This new edition specifically focuses on seven contemporary challenges that have affected global supply chain management. Recent disruptions to global supply chains created by COVID-19 and the Ukraine conflict have resulted in significant geographical shifts in supply and demand.

Food Provisions for Ancient Rome A Supply Chain Approach

Food Provisions for Ancient Rome A Supply Chain Approach

This book defines the processes used for delivering a range of food items to the city of Rome and its hinterland from the first century AD using modern supply chain modelling techniques. The subject matter delves into the wider supply of goods such as wood and building products to add further perspective to the breadth of the system managed by the Roman administration to ensure supply and political stability. It assesses the impact of strategic changes such as the introduction of water-powered milling technology and restructuring of the annona in this period as well as administrative reforms. Evidence from ancient sources both literary and epigraphic along with relevant archaeological comparative evidence is used to develop a detailed supply model including the mapping of warehouse management systems; port and river traffic co-ordination; quality control mechanisms and administrative structures. Unlike other contemporary studies this model takes into consideration supply chain losses to correct the erroneous assumption that supply is equal to consumption. A product flow map from the source of supply to the consumer details the labour equipment and infrastructure required at each stage painting a graphic picture of just what an achievement it was for the administration to have maintained such a complex system over this long time period. Food Provisions for Ancient Rome provides an in depth exploration of this topic that will be of interest to anyone working on the city of Rome under the empire as well as those interested in imperial administration and logistics. | Food Provisions for Ancient Rome A Supply Chain Approach

Engaging with the Past c.250-c.650

Engaging with the Past c.250-c.650

Between c. 250 and c. 650 the way the past was seen recorded and interpreted for a contemporary audience changed fundamentally. Only since the 1970s have the key elements of this historiographical revolution become clear with the recasting of the period across both east and west as ‘late antiquity’. Historiography however has struggled to find its place in this new scholarly world. No longer is decline and fall the natural explanatory model for cultural and literary developments but continuity and transformation. In addition the emergence of ‘late antiquity’ coincided with a methodological challenge arising from the ‘linguistic turn’ which impacted on history writing in all eras. This book is focussed on the development of modern understanding of how the ways of seeing and recording the past changed in the course of adjusting to emerging social religious and cultural developments over the period from c. 250 to c. 650. Its overriding theme is how modern historiography has adapted over the past half century to engaging with the past between c. 250 and c. 650. Now as explained in this book the newly dominant historiographical genres (chronicles epitomes church histories) are seen as the preferred modes of telling the story of the past rather than being considered rudimentary and naïve. | Engaging with the Past c. 250-c. 650

Institutional Innovation and Change in Value Chain Development Negotiating tradition power and fragility in Afghanistan

Institutional Innovation and Change in Value Chain Development Negotiating tradition power and fragility in Afghanistan

George Bernard Shaw once said that reasonable people adapt themselves to the world but unreasonable people adapt the world to themselves. In a sense this book explores how these so-called ‘unreasonable people’ may interact to re-fashion the world around them in fragile economic development. Drawing on empirical research in the volatile and traditional context of Afghanistan the study investigates the challenge of poor women’s participation in business and diverse outcomes for local development. Institutional Innovation and Change in Value Chain Development takes a unique look at nuanced institutional phenomena through the lens of social institutions with a subtle appreciation of the interaction of structure and agency. Drawing on in-depth qualitative research in Afghanistan the case studies specifically investigate the transformation of the women’s norm of purdah and the subsequent development of new market institutions in three women’s enterprises. Shedding new light on the opaque process of institutional change the research shows that external actors (such as NGOs) can both initiate and guide institutional development in fragile environments. Yet there may be limitations to their endeavours with strong resistance from local power holders. Meanwhile dominant entrepreneurs are shown to play a major role in fostering institutional development pathways. This influences the scope of inclusion and exclusion in enterprise and value chains and broader streams of socio-economic development. | Institutional Innovation and Change in Value Chain Development Negotiating tradition power and fragility in Afghanistan

Crusading at the Edges of Europe Denmark and Portugal c.1000 c.1250

Crusading at the Edges of Europe Denmark and Portugal c.1000 c.1250

This book is the first to compare Denmark and Portugal systematically in the High Middle Ages and demonstrates how the two countries became strong kingdoms and important powers internationally by their participation in the crusading movement. Communication in the Middle Ages was better developed than often assumed and institutions ideas and military technology was exchanged rapidly meaning it was possible to coordinate great military expeditions across the geographical periphery of Western Europe. Both Denmark and Portugal were closely connected to the sea and developed strong fleets at the entrance to the Baltic and in the Mediterranean Seas respectively. They also both had religious borders to the pagan Wends and to the Muslims that were pushed forward in almost continuous crusades throughout the centuries. Crusading at the Edges of Europe follows the major campaigns of the kings and crusaders in Denmark and Portugal and compares war-technology and crusading ideology highlighting how the countries learned from each other and became organised for war. | Crusading at the Edges of Europe Denmark and Portugal c. 1000 � c. 1250

This book examines the connection between notions of gender diplomacy society and peacemaking in the period c. 1880 to the mid- to late-twentieth century. The chapters in this volume place gender history at the interface with international history and international relations.

The book also breaks new ground by attempting to gender diplomacy. Further it revisits the popular view that women were connected with the peace movements that grew up after the First World War because the notion of peace was associated with stereotypical female traits such as the rejection of violence and the nurturing rather than destruction of humankind.

Kabbalistic Visions C. G. Jung and Jewish Mysticism

Kabbalistic Visions C. G. Jung and Jewish Mysticism

In 1944 C. G. Jung experienced a series of visions which he later described as the most tremendous things I have ever experienced. Central to these visions was the mystic marriage as it appears in the Kabbalistic tradition and Jung’s experience of himself as Rabbi Simon ben Jochai the presumed author of the sacred Kabbalistic text the Zohar. Kabbalistic Visions explores Jung’s 1944 Kabbalistic visions the impact of Jewish mysticism on Jungian psychology Jung’s archetypal interpretation of Kabbalistic symbolism and his claim late in life that a Hasidic rabbi the Maggid of Mezhirech anticipated his entire psychology. This book places Jung’s encounter with the Kabbalah in the context of the earlier visions and meditations of his Red Book his abiding interests in Gnosticism and alchemy and what many regard to be his Anti-Semitism and flirtation with National Socialism. Kabbalistic Visions is the first full-length study of Jung and Jewish mysticism in any language and the first book to present a comprehensive Jungian/archetypal interpretation of Kabbalistic symbolism. | Kabbalistic Visions C.
