Beyond Isadora Bay Area Dancing 1915-1965

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Beyond Isadora: Bay Area Dancing The Early Years, 1915 1965 documents the fascinating and little-known history of early 20th century dance in the San Francisco Bay Area. It is a history of performers, choreographers and teachers, pioneers of today`s dance community. It is also women`s history, since the prime movers were almost all women. This history, offered here as short biographical and chronological sketches, seeks to detail the regional development of ballet and of modern, ethnic and folk dance, from the era of Isadora Duncan, San Francisco s dance legend, who is regarded as the pioneer revolutionary and the mother of modern dance, to the mid 1960s. After Isadora, decades of dancers, dance groups and organizations carried on and refined a new American dance. A symposium with Bay Area dance leaders and a performance of `reconstructed works` was held in 2002 to provide groundwork information. Rare public and private archival collections supplied program data and illustrative… [detailed...]

Alice H. Amsden, Wan-Wen Chu
Beyond Late Development: Taiwan`s Upgrading Policies

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this book Alice Amsden and Wan-wen Chu cover new ground by analyzing the phenomenon of high-end catch-up. They study how leading firms from the most advanced latecomer countries like Taiwan have increased their market share in mature high-tech industries and services. The profits that true innovators in these industries once enjoyed have already declined, but profit rates are still above average. The latecomer firm that succeeds in capturing these rents earns `second-mover` advantage. Amsden and Chu examine the successful second movers in electronics and modern services. The critical factors, they show, are the government policies and large-scale firms that drive skills, speed, and scale. R&,D in Taiwan was usually undertaken in conjunction with government labs, which prepared the way for local production of the next hot, mature product. Speed in ramping up at the firm level depended on project execution capabilities and access to capital. Scale proved to be an absolute… [detailed...]

Beyond Lift Every Voice and Sing: The Culture of Uplift, Identity, and Politics in Black Musical Theater (Black Performance and Cultural Criticism)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Paula Marie Seniors’s Beyond Lift Every Voice and Sing is an engaging and well-researched book that explores the realities of African American life and history as refracted through the musical theater productions of one of the most prolific black song-writing teams of the early twentieth century. James Weldon Johnson, J. Rosamond Johnson, and Bob Cole combined conservative and progressive ideas in a complex and historically specific strategy for overcoming racism and its effects. In Shoo Fly Regiment (1906–1908) and The Red Moon (1908–1910), theater, uplift, and politics collided as the team tried to communicate a politics of uplift, racial pride, gender equality, and interethnic coalitions. The overarching question of this study is how roles and representations in black musical theater both reflected and challenged the dominant social order. While some scholars dismiss the team as conformists, Seniors’s contention is that they used the very tools of hegemony to make progressive… [detailed...]

Beyond Logos: New Definitions of Corporate Identity (Graphic Design)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Corporate identity, the design and marketing buzzphrase of the 80s and 90s, has undergone a revolution in the last five years. Now the talk is of branding. With the growth of globalisation and the increasing realisation among corporations large and small that this is their only way of distinguishing themselves, large sections of the design industry have adapted to offer new services and meet the new branding challenges. Arranged in thematic chapters with an introduction, this book identifies and deconstructs the kind of corporate move that turns a footwear store into a ?cathedral? and a cigarette brand into a smoker?s retreat. It tracks the rise of the brand and pinpoints the role played by design companies in creating the experience economy - a world in which corporations do not have identities but brands, visions, big ideas. Beyond Logos shows how, as we enter the 21st century, we are being taken beyond logos. Clare Dowdy is the former features editor… [detailed...]

MIDI is nowthe most prevalent representation of music, but what it represents is based on hardware control protocols for sound synthesis.

Beyond Mahathir: Malaysian Politics and Its Discontents

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Beyond Mahathir is a timely response to the planned retirement in October 2003 of Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir Mohamad of Malaysia, and poses vital questions about `Malaysian politics after Mahathir.` It examines Malaysia`s long-term social transformation, the global disruptions of July 1997 and September 11, 2001, key leaders` calculations of power, and the pitfalls of leadership transition that intersected to produce the political dramas of Mahathir`s final decade in power. Organizing arguments around the critical but unstable fortunes of a thirty-year nationalist-capitalist project, it brings to life Mahathir`s predicaments, contradictions in Anwar Ibrahim`s career, Reformasi`s creative dissent, and the cultural imperative behind the Alternative Front`s `rainbow coalition`. The result is an instructive guide to the momentous events that ultimately revolved around competing conceptions of what the future portends or should portend for Malaysia, and the bitterly contested… [detailed...]

In Beyond Memory: Soviet Nonconformist Photography and Photo-Related Works of Art, the general editor, Diane Neumaier, and twenty-three contributors offer a rigorous examination of the medium?s role in late Soviet unofficial art. Focusing on the period between the mid-1950s and the late 1980s, they explore artists? unusually inventive and resourceful uses of photographywithin a highly developed Soviet dissident culture. During this time, lack of high-quality photographic materials, complimented by tremendous creative impulses, prompted artists to explore experimental photo-processes such as camera and darkroom manipulations, photomontage, and hand-coloring. Photography also took on a provocative array of forms including photo installation, artist-made samizdat (self-published) books, photo-realist painting, and many other surprising applications… [detailed...]

Description: Beyond Microfoundations discusses the foundations for a post-Walrasian macroeconomics and, in doing so, carries the work of Robert Clower and Axel Leijonhufvud to the present. This book spells out both why a new approach to macro is needed, and what the essence of the approach will be. This post-Walrasian approach to macro is neither Keynesian nor Classical, both of which have Walrasian foundations, but it offers an approach to macro in which Walrasian economics is turned on its head. Specifically, it rejects the Walrasian ad hoc assumptions of the existence of a unique equilibrium and of simple dynamics. [detailed...]
