This volume, part of the Upper Tisza Project, investigates settlement patterns in the upland Zemplen region of northeast Hungary and interactions between the region and adjacent lowland areas. In analysing the results the authors conclude that prehistoric settlement in the region was seasonal, and based on the need to gather lithic raw materials. Permanent settlement came in the medieval period, with a monastic and castle dominated landscape of nucleated villages emerging.

In the five years since the first edition of this book published, there has been an accelerated rise in the number and influence of COO roles in the legal sphere. No longer the preserve of the largest national and international firms, mid-tier firms and even New Law and alternative legal service providers are considering a COO as a potential – perhaps even essential – component of law firm management, to achieve increased efficiency, productivity, and meet the demands of a highly competitive market. With contributions from a number of current law firm COOs, alongside some of the most respected and sought-after consultants working in this space, this second edition of Rise of the Legal COO examines the scope and variety of the legal COO role, and how the challenges and demands of the position have altered as law firms have evolved. It contains updated chapters from the first edition, and several brand new chapters covering topics such as: How the COO can enable innovation and digital transformation in their firm; The COO’s role in managing profitability and client engagement; The use of data in law firm management; and The New Law COO. There are also all-new, exclusive interviews with legal COOs from a variety of national and international firms, covering topics ranging from the importance of relationships and adapting to the new hybrid, post-COVID world, to encouraging innovation in firms and strategies to recruit and retain talent. There is no doubt that a good COO is an invaluable part of a firm’s management team, and the opportunities for talented individuals with broad operational management skills will continue to grow. Heavily backed up by the first-hand experience of the contributors, this title provides essential guidance to the current and future legal COO on the skills and strategies they need to succeed, and to law firms on how to recruit, integrate, and develop a COO who will be a good match for their culture and help them achieve their ambitions.

Archipelago is one of the most important and influential literary magazines of the last twenty years. Running to twelve editions, it was edited by Andrew McNeillie, with the assistance later of James McDonald Lockhart, and began as an attempt to reimagine the relationships between the islands of Ireland and Britain. Archipelago has brought together established and emerging artists in creative conversations that have transformed the study of islands, coasts and waterways. It journeys from the Shetlands to Cornwall, from the Aran Islands to the coast of Yorkshire, tracing the cultures of diverse zones through some of the best in contemporary writing about place and people. This collection gathers poetry, prose and visual art in clusters grouped around the Irish and British archipelago, with contributions from an array of significant artists. It includes newly commissioned work as well as an interview between Andrew McNeillie and Robert Macfarlane on the development of Archipelago across the years.

The Fishes of the Western North Atlantic series, which began publication in the 1940s by Yale University’s Sears Foundation for Marine Research, was from its beginnings conceived to synthesize and make accessible the wealth of information in widely scattered published accounts of the fish fauna of the region for both the layman and the specialist, presenting critical reviews rather than compilations. These reference works are still considered valuable and of interest today to both general audiences and the academic community. As described in the Preface to the first volume, the series was “written on the premise that it should be useful to those in many walks of life—to those casually … interested …, to the sportsman …, to the fisherman …, as well as to the amateur ichthyologist and the professional scientist.” These books remain authoritative studies of the anadromous, estuarine, and marine fishes of the waters of the western North Atlantic from Hudson Bay southward to the Amazon, ranking as primary references for both amateurs and professionals interested in fishes, and as significant working tools for students of the sea.

Klassisk og moderne medieteori er den første samlede danske fremstilling af medieteoriens centrale retninger, skoler og paradigmer. Behovet for en dansksproget grundbog om medieteori er blevet udtalt i takt med medie- og kommunikationsvidenskabens vækst i Danmark siden 1980’erne og interessen for mediernes rolle i tilstødende videnskaber. Medier udgør en central del af den moderne tilværelse og det moderne samfundsliv. Det gælder alt fra politik, kultur og religion til arbejde, fritid og forbrug. Bogen søger at udbrede kendskabet til førende teorier om medier og kommunikation. Desuden viser den, hvordan vores medieteoretiske forståelse har ændret sig i takt med forandringer i det medie- og informationsteknologiske landskab. Bogen tilbyder en historisk oversigt over medieteoriens fremkomst og udvikling. Tidsmæssigt griber bogen tilbage til det 20. århundredes begyndelse, hvor de første medieteoretiske betragtninger blev formuleret. Derpå følger en gennemgang af efterkrigstidens mere systematiske udvikling af medieteorien. Bogen slutter med en række teorier, der sætter forståelsesrammer for de ændringer, som de sidste års medieteknologiske udvikling – og i særdeleshed de digitale medier – afstedkommer for relationerne mellem medier, mennesker og samfund. Bogen er opbygget kronologisk og består af tre dele: ”Klassisk medie- og kommunikationsteori”, ”Nyere medieteori” og ”Forandringer af medier og kommunikation”. De enkelte kapitler præsenterer periodens centrale teorier og afsluttes med en oversigt over nøglebegreber.

Ideologiernas död har förutspåtts ett flertal gånger under åren, men gång på gång har vi också sett gamla ideologier återvända under nya beteckningar. I denna bok behandlar vi både nuet och det förflutna. Vi belyser en del av de politiska idéer och system i historien som fortsätter att utöva inflytande på samtiden. Vi granskar också den auktoritära statskapitalismen, som i fallet Kina, och ställer frågan om den är hållbar. Om så är fallet, hur kommer den att inverka på världen? Kommer den att bli förebilden, precis som liberal demokrati under lång tid har varit det för många människor och nationer? Kommer islamism, främlings- och invandrarfientliga partier och andra rörelser i marginalen av det politiska och ideologiska spektrumet i Europa, USA och den islamiska världen att befästa den rådande ordningen eller undergräva tilltron till den? Vilka är globaliseringens konsekvenser för politik och ideologi? Kommer svaret att bli ett världsparlament, en världsomfattande miljörörelse eller olika strömningar med religion som gemensam nämnare? Eller kommer vi kanske i stället att få se ett annat gammalt spöke återvända: nationalismen? Boken ingår i serien Engelsbergsseminarierna och utges i samarbete med Bokförlaget Atlantis och Axel och Margaret Ax:son Johnsons stiftelse för almännyttiga ändamål.
