Women Families and the British Army 1700–1880 Vol 4

Women Families and the British Army 1700–1880 Vol 4

This series concentrates on women and the soldiers in the ranks whose lives they shared assembling a wide body of evidence of their romantic entanglements and domestic concerns. The new military history of recent decades has demanded a broadening of the source base beyond elite accounts or those that concentrate solely on battlefield experiences. Armies did not operate in isolation and men’s family ties influenced the course of events in a variety of ways. Campfollowing women and children occupied a liminal space in campaign life. Those who travelled on the strength of the army received rations in return for providing services such as laundry and nursing but they could also be grouped with prostitutes and condemned as a ‘burden’ by officers. Parents wives and offspring left behind at home remained in soldiers’ thoughts despite an army culture aimed at replacing kin with regimental ties. Soldiers’ families’ suffering both on the march and back in Britain attracted public attention at key points in this period as well. This series provides for the first time in one place a wide body of texts relating to common soldiers’ personal lives: the women with whom they became involved their children and the families who cared for them. It brings hitherto unpublished material into print for the first time and resurrects accounts that have not been in wide circulation since the nineteenth century. The collection combines the observations of officers government officials and others with memoirs and letters from men in the ranks and from the women themselves. It draws extensively on press accounts especially in the nineteenth century. It also demonstrates the value of using literary depictions alongside the letters diaries memoirs and war office papers that form the traditional source base of military historians. This fourth volume covers the period from the Treaty of Paris to the Declaration of War in 1854. | Women Families and the British Army 1700–1880 Vol 4

The Search for the Self Volume 4: Selected Writings of Heinz Kohut 1978-1981

The Search for the Self Volume 4: Selected Writings of Heinz Kohut 1978-1981

The re-issuing of the four volumes of the author's writings is a major publishing event for psychoanalysts who are interested in both the theoretical and the therapeutic aspects of psychoanalysis. These volumes contain the author's pre-self psychology essays as well as those he wrote in order to continue to expand on his groundbreaking ideas which he presented in The Analysis of the Self; the Restoration of the Self; and in How Does Analysis Cure? These volumes of The Search for the Self permit the reader to understand not only the above three basic texts of psychoanalytic self psychology more profoundly but also to appreciate Kohut's sustained openness to further changes - to dare to present his self psychology as in continued flux influenced by newly emerging empirical data of actual clinical practice. The current re-issue of the four volumes of The Search for the Self would assure that the younger generation of psychoanalysts would be exposed to a clinical theory that could contribute greatly to solving the therapeutic dilemmas facing psychoanalysis today. This is volume four. | The Search for the Self Volume 4: Selected Writings of Heinz Kohut 1978-1981

Social Changes Crime and Police International Conference June 1– 4 1992 Budapest Hungary

Social Changes Crime and Police International Conference June 1– 4 1992 Budapest Hungary

Originally published in 1995 Social Changes Crime and the Police studies the relationship of social change and crime the role of the police amidst changing social conditions and the reaction of society and the state to the criminal problem. It examines the essential differences and challenges which confronted countries in Western and Eastern Europe after the collapse of the socialist system. In recent years many areas of Europe had experienced a period of rapid technological development which had changed economic and cultural structures creating temporary instability. Within a relatively short period of time traditional values and beliefs had been undermined. National boundaries and geographical differences had gradually lost their significance and the opening of frontiers had created easier conditions for crime. The nature of crime itself had been transformed by the increasingly close relationships between countries. While many Eastern European countries sought to undo the authoritarian legacies of the socialist period Western Europe faced new challenges to its urban order. The editors and the contributors also examine the kinds of new policing concepts which may be formulated and the new practices which may develop during the next few decades. Governments must determine the role of the police and the law in accordance with public demands for powerful policing combined with consideration of the individual’s rights thus maintaining the vital balance between personal freedom and social peace. | Social Changes Crime and Police International Conference June 1– 4 1992 Budapest Hungary

Lean Construction 4.0 Driving a Digital Revolution of Production Management in the AEC Industry

Lean Construction 4.0 Driving a Digital Revolution of Production Management in the AEC Industry

This book introduces and develops the novel concept of Lean Construction 4. 0. The capability of Lean Construction to effectively adapt the architecture-engineering-construction (AEC) industry to this new era of digital transformation requires a reconceptualization of the triad people-processes-technology as a foundation for the theoretical and practical framework of Lean Construction. Therefore a shift towards Lean Construction 4. 0 is required. Lean Construction 4. 0 is a new systems-wide thinking approach where synergies and overlaps between Lean Construction and digital/smart technologies go far beyond BIM to reshape the way we design manage and operate capital projects in the modern age of automation. This pioneering new book brings together the views of world experts at the interface of Lean Construction and digital/smart technologies in order to channel research efforts to introduce and discuss current research and practice challenges and drivers and future perspectives of Lean Construction 4. 0. It is not the aim of the book to keep adding digits to the term ‘Lean Construction’ to ‘catch up’ with the industry revolutions as they go on. Instead after reading this book it will be undeniable for readers that the triad process-people-technology as proposed by Lean Construction 4. 0 is required to achieve an effective long-lasting digital transformation of the AEC industry. Thus the aim of Lean Construction 4. 0 is better explained by what it evokes: a future vision of construction systems comprising people processes and technology using Industry 4. 0/5. 0 as a basis for technological innovation in the AEC industry coupled with Lean Construction theory and practice as a jettison for improved processes and systems integration. The Lean Construction 4. 0 concept coined and developed in this edited book is unique and the chapters provide practitioners and academics with a provocative reflection on the theoretical and practical aspects that shape the Lean Construction 4. 0 concept. More importantly Lean Construction 4. 0 proposes a rationale for the AEC industry not only to survive but to thrive! | Lean Construction 4. 0 Driving a Digital Revolution of Production Management in the AEC Industry

Risk and Responsibility in Context

Risk and Responsibility in Context

This volume bridges contemporary philosophical conceptions of risk and responsibility and offers an extensive examination of the topic. It shows that risk and responsibility combine in ways that give rise to new philosophical questions and problems. Philosophical interest in the relationship between risk and responsibility continues to rise due in no small part to environmental crises emerging technologies legal developments and new medical advances. Despite such interest scholars are still working out how to conceive of the links between risk and responsibility the implications that risks may have to conceptions of responsibility (and vice versa) as well as how such theorizing might play out in applied cases. With contributions from leading scholars this volume brings together new work examining the interplay between risk and responsibility exploring its varied philosophical aspects and applications to contemporary issues in law bioethics technology and environmental ethics. Risk and Responsibility in Context will be of interest to philosophers working in ethics bioethics philosophy of law and philosophy of technology as well as scholars and practitioners in law health and science management public policy and environmental studies.
