Rethinking Labour-Management Relations The Case for Arbitration

Rethinking Labour-Management Relations The Case for Arbitration

First published in 1991 Rethinking Labour-Management Relations explores how the contemporary system of industrial relations developed and outlines proposals for a better alternative. The book examines the positives and negatives of three systems of industrial relations: a freely operating market for labour where workers bargain individually with employers; a strike-based system of collective bargaining; and a compulsory arbitration system. It discusses how the strike replaced individual bargaining highlighting the deficiencies in these respective systems and presenting arbitration as the more efficient and effective way of settling disputes. In doing so the book emphasises the role of the parties involved in finding solutions and considers how government intervention could be kept to a minimum. Exploring a wealth of literature relating to compulsory arbitration systems around the world and formulating a set of criteria for establishing the best possible form of arbitration Rethinking Labour-Management Relations will appeal to those with an interest in the history of trade union theory public policy and labour law. | Rethinking Labour-Management Relations The Case for Arbitration

Technology Industrial Conflict and the Development of Technical Education in 19th-Century England

Technology Industrial Conflict and the Development of Technical Education in 19th-Century England

This title was first published in 2001. Nineteenth-century employers played a crucial role in the training and education of young workers in England. This multi-disciplinary study traces the connection between problems of technical education development and the increasingly antagonistic relations with skilled workers culminating in the Great Strike and Lockout of 1897. Cronin demonstrates that employers dominated by economic short-termism extended their hegemony beyond the boundaries of the factory gates. Their reluctance to endorse and sponsor technical education radically influenced the perception of technical education held by government and local authorities. | Technology Industrial Conflict and the Development of Technical Education in 19th-Century England

Routledge Handbook of Cultural Landscape Practice

Routledge Handbook of Cultural Landscape Practice

Cultural landscapes which in the field of heritage studies and practice relates to caring for and safeguarding heritage landscapes is a concept embedded in contemporary conservation. Heritage conservation has shifted from an historical focus on buildings city centres and archaeological sites to encompass progressively more diverse forms of heritage and increasingly larger geographic areas embracing both rural and urban landscapes. While the origin of the idea of cultural landscapes can be traced to the late-19th century Euro-American scholarship it came to global attention after 1992 following its adoption as a category of ‘site’ by the UNESCO World Heritage Committee. Today cultural landscape practice has become increasingly complex given the expansion of the values and meanings of heritage the influence of environmental challenges such as human induced climate change technological advancements and the need to better understand and interpret human connections to place and landscapes. The aim of this handbook is to strike a balance between theory and practice which we see as inseparable while also seeking to achieve a geographical spread disciplinary diversity and perspectives and a mix of authors from academic practitioner management and community backgrounds. | Routledge Handbook of Cultural Landscape Practice

South Wales Miners: Glowyr de Cymru A History of the South Wales Miners' Federation (1914-1926)

South Wales Miners: Glowyr de Cymru A History of the South Wales Miners' Federation (1914-1926)

First published in 1975 South Wales Miners starts with the War of Empires when nearly 50 000 Welsh miners almost one-fifth of the total manpower of their coalfield responded to the call and voluntarily enlisted in the British armed forces. The author uncovers how the coalowners in the meantime took advantage of the war emergency to deny the remaining miners a fair recompense for their toil and of the bitter strife that followed. The book tells the story of what led up to the General Strike and here the author uses hitherto hidden sources of information. The picture is revealed of what was a virtual conspiracy between the Baldwin-Churchill Government and the mineowners not only to cut wages and lengthen hours but to cripple British trade unionism. When the miners held out through a seven-month lockout the efforts of these highly placed conspirators recoiled on their own heads and on the whole economy of British Empire. This book will be of interest to students of history labour studies economics and political science. | South Wales Miners: Glowyr de Cymru A History of the South Wales Miners' Federation (1914-1926)

Understanding Young Chinese Backpackers The Pursuit of Freedom and Its Risks

Understanding Young Chinese Backpackers The Pursuit of Freedom and Its Risks

An activity that originated in Western societies backpacking has gained increasing popularity among Chinese millennials. In a spirit of the ‘search for self’ young Chinese backpackers have sought to display their pursuit of freedom independence and responsibility within an increasingly individualised society through backpacking. This volume investigates contemporary young Chinese persons’ views on backpacking culture and backpackers. A group of Chinese backpackers are studied using interview and participant observation and focus groups are conducted to study young professionals’ and university students’ attitudes towards backpacking. The results indicate a profound cultural change along with a degree of division. On the one hand the backpackers often begin their journey due to a desire to pursue freedom and use the pursuit as a process of reflexive awareness; on the other hand the risks of pursuing a freewheeling lifestyle within an individualised society drive the majority of them to return home. The author concludes that this phenomenon is a kind of ‘staged individualism’ describing how Chinese millennials strike a balance between individual interests and wider social obligations. Students and scholars of sociology tourism and youth culture will be interested in this volume. | Understanding Young Chinese Backpackers The Pursuit of Freedom and Its Risks

The Individual Vs. The Public Interest Political Ideology And National Forest Policy

The Individual Vs. The Public Interest Political Ideology And National Forest Policy

Central to the controversy surrounding U. S. natural resources policy is the conflict between environmentalists and proponents of development. Examining the evolution of the philosophies underlying that conflict Dr. Alston traces the failure to achieve a unified resources policy to the seemingly incompatible ideological positions held by resource specialists interest groups policymakers econo mists and foresters. His analysis goes beyond his case study of na ional forest policy to focus on an ancient question basic to policy making in a democratic society: How can government provide a sociopolitical framework that accomodates both individual interests and the need for unity in a collective existence? Only within this broader framework he argues is it possible to determine the proper division between private and public resource management or the proper role of government in natural resources planning. Incorporating a critical evaluation of the development of classical and neoclassical economic theory this work makes clear the need to strike a balance between a strictly individualistic and an ecological point of view. Dr. Alston illustrates the ideological conflicts that complicate resources planning and explores the possibility of a new ideology capable of accomodating and inte grating differences to meet the complex needs of society. | The Individual Vs.

Greece in the 21st Century The Politics and Economics of a Crisis

Greece in the 21st Century The Politics and Economics of a Crisis

For most of the first part of the 21st century Greece has been seen as a critical battlefield for the survival of the powerful and the adjustment or extinction of the weak as if all the historical contradictions of the global financial crisis and the eurozone crisis were concentrated in that tiny part of the world with a population of just 11 million people and a GDP of less than 2% of that of the European Union as a whole. While the country has been overpowered by the disciplinarian and deeply authoritarian policy mix of ordoliberal/neoliberal rules as this book attempts to show there is hope. Defeat does not end the crisis and crisis means constant opportunity. In this state of affairs all types of agencies try to take advantage of the conditions and opportunities in order to advance towards positions of power and provide the best of solutions for the class interests they represent. Thus harsh conflict is inevitable and if history provides a yardstick it is that in periods of conflict and crisis the winner usually is the one who manages to strike the right political and social alliances at the right time. The editors have assembled in this volume a number of interdisciplinary chapters and arguments which despite their differences share the strategic aim of a critique of both neoliberalism/ordoliberalism and new authoritarianism. Chapters examine the eurozone crisis from a variety of angles with reference to Greece and Greek politics and society. With this collection of heterodox and scholarly essays the authors and editors aim to offer a progressive understanding of current historical circumstances. Constantine Dimoulas is an Assistant Professor in social administration and evaluation of social programmes at Panteion University Greece. Vassilis K. Fouskas is Professor of international politics and economics at the University of East London UK and the founding editor of the Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies (Taylor & Francis). | Greece in the 21st Century The Politics and Economics of a Crisis

Sex and Dehumanization

Sex and Dehumanization

Never before published in the United States David Holbrook's study offers the sort of common sense all too uncommon in this area of study. His essential premise is that sex has become converted from an instrument for the expression of happiness and affection into an end unto itself. In the search for sexual liberation all that has been accomplished is the mechanization of sexuality and the destruction of the full range of emotions that nourish the human search for social and biological meaning. Sex and Dehumanization is one of those rare books that will immediately strike the reader as part of the common wisdom that has somehow been lost in a search for the pleasure principle unhinged from other values and goals. During the past quarter century Holbrook argues not only has the concept of sex become increasingly separated from the rest of existence but sex casualties have increased disastrously. The spread of AIDS has brought an ominous and deadly manifestation of this thesis into the human equation yet at the same tune the response to this menace has been nothing short of manic denial. A similar picture emerges in less deadly forms. Whatever statistics one examines whether those of sexual activity among young children abortion or sexual disease one finds a grim antidote to any hopes of progress in the sphere of human dealings with the sexual. Holbrook locates many of the problems involved in this separation of sex and affection in the emergence of the idea that our lives are governed by impersonal forces beyond human control. Sex and Dehumanization is in the great tradition of social history and psychiatric analysis. Robert Nye writing in the Scotsman says that Holbrook's diagnosis of our unease should be attentively studied by all who really care about sex and love and the responsibility of freedom. Gabriel Pearson in the Guardian echoes this sentiment adding that never has such a secular ethic been so firmly and urgently and usefully stated. And John Rex sees the book as containing the germs of important and central moral discussion.
