Erdoğan’s ‘New’ Turkey Attempted Coup d’état and the Acceleration of Political Crisis

Erdoğan’s ‘New’ Turkey Attempted Coup d’état and the Acceleration of Political Crisis

Demonstrating how Turkey’s politics have developed this book focuses on the causes and consequences of the failed coup d'état of 15 July 2016. The momentous event and its aftermath challenges us to ask if the coup was the cause of Turkey’s present crisis or simply an accelerant of trends already in motion and thus a catalyst for the realization of Erdoğan’s latent authoritarian impulses. Bringing together approaches from politics sociology history and anthropology the chapters shed much-needed light on these crucial questions. They offer scholars and nonspecialists alike a comprehensive overview of the implications of the coup attempt and its aftermath on the issues of religion democracy the Kurds the state resistance and more besides. Its effects have been felt in almost every aspect of Turkish society from religion to politics yet it came at a time when Turkey was already experiencing significant social and political turmoil under the increasingly authoritarian leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Readers interested in contemporary politics Turkish and Middle Eastern studies will find the volume useful as they ponder other cases in this era of democratic retrenchment and global turmoil. | Erdoğan’s ‘New’ Turkey Attempted Coup d’état and the Acceleration of Political Crisis

Temporal Boundaries of Law and Politics Time Out of Joint

Temporal Boundaries of Law and Politics Time Out of Joint

In the last decade the changing role of time in society has once again taken centre stage in the academic debate. A prominent but surely not the only aspect of this debate hinges on the so-called acceleration of time and its societal consequences. Despite the fact that time is fundamental to the way in which law and politics function the influence of the contemporary experience of time on law and politics remains underdeveloped. How for example does society’s structural acceleration impact on justice? Does law actually offer stability and predictability in an ever-changing global world? How can legal and political institutions function in the wake of ever-increasing uncertainty? Both law and politics employ time to order society but they are also limited in what can be effectuated by time. It is this very tension between temporal possibilities and limitations that the contributors to this collection – drawn from different fields of law as well as from other disciplines – examine. | Temporal Boundaries of Law and Politics Time Out of Joint

Domingo de Soto and the Early Galileo Essays on Intellectual History

Domingo de Soto and the Early Galileo Essays on Intellectual History

The unifying theme in this second volume of essays by William A. Wallace to be published in the Variorum series is signaled in the title of the opening paper: 'Domingo de Soto and the Iberian roots of Galileo's science'. The seven essays in the first part provide textual studies of Soto's early formulations of the laws of falling bodies the context in which they were developed in the 16th century and the ways in which they were transmitted in Spain and Portugal to the early 17th century mainly by Jesuit scholars. The following essays focus on the young Galileo and his work at Pisa and Padua leading to his discovery of the law of uniform acceleration in free fall. Textual evidence is presented for an indirect influence of Soto's work on Galileo mediated by Jesuits who were teaching at Padua in the first decade of the 17th century. | Domingo de Soto and the Early Galileo Essays on Intellectual History

Changing Representations of Nature and the City The 1960s-1970s and their Legacies

Changing Representations of Nature and the City The 1960s-1970s and their Legacies

The turn of the 1960s-70s characterized by the rapid acceleration of globalization prompted a radical transformation in the perception of urban and natural environments. The urban revolution and related prospect of the total urbanisation of the planet in concert with rapid population growth and resource exploitation instigated a surge in environmental awareness and activism. One implication of this moment is a growing recognition of the integration and interconnection of natural and urban entities. The present collection is an interdisciplinary inquiry into the changing modes of representation of nature in the city beginning from the turn of the 1960s/70s. Bringing together a number of different disciplinary approaches including architectural studies and aesthetics heritage studies and economics environmental science and communication the collection reflects upon the changing perception of socio-natures in the context of increasing urban expansion and global interconnectedness as they are/were manifest in specific representations. Using cases studies from around the globe the collection offers a historical and theoretical understanding of a paradigmatic shift whose material and symbolic legacies are still accompanying us in the early 21st century. | Changing Representations of Nature and the City The 1960s-1970s and their Legacies

Out of Hiding Extremist White Supremacy and How It Can be Stopped

Out of Hiding Extremist White Supremacy and How It Can be Stopped

Out of Hiding: Extremist White Supremacy and How It Can Be Stopped explains how white supremacist extremism endures the varied forms it takes its relationship with systemic racism and what to do about it. The book draws on more than 30 years of extensive data and direct experiences with extremists to describe how white supremacy moved into the spotlight during the first two decades of the 21st century. The argument focuses on three moments between 2008 and today during which white supremacists took opportunities to move from pockets of underground activism to violent protests across the United States. The authors offer a corrective to observers who mischaracterize today’s racial extremism as a new form of ‘alt-right’ conservatism or ‘white nationalism’ emanating from an isolated poorly educated and economically disenfranchised online fringe. These misunderstandings reflect the limited attention given to the varied and persistent forms of racial extremism that have long simmered in America and an inability to acknowledge the appeal white supremacist messages can hold for a broad swath of the U. S. population. This volume contributes a longer view than other books to demonstrate that today’s white supremacy is less a unique eruption than a continuation –and an acceleration –of longstanding U. S. white supremacy. This is essential reading for scholars and activists interested in racism white supremacy and far-right extremism. | Out of Hiding Extremist White Supremacy and How It Can be Stopped

Accounting at War The Politics of Military Finance

Accounting at War The Politics of Military Finance

Accounting is frequently portrayed as a value free mechanism for allocating resources and ensuring they are employed in the most efficient manner. Contrary to this popular opinion the research presented in Accounting at War demonstrates that accounting for military forces is primarily a political practice. Throughout history military force has been so pervasive that no community of any degree of complexity has succeeded in. Through to the present day for all nation states accounting for the military and its operations has primarily served broader political purposes. From the Crimean War to the War on Terror accounting has been used to assert civilian control over the military instill rational business practices on war and create the visibilities and invisibilities necessary to legitimize the use of force. Accounting at War emphasizes the significant power that financial and accounting controls gave to political elites and the impact of these controls on military performance. Accounting at War examines the effects of these controls in wars such as the Crimean South African and Vietnam wars. Accounting at War also emphasizes how accounting has provided the means to rationalize and normalize violence which has often contributed to the acceleration and expansion of war. Aimed at researchers and academics in the fields of accounting accounting history political management and sociology Accounting at War represents a unique and critical perspective to this cutting-edge research field. | Accounting at War The Politics of Military Finance

Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child Time for Slow Pedagogies in Early Childhood Education

Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child Time for Slow Pedagogies in Early Childhood Education

This book explores the relationship with time in early childhood by arguing for the valuing of slow pedagogies and slow knowledge. Alison Clark points to alternative practices in Early Childhood Education and Care that enable a different pace and rhythm against the backdrop of the acceleration in early childhood and the proliferation of testing and measurement. Diverse approaches are explored to enable an ‘unhurried child’ and less hurried adults. Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child is divided in three parts. Part 1 Reasons to be slow looks at the pressures in Early Childhood Education and Care to speed up and for children to be ‘readied’ for the next stage. The book then explores different relationships with time for young children and educators. Part 2 Slow pedagogies and practices explore some of the forms slow practices can take including outdoors in the studio in everyday routines through stories in pedagogical documentation and in ‘slow’ research. Part 3 Moving forward shows what a ‘timefull’ approach to ECEC can look like whilst debating the challenges and possibilities that exist. The book serves as a catalyst for urgent discussion about the need to slow down in early childhood education and teacher education and explores case studies of where slow early childhood education are already happening. It will be a key reading for researchers practitioners and policy-makers about the relationship with time in early childhood and the importance of taking a longer view. | Slow Knowledge and the Unhurried Child Time for Slow Pedagogies in Early Childhood Education

The Platform of Agile Management And the Program to Implement It

The Platform of Agile Management And the Program to Implement It

Facing the amplitude and the acceleration of changes management must also change and it must become alert adaptable and agile. The children of the Internet the likes of Google Amazon Facebook and Tesla are born agile and they challenge the traditional organizations that have long lost their original agility. The latter may have innovated externally i. e. on the market-oriented part of their organization. Yet internally their mindset their models and their methods have remained tightly trapped in traditional tenets. Confronted with the need for deep changes an increasing number of business-leaders launch change-management programs yet conceived and carried out in traditional ways up to 70% of them result in partial or total failure. Management cannot innovate itself it needs people with the right motivation and with the right mind-set. However stuck in the old system people can only keep working in the old ways and means. Thus the leadership must start by replacing a traditional system with a new and agile one which will unbridle entrepreneurship. The Platform of Agile Management and the Program to Implement It combines 3 principles that help to innovate thinking 3 paradigms to innovate behaviours and 3 practices to innovate and to accelerate actions. The proposed platform is comprehensive connective and congenial. It is implemented with an agile program that combines top down push by the leadership with the bottom up pulled by the people. Then the proposed platform will generate continuous improvements and innovations of the performance drivers. | The Platform of Agile Management And the Program to Implement It

Complexity and Leadership

Complexity and Leadership

Leading organisations in our contemporary world means grappling with unpredictability painful pressures and continual conflict all in the context of an acceleration in the pace of change. We expect the impossible from heroic leaders and they rarely live up to expectations. With countless recommendations self-help books and new concepts scholars and management consultants often simplify and dream unrealistically. This book challenges the more orthodox discourse on leadership and presents a way of thinking about leadership that pays closer attention to experience. The contributors in this book all senior managers or facilitators of leadership development resist easy solutions new typologies or unrealistic prescriptions. Writing about their experiences in Denmark the UK Israel Ethiopia South Africa and beyond they are less concerned with traits that people can possess and learn or magical promises of recipes for success and more with the socio-political process of the interaction between people from which leadership emerges as a theme. We focus on understanding leadership as a practice within which communication research imagination and ethical judgements are continuously improvised. So rather than idealising leadership or reducing it to soothing tools and techniques we suggest how leaders might become more politically emotionally and socially savvy. This book is written for academics and practitioners with an interest in the everyday challenges of both individual and group practices of formal and informal leaders in different types of organisations and is an ideal resource for executives and students on leadership development programmes. We hope this volume will help readers to expand the wisdom found in their own experience and discover for themselves and for others a greater sense of freedom. | Complexity and Leadership

New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education

New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education

This book focuses on new perspectives on assessment in translator and interpreting education and suggests that assessment is not only a measure of learning (i. e. assessment ‘of’ learning) but also part of the learning process (i. e. assessment ‘for’ learning and assessment ‘as’ learning). To this end the book explores the current and changing practices of the role and nature of assessment not only in terms of the products but also the processes of translation. It includes empirical studies which examine competence-based assessment and quality in translation and interpreting education both at undergraduate and postgraduate level. This includes studies and proposals on formative and summative assessment in a wide range of educational contexts as well as contributions about relatively unexplored research areas such as quality assurance and assessment in subtitling for the D/deaf and the hard of hearing and how closely translation programmes fit the reality of professional practice. The findings of this book lend support to existing theoretical frameworks and inform course planning and design in translation education. As such it will be a valuable resource for translation educators trainers and researchers translation and interpreting practitioners and associated professionals.

Understanding Profound Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities in Adults

Understanding Profound Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities in Adults

This book explores what happens to people with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD) when they reach adulthood. It provides an examination of various terms and definitions in use and a critical exploration of current UK policies. The author brings a wealth of many years’ experience as a family carer independent consultant and trainer to demonstrate the significant changes that a person-centred specialised therapeutic and incremental approach can make to an individual’s life. Advances in medical science mean more than ever people with (PIMD) are growing into adulthood. What is this experience like for an adult who needs support in all aspects of their life? How do we include them in planning support when their intellectual disability means they cannot tell us first hand what they want or need? Too often this group are overlooked or considered as an afterthought in policy and planning. Notions of independence employment and mainstream inclusion are all problematic policy ideas for this group of people. Within one-size-fits-all service planning this focus means there is less capacity to meet their life-long specialist complex and individualised needs. Understanding Profound and Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities in Adults is essential reading for anyone who is involved in the lives of adults with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities whether as a researcher student carer or policy-maker. | Understanding Profound Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities in Adults
