First published in 1987. Yu. F. Samarin (1819-1876) was one of the
original SIavophiIs. He was the most important Slavophil statesman,
making a very significant contribution to the formulation, drafting
and implementation of the Emancipation Edict of 1861. He also
served creatively in the whole range of Zemstvo council work at
both the provincial and municipal levels, and made a substantial
impact on policy as a passionate exponent of Russian interests in
Poland and the Baltic provinces. In this study Samarin's
development and performance as a political thinker is examined from
his early days as a master's student at the University of Moscow to
the completion of his work on the peasant land reform in 1864. This
book establishes that Samarin was a competent political theorist,
who is best characterized as an "enlightened conservative". This
title will be of great interest to students of history, politics
and philosophy.

It's the near future, and mankind has expanded its presence in
space. Maintaining law and order among this network of space
stations, satellites and moon outposts is the responsibility of the
International Space Police Force, known colloquially as the Star
Cops. Their leader is Commander Nathan Spring. It's been months
since the last attack by Mother Earth, the activist group opposed
to mankind's expansion into space. It's believed that the group is
finished. But instead, Mother Earth is about to renew its campaign.
This time with even more ferocity and violence. 2.1: Dead and
Buried by Guy Adams. At Lunar Interments, the moon's graveyard for
the wealthy, the caretaker has noticed something odd in the burial
records. Odd enough for him to call in the Star Cops. Devis isn't
happy at being assigned to what he thinks is a mundane case. Not
when Nathan and Kenzy are off to investigate a burglary at the home
of billionaire businessman Ben Alexander. A break-in where the
burglar has finished up dead. But in the lunar resting place of the
dead, Devis will find himself racing against the clock to save his
life and hundreds of others. 2.2: The Killing Jar by John Dorney.
The Charlie Chaplin is a second-hand space station operated as a
space-tourism hub by entrepreneur Martin Thane. When Nathan
receives reports that serious accidents and even a death have been
caused by Thane flouting safety laws, he decides to investigate. An
accident investigation soon becomes a murder enquiry. And as the
Star Cops hunt for the killer, the station becomes a death trap
threatening everyone on board. 2.3: Moonshine by Roland Moore. A
friend of Kenzy's on the space station Coral Sea has been dismissed
for possession of alcohol and sent back to Earth. She believes his
claim that he was framed, and when she learns of his subsequent
suicide she and Devis travel to Australia to investigate. A
difficult enquiry is not helped when Kenzy's former fiance, a
Police Superintendent, appears on the scene. On Moonbase, Nathan is
expecting an official visit from a powerful dignitary. So it's not
a good time for there to be a fatal incident that may be the work
of Mother Earth. 2.4: Hostage by Andrew Smith. The Star Cops are
under intense pressure in the face of continuing Mother Earth
attacks. The very existence of the International Space Police Force
is in jeopardy. Kenzy and Priya are responding to a murderous
Mother Earth explosion at a moon outpost when one of the workers,
Mary Ward, takes a hostage and makes demands, accusing others of
trying to kill her. She appears to have snapped under pressure. As
the crisis develops, dangerous secrets are revealed. Secrets that
some will be prepared to kill for. And die for. Star Cops debuted
on BBC2 in 1987, the brainchild of Doctor Who and Blake's 7 writer
Chris Boucher, aimed as a police procedural set in the new frontier
of commercialised space exploration. Several new characters have
been created for these fresh Star Cops adventures, with Priya Basu
played by Eastenders regular Rakhee Thakra. CAST: David Calder
(Nathan Spring / Box), Trevor Cooper (Colin Devis), Linda Newton

It's the near future, and mankind has expanded its presence in
space. Maintaining law and order beyond Earth is the responsibility
of the International Space Police Force, known colloquially as the
Star Cops. Their leader is Commander Nathan Spring. There are no
Star Cops on Mars, and Nathan Spring intends to put that right. He
travels to the red planet hoping to rally the colonists' support
for setting up an ISPF office, but he faces resistance from those
who feel Mars has no need of police. Soon, though, Nathan and his
officers are involved in incidents of theft, violence and murder.
They may get the chance to prove they're needed, if they can get
through their investigations alive. Contains three new stories;
2.4: Bodies of Evidence by Andrew Smith. On the moon, shortly
before Nathan, Kenzy and Devis leave for Mars, disaster strikes
when the shuttle Ganymede crash lands on the lunar surface. The
tragedy becomes something more sinister when Priya finds
dismembered bodies hidden in the shuttle. But attempts to
investigate are obstructed by higher authorities on Earth. Before
Nathan departs for Mars, he instructs Priya and Paul to investigate
the crash, in defiance of his superiors’ orders. If they don’t
find the evidence they need, it could be the end of all their
careers. 2.5: Human Kind by Helen Goldwyn. A scared medic, on the
run from her colony, seeks the help of the Star Cops. She offers
information about a crime, but she demands legal immunity, and
guarantees for her safety before she’ll talk. A visitor from
Earth seems particularly determined to stop the Star Cops gaining a
foothold on Mars and calls a meeting of colony leaders in an
attempt to end their efforts once and for all. When one of his
officers is kidnapped, Nathan begins to wonder who he can trust on
this planet. 2.6: The Highest Ground by Andrew Smith. The
conspiracy is revealed, and its leader is desperate to silence the
Star Cops. An armed squad closes in on Nathan, his officers and
their Martian allies, leading to a siege in the shadow of Olympus
Mons, the highest mountain in the solar system. And a violent
confrontation on its slopes. It’s time for some to decide where
their loyalties truly lie before it’s too late. CAST: David
Calder (Nathan Spring / Box), Trevor Cooper (Colin Devis), Linda
Newton (Pal Kenzy). More cast details to follow. PLEASE NOTE: Star
Cops features some mild swearing and content which may not be
suitable for younger listeners.

desert with a prisoner whose friends will soon arrive to attempt a
violent rescue. Help arrives in the form of a reclusive colonist.

off. Meanwhile, Devis has his own troubles. An attempt to come to
his friends' rescue goes wrong, and he finds himself at the mercy
of colonists who hold his life in their hands. Matters will come to

Mariner Valley canyon. 2.3 Whatever Happened to Gary Rice? by Guy
Adams. After the Star Cops receive a cryptic message about a man
who may once have worked at a colony in the Argyre Basin, they make

that thrives by growing an organic food source, which it sells to
other colonies. But no-one seems to remember the man the Star Cops
are looking for. Nathan visits a neighbouring scientific research

future, and mankind has expanded its presence in space. Maintaining
law and order among this network of space stations, satellites and
moon outposts is the responsibility of the International Space
Police Force, known colloquially as the Star Cops. Their leader is
Commander Nathan Spring. While dealing with crimes including drug
smuggling and murder, the Star Cops find themselves facing a new
and sustained threat. The activist group Mother Earth,
ideologically opposed to humanity's presence in space, has been
quiet for some time. But no longer. The group returns with a
vengeance, prepared it seems to go to any lengths to achieve its
aims. 1.1 One of Our Cops is Missing by Andrew Smith. As
construction of the Vasco da Gama, the largest space station ever
put into orbit, nears completion, Nathan is visited by an old

officer. Meanwhile, Inspector Priya Basu is investigating a
near-fatal spacewalk accident on the space station Rakesh Sharma
that may be no accident at all.1.2 Tranquillity and Other Illusions
by Ian Potter. A murder at the historic scene of the first Apollo
moon landing offers few clues for the Star Cops. Why would anyone
want to kill Philip Hughes, a property entrepreneur? And what has
become of the mysterious woman who was with him at the time? The
investigation leads to a moon outpost, where anyone may be the
killer. 1.3 Lockdown by Christopher Hatherall. Tech Tower is a
state of the art, high - security, high-technology building located
in Paris. It seems the ideal venue for an international conference
on how to counter the growing threat from the Mother Earth group.
Nathan and Priya attend as representatives of space policing. Soon,
they and everyone else in the building find themselves in danger as
a disruptive attack by Mother Earth coincides with a plot by
criminals to carry out a high stakes robbery. 1.4 The Thousand Ton
Bomb by Guy Adams. A failed bombing of Moonbase provides the Star
Cops with an opportunity to strike back at Mother Earth. Paul
Bailey is called on to use his undercover skills once more. But
Mother Earth is about to escalate its campaign of violence with a
spectacular attack. And the Star Cops are among those in the firing
line. The series hero Nathan Spring is played by David Calder, one
of Britain's most regarded stage and screen actors. He is joined by

Deindustrialising communities have called upon street theatre
companies to re-animate public space and commemorate industrial
heritage. How have these companies converted derelict factories
into spaces of theatrical production? How do they connect their
work to the industrial work that once occurred there? How do those
connections manifest in theatrical events, and how do such events
give shape and meaning to ongoing redevelopment projects? This book
develops an understanding of the relationship between theatre and
redevelopment that goes beyond accusations of gentrification or
celebrations of radical resistance. Ultimately, Calder argues that
deindustrialisation and redevelopment depend on theatrical events
and performative acts to make ongoing change intelligible and
navigable. Working memories brings together some of current theatre
scholarship's fundamental concerns while demonstrating the
significance of those concerns to an interdisciplinary readership.
