The Changing Museum

The Changing Museum

Clive Gray

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2022
sidottu
Using the example of New Walk Museum, Leicester, and its collections, the complexity, multi-causality, and reasons for change in museums are examined and explained. The 170 years history of New Walk provides an original basis and innovative approach to be adopted towards explaining museum change. The book makes use of original interview and archive material to examine how and why social, economic, political, and professional developments affected the work that was undertaken in New Walk. The time-span covered is much longer than is normal for a book on museum history and is longer than for almost all the national museums in the UK, with this allowing for a nuanced understanding of the causes and consequences of museum change over time. The problems and possibilities of undertaking museum history research are also discussed. Detailed examination of the ways in which a variety of societal developments fed into museum change is a key feature of the book. The book is aimed at all those with an interest in understanding how and why change affects museum practice and will be of interest to museum professionals, academics, and students in museum studies, history, politics, and sociology as well to the general museum visitor who would like to discover more about the institutions that they visit.

The Role of Today's Museum

The Role of Today's Museum

Clive Gray; Vikki McCall

Routledge
2020
sidottu
The Role of Today’s Museum provides a thorough investigation of what museums do and why. Arguing that museums are multifunctional institutions, the book examines the consequences of this for the services that museums provide, the publics to whom they are provided and the providers themselves.Adopting a wide perspective on understandings of the roles of museums and considering the different environments within which museums operate, Gray and McCall provide a new perspective on how transformations, as well as the gaps between intended policies and the actual work that is undertaken within museums, can be both identified and understood. By differentiating between social, economic and political visions and expectations of museums, the analysis in this book allows for a fuller understanding of what these organisations do and provide for their societies and the struggles and negotiations that surround their existence.The Role of Today’s Museum takes a critical, interdisciplinary approach to studying museums and museum policy. As a result, the book will be of interest to academics and students engaged in the study of museums, cultural policy, social policy, cultural sociology, public policy and cultural and political economy. Highlighting the gaps that exist between policy ideals and museum practices, the book also provides valuable insights to policy-makers and practitioners.

An Introduction to Human–Animal Relationships

An Introduction to Human–Animal Relationships

Clive R. Hollin

Routledge
2021
sidottu
An Introduction to Human–Animal Relationships is a comprehensive introduction to the field of human–animal interaction from a psychological perspective across a wide range of themes.Hollin examines the topic of the relationships between humans and animals as seen in owning a companion animal alongside more indirect relationships such as our approaches to eating meat. The core issues under discussion include the moral and ethical issues raised in using animals for entertainment, in therapy, to keep us safe, and in sports such as horse racing. The justifications for hunting and killing animals as sport and using animals in scientific experimentation are considered. The closing chapter looks to the future and considers how conservation and climate change may influence human–animal relationships. This key text brings an important perspective to the field of human–animal studies and will be useful to students and scholars in the fields of psychology, sociology, animal welfare, anthrozoology, veterinary science, and zoology.

Analytical Estimates of Structural Behavior

Analytical Estimates of Structural Behavior

Clive L. Dym; Harry E. Williams

CRC Press
2019
nidottu
Explicitly reintroducing the idea of modeling to the analysis of structures, Analytical Estimates of Structural Behavior presents an integrated approach to modeling and estimating the behavior of structures. With the increasing reliance on computer-based approaches in structural analysis, it is becoming even more important for structural engineers to recognize that they are dealing with models of structures, not with the actual structures. As tempting as it is to run innumerable simulations, closed-form estimates can be effectively used to guide and check numerical results, and to confirm physical insights and intuitions.Spend Less Time Generating Numbers, and More Time Understanding What They MeanThis book encourages readers to think about structures and their models in a way that is rooted in classic elementary elasticity—depending less on advanced mathematical techniques and more on the dimensions and magnitudes of the underlying physics. The authors stretch the mold, emphasizing and more explicitly describing the modeling process. The focus is on learning which calculations to perform and how to validate and interpret the results—skills that will be increasingly useful for professional engineers.Chapters cover: Key principles and techniques of mathematical modeling, including dimensional analysis, scaling, linearity, and balance and conservation lawsBasic structural modelsHow to develop and express physical intuitionHow to track the behavior of arches under lateral loadTwo methods of analyzing coupled discrete systems—Castigliano’s theorems and Rayleigh’s quotient—to lay a foundation for their application to continuous systemsHow to derive simple, accurate estimates of the transverse displacements of structures modeled in terms of coupled Timoshenko beamsHow to

Thomas Wride and Wesley’s Methodist Connexion

Thomas Wride and Wesley’s Methodist Connexion

Clive Murray Norris

Routledge
2020
sidottu
This book highlights the life and writings of an itinerant preacher in John Wesley’s Methodist Connexion, Thomas Wride (1733-1807). Detailed studies of such rank and file preachers are rare, as Methodist history has largely been written by and about its leadership. However, Wride’s ministry shows us that the development of this worldwide movement was more complicated and uncertain than many accounts suggest.Wride’s attitude was distinctive. He was no respecter of persons, freely criticising almost everyone he came across, and in doing so exposing debates and tensions within both Methodism and wider society. However, being so combative also led him into conflict with the very movement he sought to promote. Wride is an authentic, self-educated, and non-élite voice that illuminates important features of Eighteenth-Century life well beyond his religious activities. He sheds light on his contemporaries’ attitudes to issues such as the role of women, attitudes towards and the practice of medicine, and the experience and interpretation of dreams and supernatural occurrences. This is a detailed insight into the everyday reality of being an Eighteenth-Century Methodist minister. As such, this text will be of interest to academics working in Methodist Studies and Religious History, as well as Eighteenth-Century History more generally.

Policing Ethically

Policing Ethically

Clive Harfield; Allyson Macvean

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
At a time when much in UK policing is the subject of intense public and media scrutiny, there prevails a practitioner discourse about policing ethically that is ongoing formally in police ethics committee discussions, and probably informally in station offices, canteens, classrooms, and police vehicles. Since January 2024, these conversations have added emphasis with the publication of the College of Policing’s revised Code of Ethics with which policing practitioners in England and Wales are coming to grips. This book explores thinking about policing ethically for those who have to use and implement the ideas – to those who, when law and policy is silent on the matter before them, nevertheless have to make a justifiable decision and act upon it.Applicable to policing generally, not just to the UK, Part 1 of this book presents conceptual contextualization for thinking about policing ethically. Following which, Part 2 considers practical implications of policing ethically.Some of the key topics that the book covers are as follows:• Discussions of managing power and vulnerability• Implementing frontline ethics in practice• The process of making ethically informed decisions• Considerations around ethics and the use of artificial intelligence by policing practitioners• Prerequisites to ethical leadership• Considering “public interest” in relation to policing ethically• Risk management as a moral obligationDrawing upon the policing practitioner and policymaking experience of the authors, this book will be of interest and use to all those involved in delivering policing: constables of all ranks (student, probationary, and experienced), policing community support officers, professional support staff, policing ethics committee members, and policymakers. The book is also a contribution to the wider academic literature on policing and ethics, and will be of interest not only to policing ethicists and ethnographers but also to students and policymakers in the fields of criminology, sociology, and governance.

Surveillance, Closed Circuit Television and Social Control

Surveillance, Closed Circuit Television and Social Control

Clive Norris; Jade Moran

Routledge
2020
nidottu
The rise of CCTV camera surveillance in Britain has been dramatic. Practically every major city now boasts a CCTV system aimed at, among other things, preventing, detecting and reducing the fear of crime. Increasingly these developments are mirrored in villages, shopping malls, residential estates, transport systems, schools and hospitals throughout the country. In short, for the majority of citizens it is now impossible to avoid being monitored and recorded as we move through public space. Surveillance, CCTV and Social Control represents the first systematic attempt to account for this phenomenon. It brings together leading researchers from the fields of anthropology, criminology, evaluation, geography, sociology and urban planning to explore the development, impact and implications of CCTV surveillance. Accordingly attention is directed to a number of key questions. How does CCTV fit with the trends of late modernity? Does CCTV reduce crime or merely shift it elsewhere? How should CCTV be evaluated? What is the significance of CCTV for women's safety? How adequate is the regulation of CCTV? In the light of recent technological developments what is the future of CCTV surveillance?

The Phenomenology of Audio Drama

The Phenomenology of Audio Drama

Clive Cazeaux

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2026
sidottu
Audio drama is overlooked by philosophy even though it raises many philosophical questions. It seems to be a contradiction: drama is a form of showing yet the exemplary form of showing a world—visual representation—is absent from it. What kinds of world do we find if we concentrate on what is revealed through sound and the voice? According to fans of the medium, ‘the best pictures are in the head’ but might its potency be more fully realized if we consider that the best pictures are in the body? This book shows how phenomenology addresses these questions and provides new ways of theorizing audio drama. It transpires that the phenomenologist and the audio dramatist share the same predicament: how is a world going to make itself apparent to us or to our audience when our materials—sound and the voice—are only available when we are active and noisy in our environment? The book gives a clear account of phenomenology’s rethinking of embodiment, technology and causality, and how it enables the drawing of relations between audio drama, sound art and audio fiction. Instead of contradiction, sound and the voice emerge as principal expressions of dramatic structure and human being-in-the-world, and audio drama is shown to be an art form that manifests the power of causality to enrich aesthetic sensibility. The Phenomenology of Audio Drama will appeal to philosophers working in aesthetics and modern European philosophy, and to theorists and practitioners within the fields of audio drama, sound art and performance.
