Colonial Legacies

Colonial Legacies

It is well known that Taiwan and South Korea, both former Japanese colonies, achieved rapid growth and industrialization after 1960. The performance of former European and American colonies (Malaysia, Singapore, Burma, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia, and the Philippines) has been less impressive. Some scholars have attributed the difference to better infrastructure and greater access to education in Japan's colonies. Anne Booth examines and critiques such arguments in this ambitious comparative study of economic development in East and Southeast Asia from the beginning of the twentieth century until the 1960s. Booth takes an in-depth look at the nature and consequences of colonial policies for a wide range of factors, including the growth of export-oriented agriculture and the development of manufacturing industry. She evaluates the impact of colonial policies on the growth and diversification of the market economy and on the welfare of indigenous populations. Indicators such as educational enrollments, infant mortality rates, and crude death rates are used to compare living standards across East and Southeast Asia in the 1930s. Her analysis of the impact that Japan's Greater Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere and later invasion and conquest had on the region and the living standards of its people leads to a discussion of the painful and protracted transition to independence following Japan's defeat. Throughout Booth emphasizes the great variety of economic and social policies pursued by the various colonial governments and the diversity of outcomes. Lucidly and accessibly written, ""Colonial Legacies"" offers a balanced and elegantly nuanced exploration of a complex historical reality. It will be a lasting contribution to scholarship on the modern economic history of East and Southeast Asia and of special interest to those concerned with the dynamics of development and the history of colonial regimes.

The basis for George Stevens's major motion picture starring Katharine Hepburn in her Oscar-nominated leading role.In a small Midwestern town in the wake of World War I, Alice Adams delightedly finds herself being pursued by Arthur Russell, a gentleman of a higher social class in life. Desperate to keep her family's lower-middle-class status a secret, she and her parents concoct various schemes to keep their family afloat. Though the realities of her situation eventually reveal themselves and her relationship with Arthur fizzles, Alice's acceptance of this leads her to seek out work to support her family with an admirable resiliency. An enchanting and authentic tale of a family's aspirations to seek more out of life, Alice Adams reveals the strength of the human spirit and its incredible ability to evolve. Originally published in 1921, this bestselling Pulitzer Prize-winning novel was adapted into film twice, and its heroine, the sparkling Alice Adams, still resonates with readers today. With a new foreword by Anne Edwards. Vintage Movie Classics spotlights classic films that have stood the test of time, now rediscovered through the publication of the novels on which they were based.

Bliv bikiniklar på 28 dage! Vi vil alle gerne være den bedste udgave af os selv, ikke mindst når sommeren nærmer sig, og det snart er bikinitid igen. I BIKINI BOOTCAMP får du en komplet 28-dages træningsplan, der gør vinterkroppen sommerklar på rekordtid. Planen er baseret på Anne Bechs helt egen FIT-metode med enkle, men effektive øvelser, der kan laves på stuegulvet, hotellet eller stranden, og med masser af gode kostråd og lækre opskrifter på velsmagende og slankende bikinimad. I forhold til Annes tidligere bog, Guide til gudindekrop, er skruen strammet en smule, for det kræver en ekstra indsats at komme i bikiniform på 28 dage. Men når du først har fået kickstartet strandformen, vil det være det hele værd. Og forhåbentlig vil dine nye, sunde vaner sidde fast – de kan nemlig sagtens fungere side om side med et glas koldt vin på terrassen eller en dejlig is på ferien.
Bootleggers and Beer Barons of the Prohibition Era

Bootleggers and Beer Barons of the Prohibition Era

J. Anne Funderburg

McFarland Co Inc
2014
pokkari
This work is an accurate, wide-ranging, and entertaining account of the illegal liquor traffic during the Prohibition Era (1920 to 1933). Based on FBI files, legal documents, old newspapers and other sources, it offers a coast-to-coast survey of Volstead crime--outrageous stories of America's most notorious liquor lords, including Al Capone and Dutch Schultz. Readers will find the lesser known Volstead outlaws to be as fascinating as their more famous counterparts. The riveting tales of Max Hassel, Waxy Gordon, Roy Olmstead, the Purple Gang, the Havre Bunch, and the Capitol Hill Bootlegger will be new to most readers. Likewise, the exploits of women bootleggers and flying bootleggers are unknown to most Americans. Books about Prohibition usually note that Canadian liquor exporters abetted the U.S. bootleggers, but they fail to go into detail. Bootleggers and Beer Barons examines the major cross-border routes for smuggling liquor from Canada into the U.S.: Quebec to Vermont and New York, Ontario to Michigan, Saskatchewan to Montana, and British Columbia to Washington.

This work includes a foreword by Elisabeth Paice. "Flexible Training and Working for Doctors and Dentists" is a real-world, practical guide to the opportunities available for flexible training and working. It explains the current rules and regulations and promotes the 'Improving Working Lives' initiative for NHS workers - a Department of Health priority. It presents a wealth of information, including details on sabbaticals, management roles, maternity and sickness leave, academic life and the GP returner scheme. This straightforward guide will be invaluable to doctors and dentists working in primary and secondary care, medical and dental students and staff, and doctors and dentists in training. Healthcare policy makers and shapers will find it an excellent resource, along with healthcare managers and careers counsellors. "The first book on flexible training and working in medicine and dentistry. The subject matter is highly topical. The proportion of women in medicine and dentistry rises each year, and with it the demand for less than full-time working. This book will prove a useful resource for any doctors or dentists who are contemplating working less than full-time themselves, or who guide or manage others making these choices. Clinical tutors, course organisers and deanery staff will find it invaluable, and unique." - Elisabeth Paice, in her Foreword.

Det finns energi att hämta i empiriska iakttagelser och det kan vara en fröjd att utvinna den energin. Så lyder budskapet i den här vänboken till Malin Åkerström, professor emerita vid Lunds universitet. Med nedslag i vitt skilda fält och projekt vill författarna exemplifiera och analysera det speciella samspel som äger rum mellan empiri och forskare i olika samhällsvetenskapliga ämnen. Det rör sig om en tolkande aktivitet som är nyfiken och öppen för överraskningar och lyckoträffar. Malin Åkerström har under flera decennier bedrivit forskning i den här andan och publicerat en rad färgstarka och stilbildande böcker och artiklar. Den empiriska glädjen är en antologi uppdelad i fyra delar: brott och straff, kultur och kontroll, interaktioner och ritualer samt forskare och fält. Boken innehåller bidrag från 30 författare vid olika lärosäten och riktar sig till forskare och studenter i sociologi, kriminologi, socialt arbete och socialantropologi samt angränsande ämnen.
