CHAINS of JUSTICE: One Link at a Time

Holladay has written an excellent, fact filled contemporary mystery. On a dark and lonely road late at night our main character, "Troop", drives upon the scene of a violent wreck between a large van and a Tennessee State Trooper car. There are two men firing weapons into the crushed cruiser and when our main character sees that they also intend to burn the cruiser and its contents, he reacts instinctively and kills the two shooters with an old Model 12 Winchester. This event results in the saving of the life of a Federal District Judge. Our man "Troop", is then appointed by the Attorney General of the U.S. to a special protective position for the same Judge. The Judge is at the process in legal proceedings of handing down his findings. There are crucial shady corporations and individuals who will make every attempt to kill the Judge who is threatening to blow their criminal activities of drugs, guns and child slavery. Troop cannot trust anyone but his old friends to help him and the Judge through a tightly woven, information full and intricate path to truth. Troop first seems to be an everyday man, but with each turn of the page, he becomes something else and the reader gains great insight on the workings of the Judicial and Department of Justice
Coping with Crisis: The Resilience and Vulnerability of Pre-Industrial Settlements
Why in the pre-industrial period were some settlements resilient and stable over the long term while other settlements were vulnerable to crisis? Indeed, what made certain human habitations more prone to decline or even total collapse, than others? All pre-industrial societies had to face certain challenges: exogenous environmental hazards such as earthquakes or plagues, economic or political hazards from ’outside’ such as warfare or expropriation of property, or hazards of their own-making such as soil erosion or subsistence crises. How then can we explain why some societies were able to overcome or negate these problems, while other societies proved susceptible to failure, as settlements contracted, stagnated, were abandoned, or even disappeared entirely? This book has been stimulated by the questions and hypotheses put forward by a recent ’disaster studies’ literature - in particular, by placing the intrinsic arrangement of societies at the forefront of the explanatory framework. Essentially it is suggested that the resilience or vulnerability of habitation has less to do with exogenous crises themselves, but on endogenous societal responses which dictate: (a) the extent of destruction caused by crises and the capacity for society to protect itself; and (b) the capacity to create a sufficient recovery. By empirically testing the explanatory framework on a number of societies between the Middle Ages and the nineteenth century in England, the Low Countries, and Italy, it is ultimately argued in this book that rather than the protective functions of the state or the market, or the implementation of technological innovation or capital investment, the most resilient human habitations in the pre-industrial period were those than displayed an equitable distribution of property and a well-balanced distribution of power between social interest groups. Equitable distributions of power and property were the underlying conditions in pre-industrial societies that all
Politics and Policy in China's Social Assistance Reform

Politics and Policy in China's Social Assistance Reform

Every day in the People's Republic of China 70 million people receive help from the state through the minimum livelihood guarantee (dibao). What began as a reform in the city of Shanghai in the early 1990s is now a key component in the measures used by the Communist Party of China to maintain social stability and legitimacy. While scholars regularly discuss how effective dibao has been in alleviating poverty very little addresses what influenced its development. This book argues that in order to understand dibao we need to look at how the programme emerged and how it has developed in the years since. Drawing on newspaper articles, government reports and interviews with key officials and researchers, the book also addresses debate on the policy process in China as a whole.
