Jessica Sula and Lucien Laviscount star in this British drama
written and directed by Rebecca Johnson. When impressionable
15-year-old Layla (Sula) is sucked in to the dark world of London
gangs after she falls for rapper and gang leader Troy (Laviscount),
she quickly becomes infatuated with him and his lifestyle only to
be heartlessly used and cast aside. Determined to prove her love to
Troy, Layla agrees to lure a boy from their school, who everyone
knows is in love with Layla, to Troy's gang to be killed.
Challenging the legality of UK nuclear policy as a further
generation of nuclear-armed submarines is developed, Trident and
International Law asks who is really accountable for Coulport and
Faslane. The UK government in Westminster controls nuclear policy
decisions even though Britain's nuclear submarines and warheads are
all based in Scotland, at Faslane and Coulport. The Scottish
Government therefore has responsibilities under domestic and
international law relating to the deployment of nuclear weapons in
Scotland. Public concern about nuclear deployments, and
particularly the security and proliferation implications of
modernising Trident, led the Acronym Institute for Disarmament
Diplomacy, the Edinburgh Peace and Justice Centre and Trident
Ploughshares to organise an international conference on 'Trident
and International Law: Scotland's Obligations' in Edinburgh in
2009. This book presents the key papers and documents, with
additional arguments from renowned legal scholars. The findings
should be of interest to lawyers, policymakers and citizens with
interest or responsibilities in legal and nuclear issues, public
safety and human security. Whilst focusing on Scotland, this book
raises serious questions for nuclear weapon deployments worldwide.
This book uses the framework of care ethics to articulate a novel
theory of our epistemic obligations to one another. It presents an
original way to understand our epistemic vulnerabilities, our
obligations in education, and our care-duties toward others with
whom we stand in epistemically vulnerable relationships.
Disagreement is, for better or worse, pervasive in our society. Not
only do we form beliefs that differ from those around us, but
increasingly we have platforms and opportunities to voice those
disagreements and make them public. In light of the public nature
of many of our most important disagreements, a key question
emerges: How does public disagreement affect what we know? This
volume collects original essays from a number of prominent
scholars-including Catherine Elgin, Sanford Goldberg, Jennifer
Lackey, Michael Patrick Lynch, and Duncan Pritchard, among
others-to address this question in its diverse forms. The book is
organized by thematic sections, in which individual chapters
address the epistemic, ethical, and political dimensions of
dissent. The individual contributions address important issues such
as the value of disagreement, the nature of conversational
disagreement, when dissent is epistemically rational, when one is
obligated to voice disagreement or to object, the relation of
silence and resistance to dissent, and when political dissent is
justified. Voicing Dissent offers a new approach to the study of
disagreement that will appeal to social epistemologists and
ethicists interested in this growing area of epistemology.

The personal papers of former members of Congress, which constitute
at least half of the documentation of the legislative branch of
government, are held in over 500 different institutions. An
American Political Archives Reader performs the vital task of
making these collections more accessible by presenting the best and
most recent scholarship on congressional collections. The articles
contained in this volume guide archivists through the challenges of
dealing with these voluminous, complex collections. For
institutions developing their political documentary resources and
working toward greater accessibility of political archives, this
book provides much needed information and is a welcome handbook on
the appraisal and preservation of political collections.
