Distributive Justice Debates in Political and Social Thought Perspectives on Finding a Fair Share

Distributive Justice Debates in Political and Social Thought Perspectives on Finding a Fair Share

Who has what and why in our societies is a pressing issue that has prompted explanation and exposition by philosophers politicians and jurists for as long as societies and intellectuals have existed. It is a primary issue for a society to tackle this and these answers have been diverse. This collection of essays approaches some of these questions and answers to shed light on neglected approaches to issues of distribution and how these issues have been dealt with historically socially conceptually and practically. The volume moves away from the more dominating and traditionally cast understandings of distributive justice and shows novel and unique ways to approach distributive issues and how these can help enlighten our course of action and thought today by creating new pathways of understanding. The editors and contributors challenge readers by exploring the role and importance of restorative justice within distributive justice exploring the long shadow of practices of trusteeship and concepts of social and individual rights and obligations in welfare and economic systems social protection/provision schemes egalitarian practices and post-colonial African political thought. Distributive Justice Debates in Political and Social Thought empowers the reader to cast a more critical and historically complete light on the idea of a fair share and the implications it has on societies and the individuals who comprise them. | Distributive Justice Debates in Political and Social Thought Perspectives on Finding a Fair Share

Power and Distribution Transformers Practical Design Guide

Power and Distribution Transformers Practical Design Guide

This book is based on the author's 50+ years experience in the power and distribution transformer industry. The first few chapters of the book provide a step-by-step procedures of transformer design. Engineers without prior knowledge or exposure to design can follow the procedures and calculation methods to acquire reasonable proficiency necessary to designing a transformer. Although the transformer is a mature product engineers working in the industry need to understand its fundamentals oand design to enable them to offer products to meet the challenging demands of the power system and the customer. This book can function as a useful guide for practicing engineers to undertake new designs cost optimization design automation etc. without the need for external help or consultancy. The book extensively covers the design processes with necessary data and calculations from a wide variety of transformers including dry-type cast resin transformers amorphous core transformers earthing transformers rectifier transformers auto transformers transformers for explosive atmospheres and solid-state transformers. The other subjects covered include carbon footprint salculation of transformers condition monitoring of transformers and design optimization techniques. In addition to being useful for the transformer industry this book can serve as a reference for power utility engineers consultants research scholars and teaching faculty at universities. | Power and Distribution Transformers Practical Design Guide

Aftermath Legacies and Memories of War in Europe 1918–1945–1989

Aftermath Legacies and Memories of War in Europe 1918–1945–1989

Focusing on three of the defining moments of the twentieth century - the end of the two World Wars and the collapse of the Iron Curtain - this volume presents a rich collection of authoritative essays covering a wide range of thematic regional temporal and methodological perspectives. By re-examining the traumatic legacies of the century’s three major conflicts the volume illuminates a number of recurrent yet differentiated ideas concerning memorialisation mythologisation mobilisation commemoration and confrontation reconstruction and representation in the aftermath of conflict. The post-conflict relationship between the living and the dead the contestation of memories and legacies of war in cultural and political discourses and the significance of generations are key threads binding the collection together. While not claiming to be the definitive study of so vast a subject the collection nevertheless presents a series of enlightening historical and cultural perspectives from leading scholars in the field and it pushes back the boundaries of the burgeoning field of the study of legacies and memories of war. Bringing together historians literary scholars political scientists and cultural studies experts to discuss the legacies and memories of war in Europe (1918-1945-1989) the collection makes an important contribution to the ongoing interdisciplinary conversation regarding the interwoven legacies of twentieth-century Europe’s three major conflicts. | Aftermath Legacies and Memories of War in Europe 1918–1945–1989

Algarve Building Modernism Regionalism and Architecture in the South of Portugal 1925-1965

Algarve Building Modernism Regionalism and Architecture in the South of Portugal 1925-1965

Foreword by Adrian Forty. The Algarve is not only Portugal’s foremost tourism region. Uniquely Mediterranean in an Atlantic country its building customs have long been markers of historical and cultural specificity attracting both picturesque driven conservatives and modernists seeking their lineage. Modernism regionalism and the ‘vernacular’ – three essential tropes of twentieth-century architecture culture – converged in the region’s building identity construct and often the subject of strictly metropolitan elaborations they are examined here from a peripheral standpoint instead. Drawing on work that won the Royal Institute of British Architects President’s Award for Outstanding PhD Thesis in 2013 Algarve Building challenges the conventional inclusion of Portuguese modern architecture in ‘Critical Regionalism’ narratives. A fine-grain reconstruction of the debates and cultures at play locally exposes the extra-architectural and widely participated antecedents of the much-celebrated mid-century shift towards the regional. Uncelebrated architects and a cast of other players (clients officials engineers and builders) contributed to maturing a regional strand of modern architecture that more than being the heroic outcome of a hard-fought ‘battle’ by engaged designers against a conservative establishment became truly popular in the Algarve. Algarve Building shows more broadly what the processes that have been appropriated by the canon of architectural history and theory – such as the presence of folk traditions and regional variation in learned architecture – stand to gain when observed in local everyday practices. The grand narratives and petites histoires of architecture can be enriched questioned revised and confirmed by an unprejudiced return to its facts and sources – the buildings the documents the discourses the agents and the archives. | Algarve Building Modernism Regionalism and Architecture in the South of Portugal 1925-1965
