Cole�Translating for performance is a difficult  and hotly contested  activity.

This disposition has worsened since 9/11 and the 2008 great recession. This ground-breaking study shows that just as dissent involves far more than protest marches, so too liberal-democratic states have expanded the criminalization of dissent. Drawing on political and social theorists like arendt, bourdieu and isin, the book offers a new way of thinking about politics, dissent and its criminalization relationally. Using case studies like the occupy movement, selective refusal by israeli soldiers, urban squatters, democratic education and violence by anti-apartheid activists, the book highlights the many forms dissent takes along with the many ways liberal-democratic states criminalize it. 9781138488717 9780367730888 036773088X �N�Nl�e�_�Ts^xvz$Engaging Ethnographic Peace ResearchLWhile many have argued in the past decade that peace and conflict studies must engage more with local actors and communities, and scholars regularly describe the importance of local context and culture for building sustainable peace, there are substantial challenges methodologically to fulfilling this  local turn . Many peace and conflict studies scholars are inexperienced with methods appropriate for engaging with local communities, contexts and cultures, and many of the important institutions in the field, from key journals to important funders, exhibit a continuing preference for quantitative studies. The ethnographic peace research (epr) agenda has recently been developed in response to these challenges and is one of the key avenues to providing a methodological complement to the more theoretically-focused local turn literature. 9780367733711 0367733714Routledge ʐ:ScWS&The Routledge Companion To The SuburbsyThe routledge companion to the suburbs provides one of the most comprehensive examinations available to date of the suburbs around the world.

This volume brings together the leading scholars of the suburbs researching in different parts of the world to better understand how and why suburbs and their communities grow, decline, and regenerate. The volume sets out four goals: 1) to provide a synthesis and critical appraisal of the historical and current state of understanding about the development of suburbs in the world; 2) to provide a forum for a comprehensive examination into the conceptual, theoretical, spatial, and empirical discontents of suburbanization; 3) to engage in a scholarly conversation about the transformation of suburbs that is interdisciplinary in nature and bridges the divide between the global north and the global south; and 4) to reflect on the implications of the socioeconomic, cultural, and political transformations of the suburbs for policymakers and planners.466 9781950688432 1950688437^�%�)R'`�[SO 2020��R:_�[��ڋ�O�O�b"��R�bJTL�N�SU\rNot-for-profit Entities 2020: Strengthening Audit Integrity Safeguarding Financial Reporting Industry DevelopmentsAicpa Audit Guide5135[This not-for-profit industry development audit risk alert shows changes on the horizon as well as current business environment issues and accounting and auditing challenges such as: cybersecurity and outsourcing implementation of fasb's revenue recognition standards changes to the auditor's report preparation for fasb's leases and other accounting standards updates delivered in an easily digestible format, this alert also covers legislative and regulatory issues like the unrelated business income tax and changes to irs form 990-t as well as a discussion of the department of labor's overtime rule. 9780367734831 0367734834africa / regional developmentRoutledge ^�2m�SU\Kb�Q-The Routledge Handbook Of African Development�This handbook presents an extensive new overview of african development  past, present and future.

The resistant object of architecture addresses this problem, and does so in a way that represents a marked departure from predominant responses which, as the book shows, do not address the core issue.The book addresses this problem by focusing on the question  what is architecture? , and responds to this question by developing the immanent structural logic of architecture that enables it to work not only as an instrumental thinking practice, but as a practice of creative thinking. This means that it alone determines its issues, problems, and priorities, and precisely because of that it has the capacity and cogency to destabilise, indeed pierce holes in the system in which it operates. 9780367728366 0367728362 S�g0W?e�l0�ZSON�Rϑ#Arctic Geopolitics, Media And Power(Annika Nilsson E.

Far-reaching impacts of climate change, its wealth of resources and potential for new commercial activities have placed the arctic region into the;political limelight. In an era of rapid environmental change, the arctic provides a complex and challenging case of geopolitical interplay. Based on analyses of how actors from within and outside the arctic region assert their interests and how such discourses travel in the media, this book scrutinizes the social and material contexts within which new imaginaries, spatial constructs and scalar preferences emerge.

This is all driven both by economic rationalism, and by changing expectations of what governments can and should do. An important aspect of this accountability and governance process is the establishment and effective functioning of a public accounts committee (pac), a key component of democratic accountability. With contributions from renowned scholars and practitioners, and using case studies from around the world, this research-based collection examines the rationales for current roles of the pacs and explores the links between pacs and national audit offices.

The authors provide an analytical basis for the quantitative methodology of dynamic valuation, mitigation, and hedging of bilateral counterparty risk on over-the-counter (otc) derivative contracts under funding constraints. They explore credit, debt, funding, liquidity, and rating valuation adjustment (cva, dva, fva, lva, and rva) as well as replacement cost (rc), wrong-way risk, multiple funding curves, and collateral. The first part of the book assesses today s financial landscape, including the current multi-curve reality of financial markets. In mathematical but model-free terms, the second part describes all the basic elements of the pricing and hedging framework. Taking a more practical slant, the third part introduces a reduced-form modeling approach in which the risk of default of the two parties only shows up through their default intensities.

Through detailed accounts of his performances during this period, and drawing on theories of affect, the book argues that these productions work through conditions of contemporary cultural crisis  symptomatic of neoliberalism  in specific ways. Farrell considers the ways in which post-tragedy is a performance style that has emerged as both symptom and balm to neoliberal apathy. She also considers the limits at which theatre can intervene with neoliberalism.By bringing kosky to the forefront of discussions of contemporary theatre and adaptation, this study contributes to theories of affect and performance; provides an in-depth engagement with a single director s work; and assembles a comprehensive theoretical framework to critically illuminate adaptations o< f classical tragedy in contemporary theatre and performance 9781350056121 135005612Xsocial & cultural anthropologya�[Ye��A Sensory EducationSensory Studies Anna Harris�A sensory education takes a close look at how sensory awareness is learned and taught in expert and everyday settings around the world.

The most well studied form of allocating these resources is through outright contributions to operating external foundations and other nonprofit organizations. However, far less is known about the use of corporate foundations, separate and independent nonprofit entities aimed at channeling corporate giving to a social mission related to a company.Corporate foundations are often linkedto the founding company through their name, funding, trustees, administration and potential employee involvement. As these foundations are growing in number, size and importance and becoming increasingly visible in the philanthropic sector, the urgency to understand their role and functioning becomes more important.The primary aim of this volume is to deliver a holistic analysis of the current state-of-the-art on corporate foundations. For that reason, the book includes different perspectives on and use a hybrid concept of corporate foundations. The book includes three main parts.

The author advocates, instead, the novel concept that the project manager or team leader should coach the team as part of their role. Managing complexity requires greater use of influence and less reliance on coercion. Learning how to recognise the clues that reveal personal preferences, character traits and motivations will allow you to communicate in a way that recognises how different team members see the world. Team coaching helps the project team work together to think through their issues and then collectively implement the solution. Tony llewellyn has structured his book in two parts.

This is also true of theory being informed by practice. Too often, there are gaps between what is studied in the academy and what is needed in the field. The academy develops theories in isolation from the everyday lives of people, especially in post-conflict environments. Communities seeking innovative ways to address their social needs can benefit from the learning of theories and research conducted within academia. At the same time, these methods need to be relevant to the local contexts within which they are being used. While there are certain norms of communication in the academy of how research is conducted and disseminated, there needs to be a translation into practical terms to be used in the field. 9780367186104 0367186101oXTΘNCgЏ�R��V�[N�VE�U\g%The British Women's Suffrage Campaign'National And International PerspectivesWomen's And Gender HistorypThis book brings together twelve chapters from feminist historians from around the world to offer new perspectives on aspects of the campaign for women s suffrage in britain.Although the focus is on britain, this volume signals how the women s suffrage campaign in britain embraced both national and global aspects.

Noyes[Peter paul rubens and the crisis of the beati moderni takes up the question of the issues involved in the formation of recent saints - or beati moderni (modern blesseds) as they were called - by the jesuits and oratorians in the new environment of increased strictures and censorship that developed after the council of trent with respect to legal canonization procedures and cultic devotion to the saints. Ruth noyes focuses particularly on how the new regulations pertained to the creation of emerging cults of those not yet canonized, the so-called beati moderni, such as jesuit founders francis xavier and ignatius loyola, and filippo neri, founder of the oratorians. Centrally involved in the book is the question of the fate and meaning of the two altarpiece paintings commissioned by the oratorians from peter paul rubens. The congregation rejected his first altarpiece because it too specifically identified<  filippo neri as a cult figure to be venerated (before his actual canonization) and thus was caught up in the politics of cult formation and the papacy s desire to control such pre-canonization cults. 9781472484796 6���'Yf[,&Ofe'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[ 9780367469436 036746943X$�e*X�v�~�~�NN'k2mh�oz�/g�v�vsQ'`N��S 1770-1860�(��uYeĉTRelevance And Marginalisation In Scandinavian And European Performing Arts 1770 1860Questioning CanonsRelevance and marginalisation in scandinavian and european performing arts 1770 1860: questioning canons reveals how various cultural processes have influenced what has been included, and what has been marginalised from canons of european music, dance and theatre around the turn of the nineteenth century and the following decades.

By addressing developments from the hyper-literate school tradition, and integrating discussion of the children s troupes into the critical conversation around popular playing practices, mccarthy offers a nuanced account of the play-centered, literary performance tradition that came to define professional theater in this period. 9780367733056 0367733056zfga0R�gN��v`�v��penc�e�N�vteSO�QV{%Wisdom, Analytics And Wicked Problems)Integral Decision Making For The Data AgeAli Intezari And David PauleenGower6The challenges faced by 21st-century businesses, organizations and governments are characterized as being fundamentally different in nature, scope and levels of impact from those of the past. As problems become increasingly complex and wicked, conventional reductive approaches and data-based solutions are limited. The authors argue that practical wisdom is required.This book provides an integral and practical model for incorporating wisdom into management decision making. Based on a cross-disciplinary conceptualization of practical wisdom, the authors distinguish systematically between data, information, knowledge, and wisdom-based decision making. While they suggest that data, analytics, information and knowledge can assist decision-makers to better deal with complex and wicked problems, they argue that data-based systems cannot replace optimized human decision-making capabilities. These capabilities, the authors explain, include a range of qualities and characteristics inherent in philosophical, psychological and organizational conceptions of practical wisdom. 9780367734343 0367734346 ͑�exvzpS�^�S�S N�vl��W*Re-searching Transitions In Indian HistoryThe idea of transitions in indian history emerged early when the term  transition denoted shifts from one period to another. The notion of transition itself has moved beyond being primarily economic to include dimensions of society, culture and ideology. This volume brings together scholarly works that re-examine and re-define the concept of transition by looking into a range of subjects including religion, culture, gender, caste and community networks, maritime and mercantile modes, ideas of nationalism and historiographies across geographical and temporal settings. With contributions by leading scholars from south asia, this book will be useful to scholars and researchers of ancient history, modern indian history, sociology and social anthropology, and south asian studies. 9780367717483 0367717484�o'Y)R�N�v�e�N�N��Tt^{��NN�t^�N�v�Australia's New AgedIssues For Young And Old"John Mccallum And Karin GeiselhartbThe idea that our society is ageing is a popular source of gloomy predictions for the future. We see today's youth struggling in their mature years to pay for the masses of geriatric baby boomers whose productive years lie far behind.Australia's new aged shows that this belief is part reality and part myth. While there will be an increase in the proportion of aged people in the next 20 years, this is a temporary phenomenon and it is likely that tomorrow's elderly will quite differently from their parents.Australia's new aged examines public policy for the aged in the context of an increasingly vocal and active elderly population and cutbacks to health and welfare spending. The authors argue that policy makers have become trapped in a 'social problem' approach to ageing that assumes the elderly are a homogeneous, disadvantaged group with common interests. 9780367739461 0367739461Sb4x�Q�z�v!j_���V01r\pQNS1r\pQ�Breaking Patterns Of Conflict2Britain, Ireland And The Northern Ireland QuestionbThe role of external powers and international bodies in efforts to break patterns of conflict and to install stable and durable peace settlements is well known. This book focuses on an unusual case where the sovereign state and a neighbour state help broker an agreed settlement in a disputed and conflictual region. It analyses the roles of the british and irish governments in pursuing political stability in northern ireland, a disputed region of the united kingdom over which the irish state has had a territorial claim.The book focuses on the changes in the british state, whose writ extends over northern ireland, but also the irish state, which surrendered a strong formal but ineffective claim to jurisdiction over northern ireland for the reality of a significant voice in its political future. These changes ultimately facilitated the process of settlement leading to the 1998 good friday agreement, and the later transformation of institutions and political relations in northern ireland and between the uk and ireland. It innovates by using a new oral archive of elite interviews built up over the past decade. 9780367671402 0367671409 terrorism�N2mP``;NINN�SqN��[P``;NINNRˆ;NINЏ�R�vS_�N��[ Terrorism And Insurgency In Asia@A Contemporary Examination Of Terrorist And Separatist Movements�The rise of the islamic state since 2014 has led to the re-emergence of terrorism as a serious security threat in asia. Coupled with the ongoing terrorism and insurgency challenges from both radical religious extremists and also ethno-nationalist insurgencies, it is clear that some parts of asia remain mired in armed rebellion despite decades of nation-building. While the situation in afghanistan and pakistan has obviously deteriorated, there is also a growing terrorist challenge< , on top of armed insurgencies, in other parts of asia. A common theme in armed rebellions in the region has been the lack of legitimacy of the state and the presence of fundamental causes stemming from political, economic or social grievances. Addressing rebellion in the region thus requires a comprehensive approach involving transnational co-operation, addressing fundamental grievances, and also the use of more innovative approaches, such as religious rehabilitation and reconciliation programmes. 9781857439182nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[ 9780367730543 0367730545Ra\O�T`��eg��VE��e�Q\OBg�_�vċ��Thinking Creative Writing3Critique From The International New Writing Journal/Thinking creative writing explores the many ways in which creative writing can be critically considered, and understood, as well as the teaching and learning of creative writing.

The first two editions of this book, published as food biotechnology in ethical perspective in 1997 and 2007, were the first comprehensive philosophical studies of genetic engineering applied to food systems. The book is structured with chapter length treatments of risk in four categories: food safety, to animals, to the environment and socio-economic risks. These chapters are preceded by two chapters providing orientation to the uses of gene technology in food and agriculture, and to the goals, methods and background assumptions of technological ethics. There is also a chapter covering all four types of risk as applied to the first us technology, recombinant bovine somatotropin.

Yet, despite this dissatisfaction, there are few concrete moves to investigate alternative methods of gauging the success or failure of peace initiatives. This volume explores alternative methods of assessing peace. These methods tend to be bottom-up and people-centric and are interested in many aspects of conflict societies that orthodox top-down indicators often miss. The methods explored in this work chime with the contemporary interest in critical approaches to peace and conflict studies, and approaches that are interested in local perspectives. The volume also connects with a growing interest in civic epistemology, or the co-production of data whereby research  subjects participate in the research and have a chance of understanding the relevance of research. 9781138793354 9780367729837 0367729830early childhood'k2mN��V�v|^?QYe��N�bt(�ϑ��i�_S0a�ϑN?eV{�@Early Childhood Education And Care Quality In Europe And The Usa3Issues Of Conceptualization, Measurement And Policy�This book captures information about early childhood education and care (ecec) policies and practices in different countries and aims to question the degree to which these countries have managed to meet the needs of children, families, and the ecec workforce. The book illustrates how different countries have adapted different strategies focusing on policy when it comes to quality ecec. The goal of the book is twofold. First and foremost, it aims to present key findings and challenges for improving ecec as a whole. Second, it aims to highlight problems and concerns which the field of ecec faces, with respect to delivering high-quality care and education to all children. As neither  ecec nor  quality are universal concepts  but are shaped by social-cultural values, as well as nat< ional, economic, and political contexts in which ecec services are provided  this cross-country volume is extremely relevant for fully understanding issues in the field of ecec. 9780367670665 0367670666�h�g��Vxvzu(W�~>y�NQ�~�vO(u�Omȉ荇eS�vf[/g�~��GExamining The Use Of Online Social Networks By Korean Graduate Students-Navigating Intercultural Academic Experiences Joong-hwan OhWThis book examines how former, current and prospective korean graduate students navigate american universities, especially with regard to the student-advisor relationship.

It is based on extensive original research by scholars using the methodology of historical anthropology, an approach that has transformed the study of chinese history by approaching the subject from the bottom up. Its nine chapters, each based on a different region of china, examine the nature of ming military institutions and how they interacted with local social life over time. Several chapters consider the distinctive role of imperial institutions in frontier areas and how they interacted with and affected non-han ethnic groups and ethnic identity. Others discuss the long-term legacy of ming military institutions, especially across the dynastic divide from ming to qing (1644-1912) and the implications of this for understanding more fully the nature of the qing rule.

For many critics, natural law is not natural but a fa�ade behind which lurks the supernatural  that is, revealed religion. While current notions of natural law are based on either aristotelian/thomistic principles or on enlightenment rationalism, the book shows how vico was the only natural law thinker to draw on the roman legal tradition, rather than on greek or enlightenment philosophy. Specifically, the book addresses how vico, drawing his inspiration from roman history, incorporated both rhetoric and religion into a dynamic concept of natural law grounded in what he called the sensus communis: the entire repertoire of values, images, institutions, and even prejudices that a community takes for granted. 9780367191061 9780367733551 0367733552european union policy'k�v㉳Q�Q�z�v�e�l���]\r^0W:S�vl��W؏/f�v�{�4The European Union s Approach To Conflict Resolution4Transformation Or Regulation In The Western Balkans?Laurence CooleyThis book investigates and explains the european union s approach to conflict resolution in three countries of the western balkans: bosnia and herzegovina, macedonia and kosovo. In doing so, it critically interrogates claims that the eu acts as an agent of conflict transformation in its engagement with conflict-affected states. The book argues, contrary to the assumptions of much of the existing literature, that rather than seeking the transformation of conflicts, the eu pursues a more conservative strategy based on the regulation of conflict through the promotion of institutional mechanisms such as consociational power sharing and decentralisation.Drawing on discourse analysis of documents, speeches, and interviews conducted by the author with european union officials and policy-makers in brussels and the case-study countries, the book offers a theoretically grounded, methodologically rigorous and empirically detailed analysis of eu policy preferences, of the ideas that underpin them, and of how those preferences are legitimised. 9783030286521 3030286525sociological theory����Qi�Understanding Risk-taking(Critical Studies In Risk And Uncertainty Jens O. ZinnThis book outlines and systematises findings from a growing body of research that examines the different rationales, dimensions and dynamics of risk-taking in current societies; providing insight into the different motivations and social roots of risk-taking to advance scholarly debates and improve social regulation.Conceptually, the book goes beyond common approaches which problematise socially undesirable risk-taking,or highlight the alluring character of risk-taking. Instead, it follows a broadly interpretivist approach and engages in examining motives, control, routinisation, reflexivity, skills, resources, the role of identity in risk-taking and how these are rooted in and framed by different social forces.Zinn draws on qualitative studies from different theoretical and conceptual backgrounds such as phenomenology, hermeneutics, pragmatism, feminism, class analysis, theory of practice and discourse analysis among others, to outline key distinctions and concepts central to the understanding of risk-taking. 9780367735241 0367735245 hQt N�n-N�v�~Nmt��N?eV{3Economic Theory And Policy Amidst Global Discontent�This book rethinks economic theory and calls for a creative and pragmatic approach to policymaking. It examines what development and sustenance of economic progress mean, and how these may be facilitated. The relevance of this issue has received fresh impetus from the significant changes in the degree and pattern of international economic relations that are unfolding across the world, posing both opportunities and challenges. While globalisation of goods and financial markets may have delivered high growth for some nations, the distribution of the benefits has often been highly unequal, with gains to owners of capital and skills being disproportionately higher compared to that of labour, especially the unskilled.Widening and persistent;inequalities have been at the heart of rising polarisation and spread of conflicts that threaten the social fabric. This work emphasises the relevance of a broad policy framework based on building individual capabilities and in line with a human-centric perspective. 9780367728946 036772894XN6r�k�S�[�NNw�ۏL�|^?QYe��>Working With Parents And Families In Early Childhood EducationPThis book reports initiatives to listen to parents and families, to ascertain what families believe and do as they seek to engage collaboratively with their children s educators, and what educators and educational systems might do to facilitate and/o< r establish barriers to such engagement.Parental engagement in children s learning and development has many positive benefits. However, in the current environments of accountability and performativity which are pervading early childhood education in many countries, the opportunities for parents and other family members to be part of the development of respectful, collaborative relationships with their children s early childhood educators are becoming more and more restricted.

Sharing many historical developments and institutional characteristics, spain and portugal also present crucial differences, notably spain s pure parliamentary system, a king as head of state and a quasi-federal structure, and portugal s semi-presidential democracy. Starting with a historical and institutional contextualization of these two legislatures, the book examines the most important organizational and behavioural features of legislative life in iberian legislatures in a comparative perspective. It also shows how new legislatures develop resilience capacity to support lasting democratic systems as fully fledged institutionalized bodies. 9789004443181 9004443185&#W�W�v^y#W�lR��N6�d�Q w�Q��t\�[eY�e�f�N�vcb�1829-1841t^ �Sacred Law In The Holy CityHThe Khedival Challenge To The Ottomans As Seen From Jerusalem, 1829-1841Judith Mendelsohn Rood�This volume analyzes the political and socio-economic roles of the muslim community of jerusalem in the ottoman period by focusing upon the rebellion of 1834 against muhammad ali from a natural law perspective using the archives of the islamic court. 9783030147129 3030147126cultural theory1g̑�myr�f - �eS0���_N�S�S��eS&{�Sf[���e)Juri Lotman - Culture, Memory And HistoryEssays In Cultural Semiotics Marek Tamm�This volume brings together a selection of juri lotman s late essays, published between 1979 and 1995.

Covering technologies from machine translation to online collaborative platforms, and practices from  traditional translation to crowdsourced translation and subtitling, this volume takes a critical stance, questioning both utopian and dystopian visions of translation technology. In eight chapters, the authors propose ideas on how technologies can better serve translators and end users of translations.

This book brings together international authors from the fields of sociology, human geography, and anthropology to support the development of space-sensitive and de-territorialised perspectives on the family that reach beyond classical concepts such as the  household or the  nuclear family .

Through the establishment of trade routes, the encounter with the  new world , and the circulation of concepts and norms across global space, meaning making and social connections have unfolded through practices of translating. While translation is core to international relations it has been relatively neglected in the discipline of international relations. The politics of translation in international relations remedies this neglect to suggest an understanding of translation that transcends language to encompass a broad range of recurrent social and political practices. The volume provides a wide variety of case studies, including financial regulation, gender training programs, and grassroot movements. Contributors situate the politics of translation in the theoretical and methodological landscape of international relations, encompassing feminist theory, de- and post-colonial theory, hermeneutics, post-structuralism, critical constructivism, semiotics, conceptual history, actor-network theory and translation studies. 9780367734299 036773429XEpeW[�e�N�N2m�v��Yef[�hQtlQl���N�,{15J\�N2m TEFL ��Yef[N,{64J\ TEFLIN �VE���Yef[�VE�O�� 2017 / O��U_?Elt In Asia In The Digital Era: Global Citizenship And Identity�Proceedings Of The 15th Asia Tefl And 64th Teflin International Conference On English Language Teaching, July 13-15, 2017, Yogyakarta, Indonesia578�This proceedings book captures a wide range of timely themes for readers to be able to foresee the digital era's impact on english teaching in non-english speaking countries.

From a national security perspective, it is not just the damage to the military, the economy, or essential critical infrastructure companies that is a concern. It is the cumulative, downstream effects from potential regional blackouts, military mission kills, transportation stoppages, water delivery or treatment issues, and so on. Cce is a validation that engineering first principles can be applied to the most important cybersecurity challenges and in so doing, protect organizations in ways current approaches do not. The most pressing threat is cyber-enabled sabotage, and cce begins with the assumption that well-resourced, adaptive adversaries are already in and have been for some time, undetected and perhaps undetectable.�yf[0�yf[xvz 9780367635978 0367635976!new teachers and teacher training(WYe�[̑�^Ǐ,{Nt^�vu;m�\f[Ye^�v12*N�kw�ڋ�[�b�]+Surviving Your First Years In The Classroom3Twelve Brutally Honest Tips For Elementary TeachersJordan Mckinney�Survive your first years as a teacher with the no-nonsense tips and stories in this book.

Curiously, however, commentators on csr rarely discuss the role of trade unions, while commentators on employment relations seldom engage with csr.

While some aspects of the context of research are well documented  for example, the non-linear nature of transitions  one major challenge is under-researched: the shrinking space for civil society, and so also for research, in many countries of the world. This shrinking space is a global phenomenon, but it particularly affects authoritarian and conflict-affected settings, as well as countries characterised by partial or stalled transitions. Shrinking space takes various forms, from physical attacks to legal restrictions and constraints on funding. This book explores why research is feared in such settings, but also how it can be conducted and how it can contest the restrictions faced.

It argues that most sustainable design approaches and efforts fall short of implementing holistic sustainability, and in order to reach this goal, design must be underpinned by alternatives to the mainstream, technology-intensive, industrial design paradigm. Renewable materials such as bamboo, cork and hemp  which are abundantly available in the developing world; have the potential to be a viable resource base for sustainable development. Current sustainable design initiatives and approaches already recontextualize these materials using industrial techniques and technologies. However, these efforts fall short of impacting holistic sustainability and tend to focus on the ecological aspect. This book offers the development of one alternative to design for holistic sustainability, called the rhizome approach, which draws on existing sustainability praxis and craft. 9781138479470 9781119327844 1119327849�eSxvz �S������e�v\/OyO�]\O�>yOlQckNLu�vt��N�[�� ,{2HrCritical Social Work0Theories And Practices For A Socially Just World(June Allan, Linda Briskman And Bob Pease&Another important contribution to the growing literature on critical social work.

Today, however, the inter-american human rights system (iahrs) has emerged as a central actor in the global human rights regime. This comprehensive volume explores the institutional changes and transformations that the iahrs has undergone since its creation, offering contributions and insights from a variety of disciplines including history, law, and political science.

Powerful religious hierarchies, the generation of often unregulated revenues from donations and endowments, the presence of holy sites and the enactment of ritualistic activities in public spaces combine to create forms of conflicts which are, arguably, more intense and more intractable than other forms of conflicts in cities. The book develops a working definition of the urban dimension of religious conflicts so that the kinds of conflicts exhibited can be contextualised and studied in a more targeted manner. 9780367729820 0367729822�S)R�NY�N?eV{�:S�W'Y�VT��vSyrian Foreign Policy!The Alliances Of A Regional PowerFrancesco Belcastro9Examining syrian foreign policy during the ba th years from 1963 to 1989, this book traces the alliances of the levantine country from a historical perspective and in the context of recent political developments.

Russia stands out globally as a leading sponsor of kin-state nationalism, vociferously claiming to defend the interests of its so-called diaspora, especially the tens of millions of ethnic russians and russian speakers who reside in the countries that were once part of the soviet union. However, this volume shifts focus away from the assertive diaspora politics of the russian state, towards the actual groups of russian speakers in the post-soviet space themselves.

These centuries were characterised by the rising of socio-political elites, in regions such as crete, italy, laconia, serbia, and;trebizond, that, while sharing cultural and artistic values influenced by the byzantine empire, were also developing innovative and original visual and cultural standards. The comparative and interdisciplinary framework offered by this volume aims to challenge established ideas concerning the late byzantine period such as decline, renewal, and innovation. 9780815372868 9780367734961 0367734966pS�^�R�R�l9ei��NR���NTN^�e�v TINLabour Law Reforms In IndiaAll In The Name Of JobsAnamitra RoychowdhuryLabour market flexibility is one of the most closely debated public policy issues in india. This book provides a theoretical framework to understand the subject, and empirically examines to what extent india s  jobless growth may be attributed to labour laws. There is a pervasive view that the country s low manufacturing base and inability to generate jobs is primarily due to rigid labour laws. Therefore, job creation is sought to be boosted by reforming labour laws. However, the book argues that if labour laws are made flexible, then there are adverse consequences for workers: dismantled job security weakens workers bargaining power, incapacitates trade union movement, skews class distribution of output, dilutes workers rights, and renders them vulnerable. 9781138713635 9780367671280 036767128X �6q�s�X�SS-N�v�e8n(Tourism In Changing Natural Environments�Natural environments, and the human interactions that occur within, are continuously changing and evolving.

The authors examine the numerous ways in which changes in the natural environment impact tourism, and how the tourism industry is responding and adapting to such changes, in both developed and developing regions. Through the various case studies that examine human interaction within what are often fragile ecosystems, this book makes it clear that, while adaptation can be passive in nature, it can and should be much more proactive, with individuals and organizations seeking improved knowledge and learning. 9780367194734 9780367737276 0367737272(western music styles (early & classical)�eyr�b�e!X�eYe�_�vo1U 1523-15414The Singing Of The Strasbourg Protestants, 1523-1541Daniel Trocme-latter�Music was, in some form or another, a pastime enjoyed by all in sixteenth-century society, and a fundamental part of their lives. It was both through the use of music and partly as a result of its existence that many religious changes occurred during the reformation. This book explores the part played by music, especially group singing, in the unfolding of the protestant reforms in strasbourg. It considers both ecclesiastical and  popular songs in the city, examining how both genres fitted into people s lives during this time of strife, and how the provision and dissemination of music as a whole affected, and in turn was affected by, the new ecclesiastical arrangement. Whilst it would be naive to assume that the congregations were transformed from impious to pious overnight as the result of the introduction of german hymns, it is clear that there were real and concerted efforts on the part of reformers to get people to embrace the new faith, and writing hymns for them to sing was central to the process. 9780367250317 0367250314Ye���sa�f[�cvz�t��0�[��0cE�Nc�[%Phenomenological Inquiry In Education0Theories, Practices, Provocations And Directions<Phenomenological inquiry in education is an edited collection of 16 chapters that offers a fascinating and diverse range of approaches and views about phenomenological inquiry as applied in educational research.

Questions have been raised not only about the suitability of museums to engage meaningfully with intangible heritage practices, but also about what exactly is meant by safeguarding intangible heritage within the context of contemporary museum practice. Intangible heritage and community participation engages in the debate by advancing a critical examination of participation as a theoretical, operation and methodological framework for the safeguarding of intangible heritage.Including case studies from france, belgium, the netherlands, denmark, greece, italy, cyprus, thailand and the uk, the book examines innovative methods used by a wide range of museums and heritage organisations in the areas of collecting, curating and exhibiting, but also in relation to cultural transmission and social activism.

Increasingly, scholars acknowledge that communication is constitutive of organization; because meaning is always indeterminate, communication also (and simultaneously) generates disorganization. The book synthesizes the major theoretical trends and empirical studies in communication that engage with dis/organization. Drawing on dialectics, relational ontologies, critical theory, systems theory, and affect thinking, the first part of the book offers communicational explanations of how dis/organization unfolds. The second part of the book grounds this theoretical reflection, providing empirical studies that mobilize diverse methodological and analytical frameworks (e.G., ethnography, situational, interactional and genre analysis) for studying the practices of dis/organization. 97811385883876���'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[ 9780367729462 0367729466YCQNLu-N�v�^���Ts^?e�l��f2��v�]_0The Politics Of Peacebuilding In A Diverse WorldDifference Exposed�This book challenges the understanding of  difference in the field of peacebuilding and offers new ways to consider diversity in the context of international interventions. International peacebuilding as a practice and academic field has always been embroiled in the  problem of difference. For mainstream scholars and policy-makers, local views, histories, and cultural codes are often seen as an obstacle on the way to peace. For critical scholars, international interventions have failed because of the very superficial attention given to the needs, values, and experience of the people in post-conflict societies. Yet the current proposals of hybrid peace and emancipation seem to reproduce eurocentric lenses and problematic binaries. Differently inspired by feminist, post-structuralist, and new materialist perspectives, the authors assembled in this volume give sustained attention to the theorisation and practice of difference. 9780367676223 0367676222 �ZSO�_tf[��c"}N�^(uMedia PsychologyExploration And Application Navin Kumar^This book examines media psychology as a field of study and provides a fundamental understanding of its emergence and application.

The volume presents a variety of undercurrents in locke s writing  his ideas on populationism, naturalization, colonization and the right to withdrawal, the plight of refugees, and territorial rights  which have great import in present-day debates about migration. Departing from the popular extant literature that sees locke advocating for a strong right to exclude foreigners, the author proposes a lockean theory of immigration that recognizes the fundamental right to emigrate, thus, catering to an age wrought with terrorism, xenophobia and economic inequality. 9780367344801 9783030293314 3030293319financial law/fiscal lawlQqQ�蕅Q萡[���v(�ϑ��n��O�R)R�NN�VE�̀of�vU\g1Quality Of Internal Auditing In The Public Sector9Perspectives From The Bulgarian And International ContextPlamena Nedyalkova�This book examines key methodological and organizational questions with regard to assessing the quality of internal audits.

Identifying the factors and forces that contribute to and reinforce the situation of bonded labour in south asia, the;book demonstrates how systems of bonded labour are connected to long-term processes of colonisation, dispossession, migration, nationalisation of natural resources, and the introduction of private land ownership. 9780367150921 9780367731632 0367731630�SP`�eS�9/11 KNT�l�VNa'Y)R�[P``;NIN�v�V�^Cultures Of Counterterrorism4French And Italian Responses To Terrorism After 9/11Silvia D'amato3This book investigates counterterrorism responses from a strategic-culturalist perspective, focusing on france and italy in the post-9/11 era. 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 counterterrorism 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. 9781138611412 9780367671617 0367671611�N2mpeW[�Nf��~Nm0�Oo`N>yO�NAmDigital Transactions In Asia-Economic, Informational, And Social Exchanges�This book presents a comprehensive overview of transactional forms of the digital across the asian region by addressing the platforms and infrastructures that shape the digital experience.

In capturing the digital revolution through case studies of economic, informational, and social exchanges from across the larger asian region, the book offers a richly contextualized and comparative account of the pervasive nature of the digital as both a < medium for action and a medium of record. 9781138353961 9780367728892 0367728893?e�lYCQS0RgkNckIN�Y-N�_l;NHh�O-Political Pluralism, Disagreement And Justice"The Case For Polycentric DemocracyJulian F. M�llerSThis book poses the question: how can we organize society in such a way that our disagreement about facts and norms works to the benefit of everyone? in response, it makes the argument for polycentric democracy, a political arrangement consisting of various political units that enjoy different degrees of independence.It is argued that to progress towards justice, we first need to change our attitude towards reasonable disagreement. Theorists have always viewed reasonable disagreement as nuisance, if not as a threat. However, this work puts forward that the diversity of perspectives which underlie reasonable disagreement should be viewed as a resource to be harvested rather than a threat to be tamed. Resting on two key arguments, the author proposes the idea of polycentric democracy as the most capable method of making pluralism productive. 9781119785910 111978591X�~;N�[b�N�]\O0u;m�T*geg�v:ghV�vN\%N�S�v�`fNRMonster: A Tough Love Letter To The Machines That Rule Our Jobs, Lives, And Future Paul RoehrigThis book poses the troubling question, "have we inadvertently created a technology monster (everything from smart phones to big data) that despite all its gifts, is hurting our society, economy and psychology? and if so, what can we do about it?" from deep fakes and disinformation campaigns, through our growing addiction to mobile phones, to the "winner takes all" nature of modern technology platforms, it is becoming clearer that accelerating digitalization has the potential to do as much harm as good.

While marxists hav< e long criticized  populists for ignoring capitalism and class, populists have charged marxists with historical determinism. This ongoing debate has now reached something of an impasse, in part because new empirical work addressing the complex contemporary patterns and conjunctures of global agrarian capitalism offers exciting new horizons, along with new and generative theoretical reconstructions of marxism itself. This book helps to point the way beyond this impasse, and illustrates that agrarian marxism remains a dynamic theoretical program that offers powerful insights into agrarian change and politics in the twenty-first century.This book was originally published as a special issue of the journal of peasant studies. 9780367735180 0367735180ё���y�b�vtQw�N�SU\�eg�^txQ�SvQ�N0W:S�v4xOW�c��#The Rise And Development Of Fintech-Accounts Of Disruption From Sweden And Beyond\This comprehensive guide serves to illuminate the rise and development of fintech in sweden, with the internet as the key underlying driver.

In order to explore concrete alternatives in a period of increasing capitalist globalisation and crisis, it goes on to present perspectives by which theory and practice might be reunited to building independent political and organisational structures. 9781138344280 9781138480322 1138480320-N�V�QY1\�~��_�[N�e8n(uIl� China Ready!#Chinese For Hospitality And Tourism'Catherine Hua Xiang And Xuan Lorna Wang�China ready! prepares students and independent learners to work in the hospitality and tourism industry for high value tourism business coming from china to english speaking countries.

Whereas a few years ago, the prospect of unmanned and autonomous vessels sailing on the seas was considered unrealistic, the debate now centers on when and in what format and pace the development will take place. Law has a key role to play in this development and legal obstacles are often singled out as principal barriers to the rapid introduction of new technologies in shipping. Within a few years, autonomous ships have turned from a non-issue to one of the main regulatory topics being addressed by the international maritime organization. However, the regulatory discussion is still in its infancy, and while many new questions have been raised, few answers have been provided to them to date. Increased automation of tasks that have traditionally been undertaken by ships' crews raises interesting legal questions across the whole spectrum of maritime law.

Everything comes wrapped in a story, and the means employed to weave the narrative thread are just as important as the story itself. In this context, there is a need to understand the role storytelling plays in contemporary society, which has changed drastically in recent decades. Modern global society is no longer exclusively dominated by the time-tested narrative media such as literature or films because new media such as videogames or social platforms have changed the way we understand, create, and replicate stories.The handbook of research on contemporary storytelling methods across new media and disciplines is a comprehensive reference book that provides the relevant theoretical framework that concerns storytelling in modern society, as well as the newest and most varied analyses and case studies in the field. 9783030262631 3030262634-N�S�틇ef[-N�vё��'`+R�-NN�~Zfg�yORˆMaking The Difference%Schools, Families And Social Division:Rw Connell, Dean Ashenden, Sandra Kessler And Gary Dowsett First published in 1982, making the difference has become a classic in the study of education and of australian society. Hailed on publication as 'certainly the most interesting book written about australian schools in a very long time [and] arguably the most important', it has since been recognised as one of the 10 most influential works of australian sociology, 'not just a major argument, and a 'classic' point of reference, [but] an event, an intervention in ways of doing research and speaking to practice, a methodology, a textual style. It was designed to be read by a much wider audience than the standard sociological text, and it has succeeded'.Making the difference draws on a detailed study of the schools and homes of the powerful and the wealthy, and of ordinary wage-earners. It allows children, parents and teachers to speak for themselves and from what they say it develops strikingly new ways of understanding 'educational inequality', of how the class and gender systems work, and of schools and their social roles. 9780367675219 0367675218�l�_N�mqN�;NCg0�b��0llLaw And Disorder Sovereignty, Protest, AtmosphereIllan Rua WallsFocusing on the moment when social unrest takes hold of a populace, law and disorder offers a new account of sovereignty with an affective theory of public order and protest.;in a state of unrest, the affective architecture of the sovereign order begins to crumble. The everyday peace and calm of public space is shattered as sovereign peace is challenged. In response, the state unleashes the full force of its exceptionality, and the violence of public order policing is deployed to restore the affects and atmospheres of habitual social relations. This book is a work of contemporary critical legal theory. It develops an affective theory of sovereign orders by focusing on the government of affective life and popular encounters with sovereignty. The chapters explore public order as a key articulation between sovereignty and government. In particular, policing of public order is exposed as a contemporary mode of exceptionality cast in the fires of colonial subjection. The state of unrest helps us see the ordinary effects of the sovereign order, but it also points to crowds as the essential component in the production of unrest. 9781509543489 1509543481"��[�V�y���NN�[��YUO/e�Npe~vN�CQeg��υN�N�CQKThe Wealth Hoarders: How Billionaires Pay Millions To Hide Trillions​ Chuck CollinsFor decades, a secret army of tax attorneys, accountants and wealth managers has been developing into the shadowy wealth defence industry.

In this book, inequality expert chuck collins, who himself inherited a fortune, interviews the leading players and gives a unique insider account of how this industry is doing everything it can to create and entrench hereditary dynasties of wealth and power.

Louts and legends is a rich portrayal of their ways of life, their responses to school and teachers, and their experience of job-seeking, employment, unemployment, further education and training.Louts and legends presents a unique perspective on australian culture, showing the problems, achievements, and social context of four distinct cultural styles: the macho 'aussie' culture of the footballers; the competitive challenge of the greeks; the 'nice guy' friendliness of the handballers; the artistic aspirations of the stigmatised three friends.The interview and participant observation data gathered over a long period contains fresh insights on youth culture as well as moving individual stories. 9780367671808 0367671808 presidency�g�`��VN��V�N�v�b�qQ�TZQNl;NZQ�~�� 1840-2016)Envisioning America And The American Self4Republican And Democratic Party Platforms, 1840-2016Scott AppelrouthThis book explores the democratic and republican party platforms from 1840 to 2016. As the only official, institutionally sanctioned document espousing the parties views on the state of the nation, the platforms present to the party faithful a diagnosis of what ails the country and the promise of possessing the necessary cure. In doing so, they offer more than a listing of specific issues in need of redress through legislative action, and moreover serve as a form of national storytelling through which political parties forge their vision of america and of what it means to be an american. Using topic modeling as an entry point into the documents, the author moves to consider more closely two related themes: those of how the platforms narrate the "american" self and individual freedom. 9781138092044 9781799826002 1799826007�SU\�Sc�~�v�|ߘ�|�~0?eV{�T�O��=Developing Sustainable Food Systems, Policies, And SecuritiesAbiodun Elijah Obayelu7A food system is sustainable if it delivers food and nutrition security for all without compromising the economic, social, and environmental bases to generate food security and nutrition for future generations. Sustainable food systems are vital in ensuring global health and ending malnutrition in all its forms. Assessing important dimensions of the food system such as nutrition, sustainable agriculture, food loss and waste can provide stakeholders with necessary information to evaluate the strength of their country s food systems and determine where more support is needed.Developing sustainable food systems, policies, and securities is a pivotal reference source that explores the nature, extent, and causes of nutrition problems across the world as well as the role that agricultural policy plays in these issues. 9781799835356 1799835359CQ�s�N;NINN���Q���R�SS��etQxvzN:gG�HMetamodernism And Changing Literacy: Emerging Research And Opportunities7Advances In Library And Information Science (2326-4136)Valerie J.

Therefore, it is imperative that best strategies for teaching writing speakers of other languages is imparted to provide insights to teachers who can better prepare their students for future accomplishments.Futuristic and linguistic perspectives on teaching writing to second language students examines the theoretical and practical implications that should be put in place for second language writers and offers critical futuristic and linguistic perspectives on teaching writing to speakers of other languages. 9781799866046 1799866041KQ g>yO�yf[NؚI{Ye��xvz-N�[0W��g�vcbOOvercoming Fieldwork Challenges In Social Science And Higher Education ResearchAbir El Shaban�Conducting social science and education research studies that require involvement in fieldwork is not an easy task. Many graduate students and novice researchers face difficulties efficiently and effectively conducting the practical aspects of their research in fieldw< ork. One reason for this difficulty may be due to the lack of finding and/or accessing authentic and realistic descriptions of previously conducted fieldwork experiences and processes in a variety of fields. This could be the case whether the research is going to be on a virtual platform or in a real and actual context. Thus, it is critical to shed light on the successes and pitfalls of the personal experiences of fieldwork.Overcoming fieldwork challenges in social science and higher education research is an essential reference book that draws on the experience of conducting fieldwork in different contexts and world regions that are relevant to social science and education studies. 9780367734169 036773416819N�~�|^y�Tf[��|^y�Tf[�S ,{5wS,Philosophy Of Mind In The Nineteenth Century/The History Of The Philosophy Of Mind, Volume 5�Between the publication of kant s critique of pure reason in 1781 and husserl s ideas in 1913, the nineteenth century was a pivotal period in the philosophy of mind, witnessing the emergence of the phenomenological and analytical traditions;that continue to shape philosophical debate in fundamental ways.

Complex realism brings together a number of strands of thought, in scientific realism, complexity science, probability theory and social research methodology. It proposes that the reality of the social world is that it is probabilistic, yet there exists enough invariance to make the discovery and explanation of social objects and causal mechanisms possible. This forms the basis for the development of a complex realist foundation for social research, that utilises a number of new and novel approaches to investigation, alongside the more traditional corpus of quantitative and qualitative methods. Research examples are drawn from research in sociology, epidemiology, criminology, social policy and human geography. 9781138335554 SE-D0-0030 9780367718732 0367718731�ZSOsQ�|��NV{eu ,{2HrMedia RelationsIssues And Strategies Jane JohnstongPublic relations and the media are in a time of major change.

The book explores questions about what the first hamlet looked like in his mourning cloak; how costumes for a shakespeare comedy can reflect or critique the collective nostalgias a culture has for its past; how costume and casting work together to ask new questions about shakespeare and race. Using production case studies of hamlet, much ado about nothing, and the tempest, the book demonstrates that costume design can be a site of experimentation, playfulness, and transgression in the theatre  and that it can provoke audiences to think again about what power, race, and gender look like on the < shakespearean stage.

This book focuses on the role of the fashion consumer within environmental and social sustainability, exploring how small changes in attitudes and behaviour can be the start of significant transformation for the future of the industry. Through exploring the role of both consumers and brands, the book investigates how a collaborative approach can move the industry forward to a more sustainable future. Using the lens of the use phase of the product lifecycle, the discussion centres on three core areas: purchasing, use and disposal. The principles of consumer behaviour are positioned within a high-street fashion context, looking closely at the fluid nature of consumer attitudes and often fickle behaviour in their relationship with mass-market fashion products. 9780367457686 0367331632 9780367255879 0367255871�l�V�Nh`�v O�d���l�V�g�S��SvQq_�T 1918 1945France s Purveyors Of Hatred@Aspects Of The French Extreme Right And Its Influence, 1918 1945`This book examines the extreme right in france during the interwar period.It begins by describing the background of the french right before 1914 and then provides commentary and analysis of the broad range of the extra-parliamentary right in interwar france.

This book explores these conflicts of honor, how they are triggered, how they are handled, and why some lead to death.

The defense of christendom and the recovery of the holy land were widely-shared objectives. Thousands of men, and not a few women, participated in the crusades, including not only those who took the cross but many others who shared the costs and losses, as well as the triumphs of the crusaders. This volume contains not a narrative account of the crusades in the twelfth century, but a group of studies illustrating many aspects of crusading that are often passed over in narrative histories, including the courses and historiography of the crusades, their background, ideology, and finances, and how they were seen in europe. Included are revised and updated versions of giles constable's classic essays on medieval crusading, along with two major new studies on the cross of the crusaders and the fourth crusade, and two excursuses on the terminology of crusading and the numbering of the crusades.global governance 9780367732219 0367732211Q�~;e�QN�VE�O(ufk�R�l�l�T�Oo`&Ot7Cyber Attacks And International Law On The Use Of ForceThe Turn To Information EthicsSamuli HaatajamExamining the thematic intersection of law, technology and violence, this book explores cyber attacks against states and current international law on the use of force. The theory of information ethics is used to critique the law s conception of violence and to develop an informational approach as an alternative way to think about cyber attacks.Cyber attacks against states constitute a new form of violence in the information age, and international law on the use of force is limited in its capacity to regulate them. This book draws on luciano floridi s theory of information ethics to critique the narrow conception of violence embodied in the law and to develop an alternative way to think about cyber attacks, violence, and the state.<  The author uses three case studies; ;the 2007 cyber attacks against estonia, the stuxnet incident involving iran that was discovered in 2010, and the cyber attacks used as part of the russian interference in the 2016 us presidential election; to demonstrate that an informational approach offers a means to reimagine the state as an entity and cyber attacks as a form of violence against it. 9781138482708 9780367670627 0367670623housing and communities cCg)R0 c�����mIg�w�v?bK\_�SN?bK\����By-right, By-design8Housing Development Versus Housing Design In Los Angeles Liz Falletta�Housing is an essential, but complex, product, so complex that professionals involved in its production, namely, architects, real estate developers and urban planners, have difficulty agreeing on  good housing outcomes. Less-than-optimal solutions that have resulted from a too narrow focus on one discipline over others are familiar: high design that is costly to build that makes little contribution to the public realm, highly profitable but seemingly identical  cookie-cutter dwellings with no sense of place and well-planned neighborhoods full of generically designed, unmarketable product types.Differing roles, languages and criteria for success shape these perspectives, which, in turn, influence attitudes about housing regulation. Real estate developers, for example, prefer projects that can be built  as-of-right or  by-right, meaning that they can be approved quickly because they meet all current planning, zoning and building code requirements. Design-focused projects, heretofore  by-design, by contrast, often require time to challenge existing regulatory codes, pursuing discretionary modifications meant to maximize design innovation and development potential. 9780815385059 9780367729455 0367729458 hQtWS�e�vOO?b?eV{R�e-Housing Policy Innovation In The Global South[Housing problems have become increasingly complex in the global south. An increased pressure to upgrade older stock, to provide adequate infrastructure, and bring city amenities to urban peripheries compounds the continued need for new housing of a decent standard. This comprehensive volume spans nine countries, simultaneously analyzing innovative housing policies and questioning the idea of innovation in this arena. The authors describe three persistent, global challenges to contemporary policy: the inherent difficulty in mass-producing housing of decent quality with access to the city; the challenge of community-based upgrading programmes, which often fail to benefit those who are worst off; and the political root of housing policies, which don t always consider the diverse needs of populations at the expense of the least powerful.This volume raises questions about what many consider the two most successful areas of housing policy in the global south: the community-based land sharing programmes for redevelopment in south-east asia and the finance-driven social housing programmes in latin america. 9780367717339 0367717336b����bT20t^�v�o'Y)R�N�ef[A Question Of Commitment7Australian Literature In The Twenty Years After The War Susan Lever@In the years since the second world war, australia has seen a period of literary creativity which outshines any earlier period in the nation's literary history.

Pre-crisis ideas about laissez-faire regulation have been discarded in favour of more interventionist ones.

At the same time, jurisdictions have re-emphasized the need "to get their own regu< latory house in order" before committing to further global harmonization.

Since early christianity, wood, earth, water and stone were taken from loca sancta to signify them elsewhere. Academic discourse has indiscriminately grouped material tokens from holy places and their containers with architectural and topographical emulations, two-dimensional images and bodily relics. However, unlike textual or visual representations, natural materials do not describe or interpret the holy land; they are part of it. Tangible and timeless, they realize the meaning of their place of origin in new locations.What makes earth, stones or bottled water transported from holy sites sacred? how do they become pars pro toto, signifying the whole from which they were taken? this book will examine natural media used for translating loca sancta, the processes of their sanctification and how, although inherently abstract, they become charged with meaning. 9780367671655 0367671654�Tf[S�v�[݋/f�TzfgaYe���vS���(Wyb$R_`�~N�|^y�l`KN��;Philosophising The Dialogos Way Towards Wisdom In Education5Between Critical Thinking And Spiritual ContemplationGuro Hansen HelskogtPhilosophising the dialogos way towards wisdom in education proposes the innovative and holistic dialogos approach to practica< l philosophy as a way of facilitating wisdom-oriented pedagogy.

This book reads koj�ve again; as a thinker of time, not its end. It presents koj�ve as a philosopher and precisely as a time phenomenologist, rather than as a new age guru. The book shows how koj�ve s time is inherently political, and indeed tyrannical, for being about his understanding of human relation. However,;koj�ve s views on time and tyranny prove his undoing for making rule impossible because of; what the book terms the "time-tyrant problem." koj�ve s entire political corpus is best understood as an attempt to rectify this problem. 9780367734053 0367734052#��N�_�N0Wt�T�qQY�v�l�_N�ltResponsability1Law And Governance For Living Well With The EarthhResponsability challenges conventional thinking about our governance and legal frameworks. The cross-currents of persisting, established worldviews, knowledge systems, institutions, law and forms of governance are now at odds with future-facing innovations designed to help societies transition to both low-carbon economies and social equity. This book explores the ways in which we can move to new governance and legal structures that more effectively reflect our changed relationship with the earth in the anthropocene.The book is written by a group of eminent scholars and leading experts;from a diverse range of backgrounds, all of whom bring new knowledge and analysis from across oceanic and continental regions. Many are from the discipline of law, whilst others bring expertise on indigenous knowledge, climate, water, governance and philosophy to engage with law. 9780367736866 0367736861literature by geographic areab` Y6��k 1660-1674Restoration Staging, 1660-74 Tim Keenan�Restoration staging 1660 74 cuts through prevalent ideas of restoration theatre and drama to read early plays in their original theatrical contexts.Tim keenan argues that restoration play texts contain far more information about their own performance than previously imagined. Focusing on specific productions and physical staging at the three theatres operating in the first years of the restoration  vere street, bridges street and lincoln s inn fields  keenan analyses stage directions, scene headings and other performance clues embedded in the play-texts themselves.

This comprehensive volume explores the ways in which social media is used on the one hand as a campaigning tool, and on the other, by local citizens. It aims to develop a more holistic and eurocentric research agenda by capturing both supply and demand practices at the european level. The authors employ both single and multination case studies, furthering debates on how political actors and voters embrace the new information and communication environment, in what ways, and for what purposes. The book offers new perspectives on social media campaigning within european democracies, thereby contributing to a more global and comprehensive understanding of how campaigning is affected, and might be enhanced, by developing an interactive digital strategy. 9780367185664 9780367728649 0367728648�b�k�r*YYe-N�vHa�U�N�j0VYO�NlQINCharity In Rabbinic Judaism%Atonement, Rewards, And RighteousnessAlyssa M. GrayRStudying the many ideas about how giving charity atones for sin and other rewards in late antique rabbinic literature, this volume contains many, varied, and even conflicting ideas, as the multiplicity must be recognized and allowed expression. Topics include the significance of the rabbis use of the biblical word "tzedaqah" as charity, the coexistence of the idea that god is the ultimate recipient of tzedaqah along with rabbinic ambivalence about that idea, redemptive almsgiving, and the reward for charity of retention or increase in wealth. Rabbinic literature s preference for "teshuvah" (repentance) over tzedeqah to atone for sin is also closely examined. Throughout, close attention is paid to chronological differences in these ideas, and to differences between the rabbinic compilations of the land of israel and the babylonian talmud. 9780367729882 0367729881hQ>yO�v�^���Ts^Whole-of-society Peacebuilding4The complex problems of peace, security, and development in societies affected by conflict increasingly demand innovative ideas, and comprehensive strategies to tackle the diverse, simultaneous, and daunting challenges faced in trying to rebuild states and communities after war. This comprehensive collection sets out a  whole-of-society (wos) approach which focuses on the social contexts within which conflict resolution and prevention take place. The aim of wos is to grasp the complexity both within local society and in the relations between external peacebuilders and the people they set out to help. The book argues that, by understanding multiple actors, their relationships, and the conditions in which they operate, complexity becomes an opportunity to be grasped, not simply an impediment to building peace. 9780367729127 0367729121�[ȏKQ\���<\��vyb$RU\g�IQf�v*geg0ў�f�vǏ�S)Critical Perspectives On Michael FinnissyBright Futures, Dark Pasts4The composer and pianist michael finnissy (b. 1946) is an unmistakeable presence in the british and international new music scene, both for his immeasurable generosity as prolific composer for many different types of musicians, major advocate for the works of others, and performer and conductor who has also been a driving force behind ensembles; he was also president of the international society for contemporary music from 1990 to 1996. His vast and enormously varied output confounds those who seek easy categorisations: once associated strongly with the  new complexity , finnissy is equally known as composer regularly engaged with many different folk musics, for working with amateur and community musicians, for a long-term engagement with sacred music, or as an advocate of anglo-american  experimental music. 9780367729059 0367729059��V�[�YsY�v�~�_�(WlQqQ:WT`sY'`/The Commemoration Of Women In The United States!Remembering Women In Public SpaceTeresa Bergman�The commemoration of women in the united states examines the public memorialization of women in the us over the past century, with a particular focus on the late twentieth century and early twenty first.

It offers an intensive analysis of the banking crises under the conditions of colonial capitalism in early twentieth-century bengal that led to institutional and social collapse. Breaking new ground, the;book looks at the moral economy of capitalism and money culture by focusing on the victims of banking crises, hitherto unexplored in western empirical research. Through sociological analyses of political economy, it seamlessly combines archival records, survey and statistical data with literary narratives, realist fiction and performing arts to recount how the greed of bank owners and managers ruined their institutions as well as common people. It argues that greed turns perilous when the state and the market facilitate its agency, and it examines the contexts and histories, the indifference of the fledgling colonial state, feeble political response, and the consequences for those who were impacted and the losses, especially the refugees, the lower-middle class and women. 9780815386728 9780367732004 0367732009Ilυ��|����[Ilf[��f[�v!�.sThe Sinitic Languages)A Contribution To Sinological LinguisticsMieczys?aw Jerzy K�nstler The sinitic languages is the quintessence of mieczyslaw jerzy k�nstler s thirty years of research into the chinese languages. Originally published in polish in 2000 as jezyki chinskie, this work collected k�nstler s various lectures on the fascinating world of this branch of the sino-tibetan language family. It marked the apogee of linguistic research of chinese languages in poland. With a keen, intuitive understanding of the workings of these languages, k�nstler introduces his readership to the historical development of spoken sinitic languages. Besides analyzing the various stages of standard chinese, he also makes a convincing case for classifying cantonese, pekinese, nankinese, minnanese, wu, and other so-called "dialects" as distinct languages. K�nstler s work offers an insightful and detailed overview about synchronic and diachronic research on the major language groups of chinese, a fast growing academic field until today.The present english version was begun by k�nstler himself before his untimely demise in 2007. 9780367671433 0367671433�m9��0��N�Rir�N�T�?eV{0�lĉN^:W%��#Consumers, Meat And Animal Products#Policies, Regulations And MarketingTerence J.

Food animal production practices have come under increased scrutiny by consumers who object to inputs and practices. The industry has been a proponent of using technologies to reduce production costs, resulting in lower-priced meat and animal food products, and now consumers are starting to look at other objectives. This book considers the key issues of concern to consumers, including the treatment of animals, the use of antibiotics, feed additives and hormones, and how these are monitored, regulated, and communicated to consumers. It also reviews labeling and information provided to consumers, including organic, genetic engineering, welfare standards, and place of origin. 9780367695248 0367695243 NgIQ�KNT�v�e�RaWSingapore After Lee Kuan Yew,Routledge Contemporary Southeast Asia SeriesS.

The author reads works by salman rushdie, shashi tharoor, nayantara sahgal and rohinton mistry in conjunction with government white papers, political speeches, memoirs, biographies and history. The book explores the betrayal of the nehruvian idea of india and democracy by indira gandhi and analyses the political and cultural amnesia among the general populace in the decades following the emergency.At a time when debates around freedom of speech and expression have become critical to literary and political discourses, this book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of english literature, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, media studies, political studies, sociology, history and for general readers as well. 9781138312982 9780367730031 0367730030S�~0'`+RN�Q�N��nꁅQ萄v�YsY�~�~Nato, Gender And The MilitaryWomen Organising From Within;Katharine Wright, Matthew Hurley And Jesus Ignacio Gil Ruiz�This book examines nato's engagement with gender issues through its military structures.Drawing on newly declassified nato documents, this volume provides the first comprehensive account of nato s long-established engagement with gender issues. These documents bring to the fore the stories of the nato women and  gendermen who have organised within nato across the decades to advocate on gender issues and highlights the continued challenges to pursuing transformative agendas within resistant institutions. The book argues that nato is an institution of international hegemonic masculinity, with gender norms and values learned by member and partner states through socialisation and the engagement of a masculinist protection logic. It therefore provides an important context for nato s recent implementation of the women, peace and security agenda encapsulated in un security council resolution 1325 and the seven follow-up resolutions. 9780367737870 0367737876 �|�~'`Θi�N�Oi��v�{�v*geg4Systemic Risk And The Future Of Insurance Regulation�This book examines policy developments that have been occurring in the field of financial regulation and their implications for the insurance industry and markets.

The collection assembles insights from around africa to bring african and non-african scholars into the world of music, education, policy, and assessment as played out across the continent. The music of africa presents multiple avenues for the understanding of the reality of life from a cultural perspective. The teaching and learning of this music closely follows its practice, the latter involving a combination of artistic expressions. With international interest in world music, there is need to engage with concepts and processes of this music.

Korean adoptees and transnational adoption is based on ethnographic fieldwork in south korea and interviews with adult korean adoptees from the united states, australia, canada, switzerland and sweden. It seeks to probe beneath the surface of what is "known" and examines identity as an embodied process of making that which is "unknown" into something that can be meaningfully grasped and felt. Furthermore, drawing on the author s own experiences as a transnational, transracial korean adoptee, this book analyses the racial and cultural negotiations of "whiteness" and "korean-ness" in the lives of adoptees and the blurriness which results in-between. 9780815354628 9780367728755 0367728753l��>yO(W-NN�SS^��v�Rϑ��^���Ts^0�Si�N�SU\>The Power Of Civil Society In The Middle East And North Africa'Peace-building, Change, And Development�This book investigates the power of civil society in the middle east and north africa (mena), in the context of the post-arab spring era, as well as more long-standing challenges and constraints in the region. In recent years, local civil society actors have faced significant challenges from social conservatism, conflict, violence, and the absence of democracy and exclusive political systems.

Relations between latin america and europe have been interpreted generally in the social sciences as synonyms of interstate relations. However, although states remain the most important actor in the geopolitical scene, they have been deeply reconfigured in recent decades, impacted by transnational dynamics, politics and spaces. This book highlights interregional relations and transnational dynamics between latin america and europe from a critical geopolitics perspective, promoting a new look for interregional relations which encompasses international cooperation and development, global policies, borders, inequalities and social movements. 9780367732806 0367732807S��_?e�l-N�v�c�~Fh�g��W�N틙e�^�v�[��xvz#Pictorial Framing In Moral Politics!A Corpus-based Experimental StudyAhmed Abdel-raheem>This book seeks to extend research on framing beyond linguistic and cognitive perspectives by examining framing in visual and multimodal texts and their impact on moral cognition and attitudes. Drawing on perspectives from frame semantics, blending theory, relevance theory, and pragmatics, the volume establishes a model of "pictorial framing", arguing that subtle alterations in the visual presentation of issues around judgment and choice in such texts impact perception, and applies this framework to a range of case studies from egyptian, british, and american cartoons and illustrations. The book demonstrates the affordances of applying this framework in enhancing our understanding of both the nature of word-image relations and issues of representation in the op-ed genre, but also in other forms of media more generally. 9781138351769 9780367349653 0367349655social justiceT�N{|-N�_;NIN�v>yO�]\O�yb$R�vT�N{|N�e/Uir;NINU\g Post-anthropocentric Social Work3Critical Posthuman And New Materialist Perspectives!Routledge Advances In Social Work>This book seeks to trouble taken-for-granted assumptions of anthropocentrism and humanism in social work - that which perpetuates human privilege and human exceptionalism. The edited collection provides a different imaginary for social work by introducing ways of thinking otherwise, which challenge human exceptionalism. Social work is at heart a liberal humanist project informed by a strong human rights framework. This edited collection draws on the literature on affect, feminist new materialism and critical posthumanism to critique the liberal framework, which includes human rights. Disrupting anthropocentrism in social work which positions humans as an elite species at the centre of world history, this book develops an ethical sensibility that values entanglements of human, non-human life and the nat< ural environment.

Each contribution uses round 3 of the religion and state dataset which includes information on 117 distinct state religion policies. Secular and religious forces in society and government compete in order to influence state religion policy in a vibrant religious economy. While governments are more involved in religion in 2014 than they were in 1990, most states both added and dropped religion policies during this period. This is important because these policies impact on a number of important political, social, and economic phenomena. In this collection the authors examine the impact of state religion policies on interstate militarized disputes, violent domestic conflict, terrorism, and voting for political parties. 9780367731168 0367731169SO��N�|^ySport And Spirituality3This comprehensive volume explores the interface between sport and religion, or more broadly, sport and spirituality. While most of the contributions come from western and christian traditions, the volume raises broader questions about the kinds of impact that spirituality can and should have on sport, and equally, that sport can and should have on spirituality. The authors put forth an anti-dualistic message, one that argues against any vision of sport and religion existing in separate domains. Mind interpenetrates body, faith and love interpenetrate competition, spirituality and the divine can interpenetrate secular games. This positive book has powerful implications for reforming contemporary sport, particularly crass, extrinsically-driven, win-at-all-cost versions of competition. It is a book about the incarnation, the paradoxical existence of the spirit in the flesh, love in competition, the myth-making power and meaning of games to engage the world, transcendent hope found in kicking a ball around, and how sport as a liturgy can mediate divine presence. 9780367730444 0367730448�N2mR�t^�v�s�[N?ag�Ye��0�W��01\N)Realities And Aspirations For Asian YouthEducation, Training, Employment�This comprehensive volume explores the remarkable expansion of higher education systems and institutions in asia in recent decades, alongside changing forms of consumerism, mobility and global economic conditions.

This trend is particularly apparent in french speaking countries where a seminal tradition of ergonomics, born in the middle of the 20th century, produced studies about work and workers activity in various contexts. Results demonstrate that working activity, firstly, is always complex, creative and enigmatic despite the efforts done by the designers to create prescribing working environments and by managers to control production procedures, and secondly, cannot be understood without specific field studies about real work. This approach influenced adult educational researchers and trainers to develop programs in order to help trainers to better know human activity and its transformations in various social practices (and not only in working context). It also helps them to design learning environments accompanying human activity transformations at various time scales. 9780367671259 0367671255�N�O�N0R�S�OV�From Trust To TrustworthinessyTrust is an essential component of social life and yet political polarization and social tensions can easily lead to its erosion. The articles collected in this volume throw a new light on the fundamentals of trust and trustworthiness and thus help us understand better the conditions and the limits of trust. The book brings together some of the best recent thinking on trust from across a broad spectrum of approaches and concerns. The essays range from the more abstract discussions of the conditions and nature of trust, to its application to our social and political lives in general, alongside more subject specific approaches such as trust in the media. Trust is a thick concept with both epistemic and normative content and significance, and several chapters engage with the ethical features of trust in distinct ways and also show the central role of trust in our decision-making. 9780367183103 9780367728502 0367728508 W3�vQ�YsY�v�~NmCg��&Women's Economic Empowerment In TurkeygTurkey has experienced growth in both the population and the workforce. However, female participation in the workforce in turkey is extremely low, largely due to financial dependency and lack of higher education. The authors argue that greater research is needed to improve the economic position of women throughout the country, and this remains a challenge that must be fixed both culturally and socioeconomically.The book explores the significant gap between policy advancements, actual practices, and the impact of regional variety in the cultural structure. The authors suggest that this in turn has affected turkey s ability to implement changes and reform. Reform must allow women to pursue changes that will give them greater financial flexibility and freedom within the country. The authors demonstrate the concept and framework for women s empowerment and explore the need for this. This book seeks to discuss the approaches and strategies for empowering women by outlining the strategies, policies and tools that women are using for their empowerment focusing on turkey while comparing with other countries worldwide. 9780367717353 0367717352�o'Y)R�NWW�kSuN�N{| g�R�]\Ot���ޏ�cWW��wƋN�[��@A Theory For Indigenous Australian Health And Human Service Work,Connecting Indigenous Knowledge And PracticeLorraine Muller"Winner of the 2015 educational publishing awards australia - scholarly resourcemost people of european background are not aware that they see the world through the lens of the western tradition, but for indigenous people, it can seem like a foreign language.Indigenous ways of thinking and working are grounded in many thousands of years of oral tradition, and continue among australian aboriginal and torres strait island people today.

It plays a significant role in relation to many real-life complaints about unjust treatment or unjust inequalities, and it raises a number of questions in political and moral philosophy, and in legal theory. Some of these questions include: what distinguishes the concept of discrimination from the concept of differential treatment? what distinguishes direct from indirect discrimination? is discrimination always morally wrong? what makes discrimination wrong? how should we eliminate the effects of discrimination? by covering a wide range of topics, and by doing so in a way that does not assume prior acquaintance, this handbook enables the reader to get to grips with the omnipresent issue. 9780367737214 0367737213 g�^�VR_!j�W�v^L�0�RN^�v^L��f�NOrdered Regression Models0Parallel, Partial, And Non-parallel AlternativesAndrew S.

The book provides comprehensive coverage of the three major classes of ordered regression models (cumulative, stage, and adjacent) as well as variations based on the application of the parallel regression assumption.The authors first introduce the three "parallel" ordered regression models before covering unconstrained partial, constrained partial, and nonparallel models. They then review existing tests for the parallel regression assumption, propose new variations of several tests, and discuss important practical concerns related to tests of the parallel regression assumption. The book also describes extensions of ordered regression models, including heterogeneous choice models, multilevel ordered models, and the bayesian approach to ordered regression models.

The concept of entrepreneurship, and research in the field, is becoming institutionalized, increasingly oriented by influential trends, theories and methods, following the mainstream and being shaped accordingly.The objective of this book is to move beyond mainstream approaches and assumptions which are dominating the field, and to raise questions about the nature and process of entrepreneurship research. Over twelve chapters, leading international thinkers in the field debate the impact and the consequences of institutionalization. Taking key research orientations including multidisciplinarity, international entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurship, and ethics, it takes a critical and constructive and sometimes controversial posture and encourages a re-examination of the way we look at the social and economic phenomenon of entrepreneurship. 9781799856276 1799856275hQt�vhq��R�WlQ�S�v�VE�FUNN!j_xvzKb�Q]Handbook Of Research On International Business And Models For Global Purpose-driven CompaniesRafael Ignacio Perez-uribe`International businesses struggle to be competitive and influential at the global market level.

The book sets out the theoretical reference paradigm with respect to the culture and practice of state denial often associated with torture, and uses this model to excavate the buried aspects of this most famous of torture cases. 9780367671778 0367671778higher education management��VؚI{Ye���v9_'`t���ؚ!h�YUO��^ N�e�SS�v>yO�~Nm�r�Q6Theorizing The Resilience Of American Higher EducationNHow Colleges And Universities Adapt To Changing Social And Economic ConditionsGeoffrey M.

It argues that the demands for new educational missions, new sources of capital to finance innovation, and new organizational and governance models lead to the creation of institutional diversity. Using the theory of  accretive change to predict future changes, this volume asserts that the rise of artificial intelligence and new investment models within the field of social entrepreneurship will shape the next wave of universities and educational institutions. 9780367226992 9780367735647 0367735644�m�n�l�p��RN�e�v'`+R0`�eNR�t^�m9�Grease>Gender, Nostalgia And Youth Consumption In The Blockbuster EraBarbara Jane BrickmanThis book offers the first in-depth look at the history, social context, and industrial practices behind this teen musical phenomenon to suggest that social change, especially in terms of gender and sexuality, comes to the surface despite the film s retro setting, blockbuster business model, and apparent nostalgic tone.

The book satisfies the need to go beyond the consideration of the success or failure of international policies. It sheds light on complex interactions involving multiple actors, individual and institutional, driven by various representations, interests, and strategies, and which often result in unintended consequences that powerfully affect the socio-political context in which they unfold. By providing a new conceptual framework to understand how interregionalism brings about social change, the book examines the effects on the individual and institutional actors of interregional rel< ations, and the effects on the social structures that constitute interregionalism. 9780367554842 SE-D8-0185 9780367331702 0367331705Ye�����[�beugR,g��StNǏ z-The Strategy Playbook For Educational LeadersPrinciples And Processes%Isobel Stevenson And Jennie M.

It also looks to the future, offering cautious predictions about developments in the field in the years to come.Following an introduction by amy kind, twelve specially commissioned chapters by an international team of contributors discuss key topics, thinkers, and debates, including:the phenomenological tradition,the mind body problem,theories of consciousness,theories of perception,theories of personal identity,mental causation,intentionality,wittgenstein and his legacy,cognitive science, andfuture directions for philosophy of mind. 9780367737900 0367737906�NyO�~�^3The Human And Social Dimension Of Urban LightscapesPolimi SpringerbriefsDaria Casciani�This book explores new criteria and characteristics for integrating human psychology in the design of modern urban lighting. It identifies a new area of lighting design research and practice that focuses on the nocturnal urban e< xperience in terms of people s emotional, cognitive and motivational perceptions to achieve more accessible, sociable and sustainable cities. In turn, the book compares new tools and research methodologies for tackling complex issues concerning the ties between lighting, people and the city. Moreover, it presents a series of case studies to provide an in-depth understanding of the influence of urban lighting in terms of luminous atmosphere perception, positive social affect, social enhancement, accessibility and hospitability. Lastly, the book proposes a multidisciplinary qualitative and quantitative methodology for assessing the spatial experience of outdoor lighting.

A hotly debated and malleable term, its wide circulation has allowed for afropolitanism to become a contested space for critical inquiry. The contributions to this book are representative of the lively discussions that afropolitan aesthetics, identity politics and afro(cosmo)politanisms have sparked in recent years. The book aims to continue the debates around these concepts foregrounded by earlier works in the fields of postcolonial literature, african cultural studies, and studies of diaspora and transnationalism.

The contributions to the book explore three key concerns: projects which document the history of women s political activism; the digitising of primary document archives by women; and the impact of digitisation on historical research about women. In addition, the book sheds light on the way in which historians and literary scholars fuse digital sources with traditional forms such as books and journal articles to imagine different and ground-breaking histories of women s experience.With the field of feminist history and its relationship to the digital world in a dynamic position, the contributions to this volume can be read as signposts for future research in the field, posing questions for scholars and readers to explore in more detail. 9780367216207 0367216205 'Y`\@gKNT�v��e>yO#Western Society After The HolocaustLyman H.

Countries, cities and regions are ever increasingly voicing the desire for independence and balkanization from the nation or union they are a part of. This monograph generally maps the historical and theoretical emergence of balkanization, as well its more recent spread into fields as far ranging as law, medicine, data and security studies, sociology, architecture and the urban. T< he spatialization of balkanization is particularly addressed in terms of destruction and renewal through a detailed sociopolitical interrogation of architecture and the urban, including their changing symbolic, ideological and functional forms. The spatial connections between balkanization, violent remaking (destruction and renewal) and global politics have predominantly been analyzed via the former yugoslav context and the balkans, however, spotlight has also been directed to the current political climate of the uk, australia and the anglo-saxon geopolitics. 9781138061835 9780367728960 0367728966|^?Q�`a�~�S&Young Children's Emotional Experiences�Based on a rich seam of research evidence, this book leverages value in engaging with scientific enquiry to further understanding of young children s emotional experiences.Early childhood development has featured increasingly prominently on international policymakers agenda in recent years. Yet whilst policy foregrounds economic imperatives including academic attainment, school readiness, and time-bound outcomes, similar attention has not been afforded to the potential value of nourishing affective engagements that may secure  emotional capital for infants and young children. This collection from the field of early childhood is therefore timely. Its chapters are based on empirical evidence derived from contemporary scientific studies, and address challenges and opportunities inherent in young children s emotional experiences in diverse twenty-first century early childhood education and care contexts. 9780367671679 0367671670V{U\cb�S_�NV{U\�v�f[�yU\gCuratorial Challenges7Interdisciplinary Perspectives On Contemporary Curating�Curatorial challenges investigates the challenges faced by curators in contemporary society and explores which practices, ways of thinking, and types of knowledge production curating exhibitions could challenge. Bringing together international curators and researchers from the fields of art and cultural history, the book provides new research and perspectives on the curatorial process and aims to bridge the traditional gap between theoretical and academic museum studies and museum practices.The book focuses on exhibitions as a primary site of cultural exchange and argues that, as highly visible showcases, producers of knowledge, and historically embedded events, exhibitions establish and organize meanings of art and cultural heritage. Temporary exhibitions continue to increase in cultural significance and yet the traditional role of the museum as a bildung institution has changed. As exhibitions gain in significance, so too do curatorial strategies. Arguing that new research is needed to help understand these changes, the book presents original research that explores how curatorial strategies inform both art and cultural history museums in contemporary society. 9780815370062 9780367731908 0367731908�eSu�NN��V�ef[�S5uq_-N�v�YsY�]\O?e�lTCultural Production And The Politics Of Women s Work In American Literature And Film Polina Kroik:Cultural production and the politics of women s work in american literature and film emphasizes the interrelation among women s workplace roles, modes of authorship, and processes of subject-formation, pointing to some of the reasons for the persistence of limiting gender roles and occupational hierarchies that arose during the first 60 years of the 20th century.The book interrogates three common narratives: the rise of fordism as a "masculine" mode of production and the transition to an era of "feminized" work; women s liberation through the sexual revolutions; and the rise of a new form of literary authorship. Conversely, it suggests that women s labor was integral to the operations of the fordist business sphere, where, unlike at the factory, the white-collar office proletarian work was casualized and feminized. 9781138327269 9781799858850 1799858855lQqQ���~�~T\Ou�Nl�T�vǏ z�ƉPProcessual Perspectives On The Co-production Turn In Public Sector OrganizationsAnja Overgaard ThomassenFExisting research understands co-production as leading to shifts in roles of the public sector institutions and their staffs. The shift is seen in the way that a discursive use of the term service provision with embedded logics encompassing fiscal accountability, performance measurement, efficiency, and process regulation has changed towards discourses that embrace collaboration between the public sector front staff and the citizens, with the aim of developing legitimate and effective welfare services that are co-produced by means of active participation and distributed decision making. However, this change requires new approaches to the way in which the implementation of new practices and tools is executed in practice as studied and researched, and how the new practices and tools are understood and evaluated in organizations. 9780367728403 0367728400music & education�bU\�PNsStQYef[�vzz����f[�y�e�l7Expanding The Space For Improvisation Pedagogy In MusicA Transdisciplinary Approach�Expanding the space for improvisation pedagogy in music is a critical, research-based anthology exploring improvisation in music pedagogy.

Covering thinkers ranging from jefferson to rawls, du bois to audre lorde, he examines the ambiguities of the purportedly 'consensus' american principles of liberty, equality, and democracy as well as addressing questions ranging from 'what are the foundations of a legitimate political order?' and 'what is the appropriate role of government?' to 'what are the appropriate terms of full civic membership ?' - and beyond. 9781509530328 9780367733940 0367733943�VE�Ddq_�e��N��eSu�NN�e���VGr�v6R\ON�.U*The International Photojournalism Industry?Cultural Production And The Making And Selling Of News Pictures Jonathan IlanZHow are events turned into news pictures that define them for the audience? how do events become commodified into pictures that both capture them and reiterate the values of the agencies that sell them? this book looks at every stage of the production of news photographs as they move to and from the ground and are sold around the world.

It discusses what motivates moral behavior at the individual and the collective levels, how morality is engrained in markets and how it is deployed in business processes and stakeholder relations. The book shows that human centered management is built and consolidated in four complementary dimensions: ethical, social, economic and institutional. It emphasizes that moral managers and moral markets are essential for business sustainability.Rethinking leadership covers ethics development from its origin to help managers understand and confront the 21st century's increasing challenges and disruptions. 9780367731236 0367731231Ye���v�k��0ϑSNNNS�e�[���ۏL��W�N�~���vxvzFNew Practices Of Comparison, Quantification And Expertise In Education%Conducting Empirically Based Research�New practices of comparison, quantification and expertise in education discusses contemporary trends and activities related to comparisons and quantifications.

Interest in restorative justice is rapidly expanding, with new applications continuously emerging around the world. The restorative philosophy and conference process have shown great promise in providing a justice response that heals individuals and strengthens community. Still, a few key questions remain unanswered. First, how is the personal and relational transformation apparent in the restorative justice process achieved? what can be done to safeguard and enhance that effectiveness? second, can restorative justice satisfy the wider public s need for a reaffirmation of communal norms following a crime, particularly in comparison to the criminal trial? and finally, given its primary focus on making amends at an interpersonal level, does restorative justice routinely fail to address larger, structural injustices? this book engages with these three critical questions through an understanding of restorative justice as a ritual. 9780367728137 0367728133 Θi��l�N>y:S�^�S���R+Risk Communication And Community Resilience:Risk communication is crucial to building community resilience and reducing risk from extreme events.True community resilience involves accurate and timely dissemination of risk information to stakeholders.

Accounting, innovation and inter-organisational relationships gathers leading researchers from all around the world to argue for the importance of more systematic knowledge about accounting, innovation and inter-organisational relationships. Accounting, innovation and inter-organisational relationships thus becomes an important source for researchers and practitioners interested in accounting and inter-organisational relationships as well as the related disciplines of management, marketing, innovation and strategy. 9780367719708 0367719703Yef[�yf[�vz�/g�-Nf[�yf[Yef[�~TcWS ,{3HrThe Art Of Teaching ScienceAA Comprehensive Guide To The Teaching Of Secondary School Science_The art of teaching science has proven itself to be one of the most popular introductory texts for australian pre-service and in-service teachers, providing guidance on engaging students and helping develop scientifically literate citizens.

To accomplish this objective, it is of utmost relevance to promote the active involvement of all stakeholders of the tourism system (demand, supply, government entities, and educational institutions) in the creation of accessible and adapted tourism products. However, the scarce literature in this area suggests that the people working in the tourism industry are not usually aware of several needs and travel constraints of persons with disabilities and that the information delivered by traditional information sources to this market is frequently inadequate, inaccurate, or incomplete. 9781799864295 1799864294 9780367731830 0367731835Џ��T T�Y_T�ЏNUS_�v�{The Contract Of Carriage,Multimodal Transport And Unimodal Regulation Paula B�ckd�n�The contract of carriage: multimodal transport and unimodal regulation provides a new perspective on how to approach the question of multimodal transport regulation;regarding liability for goods carried. Unlike previous literature, which has approached the issue of applicability from a strict interpretation-of-the-convention angle, this book will analyse the issue from a law of contracts perspective.If goods are damaged during international transport, the carrier s liability is governed by rules laid down in international conventions, such as the cmr convention, the hague visby rules and the montreal convention. Such rules apply to certain modes of transport,;to contracts for unimodal carriage.

It centres on a young aleman aristocrat and his conversion to judaism in 838, followed by his flight to the muslim world of al-andalus. His apostasy constitutes an arresting footnote in the history of the carolingian period, his change of faith viewed as a shocking episode attributed by some to an overly lax policy towards judaism and its powerful merchants. Another factor could be ascribed to the study of judaism and its links with christianity, which was a feature of the time.Bodo moved from a monastery on the rhine, where he went as a small boy, to the imperial court, where he was;now a gifted young scholar groomed for a top position. His unexpected abandonment of christianity challenged his background and learning, and this was seen as a rebuke of the court network to which he belonged. Bodo left behind a gro< wing conflict over succession between the emperor, louis the pious, and his sons that culminated in a civil war following the emperor s death.

The studies are based on comparative interview studies with journalists and politicians, a large-scale comparative content analysis, and a comparative cross-country experiment using nationally representative online-surveys over 15 countries. The book also includes advice for stakeholders like politicians, the media, and citizens about how to deal with the challenge of populist political communication. This enlightening volume is  populist in the best sense and will be an essential text for any scholar in political science, communication science, media studies, sociology and philosophy with an interest in populism and political communication. 9781138392724 9783030230555 3030230554economic growthT�_S�['`�X�N�SU\0o�}Y�]\ON�Sc�~'`KYearning For Inclusive Growth And Development, Good Jobs And SustainabilityLuigi Paganetto"This book addresses topics and issues of high relevance to the widely shared desire to promote inclusive growth, sustainability, and innovation within a context of global governance. It is based on the xxxth villa mondragone international economic seminar, where leading experts met to discuss the latest research and thinking on different aspects of globalization, trade, inequalities, growth imbalances, green technologies, the labor market, and financial systems. The aim is to stimulate new responses and possible solutions to a variety of well-recognized problems, including low growth in real wages, stagnating productivity, and growing disparities in income. Some of these problems are especially evident in europe, where austerity policies have failed to deliver adequate growth and investment. 9780367732493 0367732491 %m�]^�\�-N�v g�N���rj-Contested Criminalities In Zimbabwean FictionTendai Mangena�This book addresses the ways in which writers deploy the trope of contested criminality to expose;zimbabwe's socially and politically oppressive cultures in a wide range of novels and short stories;published in english between 1994 and 2016. Some of the most influential authors that are examined in this book are yvonne vera, petina gappah, noviolet bulawayo, brian chikwava, christopher mlalazi, tendai huchu and virginia phiri. The author uses the zimbabwean experience to engage with critical issues facing the african continent and the world, providing a thoughtful reading of contemporary debates on illegal migration, homophobia, state criminality and gender inequalities. The thematic focus of the book represents a departure from what schulze-engler notes elsewhere as postcolonial discourse s habit of suggesting that the legacies of colonialism and the predominance of the  global north are responsible for injustice in the global south. 9781138338098 9780367730970 0367730979�S�|�~?eZQ��N��O�z4x0R?e�^Anti-system Parties-From Parliamentary Breakthrough To GovernmentMattia ZulianelloqThis book adopts an innovative conceptualization and analytical framework to the study of anti-system parties, and represents the first monograph ever published on the topic. 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. 9781138346796 9780367733001 0367733005pS�^�萄vW0Wl��W��~Nm6e�vN>yOb,g(Agrarian Transformation In Western IndiaEconomic Gains And Social Costs B.

The author extends his analysis of contract law, property law, agency law, trust law, and corporate statutory law and applies that analysis to defy conventional concepts and theories in economics, finance, investment, and accounting and expose the artificial boundaries established by decades of research founded on indefensible assumptions and fallacious conclusions.Using the humpty dumpty principle, where words mean what the authors want them to mean, economists have created "strange new worlds" where contract law, property law, agency law, and corporate statutory law no longer apply.The author dismantles the theory of the �rm by proving the theory of the firm wilfully and intentionally ignores fundamental contract law, property law, agency law, and corporate statutory law. Contrary to the theory of the firm, shareholders do not own corporations, directors are not agents of shareholders, and shareholders are not investors in corporations. 9780367895563 SE-D9-0142 9780367734596 0367734591hQt�vu0W��k��?e�l�Tf[���eƖThe Global Gandhi*Essays In Comparative Political PhilosophyRamin Jahanbegloo�This book is a comparative study of gandhi s philosophy and analyzes his relevance to modern political thought.

It shows how schools became the battleground for the state and the maoists as well as captures emerging trends in the field, challenges for the state and negotiations with political commitments. It looks at the factors that contributed to the conflict, and studies the politics of the region alongside gender and identity dynamics. One of the first studies on the subject, the book highlights how conflict and education are intrinsically linked in nepal. It illustrates how schools became the centre of attention between warring groups and how they were used for political meetings and recruitment of fighters during the political transitions in a contested terrain in south asia. It brings to the fore incidents of abduction and killing of teachers and students, and the use of children as porters for arms and ammunitions. 9780367671556 0367671557eastern european politics͑�e`�-N'kNN'k�vl;NP�ARethinking 'democratic Backsliding' In Central And Eastern Europe�This book seeks to inject fresh thinking into the debate on democratic deterioration in central and eastern europe (cee), viewing  democratic backsliding through the prism of a range of cases beyond hungary and poland, to redress the imbalance in current scholarship.Over the past decade a consensus has emerged that democracy in cee is sharply deteriorating, perhaps even  backsliding into new forms of authoritarianism. Debate has, however, so far focused disproportionately on the two most dramatic and surprising cases: hungary and poland. This book reflects on the  backsliding debate through the experience of cee countries such as the czech republic, bulgaria, latvia, and estonia; as well as neighbouring post-communist regions such as the western balkans and former soviet union (cases such< as moldova and ukraine), whose patterns of failing or partial democratisation may be newly instructive for analysing the development of cee. 9780367210007 9780367738686 0367738686 �N*Y0W:Sbeu�eSN�[hQ?eV{<Strategic Cultures And Security Policies In The Asia-pacificThis book shows how one of the most powerful tools of security studies strategic culture illuminates the origins and implications of the asia-pacific region s difficult issues, from the rise of china and the american pivot, to the shifting calculations of many other actors. Strategic culture sometimes challenges and always enriches prevailing neo-realist presumptions about the region. It provides a bridge between material and ideational explanations of state behavior and helps capture the tension between neoclassical realist and constructivist approaches. The case studies in this book survey the role of strategic culture in the behaviors of australia, china, japan, the philippines, south korea and the united states. They show the contrast between structural expectations and cultural predispositions, as realist geopolitical security threats and opportunities interact with domestic elite and popular interpretation of historical narratives and distinctive political-military cultures to influence security policies. 9780367739041 0367739046ё��:g�gN^:W�vS_�N� ,{2wS9Contemporary Issues In Financial Institutions And Markets�This book showcases recent academic work on contemporary issues in financial institutions and markets.

The authors consider important questions regarding agency, strategic action, and institutional outcomes that have significance for social mobilization, social movements, and authoritarian governance. This collection proposes an interactive perspective linking up contentious politics with routine governance through a dynamic articulation of repertoires of contention. The authors use a micro-mobilization perspective to frame the different trajectories of protest networks in times of uncertainty. They place the interactions between grassroots activists, structured organizations, and state actors at the centre of the explanation of change and stability in the recent mobilizations of the region. 2021-01-31 9780367733803 0367733803T�Tu�NNlQqQ g�R�{t�lQl0�ltNlQqQ g�R�{t+Co-production And Public Service Management6Citizenship, Governance And Public Services ManagementVictor PestoffYThis volume compiles a dozen essays, by one of the most prolific proponents of co-production as a solution for many of the challenges facing public services and democratic governance at the outset of the 21st century. Co-production is considered a partnership between citizens and public service providers that is essential for meeting a growing number of social challenges, since neither the government nor citizens can solve them on their own. These challenges include, among other things, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of public services in times of financial strain; increasing the legitimacy of the public sector after decades of questioning its ability with the spread of new public management; promoting social integration and cultural pluralism in increasingly diverse societies when millions of refugees and immigrants are on the move; tackling the threat of burgeoning populism following the rise of anti-immigrant and anti-global parties in many countries in recent years; and finally, finding viable solutions for meeting the growing needs of aging populations in many parts of the world. 9780815395041 9780367731441 0367731444�mT���S�ы�vcb����N0Am�R'`N���SS:Hybrid Englishes And The Challenges Of And For Translation&Identity, Mobility And Language Change�This volume problematizes the concept and practice of translation in an interconnected world in which english, despite its hegemonic status, can no longer be considered a coherent unified entity but rather a mobile resource subject to various kinds of hybridization. Drawing upon recent work in the domains of translation studies, literary studies and (socio-)linguistics, it explores the centrality of translation as both a trope for the analysis of contemporary transcultural dynamics and as a concrete communication practice in the globalized world. The chapters range across many geographic realities and genres (including fiction, memoir, animated film and hip-hop), and deal with subjects as varied as self-translation, translational ethics and language change. As a whole, the book makes an important contribution to our understanding of how meanings are generated and relayed in a context of super-diversity, in which traditional understandings of language and translation can no longer be sustained. 9780367728564 0367728567!Yuf[�v>yOu;m��Ǐ>y�NQ�~R�gN�[݋R�g�N�,{�N��f[`N��v�~�� The Social Lives Of Study AbroadmUnderstanding Second Language Learners' Experiences Through Social Network Analysis And Conversation AnalysisAtsushi Hasegawa�This volume presents an innovative approach to understanding the language socialization process of second language learners in study abroad programs, focusing on the case of study abroad programs in japan. Study abroad experiences are so diverse that both macro and micro viewpoints are needed to capture such complexity. This book looks for a way forward by adopting a novel approach which integrates social network analysis and conversation nalysis and allows for a fuller, more nuanced understanding of varying experiences of study abroad participants.

This book aims to understand and explain this phenomenon, utilizing a variety of perspectives from international relations theory. One prominent issue is how turkey, long embedded in the west via nato and other european organizations, is growing more confident and is asserting more independent foreign policy positions. This is particularly marked in the middle east, where some suggest turkey is pursuing a "neo-ottomanist" agenda. At times, this competes with and creates tensions with the west. However, a rising turkey can also be a constructive phenomenon and complement the west. This book examines geopolitical, economic, and cultural dimensions of turkey s rise, pointing to both turkish success and the limits of turkish power and influence. 9780367728243 0367728249�Q�y �`�t�"}�b^ T�~�)Rnf�k�^X\�^�|_�_��lmKQ ��v�O?Kaikhosru Sorabji's Letters To Philip Heseltine (peter Warlock)dTwo extraordinary personalities, and one remarkable friendship, are reflected in the unique corpus of letters from anglo-parsi composer-critic kaikhosru sorabji (1892-1988) to philip heseltine (peter warlock) (1894-1930): a fascinating primary source for the period 1913-1922 available in a complete scholarly edition for the first time.The volume also provides a new contextual, critical and interpretative framework, incorporating a myriad of perspectives: identities, social geographies, style construction, and mutual interests and influences.

It compares and contrasts their approaches, comments upon their robustness and identifies examples of good practice. The quality of supervision has been shown to be a major factor in determining the learning experiences of doctoral scholars and their chances of success. However, relatively little is known about the ways in which doctoral supervisors are selected for their roles, supported to perform them, and recognised for their efforts. This book looks at these matters in 21 major doctoral awarding countries, collectively responsible for over 90% of global doctoral awards. Each case study constitutes a stand-alone contribution to the literature on doctoral supervision in that country and:provides a brief introduction to the national context of doctoral education;outlines policies and procedures for the selection of supervisors;discusses the support and development available to supervisors and gives examples of good practice; comments on if and how supervision is recognised and rewarded. 9780367224325 9780367732097 0367732092'k�vlQl���N0�V�[�^��N���N�� T� O�b�e��vf[uAm�R'`���e3Citizenship, Nation-building And Identity In The Eu,The Contribution Of Erasmus Student Mobility Cherry James�With brexit looming, a major issue facing uk higher education is whether the uk will be able to stay in the erasmus programme. This book sits at the intersection of three main interrelated themes - eu citizenship, the current state of the university in europe, and student mobility - as they play out in the context of an eu funded programme established not least to promote european identity, european consciousness and europe< an citizenship. Exploring through interviews with students from many countries, this book weaves together the themes of citizenship creation as a device for building a nation and a polity, the university as a public space in the era of the marketization of higher education, and communicative interaction as the mechanism by which citizenship is created. Ultimately it asks if the building bricks of national citizenship can be transposed to the transnational scale, and assist in creating the transnational, eu citizenship. 9781138479746 9780367552527 0367552523R�g"��R�~He�O(u�~T�k�sR�gAnalysing Financial PerformanceUsing Integrated Ratio Analysis Nic La Rosa9Despite a plethora of techniques to analyse the financial performance of a business, there has been no single methodology that has been overwhelmingly preferred by users. This could be an indication that, either the methods themselves are deficient or they are limited by other factors that are not easily overcome. Unlike the current offerings in the field, which focus on issues relating to business performance management or non-financial aspects (such as market efficiency, satisfaction, workforce productivity etc.), this book offers a solution to a major gap in the literature and understanding for those seeking to measure, analyse and benchmark the financial performance of any organization (for-profit, not-for-profit and government agencies). It clearly identifies why current techniques fail; proposes and evidences a solution that overcomes these issues by including two algorithms that can be combined, to solve this problem; and demonstrates the practical application of the technique to the benefit of users in order to pinpoint real performance levels and insights. 9780367552466 9780367735944 0367735946Routledge ��N�ZSOKb�Q,The Routledge Handbook Of Language And Media572The routledge handbook of language and media provides an accessible and comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art research in media linguistics.

More broadly, it challenges forms of (re)presenting and producing knowledge about subjects on the move; and transforms existing theorisations and critical understandings of mobility and its shaping power. Through an ethnographic approach, the book brings us closer to a number of practices, features and objects that, while characterising the lives of africans in guangzhou, are also evidence of the interplay between individual aspirations, and the structural constraints embedded in contemporary regimes of transnational mobility.

Resource users are many, their goals diverse, and their impacts on the environment often uncertain.How we use those resources depends on the signals and incentives we receive, from either the market or our governments. These systems encourage certain uses of natural resources, but they are not perfect. We harm the environment not out of malice, but because we do not know the consequences of our actions, or the incentives for harm are too great to ignore.Economics and the environment argues that, by lowering the cost and improving the quality of the necessary signals and incentives, we can better reconcile our diverse interests in the environment. 9780367356811 0367356813physical education f[`NЏ�R�Џ�RYe���v�eU\gLearning Movements&New Perspectives Of Movement Education7Routledge Studies In Physical Education And Youth Sport.Contemporary ways of understanding human movements, specifically movement learning, are heavily dominated by individualistic, dualistic and mechanistic perspectives. These perspectives are individualistic in the sense that in research as well as in educational practice movements/movers are typically decontextualized, they are dualistic in the sense that the body is taken to be  inhabited , even  governed, by a rational mind which is not itself a part of that body; and they are mechanistic in the sense that movements and movement learning can be  calculated . This approach has supported the dominance of a westernised and predominantly white, masculinised and heteronormative view of able bodies, embodiment and movements. Hence, it has contributed to marginalise not only other approaches and perspectives and individuals. New research has evolved, including new approaches and these held perspectives have been challenged by social and culturally sensitive, holistic as well as pluralistic, and dynamic/organic perspectives of human movements and moving humans.

Though focused on the modern era, the volume illustrates that the colonial paradigm is a framework of theories and concepts that can be applied globally and deeply into the past. The chapters engage with a wide range of topics and disciplinary approaches from the theoretical to the empirical, deepening our understanding of under-researched areas of colonial studies and providing a cutting edge contribution to the study of continental and internal colonialism for all those interested in the global impact of colonialism on continents. 9780367479541 0367479540l;NNGP�e����Oo`�d�~NTwt?e�lDemocracy And Fake News< 0Information Manipulation And Post-truth Politics+Politics, Media And Political Communication�This book explores the challenges that disinformation, fake news and post-truth politics pose to democracy from a multidisciplinary perspective. The authors analyse and interpret how the use of technology and social media as well as the emergence of new political narratives has been progressively changing the information landscape, undermining some of the pillars of democracy.The volume sheds light on some topical questions connected to fake news, thereby contributing to a fuller understanding of its impact on democracy. In the introduction, the editors offer some orientating definitions of post-truth politics, building a theoretical framework where various different aspects of fake news can be understood. The book is then divided into three parts: part i helps to contextualise the phenomena investigated, offering definitions and discussing key concepts as well as aspects linked to the manipulation of information systems, especially considering its reverberation on democracy. 9780367479558 SE-D99-0202 9781138323803 1138323802-NN�~Nя�N�egNLu-N�v�[YeN�Q�z����N0>y:SNS_@\9Religion And Conflict In Medieval And Early Modern Worlds'Identities, Communities And Authorities+Themes In Medieval And Early Modern HistoryoThis volume seeks to increase understanding of the origins, ideology, implementation, impact and historiography of religion and conflict in the medieval and early modern periods. The essays examine ideas about religion and conflict in the context of text and identity, church and state, civic environments, marriage, the parish, heresy, gender, dialogues, war and finance, and holy war. The volume covers a wide chronological period, and the contributors investigate relationships between religion and conflict from the seventh to eighteenth centuries ranging from byzantium to post-conquest mexico. Religious expressions of conflict at a localised level are explored, including the use of language in legal and clerical contexts to influence social behaviours, and the use of religion to legitimise the spiritual value of violence, rationalising the enforcement of social rules.

The book begins by discussing how time has previously been conceptualized in the literature, drawing on studies from variationist sociolinguistics, corpus linguistics, and critical discourse analysis. The volume then segues into a discussion of how tsa is applied in other contexts in which observed values are expected to be dependent on earlier values, such as stock markets and sales figures, and introduces a range of discourse-specific contexts to show how the technique might be extended to analyze trends or shed further light on relevant themes in discourse over time. 9781138584631 9780367671662 0367671662-N�N6��~w�IN�v�RXTN YXT�eg�?�9h�^�v�k�����:The Mobilization And Demobilization Of Middle-class Revolt#Comparative Insights From Argentina Daniel Ozarow�Adopting argentina s popular uprisings against neoliberalism including the 2001-02 rebellion and subsequent mass protests as a case study, the mobilization and demobilization of middle-class revolt analyzes two decades of longitudinal research (1995-2018), including world bank and latinobar�meter household survey data, along with participant interviews, to explore why nonpolitically active middle-class citizens engage in radical protest movements, and why they eventually demobilize.

Transformative aesthetics uncovers these theories mutual concern with the transformation of those involved. From artists to spectators, readers, listeners, or audiences, the idea of transformation is one familiar to cultures across the globe. Transformation of the individual is only one part of this aesthetic phenomenon, as contemporary artists are increasingly called upon to have a transformative, sustainable impact on society at large. To this end, erika fischer lichte and benjamin wihstutz present a series of fresh perspectives on the discussion of aesthetics, uniting western theory with that of india, china, australia, and beyond. Each chapter of transformative aesthetics focuses on a different approach to transformation, from the foundations of aesthetics to contemporary theories, breaking new ground to establish a network of thought that spans theatre, performance, art history, cultural studies, and philosophy. 9781138057173 9780367730581 0367730588 )R�m�v�[‰�~NmR�g"A Macroeconomic Analysis Of ProfitAndrea Carrera�Based on the observation of economic reality, this book provides for the foundations of a new structure of national payment systems. Specifically, to this end, a rigorous accounting for money transactions, savings, and invested profit is suggested, with a major aim to settle sustainable lending levels. Profit lies at the heart of economic activities. Indeed, companies, from small to large, seek net gains to remunerate shareholders and to increase their assets. Yet, economists are far from sharing a common theory of profit. Using mathematical tools and a discursive approach, this book contributes to the debates in such regard, in the attempt to provide n< ew answers to old economic issues. What is macroeconomic profit? is there any relationship between wages, lending, and profit? this book is an accesible resource for economists and financial experts as well as global economics students, researchers, academics and historians alike. 97808153803516���'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,��wt�]'Yf[ 9780367728359 0367728354S_�NpS�^Fz�e�g\sY�e�N�?�(��Y���v>yOckIN0���NN:g�gxvz&Contemporary Muslim Girlhoods In India7A Study Of Social Justice, Identity And Agency In Assam Saba Hussain4Based on empirical research in india, this book presents a post-colonial feminist analysis of subjectivities available to muslim girls and the ways in which they are inhabited and negotiated. Examining government education policies together with the narratives of teachers and parents, the author explores the manner in which gender, class, ethnicity and religion intersect both to confer certain subjectivities and to challenge or reinforce the conferred subjectivities. A study of the imposition of subjectivities that label muslim girls as economically subordinate and culturally different, contemporary muslim girlhoods in india analyses muslim girls reconstructions of self through a combination of reflexivity, resilience and agency, and conformity. Drawing on the thought of pierre bourdieu and nancy fraser, this volume offers an original contribution to the study of gendered minorities, institutions and relationships in post-colonial contexts, and an alternative to identitarian politics or cultural explanations of muslim women s educational deprivation in india. 9781138606449 9780367670948 0367670941transport geography�_�s��l�^�v>yOf[��l� �CyclingA Sociology Of V�lomobility Peter CoxUCycling:;a sociology of v�lomobility explores cycling as a sociological phenomenon. Drawing on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, it considers the interaction of materials, competencies and meanings that comprise a variety of cycling practices. What might appear at first to be self-evident actions are shown to be constructed through the interplay of numerous social and political forces. Using a theoretical framework from mobilities studies, its central themes respond to the question of what it is;about cycling that provokes so much interest and passion, both positive and negative. Individual chapters consider how cycling has appeared as theme and illustration in social theory, as well as;the legacies of these theorizations.;the book;expands on the image of cycling practices as the product of an assemblage of technology, rider and environment. 9781138691872 9780367739768 0367739763�ekSu��Bl�[Ye��?eV{Nf[!hYe���vq_�THThe Impact Of New Health Imperatives On Educational Policy And SchoolingYCurrently a great deal of public discourse around health is on the assumed relationship between childhood inactivity, young people s diets, and a putative steep rise in obesity. Children and young people are increasingly being identified as a population at  risk in relation to these health concerns. Such concerns are driving what might be described as new  health imperatives which prescribe the choices young people should make around lifestyle: physical activity, body regulation, dietary habits, and sedentary behaviour. These health imperatives are a powerful force driving major policy initiatives on health and education in a number of countries in the western world. Schools in particular have been targeted for the implementation of a plethora of initiatives designed to help children and young people lose weight, become more active and change their eating patterns inside and outside school.Addressing these issues requires an innovative theoretical approach. Neither the fields of  eating disorders nor  obesity research has addressed these issues from a sociological and pedagogical perspective. 9781138802414 9780367671211 0367671212$�c"}�W�Nz�/g�vyr�kYe���vpeW[�b/g�S�['`|^?Q�V-12t^�~��X�v!j�WN�e�l>Exploring Digital Technologies For Art-based Special Education3Models And Methods For The Inclusive K-12 ClassroomkExploring digital technologies for art-based special education details the use of digital technologies for inclusive art education, and showcases strategies for implementing arts-oriented technologies in primary- and secondary-level special education classrooms.

This comprehensive collection examines the development of an emerging global governance on migration with the focus on spaces, roles, strategies and alliance-making of a composite transnational civil society engaged in issues of rights and the protection of migrants and their families. It reveals the need to strengthen networking and convergence among movements that adopt different entry points to the same struggle, from fighting  managed migration to contesting corporate control of food and land. The authors examine the opportunities and challenges faced by civil society in its endeavour to promote a rights-based approach within international and intergovernmental fora engaged in setting up a global compact for the management of migration, such as the global forum for migration and development, and in other global policy spaces. 9780367147266 9780367733346 036773334X How do people communicate their romantic feelings? gift giving is one way. Giving and receiving of gifts is a characteristic of intimate relationships. Gifts are a message, a form of communication with a tangible material object, about love, affection, or concern for the recipient. The "romantic gift" evokes a multitude of intertwined meanings: passion, intimacy, affection, persuasion, care, celebration, altruism, and nostalgia. They can also connote the negative images of obligation and reciprocity. Romantic gift giving may be practiced at rituals, during rites of passage, or for casual occasions, to affirm the continued importance of the romantic relationship. We may even romanticize the giving of gifts to the self, to nonhuman companions, and to others we do not know personally. If loving and giving are a practice, then romantic gift giving is a practice of loving with intimate or would-be intimate others.This book addresses gift giving among consumers attempting to express and construct romantic love. It lies at the intersection of consumption, markets, and culture. 9780367273606 0367273608ir(�O(uN�n(u-N�v�_tuirf[�3Psychobiological Issues In Substance Use And MisuseCurrent Issues In PsychobiologygIn this book, murphy brings together a team of international experts to review cutting-edge scientific literature from the field of psychobiology and related disciplines which addresses important questions and broadens our understanding of substance use behaviours.The reader is introduced to the multi-faceted nature of substance use and misuse, and its growing need to be discussed across diverse disciplines and perspectives.

But with enhanced accessibility via electronic publication of legislation in many commonwealth jurisdictions, drafters "speak" not only to lawyers and judges, but also to untrained users. This shift of the legislative audience has changed radically the requirements for legislation and its drafting. This is crucially important as the quality of legislation within the commonwealth remains an essential element of democracy and the rule of law. The book aims to alert policy officers, legal officers, law reformers, and drafters of the many innovations in the drafting of legislation within the commonwealth. And ultimately to bring to light the academic foundations of the modern approach to legislative quality, which really boils down to effectiveness of the legislative product. 9781138794528 9780367735739 0367735733�O���1u����TW�_��Tyr\O�T �-N�v���N�V�XEroding The Language Of Freedom7Identity Predicament In Selected Works Of Harold Pinter Farah Ali�Let down by the uncertainties of memory, language, and their own family units, the characters in harold pinter s plays endure per< sistent struggles to establish their own identities.

The five-time world champions have constructed their national identity around this sport. Perhaps for this reason it s no wonder that there are many brazilian social scientists doing research on this theme.The first part of this volume is dedicated to the history of brazilian football. The main question is how did football become so popular in the country? it also looks at other interesting historical developments in brazilian football history up to this day. The second part considers current phenomena, especially the place of brazilian football in a globalized world: what are the consequences of an extremely commercialized and mediatized sport on a developing country? how does brazil figure as the main supplying country of football talents? how does the population feel about seeing their players in europe instead of their own country? finally, the book will conclude with a critique of a documentary film about a brazilian national team game in haiti which was part of the brazilian army s blue helmet mission. 9780415488662 9780367735432 0367735431a'Y)R�ebgR 1963 2013New Theatre In Italy 1963 2013Valentina Valentini�New theatre in italy 1963-2013 makes the case for the centrality of late-millennium italian avant-garde theatre in the development of the new forms of performance that have emerged in the 21st century. Starting in the sixties, young artists and militants in italy reacted to the violence in their streets and ruptures in the family unit that are now recognized as having been harbingers of the end of the global post-war system. As traditional rituals of state and church faltered, a new generation of cultural operators, largely untrained and driven away from political activism, formed collectives to explore new ways of speaking theatrically, new ways to create and experience performance, and new relationships between performer and spectator. Although the vast majority of the works created were transient, like all performance, their aesthetic and social effects continue to surface today across media on a global scale, affecting visual art, cinema, television and the behavioural aesthetics of social networks. 9780367820275 0367820277ancient philosophy�g�b�V�[(u;NIN�͑�e`�&Otf[N��Ƌ��KN���vsQ�|Plato s Pragmatism;Rethinking The Relationship Between Ethics And Epistemology"Nicholas R. Baima And Tyler Paytas�Plato s pragmatism offers the first comprehensive defense of a pragmatist reading of plato. According to plato, the ultimate rational goal is not to accumulate knowledge and avoid falsehood but rather to live an excellent human life. The book contends that a pragmatic outlook is present throughout the platonic corpus. The authors argue that the successful pursuit of a good life requires cultivating certain ethical commitments, and that maintaining these commitments often requires violating epistemic norms. In the course of defending the pragmatist interpretation, the authors present a forceful platonic argument for the conclusion that the value of truth has its limits, and that what matters most are one s ethical commitments and the courage to live up to them. Their interpretation has far-reaching consequences in that it reshapes how we understand the relationship between plato s ethics and epistemology. 9780367445423 9780367738488 03677384818nb0h�oN���N�:g�g�YUO�g �}Y_�s{�vzz��Play, Performance, And Identity'How Institutions Structure Ludic Spaces�Play helps define who we are as human beings. However, many of the leisurely/ludic activities people participate in are created and governed by corporate entities with social, political, and business agendas. As such, it is critical that scholars understand and explicate the ideological underpinnings of played-through experiences and how they affect the player/performers who engage in them.This book explores how people play and why their play matters, with a particular interest in how ludic experiences are often constructed and controlled by the interests of institutions, including corporations, non-profit organizations, government agencies, religious organizations, and non-governmental organizations (ngos). Each chapter explores diverse sites of play. From theme parks to comic conventions to massively-multiplayer online games, they probe what roles the designers of these experiences construct for players, and how such play might affect participants' identities and ideologies. 9780367739539 0367739534S��N�N{|f[��N�yf[0�W@x���e0�^� �Am�R'`Roads And Anthropology*Ethnography, Infrastructures, (im)mobility�Roads and the powerful sense of mobility that they promise carry us back and forth between the sweeping narratives of globalisation, and the specific, tangible materialities of particular times and places.

Such organizations increasingly seek to obtain legitimacy in the eyes of groups beyond their member state elites. This book advances scholarly debate on the politics of legitimacy and legitimation in global governance. It brings together researchers from different subfields of international relations in order to highlight trends and contradictions in the contemporary politics of legitimacy across areas of sustainable development, humanitarian relief, responsible investment, sustainable fisheries and labour standards. The chapters explore legitimation efforts by various forms of global governance bodies, such as intergovernmental organizations, public private partnerships and fully private bodies. The book demonstrates that different governance forms beyond the nation state share deep legitimacy challenges and engage in continuous legitimation attempts. 9781138831643 9780367729431 0367729431�~Nm�YsY�D�,g�e�N�v'`+R Ns^I{Economic Woman*Gendering Inequality In The Age Of Capital Frances RadaykThe author introduces the concept of economic woman and makes her visible in duality with and opposition to the exclusive model of economic man. Economic man has epitomized neo-liberal capitalism, which embraces competition and maximization of profit, resulting in a steep increase in economic inequality. The book demonstrates that women s inequality is a crucial factor in economic inequality, which cannot be fully understood without relating to women s situation, and that economic woman cannot thrive in the conditions of economic inequality created under global neo-liberalism.Emphasising the international human rights guarantees of women s right to equality in all fields of life, the author documents woman s increased participation in political, public, financial and corporate institutions, employment and entrepreneurship, with some women reaching high profile positions. Nevertheless, using global data, she reveals that economic woman lags behind, with a severe economic power deficit, an unfulfilled promise of equal employment opportunity, a gendered impact of poverty and barriers to gender equality in the family. 9781481313674 1481313673�social studies|society & culture: general|social issues & processes|disability: social aspects/religious studies|aspects of religion (non/christian)|theology/religious studies|aspects of religion (non/christian)|religious life & practice/religious stud�e���xN�j��k�u0^yf[�T�Wcw�vASW[�gAccessible Atonement-Disability, Theology, And The Cross Of ChristDavid MclachlanThe atonement-where god in jesus christ addresses sin and the whole of the human predicament-lies at the heart of the christian faith and life. Its saving power is for all people, and yet a deep hesitancy has prevented meaningful discussion of the cross' relevance for people with disabilities. Speaking of disability and the multifaceted concept of the atonement has created an unresolvable tension, not least because sin and disability often seem to be associated within the biblical text. While work in disability theology has made great progress in developing a positive theological framework for disability as an integral part of human diversity, it has so far fallen short of grappling with this particular set of interpretive challenges presented by the cross.In accessible atonement, reflecting on his experience as both a pastor and a theologian, david mclachlan brings the themes and objectives of disability theology into close conversation with traditional ideas of the cross as jesus' sacrifice, justice, and victory. 9780367730987 0367730987-N�V0pS�^N�N2m�v�S{|�s�N'`.China, India And Alternative Asian ModernitiesThe conception of modernity as a radical;rupture from the past runs parallel to the conception of europe as the primary locus of global history. The essays in this volume contest the temporal and spatial divisions between past and present, modernity and tradition, and europe s progress and asia s stasis which the conventional narrative of modernity creates. Drawing on early modern chinese and indian history and culture instead, the authors of the book explore the provenance of modernity beyond the west to see it in a transcultural and pluralistic light.The central argument of this volume is that modernity does not have a singular core or essence a causal centre. Its key features need to be disaggregated and new configurations and combina< tions imagined. By studying the bhakti movement, confucian democracy, and the maritime and agrarian economies of china and india, this book enlarges the terms of debate and revisits devalued terms and concepts like tradition, religion, authority, and rural as resources for modernity. 9780367731250 0367731258SO��0�_tf[N�WcwYe��y)R0�~HeN�T�"Sport, Psychology And Christianity$Welfare, Performance And Consultancy�The majority of sport psychology research to date has been underpinned and driven by a secular perspective.

Both conceptual ambiguities and practice-related difficulties arising in vernacularisation processes point to the need of deeper reflection. Internal power struggles, vulnerabilities and intra-group inequalities go unnoticed in that context, leaving persisting forms of neo-colonialism, neo-liberalism and patriarchalism largely untouched. This is to the detriment of groups within indigenous communities such as women, the elderly or young people, alongside intergenerational rights representing considerable intersectional claims and agendas. Integrating legal theoretical, political, socio-legal and anthropological perspectives, this book disentangles indigenous rights frameworks in the particular case of peremptory norms whenever these reflect both individual and collective rights dimensions. Further-reaching conclusions are drawn for groups  in between , different formations of minority groups demanding rights on their own terms. 9780367203306 9780367728588 0367728583S��_0IN�RN�O�b#��N��z�NhQt�#�6R�vCg�RsQ�|5Ethics, Obligation, And The Responsibility To Protect7Contesting The Global Power Relations Of Accountability Mark BusserwThis book critically examines arguments about  obligation and  responsibility in relation to the responsibility to protect (r2p) and situates it within wider moral argumentation concerning the role of culpability, answerability, and human rights in international affairs.It discusses the ways in which;r2p has been imagined and contested in order to illuminate some possible trajectories through which its potential might be actualized.

At the end of 2009, a successor programme to the tampere and hague programmes was developed under the swedish presidency. Called the  stockholm programme , it was adopted at a special eu council summit on 10-11 december 2009. The new agenda covers the period 2010-2014 and emphasises six areas of priority. In the context of these priorities, as well as the innovations introduced by the lisbon treaty, this edited book analyses policy change in the afsj, especially as it has been affected by the rise of supranational governance in this domain. From police cooperation and crime fighting to border management and counter-terrorism, much has changed, and the eu has taken yet another step forward in the direction of supranational governance. 9781138812406 9780367729004 0367729008 hQtSO���~Nm�S_�N�The Global Sport EconomyContemporary Issues�This book examines the global sports ecosystem through three of its central pillars: sport marketing, sports equipment manufacture and sales, and sport governance and organization. By focusing on these three themes, the book presents a nuanced and multi-faceted view of how the global sports economy works and what its main strategic challenges and opportunities are. Offering a balance between theory and practice, and adopting an international perspective with case studies and examples from the americas, europe and asia, the book addresses key issues such as corporate social responsibility, the impact of culture on international sport business, innovation and entrepreneurship, and consumer behaviour. The global sport economy is fascinating reading for students, researchers and practitioners with an interest in sport business and management, sport marketing, the sporting goods industry and distribution and sport governance. 9780367670870 0367670879�W^-N�v�yl0�]\ON�[�^6R ��&Ofe��WS�N>y:S-N�vOO@bN"��N+Migration, Work And Home-making In The City=Dwelling And Belonging Among Vietnamese Communities In LondonAnnabelle WilkinsThis book explores the relationships between home, work and migration among vietnamese people in east london, demonstrating the diversity of home-making practices and forms of belonging in relation to the dwelling, workplace and wider city. 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. 9781138577176"6���'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,nf�g�e�'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN��,[r%m'Yf[ 9780367728984 0367728982�V0R�yf[�[����[�yf[�Tf[�v�e�S` Returning To Scientific Practice)A New Reflection On Philosophy Of ScienceXu Zhu And Wu Tong�This book is a result from a collective study on philosophy of scientific practice (psp), which began around 2002 and still;ongoing. There is an apparently increasing interest in scientific practice, influenced by the historicistic philosophy of science and the sociology of scientific knowledge (ssk). Prof. Wu tong and his research group believe that it is necessary for psp to turn from the theory-dominant position to the practice dominance. Psp has also put forward the possibility of reinterpreting the;epistemic status of local knowledge in chinese tradition, which provides the most significant motivation to participate this study. In this book, we have selected three main cases; namely, chinese medicine, fengshui, and ethnobotany  ;to examine the effect of psp.;the aim of our collective study is not merely on theoretical construction of psp, but also to consider;the various applications of;psp, especially for re-interpreting and < demonstrating the;variety of local knowledge from traditional china, which seems to be a genuine contribution to the international enterprise of philosophy of science, particularly made by chinese scholars. 9780367215910 0367215918�eb�~b�N���V(W��WS�v�~��War Without Fronts"The American Experience In VietnamThomas C Thayer�This book is a unique source of information about u.S.

Though padmanji was well-known, and a very influential figure among christian converts, his contributions have received inadequate attention from the perspective of  social reform  an intellectual domain dominated by offshoots of the brahmo samaj movement, like the prarthana samaj in bombay. This book constitutes an in-depth analysis of padmanji s relationships with questions of reform, education, modernity, feminism, and religion, that had wide-ranging repercussions on the intellectual horizon of 19th-century india. It presents padmanji s integrated writing persona and identity as a revolutionary pathfinder of his times who amalgamated and blended vernacular ideas of christianity together with early feminism, modernity, and incipient nationalism. 9780367479671 SE-K3-0055 9780367216733 0367216736�YsY�]\O�Su;m�hQtc�~KY�eWomen's Work And Women's Lives!The Continuing Struggle Worldwide Hilda Kahne#This book is a provocative analysis of the nature of the relation between women and paid work in both modernizing and industrial countries.

It addresses police theory, policy and practice, and also provides new directions for future research on intra- and inter-organisational policing.Analysing boundaries is of increasing global importance for policing policy and practice. Boundaries reflect the division-of-labour inherent to complex organisations and their specialist units. In order to operate effectively, however, these boundaries must be crossed, and strong and reliable linkages must be built. Intra-organisationally, it is vital to understand how specialist units form and function and interact with other units. 9780367731588 0367731584YCQƋ��0�etQ�ZSON'Yf[�Q\Oc�[@Multiliteracies, Emerging Media, And College Writing InstructionSantosh Khadka�This book proposes a broad-based multiliteracies theory and praxis for college writing curriculum. Khadka expands on the work of the new london group s theory of multiliteracies by integrating work from related disciplinary fields such as media studies, intercultural communication, world englishes, writing studies, and literacy studies to show how they might be brought together to aid in designing curriculum for teaching multiple literacies, including visual, digital, intercultural, and multimodal, in writing and literacy classes. Building on insights developed from qualitative analysis of data from the author s own course, the book examines the ways in which diverse groups of students draw on existing literacy practices while also learning to cultivate the multiple literacies, including academic, rhetorical, visual, intercultural, and multimodal, needed in mediating the communication challenges of a globalized world. 9780367728557 0367728559'`+R0�QNN�QNl��W�^�2m0�bN�2mN�N2msQ�|�v�SS0Gender, Agriculture And Agrarian Transformations4Changing Relations In Africa, Latin America And AsiavThis book presents research from across the globe on how gender relationships in agriculture are changing. In many regions of the world, agricultural transformations are occurring through increased commodification, new value-chains, technological innovations introduced by cgiar and other development interventions, declining viability of small-holder agriculture livelihoods, male out-migration from rural areas, and climate change. This book addresses how these changes involve fluctuations in gendered labour and decision making on farms and in agriculture and, in many places, have resulted in the feminization of agriculture at a time of unprecedented climate change. Chapters uncover both how women successfully innovate and how they remain disadvantaged when compared to men in terms of access to land, labor, capital and markets that would enable them to succeed in agriculture. 9780367733810 0367733811caribbean studies �yl�eSN�`a�~Nm ,{2Hr*Culture And Emotional Economy Of Migration Badri NarayanvThis book studies how the act of migration is a motivating constituent in the production of popular culture in both the homeland and the destination.

It offers a new axiomatic structure and a set of mobility indices to discuss partial trends and interrogate the human development status at the subgroup and subregional levels. While traditional human development theories are primarily concerned with static distributions corresponding to a point in time, this book looks at an oft-neglected side of hdi and focuses on relative changes in human development that may not be captured by the absolutist framework. In addition, the authors also introduce the concepts of;jump and fractional mobility which aid in tracking the development and stagnation among various groups within a population.This work breaks fresh ground in the study of human development. 9780367673819 0367673819 'k2m;NCg0T�l'`NCg�R+European Sovereignty, Legitimacy, And Power-Routledge/uaces Contemporary European StudiesBart M.J.

It argues that sovereignty should be based on the will of citizens acting through various political bodies within the eu: city halls, regional entities, national governments, and eu institutions, and develops a general theory, arguably applicable to any political order. The eu is an unprecedented political project that is in tension with traditional forms of state legitimation based on national democracy, as nationalists and populists throughout europe often make clear. 9780367894689SE-D73/77-0088 9780367728878 0367728877political geographyTςT��v?e�l0Wt.Political Geographies Of The Post-soviet Union#This comprehensive volume observes how, after 25 years of transition and uncertainty in the countries that constituted the former soviet union, their political geographies remain in a state of flux.

They also examine new developments towards economic blocs, such as membership in the european union or the competing eurasian economic union, as well as new security arrangements in the form of military cooperation and alliance structures.This book reflects the broad range of changes across this important world region by engaging in insightful analysis of current developments in central asia, ukraine, russia, the caucasus, and separatist regions. 9780367730307 0367730308 �W���e�vN�OT?e�lzz��,Cultivating New Post-secular Political Space/This comprehensive volume provides crucial insights from contemporary academics and practitioners into how positive interventions might be made into post-secular political spaces that have emerged in the wake of the economic, political, and social upheavals of the 2008 global financial crisis. The failure of liberal democracy to deal effectively with such challenges has led to scapegoating of the poor, immigrants, and muslims, and contributed to the populist electoral success of, among others, the leave campaign during the 2016 united kingdom european union membership referendum, and donald trump s presidential campaign. These shocks have highlighted contemporary political spaces defined by what has been termed  all the posts : postmodern, post-christendom, post-liberal, post-political, and post-secular. 9780367728458 0367728451 N�N�NY�v�SU\-N�V�[%Developmental States Beyond East AsiaoThis comprehensive volume reviews recent scholarship regarding the role of the state in economic development.

The authors argue for the continued relevance of the  developmental state and for understanding globalization and structural transformation through the lens of this approach.

Focusing on european languages recreated in latin america, the book features examples from languages underexplored in the literature, including brazilian portuguese, amerinidian poetics, and english, spanish, portuguese outside europe, as a basis for advocating for an approach to language education rooted in critical pedagogy and post-colonial perspectives and countering hegemonic theories of globalization. While rooted in a discussion of the south, the book offers a fresh voice in current debates on language education that will be of broader interest to students and scholars across disciplines, including language education, multilingualism, cultural studies, and linguistic anthropology. 9780367730376 0367730375^�2m�W^N�f�R�Q�z��N�W^�v҉�^�N�-N^�NN^��v�Q�z�R`!Urban Africa And Violent ConflictWUnderstanding Conflict Dynamics In Central And Eastern Africa From An Urban Perspective�Urban centres are at the heart of the dynamics of war and peace, of stability and violence: as  safe havens for those seeking protection, as concentrations of public administrative and military apparatus, and as symbolic bases of state sovereignty and public authority. Heavy fighting in south sudan s capital city of juba, post electoral protests and brutal killings in bujumbura, burundi, and violent urban uprisings in congo s cities of goma and kinshasa, all demonstrate that cities represent critical arenas in african conflict and post-conflict dynamics. This comprehensive volume offers a profound analysis of the complex relationship between the dynamics of violent conflict and urbanisation in central and eastern africa. The authors underline the need to look simultaneously at cities to understand ongoing conflict and violence, and at conflict-dynamics to understand current urbanisation processes in this part of the world. 9780367729677 03677296794l N�eSW��N�S��_‰�_N�[E�cbUnderwater Cultural Heritage)Ethical Concepts And Practical ChallengesElena Perez-alvarofUnderwater cultural heritage investigates cases of underwater cultural heritage, exploring ethical issues that have never been studied before. A vast cultural heritage lies beneath the sea, including the archaeological remains of more than three million vessels, as well as historic monuments and whole cities. In addition, climate change, population growth and current events around the world mean that new underwater cultural heritage is being created faster than ever before. It is, therefore, essential that the ethical issues related to the management of such heritage are considered now, especially as decisions made now will bestow the heritage with a value and will establish legal frameworks that could be used either to protect or harm underwater heritage in the future.Considering a range of challenges related to underwater cultural heritage - including preservation, management, use, sustainability, valuation, politics, identity, human rights, and intangible heritage - the book presents case studies that both illustrate the key ethical issues and also offer possible solutions to help navigate such < challenges. 9780367671112 0367671115 �VE��bD��l�N2mU\g2Asian Perspectives On International Investment Law�With changes to the international investment law landscape and asian countries now actively developing their network of bilateral investment treaties (bits) and free trade agreements (ftas), this volume studies issues relating to asian perspectives on international investment law and forecasts the future of asian contribution to its science and practice.The book discusses the major factors that have been driving asian countries to new directions in international investment rule-making and dispute settlement. It also looks at whether asian countries are crafting a new model of international investment law to reflect their specific socio-cultural values.

However, there are significant and well documented limitations associated with current efforts to encourage more sustainable consumption patterns, ranging from informational and time constraints to the highly individualizing effect of market-based participation. This volume, featuring essays solicited from experts engaged in sustainable consumption research from around the world, presents empirical and theoretical illustrations of the various means through which politics and power influence (un)sustainable consumption practices, policies and perspectives. With chapters on compelling topics including collective action, behaviour-change and the transition movement, the authors discuss why current efforts have largely failed to meet environmental targets and explore promising directions for research, policy and practice. 9781138056206 9780367670580 0367670585feminist geographyRoutledge S_�NsYCg;NINKb�Q/The Routledge Handbook Of Contemporary FeminismuFeminism as a method, a movement, a critique, and an identity has been the subject of debates, contestations and revisions in recent years, yet contemporary global developments and political upheavals have again refocused feminism s collective force.

This original contribution to the literature examines such climate changes through the lens of property rights, rather than through the lens of land use planning. The inherent assumption pursued is that the different types of environmental changes, with their particular effects and impact on land use, share common issues regarding the relation between the social construction of land via property rights and the dynamics of a changing environment. Making these common issues explicit and discussing the different approaches to them is the central objective of this book.

This book examines the impacts this is having on britons living in two eu countries. It moves beyond the political agency of underprivileged migrants to demonstrate that those who are relatively well-off also have political subjectivities: they can enter the political fray if their fundamental values or key interests are challenged. This book is based on ethnographic inquiry into the political agency of britons in the spanish province;of alicante and south-west france in the twenty-first century. Themes such as britons becoming elected as local councillors in their countries of residence, migrants reactions to brexit, organisation of anti-brexit campaigners, and claims for residency and citizenship are examined. 9780367740139 0367740133 �[Ye0�Q�zN�Q�Nr^��,Religion, Conflict And Military InterventionRosemary DurwardYFor many years religion has been the neglected component of international relations and yet in an age of globalization and terrorism, religious identity has become increasingly important in the lives of people in the west as well as the developing world.

It is critical that scene evidence is collected and recorded efficiently, as the scene can quickly change. The sooner evidence can be collected, reviewed, and analyzed, often the better an understanding investigators will have as to how and why the incident occurred. Crime scene documentation: preserving the evidence and the growing role of 3d laser scanning demonstrates at length the value of laser scanning through the use of numerous case studies of investigators who have utilized various 3d technologies and laser scanning to document scenes. Thorough and accurate scene documentation is an essential function at a science and proves particularly valuable in courtroom presentations to help jurors understand a crime or accident s likely chain of events. The more advanced a scene documentation method is, the better it can be utilized to capture details that will lead to optimal scene diagramming. 9789813296626 9813296623politics of the welfare state l��W-N�V�v>yO�y)R$Social Welfare In Transitional China(Sociology, Media And Journalism In China Keqing Han405eAt a time of significant transformations in chinese society, this book addresses the key issue of social welfare and the reform of the welfare system in 21st century china.

This book takes up the controversial subject of dickens and religion. In a close study of major novels, it argues that networks of biblical allusion reveal the judeo-christian grand narrative as key to his development as a writer, and as the ontological ground on which he stands to appeal to  the conscience of a christian people . Engaging the biblical narrative in dialogue with other contemporary narratives that concern themselves with origins, destinations, and hermeneutic decipherments, dickens affirms the bible s still-active role in popular culture. This book draws on the providential thinking of two twentieth century theorists, bakhtin and ricoeur, in tracing the development of dickens s narrative theology.

This era saw liberals re-evaluate the role of the state in response to rapid industrialization and urbanization, and new social scientific theories which stressed the importance of community such as;social darwinism, philosophical idealism, various forms of progressivism, and marxian socialism. Some liberals sought to reiterate the importance of freedom from the state, but others laid considerable stress on the compatibility of liberty, community, and increased state action.

Liberalism took different forms in the late 18th and early 19th century in different european countries. Some liberals believed that greater political and economic freedom was best fostered by minimizing the role of the state as much as possible, to allow individuals to develop their full potential. Others, however, believed that the restraining role of political institutions was vital to ensuring individual liberty  since this was the only way to prevent different goals conflicting, and protect private property. In the early usa, many of the same questions also arose  but in a context where the framers of a new constitution were trying to reconcile the importance of new constitutional liberties and the importance of civic participation with a defence of private property and the rights of individual states. 9783030145217 3030145212geography/ general �lW�vwm0W:S - T\O0W:S'Baltic Region the Region Of Cooperation8Springer Proceedings In Earth And Environmental SciencesWGennady Fedorov; Alexander Druzhinin; Elena Golubeva; Dmitry Subetto; Tadeusz Palmowski�The baltic macroregion is a platform for the development of different areas of international cooperation, which are an impor< tant factor affecting the socioeconomic growth of the region s states.

Judith bessant revises some long-standing myths about children and young people s politics. She highlights the huge gap between the many ways young people and politics are talked about and how they have long been politically active. Bessant draws on a relational historical sociology to show how since the nineteenth century certain historical dynamics, political interests and social imaginaries have enabled social scientists, writers, political leaders and policymakers to imagine and  make up different kinds of young people. Given these representations of childhood, adolescence and youth everyone knows that young people are cognitively immature, inexperienced, morally under-developed and lack good judgement. For these reasons they cannot possibly be allowed to engage in the serious, grown-up business of politics.

From the fifteenth century when millions of africans were forcefully taken away as slaves during the infamous atlantic slave trade; to the colonial conquests of the nineteenth century where european countries conquered and subsequently balkanized africa and shared the continent to european powers; and to the postcolonial era where many african leaders have maintained several instruments of exploitation, the continent has seen different forms of encounters, exploitations and oppressions. These encounters and exploitations have equally been met with resistance in different forms and at different times. The mode of africa s encounters with the rest of the world have in several ways, shaped and continue to shape the continent s social, political and economic development trajectories. Essays in this volume have addressed different aspects of these phases of encounters and resistance by africa and the african diaspora.While the volume document different phases of oppression and conflict, it also contains some accounts of africa s resistance to external and internal oppressions and exploitations. 9780367730949 0367730944'k2m�e�PNbgR�l��W 1955-1975New Music Theatre In Europe!Transformations Between 1955-1975�Between 1955 and 1975 music theatre became a central preoccupation for european composers digesting the consequences of the revolutionary experiments in musical language that followed the end of t< he second world war. The  new music theatre wrought multiple, significant transformations, serving as a crucible for the experimental rethinking of theatrical traditions, artistic genres, the conventions of performance, and the composer s relation to society. This volume brings together leading specialists from across europe to offer a new appraisal of the genre. It is structured according to six themes that investigate: the relation of new music theatre to earlier and contemporaneous theories of drama; the use of new technologies; the relation of new music theatre to progressive politics; the role of new venues and environments; the advancement of new conceptions of the performer; and the challenges that new music theatre lays down for music analysis. 9780367739904 0367739909 �l�_�QV{�O�_Ngg1Beliefs And Expectancies In Legal Decision Making�Beliefs and expectancies influence our everyday thoughts, feelings, and actions. These attributes make a closer examination of beliefs and expectancies worthwhile in any context, but particularly so within the high-stakes arena of the legal system. Whether the decision maker is a police officer assessing the truthfulness of an alibi, a juror evaluating the accuracy of an eyewitness identification, an attorney arguing a case involving a juvenile offender, or a judge deciding whether to terminate parental rights these decisions matter and without doubt are influenced by beliefs and expectancies. This volume is comprised of research on beliefs and expectancies regarding alibis, children s behaviour while testifying, eyewitness testimony, confessions, sexual assault victims, judges decisions in child protection cases, and attorneys beliefs about jurors perceptions of juvenile offender culpability. 9780367735319 0367735318�H�_N�_͑���^:W0���_0���NDance Matters TooMarkets, Memories, Identities�Dance matters too: markets, memories, identities is a rich intellectual contribution to the growing field of dance studies in india.

The prevalence of illness narratives within late nineteenth-century popular culture was made manifest on the period s british and american stages, where theatrical embodiments of illness were indisputable staples of actors repertoires.Playing sick: performances of illness in the age of victorian medicine reconstructs how actors embodied three of the era s most provocative illnesses: tuberculosis, drug addiction, and mental illness. In placing performances of illness within wider medicocultural contexts, meredith conti analyzes how such depictions confirmed or resisted salient constructions of diseases and the diseased. Conti s case studies, which range from eleonora duse s portrayal of the consumptive courtesan marguerite gautier to henry irving s performance of senile dementia in king lear, help to illuminate the interdependence of medical science and theatre in constructing nineteenth-century illness narratives. 9781138703117 9781138569775 1138569771religious ethics�[YeN�s�X��[��Religion And The EnvironmentEngaging With ReligionSusan Power Bratton*How does religion relate to our global environment? religion and the environment provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to this controversial question by covering the following important themes:the religion-environment interfacepre and post-industrial religious practices related to resource extraction and the rise of the anthropocenean analysis of religious response to the impacts of contemporary industrialization, globalization and urbanizationreligious thought, leadership, policy formation, and grassroots activism relative to the environment.

While housing has always been central to the realization and reproduction of families, more recently, the mutual embedding of home and family has become more obvious as realignments in housing markets, employment and welfare states have worked together to undermine housing access for new households, enhancing intergenerational interdependencies. More families have thus become involved in smoothening the routes of younger adult members into and up the  housing ladder . While intergenerational support appears to have become much more widespread, it remains highly differentiated across countries, cities and region< s, as well as uneven between social and income classes. This book addresses the increasing role that family support, and intergenerational transfers in particular, are playing in sustaining the formation of new households and the transition of young adults towards social and economic autonomy. 9780367738266 0367738260�e�W�v�S�S�YtǏ�S�vZ��g�cHh'a New Type Of History'-Fictional Proposals For Dealing With The PastBeverley SouthgatexLinking fiction with history and historical theory, 'a new type of history': fictional proposals for dealing with the past focuses on a selection of nineteenth- and twentieth-century novelists  tolstoy, proust, john cowper powys, virginia woolf, wyndham lewis, penelope lively, and james hamilton-paterson  who have criticized scientifically based history and proposed alternative ways of approaching the past: more subjective and personal, colourful and imaginative, and above all ethically orientated. In this, it is argued, they have been reverting to an earlier rhetorical model for history, which is now being increasingly adopted by practising historians.

Along with the christian faith came a new and foreign culture: the german and scandinavian languages of the crusaders and the latin of their priests, new names for places, superior military technology, and churches and fortifications built of stone. For newly baptized populations, the acceptance of christianity encompassed major changes in the organization and practice of political, religious and social life, entailing the acceptance of government by alien elites, of new cultic practices, and of new obligations such as taxes, tithes and military service in the armies of the christian rulers. 9780367739911 0367739917political psychology?e�l�v_�Y��e8^u;m-N�vR�t^?e�l:g�gThe Beginning Of Politics*Youthful Political Agency In Everyday Life�The conventional wisdom according to which children s lives should be safe from adult concerns tends to situate them categorically outside the political.

Alternatively, political skills and competences may be seen to develop gradually through political socialization. Both views are challenged in recent scholarship on youthful politics beyond the formal, adult-centered political world.

The book examines why, in some contexts, individuals consider something as evident and relevant for their action while others perceive them as nonsense or simply as  fake news . As such, the book follows a research perspective based on a concept emphasizing that the core function of knowledge is related to the selection and integration of data and other information which give them substance. Taking an interpretive political science perspective to knowledge, the book overcomes particular deficiencies of policy learning concepts where the development of an understanding of  reality is thematized in a way that supposedly decrypts everyday processes through which individuals understand  reality and (re)orient their actions to intersubjective processes. 9780367497033 0367497034 -N�V�v�y�eN Ns^I{!Ethnicity And Inequality In China9Routledge Research On The Politics And Sociology Of China4This book analyses the behaviour of ethnic minority groups in china using the first comprehensive national dataset dedicated to capturing the socio-economic profile of ethnic minorities: the china household ethnicity survey (ches).Managing ethnic diversity in china has become an increasingly important subject, especially against the backdrop of the nation s rampant economic growth and changing institutional behaviour.

It outlines the advent, after industrial capitalism, of a new phase of the capitalist system in which the value of cognitive labour becomes dominant. In this framework, the central stakes of capital valorisation and forms of property are directly based on the control and privatization of the production of collective knowledge. Here, the transformation of knowledge itself, into a commodity or a fictitious capital, is analyzed.Building on this foundation, the authors outline their concept of "commonfare." this idea of commonfare implies, as a prerequisite, the social re-appropriation of the gains arising from the exploitation of those social relations which are the basis of accumulation today. This re-appropriation does not necessarily lead to the transition from private to public ownership but it does make it necessary to distinguish between common goods and the commonwealth. 9780367671518 0367671514NWS'k,{�N!kNLu'Yb�v@\���V?Local Dimensions Of The Second World War In Southeastern Europe�This book deals with the second world war in southeastern europe from the perspective of conditions on the ground during the conflict.

Written as part of a new, critical focus in suicidology, this volume moves away from the dominant, strictly scientific understanding of suicide as the result of a mental disorder, and towards positioning suicide as an anthropologically salient, community-driven phenomenon. Written by a leading researcher in the field, this volume presents a conception of suicide as culturally scripted, and it demonstrates how suicide becomes a cultural idiom of distress that for some can become a normative option. 9780367026592 9780367730390 0367730391�Ǐ>y:S�QZ��RۏL��^%`�QY�9_'`�~T�e�l1Emergency Preparedness Through Community Cohesion"An Integral Approach To Resilience Jean Parker<This book is a revision of the author s original doctoral thesis on emergency preparedness through community radio in north indian villages into a widening array of possible reapplications in other community development fields. The author expands on the process of transforming emergency preparedness education through community media in rural north india and applies this to the development of community-prosperity, defined simply as human and planetary well-being, anywhere in the world. A new theoretical framework is presented which combines the pivotal integral worlds approach developed by lessem and schieffer with critical theory, thus exploring a new way to envision and implement social change, leading to innovation and social transformation.This book introduces the term "constructive resilience," which is a type of community-building that occurs alongside dominant societal structures that are either oppressive or ineffective.

Although the process of globalization is not new, its current manifestation and consequences are. At the same time, there is a growing recognition of the importance of community, identity and belonging. These two facts have generally been understood to be fundamentally in tension, both theoretically and descriptively. This book seeks to resolve this tension, and then draw out the implications for a theory of global justice and an understanding of the value and purpose of community. Importantly, the book argues, not only does an acceptance of the significance of the fact of globalization and the importance of community call for cosmopolitan duties and obligations, but it also calls into question the legitimacy and justification of the traditional nation-state. 9780367207298 9780367736187 0367736187�g�^�~_N�~�s�N�N�v��SO�z�/g0Gk�e�^̑N�P!Q%Constructing The Viennese Modern BodyArt, Hysteria, And The PuppetNathan Timpano�This book takes a new, interdisciplinary approach to analyzing modern viennese visual culture, one;informed by austro-german theater, contemporary medical treatises centered on hysteria, and an original examination of dramatic gestures in expressionist artworks.

It follows the entire chain of democratic responsiveness, starting from the translation of citizen preferences into voting behaviour, up to patterns of decision-making and policy implementation. Many european democracies have experienced considerable decentralisation over the past few decades. This book explores the key virtues which may accompany this trend, such as regional-level political authorities performing better in understanding and implementing citizens preferences. It also examines how, on the other hand, decentralisation can come at a price, especially since the resulting multi-level structures may create several new obstacles to democratic representation, including information, responsibility and accountability problems. 9780367729271 036772927X �N2m�e8nNS_MR�Current Issues In Asian TourismHThis comprehensive volume was put together in response to the growing amount of research on tourism in< asia and an increasing number of authors from asian countries.

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. 9780367733513 036773351XWS�N�v^��klSW��N�hQt0�V�[N��V#Decolonising Heritage In South Asia.The Global, The National And The Transnational:This volume cross-examines the stability of heritage as a concept. It interrogates the past which materialises through multi-layered narratives on monuments and other objects that sustain cultural diversity. It seeks to understand how interpretations of  monuments as  texts ;are affected at the local level of experience, even as institutions such as unesco work to globalise and fix constructs of stable and universal heritage. Shifting away from a largely eurocentric concept associated with architecture and monumental archaeology, this book reassesses how local and regional heritage needs to be balanced with the global and transnational. It argues that material objects and monuments are not static embodiments of culture but are, rather, a medium through which identity, power and society are produced and reproduced. 9780367671167 0367671166�~NmƖ�NhQtS�Y7h'`N9_'`#Economic Clusters And GlobalizationDiversity And Resilience�This volume shows that in today s globalized world, clusters are an important factor in explaining the different growth rates of firms, cities and regions.

Mass photography: collective histories of everyday life assesses the potential of these popular moment-in-time projects by examining their current day prevalence and their historical predecessors. Through archival research and interviews with organisers and participants, it examines, for the first time, the vast photographic collections resulting from such projects, analysing their structures and systems, their aims and objectives, and their claims and promises. The central case study is the 55,000 photographs submitted to one day for life in 1987, which aimed, in its own time, to be  the biggest photographic event the world had ever seen . 9780367739096 0367739097korean studies g��NNS�N:S�W�[hQ1North Korea And Northeast Asian Regional SecurityWith its unstable and intermittent nuclear weapon project, and the recent leadership succession issue, democratic people s republic of korea (dprk) has been a source of insecurity for the past decade in this region, in addition to the delicate international relations among the powerful china, united states, japan, and russia. The essence of dprk issue lies in the instability and uncertainty of nuclear development that even the slightest miscalculation by any one power could disturb the sensitive balance of relationships, creating a butter�y effect with a catastrophic result.Drawing on various perspectives on the interaction over dprk and other regional powers, this volume seeks to explore the role of dprk in northeast asia, and its implication to regional security as a whole. The volume does not confirm a particular position over dprk s nuclear showdown; rather it invites scholars to provide assessments from the viewpoints of neighbouring powers in order to present a more complete understanding of the leading issue in northeast asia. 9781138828551 9780367733155 0367733153?e�lt��NhQtlPL��R�͑��lQqQ���W*Political Theory And Global Climate ActionRecasting The Public Sphere Idil Boran�From around the world, cities and regions, civil society networks and businesses, nongovernmental organizations and institutions for research and learning, and many others, are taking action on climate change. The role of these nonstate and substate actors is increasingly being recognized in the new facilitative climate regime. Political theory to date has been surprisingly silent about the scale and prospects of these actions for low-carbon, climate-resilient, and sustainable transformations. Idil boran argues provocatively for the need for a widened scope of vision, one that has a broader public life of climate action at its centre. While acknowledging the role of the state and the multilateral process, boran maintains that social transformation is as deeply and more continuously influenced by the engagement of a wide range of actors below and above the state, whose actions are often locally anchored and inescapably interwoven across borders. 9780367736491 0367736497Routledge �|�~�R����f[Kb�Q9The Routledge Handbook Of Systemic Functional Linguistics6828The routledge handbook of systemic functional linguistics brings together internationally renowned scholars of systemic functional linguistics (sfl) to provide a space for critical examination of the key tenets underpinning sfl theory.

Political leadership at the local level has attracted growing attention in recent years in parallel with reforms of local government and of the municipal administration as well as the debate on a shift from government to governance. But this debate is mainly focused on single leaders, i.E. Mayors or executive officers. Considering the power triangle of (i) the mayor, (ii) the municipal administration (executive officers) and (iii) the council, it is surprising that councillors have gained little interest so far. The chapters start from a common conceptual framework. They start from the hypothesis that the role perception as well as the behaviour of councillors cannot be conceived of being determined directly by (i) both formal and informal institutional structures as well as by (ii) personal characteristics. 9781138797369 9783030278625 303027862X�y_Fz�e�gDQ_O��b0>yON�V�[Leaving The Muslim BrotherhoodSelf, Society And The StateMustafa MenshawyThe book offers a processual and discursive perspective on how individuals exit the muslim brotherhood.

Webb2Despite its economic impact, understanding what shaped emerging economies success seems to be a mystery. These complexities are compounded by fast moving technologies, such as the increased usage of artificial intelligence (ai) and the internet of things (iot). These new technologies have a social impact, but it is how these impacts are developed and managed by people and companies that is significant. Similarly, it is important to investigate how the uncertainties and intangible factors are dealt with and how businesses can utilize innovative approaches to become adaptive in emerging market economies. Research is needed to determine how actors or businesses interact to shape and define either new institutions, new industries, or new innovation to meet the need of potential customers in emerging economies. 9780367185428 0367185423hinduism S_�N\t=ON^y#W�e,g"Contemporary Yoga And Sacred TextsRoutledge Studies In Religion�Yoga is practiced in ashrams, gyms, meeting rooms and living rooms right across the world. This widespread participation in yoga has led to myriad forms being developed, but within each community there are still central tenants that are often distributed in written form. This book brings fresh clarity to the role, status, and functions of texts in contemporary yoga communities, and shows how and why these texts are then labeled as sacred and spiritually meaningful. Bringing together a diverse group of international scholars from various fields in religious studies, the book<  sets out the exegetical, hermeneutical, historical, and socio-cultural significance of written texts in contemporary yoga communities. It investigates the canonization and sacralization of a wide selection of written texts, such as patanjali s yoga sutra, the bhagavad gita, hatha yoga pradipika, upanishads, asana and related teaching manuals, and even the christian and jewish bible, within contemporary yoga communities.

Regets; Seth Sanders; Phanindra V. Wunnava�In 1965, a family-reunification policy for admitting immigrants to the united states replaced a system that chose immigrants based on their national origin. With this change, a 40-year hiatus in asian immigration ended. Today, over three-quarters of us immigrants originate from asia and latin america. Two issues that dominate discussions of us immigration policy are the progress of post-reform immigrants and their contributions to the us economy.This book focuses on the earnings and human capital investment of asian immigrants to the us after 1965. In addition, it provides a primer on studying immigrant economic assimilation, by explaining economists methodology to measure immigrant earnings growth and the challenges with this approach. The book also illustrates strategies to more fully use census data such as how to measure family income and how to use  panel data that is embedded in the census.The book is a historical study as well as an extremely timely work from a policy angle. The passage of the 1965 immigration and nationality act set the united states apart among economically developed countries due to the weight given to family unification. 9783030603984 3030603989$\aSfW�]WW�0Wtf[�Pt��sŖ�N�N#��N:N�W@x�v�s�X�|^y%Indigenous Geographies In The Yucatan?Learning From The Responsibility-based Maya Environmental EthosSpringerbriefs In Geography Miguel SiouiZThis book is part of a broader attempt to decolonize colonial histories and understandings about indigenous peoples and their relationships with their territories, and argues that the land ethos of "being part of the land," specifically among the mayan community of xuilub (yucatan), mexico, is guided by the cultural precept of 'responsibility-based' thinking. The work uniquely adds much needed insights into 'responsibility-based' thinking for land-use practices, and develops a theoretical framework for assessing historical impacts on indigenous cultures and livelihoods.

Digital storytelling offers opportunities for authentic academic and non-academic literacy learning across a multitude of genres. It is easily accessible to most members of society and has the potential to transform the boundaries of traditional education. As concepts around traditional literacy education evolve and become more culturally and linguistically relevant and responsive, the connections between digital storytelling and disciplinary literacy warrant considered exploration.Connecting disciplinary literacy and digital storytelling in k-12 education develops a conceptual framework around pedagogical connections to digital storytelling within k-12 disciplinary literacy practices.692 9780367191894 036719189X�lpQAmL�5uP[�PN 1970-2020��eS�S*Popular Polish Electronic Music, 1970 2020A Cultural History5Routledge Russian And East European Music And Culture Ewa Mazierska:;polish electronic music 1970-2020 offers a cultural history of popular polish electronic music, from its beginning in the late 1960/early 1970s till the present day, in the context of polish economic, social and political history and the history of popular music in this country.

This concept has interested researchers for generations. Economists have sought to predict and measure firm growth using a host of different variables, while strategic management scholars depict growth as the result of clever analyses and rational resource exploitation. Entrepreneurship scholars - ever engrossed by successful start-ups - have pondered why growth sometimes comes fast and sometimes never at all, while the field of business history has given countless examples of growing firms in a range of different settings. Yet despite research across fields, our knowledge of how growth in a firm actually comes about is limited and we still know little about the process.This book offers a new reading of economist edith penrose s the theory of the growth of the firm. The bold statement is that although penrose s work - across fields and generations - is amongst the most quoted on firm growth, the basic points of her work have yet to be realized and explored empirically. 9783030241605 3030241602nineteenth/century literature/�z19N�~�ef[�v�N?e�l�~Nm0R�~Nmf[��V6e�v>yOIFrom Political Economy To Economics Through Nineteenth-century LiteratureReclaiming The Social)Elaine Hadley; Audrey Jaffe; Sarah Winter�Focusing on the transition from political economy to economics, this volume seeks to restore social content to economic abstractions through readings of nineteenth-century british and american literature.

Such an approach allows a more complex understanding of his critical-philosophical program to emerge, which includes his accounts of reason, politics and freedom as well as subjectivity and intersubjectivity, or sociabilities.

Wittgenstein, whilst a key figure in twentieth-century philosophy, remains peripheral to the field of translation studies and wilson argues that his later work, because it deals with the nature of language and meaning, is potentially of great significance and an awareness of this can change translation, both literary and non-literary. Wittgenstein s life and thought is treated in the introduction, where it is shown how his methods can be applied to areas outside philosophy.

Through a pragmatic perspective, this book focuses on both digital and nondigital maps and establishes an unprecedented dialogue between the field of map studies and object-oriented ontology.

Parties have traditionally been studied by political scientists in their organizational features and in relation to the analysis of related topics such as party systems and electoral systems. Little attention, however, was paid until recently to the normative assumptions that underlie partisanship and party politics. Are parties desirable for democratic politics? how should liberal democracies deal with extremist and/or anti-democratic parties? do religious parties undermine the secular distinction between religion and politics and is that bad for liberal democracies? these are only some of the many questions that political theorists had left unanswered for a long time.

Atkinson�Semiotic analysis and public policy evaluates several key areas of public policy that are dependent on narrative, naming, sign, and branding to create meaning. Semiotic analysis, drawing on the work of saussure, peirce, and others, allows for creation of a case-oriented model of brand versus product, and of medium compared with message. Using a critical habermasian lens, atkinson convincingly exposes approaches focusing too heavily on instrumentality and rhetoric that claims a resolution of complex societal dilemmas. Rooted in the literature on public policy and semiotics, atkinson creates an opportunity to delve more fully into the creation of narratives and meaning in policy, and the origins and maintenance of public programs. Evaluation of such programs shows various levels of disconnect between popular understanding of public considerations, political outcomes, and what results from the;administrative/regulatory process in support of the law. 9780815383475 9780367728939 0367728931'`+R�[hQN N�[hQ�T/�e�kl;NIN�v�[hQ;���NsYCg;NINr^��!Gendering Security And Insecurity;Post/neocolonial Security Logics And Feminist Interventions Security studies and international relations have conventionally relegated gendered analysis to the margins of academic concern, most commonly through the  women in or  women and politics and ir discourse.

In doing so, the collection as a whole troubles the ubiquitous concept and practices of  (in)security and their effects on differentially positioned subjects. By gendering (in)securities in  states of exception and other paradigms of government related to it, especially in postcolonial and neocolonial contexts, the book provides an approach that allows us to study the complex and interrelated security logics, which constitute the messy realities of different  and particularly vulnerable  subjects lives. 9781119700739 1119700736RRON�v�[hQ:�NRR0R��Q ��bQ�~�[hQ��eQ`O�vlQ�SMStart-up Secure: Baking Cybersecurity Into Your Company From Founding To ExitChris CastaldoWThe book will cover everything an entrepreneur and venture capitalist should know when building a secure company in today's world.

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 on the human factor. Einstein took the stand adopted by western philosophers and mathematicians, namely that reality is something independent of the mind and the human factor. Tagore, on the other hand, adopted the opposite view.

This book lends a supporting voice to the economic and social empowerment of women globally, focusing on the real causes and the unpredictable nature of the ongoing conflicts surrounding the issue. The authors bring to the forefront problems of development within various regions and the implementation of projects, which address the state of women, inequality and risks, that are inimical to their participation in the economy. Emphasis is laid on why women should be permitted access to the many opportunities in information technology and exchange, partnership growth and networking in this digital era. The oppressive policies of turkey are scrutinized to unravel the dangers they pose to the corporate existence of women in the modern world. Furthermore, this book centers on the deliberation on regional politics and issues on gender and women s empowerment in modern turkey whilst comparing with other countries. 9780367731625 0367731622 20N�~aƋ�v9e�S.Altered Consciousness In The Twentieth Century�The twentieth century saw an unprecedented spike in the study of altered states of consciousness. New ascs, such as those associated with lsd and psilocybin mushrooms, were cultivated and studied, while older ascs were given new classifications: out-of-body experiences, near-death experiences, psychokinesis, extrasensory perception. Altered consciousness in the twentieth century analyses these different approaches and methodologies, and includes exciting new research into neglected areas. This volume investigates the representation of ascs in the culture of the twentieth century and examines the theoretical models that attempt to explain them. The international contributors critically examine a variety of ascs, including precognition, near-death experiences, telepathy, new age  channelling , contact with aliens and ufos, the use of alcohol and entheogens, analysing both the impact of ascs on the culture and how cultural and technological changes influenced ascs. 9780367512279 0367512270(��ŋ�T�[�e�v܀)R��N?��e"}ASN0R?��e"}ASNN�vaS�e��)R�N�sCg 1252-1350"The Triumph Of An Accursed Lineage<Kingship In Castile From Alfonso X To Alfonso Xi (1252-1350)'Studies In Medieval History And CultureFernando Arias Guill�n!The triumph of an accursed lineage analyses kingship in castile between 1252 and 1350, with a particular focus on the pivotal reign of alfonso xi (r. 1312 1350).This century witnessed significant changes in the ways in which the castilian monarchy constructed and represented its power in this period. The ideas and motifs used to extoll royal authority, the territorial conceptualisation of the kingdom, the role queens and the royal family played, and the interpersonal relationship between the kings and the nobility were all integral to this process. Ultimately, this book addresses how alfonso xi, a member of an accursed lineage who rose to the throne when he was an infant, was able to end the internal turmoil which plagued castile since the 1270s and become a paradigm of successful kingship.

Examining the cultural, socio-economic and political backdrop against which sufism gained prominence, it looks at its influence in both the institutions for religious learning and popular piety. The study seeks to broaden the observed space of sufism in ottoman egypt by placing it within its imperial and international context, highlighting on one hand the specificities of egyptian sufism, and on the other the links that it maintained with other spiritual traditions that influenced it. Studying sufism as a global phenomenon, taking into account its religious, cultural, social and political dimensions, this book also focuses on the education of the increasing number of aspirants on the sufi path, as well as on the social and political role of the sufi masters in a period of constant and often violent political upheaval. 9780367135898 9780367729080 0367729083-N\ONё��N�~NmqS:g� ^J�Hh�O#Sme Finance And The Economic CrisisThe Case Of Greece Alina Hyz�This book analyses the financing problems of greek small and medium-sized enterprises (smes), within a liberalized financial system and within an economic environment of fiscal and monetary constraints. Using recent data covering a ten-year period, the main aim of the research is to explain the interdependence between the situation of the banking sector generally and that of small and medium enterprises.The author argues that the reluctance of banks to lend to greek companies because of the strict financing constraints, due to the national debt crisis, serves to exacerbate the cycle of economic recession. This factor seriously undermines the efforts of greek companies to develop growth opportunities, and negatively affects their competitiveness as well as their ability to strengthen their market position. The author examines the supply and demand aspect of the problem: there is lower demand for lending due to the decline of demand for goods and services as well as a tightening of banks credit standards, whilst on the supply side, the deteriorating financial situation of banks and their willingness to avoid increasing risk are important contributing factors. 9780367216702 0367216701Nb O\��S�S��V�[�vޏ�~'`N?e�l�Si�Zaire6Continuity And Political Change In An Oppressive StateWinsome J Leslie�This book describes the historical setting of zaire and focuses on economic and political developments during the mobutu era.

It then goes on to explore the extent to which these policies have contributed to national integration whilst providing a valuable discussion on the complexities involved in developing a consistent policy framework. Drawing on research surveys of malay proficiency amongst ethnic chinese people, it ultimately demonstrates how the unification of education streams has contributed to the spread of the malay language as a major medium of inter-ethnic communication within the chinese community. 9781138390782 9780367670818 036767081X'`+RN|^?Q�v�bt�sYCg;NIN|^?QYe���vPg�e�e�l#Gender And Care With Young Children9A Feminist Material Approach To Early Childhood EducationB. Denise Hodgins�This book is an exploration of how children, educators, and things become implicated in gendered caring practices. Drawing on a collaborative research study with early childhood educators and young children, the author examines what an engagement with human-and non-human relationality does to complicate conversations about gender and care. By employing a feminist material analysis of early childhood education, this book rethinks dominant euro-western individualist pedagogies in order to reposition them within a relationality framework. The analysis illuminates the political and ethical embeddedness of early childhood education and the understanding that gendering and caring emerge with/in a complex web of many relations. 9781138499652 9780367738778 0367738775 globalization`Snc�hQtЏ�ROccupy!

Certification schemes set standards through intramarket private and multi-stakeholder mechanisms, and while third-party verification is often compulsory, certification schemes are regulated voluntarily rather than legislatively. This volume examines the intricacies of certification schemes and the issues they seek to address and provides the context within which each scheme operates. While a distinction between sustainability certifications and extra-markets or intrabusiness codes of conducts is made, the book also demonstrates how both are often working towards similar sustainability objectives. Each chapter highlights a different sector, including animal welfare, biodiversity, biofuels, coffee, fisheries, flowers, forest management and mining, with the contributions offering interdisciplinary perspectives and utilising a wide range of methodologies. 9780367729493 0367729490  O�k)R�N-�2m�v�eS?eV{ Cultural Policy In Ibero-america�This book provides a broad overview of the development of ibero-american cultural policy in an important and innovative way.

The duel-process of internationalization of multinational corporations (mncs), through globalisation and regionalisation, has helped mncs to increase their market expansion and improve the capabilities of innovation and learning. By creating various forms of international strategic alliances (isas), mncs have become structurally more complex and geographically more dispersed. As a result, mncs in general and isas in particular face the challenges of discerning blurred organisational boundaries, reconfiguring the control mechanisms, integrating diversified resources, and coordinating distributed activities in time and space.Research in organisation behaviour indicates that boundary spanners play critical yet unspecified roles and functions in managing cross-boundary relationships. A core boundary spanning function is to build trust relationships. 9780367731359 0367731355political history_�����_�v�eS�hQtWS�e�vw�v�YXTO The Culture Of Dissenting Memory%Truth Commissions In The Global SouthYThis volume deals with the manifold ways in which histories are debated and indeed historicity and historiography themselves are interrogated via the narrative modes of the truth commissions. It traces the various medial responses (memoirs, fiction, poetry, film, art) which have emerged in the wake of the truth commissions.The 1990s and the 2000s saw a spate of so-called truth commissions across the global south. From the inaugural truth commissions in post-juntas 1980s latin america, to the truth and reconciliation commission set up by the incoming post-apartheid government in south africa and the twinned gacaca courts and national unity and reconciliation commission in rwanda and that in indigenous australia, various truth commissions have sought to lay bare human rights abuses. The chapters in this volume explore how truth commissions crystallized a long tradition of dissenting and resisting cultures of memorialization in the public sphere across the global south and provided a significant template for contemporary attempts to work through episodes of violence and oppression across the region. 9780367671334 0367671336children and youth���v�y�v6r�N��^�[�e�v�X��vsQ�lImprisoned FathersResponding To A Growing Concern�This volume specifically examines current concerns about imprisoned fathers and highlights best practices with a group of children and parents who present significant vulnerabilities.

Consequently, impact evaluation of qm effectiveness is indispensable because it generates the knowledge required for quality (management) improvement.The introductory chapter elucidates the motivation and objective of impact analyses of qm in heis and provides an overview of the volume s other contributions.

Levine reviews how reason and emotion operated in historical movements such as the enlightenment, romanticism and 1960s counterculture, to conclude that a successful society would restore human connection and foster compassion in economics and politics, by equally utilizing reason and emotion.Integrating discussion on classic and contemporary neurological studies and using allegory, the book lays out the potential for societal change through compassion and would be of interest to psychologists concerned with social implications of their fields, philosophy students, social activists, and religious leaders. 9780367856847 9780367730604 036773060XRoutledge W3�vQ?e�lKb�Q*The Routledge Handbook Of Turkish PoliticsThe routledge handbook of turkish politics pulls together contributions from many of the world s leading scholars on different aspects of turkey.

In an evolving and competitive university environment, along with the emergence of various technologies and substantial changes in scientific communication, university management has reached a turning point. Academic libraries are facing a paradigm shift in the role they need to play to achieve the research objectives of universities. Research support services in academic libraries have evolved as a response to these changes. They are heterogeneous, adapt to their university culture, adopt different points of view, take different approaches in their organizational structures, and include a diverse catalog of activities. Having an overview of different experiences will allow libraries to adopt best practices, redefine services, and even establish new management and collaboration models. 9781799845461 9783030599119 3030599116contemporary literature��V�vKQ̑�e��Z�͑�e�`a��OYKristeva In AmericaRe-imagining The Exceptional;Pivotal Studies In The Global American Literary ImaginationCarol Mastrangelo Bov�<This pivot studies the influence of julia kristeva s work on american literary and film studies.

Through a focus on the contemporary photographic and cinematic forms of this figure and a critical mobilisation of its anthropological complexity, this book offers a new critical understanding of this classical aesthetic motif as a way to explore the relevance that doubling, fantasy and simulation hold in our contemporary culture.Quintieri explores the figure of the inanimate human double as an  inhuman partner , reflecting on contemporary visuality as the field of a hypermodern, post-oedipal aesthetics. Through a series of case studies that blur traditional boundaries between practices (photography, performance, sculpture, painting, documentary) and between genres (comedy, drama, fairy tale), quintieri puts in contrast the new function of the double and its plays of simulations on the background of the capitalist injunction to enjoy. 9780367445027 9780367731076 036773107X�ebgRLkgR 1661-1706"English Dramatick Opera, 1661 1706Andrew R.

Andrew walkling argues that, while the musical elements of this form are crucial to its definition and history, the origins of the genre lie principally in a tradition of spectacular stagecraft that first manifested itself in england in the mid-1660s as part of a hitherto unidentified dramatic sub-genre, to which walkling gives the name "spectacle-tragedy". 0367569353 9780367621544 0367621541#�cؚ�yf[0�b/g0�] zNpef[Y7h'`�vYe^Ye����^(uyb$R�vT�s�N�yf[Yef[�l.Teacher Education To Enhance Diversity In Stem/Applying A Critical Postmodern Science Pedagogy$Routledge Research In Stem Education?A.

Drawing on evolutionary biology, she explores the effect of time on the organization of matter and the development of biological life. She argues that factoring in the relentless forward movement of time throws new light on the ever-growing complication of social life, and also on political struggle.Grosz juxtaposes the work of darwin, nietzsche and bergson. Each theorises time as an active phenomenon with specific effects, with a profound impact on understandings of the body in relation to time. She shows how their concepts of life, evolution, and becoming are manifest in the work of deleuze and irigaray.Throughout the nick of time, grosz emphasizes the political and cultural imperative to fundamentally rethink time: the more clearly we understand our temporal location as beings straddling the past and the future without the security of a stable and abiding present, the more transformation becomes conceivable. 9780367000707 0367000709Routledge pS�^YeN�Wcw�_sQ�|Kb�Q3The Routledge Handbook Of Hindu-christian RelationsRoutledge Handbooks In Religion552�The tension between the two historical realities, hinduism as an ancient indian religion and christianity as a religion associated with foreign power and colonialism, continues to animate hindu-christian relations today.

Andragogy is one part of the broader international field of adult education, human resource development, and lifelong learning, thus serving the advancement and connection needs of adult learners, organizational development, and lifelong learning in areas such as higher education, business, military, corporate training, healthcare, executive leadership, courtroom practice, religious life, and human resource development.Facilitating adult and organizational learning through andragogy: a history, philosophy, and major themes investigates the history, philosophy, and major themes of andragogy and how they may contribute to helping practitioners to design and facilitate adult and organizational learning. 9781799839378 1799839370 03674072218Advances In Human Services And Public Health (2475-6571)L�dia Oliveira 9780367716943 0367716941 �e�Q�Q�NQg�^�v@�NZZ�Y,Kinship And Marriage In A New Guinea Village H. Ian Hogbin�The economic and political systems, legal code and religious beliefs of the people of the new guinea village of busama were analysed by h. Ian hogbin in his earlier work, transformation scene (1951). In this new study founded on field work carried out at intervals over a seven year period, he is concerned primarily with the individual in his relations with the kinship structure. He takes a typical busama through a full span of life, from birth through infancy, childhood, adolescence, and marriage to maturity and death; and he shows how each stage in the individual's life involves a change in his kinship relationships and responsibilities. This approach gives the professional anthropologist a set of carefully presented data analysed in line with the contemporary emphasis on seeing the relations between kin in the context of the local community, and it also offers the general reader an enjoyable and authentic account of the intimacies of melanesian life. 9780367409678 0367409674 ͑�e�N�~W/Oyr�؞�Reintroducing Robert K.

Founded in the sociological classics but developing a modern approach to the advancement of theory and research methodology, merton s thought helped to construct modern sociology in its coverage of many of the social institutional areas of contemporary society. Recovering and analysing the system of <  structural analysis which merton progressively developed - a system largely overlooked by the tendency among commentators to stereotype him as a  functionalist - the author considers the applications of this approach to various substantive fields, particularly science and criminal justice, and examines the effect of merton s later  sociological semantics on his overall schema.

Alain de janvry and elisabeth sadoulet identify seven key dimensions of development: growth, poverty, vulnerability, inequality, basic needs, sustainability, and quality of life, and use them to structure the contents of the text. The book gives a historical perspective on the evolution of thought in development. It uses theory and empirical analysis to present readers with a full picture of how development works, how its successes and failures can be assessed, and how alternatives can be introduced. The authors demonstrate how diagnostics, design of programs and policies, and impact evaluation can be used to seek new solutions to the suffering and violence caused by development failures. 9780367456474 9780367717681 0367717689?Q�z�O�b�Ye^N?Q�z�btNN�N�XcWSChild Protection1A Guide For Teachers And Child Care Professionals Freda Briggs And Russell Hawkinsv.A valuable resource book for teachers, child care workers and school administrators on preventing, identifying and handling cases of child abuse and neglect.

In fact, there is not a single unique philosophy behind the organizational research of the aesthetic dimension of organizational life. Organizational theory and aesthetic philosophies will illustrate and discuss this complex phenomenon, and it will be dedicated to highlight the philosophical basis of the study of aesthetics, art and design in organization. The book distinguishes three principal "philosophical sensibilities" amongst these philosophies: aesthetic, hermeneutic and performative philosophical sensibility. Each of them is described and critically assessed through the work of philosophers, art theorists, sociologists and social scientists who represent its main protagonists. In this way, the reader will be conducted through the variety of philosophies that constitute a reference for aesthetics and design in organization. 9780367734459 0367734451 �1u5r�XPN�xvzN�Oo`cWS Free Jazz Jeff Schwartz�Free jazz: a research and information guide offers carefully selected and annotated sources on free jazz, with comprehensive coverage of english-language academic books, journal articles, and dissertations, and selective coverage of trade books, popular periodicals, documentary films, scores, masters theses, online texts, and materials in other languages.Free jazz will be a major reference tool for students, faculty, librarians, artists, scholars, critics, and serious fans navigating this literature. 9781138232679 9780367671709 0367671700?e�l�S1r������1uNs^I{�vl;NPolitical Fraternity%Democracy Beyond Freedom And Equality Angel Puyol�Fraternity is a feeling, and a moral virtue, but fraternity is also a political concept. The french revolution proclaimed an ethical and political ideal with its three principles: liberty, equality and fraternity. Since then, western political philosophy has gone to great lengths to analyse the liberty and equality, but has ignored, and even disdained, the third part of the revolutionary triad: fraternity. Forgetting or underestimating fraternity as a political category is unjustifiable. Political fraternity can help us to overcome some of the main problems with liberal egalitarianism and theories of liberty in current social and political thought, and it contributes to a better understanding of the real significance of justice and democracy. 9781138653795 9781799855941 1799855945\f[`Nb�gNf[`N�vh�[�^w�eg�vċ0O�]wQGAssessment Tools For Mapping Learning Outcomes With Learning Objectives G. R. Sinha5In educational institutions, outcome-based education (obe) remains crucial in measuring how certain teaching techniques are impacting the students ability to learn. Currently, these changes in students are mapped by analyzing the objectives and outcomes of certain learning processes. International accreditation agencies and quality assessment networks are all focusing on mapping between outcomes and objectives. The need of assessment tools arises that can provide a genuine mapping in the global context so that students or learners can achieve expected objectives.Assessment tools for mapping learning outcomes with learning objectives is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the implementation of quality assessment methods for measuring the outcomes of select learning processes on students. 9780367733704 0367733706�S�m;NIN0�[SON�N� NX[(W�v��_#Eliminativism, Objects, And PersonsThe Virtues Of Non-existence Jiri Benovsky1In eliminativism, objects, and persons, jiri benovsky defends the view that he doesn't exist. In this book, he also defends the view that this book itself doesn't exist. But this did not prevent him to write the book, and although in benovsky's view you don't exist either, this does not prevent you to read it. Benovsky defends a brand of non-exceptionalist eliminativism. Some eliminativists, typically focusing on ordinary material objects such as chairs and hammers, make exceptions, for instance for blue whales (that is, living beings) or for persons (that is, conscious organisms). Benovsky takes one by one all types of allegedly existing objects like chairs, whales, and persons and shows that from the metaphysical point of view they are more trouble than they are worth we are much better off without them. 97803670002196���'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,[r%m'Yf[,��wt�]'Yf[ 9780367471323 0367471329a'Y)RS_�N?e�lItaly s Contemporary PoliticsEuropa Introduction To...James L. NewellBIn early 2020 italy was a country whose political parties stood as significant obstacles in the way of resolution of its social and economic problems. The purpose of this book is to help the reader to understand how italian politics had reached this point. It does this by tracing the most significant process< es of political, economic and social change to have marked italian history in recent years back to their roots in the italian political system as it emerged at the end of the second world war. Starting with the restoration of democracy, the volume discusses the post-war party system and how it came under increasing pressure from the mid-1970s. From there it discusses the political upheavals of the early 1990s and the transformations they led to, the rise and fall of silvio berlusconi, and the watershed election of 2018. 9783487158914 3487158914neuerscheinungen�e���1502015t^�g�g�PNt��f[Ot^OGegliederte ZeitA15.

Persuasion has variously been seen as an embarrassment to the discipline, a target for anti-marketing sentiment, the source of marketing s value in the modern organisation, a mysterious black box inside the otherwise rational and logical endeavour of enterprise, and a rather insignificant part of the marketing programme. This book argues that this multifarious reputation for persuasion within marketing stems from the influence of two quite oppositional paradigms  the scientific and the magico-rhetorical  that ebb and flow across the discourses of its discipline and practice.Constructing an interface between original, challenging close readings of texts from the beginnings of the western rhetorical tradition and an examination of the ways in which marketing has set about describing itself, this text argues for a sophistic interpretation of marketing. From this perspective, marketing is understood as providing intermediary services to facilitate the continuing exchange of attention and regard between firm/client and stakeholders. 9781138667273 9780367620523 0367620529religious education�WcwYeؚI{Ye��-N�v>y:S�SN�:NlQqQ)R�v6R�[6R�^O}T2Community Engagement In Christian Higher Education2Enacting Institutional Mission For The Public Good&Routledge Research In Higher Education�Originally published as a special issue of christian higher education, this volume showcases diverse forms of community engagement work carried out by faith-based colleges and universities throughout the us.Acknowledging the rise of community engagement as a contemporary expression of a longstanding civic impulse, community engagement in christian higher education explores how religious mission and identity animate institutional practice across various forms of catholic and protestant higher education.

This represented a potential turning point on how economics should be thought and taught. Heterodox economics has played a prominent role in these discussions revolving around new economics thinking and pluralism in economics. Yet, its identity, aspirations, and pedagogy remain underexplored, contested, and somewhat opaque.This volume brings together sixteen interviews with leading economists to understand what heterodox economics is. How and why does an economist become heterodox? in which way do heterodox economists see themselves as  different from mainstream economics? the interviews shed light on what problems heterodox economists perceive in the mainstream; elucidate the different contexts under which they operate in higher education; and provide insights on their ontology and methodology. 9781138731950 9783030248178 3030248178aS\�l�KQ`�vus^0`�`Nq_�T�200hTt^�~�_͑�p�[�g'Karl Marx s Life, Ideas, And Influences)A Critical Examination On The Bicentenary*Shaibal Gupta; Marcello Musto; Babak Amini'Since the latest crisis of capitalism broke out in 2008, marx has been back infashion, and sometimes it seems that his ideas have never been as topical, or ascommanding of respect and interest, as they are today.

Interestingly, contemporary political protests are borne of both the right and left and are staged in both the global north and south. Globally, different instances of protest have drawn attention to the deep fissures which challenge the idea of globalisation as a force for peace. Given the diversity of these protests, it is necessary to examine the particular nature of grievances, the sort of change which is sought and the extent to which localised protest can have global implications. The contributions in this book draw on the theoretical work of hardt and negri, david graeber and judith butler, among others, in order explore the nature of hegemony, the occupy movement, the arab spring, the responses of authorities to protest and emotion and public performance in, and representation of, protest.%Lecture Notes In Networks And Systems SE-TP-0041 9780367728342 0367728346)��W-�e,g�_�]�eg�v\�^����)Hagi - A Feudal Capital In Tokugawa JapanPeter ArmstrongTThe western japanese city of hagi is the town in japan which has preserved the greatest level of tokugawa period (1600-1868) urban and architectural fabric. As such it is a major tourist destination for both japanese and non-japanese visitors. The city is also very important historically in that it was the capital of the feudal daimyo domain  choshu  which spearheaded the reform movement from the 1850s onwards which led to the overthrow of the tokugawa shogunate and the foundation of japan in its modern form. This book, rich in detail and very well illustrated, is both an urban and social history of this important town. It outlines the development of the layout of the city and its castle, relates this to the history of its lords, the mori family, and their place in japanese history; and sets hagi in the context of the wider choshu domain. 9781138477292 0367897911 9780367671297 0367671298feminist literature & theoryu`�bt�v&OtN�f[�S_�NsQ�Nu`sYCg;NIN�v����'The Ethics And Aesthetics Of Eco-caring&Contemporary Debates On Ecofeminism(s)�This book applies ecofeminist ethics to the realm of aesthetics, offering instances of how alternative configurations of the self, of nature and of non-human animals can go hand in hand with different and viable experiences and visions of environmental welfare.

While these allegories had been largely in balance throughout the early history of the city, increasingly during modernity, volume has overcome void in city-form. This volume investigates the pattern of benjamin's thinking and extends it to the larger psycho-cultural and urban contexts of various time periods, pointing to environ/mental progression in the unfolding of modernity. 9780367222239 036722223X��Lu N�v��V;NIN��yl0?e�lN���NTransnationalism At The Border"Migration, Politics And IdentitiesMarcos Estrada�This book explores the formation of transnational identities across border regions. Instead of focusing on long-distance forms of transnationalism, the book explores the interplay of cultures and identity formation amongst those who live in border regions. At a time when immigration is rarely out of the news, this book also considers how technology has facilitated the movement of people and information across borders, and looks ahead to the future of transnationalism.The concepts of widening borders and of proximal transnationalism, which describes the formation of transnationalism across borders, are illustrated using five case studies of shared borders, namely brazil-paraguay, us-mexico, us-canada, gibraltar-spain and pakistan-afghanistan. The book also demonstrates how international politics impacts border regions, for instance the rise of far-right politics in brazil and paraguay, the immigration rhetoric of the trump administration, and the implementation of brexit in the case of gibralter and spain. 9780367222246 0367222248 9780367732370 0367732378 �SOOl0�ylNpS�^�V�[)Adivasis, Migrants And The State In IndiaJagannath Ambagudia/This book looks at the contested relationship between adivasis or the indigenous peoples, migrants and the state in india.

Drawing on the ground experiences of the dandakaranya project  when bengali migrants from erstwhile east pakistan (now bangladesh) were rehabilitated in eastern and central india  the author traces the connection between resource scarcity and the emergence of naxalite politics in the region in tandem with the key role played by the state. He critically examines the way in which conflicts between these groups emerged and interacted, were shaped and realised through acts and agencies of various kinds, as well as their socio-economic, cultural and political implications. 9781138567719 9780367671570 0367671573 g�RR�eService Innovation Esam MustafaThis book looks at service innovation, service industries, and innovation performance in services.It seeks a broader explanation and understanding of services, service innovation and its performance, and the future of service innovation in different service industries.

The contributors also trace a changing set of key relations and alliances in development  those between business and consumers; ngos and celebrities; philanthropic organizations and the state; diaspora groups and transnational advocacy networks; ruling elites and productive capitalists; and between  new donors and developing country governments. Despite the diversity of these actors and alliances, several commonalities arise: they are often based on hybrid transnationalism and diffuse notions of development responsibility; rather than being new per se, they are newly being studied as engaging in practices that are now coming to be understood as  development ; and they are limited in their ability to act as agents of development by their lack of accountability or pro-poor commitment. 9780367732271 0367732270��?eV{NĉR:g�g�sQ.��g�'Agency In Language Policy And Planning:Critical Inquiries�This collection brings together theory and ethnographic research from a range of national contexts to offer unique insights into the nature of agency in language policy and planning. Situated within a broader sociological framework, the book explores agentive processes at work in case studies from around the world, engaging in discussions of such key themes as language and identity, language ideologies, linguistic diversity in education, and language revitalization. Each chapter examines the ways in which decisions made at both the local and national level impact language use and in turn, the dynamic relationship between language use, policy, and practice in these contexts.

Bringing together scholars from the social sciences, philosophy and theology, it seeks to bridge the gap between subject areas by focusing on real phenomena.Although these phenomena are studied by different disciplines, the editors demonstrate that it is also possible to study them from a common relational perspective that connects the different languages, theories and perspectives which characterize each discipline, by going beyond their differences to the core of reality itself. As an experimental collection that highlights the potential that exists for cross-disciplinary work, this volume will appeal to scholars across a range of field concerned with critical realist approaches to research, collaborative work across subjects and the manner in which disciplines can offer one another new insights. 9781138606326 9780367731052 0367731053�SpQ�~�[�r*YYeN�WcwYe�v9ei���V0R�S�p4The Qur'an's Reformation Of Judaism And ChristianityReturn To The Origins�This volume explores the relationship between the qur an;and the jewish and christian traditions,;considering aspects of continuity and reform.

Based on the research expertise of each of the authors (all identical twins in their own right), and vignettes from twins across the globe, this book describes the inner workings of the twin-world, showing how the twin-world creates experiences that are often more intense and intricately textured than those in the singleton-world. Chapters debunk myths surrounding twinship and analyze the developmental stages of the twin relationship as well as the effect of being a twin on one s mental health from different perspectives.

His music has found a listenership beyond the ageing constituency of  contemporary music . In nono s work, the audiences of sound art, improvisation, electronic, experimental and radical musics of many kinds find common cause with those concerned with the renewal of western art music. His work explores the individually and socially transformative role of music; its relationship with history and with language; the nature of the musical work as distributed through text, time, technology and individuals; the nature and performativity of the act of composition; and, above all, the role and nature of listening as a cultural activity. 97814094559746���'Yf[,�R�]/OKQ)R'Yf[,�T&O�k�N'Yf[�VfN�� 9780367732462 0367732467Routledge ��tN�RN�{tKb�Q6Routledge Handbook Of Football Business And ManagementSoccer is the world s most valuable sport, generating bigger revenues, as well as being watched and played by more people, than any other.

Cutting across disciplines, the book opens up the conceptual and empirical study of housing and home by exploring the coproduction of the concrete and the abstract, the intimate and the institutional, the experiential and the collective.Exploring diverse examples in australia and new zealand, contributors address the interleaving of money and materials in the digital commodity of real estate, the neoliberal invention of housing as a liquid asset and source of welfare provision, and the bundling of car and home in housing markets. The more-than-human relations of housing and home are articulated through the role of suburban nature in the making of australian modernity, the marketing of nature in waterfront urban renewal, the role of domestic territory in subversive social movements such as seasteading and tiny houses, and the search for home comfort through low-cost energy efficiency practices. 0367488302ZSir��N�Si��vcb��eNLu�v�e6R�^ 9780367720193 0367720191behavioural management|^?QL�:N�|^?QYe����vc�[�e�l ,{4HrYoung Children's Behaviour1Guidance Approaches For Early Childhood Educators Louise Porter(The book provides a comprehensive, yet practical discussion of guidance strategies that can be implemented in a variety of situations.

In the time since the images were taken they have been subjected to a perplexing variety of treatments: variously ignored, suppressed, distorted and above all exploited for propaganda purposes. With the use of many photographs, including some never before seen, this book traces the history of this process and asks whether the images can be true representations of the events they were depicting. Yet their provenance, janina struk argues, has been less important that the uses to which a wide range of political interests has put them, from the desperate attempts of the war-time underground to provide hard evidence of the death camps to the memorial museums of europe, the us and israel today. 0367370743 9780367739232 0367739232�k��21N�~RgN6R?eSO ,{2wS��r��?eCg�vh��sNcEN'`7Comparing Autocracies In The Early Twenty-first Century5Vol 2: The Performance And Persistence Of AutocraciesAuthoritarianism research has evolved into one of the fastest growing research fields in comparative politics. The newly awakened interest in autocratic regimes goes hand in hand with a lack of systematic research on the results of the political and substantive policy performance of variants of autocratic regimes. The contributions in this second volume of comparing autocracies are united by the assumption that the performance of political regimes and their persistence are related. Furthermore, autocratic institutions and the specific configurations of elite actors within authoritarian regime coalitions induce dictators to undertake certain policies, and that different authoritarian institutions are therefore an important piece of the puzzle of government performance in dictatorships. 9780415719445 9780367719029 0367719029�o'Y)R�N�SMR�SPrehistory Of AustraliaJohan Kamminga�Australia's human prehistory through more than 40,000 years is the challenging theme of this masterly survey. John mulvaney and johan kamminga bring together the discoveries and often controversial interpretations of six decades of archaeological research to reveal that across this island continent, in the face of contrasting environments and changing climates, human responses produced many cultures, languages and life styles. The old world is usually credited with the origins of art and spirituality. Recent discoveries, however, prove that symbolic rock art and complex burial rites also existed in australia at challengingly early times. The authors evaluate the dating evidence upon which australia's human story before 1788 is reconstructed. They review diverse topics, such as the controversy about the time people first arrived on the continent's northern coast, the extinction of marsupial megafauna and the diversity of aboriginal rock art. 9780367717490 0367717492K6�o'Y)R�Nb�N 1914-1918Australia's War 1914-18MAustralia's war, 1914-18 explores australia's involvement in the first world war and the effect this had on the nation' s society.

Its particular focus is the external financial reporting practices of joint stock companies. This is worth knowing about given the widely held view that britain (i) pioneered modern financial reporting, and (ii) played a primary role in the development of both capital markets and professional accountancy. The book makes use of a principal and agent framework to study accounting s past, but one where the failure of managers always to supply the information that users desire is given full recognition. It is shown that corporate financial reporting did not develop into its current state in a straightforward and orderly fashion.

While it puts a spotlight on the issues and challenges related to racial politics that black museums collectively face in the 21st century, it also shines a light on how they intersect with corporate culture, youth culture, and the broader cultural world. Turning the lens to philanthropy in the contemporary era, banks throws light on the establishment side of african american museums and demonstrates how this contrasts with their grassroots foundations. Drawing on over 80 in-depth interviews with trustees and other supporters of african american museums across the united states, this book offers an inside look at the world of cultural philanthropy. While patrons are bound together by being among the distinct group of cultural philanthropists who support black museums, the motivations and meanings underlying their giving depart in both subtle and considerable ways depending on race and ethnicity, profession, generation, and lifestyle. 9780815349648 9780367739898 0367739895 �~�l0�ylN^�lQl&Domination, Migration And Non-citizensDoes the concept of domination cast new light on issues that arise in the context of migration and citizenship? if citizenship is a status that provides protection from domination, understood as subjection to arbitrary interference, are non-citizens - whether outside or inside the state - necessarily subject to domination by virtue of being non-citizens? does domination provide a useful basis for considering the harms that migrants suffer? if non-domination is a value to be promoted in politics, what are the implications for the treatment of migrants and resident non-citizens? this book addresses issues of migration and citizenship within the frame of freedom, in terms of domination, understood as being subject to the threat of arbitrary interference.

Based upon legislation and judicial cases, each essay considers the legal origins of free soil and the context in which it was invoked: medieval england, toulouse and medieval france, early modern france and the mediterranean, the netherlands, eighteenth-century portugal, nineteenth-century angola, nineteenth-century spain and cuba, and the brazilian-paraguay borderlands. On the one hand, free soil policies were deployed by weaker polities to attract worker-settlers; however, by the eighteenth century, free soil was increasingly invoked by european imperial centres to distinguish colonial regimes based in slavery from the privileges and liberties associated with the metropole. 9780367736651 0367736659L��R0‰�[N�eaƋ�bgR�eaƋƋ+RǏ z�v�_tR�gU\g'Acting, Spectating, And The UnconsciousVA Psychoanalytic Perspective On Unconscious Processes Of Identification In The Theatre Maria Turri�From aristotle s theory of tragic katharsis onwards, theorists of the theatre have long engaged with the question of what spectatorship entails. This question has, directly or indirectly, often been extended to the investigation of acting. Acting, spectating, and the unconscious approaches the unconscious aspects of spectatorship and acting afresh. Interweaving psychoanalytic descriptions of processes such as transference, unconscious phantasy, and alpha-function with an in-depth survey of theories of spectating and acting from thinkers such as brecht, diderot, rousseau and plato, maria grazia turri offers a significant insight into the emotions inherent in both the art of the actor, and the spectator s experience. A compelling investigation of the unconscious communication between spectators and actors, this volume is a must-read for students and scholars fascinated by theatre spectatorship. 9780367739515 0367739518 N3z�[�v�e�N���R�]0�]\ON?e�l$Precariat: Labour, Work And PoliticsAIn his recent work, guy standing has identified a new class which has emerged from neo-liberal restructuring with, he argues, the revolutionary potential to change the world: the precariat.

Whilst the united states has suffered from hundreds of mass shootings over the years, policy change relating to guns has been limited in scope, particularly when compared with other developed nations. Recognizing that the united states has a different history and culture, new policies must be undertaken to mitigate the occurrences of mass shootings with the understanding that its response should not be the same as other developed nations.Examining gun regulations, warning behaviors, and policies to prevent mass shootings is a critical reference book that analyzes the debates around and responses to mass shootings with a two-fold focus: the prevention, preparation, response, and recovery of mass shootings and gun proposals raised following these incidents. 9780367731816 03677318193�RN2kg�N*N�_��yQ�N�v���Masculinities And DesireA Deleuzian EncounterMarek WojtaszekIMasculinities and desire considers the question of male subjectivity in relation to deleuze and guattari s theory of desire. Western tradition has thought of desire from the vantage point of masculine subjectivity; what happens when the order is reversed, and desire speaks through masculinity? can masculinity be conceived beyond the gender binary and thus affirm its potential to transcend the patriarchal order? in answer, masculinities and desire calls for a radically new approach to traditional cultural criticism. Contributing a critical male perspective, the book sheds new light on the conceptual and ethical limits of established, representational (gender) criticism. Reflecting on masculinity with deleuze, the book explores what happens to the masculine subject in his becoming-minoritarian and thus emerging as a work of desire. 9780367734077 0367734079�etQ�~NmSO�vON>yO��s�[N{^ɉ&Corporate Social In Emerging EconomiesReality And Illusion-Cosmina Lelia Voinea And Cosmin Fratostiteanu�Over the last few decades, emerging markets have increased their share in world gdp and have come to play a prominent and growing role in global business. Their period of impressive growth was triggered by major global advances such as economic liberalization and governance reforms and deregulation. As governments and policy makers have permitted global competition from the more advanced, developed world, the prospect of millions of consumers in developing countries not only encourages locals to start businesses, but also appeals to multinational enterprises overseas. The growing presence of emerging markets on the world stage has not been left unnoticed and many investors have contributed significant amounts of capital with the hope of receiving major financial gains. In this context, emerging markets are particularly facing sustainability challenges due to their fast growing pace and fuzzy or inexistent sustainability regulations. 9781799867180 1799867188Џ(uYe��:ghV�N�b/g�Oۏf[uf[`NxvzKb�QOHandbook Of Research On Using Education Robotics To Facilitate Student LearningStamatios Papadakis�Over the last few years, increasing attention has been focused on the development of children s acquisition of 21st-century skills and digital competences. Consequently, many education scholars have argued that teaching technology to young children is vital in keeping up with 21st-century employment patterns. Technologies, such as those that involve robotics or coding apps, come at a time when the demand for computing jobs around the globe is at an all-time high while its supply is at an all-time low. There is no doubt that coding with robotics is a wonderful tool for learners of all ages as it provides a catalyst to introduce them to computational thinking, algorithmic thinking, and project management. Additionally, recent studies argue that the use of a developmentally appropriate robotics curriculum can help to change negative stereotypes and ideas children may initially have about technology and engineering. 9780367739171 0367739178lQ�yO4OsQ�|��W@x���e0Џ��N,g0W g�RNPublic-private Partnerships: Infrastructure, Transportation And Local Services(Public private partnerships (ppps) are arrangements between government and private actors with the objective of providing public infrastructure, facilities and services.

Drawing on examples from australia, europe, the united kingdom and the united states, each topic is examined as a different kind of problem for the future; as a toil, an intensity or a promise.

This work presents the rise and decline of the european timber exporters convention (etec) and analyses how firms navigated through the cartel game under increasing international competition, pressures from the national governments, and the interventionist endeavours of the league of nations. Cartels are often associated in the standard economic interpretation as business collusion. However, in using vast archive sources and historical methodology, the chapters in this book shed light onto how international relations shaped cartels. The rise of british protectionism, the emergence of the soviet union as an industrial power, and the economic rapprochement of the league of nations in the early 1930s created a wave of trade political and diplomatic challenges in the timber trading countries and affected cartelisation. 9780367376390 SE-F0-0082 9780367734879 0367734877�etQ�V�[N�]NS�V�[�vu�N�R�R`f[>Productivity Dynamics In Emerging And Industrialized CountriesLThe world, of late, has seen a productivity slowdown.

It has been particularly significant for studies of gender, helping to destabilise models of selfhood where women were usually defined in opposition to a male norm. In this multidisciplinary collection, scholars apply this approach to a wide array of historical sources, from literature to art to letters to museum exhibitions, which survive from the medieval to modern periods. In doing so, they explore the extent that using a model of performativity can open up our understanding of women s lives and sense of self in the past. They highlight the way that this method provides a significant critique of power relationships within society that offers greater agency to women as historical actors and offers a challenge to traditional readings of women s place in society. 0367362740 9780367732844 036773284XRoutledge �eS>yOf[Kb�Q ,{2Hr(Routledge Handbook Of Cultural SociologyaThe thoroughly revised and updated second edition of the routledge handbook of cultural sociology provides an unparalleled overview of sociological and related scholarship on the complex relations of culture to social structures and everyday life.

The possible scope of such a companion in the field of electronic music has changed radically over the last 30 years. The definitions of the field itself are now broader - there is no clear boundary between 'electronic music' and 'sound art'. Also, what was previously an apparently simple divide between 'art' and 'popular' practices is now not easy or helpful to make, and there is a rich cluster of streams of practice with many histories, including world music traditions. This leads in turn to a steady undermining of a primarily euro-american enterprise in the second half of the twentieth century. Telecommunications technology, most importantly the development of the internet in the final years of the century, has made materials, practices and experiences ubiquitous and apparently universally available - though some contributions to this volume reassert the influence and importance of local cultural practice. Research in this field is now increasingly multi-disciplinary. 9780367738181 036773818Xpef[N��Sf[Mathematics And Archaeology�Although many archaeologists have a good understanding of the basics in computer science, statistics, geostatistics, modeling, and data mining, more literature is needed about the advanced analysis in these areas.

Through the medieval epic poems cantar de mio cid and mocedades de rodrigo, the ballad tradition, cervantes s novelas ejemplares, and lope de vega s theatre, geraldine hazbun demonstrates that illegitimacy and legitimacy are interconnected and flexible categories defined in relation to marriage, sex, bodies, ethnicity, religion, lineage, and legacy. Both categories are subject to the uncertainties and freedoms of language and fiction and frequently constructed around axes of quantity and completeness. These literary texts, covering a range of illegitimate figures, some with an historical basis, demonstrate that truth, propriety, and standards of behaviour are not forged in the law code or the pulpit but in literature s fluid system of producing meaning.574 9780367418137 0367418134 �S�[�xvz ,{9Hr Victimology$William G.

The book goes on to address the full impact of victimization, and a final section details specific types of victimization, ranging from violent crimes, including child and elder abuse, to property crime, to crime in the school and in the workplace. 9780367418090 9780367719814 0367719819�SOOl�vb_bThe Making Of The Aborigines3Before 1788, the peoples of this continent did not consider themselves 'aboriginal'. They only became 'aborigines' in the wake of the british invasion. In this startling and original study, bain attwood reveals how relationships between black australians and european colonisers determined the hearts and minds of the indigenous peoples, making them anew as aboriginals.In examining the period after the 'killing times', this young historian provides new perspectives on racial ideology, government policy, and the rule of law. In examining european domination, he unravels the patterns of associations which were woven between european and aborigine, and shows the complex meanings and significance these relationships held for both groups.In this book, the dispossessed are not cast as merely passive victims; they appear as real characters, men and women who adapted to european colonisation in accordance with their own historical and cultural experience. Out of this exchange the colonised created a new consciousness and began to forge a common identity for themselves. 9780367720148< 0367720140ў}vDdq_Working In Black & White�Basics photography 06: working in black & white, by david pr�kel, provides a comprehensive guide to the basic theory and practice of black and white photography, from the relationship between colour and greyscale tones to the art of seeing in black and white.Black and white, the book argues, has been the soul and conscience of photography since its conception. Black and white is not a lesser colour image - it is, in many ways, more powerful. It gets to the core of what is important in an image, leaving behind the distractions of colour.This is an inspiring text which enables students to make the most of the opportunities offered by black and white photography. 9780367424640 0367424649b:NpeW[S6r�k�.^�R�[�^~�m��b/g�v�[(ucWSBecoming A Digital Parent6A Practical Guide To Help Families Navigate TechnologyCarrie Rogers WhiteheadvBecoming a digital parent is a practical, readable guide that will help all parents have confidence to successfully navigate technology with their children.

This was the city of 'low life', of crowded slums, poverty, disease and vice.The nine essays in the outcasts of melbourne attempt to reveal the social realities behind this picture. They include new accounts of the forces which created the city's physical environment. They show how perceptions of a city can be shaped by campaigning journalists, artists and writers. They present collective portraits of the poor and the 'criminal classes' - and of those who set out to save them. They describe how the city's guardians - the police, public health authorities and charity workers - responded to the challenge of the slums.By imaginative use of the rich deposits in the public records, these explorations in social history present new ways of documenting the lives of people whose daily activities were seldom reported in the popular press. 9780367470364 0367470365��KQΘ����KQΘ0��KQΘ�b/g�SvQ�[g�~�m�vq_�T ,{2HrMic It!EMicrophones, Microphone Techniques, And Their Impact On The Final Mix Ian Corbett�Capture great sound in the first place and spend less time "fixing it in the mix" with ian corbett s mic it! with this updated and expanded second edition, you ll quickly understand essential audio concepts as they relate to microphones and mic techniques and learn how to apply them to your recording situation.

However, case management is not always successfully implemented, and practitioners often feel they are not given sufficient support.The practice of case management draws on extensive practice research to identify the key characteristics of successful case management: organisational support; developing delivery models to suit individual client needs; preparation of staff at all levels; and affirmation of the central and active role of the client.The authors outline the challenges and complexities faced by case managers, acknowledging that their role is often poorly conceptualised and articulated. 9780367490997 0367490994�e�1u;NINN[�ZS gKQ�y{^\��u;m(W�|�u�R=\�v��+Neoliberalism And Cyberpunk Science FictionLiving On The Edge Of BurnoutCaroline Alphin�Caroline alphin presents an original exploration of biopolitics by examining it through the lens of cyberpunk science fiction.Comprised of five chapters, neoliberalism<  and cyberpunk science fiction is guided by four central themes: biopolitics, intensification, resilience, and accelerationism.

Modern scholars describe these works as  poetry, but there was no corresponding ancient hebrew term or concept. Scholars also typically assume it began as  oral literature, a concept based more in evolutionist assumptions than evidence. Is biblical poetry a purely modern fiction, or is there a more fundamental reason why its definition escapes us?beyond orality: biblical poetry on its own terms changes the debate by showing how biblical poetry has worked as a mirror, reflecting each era s own self-image of verbal art. Yet vayntrub also shows that this problem is rooted in a crucial pattern within the bible itself: the texts we recognize as  poetry are framed as powerful and ancient verbal performances, dramatic speeches from the past. 9780367717636 0367717638l�e�^xQ��[�o'Y)R�N200hTt^�vyb$R_xvzCelebrating The Nation+A Critical Study Of Australia's Bicentenary Celebrating the nation offers the first major critical retrospective on australia's bicentenary.

This book brings together work on specific aspects of the politics of resources for each of these countries, regionally and internationally. There are some similarities in the approaches taken by all these three. For example, their development assistance shares a focus on infrastructure building and reluctance to purposefully influence domestic politics. However, there are also significant differences due in large part to the individual nature of the states as international actors. China has significant domestic supplies of resources while japan and korea are net importers. China s size also marks it out as different, as does its state socialist history and continuing authoritarian state. 9781138796317 9780367718619 0367718618�eg�vƋW[f[`N$Literacy Learning In The Early YearsnChildren's early experiences of literacy have a major influence on how they continue to learn as they grow older. Children enter early childhood programs and school with a wealth of knowledge and understandings of literacy. It is critical that early childhood professionals and teachers recognise and build on this learning.Literacy learning in the early years offers a practical introduction to literacy issues for early childhood professionals and teachers working with children aged 0-8, in childcare, preschool and school contexts.The authors take a socio-cultural approach to literacy learning, emphasising the importance of understanding the various contexts in which young children are involved in literacy practices. They explore a range of literacy issues that early childhood professionals and teachers are facing in the 21st century. These issues include the role of play in literacy learning, how to use information communication technologies with young children and ways of introducing critical literacy. Literacy is understood broadly and readers are encouraged to explore a range of print and other media with children. 9781509546961 1509546960�WcwYeD��nResources Of ChristianityFran�ois Jullien�Christianity is bound up with the very idea of the west: we cannot evade it even if we would like to. While many people no longer believe in christianity, we cannot deny that it has left a deep imprint on western thought. But how might we develop a philosophy of christianity that is not a christian philosophy? how can we take a view that is external to the traditions of apologetics and criticism? for there is a question that concerns us all here: are the coherences of christianity sti< ll useful for thought, and especially for thought about existence? to address this question, francois jullien considers christianity as constituting a set of resources. Resources are available to all and can be used by those who discover and exploit them; they belong to no one. Christianity offers us resources inasmuch as we can draw some benefit from it, inasmuch as it can be the source of an effect, without our having to believe it or determine its truth in advance. 9781509546954 9780367732912 0367732912��:g�_�s�w5�Random Circulant MatricesArup Bose And Koushik Saha:Circulant matrices have been around for a long time and have been extensively used in many scientific areas.

In particular, the behavior of the spectral distribution, of the spectral radius and of the appropriate point processes are developed systematically using the method of moments and the various powerful normal approximation results. This behavior varies according as the entries are independent, are from a linear process, and are light- or heavy-tailed. Arup bose obtained his b.Stat., m.Stat. And ph.D.

Addressing the uncertainty and social and psychological processes that impact our social contexts, it shows how groups and individuals can come together to manage global crises, but also how these crises can expose flaws in our society. The volume also reflects on how we can work together to rebuild society in the aftermath of the pandemic, through a shared sense of responsibility based on social integration and responsible leadership. 9780367647599 9780367731779 0367731770���6qN'YO�eS�T�s�N�v�[YeΘof"The Paranormal And Popular Culture A Postmodern Religious LandscapesInterest in preternatural and supernatural themes has revitalized the gothic tale, renewed explorations of psychic powers and given rise to a host of social and religious movements based upon claims of the fantastical. 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. 9780367729745 0367729741$archaeological science & methodology�S�Su`f[0I{�~6R�^N�ezzof‰?Historical Ecologies, Heterarchies And Transtemporal Landscapes3Interlacing varied approaches within historical ecology, this volume offers new routes to researching and understanding human environmental interactions and the heterarchical power relations that shape both socioecological change and resilience over time. Historical ecology draws from archaeology, archival research, ethnography, the humanities and the biophysical sciences to merge the history of the earth s biophysical system with the history< of humanity. Considering landscape as the spatial manifestation of the relations between humans and their environments through time, the authors in this volume examine the multi-directional power dynamics that have shaped settlement, agrarian, monumental and ritual landscapes through the long-term field projects they have pursued around the globe. Examining both biocultural stability and change through the longue dur�e in different regions, these essays highlight intersectionality and counterpoised power flows to demonstrate that alongside and in spite of hierarchical ideologies, the daily life of power is heterarchical. 9780367671563 0367671565�X��TԈ��V�YsY0 gp�N'`+R�^NaS�N0sYGYaS���N01gW�sg(Mexican American Women, Dress And GenderPachucas, Chicanas, CholasAmaia Ibarraran-bigalondo�Mexican american women have endured several layers of discrimination deriving from a strong patriarchal tradition and a difficult socioeconomic and cultural situation within the us ethnic and class organization.

Based on extensive field research, the book explores the social life of heavy metal, rap, and electronic music in a north african country whose mass revolution of 2010/2011 led the way to a troubled and yet unique democracy. What is it like to be part of a music scene in a place affected by poverty and inequality? how do the many conflicted souls of tunisian islam shape local metal, rap, and electro? what are the social and cultural stakes for music in a nation constantly represented as a bridge between europe and the middle east? how do music scenes articulate the complex political scenario that followed the tunisian revolution of 2011? barone answers these questions by offering new theoretical reflections on youth cultures and popular music in a global perspective, and thus pushing the debate on "post-subcultures" and scenes forward. 9780367739355 0367739356'k�v�N�R-N�v��O�l��N �l gT��|T�)Parliamentary Communication In Eu AffairsConnecting With The Electorate?�Over the last twenty years, the role of national parliaments in eu affairs has gained considerable academic attention. Much of the literature, however, has focused on parliamentary scrutiny and control in eu affairs. What tends to be generally overlooked is that the parliamentary communication function is at least as important in eu politics as the control function. Democratic legitimacy depends on a vibrant public debate on political solutions and alternatives to allow citizens to make informed political (electoral) choices and to exercise democratic control. Within the eu, it is precisely the opacity of policy-making processes and the lack of public discourse that have been defined as core problems of democratic legitimacy. Here, parliaments have the potential to provide an ideal arena for the deliberation of important european issues and thus to help overcome the much-lamented distance between european policy processes and the citizens. 9780367729448 036772944X T'`K`�[a� Queer ObjectsBPursuing the discursive or material effects of relational queerness, this book reflects on how objects can illuminate, affect, and animate queer modes of being. In the early 1990s the queer theorist eve kosofsky sedgwick defined queer as  multiply transitive . . . Relational and strange, rather than a fixed identity. In spite of this, much of the queer theoretical scholarship of the last three decades has used queer as a synonym for anti-normative sexual identities. The contributions to this volume return to the idea of transitivity, exploring what happens when queer is thought of as a turning toward or turning away from a diverse range of objects, including bodily waste; frozen cats; archival ephemera; the writing of virginia woolf; the pop art of ray johnson; the podcast s-town; and maggie nelson s memoir the argonauts. 9780367732691 0367732696�c�R�S�S�v��Lu"Pushing The Boundaries Of Historia Pushing the boundaries of historia collects together 20 chapters, whose coverage extends from the prehistory of greece through early christianity in the roman empire to the reception of classical texts by contemporary playwrights and poets. The essays range beyond greece and rome to the ancient realms of persia and china and explore a vast array of ancient authors  homer, herodotus, thucydides, euripides, vergil, ovid, livy, and tacitus.Written by philologists, historians, epigraphers, palaeographers, archaeologists, and art historians, it brings together the best of old and new traditions of classical study, from senior emeritus faculty with established records of scholarly productivity, to the newest generation of classics and archaeology professors. What draws together the disparate strands of academic inquiry found in these pages is a passion for understanding how the lessons of the world of the ancient greeks, romans, and their still lamentably understudied neighbors, can offer commentary on the contemporary world. 9780367738099 0367738090 NLu��S N�v�ߘNgRb�#Food And Theatre On The World Stage=Putting food and theatre into direct conversation, this volume focuses on how food and theatre have operated for centuries as partners in the performative, symbolic, and literary making of meaning. Through case studies, literary analyses, and < performance critiques, contributors examine theatrical work from china, japan, india, greece, italy, france, germany, england, the united states, chile, argentina, and zimbabwe, addressing work from classical, popular, and contemporary theatre practices. The investigation of uses of food across media and artistic genres is a burgeoning area of scholarly investigation, yet regarding representation and symbolism, literature and film have received more attention than theatre, while performance studies scholars have taken the lead in examining the performative aspects of food events. 9780367732790 0367732793>yOON�[�|^yNFUNS��_�����v�vq��R�v�Qi��v!�.sNĉ�'`�w�v+Social Entrepreneurship And Business EthicsTUnderstanding The Contribution And Normative Ambivalence Of Purpose-driven VenturingAnica Zeyen And Markus Beckmann=Social entrepreneurs are change makers that aim to solve society s unsolved problems. Not surprisingly, social entrepreneurship has thus created high expectations. To better understand the potential as well as the limitations of social entrepreneurship, however, a more nuanced approach is needed in two ways. First, social entrepreneurship is a multi-level phenomenon. It spans macro-level questions as well as meso-level questions and, finally, micro-level questions. If we really want to understand social entrepreneurship, we need to bring together all three levels of analysis and see how they are connected. Second, while social entrepreneurship can certainly produce socially desirable outcomes, we also need a critical perspective to capture potential undesirable effects that social entrepreneurship can cause, often unintendedly, in society, in markets, in organizations, and for individuals. To this end, an ethical perspective can help complement the positive analysis of social entrepreneurship with a discussion of the normative implications of its potential "dark side". 9780367732899 0367732890>yOR�e[_>e���S]��k��U\gSocial Innovation [open Access]Comparative Perspectives2Helmut Anheier, Gorgi Krlev And Georg Mildenberger�Social innovation: comparative perspectives investigates socio-economic impact. Since it is hard to establish causality and to measure social properties when investigating impact, especially at the level of society, the book narrows down impact to one priority aspect: social innovation  understood as organizations capacity to generate novel ideas, ways and means of doing things, of addressing public and social problems of many kinds.This volume s primary assertion is that the third sector, specifically through stimulating civic involvement, is best placed to produce social innovation, outperforming business firms and state agencies in this regard. By investigating actor contributions to social innovation across seven fields of activity, social innovation: comparative perspectives develops our understanding of why and how the third sector is central to functioning, cohesive and viable societies. 9781138068360 9780367734220 0367734222�~_N�~AmL�5uP[�PN 1990 2015��eS�S,Popular Viennese Electronic Music, 1990 2015=The author;presents a cultural history of popular viennese electronic music from 1990 to 2015, from the perspectives of production, scene and national and international reception.

Heath argues that not only does the god of the old testament bear a striking resemblance to the olympians, but also that the homeric system rejected by the judeo-christian tradition offers a better model for the human condition. The universe depicted by homer and populated by his gods is one that creates a unique and powerful responsibility  almost directly counter to that evoked by the bible for humans to discover ethical norms, accept death as a necessary human limit, develop compassion to mitigate a tragic existence, appreciate frankly both the glory and dangers of sex, and embrace and respond courageously to an indifferent universe that was clearly not designed for human dominion.Heath builds on recent work in biblical and cla< ssical studies to examine the contemporary value of mythical deities. 9780367739317 0367739313 hQtD�,g;NINN��V6��~b_b3Global Capitalism And Transnational Class Formation8The global capitalism perspective is a unique research program focused on understanding relatively recent developments in worldwide social, economic, and political practices related to globalization. At its core, it seeks to contextualize the rearticulation of nation-states and broad geographic regions into highly interdependent networks of production and distribution, and in so doing explain consequent changes in social relations within and between countries in the contemporary era. The present volume contributes to this effort by focusing on social class formation across borders via the processes and actors that make globalized capitalism possible.The essays presented here offer a wide range of emphases in terms of the particular lenses and evidence they use. They cover such topics as the emergence of a transnational capitalist class-based fascist regime responding to the structural crises of global capitalism as well as the;links between global class formation and the us racial project as it relates to electoral politics and demographic changes in the us south. 9781138806870 9780367733988 0367733986�VGr�vPN����~;u�~��N�[�#kO�The Pleasure Of Pictures/Pictorial Experience And Aesthetic AppreciationDThe general aim of this volume is to investigate the nature of the relation between pictorial experience and aesthetic appreciation. In particular, it is concerned with the character and intimacy of this relationship: is there a mere causal connection between pictorial experience and aesthetic appreciation, or are the two relata constitutively associated with one another? the essays in the book s first section investigate important conceptual issues related to the pictorial experience of paintings. In section ii, the essays discuss the notion of styles, techniques, agency, and facture, and also take into account the experience of photographic and cinematic pictures. The pleasure of pictures goes substantially beyond current debates in the philosophy of depiction to launch a new area of reflection in philosophical aesthetics. 9780367670986 0367670984�SU\0Am�y1Y@bN͑�e�[n�v�V�[Fh�g�M�NOΘi�0�g�^��^�R@Country Frameworks For Development Displacement And Resettlement"Reducing Risk, Building ResiliencezThe problem of escalating population displacement demands global attention and country co-ordination.

Those displaced by these schemes often risk losses to their;homes, livelihoods, food security, and socio-cultural support;;for which they;are rarely fully compensated. Bringing together 22 specialist researchers and practitioners from across the globe, this book provides a much-needed independent analysis of country frameworks for development-induced displacement spanning asia, africa, central and south america.As global competition for land increases, public and private sector lenders are lightening their social safeguards, shifting the oversight for protecting the displaced to national law and regulations. 9781138491892 9780367738945 0367738945T�kl�eg^�2mW0WN�O�b:S�SS�vb�����eW0W0�e�[���BThe Changing Face Of Land And Conservation In Post-colonial AfricaOld Land, New Practices?The year 2013 marked the 100th anniversary of the 1913 land act in south africa which legalised the violent dispossession and alienation of the african majority from the land. It is common cause that the alienation of land for conservation purposes, introduced to africa under colonial rule, has continued more or less uninterrupted until today. However, while nature conservation practices inevitably raise challenging questions relating to land and land use, there has thus far been little concentrated effort to bring together scholars working on the land question, particularly around issues of land tenure, with those whose work focuses on questions of nature construction and the social impacts of conservation in an african context. Compiled from research presented at a ground-breaking interdisciplinary conference held at rhodes university in grahamstown, south africa, in 2012, the chapters in this book made their first appearance in a special issue of the journal of contemporary african studies (jcas) in july 2013. 9780367728694 0367728699qS:g0'})N�e�vYef[Fh�g�S_�N ^J�Ye���v ^gYe��f[?Crisis, Austerity, And New Frameworks For Teaching And Learning3A Pedagogy Of Hope For Contemporary Greek Education Maria Chalari�This book attempts to examine the educational consequences of the recent social and economic situation in greece, and it explores on a general level new possibilities for teaching and learning at times of national crisis.

Each chapter in this volume offers a critical transformative narrative in response to these conflicts. It asks how social justice and equality is to be constructed and provides a fresh perspective.It is argued that social movements can no longer be concerned only with itemizing a checklist of demands; it is now necessary to be free of the hegemony of current frames, categories, concepts and principles, and to rethink the  promise .

Drawing on over one hundred interviews with policy makers, diplomats, bureaucrats, members of civil society and academics in turkey, france and the united states, it offers a comparison of the engagement of turkish migrants with political issues in turkey in periods both before and after home state policies have been constructed with a view to engaging emigrants. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology and politics with interests in diaspora and the engagement of migrants with political issues in their countries of origin. 9781138573123 9780367671303 0367671301bullying & truancy  T'`K`Yef[�Ye�[ T'`K`Queer Teaching - Teaching QueerLThis book draws upon contemporary irish and international research which explores the critical interplay between education studies and sexualities. Scholars from ireland, canada, spain, the u.K. And sweden employ the conceptual lens of queer theory to interrogate and destabilise long-standing regimes of truth/knowledge, and in so doing, highlight the suitability and applicability of this theoretical perspective within educational discourses. By reframing and repositioning gender identity/expression as a performative expression on a fluid continuum, this book provokes readers to (re)view how they see education, pedagogy and schooling. The book interrogates what happens to teaching, and teachers, when queerness permeates their practice, thus exposing the ways in which heteronormativity informs and shapes our places/sites of education. 9780367232306 9780367429355 0367429357health law and ethics �e�RaWkSu�lN;Sf[&Ot*Health Law And Medical Ethics In SingaporeGary Chan Kok YewzThis book encompasses two inter-related disciplines of health law and medical ethics applicable to singapore.

A key figure in musical developments in spain in the decades around 1500, anchieta served in the castilian royal chapel for over thirty years, from his appointment in 1489 as a singer in the household of queen isabel, and he continued to receive a pension from her grandson, the emperor charles v, until his death in 1523. He traveled to flanders in the service of the catholic monarchs daughter juana, and was briefly music master to charles himself. Anchieta, along with francisco de pe�alosa, his contemporary in the aragonese chapel, and a few others, was a key figure in the rise of elaborate written polyphony in the spain of josquin s time.

It is distinctive in treating nordicism as a phenomenon with its own narrative, rather than as discreet episodes in works studying aspects of eugenics, nationalism, nazism and the reception history of old norse culture. It is also distinctive in applying to this narrative a framework of analysis derived from the parallel theories of roger griffin and zygmunt bauman, to examine nordicism as a process of myth creation protecting both the individual and society from the challenges and terror of an ever-changing and accelerating state of modernity. 9783030614805 3030614808'k�v�VE��y�l-N��1_N�e��VT T�v�(u�l�_eThe Law Applicable To Cross-border Contracts Involving Weaker Parties In Eu Private International LawMar�a Campo Comba�This book provides answers to the following questions: how do traditional principles of private international law relate to the requirements of the internal market for the realisation of the eu s objectives regarding the protection of weaker parties such as consumers and employees? when and how should private international law ensure the applicability of eu directives concerning the protection of weaker parties? are the eu s current private international law, rules on conflict of laws, and private international law approach sufficient to ensure the realisation of its objectives regarding weaker contracting parties, or is a different approach to private international law called for? the book concludes with several proposed amendments, mainly regarding the rome i regulation on the law applicable to contractual obligations, as well as suggestions on the eu s current approach to private international law. 9780367738921 0367738929o�tf[N1Y��uPharmacology And AphasiaRThis book provides clinicians and researchers with the current state-of-the-art on the pharmacological treatment of aphasia.

It also explores from the perspective of new institutional political ecology (nipe) how europe directly and indirectly affected and affects the commons globally.Most of the research on the management of commons pool resources is limited to dealing with one of two topics: either the interaction between local participatory governance and development of institutions for commons management, or a political- economy approach that focuses on global change as it is related to the increasingly globalised expansion of capitalist modes of production, consumption and societal reproduction. This volume bridges the two, addressing how global players affect the commons worldwide and how they relate to responses emerging from within the commons in a global- local (glocal) world. 9780367729844 0367729849middle east geography�k��-NNBordering The Middle East<This volume focuses on the influence that borders in the middle east can have on actors identity building, as well as how local, national, or transnational actors re/ define borders and boundaries.The middle east is facing a political crisis, revealed by the arab uprisings, that is affecting states borders in a paradoxical way: while local, communal, or tribal dissent tends to contest international borders, states are trying to affirm their control over national territory in building border fences.

This strategy made it possible to take into account and give legitimacy to locally embedded approaches, thus resulting in an analysis encompassing a wide diversity of social enterprises, while simultaneously allowing for the identification of major se models to delineate the field on common grounds at the international level.These se models reveal or confirm an overall trend towards new ways of sharing the responsibility for the common good in today s economies and societies. We tend to consider as good news the fact that social enterprises actually stem from all parts of the economy.

Social psychology makes change management comprehensible to people and allows them to consider their actions in groups and the organization on their merits. They may seem obvious and self-evident, but practice and science, as well as the popular change management literature, show that it is not.Drawing on the field of social psychology and based on primary research, the social psychology of change management presents more than forty social psychological theories and concepts that are relevant for the field of change management.

By applying interdisciplinary insight to a relatively overlooked movie in academic discussion, easy a: the end of the high-school teen comedy? is the first in-depth volume that places the movie within several key contexts and concepts of intertextuality, gender, genre and adaptation, and social discourse. Through the unpacking of a complex narrative that draws its plot from nathaniel hawthorne s the scarlet letter (1850) and shares affinities with john hughes paradigmatic films from the 1980s and key films from the 1990s, this volume presents easy a as a palimpsest for the millennial generation. 9780367718893 03677188987bYf[`N�s�X��eg�v�c"}0�S�sN�Qi�zz��Outdoor Learning EnvironmentsDSpaces For Exploration, Discovery And Risk-taking In The Early Years�Educators have a key pedagogical role in promoting early years outdoor play in natural environments.
