The Making of Place and People in the Danish Metropolis A Sociohistory of Copenhagen North West

The Making of Place and People in the Danish Metropolis A Sociohistory of Copenhagen North West

This book investigates the sociohistorical making of place and people in Copenhagen from around 1900 to the present day. Drawing inspiration from Pierre Bourdieu’s sociology of social space and symbolic power and from Loïc Wacquant’s hypothesis of advanced marginality and territorial stigmatisation the book explores the genesis and development of the notorious neighbourhood of Copenhagen North West. As an extraordinary place the North West provides an illustrative case of Danish welfare and urban history that questions the epitome on inclusive Copenhagen. Through detailed empirical analysis the book spotlights three angles and entanglements of the social history of this area of Copenhagen: the production of socio-spatial constructions and authoritative categorisations of the neighbourhood especially by the state and the media; the local social pedagogical interventions and symbolic boundary drawings by welfare agencies in the neighbourhood; and the residents’ subjective experiences of place social divisions and (dis)honour. In this way The Making of Place and People in the Danish Metropolis analyses how social symbolical and spatial structures dynamically intertwine and contribute to the fashioning of divisions of inequality and marginality in the city over the course of some 125 years. It will appeal to scholars of sociology urban studies and urban history with interests in social welfare. | The Making of Place and People in the Danish Metropolis A Sociohistory of Copenhagen North West

Grey Funnel Lines Traditional Song & Verse of the Royal Navy 1900-1970

Grey Funnel Lines Traditional Song & Verse of the Royal Navy 1900-1970

Originally published in 1987. In this book we find songs reflecting every aspect of life in the twentieth-century Royal Navy both upper and lower deck: war ship’s routine aviation submarines the antics of dockyard personnel not to mention the matelot’s shore-going adventures both amorous and bibulous. The compiler was well-known as a folk-singer though he began his career in the Royal Navy. Based on his personal collection of Navy songs this book proves that the sailor’s muse did not desert him with the passing of the sailing ship. It also dispels the notion that the modern Jack Tar when he produces any songs at all confines himself to the pornographic. With the songs Cyril Tawney interweaves a commentary on the Royal Navy setting providing a backdrop to the sailor’s own words. This book is of enduring appeal to all who have served as well as to students of twentieth-century oral tradition. | Grey Funnel Lines Traditional Song & Verse of the Royal Navy 1900-1970

Examining the Past and Shaping the Future The Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse

Examining the Past and Shaping the Future The Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse

The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse (2013– 17) was one of the largest public inquiries in Australian history and one of the most important investigations into child abuse internationally. It facilitated a national conversation about justice for victims and survivors and how to improve child safety in the future. Through the examination of practices in key social institutions including churches schools sporting clubs hospitals and voluntary organisations it provided new understandings of the widespread abuse that many people had experienced in the past and it made recommendations for a national redress scheme. The Royal Commission also recommended sweeping reforms in policies practices and institutional cultures. Offering valuable insights into the Royal Commission’s history and background its social and cultural significance and its implications for policy development and legislative reform this book provides a wide-ranging analysis of the work of the Royal Commission and its social psychological legal and discursive impact. The chapters reveal not only the complexity of the matters that the Royal Commission was dealing with and the difficulties faced by the victims of child sexual abuse but also the challenges of researching and writing about this sensitive topic. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Australian Studies. | Examining the Past and Shaping the Future The Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse

Revealing Britain’s Systemic Racism The Case of Meghan Markle and the Royal Family

Revealing Britain’s Systemic Racism The Case of Meghan Markle and the Royal Family

Revealing Britain’s Systemic Racism applies an existing scholarly paradigm (systemic racism and the white racial frame) to assess the implications of Markle’s entry and place in the British royal family including an analysis that bears on visual and material culture. The white racial frame as it manifests in the UK represents an important lens through which to map and examine contemporary racism and related inequities. By questioning the long-held but largely anecdotal beliefs about racial progressiveness in the UK the authors provide an original counter-narrative about how Markle’s experiences as a biracial member of the royal family can help illumine contemporary forms of racism in Britain. Revealing Britain’s Systemic Racism identifies and documents the plethora of ways systemic racism continues to shape ecological spaces in the UK. Kimberley Ducey and Joe R. Feagin challenge romanticized notions of racial inclusivity by applying Feagin’s long-established work aiming to make a unique and significant contribution to literature in sociology and in various other disciplines. | Revealing Britain’s Systemic Racism The Case of Meghan Markle and the Royal Family

The Professionalisation of Human Resource Management Personnel Development and the Royal Charter

The Professionalisation of Human Resource Management Personnel Development and the Royal Charter

Evolving economies the emergence of new technologies and organisational forms are all features of late capitalism. Among this milieu a marked feature has been the emergence and recognition in society of new occupations. The claim upon a body of knowledge and practice and a societal domain in which to exercise expertise characterise these occupations. Status and recognition may ensue; in short they claim ‘professionalism’. ‘Professionalism’ is a word resonant with allusions to a particular time and place loosely located in the United States and England in the twentieth century although its roots are far earlier and its present branches are far-reaching. The text is an account of the Human Resource Management occupation’s search for status legitimacy and professionalism and illustrates how key agents wove a purposeful plan in pursuit of goals through changing socio-economic and political contexts. The text also discusses the changed meanings of and opportunities for professionalism for individual agents as members of a social grouping that is the occupation. This text is an analysis of the recent development of the Human Resource occupation against the backdrop of changing meanings and models of professions and professionalism and the traditional signifier of professionalism in the U. K. the Royal Charter. The original research from the UK outlines the efforts undertaken between 1968 and 2000 by the professional body the present day Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD the Institute) to attain a Royal Charter. This text addresses the following:• The role of key agents and institutions on shaping social structures and practice regimes• The changing construction and meanings of professionalism and professional occupations • The role of the collective professional body in shaping occupational practices in Human Resource Management and Human Resource Development and their effect upon working lives• The continuing significance of the Royal Charter as an ancient institution with deep societal effect | The Professionalisation of Human Resource Management Personnel Development and the Royal Charter

A Museum in Public Revisioning Canada’s Royal Ontario Museum

A Museum in Public Revisioning Canada’s Royal Ontario Museum

Not satisfied with the assertion that museums have taken great strides in becoming representative relevant and open in their preoccupations A Museum in Public contends that the supposedly public nature of their institutional role continues to be a rhetorical one. This book critically examines museums as institutions of the public sphere questioning what assumptions are made about the publicness of their operations. Using as a case study the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) Canada’s largest museum the book interrogates the public nature and political dynamics of the ROM as it completed a multi-million dollar architectural project and adopted a new vision of the museum. Providing an engaged cultural analysis of how publicness is reflected in the attitudes and behaviours of management staff and visitors Ashley claims that museums often function as a boundary zone between the needs and concerns of the public and ideas of publicness that serve corporate and managerial interests and practices. Asking the reader to seriously consider whether the ideals of contact zone and engagement are practically possible within an administrative setting the book offers insights into how museums might achieve political publicness through transparent open and democratic communicative action. A Museum in Public raises questions at the intersection of disciplines and as a result will appeal to academics researchers and postgraduates in a number of fields including: museum studies heritage studies cultural studies cultural policy public policy political science sociology geography architecture art history public history tourism studies and cultural management. | A Museum in Public Revisioning Canada’s Royal Ontario Museum

The Guiana Travels of Robert Schomburgk / 1835–1844 / Volume I / Explorations on behalf of the Royal Geographical Society 1835–183

The Guiana Travels of Robert Schomburgk / 1835–1844 / Volume I / Explorations on behalf of the Royal Geographical Society 1835–183

This is the first of a pair of volumes publishing the full reports of Schomburgk's travels in Guiana between 1835 and 1844 previously available only in greatly abridged and heavily edited versions. Robert Schomburgk left his native Germany for North America in 1828 aged twenty-four. A year later he was in the Caribbean where after various business failures he devoted himself to the investigation of natural history especially botany. Although he had no previous contact with the Royal Geographical Society in London the work he submitted to it was of such a quality that he was able to persuade the Society to sponsor explorations in the north-east of South America an area for which no accurate maps and little reliable information existed. From Schomburgk's arrival in British Guiana in 1835 up to 1839 he explored much of the interior of the colony and completed the arduous overland journey to the Orinoco to connect his survey with that of Alexander von Humboldt. During these expeditions he witnessed maltreatment of Amerindians at the hand of Brazilians and having ascertained that the boundary between Brazil and British Guiana was undefined he proposed it should be fixed so that those within the British colony would be protected from further harassment. The British Government decided to go ahead with this exercise and Schomburgk was appointed boundary commissioner with the task of surveying the boundaries of the colony. He did this between 1841 and 1843 returning to London in 1844 to be rewarded with a knighthood for his services. During much of his subsequent career until his death in 1865 he acted as a British consul first in Santo Domingo and then in Bangkok. | The Guiana Travels of Robert Schomburgk / 1835–1844 / Volume I / Explorations on behalf of the Royal Geographical Society 1835–183

Traditionally marginalized in a literature dominated by the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Air Force the RNAS and its innovative practitioners nevertheless shaped the fundamentals of air power and contributed significantly to the Allied victory in the First World War. The Development of British Naval Aviation utilizes archival documents and newly published research to resurrect the legacy of the RNAS and demonstrate its central role in Britain’s war effort. | The Development of British Naval Aviation 1914–1918

Volume 7 Tome III: Kierkegaard and His Danish Contemporaries - Literature Drama and Aesthetics

Volume 7 Tome III: Kierkegaard and His Danish Contemporaries - Literature Drama and Aesthetics

The period of Kierkegaard's life corresponds to Denmark's Golden Age which is conventionally used to refer to the period covering roughly the first half of the nineteenth century when Denmark's most important writers philosophers theologians poets actors and artists flourished. Kierkegaard was often in dialogue with his fellow Danes on key issues of the day. His authorship would be unthinkable without reference to the Danish State Church the Royal Theater the University of Copenhagen or the various Danish newspapers and journals such as The Corsair F¦drelandet and Kj¸benhavns flyvende Post which played an undeniable role in shaping his development. The present volume features articles that employ source-work research in order to explore the individual Danish sources of Kierkegaard's thought. The volume is divided into three tomes in order to cover the different fields of influence. Tome III is dedicated to the diverse Danish sources that fall under the rubrics Literature Drama and Aesthetics. The Golden Age is known as the period when Danish prose first established itself in genres such as the novel; moreover it was also an age when some of Denmark's most celebrated national poets flourished. Accordingly this tome contains articles on Kierkegaard's use of the great Danish poets and prose writers whose works are frequently quoted and alluded to throughout his writings. Kierkegaard regularly attended dramatic performances at Copenhagen's Royal Theater which was one of Europe's leading playhouses at the time. In this tome his appreciation for the art of Denmark's best-known actors and actresses is traced. Finally this tome features articles on the leading literary critics and aesthetic theorists of the Golden Age who served as foils for Kierkegaard's own ideas. | Volume 7 Tome III: Kierkegaard and His Danish Contemporaries - Literature Drama and Aesthetics

Changing Perspectives on England and the Continent in the Early Middle Ages

Changing Perspectives on England and the Continent in the Early Middle Ages

This volume brings together a set of articles by Professor Anton Scharer dealing with the themes of conversion court culture and royal representation in Anglo-Saxon England and Carolingian Europe. It includes two previously unpublished papers and another four specially translated into English for this publication. Three papers focus on different aspects of conversion: the spread of Christianity in Anglo-Saxon England by means of social relations the role of language in this process and the monastic and social background of the insular mission to the Continent. With conversion came the import of Latin written culture including charters and one study focuses on royal styles in Anglo-Saxon charters. A second paper on early mediaeval royal diplomas and what they at times reveal about very personal reactions and sentiments leads to the theme of court culture. This is further explored in a batch of papers centred on Alfred the Great and covering the subjects of historiography of inauguration rites or ordines and of hitherto neglected personal contacts as a clue to the transmission of experiences ideas and texts. Closely linked are studies on the role of Charlemagne's daughters at their fathe's court and on objects of princely and royal representation. Throughout particular attention is given to the examination of mutual Anglo-Saxon and Carolingian influences and to viewing the matters under discussion from an 'Anglo-Saxon' as well as a 'Continental' perspective. | Changing Perspectives on England and the Continent in the Early Middle Ages

Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire The Poetics of Imperial Space

Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire The Poetics of Imperial Space

In this pioneering study Dr. Fernandez explores how the rise of institutional geography in Victorian England impacted imperial fiction’s emergence as a genre characterized by a preoccupation with space and place. This volume argues that the alliance between institutional geography and the British empire which commenced with the founding of the Royal Geographical Society in 1830 shaped the spatial imagination of Victorians with profound consequences for the novel of empire. Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire examines Presidential Addresses and reports of the Royal Geographical Society and demonstrates how geographical studies by explorers cartographers ethnologists medical topographers administrators and missionaries published by the RGS local geographical societies or the colonial state acquired relevance for Victorian fiction’s response to the British Empire. Through a series of illuminating readings of literary works by R. L. Stevenson Olive Schreiner Flora Annie Steel Winwood Reade Joseph Conrad and Rudyard Kipling the study demonstrates how nineteenth-century fiction published between 1870 and 1901 reflected and interrogated geographical discourses of the time. The study makes the case for the significance of physical and human geography for literary studies and the unique historical and aesthetic insights gained through this approach. | Geography and the Literary Imagination in Victorian Fictions of Empire The Poetics of Imperial Space
