Communication is often described as the glue that binds an
organisation, enabling interaction with its customers, agents and
the broader public. Communication flourishes in organisations and
is central to their activities and functions: as marketing
communication, public relations, management communication,
corporate communication, etc.; in determining and implementing
strategy, operations and processes; in all interaction -
interpersonal, mediated, digital and social; as the foundation of
corporate culture. Integrated Organisational Communication 2nd
Edition covers these aspects and addresses the growing need among
students and practitioners for a book that takes a broad look at
organisations' communication, and then delves into the detail. This
book adopts a multidisciplinary approach to organisational
communication, and while it takes cognisance of individual academic
and professional disciplines, it avoids alignment with any one of
these.
This book, first published in 1982, is a systematic and detached
analysis of the 60,000 British conscientious objectors in the
Second World War, forming an examination of the relationship
between the individual and the State in time of war. It sets out to
show how the British Government dealt with the challenge that
conscientious objectors posed and how far it was able to correct
the abuses and injustices that occurred in the First World War. It
traces the background of pacifism between the Wars and the
introduction of conscription, and gives a detailed account of the
functioning of the Conscientious Objectors' Tribunals and an
assessment of their work. It goes on to examine the reactions and
attitudes of Tribunal members, employers and the rest of the
population, and how these were affected by the Government lead. It
recounts the experience of objectors in civilian life and private
and public employment, and how they fared in the armed forces and
prisons. It also assesses the contributions made by the voluntary
organisations who helped conscientious objectors in the war.
