The Politics Of Consumption In Eighteenth-century Ireland

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This first major book on consumption in eighteenth-century Ireland takes its lead from Brewer, McKendrick and Plumb`s The Birth of a Consumer Society in its investigation of food and drink, new urban housing, newspapers and linen. But as with many other areas of Irish culture and society, consumption cannot be separated from the problems of Anglo-Irish relations, and therefore an appreciation of these political overtones is vitally important. The book will address three very broad questions. First it will explore how the study of consumption can be applied to Irish society and culture, and more particularly its political scene. Second it will examine the significance of British attitudes towards Irish patterns of consumption in the context of eighteenth-century Anglo-Irish relations. Finally it will look at the way Ireland`s position in the British empire determined the relationship between politics and consumption. [detailed...]

John Ince
The Politics Of Lust

2005 y.
Publisher: Prometheus Books
Description: John Ince probes the nooks and crannies of the modern erotic mind and discovers that below our seeming enthusiasm for sex is a reservoir of fear. While we are drawn to sex, it also secretly disturbs us. Ours is a culture of sexual bravado, not sexual joy. Ince offers a sweeping re-evaluation of our sexual ethics. He finds powerful anxieties lurking in our attitudes to every type of erotic expression, from nudity to public sex, masturbation to homosexuality, monogamy to group sex, pornography to prostitution, teen sexuality to erotic art. This erotic malaise powerfully affects our lives. It stunts sexual passion, inhibits frank and honest talk about sex, and generates shame about sexual organs. It even influences our political orientation. Our sex-negativity is the product of a fascinating but toxic social system that this book is the first to identify. The challenging ideas set out in The Politics of Lust will give you a radical new perspective on both your sexuality and… [detailed...]

The Politics Of Regulation: Institutions and Regulatory Reforms for the Age of Governance (The Crc Series on Competition, Regulation and Development)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis book suggests that the scope and breadth of regulatory reforms since the mid-1980s and particularly during the 1990s, are so striking that they necessitate a reappraisal of current approaches to the study of the politics of regulation. The authors call for the adoption of different and fresh perspectives to examine this area. The contributors to this volume analyze how regulatory regimes that were once peculiar to the US and a few industries have, in recent years, come to definethe best practice of governance over the world capitalist economy and over numerous social and economic sectors. They go on to suggest various explanations for the expansion of regulatory institutions, addressing some of the most critical problems and offering new methodological techniques to enable further study. The contributions also provide distinct cross-national and cross-sectoral comparative approaches, and emphasize the changes in the economic and social context of regulation… [detailed...]

The Politics and Economics of Indonesia`s Natural Resources (Indonesia Update)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this informative and essential book, a team of scholars and policy experts from both Indonesia and the larger international community review political and economic developments in post-Soeharto era Indonesia. Together, they consider the kinds of structures that would foster social, economic, and environmental sustainability. The fall of Soeharto in 1998 provided the impetus for the transformation of Indonesia`s political system to one that is considerably more democratic and decentralized. But what has this meant for Indonesia`s natural resources? The stakes for the nation and the international community are considerable. In physical and biological resources, Indonesia is a wealthy country. It is a world leader in mineral exports, its rainforests account for more than 50 percent of the tropical forests in Southeast Asia and more than 10 percent of the world`s total, it has unique and extensive biodiversity resources, and its fisheries are some of the world`s most… [detailed...]

The Politics and Economics of Park Management

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Politics and Economics of Park Management examines national protected area systems, in both developed and developing countries, that have made a transformation from `fortress parks` to a sustainable use model. The contributors--park management, academics, and members of nongovenmental organizations--contend that successful institutional change in protected area systems involves not only the adoption of appropriate legal and regulatory regimes covering sustainable use, but also the development of an informal culture of sustainable resource use among all of a park`s stakeholders. While this latter requirement is often difficult to achieve, the contributors show how these informal attitudes may evolve over time, both within the management structure of apark agency and the community of resource users. The case studies cited represent examples of successful institutional change, demonstrating both financial and conservation benefits to protected area agencies, that should serve as… [detailed...]

The Politics and Plays of Bernard Shaw

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionDo politics and the playhouse go together? For Bernard Shaw they most certainly did. As a playwright with a message he saw the theatre as the ideal medium for conveying his view of life, which was essentially socialistic. The theatre was to Shaw a latter-day temple of the arts within a community. But Shaw was, of course, multi-voiced, not only through the characters he created but also in his own persona as public speaker, essayist, tract writer and author of works on political economy. Much of the thinking that is expressed in his non-dramatic works is contained also in his plays. This work offers a readily accessible means of looking at the nature and the progression of Shaw?s thinking. All the plays included in the majorcanon are reviewed and, except for brief plays and playlets (which are grouped), they are presented in sequential order. [detailed...]

The Politics of Cultural Capital: China`s Quest for a Nobel Prize in Literature

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the 1980s China`s politicians, writers, and academics began to raise an increasingly urgent question: why had a Chinese writer never won a Nobel prize for literature? Promoted to the level of official policy issue and national complex, Nobel anxiety generated articles, conferences, and official delegations to Sweden. Exiled writer Gao Xingjian`s win in 2000 failed to satisfactorily end the matter, and the controversy surrounding the Nobel committee`s choice has continued to simmer. Julia Lovell`s comprehensive study of China`s obsession spans the twentieth century and taps directly into the key themes of modern Chinese culture: national identity, international status, and the relationship between intellectuals and politics. Making use of extensive original research, including interviews with leading contemporary Chinese authors and critics, Lovell provides a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of an issue that cuts to the heart of modern and contemporary Chinese thought and… [detailed...]
