Louise A. Jackson, "Child Sexual Abuse in Victorian England"
English | 1999 | pages: 221 | ISBN: 041522649X | PDF | 4,5 mb
Child Sexual Abuse in Victorian England is the first detailed investigation of the way that child abuse was discovered, debated, diagnosed and dealt with in the Victorian and Edwardian periods.

The focus is placed on the child and his or her experience of court procedure and welfare practice, thereby providing a unique and important evaluation of the treatment of children in the courtroom. Through a series of case studies, including analyses of the criminal courts, the author examines the impact of legislation at grass roots level, and demonstrates why this was a formative period in the legal definition of sexual abuse. Providing a much-needed insight into Victorian attitudes, including that of Christian morality, this book makes a distinctive contribution to the history of crime, social welfare and the family. It also offers a valuable critique of current work on the history of children's homes and institutions, arguing that the inter-personal relationships of children and carers is a crucial area of study.

An-Magritt Jensen, Lorna McKee, "Children and the Changing Family: Between Transformation and Negotiation"
English | 2003 | pages: 189 | ISBN: 0415277736, 0415277744 | PDF | 0,9 mb
This timely and thought-provoking book explores how social and family change are colouring the experience of childhood. The book is centred around three major changes: parental employment, family composition and ideology. The authors demonstrate how children's families are transformed in accordance with societal changes in demographic and economic terms, and as a result of the choices parents make in response to these changes. Despite claims that society is becoming increasingly child-centred, this book argues that children still have little influence over the major changes in their lives.

This book breaks new ground by researching family change from the child's point of view. Through combinations from childhood experts in Scandinavia, the UK and America, the book shows the importance of studying children's lives in families in order to understand how far children are active agents in contemporary society.
Students of childhood studies, sociology, social work and education will find this book essential reading. It will also be of interest to practitioners in the social, child and youth services.

Stephen Ricci, "Cinema and Fascism: Italian Film and Society, 1922-1943"
English | 2008 | pages: 249 | ISBN: 0520253558, 0520253566 | PDF | 2,3 mb
This study considers Italian filmmaking during the Fascist era and offers an original and revealing approach to the interwar years. Steven Ricci directly confronts a long-standing dilemma faced by cultural historians: while made during a period of totalitarian government, these films are neither propagandistic nor openly "Fascist." Instead, the Italian Fascist regime attempted to build ideological consensus by erasing markers of class and regional difference and by circulating terms for an imaginary national identity. Cinema and Fascism investigates the complex relationship between the totalitarian regime and Italian cinema. It looks at the films themselves, the industry, and the role of cinema in daily life, and offers new insights into this important but neglected period in cinema history.

Katarzyna Paszkiewicz, "Cinema of/for the Anthropocene "
English | ISBN: 1032746351 | 2025 | 214 pages | EPUB | 9 MB
Cinema of/for the Anthropocene sheds new light on the question of how films can allow us to resituate ourselves within what is known today as the Anthropocene. The authors address this question through a variety of disciplines and theoretical perspectives, from film and cultural studies, new materialisms, critical posthumanism and animal studies, critical race theory and Indigenous media studies, to gender and sexuality studies, with a primary focus on films produced in the United States and Canada.

The volume moves beyond the mere acknowledgment of the devastating damage inflicted during the Anthropocene to think about new ways of inhabiting the world through concepts such as affect, response-ability, and more-than-human kinship. The writers in this collection respond to its invitation by addressing a range of genres and modes, thus complicating the apocalyptic discourses which have typically been central to the studies on the Anthropocene: in addition to dystopian films, the volume discusses animated films, Hollywood biopics, climate change documentaries, experimental film, comedy, horror sci-fi, as well as disease thriller and survival film. Taken together, the chapters offer cross-disciplinary readings of the cinema of/for the Anthropocene, showing ways in which it can help us re-orient our thinking to make sense of the current age and address the planetary-scale environmental catastrophe.

Scott A. Bollens, "Cities, Nationalism and Democratization"
English | 2007 | pages: 280 | ISBN: 0415419476, 1138867179 | PDF | 2,1 mb
Cities, Nationalism, and Democratization provides a theoretically informed, practice-oriented account of intercultural conflict and co-existence in cities. Bollens uses a wide-ranging set of over 100 interviews with local political and community leaders to investigate how popular urban policies can trigger 'pushes from below' that help nation-states address social and political challenges. The book brings the city and the urban scale into contemporary debates about democratic transformations in ethnically diverse countries. It connects the city, on conceptual and pragmatic levels, to two leading issues of today - the existence of competing and potentially destructive nationalistic allegiances and the limitations of democracy in multinational societies.

Bollens finds that cities and urbanists are not necessarily hemmed in by ethnic conflict and political gridlock, but can be proactive agents that stimulate the progress of societal normalization. The fuller potential of cities is in their ability to catalyze multinational democratization. Alternately, if cities are left unprotected and unmanaged, ethnic antagonists can fragment the city's collective interests in ways that slow down and confine the advancement of sustainable democracy. This book will be helpful to scholars, international organizations, and grassroots organizations in understanding why and how the peace-constitutive city emerges in some cases while it is misplaced and neglected in others.

City of Song: Music and the Making of Modern Jerusalem
by Michael A. Figueroa
English | 2022 | ISBN: 0197546471 | 265 Pages | True PDF | 21 MB

Modern Jerusalem, a city central to Jewish, Muslim, and Christian religious imaginaries and the political epicenter of the Israeli-Palestinian crisis, is to put it mildly a highly contested space. More surprising, perhaps, is that its musical landscape not only reflects these rifts but also helped to define them as the ancient city transitioned to modernity during the twentieth century. In City of Song: Music and the Making of Modern Jerusalem, author Michael A. Figueroa argues that musical renderings of Jerusalem have been critical to the formation of Israeli political consciousness. The book demonstrates how Israeli songwriters helped to shape their public's territorial imagination- creating images of a city at once heavenly and earthly, that dwells in longing, that must not be forgotten, that compels one to bereave the dead, that represents the fulfilment of prophecy, and that is the site of immense cultural diversity. The dynamic history of its representation in lyrics and music helps dispel any notion that the Israeli-Palestinian crisis is timeless, intractable, and based on static, essential identities; while there are continuities across historical divides, radical change constantly transpires.
City of Song combines analyses of musical meaning, political discourse, and public performance over the long twentieth century (1880s-2010) to reveal how the Israeli-Palestinian crisis' territorial fixation on Jerusalem has been constructed, historically contingent, and subject to artistic intervention in modernity. Through a musical history of Jerusalem, Figueroa introduces a novel, humanities-centered approach to one of the world's most contested cities, and one of the defining cultural and political questions of our era.

Classical General Equilibrium Theory by Lionel W. McKenzie
English | August 21, 2002 | ISBN: 0262134136 | 336 pages | PDF | 1.39 Mb
Although general equilibrium theory originated in the late nineteenth century, modern elaboration and development of the theory began only in the 1930s and 1940s. This book focuses on the version of the theory developed in the second half of the twentieth century, referred to by Lionel McKenzie as the classical general equilibrium theory. McKenzie offers detailed and rigorous treatment of the classical model, giving step-by-step proofs of the basic theorems. In many cases he elaborates on the individual steps to give a fuller understanding of the underlying principles. His goal is to provide readers with a true mastery of the methodology so that they can derive new results that will further enrich their thinking about general equilibrium theory. Special attention is given to the McKenzie model, in which it is not assumed that the number of firms is given but rather that technologies or activities are available to any agents who can supply the resources they require. The McKenzie model is used to establish the turnpike theorems of optimal and competitive capital accumulation.

Marcos D. Katz, "Cognitive Wireless Networks: Concepts, Methodologies and Visions Inspiring the Age of Enlightenment of Wireless Communications"
English | 2007 | pages: 725 | ISBN: 1402059787 | PDF | 79,1 mb
In the Age of Enlightenment the German philosopher Immanuel Kant encouraged people to use their own mind as the basis for reasoning instead of following dogmatic religious rules - Sapere aude! (dare to know!) - Today wireless communication networks are increasingly becoming aware of the conditions of its their component parts and surrounding environment. Cognition, a continuous process involving sensing, reasoning, understanding and reacting, can be applied to wireless networks in order to adapt the system to the highly dynamic wireless ecosystem. The ultimate goals are to enhance the efficiency in the use of radio resources as well as to improve both link and network performance. This book presents a detailed overview of a rapidly emerging topic in modern communications: cognitive wireless networks. The key aspects of cognitive and cooperative principles in wireless networks are discussed in this book. Furthermore, Cognitive Wireless Networks advocates the concept of breaking up the cellular communication architecture by introducing cooperative strategies among wireless devices. Cognitive wireless networking is the key to success in handling the upcoming dynamic network configurations and exploiting this cross-over to the fullest extent.

Coloured Petri Nets: Basic Concepts, Analysis Methods and Practical Use By Kurt Jensen
1996 | 241 Pages | ISBN: 3642082432 | PDF | 8 MB
This book presents a coherent description of the theoretical and practical aspectsof Coloured Petri Nets (CP-nets or CPN). It shows how CP-nets have been developed- from being a promising theoretical model to being a full-fledged languagefor the design, specification, simulation, validation and implementation oflarge software systems (and other systems in which human beings and/or computerscommunicate by means of some more or less formal rules). The bookcontains the formal definition of CP-nets and the mathematical theory behindtheir analysis methods. However, it has been the intention to write the book insuch a way that it also becomes attractive to readers who are more interested inapplications than the underlying mathematics. This means that a large part of thebook is written in a style which is closer to an engineering textbook (or a users'manual) than it is to a typical textbook in theoretical computer science. The bookconsists of three separate volumes.The first volume defines the net model (i.e., hierarchical CP-nets) and thebasic concepts (e.g., the different behavioural properties such as deadlocks, fairnessand home markings). It gives a detailed presentation of many smaIl examplesand a brief overview of some industrial applications. It introduces the formalanalysis methods. FinaIly, it contains a description of a set of CPN toolswhich support the practical use of CP-nets. Most of the material in this volume isapplication oriented. The purpose of the volume is to teach the reader how toconstruct CPN models and how to analyse these by means of simulation.The second volume contains a detailed presentation of the theory behind theformal analysis methods - in particular occurrence graphs with equivalenceclasses and place/transition invariants. It also describes how these analysis methodsare supported by computer tools. Parts of this volume are rather theoreticalwhile other parts are application oriented. The purpose of the volume is to teachthe reader how to use the formal analysis methods. This will not necessarily requirea deep understanding of the underlying mathematical theory (although suchknowledge will of course be a help).The third volume contains a detailed description of a selection of industrialapplications. The purpose is to document the most important ideas and experiencesfrom the projects - in a way which is useful for readers who do not yethave personal experience with the construction and analysis of large CPN diagrams.Another purpose is to demonstrate the feasibility of using CP-nets and theCPN tools for such projects.
