British Cotton Textiles: Maturity and Decline

British Cotton Textiles: Maturity and Decline

This book examines the decline of the cotton textiles industry which defined Britain as an industrial nation from its peak in the late nineteenth century to the state of the industry at the end of the twentieth century. Focusing on the owners and managers of cotton businesses the authors examine how they mobilised financial resources; their attitudes to industry structure and technology; and their responses to the challenges posed by global markets. The origins of the problems which forced the industry into decline are not found in any apparent loss of competitiveness during the long nineteenth century but rather in the disastrous reflotation after the First World War. As a consequence of these speculations rationalisation and restructuring became more difficult at the time when they were most needed and government intervention led to a series of partial solutions to what became a process of protracted decline. In the post-1945 period the authors show how government policy encouraged capital withdrawal rather than encouraging the investment needed for restructuring. The examples of corporate success since the Second World War – such as David Alliance and his Viyella Group – exploited government policy access to capital markets and closer relationships with retailers but were ultimately unable to respond effectively to international competition and the challenges of globalisation. A new introduction and epilogue provide an updated framework for the chapters in this book which were originally published in Business History and Accounting Business and Financial History | British Cotton Textiles: Maturity and Decline

The Decline of Established Christianity in the Western World Interpretations and Responses

The Decline of Established Christianity in the Western World Interpretations and Responses

While Church attendance in the West is often cited as being in decline it is argued that this applies primarily to the older established forms of Christianity. Other expressions of the faith are in fact stable or even growing. This volume provides multidisciplinary interpretations of and responses to one of the most complicated and controversial issues regarding the global transformation of Christianity today: the decline of established Christianity in the Western world. It also addresses the future of Christianity in the West after the decline. Drawing upon historical research sociology religious studies philosophy and theology an international panel of contributors provide new theoretical frameworks for understanding this decline and offer creative suggestions for responding to it. Established Christianity is conceptualized as historically culturally socially and politically embedded religion (with or without official established status). This is a dynamic volume that gives fresh perspective on one of the great social changes taking place in the West today. As such it will be of great interest to scholars of religious sociology history and anthropology as well as theologians. | The Decline of Established Christianity in the Western World Interpretations and Responses

The Rise and Decline of Modern Democracy

The Rise and Decline of Modern Democracy

The Rise and Decline of Modern Democracy assesses the rise of subsequent political challenges to and decline of contemporary liberal democratic processes in particular since the ‘third wave’ of democratization from the 1990s. Democracy is in global decline. Fewer countries are democratic and fewer people globally live in substantive democracies. Autocracy is now the dominant political form and the future looks at best challenging for the retention of such democracies that remain. As they did a century ago nationalism and populism have again reared their ugly heads and more people are claiming that democracy no longer addresses their most compelling needs or interests. This book examines what democracy is and the circumstances that allowed – even encouraged – it to arise. Democracy has been a product of a need to find a political model that mediates between competing interests building on conducive conditions. However there have since been fundamental changes to those conditions imbalances within democratic countries and between countries that have diminished the strength of the democratic proposition. The question now arises as to whether democracy can continue as a matter of political will. Challengers to democracy from the radical Right in developed countries to populist autocracy and state-centred authoritarianism in developing countries have increasingly shown this may not be the case. Democracy may survive as this book concludes but is likely to do so only with more substantial and conscious commitment to the democratic project with recognition of the need to replenish the fertility of the political soil in which democracy grows. This wide-ranging and empirically and theoretically rich book will be of interest to students scholars and researchers of political science international relations history and democracy.

The authors investigate who is producing hyperlocal news and why as well as production practices models of community and participatory journalism and the economics of hyperlocal operations. Looking holistically at hyperlocal news Hyperlocal Journalism paints a vivid picture of citizens creating their own news services via social media and on free blogging platforms to hold power to account redress negative reputational geographies and to tell everyday stories of community life.
