Political Tone

Political Tone

Roderick P. Hart; Jay P. Childers; Colene J. Lind

University of Chicago Press
2013
sidottu
It's not what you say, but how you say it. Solving problems with words is the essence of politics, and finding the right words for the moment can make or break a politician's career. Yet very little has been said in political science about the elusive element of tone. In "Political Tone", Roderick P. Hart, Jay P. Childers, and Colene J. Lind analyze a range of texts - from speeches and debates to advertising and print and broadcast campaign coverage - using a sophisticated computer program, Diction, that parses their content for semantic features like realism, commonality, and certainty, as well as references to religion, party, or patriotic terms. Beginning with a look at how societal forces like diversity and modernity manifest themselves as political tones in the contexts of particular leaders and events, the authors proceed to consider how individual leaders have used tone to convey their messages: How did Bill Clinton's clever dexterity help him recover from the Monica Lewinsky scandal? How did Barack Obama draw on his experience as a talented community activist to overcome his inexperience as a national leader? And how does Sarah Palin's wandering tone indicate that she trusts her listeners and is open to their ideas? By focusing not on the substance of political arguments but on how they were phrased, "Political Tone" provides powerful and unexpected insights into American politics.

Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow

Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow

Oran Elaine S.; Boris Jay P.

Cambridge University Press
2005
pokkari
Reactive flows encompass a broad range of physical phenomena, interacting over many different time and space scales. Such flows occur in combustion, chemical lasers, the earth's oceans and atmosphere, and stars and interstellar space. Despite the obvious physical differences in these flows, there is a striking similarity in the forms of their descriptive equations. Thus, the considerations and procedures for constructing numerical models of these systems are also similar, and these similarities can be exploited. Moreover, using the latest technology, what were once difficult and expensive computations can now be done on desktop computers. This book takes account of the explosive growth in computer technology and the greatly increased capacity for solving complex reactive flow problems that have occurred since the first edition of Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow was published in 1987. It presents algorithms useful for reactive flow simulations, describes trade-offs involved in their use, and gives guidance for building and using models of complex reactive flows.

Over the last few years, Orthodox Jewish private schools, also known as yeshivas, have been under fire by a group of activists known as Young Advocates for Fair Education, run by several yeshiva graduates, who have criticized them for providing an inadequate secular education. At the heart of the yeshiva controversy lies two important interests in education: the right of the parent to choose an appropriate education, which may include values-laden religious education, and the right of each child to receive an appropriate education, as guaranteed by the state. These interests raise further questions. If preference is given to the former, how much freedom should be given to a parent in choosing an appropriate education? If the latter, how does the state define what constitutes an appropriate education or measure the extent to which an appropriate education has been achieved? And when can—or must—the state override the wishes of parents? The purpose of this book is to explore these difficult questions.

White-Collar Crime

White-Collar Crime

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

nidottu
White-Collar Crime: An Opportunity Perspective analyzes white-collar crime using the opportunity perspective, which assumes that all crimes depend on offenders recognizing an opportunity to commit an offense. The authors explicate the processes and situational conditions that facilitate opportunities for white-collar crimes and the likelihood of being victimized by white-collar crime. In addition, they offer potential policy solutions that will mitigate this persistent and widespread social problem while being realistic and balanced in their treatment of the difficulties of control. With this fourth edition, Benson and Simpson have enlisted the aid of two young white-collar crime scholars, Jay P. Kennedy and Melissa Rorie, who bring new areas of expertise to the book that enhance its analytical depth and coverage of both white-collar crime and the opportunity perspective. New up-to-date case studies are included along with examinations of recent investigations into white-collar crime and its control. These timely updates reaffirm that this rigorous yet accessible book will remain a core resource for undergraduate and early graduate courses on white-collar crime.

Jay Bluerock will take you on a sacred journey, where you will experience adventures that will challenge you in ways that you do not expect. So go with Jay on this sacred adventure from childhood to adulthood. Travel with him when, as a child, he experienced his first sacred adventure at the family cabin, which is nestled in beside Big Rock River and the Cascade Mountains. Follow him along the path of his adolescent years in high school and read about how he fell in love for the first time and was honored to be associated student-body president and, later, won a basketball scholarship to play basketball at Starbright University. After reading about these adventures, let yourself go into his past more, and he will show you how reading a spiritual book inspired him to hitchhike around the United States as he was trying to find his guru. Youll understand how this experience changed his life. Then read about his involvement in the social revolution here in the United States in the sixties and seventies. He will want to take you into the stories about what it was like to be a draft resister and what he went through in order to marry a beautiful and wealthy undergraduate student at Starbright University. See what it was like to be on trial for draft resistance and win. Then learn how he helped create the first free alternative elementary school in the state of Washington. As you continue to travel with him, youll see what it was like to be an alcoholic and addict. Youll witness how the insanity of the disease led him into a divorce and how he survived it all on his way to recovery. Finally, he shares with you what it was like for him to live as a clean and sober Christian living in todays world.
