Taylor & Francis Navigating the Spiritual Dimension of Childhood
Book SynopsisFocusing on enhancing spiritual development, this book guides educators in thoughtful pedagogy and practice to encourage and recognise young childrenâs spirituality in everyday educational settings. Young childrenâs innate spirituality is an integral part of their everyday lives, as well as their personal growth and development. This book draws on the Reggio Emilia approach to develop an environment that will nurture the spiritual expression of children. Based on qualitative research, the book presents childrenâs expression of spirituality through flow, creativity, imagination, caring or empathy towards another, attraction to nature and natural phenomena, joy, wonder and awe, curiosity and engagement. It guides the reader in creating environments in which children explore, discover and play, and where spiritual expression can manifest and be nurtured. Each chapter concludes with a variety of practical suggestions to support the reader in noticing and nurturing spirituality in children. Drawing on interdisciplinary research and perspectives, this accessible book is written for pre-service and in-service educators alike, offering an inspiring way to recontextualise childhood and design pedagogy.

Taylor & Francis Human Subjectivity Selfhood and Selfscapes
Book SynopsisThis book explores cross-cultural similarities and differences of human subjectivity and selfhood through the concept of selfscapes.Utilizing an ethnographic and person-centered approach to the study of human subjectivity, Selfscapes, Selfhoods, and Subjectivities demonstrates that autopoietic processes are informed by both the constraints of a social and material ecology acting on a particular person and by how that person is remembering and habitually responding to that history of engagement with the world. While the co-constitution of social and historical circumstance and individual reactivity and memory is universal, the way an autopoietic process unfolds within any given social ecology will vary, sometimes greatly, from person to person. Drawing on a broad theoretical base, this book is essential reading for anthropologists, psychoanalysts, social psychologists, and anyone seeking to understand the varieties and particularities of human subjectivity and selfhood.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Freedom of Information
Book SynopsisFreedom of Information: A Practical Guide for UK Journalists is written to inform, instruct and inspire journalists on the investigative possibilities offered by the Freedom of Information Act. Covering exactly what the Act is, how to make FOI requests and how to use the Act to hold officials to account, Matt Burgess utilises expert opinions, relevant examples and best practice from journalists and investigators working with the Freedom of Information Act at all levels.The book is brimming with illuminating and relevant examples of the Freedom of Information Act being used by journalists, alongside a range of helpful features, including: end-of-chapter lists of tips and learning points; sections addressing the different areas of FOI requests; text boxes on key thoughts and cases; interviews with leading contemporary journalists and figures working with FOI requests.Supported by the online FOI Directory (wTrade ReviewExcellent concept... The topics look right, and the order of presentation makes sense... I am curious why the author doesn’t seem to list journalists associated with the Guardian or the Independent, both of which have made considerable use of FOI. – Jane Kirtley, Silha Professor of Media Ethics and Law at the School of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Minnesota, USAThe outline looks fully inclusive and suitable for the identified target audience. It might be important to sales, and placement of the book, that the title somehow reflect that it is U.K. specific. – Shannon Martin, School of Journalism, Indiana University, USAFOI is a useful tool for journalists and one increasingly accepted and acknowledged. A guide would be useful and attractive to a wide audience... Throughout I would ensure that there are plenty of case studies and quotes-I would recommend using in- text boxes to give small vignettes and cases throughout the book. Each chapter should end with tips...I would use the interviews to inform the vignettes/cases throughout.– Benjamin Worthy, Department of Politics, Birkbeck College, London, UKI would suggest including Heather Brooke as one of the interviewees for the book, even if she’s written a competing book. Brooke is one of the most effective users of FOI in the UK. – Johan Lidberg, Senior Lecturer in Journalism, School of Journalism, Australian and Indigenous Studies, Monash University, Melbourne, AustraliaThere is good detail on the possible competition from other books. I know all of these and I regard this proposal - if it succeeds - in being potentially better for journalists. – Dr Eamonn O’Neill, Director, MSc in Investigative Journalism, Strathclyde University, UKTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Sustainable Development and Corporate Social
Book SynopsisCorporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become an important concept in the last few decades. Although it originated in the developed countries of the West, the concept has been embraced and adapted by corporations and policy-making agencies in many developing countries. Not surprisingly, given the importance of growth and development as policy objectives in these countries, CSR has had a significant impact on sustainable development.Sustainable Development and Corporate Social Responsibility explores the evolution of CSR across the developed and developing world, with a particular focus on China and sustainable development. Through an extensive review of the literature and relevant case studies, the book examines whether CSR can make a contribution to sustainable development, how the patterns of CSR in developed Western economies compare to that in the rapidly growing economy of China, what trade-offs take place between CSR and economic growth as well as the future oTrade Review‘If you ever wondered how the world of corporate social responsibility and sustainability was changing given the growing influence of China and other emerging economies, then this is the book for you. It examines how countries such as China are increasingly changing the shape of corporate responses to sustainability. In an interesting look into the future, the book explores the issues that will shape social responsibility over the coming decades.’ -- Richard Welford, Chairman of CSR Asia‘This book takes us back to the origin of corporate social responsibility and its role in sustainable development from a global perspective and with a special focus on China. It explores how businesses contribute to sustainable development and what the future trends are like. With China becoming increasingly influential in global economy and sustainable development agenda, this book is certainly a must-read for anyone who thinks deeply about the future of global sustainability.’ -- Hongwu Zhong, Director of CSR Research Center, Chinese Academy of Social ScienceTable of ContentsChapter 1.

Taylor & Francis PolicyMaking and Planning in the Health Sector
Book SynopsisNow, as when this book was originally published in 1982, health services have shown themselves only too capable of absorbing a large share of the resources that nations have available for public and private expenditure. Then, as now, as nations are faced with problems of slow or negative economic growth, government resources are increasingly directed towards setting limits on the resources absorbed by the health sector. Looking especially at the UK and USA, the book explores the challenges that countries face in attempting to improve the health and well-being of their communities through conscious planning of health-related activities. It is argued that there is often a huge credibility gap between the rhetoric of comprehensive planning and the reality of health policy-making and planning in many societies. The book identifies feasible approaches that can be made to improve decision-making in the health sector.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Privatising Criminal Justice
Book SynopsisPrivatising Criminal Justice explores the social, cultural and political context of privatisation in the criminal justice sector. In recent years, the criminal justice sector has made various strategic partnerships with the private sector, exemplified by initiatives within the police, the prison system and offender services. This has seen unprecedented growth in the past 30 years and a veritable explosion under the tenure of the coalition government in the UK.This book highlights key areas of domestic and global concern and illustrates, with detailed case studies of important developments. It connects the study of criminology and criminal justice to the wider study of public policy, government institutions and political decision making. In doing so, Privatising Criminal Justice provides a theoretical and practical framework for evaluating collaborative public and private-sector response to social problems at the beginning of the twenty-first century.ATrade Review"Almost all State-based criminal justice professionals in recent years have instinctively feared and disliked the ‘privatisation' that they were persistently being threatened with, and fought as best they could to keep their services public. Sometimes, the wider public themselves were indifferent to their struggles (as with probation), and others, more supportive (as with legal aid). What all the struggling agencies had in common was a shallow understanding of what they were up against, and a naive belief that merely empirical and ethical arguments could resist it. Hamerton and Hobbs’ fine book, the first comprehensive British treatment of the subject for more than a decade, offers a new way of conceptualising privatisation, maps the dramatic changes that have already occurred and indicates what may be to come. Not all privatisations go smoothly—recent attempts to upgrade electronic monitoring have been a foreseeable fiasco—but without a book like this to guide us, all attempts to salvage and sustain best practice in the new penal landscape will be futile."Professor Mike Nellis, University of Strathclyde "Hamerton and Hobbs’ Privatising Criminal Justice is an authoritative and timely discussion of the most disturbing commercialized intrusion into the criminal justice arena since Thatcher and Reagan introduced the idea in the 1980s. It is essential reading for anyone—politicians, the public, students and practitioners—interested in the role global business plays in the delivery of commercialized justice."Emeritus Professor Bob Lilly, Northern Kentucky University "At one point in time, not so very long ago, the idea of ‘private prisons’ or ‘private police’ was either something ‘that happened in the USA’ or in dystopian visions of ‘the future’. But today, that ‘future’ is here, the private justice sector is as familiar in the UK as in the USA, and the long history of commercial engagement in the criminal justice system needs re-visiting and explaining. This needs expert guides. Hamerton and Hobbs provide an exemplary account of comparative and contemporary influences and events that have shaped a complex story of operational crises, public finance austerity, privatisation and profiteering, and failure to sustain principles of democratic welfarism. Highly recommended for anyone wishing to get to grips with these issues and debates."Emeritus Professor Nigel South, University of Essex Table of Contents1.Introduction 2.From Nationalisation to Privatisation, or Bringing Capitalism to the People 3.The Free Market Panacea, and Putting the State up for Sale 4.Transatlantic Crossing, or the Appeal of American Know-How in the Age of Risk, Responsibilisation, and Rising Crime 5.Public Sector Outsourcing, the Contract Culture and the Myth of the Regulatory State 6.The Private and Public Police, or There and Back 7.The Public and Private Police, or Back to the Future 8.Prison Privatisation and the Foundation of Public Privilege 9.Prison Privatisation and Normalisation in the Neoliberal State: Between Dispersal of Decency and Diffusion of Duty 10.The Ascendency of the Business Ideal and the Marketisation of Offender Services 11.Interrogating the Failed Probation Experiment, or It Wasn’t Broken so Why Did They Try and Fix It?

However, the key terms are well defined, which will help less-able students grasp the more complex ideas. There are also everyday examples of how the research is relevant that will make it easier for students to apply their knowledge.

Book SynopsisCovering the development of the Cold War from the mid-twentieth century to the present day, The Cold War 19492016 explores the struggle for world domination that took place between the United States and the Soviet Union following the Second World War. The conflict between these two superpowers shaped global history for decades, and this book examines how this conflict developed into a nuclear arms race, spurred much of the wider world towards war and eventually resulted in the collapse of the Soviet empire. In this accessible yet comprehensive volume, Martin McCauley examines not only the actions of the United States and the Soviet Union but also the effects upon and involvement of other regions such as Africa, Central America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Key themes include the Sino-Soviet relationship and the global ambitions of the newly formed People's Republic of China, the rise and fall of communism in countries such as Cuba, Angola and Ethiopia, the US defeTrade Review"The Cold War 1949–2016 is the most readable, comprehensive, knowledgeable narrative of the Cold War.

Book SynopsisThe true story of the greatest conspiracy in US historyand how to fight back.Have you ever seen a baby pigeon? You haven't, have you? No one has, not in many, many years. They used to be everywhere. You couldn't walk out of your front door in New York City in the 1930s without seeing dozens of those little guys scurrying around. Today, there are millions of grown up pigeons in New York, but not a baby pigeon to be seen. That's because they come out of the factory as adults.This is one of the many smoking guns of the bird drone surveillance crisis. Since 1959, the Deep State has mercilessly slaughtered over 12 billion birds and replaced them with identical drones that are designed to spy on private citizens and report their every action directly to the government. From pet canaries to Sesame Street, the shadowy figures that pull the strings have infiltrated every aspect of our society, making a mockery of civil liberties while the American people live in

Book SynopsisTwo award-winning journalists offer the most comprehensive inside story behind our most significant modern political drama: the House impeachment of Donald Trump. Having spent a year essentially embedded inside several House committees, Michael D''Antonio and Peter Eisner draw on many sources, including key House leaders, to expose the politicking, playcalling, and strategies debated backstage and to explain the Democrats'' successes and apparent public failures during the show itself.High Crimes opens with Nancy Pelosi deciding the House should take up impeachment, then, in part one, leaps back to explain what Ukraine was really all about: not just Joe Biden and election interference, but a money grab and oil. In the second part, the authors recount key meetings throughout the run up to the impeachment hearings, including many of the heated confrontations between the Trump administration and House Democrats.
