Taylor & Francis Regulating Foreign Direct Investment for
Book SynopsisThis book offers a comprehensive overview of the relationship between Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) regulation and sustainable development in Bangladesh.It is widely accepted that FDI-induced development is essential for the growth of undeveloped economies, but it can create a conflict between the investors' goal of profit maximisation and the host state's pursuit of economic gains. FDI-induced development is especially important for the economy of Bangladesh, the focus of this book, which argues that a balanced regulatory approach is necessary to ensure that FDI benefits all stakeholders. In examining Bangladesh's FDI regulatory regime, the authors reveal that it is investor-centric and lacks a development-oriented approach. They discuss the relevant laws, practices, mechanisms, and institutions that govern the entrance regulations and incentives for foreign investment, as well as the protection of the environment and human rights, with special attention to labour rights,

Taylor & Francis Emirati Women Journalists
Book SynopsisThis book presents a rare investigation of the media landscape and gender dynamics in Emirati newsrooms, with a socio-cultural focus on the influence of tribal patriarchalism in determining Emirati women's role as newsmakers.Shedding light on the stories of 40 Emirati and Arab expat journalists, including pioneer Emirati women journalists, the book offers insight into how these journalists construct gender differences and identity and how this influences their everyday attitudes, conversations, routines, and journalistic practices.

Taylor & Francis Putting Daoist Thought into Practice
Book SynopsisThis book shows how Chinese wisdom originating many centuries ago is still highly relevant to our lives today as the Daoist classics provide insightful prescriptions on how to live a life full of happiness, contentment, and healthy longevity. They also provide guidance regarding personal ethics, sustainable economics, and achieving enlightenment.The book contains reflections on how to achieve happiness drawing from the Liezi, a Daoist classic, and it examines Daoist ideas about nourishing life to achieve longevity and the marked similarity between these principles and people living in âœblue zonesâ today with the highest concentration of centenarians. It explores Daoist views on consciousness and enlightenment in the Laozi and Zhuangzi and their close resemblance to some of the most influential âœnew ageâ teachings on the subject. It highlights the ethical character of a Daoist sage by drawing on the Daoist classic of the Wenzi and enumerates lesso

Taylor & Francis The United States and the LusoBrazilian Empires
Book SynopsisThis volume highlights factors that led to the onset of the U.S. presence within colonial Brazilâs mercantilist economy and then the independent Brazilian empireâs agricultural, scientific, religious and educational institutions.The book examines the interaction of U.S. businessmen, explorers, scientists, immigrants, missionaries and educators with the dominant institutions of the Luso-Brazilian empires. Employing an institutionalist framework to describe the interplay between forces of change versus forces of inertia that conditioned the economic and sociocultural development of the two empires, the book explains how Portuguese and Brazilian technical innovators employed contacts with the United States for more than a century to attempt to alter Brazilâs economy and society.This book will be of interest to students and scholars of U.S.-Brazil relations and Latin American history more generally.

Taylor & Francis Citizenship and Democratic Innovations in Europe
Book SynopsisThis book brings together scholarship and debates on citizenship and democratic innovation, and examines how democratic innovations might change, or even consolidate, the existing contours of citizenship.Arguing that the nexus between research on citizenship and democratic innovations can be found in the praxis approach to citizenship, where citizenship can be framed as a realm of actions and practices, the book shifts the discussion from the institutional level into a more conceptual realm of analysis. Taking stock of the democratic innovations at the local level, the national level and the EU-level, such as citizen assemblies, referendums and participatory budgeting, the book further surveys and maps their contribution to the democratic quality of citizenship across various European countries.This book is of key interest to scholars and students of democratic innovations, citizenship studies, democratization, governance and more generally to public policy, and European Politics and Studies.

Taylor & Francis Africa and the Metaphysical Empire
Book SynopsisThis book investigates whether African cultures can appropriate some useful aspects of Western cultures, or whether doing so risks falling into the metaphysical empire and diluting African identity.Ngugi wa Thiongâo and Ndlovu-Gatsheni characterise the metaphysical empire as an intangible non-physical and non-geographical invasion of the mental universe of formerly colonised peoples. As mutual exclusivists, they argue that authentic decolonization necessitates a complete dissociation of the African and her culture from colonial heritage. However, cultural appropriationists such as Wole Soyinka, Chinua Achebe and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie argue that the African adoption of colonial heritage such as the English language is in no way antithetical to decolonization. This book delves into the debate by exploring the strengths and weaknesses of cultural appropriationism and, on the other hand, testing the validity of mutual exclusivism. The book demonstrates that cultural appropriat

Taylor & Francis A Historical Introduction to Indian Contract Law
Book SynopsisThis book offers a genealogy of the core concepts of Indian contract law, tracing their trajectory from the nineteenth century soil of English jurisprudence in which they germinated, to their transplantation into the Indian Contract Act 1872, and the interpretation of the provisions containing these concepts by Indian courts and influential treatise-writers, over the last one hundred and fifty years. The concepts studied by the book are: i) formation; ii) consideration; iii) privity; iv) capacity; v) consent; vi) frustration; vii) damages viii) stipulated sums; and ix) unjustified enrichment. With respect to each of these concepts, the book seeks to provide an account of the state of the English law at the eve of the drafting of the Act, with a particular emphasis on the impact the civil law had on the concept and a close study of the legislative history of the provisions of the Act codifying the concept, with a view to uncovering what the drafters had originally envisaged. Based on extensive doctrinal and archival research, the book offers:â a historical background to the drafting of the Indian Contract Act and the codification process.â a jurisprudential exploration of the limitations of common law codification gleaned from the working of the Act. â the draft of the contract code accompanying the report of the Indian Law Commissioners in 1866, which is essential to understand the intention of the drafters of the Act.â historical insights which hold the key to illuminating contemporary contract law problems of the kind courts routinely grapple with.

Taylor & Francis Urban River Restoration and Waterfront
Book SynopsisThe book looks at recent initiatives for river restoration and riverfront intended to contribute to making Asian cities clean, resilient and investment worthy. It uses an interdisciplinary perspective to assert that insufficient consideration of social issues in the planning and management of urban riverscapes leads to social exclusion. Utilising diverse entry points and theoretical orientations, every chapter of the volume contributes to the exploration of the way urban river restoration is entwined with questions around urban citizenship, violation of international housing rights, poverty and vulnerability, livelihoods, and the use of common property resources. It explores the social aspects of well-known cases and examples of river restoration projects from Asian megacities such as Lahore, Dhaka, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Bangkok, Manila, and secondary cities in India. While touching on the technical, ecological, and recreational aspects of urban river restoration and riverfront develo

Cambridge University Press Europe After Enlargement
Book SynopsisThis 2007 book contains essays on five big challenges to the ongoing development of the European Union, namely the new European Constitution, European finances and the euro, the need to boost economic growth, and competition in both new member states and countries further to the East.Trade ReviewA pantheon of economic thinkers grapples with the problems facing Europe. No longer about East vs. West or even rich vs. aspiring, the issue now is whether all of Europe can stay (relatively) rich while it ages. As the authors make clear, for really dealing with this complex problem and all its facets, it's much later than you think. -- Simon Johnson, Sloan School of Management, MITEnlargement has irreversibly transformed the European Union and this must lead to a rethinking of its principles and policies.

Taylor & Francis Gender The Basics
Book SynopsisGender: The Basics is an engaging introduction to the influence of cultural, historical, biological, psychological, and economic forces on ways in which we have come to define and experience femininity and masculinity, and on the impact and importance of gender categories. Highlighting that there is far more to gender than biological sex, it examines theories and research about how and why gender categories and identities are developed and about how interpersonal and societal power relationships are gendered. It takes a global and intersectional perspective to examine the interaction between gender and a wide range of topics including: Relationships, intimacy, and concepts of sexuality across the lifespan The workplace and labour markets Gender related violence and war Public health, poverty, and development Gender and public leadership This new edition includes increased coverage of trans visibility and activism,Trade Review"Wonderfully comprehensive while focusing on the basics. In a time when there is an increased understanding of the complexity of gender, it can be overwhelming to introduce novice students to the topic. However, Lips concisely outlines the key issues with excellent coverage of current and classic theories and research from around the world while using stimulating examples that will keep students engaged as they develop the foundation needed in order to master the complexity of gender." - Dr. Emily Keener, Slippery Rock University"From first to last, this is a thoroughly scholarly and feminist review of theory and research in the psychology of women and gender. Dr. Lips has accomplished the difficult feat of providing a succinct overview that is nevertheless impressive in scope. Topics will be engaging to students at the introductory level and will be practical refreshers for more advanced study. Importantly, chapters provide a structure for comparisons among perspectives that will facilitate civil and tolerant class conversations. Ultimately, students will gain intellectual maturity and a more nuanced understanding of gender and feminism."- Dr. Cheryl Travis, University of Tennessee, Knoxville"Gender: The Basics offers an excellent and comprehensive introduction to gender and its intersections with other systems of power , privilege, and oppression. Reading the second edition, I was reminded in vivid detail of how gender is embedded in all aspects of biological, psychological, and social life, from the way in which our personal relationships unfold to the power dynamics governing institutional practices. New to the second edition is a chapter on theoretical frameworks regarding gender that will delight students and scholars from multiple disciplines for distilling many complex theories to an accessible level. Hilary Lips is a magnificent writer, relying on a deep knowledge of gender as identity, relationship, and social structure in lifespan and global contexts." - Katherine R. Allen, Ph.D., Professor of Human Development and Family Science, Virginia Tech"In Gender: The Basics, Dr. Hilary Lips outlines the major topics needed to understand all things gender while bringing every page to life.

Taylor & Francis The Pacific War
Book SynopsisThe Pacific War is an umbrella term that refers collectively to a disparate set of wars, however, this book presents a strong case for considering this assemblage of conflicts as a collective, singular war. It highlights the genuine thematic commonalities in the legacies of war that cohere across the Asia-Pacific and shows how the wars, both individually and collectively, wrought dramatic change to the geo-political makeup of the region. This book discusses the cultural, political and social implications of the Pacific War and engages with debates over the warâs impact, legacies, and continuing cultural resonances. Crucially, it examines the meanings and significance of the Second World War from a truly international perspective and the contributors present fascinating case studies that highlight the myriad of localised idiosyncrasies in how the Pacific War has been remembered and deployed in political contexts. The chapters trace the shared legacy that the individual wars haTrade Review"This book offers a useful collection of essays for scholars and students researching and studying the aftermath and memory of the Second World War in the Asia-Pacific region."KEVIN BLACKBURN, Nanyang Technology University, Singapore, Australian Historical Studies, 47, 2016"The Pacific War certainly offers once-passed-by rich material for statement and test of new conceptions...With the Pacific War’s 75th anniversary soon upon us, we might look forward to more memory, more history.

Taylor & Francis The Foundations of Celestial Reckoning
Book SynopsisThe Foundations of Celestial Reckoning gives the reader direct access to the foundational documents of the tradition of calculation created by astronomers of the early Chinese empire between the late second century BCE and the third century CE. The paradigm they established was to shape East Asian thought and practice in the field of mathematical astronomy for centuries to come. It was in many ways radically different from better known traditions of astronomy in other parts of the ancient world. This book includes full English translations of the first three systems of mathematical astronomy adopted for use by imperial astronomical officials, together with introductory material explaining the origin and nature of each system, and a general introduction to the work as a whole. The translations, which are accompanied by the original Chinese text, give a consistent rendering of all technical terms, and include detailed explanatory notes. The text in which the second of Trade ReviewChristopher Cullen's expert translations and commentaries provide long-needed access to three foundational texts of Chinese astronomy, and an opening to a much wider understanding of an ancient scientific tradition comparable in richness and sophistication to that of the Mesopotamians and Greeks.- Alexander Jones, Institute for the Study of the Ancient World, New York University, USA"This book stands out as one of the notable landmarks in the progress of researching on Chinese systems. I highly recommend this important and well-written book for historians of science and all who are interested in Chinese mathematical astronomy."- Tang Quan, Xianyang Normal University, Journal for the History of Astronomy, August 2017"Cullen has provided another excellent contribution toward making Chinese astronomical texts available to a wider audience and giving the history of Chinese mathematical astronomy its well-deserved place within the general history of non-Western and premodern astronomy."- Benno van Dalen, Isis journal, March 2018 "This volume will be a fundamental for the study of the history of ancient astronomy, not only Chinese, but also Arabic and, because of the transmission of Arabic astronomy to Byzantium in the late period Byzantine." - Touwaide, Byzantinische Zeitschrift issue 110 (= 2017/4). Alexander Jones, Institute for the Study of the Ancient World, NYU "This is an ideal volume for the new series Scientific Writings from the Ancient and Medieval World. The tradition of scientific astronomy in China rivals that of Mesopotamia and the Classical world in complexity and sophistication, but whereas almost all the central documents of Greek astronomy and a large part of those from Babylonia are accessible in good translations and commentaries, only a tiny fraction of the abundant Chinese astronomical literature can be consulted by scholars who do not read Chinese." Michael Loewe, University of Cambridge "It will form a most valuable contribution both for specialist readers in the sciences and in Chinese studies, by providing access to primary source material not easily known or readily understood. It will fill a deficiency in secondary writing that concerns both the history of science and China’s own science and technology. The book is to be welcomed."Table of ContentsChapter 1.

Taylor & Francis Migration and Citizenship Attribution
Book SynopsisHow do states in Western Europe deal with the challenges of migration for citizenship? The legal relationship between a person and a state is becoming increasingly blurred in our mobile, transnational world. This volume deals with the membership dimension of citizenship, specifically the formal rules that states use to attribute citizenship. These nationally-specific rules determine how and under what conditions citizenship is attributed by states to individuals: how one can acquire formal citizenship status, but also how this status can be lost. Migration and Citizenship Attribution observes various trends in citizenship policies since the early 1980s, analysing historical patterns and recent changes across Western Europe as well as examining specific developments in individual countries. Authors explore the equal treatment of women and men with regard to descent-based citizenship attribution, along with the process of convergence between countries with âius soliâ aTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Forensic Science in Contemporary American Popular
Book SynopsisThis book identifies, traces, and interrogates contemporary American culture's fascination with forensic science. It looks to the many different sites, genres, and media where the forensic has become a cultural commonplace. It turns firstly to the most visible spaces where forensic science has captured the collective imagination: crime films and television programs. In contemporary screen culture, crime is increasingly framed as an area of scientific inquiry and, even more frequently, as an area of concern for female experts. One of the central concerns of this book is the gendered nature of expert scientific knowledge, as embodied by the ubiquitous character of the female investigator. Steenberg argues that our fascination with the forensic depends on our equal fascination with (and suspicion of) women's bodiesâwith the bodies of the women investigating and with the bodies of the mostly female victims under investigation.Table of Contents Part 1: The Forensic Sub-Genre 1.

Taylor & Francis Religion and the Subtle Body in Asia and the West
Book SynopsisSubtle-body practices are found particularly in Indian, Indo-Tibetan and East Asian societies, but have become increasingly familiar in Western societies, especially through the various healing and yogic techniques and exercises associated with them. This book explores subtle-body practices from a variety of perspectives, and includes both studies of these practices in Asian and Western contexts.The book discusses how subtle-body practices assume a quasi-material level of human existence that is intermediate between conventional concepts of body and mind.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Britains Moment in Palestine
Book SynopsisIn 1917, the British issued the Balfour Declaration for military and strategic reasons. This book analyses why and how the British took on the Palestine Mandate. It explores how their interests and policies changed during its course and why they evacuated the country in 1948.During the first decade of the Mandate the British enjoyed an influx of Jewish capital mobilized by the Zionists which enabled them not only to fund the administration of Palestine, but also her own regional imperial projects. But in the mid-1930s, as the clouds of World War Two gathered, Britain's commitment to Zionism was superseded by the need to secure her strategic assets in the Middle East. In consequence she switched to a policy of appeasing the Arabs. In 1947, Britain abandoned her attempts to impose a settlement in Palestine that would be acceptable to the Arab States and referred Palestine to the United Nations, without recommendations, leaving the antagonists to settle their conflict on Trade ReviewMichael Cohen has written a comprehensive and fair-minded account of the Palestine mandate from the antecedents of the Balfour declaration in 1917 to the consequences of the founding of the state of Israel in 1948. The dominant themes are the contradictions of British rule and the military as well as the demographic aims of the Zionists to ‘make Palestine as Jewish as England was English’. His book will be used as a work of reference as well as a balanced judgment from all angles, Arab and American as well as British and Zionist. Readers will be especially interested in his interpretation of anti-Semitism, Arab collaboration with the Nazis, and the Holocaust in relation to the creation of the Jewish state.

Taylor & Francis Ltd A Social History of Company Law
Book SynopsisThe history of incorporations legislation and its administration is intimately tied to changes in social beliefs in respect to the role and purpose of the corporation. By studying the evolution of the corporate form in Britain and a number of its colonial possessions, the book illuminates debates on key concepts including the meanings of laissez faire, freedom of commerce, the notion of corporate responsibility and the role of the state in the regulation of business. In doing so, A Social History of Company Law advances our understanding of the shape, effectiveness and deficiencies of modern regulatory regimes, and will be of much interest to a wide circle of scholars.Trade Review'McQueen's timely book fills a gap in the literature by covering a period that was not studied comprehensively in recent decades. Its social history approach, particularly apt in the current period of corporate governance crisis, places company law in a thicker context. The book extends beyond Britain into its Empire and thus should interest a wider circle of scholars.' Ron Harris, Tel Aviv University, Israel 'This is a carefully argued and richly detailed piece of corporate law and legal history scholarship which should become a standard reference. It underlines the vital importance of understanding history for anyone who wishes to be truly engaged in current debates about the regulation, governance and social responsibility of corporations. ' Stephen Bottomley, ANU College of Law, Australia 'Rob McQueen reveals the modern corporate form as an embodiment of narrow interests and values; a product of political and ideological choices. Brilliant, thoroughly researched and elegantly written, A Social History of Company Law not only demonstrates the origins of the corporation, but also inspires the question - how might it be remade into something different?' Joel Bakan, University of British Columbia, Canada 'This path-breaking study provides a fascinating comparative social history of company law in Britain and the Australian Colonies, their relationship to colonialism, empire building and imperialism, and their larger socio-economic significance. McQueen effectively mines the archives and secondary literature to advance our understanding of the institutional legacies of the past and to offer a nuanced account of how the history of company law in Britain and the Australian Colonies laid the foundation for similar but divergent patterns of contemporary corporate governance. The book is clear and accessible, and will be of interest to students and scholars in Law and History, and to those concerned with the interplay between law and society.'

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Routledge History Handbook of Central and
Book SynopsisStatehood examines the extending lines of development of nation-state systems in Eastern Europe, in particular considering why certain tendencies in state development found a different expression in this region compared to other parts of the continent. This volume discusses the differences between the social developments, political decisions and historical experience that have influenced processes of state-building, with a focus on the structural problems of the region and the different paths taken to overcome them. The book addresses processes of building social orders and examines the contribution of state institutions to social and cultural integration and disintegration. It analyzes institutional and personnel continuities that have outlasted the great political changes of the twentieth century and addresses the expansion of state activity in shaping property relations in agriculture and industry as well as in social security and family politics.

Taylor & Francis Ltd ChicanaLatina Testimonios as Pedagogical
Book SynopsisWhile the genre of testimonio has deep roots in oral cultures and in Latin American human rights struggles, the publication and subsequent adoption of This Bridge Called My Back (Moraga & Anzaldúa, 1983) and, more recently, Telling to Live: Latina Feminist Testimonios (Latina Feminist Group, 2001), have demonstrated the power of testimonio as a genre that exposes brutality, disrupts silencing, and builds solidarity among women of colour. Within the field of education, scholars are increasingly taking up testimonio as a pedagogical, methodological, and activist approach to social justice, which transgresses traditional paradigms in academia. Unlike the more usual approach of researchers producing unbiased knowledge, the testimonio challenges objectivity by situating the individual in communion with a collective experience marked by marginalization, oppression, or resistance. This approach has resulted in new understandings about how maTable of ContentsIntroduction – Chicana/Latina Testimonios: Mapping the Methodological, Pedagogical, and Political 1.

Through them we learn of the tortuous routes by which they came to terms with the painful stories of their grandparents and their own identity. The postscript offers a historical overview of the silence about Islamized Armenians in most histories of the genocide.When Fethiye cetin first published her groundbreaking memoir in Turkey, My Grandmother, she spoke of her grandmother''s hidden Armenian identity. The book sparked a conversation among Turks about the fate of the Ottoman Armenians in Anatolia in 1915.
