The post-colonial world has seen a major re-evaluation of the
insititutions and ideologies of colonialism. Post-colonial theory
has enriched our understanding of the history and literature of
colonial periods. With reference to this trend, this collection
examines the artistic production of both imperial nations and their
colonies and aims to show how it was affected by colonial contact.
Drawing together an international group of scholars from a variety
of disciplinary and cultural backgrounds, it presents case studies
of objects from India, Pakistan, New Zealand, China and Africa
which were collected by or exhibited in the institutions of the
British Empire. Other chapters address issues of racial identity
across cultural barriers and the hybrid styles which can emerge
when cultures meet. The contributors also consider how we, in the
post-colonial era, should interpret the cultural production of the
colonial world and how through displaying these objects,
contemporary museum practice can address the artistic inheritance
of colonialism.

Successor to the highly acclaimed "Encyclopedia of Unbelief"
(1985), edited by the late Gordon Stein, the "New Encyclopedia of
Unbelief" is a comprehensive reference work on the history,
beliefs, and thinking of America's fastest growing minority: those
who live without religion. All-new articles by the field's foremost
scholars describe and explain every aspect of atheism, agnosticism,
secular humanism, secularism, and religious scepticism. The topics
include morality without religion, unbelief in the historicity of
Jesus, critiques of intelligent design theory, unbelief and sexual
values, and summaries of the state of unbelief around the world.
Over 130 respected scholars and activists world-wide served on the
editorial advisory board and over 100 authoritative contributors
have written in excess of 500 entries.;In addition to covering
developments since the publication of the original edition, the
"New Encyclopedia of Unbelief" includes a larger number of
biographical entries and much-expanded coverage of the linkages
between unbelief and social reform movements of the 19th and 20th
centuries, including the labour movement, woman suffrage,
anarchism, sex radicalism, and second-wave feminism. The
distinguished contributors are philosophers, scientists, scholars,
and Nobel Prize laureates. With a foreword by evolutionary
biologist and best-selling author Richard Dawkins, this
unparalleled reference work provides comprehensive knowledge about
unbelief in its many varieties and manifestations.
This book offers a new account of modern European
constitutionalism. It uses the Irish constitutional order to
demonstrate that, right across the European Union, the national
constitution can no longer be understood on its own, in isolation
from the EU legal order or from the European Convention on Human
Rights. The constitution is instead triangular, with these three
legal orders forming the points of a triangle, and the relationship
and interactions between them forming the triangle's sides. It
takes as its starting point the theory of constitutional pluralism,
which suggests that overlapping constitutional orders are not
necessarily arranged 'on top of' each other, but that they may be
arranged heterarchically or flatly, without a hierarchy of superior
and subordinate constitutions. However, it departs from
conventional accounts of this theory by emphasising that we must
still pay close attention to jurisdictional specificity in order to
understand the norms that regulate pluralist constitutions. It
shows, through application of the theory to case studies, that any
attempt to extract universal principles from the jurisdictionally
contingent interactions between specific legal orders is fraught
with difficulty. The book is an important contribution to
constitutional theory in general, and constitutional pluralism in
particular, and will be of great interest to scholars in the field.
One of the principal benefits of electronic mail is its potential
for communication, but its effectiveness depends on clarity and
accuracy in messages. In this book, the authors will show you some
practical rules to correctly write and send your texts.
