Material Matters Developing Business for a Circular Economy

Our planet is a closed system with limited material resources yet our current economic model is designed in a one-way direction from resource extraction to disposal leading to resource depletion. This book proposes a new economic model offering an alternative to this linear ‘take-make-waste’ economy. Material Matters shows a way of creating a circular economy by using the unlimited resources we have: renewable energy data and intelligence. It describes a system based on circular business models centred on selling performance rather than ownership designing products and buildings as resource banks and equipping products with a ‘material passport’ to ensure their usability for future generations. Businesses thereby become custodians of materials rather than consumers of materials and sellers of products. The book evokes the vision of a radically new economic model based on a compelling narrative supported with cases that have been developed in conjunction with major companies for example convincing Philips to sell light instead of lamps saving energy and materials by creating a whole new business model a case which has become iconic for the circular economy. Material Matters is not a somber analysis of the state of the planet but a concrete and comprehensive agenda for change offering perspectives for taking action for business and individual consumers alike. | Material Matters Developing Business for a Circular Economy

Women and Dramatic Production 1550 - 1700

There is a traditional view that women were absent from the field of dramatic production in the early modern period because of their exclusion from professional theatre. Women and Dramatic Production 1550-1700 challenges this view and breaks new ground in arguing that far from writing in closeted retreat a select number of women took an active part in directing and controlling dramatic self-representations. Examining texts from the mid-sixteenth century through to the end of the seventeenth the chapters trace the development of a women-centred aesthetic in a variety of dramatic forms. Plays by noblewomen such as Mary Sidney Elizabeth Cary Mary Wroth Rachel Fane and the women of the Cavendish family form an alternative dramatic tradition centred on the household. The powerful directorial and performative roles played by queens in royal progresses and masques are explored as examples of women's dramatic production in the royal court. The book also highlights women's performances in alternative venues such as the courtroom and the pulpit arguing that the practices of martyrs like Margaret Clitherow or visionaries like Anna Trapnel call into question traditional definitions of theatre. The challenges faced by women who were admitted to the professional theatre companies after 1660 are explored in two chapters which deal with the plays of Katherine Philips Elizabeth Polwhele Aphra Behn and Mary Pix among others. By considering the theatrical dimensions of a wide range of early modern women's writing this book reveals the breathtaking panorama of women's dramatic production and will be essential reading for students of women's writing and renaissance drama. | Women and Dramatic Production 1550 - 1700
