The North Atlantic Frontier of Medieval Europe Vikings and Celts

The North Atlantic Frontier of Medieval Europe Vikings and Celts

Discussion of medieval European expansion tends to focus on expansion eastward and the crusades. The selection of studies reprinted here however focuses on the other end of Eurasia where dwelled the warlike Celts and beyond whom lay the north seas and the awesome Atlantic Ocean formidable obstacles to expansion westward. This volume looks first at the legacy of the Viking expansion which had briefly created a network stretching across the sea from Britain and Ireland to North America and had demonstrated that the Atlantic could be crossed and land reached. The next sections deal with the English expansion in the western and northern British Isles. In the 12th century the Normans began the process of subjugating the Celts thus inaugurating for the English an experience which was to prove crucial when colonizing the Americas in the 17th century. Medieval Ireland in particular served as a laboratory for the development of imperial institutions attitudes and ideologies that shaped the creation of the British Empire and served as a staging area for further expansion westward. | The North Atlantic Frontier of Medieval Europe Vikings and Celts

Wooden Church Architecture of the Russian North Regional Schools and Traditions (14th - 19th centuries)

Wooden Church Architecture of the Russian North Regional Schools and Traditions (14th - 19th centuries)

The book presents a broad panoramic overview of church architecture in the Russian North between the fourteenth and nineteenth centuries. While it is inevitably overshadowed by the imperial splendour of the country’s capital cities this unique phenomenon is regarded as the most distinctive national expression of traditional Russian artistic culture and at the same time as a significant part of humanity’s worldwide architectural heritage. The chief intention of the book is to present the regionally specific features of the wooden churches of the Russian North which vary from area to area for local natural or historical reasons. This approach touches upon the very important questions of the typology and classification of the multiplicity of architectural forms. The regional view entails giving clear definitions of the ambiguous terms architectural school and tradition explaining the origins and shaping impulses for the different regional clusters of objects. Structurally the book presents a history of the development of wooden church architecture in the Russian North and then follows the key points of the mediaeval Russian expansion along the waterways from Novgorod into the North – he Svir’ River Lake Onego the town of Kargopol’ and the River Onega the White Sea the Rivers Dvina Pinega and Mezen’ – those areas that still retain the most splendid pieces of Russian regional wooden church architecture. The study is based on field research and provides an up-to-date multi-faceted view of Russian wooden architecture. | Wooden Church Architecture of the Russian North Regional Schools and Traditions (14th - 19th centuries)

Urban Redevelopment A North American Reader

Urban Redevelopment A North American Reader

Urban redevelopment plays a major part in the growth strategy of the modern city and the goal of this book is to examine the various aspects of redevelopment its principles and practices in the North American context. Urban Redevelopment: A North American Reader seeks to shed light on the practice by looking at both its failures and successes ideas that seemed to work in specific circumstances but not in others. The book aims to provide guidance to academics practitioners and professionals on how when where and why specific approaches worked and when they didn’t. While one has to deal with each case specifically it is the interactions that are key. The contributors offer insight into how urban design affects behavior how finance drives architectural choices how social equity interacts with economic development how demographical diversity drives cities’ growth how politics determine land use decisions how management deals with market choices and how there are multiple influences and impacts of every decision. The book moves from the history of urban redevelopment The City Beautiful movement grand concourses and plazas through urban renewal superblocks and downtown pedestrian malls to today’s place-making: transit-oriented design street quieting new urbanism publicly accessible softer waterfront design funky small urban spaces and public-private megaprojects. This history also moves from grand masters such as Baron Haussmann and Robert Moses through community participation to stakeholder involvement to creative local leadership. The increased importance of sustainability high-energy performance resilience and both pre- and post-catastrophe planning are also discussed in detail. Cities are acts of man not nature; every street and building represents decisions made by people. Many of today’s best recognized urban theorists look for great forces; economic trends technological shifts political movements and try to analyze how they impact cities. One does not have to be a subscriber to the great man theory of history to see that in urban redevelopment successful project champions use or sometimes overcome overall trends using the tools and resources available to rebuild their community. This book is about how these projects are brought together each somewhat differently by the people who make them happen. | Urban Redevelopment A North American Reader

Externalizing Migration Management Europe North America and the spread of 'remote control' practices

Externalizing Migration Management Europe North America and the spread of 'remote control' practices

The extension of border controls beyond a country’s territory to regulate the flows of migrants before they arrive has become a popular and highly controversial policy practice. Today remote control policies are more visible complex and widespread than ever before raising various ethical political and legal issues for the governments promoting them. The book examines the externalization of migration control from an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective focusing on ‘remote control’ initiatives in Europe and North America with contributions from the fields of politics sociology law geography anthropology and history. This book uses empirically rich analyses and compelling theoretical insights to trace the evolution of ‘remote control’ initiatives and assesses their impact and policy implications. It also explores competing theoretical models that might explain their emergence and diffusion. Individual chapters tackle some of the most puzzling questions underlying remote control policies such as the reasons why governments adopt these policies and what might be their impact on migrants and other actors involved. | Externalizing Migration Management Europe North America and the spread of 'remote control' practices

Ritual and Music of North China Volume 2: Shaanbei

Ritual and Music of North China Volume 2: Shaanbei

This second volume of Stephen Jones' work on ritual and musical life in north China again with accompanying downloadable resources gives an impression of music-making in daily life in the poor mountainous region of Shaanbei northwest China. It conveys some of the diverse musical activities there around 2000 from the barrage of pop music blaring from speakers in the bustling county-towns to the life-cycle and calendrical ceremonies of poor mountain villages. Based on the practice of grass-roots music-making in daily life not merely on official images the main theme is the painful maintenance of ritual and its music under Maoism its revival with the market reforms of the 1980s and its modification under the assaults of TV pop music and migration since the 1990s. The text is in four parts. Part One gives background to the area and music-making in society. Parts Two and Three discuss the lives of bards and shawm bands respectively describing modifications in their ceremonial activities through the twentieth century. Part Four acclimatizes us to the modern world with glimpses of various types of musical life in Yulin city the regional capital illustrating the contrast with the surrounding countryside. The 44-minute downloadable resources with its informative commentary is intended both to illuminate the text and to stand on its own. It shows bards performing at a temple fair and to bless a family in distress and shawm bands performing at a wedding at funerals and a shop opening - including their pop repertory with the 'big band'. Also featuring as part of these events are opera troupes geomancers and performing beggars; by contrast the film shows a glimpse of the official image of Shaanbei culture as presented by a state ensemble in the regional capital. The publication will appeal to ethnomusicologists anthropologists and all those interested in modern Chinese history and society. | Ritual and Music of North China Volume 2: Shaanbei

Beyond the Networked City Infrastructure reconfigurations and urban change in the North and South

Beyond the Networked City Infrastructure reconfigurations and urban change in the North and South

Cities around the world are undergoing profound changes. In this global era we live in a world of rising knowledge economies digital technologies and awareness of environmental issues. The so-called modern infrastructural ideal of spatially and socially ubiquitous centrally-governed infrastructures providing exclusive homogeneous services over extensive areas has been the standard of reference for the provision of basic essential services such as water and energy supply. This book argues that after decades of undisputed domination this ideal is being increasingly questioned and that the network ideology that supports it may be waning. In order to begin exploring the highly diverse fluid and unstable landscapes emerging beyond the networked city this book identifies dynamics through which a ‘break’ with previous configurations has been operated and new brittle zones of socio-technical controversy through which urban infrastructure (and its wider meaning) are being negotiated and fought over. It uncovers across a diverse set of urban contexts new ways in which processes of urbanization and infrastructure production are being combined with crucial sociopolitical implications: through shifting political economies of infrastructure which rework resource distribution and value creation; through new infrastructural spaces and territorialities which rebundle socio-technical systems for particular interests and claims; and through changing offsets between individual and collective appropriation experience and mobilization of infrastructure. With contributions from leading authorities in the field and drawing on theoretical advances and original empirical material this book is a major contribution to an ongoing infrastructural turn in urban studies and will be of interest to all those concerned by the diverse forms and contested outcomes of contemporary urban change across North and South. | Beyond the Networked City Infrastructure reconfigurations and urban change in the North and South

Estates Enterprise and Investment at the Dawn of the Industrial Revolution Estate Management and Accounting in the North-East of England

Estates Enterprise and Investment at the Dawn of the Industrial Revolution Estate Management and Accounting in the North-East of England

At the beginning of the eighteenth century the landed estate represented the largest and most clearly defined type of business organisation in existence in pre-industrial England. Given the need for capital wayleave rights and a ready supply of coal iron and other raw materials it is unsurprising that most historians tend to place Britain's formative industrial development on such estates where all these elements were available. Yet despite this consensus relatively little attention has been paid to the management and accountancy practices of these estates which have the potential to reveal much about the development of the industrial revolution. In this study the management practice on estates in the north-east of England (c. 1700-1780) is examined through the lens of the accounts and supporting documentation. Accounts encompassed every aspect of estate operations from the housekeeper's groceries to the lead and coal mines and thus provide direct evidence of the underlying management systems over a diverse range of activities. The information flows on estates serve as an excellent medium for testing hypotheses concerning the management of estates and the attitudes of their owners and stewards. Focusing on the surviving accounts of three leading gentry families Bowes Ridley and Cotesworth who came from contrasting social backgrounds two main issues are addressed. The first concerns the productivity of estates. Were estates managed efficiently as productive investments and more specifically to what extent can the landowners and their stewards legitimately be described as capitalists? The second related question asks in what ways did accounting aid managerial activity at this early stage of industrial development? These are the central questions this book addresses through examination of the nature and function of accounts within the organisation. By looking in detail at records from this crucial region during the period of transition to an industrial | Estates Enterprise and Investment at the Dawn of the Industrial Revolution Estate Management and Accounting in the North-East of England

Coordinates are integral building tools for GIS cartography surveying and are vital to the many applications we use today such as smart phones car navigation systems and driverless cars. Basic GIS Coordinates Third Edition grants readers with a solid understanding of coordinates and coordinate systems and how they operate as well as valuable insight into what causes them to malfunction. This practical and comprehensive guide lays out the foundation of a coordinate system and the implications behind building it as it elaborates on heights two coordinate systems and the rectangular system. The previous editions described horizontal and vertical datums such as the North American Datum 1983 (NAD 83) and the North American Vertical Datum 1988 (NAVD 88). Both will be replaced in 2022 or thereabouts. The National Geodetic Survey (NGS) plans to replace NAD83 with a new semi-dynamic terrestrial reference frame for North America and a new vertical datum will replace NAVD88. The foundation of the new vertical datum will be a temporally tracked gravimetric geoid. The interim period is intended to smooth the transition to the new paradigm and this new edition explores the changes and provides assistance in understanding them.

Economic Development in Rural Areas Functional and Multifunctional Approaches

Analysing the ongoing changes and dynamics in rural development from a functional perspective through a series of case studies from the global north and south this volume deepens our understanding of the importance of new functional and multifunctional approaches in policy practice and theory. In rural areas of industrialized societies food production as a basis for growth and employment has been declining for many decades. In the Global South on the other hand food production is still often the most important factor for socio-economic development. However rural areas both in the industrialized north and in the global south are facing new challenges which lead to significant changes and threats to their development. New forms of food production but also new functional (e. g. housing or business parks) and often multifunctional approaches are being discussed and practiced yet it remains unclear the extent to which these result in better or more sustainable development of rural areas. | Economic Development in Rural Areas Functional and Multifunctional Approaches

Look East to Act East Policy Implications for India's Northeast

This volume captures the success of India’s Look East Policy (LEP) in promoting economic engagement with neighbouring countries in Asia and simultaneously its limitations in propelling growth in the bordering North Eastern Region — India’s bridge head to South East Asia. It analyses the instrumental role of LEP in bringing a tectonic shift in India’s foreign trade by redirecting the focus from the West to the East thus leading to a fundamental change in the nature of India’s economic interdependence. Besides discussing foreign trade it expounds as to how LEP made India play an important role in the emerging Asian security architecture and liberated Indian foreign policy from being centred on South Asia. The essays also enumerate the reasons for LEP’s failure in the North Eastern Region and chart out actionable programmes for course correction that might be factored into its latest edition — the Act East Policy. This book will interest scholars and researchers of international relations international trade and economics politics and particularly those concerned with Northeast India. | Look East to Act East Policy Implications for India's Northeast
