High Participation Systems of Higher Education - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

High Participation Systems of Higher Education - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Higher Education has become a central institution of society, building individual knowledge, skills, agency, and relational social networks at unprecedented depth and scale. Within a generation there has been an extraordinary global expansion of Higher Education, in every region in all but the poorest countries, outstripping economic growth and deriving primarily from familial aspirations for betterment. By focusing on the systems and countries that have already achieved near universal participation, High Participation Systems of Higher Education explores this remarkable transformation. The world enrolment ratio, now rising by 10 per cent every decade, is approaching 40 per cent, mostly in degree-granting institutions, including three quarters of young people in North America and Europe. Higher Education systems in the one in three countries that enrol more than 50 per cent are here classified as ''high participation systems''.Part I of the book measures, maps, and explains the growth of participation, and the implications for society and Higher Education itself. Drawing on a wide range of literature and data, the chapters theorize the changes in governance, institutional diversity, and stratification in Higher Education systems, and the subsequent effects in educational and social equity. The theoretical propositions regarding high-participation Higher Education developed in these chapters are then tested in the country case studies in Part II, presenting a comprehensive enquiry into the nature of the emerging ''high participation society''.

Organizations as Wrongdoers - Stephanie Collins - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Organizations as Wrongdoers - Stephanie Collins - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Organizations do moral wrong. States pursue unjust wars, businesses avoid tax, charities misdirect funds. Our social, political, and legal responses require guidance. We need to know what we''re responding to and how we should respond to it. We need a metaphysical and moral theory of wrongful organizations. This book provides a new such theory, paying particular attention to questions that have been underexplored in existing debates. These questions include: where are organizations located as material objects in the natural world? What''s the metaphysical relation between organizations and their members? Can organizations be blameworthy for attitudes and character traits, as well as for actions? What about feelings of guilt, remorse, and shame-can organizations feel these emotions and why does this matter? How and why are members implicated in organizations'' wrongs? How should organizations'' reparative costs be apportioned among members?The book provides provocative answers to these questions. It argues that organizations are material objects with humans as material parts - much like how a pizza is a material object with slices as material parts. This picture helps us make sense of organizations'' blameworthiness, including blame for organization-level actions, attitudes, and character traits. What''s more, organizations can experience moral self-awareness - a crucial component of guilt, remorse, and shame. Members can be implicated in organizations'' actions in numerous ways - and, it is argued, members'' level of implication should determine their share of organizations'' reparative burdens.

Building Bottom-up Health and Disaster Risk Reduction Programmes - Emily Ying Yang Chan - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Building Bottom-up Health and Disaster Risk Reduction Programmes - Emily Ying Yang Chan - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

As a backdrop of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (2016-2030), the United Nations pointed out that more than 6 million children still died before the age of five by 2015. At least 1.8 billion people across the world still consumed fecally contaminated drinking water and 2.4 million lacked access to basic sanitation services such as toilets or latrines, while nearly 1,000 children died every day of preventable water and sanitation-related diarrhoeal diseases. Rural areas fare far worse: Children in rural areas are about 1.7 times more likely to die before their fifth birthday as those in urban areas. About 16 per cent of the rural population do not use improved drinking water sources, compared to 4 per cent of the urban population. About 50 per cent of people living in rural areas lack improved sanitation facilities, compared to only 18 per cent of people in urban areas. Far too many one-off rural on-site public health knowledge transfer projects fail to deliver results in the long run, and the knowledge in question cannot be retained in the rural communities after the NGO and development workers are gone. In addition to external constraints, this is often due to a lack of theoretical understanding among NGO practitioners and volunteers and basis for evaluation and improvement of health relief programmes. Based on public health theories and illustrated by relevant examples, this book introduces how health, emergency and disaster preparedness education programmes could be organised in remote rural Asia, which could become useful reference materials for organisers and volunteers of rural development projects. This book is an introductory to intermediate level textbook and reference book for healthcare professionals, fieldworkers, volunteers and students who are interested in promoting health and emergency and disaster risk reduction.The book is developed from the experience and insights gained from the long-established CCOUC Ethnic Minority Health Project in China. It also incorporates new lessons from CCOUC''s recent projects in Asia countries like Bhutan, Nepal and Democratic People''s Republic of Korea.

Positive Medicine - Dr David (consultant Occupational Physician Beaumont - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Positive Medicine - Dr David (consultant Occupational Physician Beaumont - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

When Ivan Illich published Medical Nemesis in 1975, he offered a withering critique of the medical profession and the medical model. ''The medical establishment has become a major threat to health,'' he said. Nearly half a century has elapsed since then, and things have got worse. In the UK, only 5 per cent of the health budget is spent on prevention. The system is so strained that the rule is often ''one problem per consultation''. Disease management takes precedence over disease prevention, and a wider perspective on health and wellbeing is largely absent. At least once a month, one third of GPs consider leaving the profession. Patients are referred to secondary care simply because primary care cannot cope. But doctors want to practise differently. People also want more. The global health and wellness industry has stepped into the gap. It offers more holistic and whole-person approach that people seek. And it''s big business. It is now estimated to be worth $4.2 trillion per annum.In this book, David Beaumont proposes a better approach. The current healthcare system is a deficit model. It attempts to address and correct the absence of health, so it is therefore more correctly termed a disease-care system. Positive medicine is an abundance model. It aims not only to help people manage illness and disease, but to enhance their health. Although this book is very specifically about doctors and patients, it will resonate with all healthcare professionals.

The EU Structural Funds - Andrew Evans - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Fractions - Prof Peter D. Schumer - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Fractions - Prof Peter D. Schumer - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Fractions are everywhere and yet most of us learn only basic and rather dry facts about fractions in primary school. This book makes fractions come to life in a friendly, lively, and accessible way, detailing the history of fractions and their crucial role in the work of mathematicians from various cultures throughout the ages.The book begins by outlining the importance of rational numbers and links ancient Babylonian mathematics with modern processes for determining their decimal expansions and the period length of repeating decimals, which are worked out in full. This then leads to the study of infinite sums, especially to geometric series and the notions of convergence and divergence. The text goes on to explain the importance of the Fibonacci numbers, as well as the Cantor set and the Sierpiński carpet. Much of elementary number theory is introduced including congruence classes, the Euler phi function, the Euclidean algorithm, and some Diophantine equations. The book also discusses many historical applications of fractions, including Christiaan Huygens''s cogwheeled planetarium and Archimedes''s approximation to the value of pi, as well as an extensive study of the importance of Egyptian fractions. Finally, it outlines modern applications of fractions, such as the fair apportionment of a cake, variations on slicing a pizza, probability questions involving markings on a stick, and ways to divide a bar of gold in order to pay wages for various numbers of days.Accessible to anyone with a passion for the history of mathematics who wishes to delve deeper into the wonderful world of fractions, this book will also be of special interest to teachers of mathematics and students of all ages.

Italy Since 1945 - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Italy Since 1945 - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Short Oxford History of Italy series, in seven volumes, will offer a complete History of Italy from the early middle ages to the present and, in each period, will present the most recent historical perspectives on Italian history. This means setting Italian history in the broader context of European history as a whole. It also means questioning accepted interpretations of Italian history in each of these periods and, in particular, the idea that Italy''s history has been significantly different from that of the rest of Europe. Each volume will emphasise how developments in Italy in each period are best understood as variants on broader European patterns of political, economic social and cultural change. Italy since 1945 sets in context the tremendous changes that Italy has undergone in the last 55 years. In place of the land of pizza, sunshine, and soccer, McCarthy describes a developing nation: an economy that has found its own road to success via the piccole imprese with an increasingly strong stockmarket and more sophisticated banking; a dynamic, traditional, family centred society; and a political system struggling to modernize after forty years of Christian Democrat rule and Communist opposition. McCarthy also looks at the role of the Church, including Pius XII''s wartime activities and the ''foreign pope'', John-Paul II before finally turning to sport in Italy - the only country to have 3 daily newspapers devoted to the subject. Athoritative, accessible, and absorbing, the book examines modern Italy through the eyes of 10 leading commentators and explores the Italian experience in the wider context of both the nation''s past and its wider contemporary European position.

Manufacturing Transformation - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Manufacturing Transformation - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

While it is possible for economies to grow based on abundant land or natural resources, more often structural change-the shift of resources from low-productivity to high-productivity sectors-is the key driver of economic growth. Structural transformation is vital for Africa. The region''s much-lauded growth turnaround since 1995 has been the result of making fewer economic policy mistakes, robust commodity prices, and new discoveries of natural resources. At the same time, Africa''s economic structure has changed very little. Primary commodities and natural resources still account for the bulk of the region''s exports.Industry is most often the leading driver of structural transformation. Africa''s experience with industrialization over the past thirty years has been disappointing. In 2010, sub-Saharan Africa''s average share of manufacturing value added in GDP was ten per cent, unchanged from the 1970s. Actually, the share of medium- and high-tech goods in manufacturing production has been falling since the mid-1990s. Per capita manufactured exports are less than ten per cent of the developing country average. Consequently, Africa''s industrial transformation has yet to take place.This book presents results of comparative country-based research that sought to answer a seemingly simple but puzzling question: why is there so little industry in Africa? It brings together detailed country case studies of industrial policies and industrialization outcomes in eleven countries, conducted by teams of national researchers in partnership with international experts on industrial development. It provides the reader with the most comprehensive description and analysis available to date of the contemporary industrialization experience in low-income Africa.This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 IGO licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.
