Capital and Labour on the Rhodesian Railway System, 1888–1947 - Jon Lunn - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Capital and Labour on the Rhodesian Railway System, 1888–1947 - Jon Lunn - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

This important book is the first in-depth history of the Rhodesian railway system. Covering the period 1888-1947, when the Rhodesian railway system was privately owned by Cecil Rhode''s British South Africa Company, this book uses the Rhodesian railway system as a prism through which it refracts many dimensions of the imperial experience in central and southern Africa, ranging from the impulses underpinning the regional ambitions of Rhodes himself to the origins of black worker protest in the Rhodesias.

Politics, Social Theory, Utopia and the World-System - C. El Ojeili - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Politics, Social Theory, Utopia and the World-System - C. El Ojeili - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

It is common to hear that we live in unique, turbulent and crisis-ridden times and this turbulence, transformation and crisis are said to be deeply significant - perhaps threatening - for the human sciences. Responding to such claims, this book provides an accessible engagement with pressing contemporary topics, such as violence, social movements, equality, identity and democracy. Foregrounding the imagination of possibilities (utopia), the mapping of the present (theory), and the transformation of the world-system (historical and global questions), the book surveys central issues and paradigms in contemproary political sociology, urging a recommitment to certain concepts and traditions for guidance in thinking and acting in the world.

The Fiscal Crisis of the United Kingdom - I. Mclean - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

The Fiscal Crisis of the United Kingdom - I. Mclean - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

The system for allocating public expenditure to the nations and regions of the UK has broken down. Money goes to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland by the notorious Barnett formula, but this is collapsing and cannot last long. Money goes to the English regions by poorly-understood formulae that work badly. People in every region think that the system is unfair to them. The Fiscal Crisis of the United Kingdom suggests how the system could be fixed, drawing lessons from Australia and Canada. It recommends a Territorial Grants Commission.

Constructing Sexualities and Gendered Bodies in School Spaces - Jon Ingvar Kjaran - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Constructing Sexualities and Gendered Bodies in School Spaces - Jon Ingvar Kjaran - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

This book sheds light on how sexuality and gender intersect in producing heteronormativity within the school system in Iceland. In spite of recent support for progressive policies regarding sexual and gender equality in the country, there remains a discrepancy between policy and practice with respect to LGBTQ rights and attitudes within the school system. This book draws on ethnographic data and interviews with LGBTQ students in high schools across the country and reveals that, although Nordic countries are sometimes portrayed as queer utopias, the school system in Iceland has a long road ahead in making schools more inclusive for all students.

Coleridge, the Bible, and Religion - Jeffrey W. Barbeau - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Coleridge, the Bible, and Religion - Jeffrey W. Barbeau - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Barbeau reconstructs the system of religion that Coleridge develops in Confessions of an Inquiring Spirit (1840). Coleridge''s late system links four sources of divinity the Bible, the traditions of the church, the interior work of the Spirit, and the inspired preacher to Christ, the Word. In thousands of marginalia and private notebook entries, Coleridge challenges traditional views of the formation and inspiration of the Bible, clarifies the role of the church in biblical interpretation, and elucidates the relationship between the objective and subjective sources of revelation. In late writings that develop a robust system of religion, Coleridge conveys his commitment to biblical wisdom.
