        The silence of Barbara Synge

        by Bill McCormack

        'The silence of Barbara Synge' provides a fascinating companion volume to Bill McCormack's acclaimed 'Fool of the family' (2000), a biography of the playwright J.M. Synge (1871-1909). Taking the alledged death of Mrs John Hatch (née Synge) in 1767 as a focal point, this book explores the varied strands of the Synge family tree in eighteenth and nineteenth century Ireland. Key events in the family's history are carefully documented, including a suicide in 1769 which is echoed in an early Synge play, the effects of the famine which influenced 'The playboy of the western world' in 1907, and the behaviour of Francis Synge at the time of the union. 'The silence of Barbara Synge' is a unique work of cultural enquiry, combining archival research, literary criticism, and religious and medical history to pull the strands together and relate them to the family's literary descendent J.M. Synge. ;

        Trade unions and democracy

        Strategies and perspectives

        by Edited by Mark Harcourt and Geoffrey Wood

        Available for the first time in paperback, this book explores the role of trade unions as products of, and agents for, democracy. The crisis facing established democratic institutions in the advanced societies has been widely noted. In response, there has been increasing interest in the role of civil society actors, ranging from established socio-political collectives to new grassroots organisations. On the one hand, conventional wisdom holds that organised labour in the advanced societies has remained locked in a cycle of political marginalisation and decline. On the other hand, unions continue to represent a significant component of society within most industrialised countries. Indeed, in many cases, they have demonstrated a capacity for effective renewal and for co-ordinating their efforts with other civil society actors as part and parcel of the current groudswell of public opinion against the neo-liberal orthodoxy. The book brings together a distinguished panel of leading and emerging scholars in the field, and provides a critical assessment of the current role of unions in society, their capacity to impact on state policies in such a manner as to ensure greater accountability and fairness, and the nature and extent of internal representative democracy within the labour movement. This volume will be of interest to students and academics in the fields of industrial relations, critical management studies, political studies and sociology, as well as trade union and community activists.

        Rappen lernen

        by Mark Greif

        'Unsere Sprache kostet nichts. Sie gehört uns allen. Man kann sie nicht privatisieren.' 1989 beging Mark Greif einen großen Fehler: Er entschied sich für Indie-Rock – und gegen Hip-Hop. Als er 20 Jahre später versucht, selbst Rappen zu lernen, um dieses Versäumnis wiedergutzumachen, stößt er auf schier unüberwindbare Hindernisse: die anspruchsvolle Atemtechnik, das Wort 'Nigger', die Affinität zu Materialismus und Gewalt. In 'Rappen lernen' setzt Greif nicht nur dem Hip- Hop ein Denkmal, sondern er entwirft zugleich eine Kulturgeschichte von Schwarz und Weiß und erzählt davon, was es bedeutet, in neoliberalen Zeiten erwachsen zu werden.

        Local government today

        by J. Chandler, Bill Jones

        Local government today provides a comprehensive analysis of the structure, finance, management and democratic framework for local government in Britain. This new edition has been substantially rewritten to encompass the many changes to the structure and function of the system since 2000, including developments flowing from the 2007 Local Government Act. The study discusses how, during the Blair years, local governments came to be seen once again as centrally important institutions within Britain's political system. However, they are not seen as organisations that can function as separate agencies, undertaking all their duties 'in-house'. They are now required to work in partnership with the private, public and voluntary sectors to deliver local services and represent local interests. It is further argued that, for the first time in over a century, the barriers between civil servants and senior local government officers are being eroded as central government begins to incorporate leading local government officials into its decision-making processes. This established textbook also offers a comparative focus by showing how the British system differs from the structures for local governance in Western Europe and the United States. ;

        Schwarz Blau Blut

        Ein Cop über Rassismus und Polizeigewalt in den USA

        by Matthew Horace

        28 Jahre lang war er als schwarzer Polizist auf den Straßen der USA im Einsatz. Er kennt sie alle: die Helden, die Mörder, die Rassisten, die Dealer, die korrupten Kollegen und die Opfer. Und er kennt die Zusammenhänge. In Schwarz Blau Blut erzählt Matthew Horace von einem System, das außer Kontrolle geraten ist – actionreich und informativ. Ein Mann auf der Flucht, der mit acht Schüssen in den Rücken niedergestreckt wird, ein Obdachloser, den ein Streifenwagen erfasst, brennende Geschäfte in Ferguson, I can´t breathe, I can´t breathe … Solche Bilder aus den USA gehen mit erschreckender Regelmäßigkeit um die Welt, gefolgt von schockiertem Entsetzen. Doch die richtige Frage stellt im Anschluss niemand: Was verursacht die Gewalt? Schwarz Blau Blut gibt darauf eine Antwort. Ein heftiges Buch von der Front, von einem, der beide Seiten kennt. Für alle, die verstehen wollen, warum so viele schwarze Menschen unschuldig sterben.

        Russian politics today

        by Michael Waller, Bill Jones

        This introductory text, written by an established authority on communist and post-communist politics, describes how Vladimir Putin has turned to those with backgrounds in the military and security structures to provide stability in today's Russian Federation, following the democratising reforms of Gorbachev and the ensuing instability of the Yeltsin presidency. Against the background of an increasing authoritarianism, which has restored features of the Soviet political system, it examines the attempts by social and economic groups to assert themselves against the state using embryonic democratic forms that fall far short of pluralism. The book's fourteen chapters offer an exceptionally broad coverage. It will appeal to first- and second-year students in higher education, but its deliberately accessible style will also make it attractive to sixth-form students and the general reader. ;

        Karl Polanyi

        New perspectives on the place of the economy in society

        by Edited by Mark Harvey, Ronnie Ramlogan and Sally Randles

        The work of Karl Polanyi has gained in influence in recent years to become a point of reference to a wide range of leading authors in the fields of economics, politics, sociology and social policy. Newly available in paperback, this volume is a combination of reflections on, and assessment of, the nature of Polanyi's contribution and new strands of work, both theoretical and empirical, that has been inspired by Polanyi's insights. It gathers together the key contributions to the first ever workshop on the work of Karl Polanyi held in the United Kingdom. Several of the contributions develop Polanyian ideas in relation to contemporary capitalism. However, in a critical spirit, other contributions in the volume substantially transform his concept 'instituted economic process' in considering a broad range of contemporary socio-economic change: markets for mobile telephony, call centre operations and European labour markets.
