This book presents two systems of censorship and literary
promotion, revealing how literature can be molded to support
authoritarian regimes. The issue is complex in that at a
descriptive level the strategies and methods "new states" use to
control communication through the written word can be judged by how
and when formal decrees were issued, and how publishing media,
whether in the form of publishing companies or at the individual
level, engaged with political overseers. But equally, literature
was a means of resistance against an authoritarian regime, not only
for writers but for readers as well. From the point of view of
historical memory and intellectual history, stories of "people
without history" and the production of their texts through the
literary "underground" can be constructed from subsequent
testimony: from books sold in secret, to the writings of women in
jail, to books that were written but never published or distributed
in any way, and to myriad compelling circumstances resulting from
living under fascist authority. A parallel study on two fascist
movements provides a unique viewpoint at literary, social and
political levels. Comparative analysis of literary
censorship/literary reward allows an understanding of the balance
between dictatorship, official policy, and what literary acts were
deemed acceptable. The regime need to control its population is
revealed in the ways that a particular type of literature was
encouraged; in the engagement of propoganda promotion; and in the
setting up of institutions to gain international acceptance of the
regime. The work is an important contribution to the history of
twentieth-century authoritarianism and the development fascist
ideas.

Disney Studios turn their attention to Edgar Rice Burroughs'
classic tale with this lively animated adaptation. Tarzan (voiced
by Tony Goldwyn) is a human who was taken in and raised by gorilla
Kala (Glenn Close) when his parents were killed by Sabor the
leopard. Now a grown male, Tarzan has never been fully accepted by
Kala's husband Kerchak (Lance Henriksen), the head of the tribe,
but has female gorilla Terk and elephant Trantor for friends. When
explorer Professor Porter (Nigel Hawthorne) arrives in the jungle
with his daughter Jane (Minnie Driver) and adventurer Clayton
(Brian Blessed), Tarzan discovers his human heritage for the first
time, gradually learning how to speak and spending time at the
visitors' encampment. However, although Porter merely wishes to
study the gorillas, Clayton secretly plans to capture them and take
them back to England, and tries to trick Tarzan into leading him to
the tribe.

Most macroeconomists agree that we live in the age of
microfoundations. The recent worldwide financial crisis may have
emboldened critics of this microfoundational orthodoxy, but it
remains the dominant view that macroeconomic models must go beyond
supply and demand functions to the level of individual
decision-making, taking into account the general dynamic
environment where agents live. Microfoundations Reconsidered seeks
to reassess how the relationship of micro and macroeconomics
evolved over time. The highly regarded contributors to the book
argue that the standard narrative of microfoundations is likely to
be unreliable. They therefore re-examine the history of the
relationship of microeconomics and macroeconomics, starting from
their emergence as self-consciously distinct fields within
economics in the early 1930s. They seek to go beyond the
conventional history that is often told and written by practicing
economists. From different perspectives they challenge the
association of microfoundations with Robert Lucas and rational
expectations and offer both a more complete and a deeper reading of
the relationship between micro and macroeconomics. Microfoundations
Reconsidered is a valuable addition to the macroeconomic research
literature. It is ideally suited to students, scholars,
researchers, and practitioners with an interest in macro and
microeconomics and the history of economics. Contributors: M. De
Vroey, P. Garcia Duarte, D.W. Hands, K.D. Hoover, R. Leonard, G.T.

This book delves into the complex relationship between religious
imaginaries and the perception of space among followers of
Candomblé and Pentecostal churches in Belo Horizonte, Brazil's
third-largest urban agglomeration. It adopts a dual perspective,
examining the broader political, economic, and social dimensions of
these religious communities' urbanisation and spatial distribution
and their members' individual beliefs and behaviours. Through this
approach, the book aims to provide a nuanced and insider's view of
these religious positions, challenging our preconceived notions of
urban spaces and contributing to the larger discussion of
decolonial urban theory and spatialised post-secular thought. This
transdisciplinary book will appeal to a broad range of researchers,
particularly those interested in urban and religious studies. Its
strong spatial perspective makes it attractive to architects and
urban designers. It will be of interest to those in human
geography, urban planning, design, architecture, political science,
religious studies, and culture studies.

This collection brings together a group of international legal
historians to further scholarship in different areas of comparative
and regional legal history. Authors are drawn from Europe, Asia,
and the Americas to produce new insights into the relationship
between law and society across time and space. The book is divided
into three parts: legal history and legal culture across borders,
constitutional experiences in global perspective, and the history
of judicial experiences. The three themes, and the chapters
corresponding to each, provide a balance between public law and
private law topics, and reflect a variety of methodologies, both
empirical and theoretical. The volume highlights the gains that may
be made by comparing the development of law in different countries
and different time periods. The book will be of interest to an
international readership in Legal History, Comparative Law, Law and
Society, and History.

do-it-yourself activities.
This book focuses on the #MeToo movement in China, critically
examining how three competing ideologies have worked in co-opting
#MeToo activism: China's official communism, Western neoliberalism,
and an emerging Chinese cyber feminism. In 2018, China's #MeToo
cyber activism initially maintained its momentum despite strict
censorship, presenting women's voices against gendered violence and
revealing scripts of power in different sectors of society.
Eventually though it lost impetus with sloganization and
stigmatization under a trio of forces of pressures: corporate
corruption, over-politicization by Western media, and continued
state censorship. The book documents the social events and gendered
norms in higher education, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs),
business, and religious circles that preceded and followed
high-profile cases of alleged sexual abuses in mainland China,
engaging with sociological scholarship relating to demoralization
and power, media studies, and gender studies. Through these
entwined theories the author seeks to give both scholars and the
general audience in gender studies a window into the ongoing
tension in the power spheres of state, market, and gendered
hierarchy in contemporary Chinese society. This book will be of
interest to students of gender studies, China studies, media
studies, and cultural studies

This book offers a unique historical documentation of the
development of the ambitious religious entrepreneurism by leaders
of the Early Rain church (and later Western China Presbytery
leadership), in an effort to gain social influence in China through
local institution-building and global public image management. It
unravels the social processes of how this Christian community with
a public image of defending religious freedom in China was
undermined by an internal loss of moral authority. Based on
publicly available texts from Chinese social media that aren't
readily available in the West as well as in-depth interviews, it is
framed by existing scholarship in social theories of the public
sphere, charismatic domination in social transition, and the role
of power in organizational behaviour. These churches' stories show
how Christianity, which has long been politically marginalized in
communist China, has not only adapted and challenged the
socio-political status quo, but how it was also ironically shaped
by the political culture. This is an insightful and critical
ethnographic study of one of modern China's most famous house
churches. As such, it will be of great interest to scholars of
Religion in China as well as those working in Religious Studies,
Asian studies, Chinese studies, and Mission Studies more generally.
This introductory textbook describes fundamental groups and their
topological soul mates, the covering spaces. The author provides
several illustrative examples that touch upon different areas of
mathematics, but in keeping with the books introductory aim, they
are all quite elementary. Basic concepts are clearly defined,
proofs are complete, and no results from the exercises are assumed
in the text.

positron physics and the applications of positrons in medicine and
biology, it describes the use of radiopharmaceuticals in molecular
imaging, clinical, and research studies. The text then covers
modern radiation detectors and measuring methods, including those
used in nuclear imaging, as well as numerous imaging methodologies
and models, such as two- and three-dimensional image reconstruction
algorithms, data processing sequences, new nuclear oncology
techniques, and physiological models of the central nervous system.
It also introduces biological systems theory, nuclear medicine
methods as systems theory procedures, and aspects of kinetic
modeling. The final chapter explores dosimetry and the biological
effects of ionizing radiation. With many new developments occurring
in nuclear medicine, it is important to understand how advanced
approaches are being used in emerging applications. Offering
invaluable insight into this growth, Nuclear Medicine Physics

This book looks at the development of thinking about security in
Brazil between 1930 and 2010. In order to do so, it develops a new
framework for thinking about intellectual history in Brazil and
applies it to the development of knowledge on security in that
country. Building on the Gramscian literature on 'late
modernization' and 'conservative revolution' and drawing on the
idea of 'Emotional Theory of Action' proposed by Brazilian
sociologist Jesse Souza, this book sets out to establish an
innovative framework with which to analyse the development of
'thinking about security' in Brazil in three specific historic
contexts. This theoretical framework is then used to argue that one
specific discourse of Brazilian identity has been the main source
of knowledge production in that country since the 1930s. In doing
this, the book offers thought-provoking arguments about the role of
intellectuals in Brazil and reassesses the exclusionary ideas
embedded in the politics of identity and security. This book not
only introduces a novel framework to analyse intellectual
production outside the core, it also sheds light on how security
has been historically thought of outside the core and will be of
interest to students and scholars of International Relations,
Critical Security Studies and Latin American Studies.
