Book Synopsis Prefects, Governors and Commissioners by : Gildas Tanguy
Download or read book Prefects, Governors and Commissioners written by Gildas Tanguy and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-28 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the Prefect an exception, surviving only in France and some countries influenced by Napoleon? No! This book tells the varied stories of the resilience, in most European States and under different names, of the prefectoral institution. It is the first comparative book in English studying these territorial administrators who have a go-between role in centre-periphery relations and a nodal role in territorial governance. Gathering a multidisciplinary team of scholars under the auspices of the European Group for Public Administration, this volume offers a fine-grained analysis of 17 national cases, examines cross-country data, and proposes a theoretical frame made of a Weberian ideal-type with three variants, to better comprehend and explain the permanence and changes of the prefectoral figure.
Book Synopsis Prefects and Governors in Nineteenth-century Europe by : Pierre Karila-Cohen
Download or read book Prefects and Governors in Nineteenth-century Europe written by Pierre Karila-Cohen and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-14 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection presents a pan-European history of intermediary government and administration in nineteenth-century Europe. Taking a closer look at senior government officials who represented the sovereign or state far away from the capital, the book highlights the intermediary nature of their roles, which fell somewhere between the municipality and central bureaucracy. Against the backdrop of revolution and upheaval brought about by the Enlightenment and the First World War, the nineteenth century was a crucial period for reform and political change. Taking a transnational approach, the contributors examine the similarities between the challenges that faced government officials in different European states, focusing on their common role as mediators: firstly, between the ‘centre’ and the ‘peripheries’; and secondly, between the population and hierarchies of power. The status and prerogative of these officials are discussed, providing insights into the lives of French Préfets, Prussian Oberpräsidenten, Austrian Statthalter, Italian Prefetti, dutch Commissarissen des Konings and governors in Russia and Spain. The special case of the United Kingdom, where there were neither prefects nor governors, serves as a mirror. Dismantling the barriers between different national histories, this book represents a comprehensive and comparative investigation into the roles of nineteenth-century provincial administrators in Europe, an important read for anyone researching European political history or the history of the state.

Book Synopsis Diversity as Strategic Opportunity by : Anna Simonati
Download or read book Diversity as Strategic Opportunity written by Anna Simonati and published by IAP. This book was released on 2024-03-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principle of equality has always been considered as one of the fundamental values of modern societies; it compels administration to provide equal treatment to all subjects it enters in touch with, which is normally expressed as a general prohibition of discrimination. However, in recent times, the idea, according to which equality is not based only on protection against discrimination but also on promotion of diversity as a source of richness for society, is widely shared. This book gives a multidisciplinary overview of some of the possible methods and tools which are nowadays experimented by administration, in order to properly face the practical problems connected to diversity. ENDORSEMENTS: "In this volume, Professor Anna Simonati has gathered a wide range of contributions which reflect on the nature of diversity, and its value in society today. Power structures are sticky. This volume reminds us that concepts as old as equality and equity, do not always manifest in ways that create diversity in these structures. The case studies within demonstrate that diversity will lead to empowerment - in other words, shifting the inherent power structures and opening opportunities for all. It is important for democracies to rebalance power structures, and deliberate administrative policies and practices aimed at diversity - as exemplified here - can make real differences for people. Critically, the volume also addresses diversity in education. Preparing the next generation for a world where diversity is a given, rather than a struggle is a worthy goal. This volume provides pathways for policy makers and those who deliver policy with a view to achieving this goal." — Adam Masters, The Australian National University "The book makes a substantive contribution to our understanding and appreciation of how diversity can and ought to be seen not only as something to be protected by means of non-discrimination rules and mechanisms, but also and indeed primarily as a major source of development and improvement for public administration and the public services. Diversity is indeed a strategic opportunity, and this collective work developed under the leadership of Professor Anna Simonati shows us why and how to make the most of such strategic opportunities for public organizations worldwide." — Edoardo Ongaro, The Open University "This Book is really precious because in its comparative approach, takes into account the legal provisions of many national Jurisdictions and the experience of many public Administrations all over the World. The Values of Diversity and Inclusion thus are considered non-only as general principles of Law, but in their action vis a vis the duty of Administrations to provide equal treatment to all subjects they enter in touch with. The aim of the Volume, as Anna Simonati explains, is not aimed at offering final and definite answers, nor a systemic study of the subject, but to address the various possible causes of discrimination and most importantly the possible remedies against it with a Case oriented Analysis. This collective work therefore it is extremely valuable to underline how the Public Policies and the Administrative Law tools can be fundamental -in many different ways- for the never ending struggle towards Equality and Justice." — Aristide Police, LUISS University

Book Synopsis The Book of Daniel by : Andre LaCocque
Download or read book The Book of Daniel written by Andre LaCocque and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second edition of a 1979 commentary on the book of Daniel. The commentary is completely revised, and the introduction in particular is here much extended and addresses fundamental questions regarding the book of Daniel and the apocalyptic movement it inaugurates (with 1 Enoch). Daniel is an indispensable trove and reference about issues like the apocalyptic vision of world’s periodized history, the notion of Son of Man, messianism without a messiah, the belief in resurrection, the kingdom of God, the centrifugal spread of divine revelation, and the positive role of the Jewish diaspora. This edition is meant for scholars, college and university researchers, and students of the Bible (of the Old Testament and New Testament) in general.
Download or read book Divided China written by Gungwu Wang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oneness of China is the norm; periods of divisions are aberrations this is how Chinese thinkers, leaders and ultimately the majority of Chinese people have regarded Chinese politics and history for more than 2,000 years.The oneness was never perfect. However, as long as certain minimal conditions were met and the polity which proclaimed that oneness was widely acknowledged, that was enough. Chinese ruling elites adopted this pragmatic approach so they could ensure that the ideal could always approximate Chinas reality.This fascinating book is a revised edition of a study undertaken to explain what happened during one of the worst periods of division in Chinese history the Wu-tai (Five Dynasties) period. What were the key factors that helped the centripetal forces to get back to the imperial norm? It begins with the final stage of decline of the Tang dynasty (618907) and ends 50 years later, when it became clear that the foundations for a last push towards unification was in place.

Book Synopsis Qing Governors and Their Provinces by : R. Kent Guy
Download or read book Qing Governors and Their Provinces written by R. Kent Guy and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Qing dynasty (1644–1911), the province emerged as an important element in the management of the expanding Chinese empire, with governors -- those in charge of these increasingly influential administrative units -- playing key roles. R. Kent Guy’s comprehensive study of this shift concentrates on the governorship system during the reigns of the Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong emperors, who ruled China from 1644 to 1796. In the preceding Ming dynasty (1368–1644), the responsibilities of provincial officials were ill-defined and often shifting; Qing governors, in contrast, were influential members of a formal administrative hierarchy and enjoyed the support of the central government, including access to resources. These increasingly powerful officials extended the court’s influence into even the most distant territories of the Qing empire. Both masters of the routine processes of administration and troubleshooters for the central government, Qing governors were economic and political administrators who played crucial roles in the management of a larger and more complex empire than the Chinese had ever known. Administrative concerns varied from region to region: Henan was dominated by the great Yellow River, which flowed through the province; the Shandong governor dealt with the exchange of goods, ideas, and officials along the Grand Canal; in Zhili, relations between civilians and bannermen in the strategically significant coastal plain were key; and in northwestern Shanxi, governors dealt with border issues. Qing Governors and Their Provinces uses the records of governors’ appointments and the laws and practices that shaped them to reconstruct the development of the office of provincial governor and to examine the histories of governors’ appointments in each province. Interwoven throughout is colorful detail drawn from the governors’ biographies.
