Constructions of Agency in American Literature on the War of Independence War as Action 1775-1860

Constructions of Agency in American Literature on the War of Independence War as Action 1775-1860

This book argues that the negotiation of agency is central not only to the experience of war but also to its representation in cultural expressions ranging from a notion of disablement expressed in victimization immobilization traumatization and death to enablement expressed in the perpetration of heroic courageous skillful and powerful actions of assertion and dominance. In order to illustrate this thesis it provides a comprehensive analysis of literary representations of the American War of Independence from 1775 the beginning of the war up until roughly 1860 when the Civil War marked a decisive historical turning point. As the first national war it has an unquestionably exemplary status for the development of American conceptions of war. The in-depth study of exemplary texts from a variety of genres and by authors like Thomas Paine Benjamin Franklin James Fenimore Cooper Catharine Sedgwick William Gilmore Simms and Herman Melville demonstrates that the overall character of Revolutionary War literature presents the war as a forum in which collective and individual agency is expressed defended and cultivated. It uses the military environment in order to teach the values of discipline and self-subordination to a communal good which are perceived as basic principles of a Republican virtue to guide the actions of the autonomous individual in a popular democracy. | Constructions of Agency in American Literature on the War of Independence War as Action 1775-1860

Improving College Student Retention New Developments in Theory Research and Practice

Improving College Student Retention New Developments in Theory Research and Practice

Higher education institutions have already begun to see decreasing enrollment numbers even as higher education enrollment is predicted to drop precipitously starting in 2025. Much of the decrease in enrollment will be driven by demographic trends about which higher education institutions can do little making the retention of students who do enroll that much more important. Overall retention rates have stagnated and differential retention rates by race and ethnicity have persisted. If higher education institutions researchers and policy makers are to improve retention rates a critical examination of the current state and future directions of retention research is essential. This edited volume begins that examination by addressing several questions: What are the needed directions in theory and research on college student persistence and how do we translate new theory and research into effective practices? Are we asking the right questions looking in the right places or trying to apply out-of-date theories to new populations? In short how can the research community help institutions improve retention in this challenging time? | Improving College Student Retention New Developments in Theory Research and Practice

A Strategic Approach to the UK Construction Industry

A Strategic Approach to the UK Construction Industry

The construction industry is a microcosm of the economy as a whole and as such the economics of the sector contains many of the aspects of the economy in general albeit with fascinating and unique features. What are the implications of economic theory for the future of UK construction? How does the industry ensure innovation quality and efficiency? What priorities might best serve the construction industry those working in it and their customers?In seeking answers to these and other questions the UK government has commissioned a number of reports on the construction industry including the Latham and Egan reports and more recently Construction 2025. These have invariably proposed time and cost targets for the construction industry. In this new book Stephen Gruneberg stands in stark contrast to those reports and presents the relevant theoretical aspects of construction economics to account for the behaviour of construction firms and suggest a strategy for future growth and sustainability. He discusses the theory and data relating to the output of firms in relation to the type of firm the market and how these firms behave as a result. The purpose of this book is to advocate the measures needed to create the kind of industry that must be fostered to ensure the quality of its output sustainability and the fair terms and conditions of employment for its workforce. Gruneberg’s new book is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the economic forces that determine industry outcomes and who has a stake in the success of the UK construction sector. | A Strategic Approach to the UK Construction Industry

Ethnomethodology Conversation Analysis and Constructive Analysis On Formal Structures of Practical Action

Ethnomethodology Conversation Analysis and Constructive Analysis On Formal Structures of Practical Action

This book revisits the arguments by which Harvey Sacks and Harold Garfinkel opposed the widespread attempt in the social sciences to construct disciplinary theories and methods in place of common-sense knowledge of human action and proposed instead an alternative that would investigate the organised methods of natural language use and common-sense reasoning that constitute social orders – arguments that led to the establishment and proliferation of ethnomethodology and conversation analysis. As the very constructive analysis that they opposed has begun to be incorporated into influential lines of research in ethnomethodology and conversation analysis the authors return to the founding insights of the field and reiterate the importance of Garfinkel and Sacks’ original and controversial proposals for an alternate sociology of practical action and practical reasoning. Showing how constructive analysis has become entrenched in ethnomethodology and conversation analysis and arguing for a need to re-boot these approaches this volume constitutes a call for a renewal of the radical alternative proposed by Garfinkel and Sacks. | Ethnomethodology Conversation Analysis and Constructive Analysis On Formal Structures of Practical Action

Hard Lessons Reflections on Governance and Crime Control in Late Modernity

Hard Lessons Reflections on Governance and Crime Control in Late Modernity

Originally published in 2004. The essays in this engaging book catalogue a wide and varied range of instances where 'things go wrong' in the practices of criminal justice. The contributions document instances where laws policies and practices have produced unintended consequences of the most deleterious kind drawing attention to the prison system 'boot camps' detention centres and specific penal policies such as the 'short sharp shock' parental penalty and 'three strikes and you're out'. Also examined are policing practices such as 'zero tolerance' 'saturation policing' and punitive laws in the areas of drug use sex offences and prostitution. It is demonstrated that in each of these cases the objectives of government resulted in the creation of new and unforeseen problems requiring further reform of the criminal justice system. This is a familiar tale characteristic of the modernist impulses of contemporary government based on the notion that crime can be identified managed and controlled through the application and administration of institutionalised polices and practices. The present culture of 'high crime' - despite a top-heavy apparatus of crime control - appears to indicate the very opposite. | Hard Lessons Reflections on Governance and Crime Control in Late Modernity
