Identity Conflict and Cooperation in International River Systems

Identity Conflict and Cooperation in International River Systems

Kalpakian tests the dominant assumption that water disputes cause violent conflict between states and other actors in world politics. Using case studies from arid regions to bias the effort towards this assumption he finds that issues related to identity have been the real source of conflict in the river basins studied. This essential volume: - challenges conventional assumptions about water and conflict - displaces the state as the sole actor in violent conflict - reveals the link between conflict and identity This book invites the reader to address the complexity in the relationships binding peoples and states in an international river basin. | Identity Conflict and Cooperation in International River Systems

The Hard Sell An Ethnographic Study of the Direct Selling Industry

The Hard Sell An Ethnographic Study of the Direct Selling Industry

In this work John Bone provides a lively and engaging insight into the social world of direct selling organizations. He investigates these under-researched organizations via a detailed ethnography of two home improvement companies selling products such as fitted kitchens double glazing and conservatories as well as developing wider sociological debates on trust and interaction. These organizations tend to be loosely ordered and internally competitive collectives whose sole aim is to maximize short term profits through sales strategies that routinely employ the calculative exploitation of consumer norms and expectations. John Bone uses his findings to argue that amid the wave of increasing deregulation and liberalization that has supplanted the planned and regulated form of capitalism that predominated until the 1970s such conditions are now becoming prevalent in mainstream contemporary organizations threatening to unleash a latent disorder that underlies the rationality of 'modern' business. | The Hard Sell An Ethnographic Study of the Direct Selling Industry

Human Factors and Aerospace Safety An International Journal: Volume 1

Human Factors and Aerospace Safety An International Journal: Volume 1

This title was first published in 2001. There have been significant advances in the engineering design and production standards of the hardware and electronics in commercial aircraft. It is now uncommon for the principal (or sole) cause of an aircraft accident to be a component failure. Human error is now implicated in up to 80 per cent of all civil and military aviation accidents. The human being is now arguably the least reliable component left in the system. This basic premise forms the basis for this international journal. The journal focuses specifically on the human element in the aerospace system and its role in either causing accidents or incidents or in promoting safety. The journal solicits contributions from both academic researchers and practitioners from industry. Human factors and safety are applied sciences and this is reflected in the tone and composition of the papers in the journal. | Human Factors and Aerospace Safety An International Journal: Volume 1

Use of Language Across the Secondary Curriculum

Use of Language Across the Secondary Curriculum

Educational policy is becoming more concerned with the need to ensure that people leave school or college fully literate. We need good oral communicators in the workplace and being able to understand and respond to different kinds of language is vital in today's society. Included here is a detailed and highly readable account of the ways in which language affects every aspect of study - it crosses all subject boundaries yet it is commonly seen as the sole responsibility of the English teacher to manage this area of the curriculum. The first section of the book looks at the ideology behind language while the second section considers how schools and local authorities have tackled improving levels of literacy. The third section is concerned with practical advice on how to teach language most successfully irrespective of subject. Latter sections focus on developing a critical eye and supporting pupils who have particular needs. | Use of Language Across the Secondary Curriculum

Gerard Hastings invites us to explore alternatives to a system that is threatening our survival. He explores what it is to be human how marketing can be used to do good rather than harm and the potential of alternative models that empower us to be citizens not just consumers. Professionals and students in the business marketing public health environmental and political sectors – as well as concerned citizens who know that business as usual is not an option – will value this accessible guide to what is going wrong with our current business models and how these failings can be addressed. | Hyperconsumption Corporate Marketing vs. the Planet

Heritage Ecologies

Heritage Ecologies

Heritage Ecologies presents an ecological understanding of heritage that furthers a concern for how its making and unmaking always involves a wide range of human and other-than-human actors. Recognizing the entangled nature-cultures of heritage is essential in the Anthropocene era where uncertainty and rapid environmental change force us to recast common conceptions of inheritance and to envision new strategies for preservation. Heritage sites are meant to be open and shared spaces and a recurring argument in the cases presented here is that this openness inevitably also overrides our selections orders and appreciations. Through a diverse range of case studies the chapters collected in this book aim to explore the affects and memories engendered by diverse heritage ecologies where humans are neither the sole makers nor the only inheritors. The common call is that the experiential perceptive and informational plenitude enabled through contributions of other-than-human actors is key to an ecological rethinking of heritage in the twenty-first century. Heritage Ecologies is unique in bringing heritage studies into closer proximity with a wide variety of non-representational and object-oriented theories and is an important volume for students and researchers in archaeology and heritage studies.

Hegemony and the US‒Japan Alliance

Hegemony and the US‒Japan Alliance

It is widely recognised that the increasing importance of the US‒Japan alliance is strongly linked to emerging threats in the Asia Pacific with China’s rise and the ambitions of North Korea having brought the two allies closer together. This book however seeks to question whether these factors are indeed the sole determinants of this enduring alliance. A pioneering study conducted through the lens of neo-Gramscianism this book unravels the intricate political dynamism involved in the US‒Japan alliance. It provides an innovative attempt to link the concept of alliances to hegemony and thus examines Japan’s relationship to US dominance in the region. Building on existing scholarship it also seeks to examine how Japan’s continuing dependence on the US and the burden it places of citizens living near US military bases may affect the durability of the alliance in the post-Cold War era. As such this book presents an alternative theoretical tool in the field of international relations to analyse the political nature of the alliance as well as US hegemony in the region. This book will be useful to students and scholars of Japanese Politics and foreign policymaking as well as International Relations and Security Studies more generally. | Hegemony and the US‒Japan Alliance

Public Funding of Religions in Europe

Public Funding of Religions in Europe

This collection brings together legal scholars canonists and political scientists to focus on the issue of public funding in support of religious activities and institutions in Europe.

The War on Terrorism 21st-century Perspectives

The War on Terrorism 21st-century Perspectives

On September 11 2001 a small number of desperate men hoping to earn paradise attacked New York and Washington D. C. Their spectacular acts of destruction concluded America's nearly decade-long vacation from insecurity known as the post-Cold War era. As eras go this one was short and it certainly ended with a bang not a whimper. The United States still sole superpower was now challenged by a bleak new world. Americans do not care for the bleak and do not tolerate it for long. Predictably national shock soon became righteous anger coupled to international campaigns against groups and states held responsible for the scourge of terrorism. These were short-term measures that hurt our enemies but did not fix the problem. Not long after these events the Foreign Policy Research Institute organized a new Center on Terrorism Counterterrorism and Homeland Security. Its purpose was to take a longer term view of the terrorism problem and what might be done about it-not only academic research but also policy suggestions. This book contains a broad selection of the Center's output including essays on American strategy homeland security knowing the enemy and the military dimension. A notable feature is the discussion of the educational issue: what and how to teach our children about terrorism. | The War on Terrorism 21st-century Perspectives

New Directions in Japan’s Security Non-U.S. Centric Evolution

New Directions in Japan’s Security Non-U.S. Centric Evolution

While the US-Japan alliance has strengthened since the end of the Cold War Japan has almost unnoticed been building security ties with other partners in the process reducing the centrality of the US in Japan’s security. This book explains why this is happening. Japan pursued security isolationism during the Cold War but the US was the exception. Japan hosted US bases and held joint military exercises even while shunning contacts with other militaries. Japan also made an exception to its weapons export ban to allow exports to the US. Yet since the end of the Cold War Japan’s security has undergone a quiet transformation moving away from a singular focus on the US as its sole security partner. Tokyo has begun diversifying its security ties. This book traces and explains this diversification. The country has initiated security dialogues with Asian neighbors assumed a leadership role in promoting regional multilateral security cooperation and begun building bilateral security ties with a range of partners from Australia and India to the European Union. Japan has even lifted its ban on weapons exports and co-development with non-US partners. This edited volume explores this trend of decreasing US centrality alongside the continued and perhaps even growing security (inter) dependence with the US. New Directions in Japan’s Security is an essential resource for scholars focused on Japan’s national security. It will also interest on a wider basis those wishing to understand why Japan is developing non-American directions in its security strategy. | New Directions in Japan’s Security Non-U. S.
