Grain and Chaff from an English Manor Capturing the essence of rural England in a lyrical tale of country life and societal shifts during the early 20th century【電子書籍】[ Arthur Herbert Savory ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Grain and Chaff from an English Manor," Arthur Herbert Savory presents a rich tapestry of rural life in England, drawing upon his extensive experiences as a landowner and farmer. Through a series of evocative essays, Savory captures the rhythms of agrarian existence, interweaving personal anecdotes with keen observations on nature and society. His prose exudes a pastoral elegance, reminiscent of the English literary tradition, while also functioning as a critique of modernity's encroachment on traditional farming practices. Readers are offered a glimpse into the juxtaposition of sustained agricultural heritage with the pressures of industrialization, reflected through Savory'??s adept storytelling and keen eye for detail. Savory, who was deeply rooted in the traditions of English landownership, found inspiration in the serene yet challenging life of the countryside. His background as a farmer equipped him with a profound understanding of the land and its people, enabling him to observe the subtle impacts of societal change with clarity and authenticity. Furthermore, his commitment to fostering a sustainable relationship with the earth permeates his writing, establishing him as a voice of his time. I wholeheartedly recommend "Grain and Chaff from an English Manor" to those interested in the intersections of literature, agriculture, and history. It offers not only a window into the English countryside but also a reflective exploration of the values that underpin our connection to the land. Savory's work is a compelling read for scholars and general readers alike, resonating with timeless themes that remain relevant today.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

Reinventing Regional Security Institutions in Asia and Africa Power shifts, ideas, and institutional change【電子書籍】[ Kei Koga ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Regional security institutions play a significant role in shaping the behavior of existing and rising regional powers by nurturing security norms and rules, monitoring state activities, and sometimes imposing sanctions, thereby formulating the configuration of regional security dynamics. Yet, their security roles and influence do not remain constant. Their raison d’etre, objectives, and functions experience sporadic changes, and some institutions upgrade military functions for peacekeeping operations, while others limit their functions to political and security dialogues. The question is: why and how do these variances in institutional change emerge?</p> <p>This book explores the mechanisms of institutional change, focusing on regional security institutions led by non-great powers. It constructs a theoretical model for institutional change that provides a new understanding of their changing roles in regional security, which has yet to be fully explored in the International Relations field. In so doing, the book illuminates why, when, and how each organization restructures its role, function, and influence. Using case studies of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and the Organization of African Unity (OAU)/ African Union (AU), it also sheds light on similarities and differences in institutional change between regional security institutions.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 10,093円

The Evolving Boundaries of Defence An Assessment of Recent Shifts in Defence Activities【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This volume analyses several recent evolutions in global defence activities. Since the 1990s the industry has gradually repositioned because of geostrategic transformations, spatial reorganisation, budgetary trends, and evolutions within the production of defence per se, which have disrupted its economic and social fabric. These changes widen the scope of industrial activities and modify the organization of relations between armed forces, firms and local economies as well as society. They deeply affect the footprints of defence in several dimensions and its impacts on local communities, public/private boundaries and evolving requirements of armed forces. This volume analyses key features of recent and ongoing transformations of defence issues, from four perspectives. The first section considers those factors which are redefining the boundaries of defence, with a focus on defence economics; part two focuses on the spatial footprint of defence and its transformations and analyses the insertion of defence activities within urban landscapes; the third part analyses how armed forces manage their human resources; and the final section considers the international landscape of defence.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 23,444円

Conceptual Shifts and Contextualized Practices in Education for Glocal Interaction Issues and Implications【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book employs the realm of English Language Teaching (ELT) as a discursive point of departure to explore how individuals, groups, entities and institutions apprehend, embrace, deal with, manipulate, problematize and resist glocal flows of people, ideas, information, goods, and technology. It apprehends and attends to tensions arising from the fluidly local-global construction and negotiation of borders of identity and interaction within a diverse array of contexts and English education therein. These tensions, whether conceptual or pedagogical, may arise in and through governmental and institutional policymaking, teacher training, or curriculum and materials development, and in the learning experience both within and beyond the classroom, as teachers and students engage with course content and each other.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 12,154円

Russian Naval Activity in the Mediterranean: Responsive Shifts in French, Italian, and Spanish Perspectives and Policies - Putin and Challenges to NATO, Multilateral Security Cooperation Initiatives【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This late 2018 report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. NATO's southern flank has been exposed to a wide range of threats and challenges from Middle Eastern and North African instability, including terrorism, illegal trafficking, and mass migration. Against this backdrop, since 2008, Russia has increased its Mediterranean naval activity to levels not observed since the Cold War. This study investigates the extent to which the perceptions and policies of France, Italy, and Spain have shifted in response to Russia's expanded Mediterranean presence. Although its naval presence was once considered a low-priority threat, Russia's recent behavior has led to some significant changes in the perceptions and security policies of these Allies. Greater attention to this Mediterranean naval challenge has been consistent with the intensification of Russian military aggression, and these Allies increasingly share Alliance concerns about Russia's conventional military threat. However, immediate nontraditional security issues remain a more urgent priority, a circumstance that limits the extent to which these Allies are willing to regard Russia's naval presence as a threat. While both unilateral and multilateral initiatives have been steps toward improving security and stability in the Mediterranean, these Allies continue to seek the right set of measures needed to address this dynamic environment.</p> <p>This compilation includes a reproduction of the 2019 Worldwide Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community.</p> <p>I. Introduction * A. Major Research Question * B. Significance of the Research Question * C. Literature Review * D. Potential Explanations and Hypotheses * E. Research Design * F. Study Overview * II.

Conclusion * VI. Conclusion</p> <p>Given the January 2017 Russian-Syrian agreement to grant Russia a 49-year lease for access to the Tartus Naval Base and Russia's evident intention to maintain a permanent naval presence in the eastern Mediterranean, what are the perceptions and policies of France, Italy, and Spain on this increased presence? What policy conclusions have they drawn? This study identifies changes in officially articulated perceptions and policies in these countries since 2008 and strives to distinguish developments attributable not only to Russia, but also to other factors in the Mediterranean region, including terrorism, failed states, religious fanaticism, illegal trafficking, organized crime, and migrant and refugee flows. Additionally, this study analyzes the extent to which Mediterranean security cooperation initiatives assist France, Italy, and Spain in the management of security priorities.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 742円

Culture, Identity and Information Technology in the 21st Century: Implications for U.S. National Security, the Future of English in Language Usage, Demographic Shifts【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This monograph traces global trends in the use of language and media in order to identify the national security implications of cultural change and identity formation. The analysis suggests that in the next several decades, the world is likely to be more ideologically fragmented than at any time during the 20th century. In such a context, not only will the ability of the United States to push back against other rising "centers of influence" be comparatively reduced; other rising powers themselves are unlikely to be able to wield the same forms of influence that shaped international politics in the 20th century. Instead, a sociological perspective on these global trends is offered, suggesting that the emergent norms of future generations will challenge existing legal frameworks and bureaucratic methods that states have until now relied on to manage and provide secrecy and security. At the same time, the influx of digital "immigrants" from the developing world to the information domain will indelibly shape the information society as we know it today. For the first time, "cultural engagement" will no longer be an experience that exclusively happens in "far-off" lands, as the global expansion of the information society enables the beliefs and values of foreign societies to impact our day-to-day lives more frequently and more directly.</p> <p>Ultimately, the monograph makes a compelling case for policymakers to attend to the strategic implications of cultural change and to reach beyond state-centric approaches in security studies in order to do so. The Strategic Studies Institute is pleased to offer this monograph as a contribution that enriches our understanding of the future security environment and furthers policy debate on U.S. national security and defense strategy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 634円

Security Order and Strategic Alignment in Europe and the Asia-Pacific Times of Global Power Shifts【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Elena Atanassova-Cornelis, Yoichiro Sato, Tom Sauer, and their contributors examine the implications of the shifts in power for the regional security order, as the longterm relative decline of the US standing in the global hierarchy of power is more pronounced than ever due to the challenges it faces from the rising China in Asia and the reviving Russia in Europe.</p> <p>The world is in disarray, and the balance of power is shifting, which results in enhanced tensions and wars, including on the territory of Europe. The complexity of the international order that prevails today possibly misleads us toward viewing everything in terms of a bipolar competition, as predicted by systemic-level realism. While membership of the multilateral NATO Alliance expands in Europe in light of the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, China’s assertive behavior in Asia has produced numerous strategic alignments that are short of a formal alliance involving Asian states, the US, and European countries. ‘Hedging’ strategies are commonly found in Asian states’ approaches to security, working against the bifurcation of powers. Contrarily, European entries into alignments in the ‘Indo-Pacific’ have demonstrated the inseparability of security in Asia from security in Europe through the shared thread of ‘engaging the US’. Whether China defines its challenge against the US in regional or global terms also has differing implications for the evolution of the international system. This book, with contributions by Asian, European, and North American experts, provides an overview of the two regions’ differing alignment paths in comparative and inter-regional perspectives.</p> <p>The book is a valuable resource for academics, researchers, practitioners, and policy analysts interested in European and Asia-Pacific security, as well as international and regional security issues.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,279円

Capital Flows, Credit Markets and Growth in South Africa The Role of Global Economic Growth, Policy Shifts and Uncertainties【電子書籍】[ Nombulelo Gumata ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines the dynamics in capital flows, credit markets and growth in South Africa. The authors explore the role of global economic growth, policy shifts and various economic policy uncertainties. Central banks in advanced economies are engaged in unconventional monetary policy tools such as balance sheet policies, negative interest rates and extended forward guidance to assist them to meet their price, financial and macro-economic stability objectives. This book determines whether BRICS GDP growth is a source of shocks or an amplifier of global growth shocks. The authors find that global economic growth and policy uncertainty reinforce each other via capital flows, credit conditions and business confidence on the domestic economy. Furthermore, they demonstrate that there is momentum in the changes in the spread between the repo rate and federal funds rate. In addition, global real policy rates impact domestic GDP growth and labor market conditions. The authors examine the economic costs of capital flow surges, sudden stops and elevated portfolio volatility shocks and their interaction with GDP growth and credit. They show that equity and debt inflows matter in the attainment of the price stability mandate. Moreover, business confidence transmits sovereign credit ratings upgrades and downgrades shocks to the real economy via GDP growth, the cost of government debt and borrowing to impact credit growth. High GDP growth increases the likelihood of sovereign credit ratings upgrades, hence policymakers should implement pro-growth policies. Inflation regimes impact the transmission of positive nominal demand shocks to the price level. Low and stable inflation (inflation below 4.5 per cent) reduces the pass-through of positive nominal demand shocks to inflation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,507円

Visual Counterculture in Japan Political Shifts and the Dynamics of Resistance【電子書籍】[ Marco Bohr ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book presents innovative analysis of emergent visual trends in Japan from the late 1960s to the present day. Adopting a thematic approach, this interdisciplinary text deconstructs the role that visual practices played in shaping a variety of countercultural discourses related to politics, gender, identity, sexuality, censorship, ethics and disasters. The book makes the case that visual practices do not merely function as a way to record counterculture, but that such practices are in themselves contributing to dynamics of resistance.</p> <p>By considering a wide range of artists, photographers, film makers and practitioners, the book focuses on the way that visual culture transgresses, subverts or in the very least questions assumed socio-cultural boundaries in Japan. In doing so, the book foregrounds the crucial role that images play in our society today. Images are no just depictions of political shifts as and when they do occur, but they form part of this very shift in their own right. The book also highlights the interconnectedness between various visual practices and how they fit into wider geopolitical considerations on a global scale.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 13,701円
