Book Synopsis Spanish Society, 1348-1700 by : Teofilo F. Ruiz
Download or read book Spanish Society, 1348-1700 written by Teofilo F. Ruiz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the Black Death in 1348 and extending through to the demise of Habsburg rule in 1700, this second edition of Spanish Society, 1348–1700 has been expanded to provide a wide and compelling exploration of Spain’s transition from the Middle Ages to modernity. Each chapter builds on the first edition by offering new evidence of the changes in Spain’s social structure between the fourteenth and seventeenth century. Every part of society is examined, culminating in a final section that is entirely new to the second edition and presents the changing social practices of the period, particularly in response to the growing crises facing Spain as it moved into the seventeenth century. Also new to this edition is a consideration of the social meaning of culture, specifically the presence of Hermetic themes and of magical elements in Golden Age literature and Cervantes’ Don Quijote. Through the extensive use of case studies, historical examples and literary extracts, Spanish Society is an ideal way for students to gain direct access to this captivating period.
Book Synopsis Early Public Libraries and Colonial Citizenship in the British Southern Hemisphere by : Lara Atkin
Download or read book Early Public Libraries and Colonial Citizenship in the British Southern Hemisphere written by Lara Atkin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access Pivot book is a comparative study of six early colonial public libraries in nineteenth-century Australia, South Africa, and Southeast Asia. Drawing on networked conceptualisations of empire, transnational frameworks, and ‘new imperial history’ paradigms that privilege imbricated colonial and metropolitan ‘intercultures’, it looks at the neglected role of public libraries in shaping a programme of Anglophone civic education, scientific knowledge creation, and modernisation in the British southern hemisphere. The book’s six chapters analyse institutional models and precedents, reading publics and types, book holdings and catalogues, and regional scientific networks in order to demonstrate the significance of these libraries for the construction of colonial identity, citizenship, and national self-government as well as charting their influence in shaping perceptions of social class, gender, and race. Using primary source material from the recently completed ‘Book Catalogues of the Colonial Southern Hemisphere’ digital archive, the book argues that public libraries played a formative role in colonial public discourse, contributing to broader debates on imperial citizenship and nation-statehood across different geographic, cultural, and linguistic borders.

Book Synopsis Spanish Society, 1400-1600 by : Teofilo F Ruiz
Download or read book Spanish Society, 1400-1600 written by Teofilo F Ruiz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish Society depicts a complex and fascinating country in transition from the late Middle Ages to modernity. It describes every part of society from the gluttonous nobility to their starving peasants. Through anecdotes, a lively style and portraits of figures such as St Teresa of Avila and Torquemada, the book reflects the character and humour with which the common Spaniard endured an often-wretched lot. Beginning with a description of the geography, political life, and culture of Spain from 1400 to 1600, the unfolding narrative charts the country's shifts from one age to the next. It unveils patterns of everyday life from the court to the brothel, from the 'haves' of the aristocracy and clergy to the 'have nots' of the peasantry and the urban poor. Historical records illuminate details of Spanish society such as the transition from medieval festivities to the highly-scripted spectacles of the early modern period, the reasons for violence and popular resistance and the patterns of daily living: eating, dressing, religious beliefs and concepts of honour and sexuality. This compelling account includes historical examples and literary extracts, which allow the reader direct access to the period. From the street theatre of village carnivals to the oppressive Spanish Inquisition, it gives an abiding sense of Spain in the making and renders vivid the colours of a passionate history.

Book Synopsis Work-Life Balance, Management Practices and Productivity by : Nicholas Bloom
Download or read book Work-Life Balance, Management Practices and Productivity written by Nicholas Bloom and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many critics of free-market liberalism argue that higher product-market competition and the "Anglo-Saxon" management practices it stimulates increases productivity only at the expense of employees' work-life balance (WLB). The empirical basis of these claims is unclear. To address this issue we use an innovative survey tool to collect the first international data on management practices and work-life balance practices, surveying 732 medium sized manufacturing firms in the US, France, Germany and the UK. We find that WLB outcomes are significantly associated with better management, so that well run firms are both more productive and better for their employees. After controlling for management practices, however, we find no additional relationship between WLB and productivity. WLB practices are also not reduced by tougher competition, suggesting no deleterious effect of competition on employees' working environment. Finally, looking at multinationals we find that US subsidiaries in Europe adopt the superior management practices of their US parent firms but the local WLB practices of their European competitors.
Book Synopsis The Effects of Massification on Higher Education in Africa by : G. T. G. Mohamedbhai
Download or read book The Effects of Massification on Higher Education in Africa written by G. T. G. Mohamedbhai and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa has experienced a dramatic escalation in the demand for higher education, beginning in the late 1960s and continuing today. This is partly in response to the relative success of the "Education for All" programmes implemented by many African countries, which resulted in very considerable expansions in primary and secondary enrollment and output. The pressure of this rising demand, in the face of inadequate resources, has posed major problems for policy makers as well as the leadership of higher education institutions. The purpose of this study is to make an initial assessment of the impact of these developments on the campuses of Africa, and to identify innovative approaches adopted to overcome the resource constraints. The study look first at the effects of the enrollment explosion on teaching, examination performance, physical facilities, institutional management, financing and the quality of student life. It then documents ways in which selected institutions are coping with the challenges.

Book Synopsis Third Sector Performance by : Richard Greatbanks
Download or read book Third Sector Performance written by Richard Greatbanks and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global financial crisis and colossal sovereign debt has resulted in the need for radical cuts in public expenditure in many countries. Against this background, the contributions in Third Sector Performance acknowledge that, as a result, more imaginative ways of delivering public services are being sought. In countries like the UK, the new concept of The Big Society envisages third sector, or not-for-profit, or charitable organizations and social enterprises stepping in to mitigate the loss of vital public services. This development also gives rise to the likelihood that third sector financial institutions such as credit unions and a possible 'Big Society Bank' will grow in importance. The performance of all these enterprises looks set to become a much more critical issue than it has been in the past. The editors have gathered in this volume, chapters reflecting the fact that third sector organizations are not the same as conventional businesses and are also subtly different from the public sector. There is currently a dearth of knowledge and a lack of research into issues around performance in the Third Sector or Civil Society. This book begins to fill a void in the knowledge base. The internationally sourced contributions represent a balanced offering of academic research findings and practitioner accounts from the Third Sector, together with a section devoted specifically to third sector finance institutions. This book will appeal, internationally, to policy makers within the third sector or involved in the management of n-f-p and voluntary organisations, as well as to those with responsibility for wider public policy, scholars teaching or researching in this area, and students of business and management preparing for roles in social enterprises.
