The First World Empire Portugal War and Military Revolution

The First World Empire Portugal War and Military Revolution

This book offers a comprehensive overview of the early modern military history of Portugal and its possessions in Africa the Americas and Asia from the perspective of the military revolution historiographical debate. The existence of a military revolution in the early modern period has been much debated in international historiography and this volume fills a significant gap in its relation to the history of Portugal and its overseas empire. It examines different forms of military change in specifically Portuguese case studies but also adopts a global perspective through the analysis of different contexts and episodes in Africa the Americas and Asia. Contributors explore whether there is evidence of what could be defined as aspects of a military revolution or whether other explanatory models are needed to account for different forms of military change. In this way it offers the reader a variety of perspectives that contribute to the debate over the applicability of the military revolution concept to Portugal and its empire during the early modern period. Broken down into four thematic parts and broad in both chronological and geographical scope the book deepens our understanding of the art of warfare in Portugal and its empire and demonstrates how the military revolution debate can be used to examine military change in a global perspective. This is an essential text for scholars and students of military history military architecture global history Asian history and the history of Iberian empires.

Chemistry Pharmacy and Revolution in France 1777-1809

Chemistry Pharmacy and Revolution in France 1777-1809

This book explores the history of pharmacy in France and its relationship to the discipline of chemistry as it emerged at the beginning of the nineteenth century. It argues that an appreciation of the history of pharmacy is essential to a full understanding of the constitution of modern science in particular the discipline of chemistry. As such it provides a novel interpretation of the chemical revolution (c. 1770-1789) that will no doubt generate much debate on the place of the chemical arts in this story a question that has hitherto lacked sufficient scholarly reflection. Furthermore the book situates this analysis within the broader context of the French Revolution arguing that an intimate and direct link can be drawn between the political upheavals and our vision of the chemical revolution. The story of the chemical revolution has usually been told by focusing on the small group of French chemists who championed Lavoisier's oxygen theory or else his opponents. Such a perspective emphasises competing theories and interpretations of critical experiments but neglects the challenging issue of who could be understood as practising chemistry in the eighteenth century. In contrast this study traces the tradition of pharmacy as a professional pursuit that relied on chemical techniques to prepare medicines and shows how one of the central elements of the chemical revolution was the more or less conscious disassociation of the new chemistry from this ancient chemical art. | Chemistry Pharmacy and Revolution in France 1777-1809

Women And Revolution In Iran

Women And Revolution In Iran

Iranian women acquired greater legal social and economic opportunities during the past three decades than in any other period of history yet they participated in large numbers in the 1979 revolution to overthrow Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Ironically they may have lost. more than any other group from the changes introduced and stand to lose even more from changes contemplated by leaders of the current regime. The role of women in the revolution the reasons for their participation and their subsequent fate are documented in this volume. The authors examine the status of women in pre-revolutionary society the ways in which their lives were affected by Islamic principles and the changes that occurred throughout the twentieth century as increasing numbers of women entered the labor force and public life. They then turn to recent political events describing the participation of working-class rural and educated women and activists from both the right and left. Finally they consider the implications of recent government politics aimed at limiting women's activities outside the home and encouraging a return to more traditional roles. | Women And Revolution In Iran

The Pension Fund Revolution

The Pension Fund Revolution

In The Pension Fund Revolution originally published nearly two decades ago under the title The Unseen Revolution Drucker reports that institutional investors especially pension funds have become the controlling owners of America's large companies the country's only capitalists. He maintains that the shift began in 1952 with the establishment of the first modern pension fund by General Motors. By 1960 it had become so obvious that a group of young men decided to found a stock-exchange firm catering exclusively to these new investors. Ten years later this firm (Donaldson Lufkin & Jenrette) became the most successful and one of the biggest Wall Street firms. Drucker's argument that through pension funds ownership of the means of production had become socialized without becoming nationalized was unacceptable to the conventional wisdom of the country in the 1970s. Even less acceptable was the second theme of the book: the aging of America. Among the predictions made by Drucker in The Pension Fund Revolution are: that a major health care issue would be longevity; that pensions and social security would be central to American economy and society; that the retirement age would have to be extended; and that altogether American politics would increasingly be dominated by middle-class issues and the values of elderly people. While readers of the original edition found these conclusions hard to accept Drucker's work has proven to be prescient. In the new epilogue Drucker discusses how the increasing dominance of pension funds represents one of the most startling power shifts in economic history and he examines their present-day Impact. The Pension Fund Revolution is now considered a classic text regarding the effects of pension fund ownership on the governance of the American corporation and on the structure of the American economy altogether. The reissuing of this book is more timely now than ever. It provides a wealth of information for sociologists economists and political theorists.

An Analysis of Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France

An Analysis of Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France

Edmund Burke’s 1791 Reflections on the Revolution in France is a strong example of how the thinking skills of analysis and reasoning can support even the most rhetorical of arguments. Often cited as the foundational work of modern conservative political thought Burke’s Reflections is a sustained argument against the French Revolution. Though Burke is in many ways not interested in rational close analysis of the arguments in favour of the revolution he points out a crucial flaw in revolutionary thought upon which he builds his argument. For Burke that flaw was the sheer threat that revolution poses to life property and society. Sceptical about the utopian urge to utterly reconstruct society in line with rational principles Burke argued strongly for conservative progress: a continual slow refinement of government and political theory which could move forward without completely overturning the old structures of state and society. Old state institutions he reasoned might not be perfect but they work well enough to keep things ticking along. Any change made to improve them therefore should be slow not revolutionary. While Burke’s arguments are deliberately not reasoned in the ‘rational’ style of those who supported the revolution they show persuasive reasoning at its very best. | An Analysis of Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France

The Academic Revolution

The Academic Revolution

The Academic Revolution describes the rise to power of professional scholars and scientists first in America's leading universities and now in the larger society as well. Without attempting a full-scale history of American higher education it outlines a theory about its development and present status. It is illustrated with firsthand observations of a wide variety of colleges and universities the country over-colleges for the rich and colleges for the upwardly mobile; colleges for vocationally oriented men and colleges for intellectually and socially oriented women; colleges for Catholics and colleges for Protestants; colleges for blacks and colleges for rebellious whites. The authors also look at some of the revolution's consequences. They see it as intensifying conflict between young and old and provoking young people raised in permissive middle-class homes to attacks on the legitimacy of adult authority. In the process the revolution subtly transformed the kinds of work to which talented young people aspire contributing to the decline of entrepreneurship and the rise of professionalism. They conclude that mass higher education for all its advantages has had no measurable effect on the rate of social mobility or the degree of equality in American society. Jencks and Riesman are not nostalgic; their description of the nineteenth-century liberal arts colleges is corrosively critical. They maintain that American students know more than ever before that their teachers are more competent and stimulating than in earlier times and that the American system of higher education has brought the American people to an unprecedented level of academic competence. But while they regard the academic revolution as having been an historically necessary and progressive step they argue that like all revolutions it can devour its children. For Jencks and Riesman academic professionalism is an advance over amateur gentility but they warn of its dangers and limitations: the elitism and arrogance implicit in meritocracy the myopia that derives from a strictly academic view of human experience and understanding the complacency that comes from making technical competence an end rather than a means.
