Labels Making Independent Music

The music industry is dominated today by three companies. Outside of it thousands of small independent record labels have developed despite the fact that digitalization made record sales barely profitable. How can those outsiders not only survive but thrive within mass music markets? What makes them meaningful and to whom? Dominik Bartmanski and Ian Woodward show how labels act as taste-makers and scene-markers that not only curate music but project cultural values which challenge the mainstream capitalist music industry. Focusing mostly on labels that entered independent electronic music after 2000 the authors reconstruct their aesthetics and ethics. The book draws on multiple interviews with labels such as Ostgut Ton in Berlin Argot in Chicago 100% Silk in Los Angeles Ninja Tune in London and Goma Gringa in Sao Paulo. Written by the authors of Vinyl this book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the contemporary recording industry independent music material culture anthropology sociology and cultural studies. | Labels Making Independent Music

Language Custom and Nation in the 1790s Locke Tooke Wordsworth Edgeworth

Language Custom and Nation in the 1790s shows for the first time how the radical 'Jacobin' poets and their ideas of a 'revolutionary' poetry were impelled - even 'invented' - by the seventeenth-century English philosopher John Locke. For too long the revolutionary Romanticism and poetic experiments of the 1790s have been understood as responses to the American and French revolutions or attributed to the intellectual influence of Rousseau. The author counters these assumptions by tracing threads of influence from Locke's ideas of 'arbitrary' language and tyranny through Tooke's attacks on terms such as 'majesty' and 'law' to the supposedly 'real language' of Wordsworthian Romanticism. She breaks new ground in establishing Maria Edgeworth's place in Locke's anti-authoritarian tradition contending that Edgeworth's work produced in the shadow of the United Irishmen uprising revives the politicisation of the idea of common language displaced in Wordsworth's neutralizing of Locke's radical impulse in the preface to Lyrical Ballads. The author's original and engaging book will appeal to scholars of 1790s radicalism eighteenth-century linguistic theory women's writing and the relations between Britain and Ireland. | Language Custom and Nation in the 1790s Locke Tooke Wordsworth Edgeworth

Transparent Design in Higher Education Teaching and Leadership A Guide to Implementing the Transparency Framework Institution-Wide to Improv

This book offers a comprehensive guide to the Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT) framework that has convincingly demonstrated that implementation increases retention and improved outcomes for all students. Its premise is simple: to make learning processes explicit and equitably accessible for all students. Transparent instruction involves faculty/student discussion about several important aspects of academic work before students undertake that work making explicit the purpose of the work the knowledge that will be gained and its utility in students’ lives beyond college; explaining the tasks involved the expected criteria and providing multiple examples of real-world work applications of the specific academic discipline. The simple change of making objective and methods explicit – that faculty recognize as consistent with their teaching goals – creates substantial benefits for students and demonstrably increases such predictors of college students’ success as academic confidence sense of belonging in college self-awareness of skill development and persistence. This guide presents a brief history of TILT summarizes both past and current research on its impact on learning and describes the three-part Transparency Framework (of purposes tasks and criteria). The three sections of the book in turn demonstrate why and how transparent instruction works suggesting strategies for instructors who wish to adopt it; describing how educational developers and teaching centers have adopted the Framework; and concluding with examples of how several institutions have used the Framework to connect the daily work of faculty with the learning goals that departments programs and institutions aim to demonstrate. | Transparent Design in Higher Education Teaching and Leadership A Guide to Implementing the Transparency Framework Institution-Wide to Improv

Doing Public Good? Private Actors Evaluation and Public Value

This book examines the contributions of non-public organizations such as foundations philanthropies charities non-governmental organizations private businesses and entrepreneurs to public goods and services. Too often the impact of the contributions of such private actors are overlooked. However they are playing an increasing role in meeting societal needs across the developing world. Doing Public Good? lays out key elements that need to be considered in evaluating the net results achieved by these private actors. It uses case studies and analysis to show how to answer such questions as: Is it working? How do they and the public know they are doing good? And how to improve? Such questions are particularly important since little is known about the net results of private avenues for delivering public value. The contributors conclude that doing good organizations need to be more transparent and accountable regarding their operations and achievements.

American Exceptionalism An Idea that Made a Nation and Remade the World

How does American exceptionalism shape American foreign policy? Conventional wisdom states that American exceptionalism comes in two variations – the exemplary version and the missionary version. Being exceptional experts in U. S. foreign policy argue means that you either withdraw from the world like an isolated but inspiring city upon a hill or that you are called upon to actively lead the rest of the world to a better future. In her book Hilde Eliassen Restad challenges this assumption arguing that U. S. history has displayed a remarkably constant foreign policy tradition which she labels unilateral internationalism. The United States Restad argues has not vacillated between an exemplary and a missionary identity. Instead the United States developed an exceptionalist identity that while idealizing the United States as an exemplary city upon a hill more often than not errs on the side of the missionary crusade in its foreign policy. Utilizing the latest historiography in the study of U. S. foreign relations the book updates political science scholarship and sheds new light on the role American exceptionalism has played – and continues to play – in shaping America’s role in the world. This work will be of great interest to students and scholars of US foreign policy security studies and American politics. | American Exceptionalism An Idea that Made a Nation and Remade the World
