The Social Construction of Expertise
The British created a system wherein the social identity of civil servants clearly influenced their position on official matters. This privileged class set the tone for major policy decisions affecting all members of society. Savage addresses this social construction of power by analyzing the social origins and career patterns of higher-level civil servants as a backdrop for investigating the way four different social service ministries formulated policies between the two World Wars: the Board of Education, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Labour, and the Ministry of Health.
Diary of Virginia Woolf: Volume 2
With an introduction by Adam Phillips Monday 17 July 1922. Back from Garsington, & too unsettled to write - I meant to say read; but then this does not count as writing. It is to me like scratching; or, if it goes well, like having a bath - which of course, I did not get at Garsington. 1920. The war is over, and Virginia Woolf is meeting friends old and new, from Maynard Keynes to Vita Sackville-West. She is reading and reviewing voraciously, and the Hogarth Press is thriving. Jacob's Room was published in 1922, and Woolf began work on what was to become Mrs Dalloway. This was a time of creative highs and lows, as well as a growing confidence as Woolf developed her distinctive literary voice.
For Peace in Europe
Le processus d'union européenne voit aujourd'hui un point d'arrêt sur le plan politique et institutionnel, malgré les étapes décisives réalisées après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il reste en effet à affronter des thèmes et des problèmes qui, pendant l'entre-deux-guerres, animèrent le débat entre les pionniers de l'européanisme. Si, à l'époque, leurs propositions restèrent sans suite, ayant une issue destructrice pour la paix et l'Europe, cet héritage idéal si précieux a permis une continuité et de germer par la suite. Ce livre a pour but de présenter une série d'idées, d'initiatives, de programmes, qui entre les deux guerres entendirent promouvoir le maintien d'un ord...
Collected Papers James Meade V4
First Published in 2004. This fourth volume of The Collected Papers of James Meade is different in form and content from the previous three volumes. It consists of a single previously unpublished work, the diary of Meade’s life in the Economic Section of the Cabinet Office which he kept for nearly two years. This covers the time where he was appointed to succeed Lionel Robbins as Director of the Section at the end of the Second World War until September 1946. This period encompasses the last few months of the war in Europe and the first year of peace and of a majority Labour government under Prime Minister Clement Attlee.
Argument Europa
Die Zeit zwischen dem Ersten und Zweiten Weltkrieg gilt als Periode des extremen Nationalismus. Doch paradoxerweise bildeten sich zwischen 1919 und 1939 starke internationale Kooperationen aus, die für das 20. Jahrhundert maßgeblich werden sollten. Am Beispiel des Agrarmarkts, eines besonders national ausgerichteten Wirtschaftssektors, zeigt Fritz Georg von Graevenitz, dass Protektionismus als Abbild des wirtschaftlichen Nationalismus und internationale Kooperation in Form von Marktintervention in den krisenhaften 1920er- und 1930er-Jahren zwei Seiten derselben Medaille sein konnten. Im Fokus seiner Analyse stehen nicht staatliche Akteure, die bei der Ausgestaltung einer europäischen Agrarpolitik entscheidend mitwirkten.
