Household Education Exploring Family Education in the 19th Century: Insights on Gender Roles and Social Reform【電子書籍】[ Harriet Martineau ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Household Education," Harriet Martineau presents a pioneering exploration of the intersection between domestic life and education, advocating for a comprehensive system of moral and intellectual instruction within the home. Written in a clear, accessible style, Martineau engages her readers with a blend of practical advice and keen social observation, reflecting the Victorian-era belief in the importance of character development as a foundation for personal and societal progress. The book underscores the role of women as educators and moral guides within the household, situating the domestic sphere as a critical space for shaping future generations. Martineau, a foremost thinker of her time, rose to prominence through her advocacy for social reform and her examinations of contemporary issues ranging from class inequality to women's rights. Her experiences as a sociologist and the challenges she faced as a female writer in the 19th century informed her perspectives on education and its transformative potential. Martineau's academic background and her commitment to improving societal conditions motivated her to address the undercurrents of educational philosophy and domestic responsibility within her work. "Household Education" is recommended for scholars and general readers alike who seek to understand the evolution of educational thought, particularly in the context of domestic roles. Martineau's insights offer a profound commentary on the responsibilities of caregiving and the foundational role of home education, making this work a vital addition to any exploration of gender, education, and social reform.＜/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

How China Escaped Shock Therapy The Market Reform Debate【電子書籍】[ Isabella M. Weber ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞China has become deeply integrated into the world economy. Yet, gradual marketization has facilitated the country’s rise without leading to its wholesale assimilation to global neoliberalism. This book uncovers the fierce contest about economic reforms that shaped China’s path. In the first post-Mao decade, China’s reformers were sharply divided. They agreed that China had to reform its economic system and move toward more marketizationーbut struggled over how to go about it. Should China destroy the core of the socialist system through shock therapy, or should it use the institutions of the planned economy as market creators? With hindsight, the historical record proves the high stakes behind the question: China embarked on an economic expansion commonly described as unprecedented in scope and pace, whereas Russia’s economy collapsed under shock therapy. Based on extensive research, including interviews with key Chinese and international participants and World Bank officials as well as insights gleaned from unpublished documents, the book charts the debate that ultimately enabled China to follow a path to gradual reindustrialization. Beyond shedding light on the crossroads of the 1980s, it reveals the intellectual foundations of state-market relations in reform-era China through a longue dur?e lens. Overall, the book delivers an original perspective on China’s economic model and its continuing contestations from within and from without.＜/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。	7,899円
Vicarious Liability Critique and Reform【電子書籍】[ Professor Anthony Gray ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The scope of vicarious liability has significantly expanded since its original conception. Today employers are being found liable for actions of employees that they did not authorise, and never would have authorised if asked. They are being held liable for an employee's criminal activity. In the related strict liability field of non-delegable duties, they are being held liable for wrongdoing of independent contractors.＜/p＞＜p＞Notions of strict liability have grown increasingly isolated in the law of tort, given the exponential growth in the tort of negligence. They require intellectual justification. Such a justification has proven to be elusive and largely unsatisfactory in relation to vicarious liability and to concepts of non-delegable duty. The law of three jurisdictions studied has now apparently embraced the 'enterprise risk' theory to rationalise the imposition of vicarious liability. This book subjects this theory to strong critique by arguing that it has many weaknesses, which the courts should acknowledge. It suggests that a rationalisation of the liability of an employer for the actions of an employee lies in more traditional legal doctrine which would serve to narrow the circumstances in which an employer is legally liable for a wrong committed by an employee.＜/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。	6,530円
An Essay on the Evils of Popular Ignorance Unveiling the Toll of Ignorance: A Critical Analysis of Social Inequality and Educational Reform in 19th-Century England【電子書籍】[ John Foster ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "An Essay on the Evils of Popular Ignorance," John Foster meticulously dissects the repercussions of widespread ignorance on society, weaving a compelling narrative that grapples with the essence of knowledge and its societal bearings. Written in the early 19th century, Foster employs a rich, rhetorical style characteristic of the Enlightenment, blending carefully reasoned arguments with passionate prose. His exploration into the moral and social dilemmas posed by ignorance reflects a deeply analytical approach, offering readers a comprehensive critique of contemporary socio-political dynamics and advocating for enlightenment through education and critical thought. John Foster, a prominent essayist and critic, was profoundly influenced by the intellectual currents of his time. His own experiences in a rapidly changing world, marked by the burgeoning of industrialization and the reform movements that characterized early 19th-century Britain, compel him to confront the dangers of ignorance. His background in literature and philosophy provided the tools to articulate these issues with both precision and empathy, making his work a significant contribution to educational discourse. Readers interested in the interplay between knowledge and societal well-being will find Foster's essay both enlightening and troubling. This work not only serves as a historical artifact but also resonates with contemporary discussions about misinformation and the importance of education. A must-read for anyone seeking to understand the foundations of societal progress through the lens of knowledge.＜/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
Biotechnology, Patents and Morality A Deliberative and Participatory Paradigm for Reform【電子書籍】[ Maureen O'Sullivan ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book critiques the decision-making process in Article 53(a) of the European Patent Convention. To date, such decisions have been taken at high levels of expertise without much public involvement. The book eschews traditional solutions, such as those found within legislative, judicial and patent office realms and instead develops a radical blueprint for how these decisions can be put to the public. By examining wide-scale models of participatory democracy and deliberation, this book fills a significant gap in the literature. It will be invaluable for patent lawyers, academics, practitioners and intellectual property and patent officials.＜/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。	7,576円
A Tract on Monetary Reform【電子書籍】[ John Maynard Keynes ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞We leave Saving to the private investor, and we encourage him to place his savings mainly in titles to money. We leave the responsibility for setting Production in motion to the business man, who is mainly influenced by the profits which he expects to accrue to himself in terms of money. Those who are not in favour of drastic changes in the existing organisation of society believe that these arrangements, being in accord with human nature, have great advantages. But they cannot work properly if the money, which they assume as a stable measuring-rod, is undependable. Unemployment, the precarious life of the worker, the disappointment of expectation, the sudden loss of savings, the excessive windfalls to individuals, the speculator, the profiteerーall proceed, in large measure, from the instability of the standard of value.＜/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。	292円
Critical Americans Victorian Intellectuals and Transatlantic Liberal Reform【電子書籍】[ Leslie Butler ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In this intellectual history of American liberalism during the second half of the nineteenth century, Leslie Butler examines a group of nationally prominent and internationally oriented writers who sustained an American tradition of self-consciously progressive and cosmopolitan reform. She addresses how these men established a critical perspective on American racism, materialism, and jingoism in the decades between the 1850s and the 1890s while she recaptures their insistence on the ability of ordinary citizens to work toward their limitless potential as intelligent and moral human beings.＜/p＞＜p＞At the core of Butler’s study are the writers George William Curtis, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, James Russell Lowell, and Charles Eliot Norton, a quartet of friends who would together define the humane liberalism of America’s late Victorian middle class. In creative engagement with such British intellectuals as John Stuart Mill, Thomas Carlyle, Matthew Arnold, Leslie Stephen, John Ruskin, James Bryce, and Goldwin Smith, these “critical Americans” articulated political ideals and cultural standards to suit the burgeoning mass democracy the Civil War had created. This transatlantic framework informed their notions of educative citizenship, print-based democratic politics, critically informed cultural dissemination, and a temperate, deliberative foreign policy. Butler argues that a careful reexamination of these strands of late nineteenth-century liberalism can help enrich a revitalized liberal tradition at the outset of the twenty-first century.＜/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。	4,111円

A Protest against Law-Taxes Challenging Legal Taxes: Bentham's Call for Reform【電子書籍】[ Jeremy Bentham ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "A Protest against Law-Taxes," Jeremy Bentham, the preeminent English philosopher and jurist, critiques the legal impositions that burden the populace through excessive taxation. His prose is characterized by clear, analytical reasoning and a passionate advocacy for social reform, reflective of the Enlightenment's emphasis on rationality and individual rights. Bentham meticulously dissects the inefficiencies of the legal tax structures, arguing that they serve to reinforce inequality rather than promote justice, thereby challenging the status quo of his time and laying the groundwork for future legal and economic liberalism. Bentham, often heralded as the father of utilitarianism, was deeply influenced by the social injustices of his era. His advocacy for the rights of the individual and systemic reform stemmed from personal observations of the punitive nature of law and its economic repercussions on society'??s most vulnerable members. His comprehensive approach to legal philosophy and taxation reflects both his intellectual pursuits and his commitment to social utility. This thought-provoking work is essential reading for anyone interested in the intersections of law, taxation, and social justice. Bentham'??s insights remain relevant, urging contemporary readers to reconsider the implications of legal frameworks and their impact on equity. Engage with Bentham's compelling arguments to understand better the foundations of modern legal and economic thought.＜/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。	310円
Brokers of Faith, Brokers of Empire Armenians and the Politics of Reform in the Ottoman Empire【電子書籍】[ Richard E. Antaramian ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The Ottoman Empire enforced imperial rule through its management of diversity. For centuries, non-Muslim religious institutions, such as the Armenian Church, were charged with guaranteeing their flocks' loyalty to the sultan. Rather than being passive subjects, Armenian elites, both the clergy and laity, strategically wove the institutions of the Armenian Church, and thus the Armenian community itself, into the fabric of imperial society. In so doing, Armenian elites became powerful brokers between factions in Ottoman politicsーuntil the politics of nineteenth-century reform changed these relationships.＜/p＞＜p＞In ＜em＞Brokers of Faith, Brokers of Empire＜/em＞, Richard E. Antaramian presents a revisionist account of Ottoman reform, relating the contention within the Armenian community to broader imperial politics. Reform afforded Armenians the opportunity to recast themselves as partners of the state, rather than as brokers among factions. And in the course of pursuing such programs, they transformed the community's role in imperial society. As the Ottoman reform program changed how religious difference could be employed in a Muslim empire, Armenian clergymen found themselves enmeshed in high-stakes political and social contests that would have deadly consequences.＜/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。	3,837円

A Passion for Leadership Lessons on Change and Reform from Fifty Years of Public Service【電子書籍】[ Robert M. Gates ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞From the former secretary of defense and author of the acclaimed #1 best-selling memoir ＜em＞Duty,＜/em＞ a characteristically direct, informed, and urgent assessment of why big institutions are failing us and how smart, committed leadership can effect real improvement regardless of scale.＜/p＞＜p＞Across the realms of civic and private enterprise alike, bureaucracies vitally impact our security, freedoms, and everyday life.

Revolt and Reform in Architecture's Academy Urban Renewal, Race, and the Rise of Design in the Public Interest【電子書籍】[ William Richards ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞＜em＞Revolt and Reform in Architecture’s Academy＜/em＞ uniquely addresses the complicated relationship between architectural education and urban renewal in the 1960s, which paved the way for what is today known as public interest design. Through an examination of curricular reforms at Columbia University’s and Yale University’s schools of architecture in the 1960s, this book translates the "urban crisis" through the experiences of two influential groups of architecture students, as well as their contributions to design’s lexicon.＜/p＞＜p＞The book argues that urban renewal and campus expansion half a century ago recast architectural education at two schools whose host cities, New York and New Haven, were critical sites for political, social, and urban upheaval in America. The urban challenges of that time are the same challenges rapidly growing cities face todayーaccess, equity, housing, and services.＜/p＞＜p＞As architects, architects in training, and architecture students continue to wrestle with questions surrounding how design may serve a broadly defined public interest, this book is a timely assessment of the forces that have shaped the debate.＜/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。	9,995円

Secured Transactions Law Reform Principles, Policies and Practice【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Secured transactions law has been subjected to a close scrutiny over the last two decades. One of the main reasons for this is the importance of availability of credit and the consequent need to reform collateral laws in order to improve access to finance. The ability to give security effectively influences not only the cost of credit but also, in some cases, whether credit will be available at all. This requires rules that are transparent and readily accessible to non-lawyers as well as rules that recognise the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises.＜/p＞＜p＞This book critically engages with the challenges posed by inefficient secured credit laws. It offers a comparative analysis of the reasons and the needs for a secured transactions law reform, as well as discussion of the steps taken in many common law, civil law and mixed law jurisdictions.＜/p＞＜p＞The book, written under the auspices of the Secured Transactions Law Reform Project, informs the debate about reform and advances novel arguments written by world renowned experts that will build upon the existing literature, and as such will be of interest to academics, legal practitioners and the judiciary involved in secured transactions law around the world.＜/p＞＜p＞The text considers reform initiatives that have taken place up to the end of April 2016. It has not been possible to incorporate events since then into the discussion. However, notable developments include the banks decree passed by the Italian Government on 29th June 2016, and the adoption of the Model Law on Secured Transactions by UNCITRAL on 1st July 2016.＜/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。	6,777円

Co-operation, Contestation and Complexity in Peacebuilding Post-Conflict Security Sector Reform【電子書籍】楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Security Sector Reform (SSR) remains a key feature of peacebuilding interventions and is usually undertaken by a state alongside national and international partners. External actors engaged in SSR tend to follow a normative agenda that often has little regard for the context in post-conflict societies. Despite recurrent criticism, SSR practices of international organisations and bilateral donors often remain focused on state institutions, and often do not sufficiently attend to alternative providers of security or existing normative frameworks of security.＜/p＞＜p＞This edited collection explores three aspects that add an important piece to the puzzle of what constitutes effective Security Sector Reform (SSR). First, the variation of norm adoption, norm contestation and norm imposition in post-conflict countries that might explain the mixed results in terms of peacebuilding. Second, the multitude of different security actors within and beyond the state which often leads to multiple patterns of co-operation and contestation within reform programmes. Third, how both the multiplicity of and tension between norms and actors further complicate efforts to build peace or, as complexity theory would posit, influence the complex and non-linear social system that is the conflict-affected environment.＜/p＞＜p＞The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the ＜em＞Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding.＜/em＞＜/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。	9,028円
Town and Country Sermons Reflecting on Faith and Society: Victorian Sermons of Social Reform and Spiritual Insight【電子書籍】[ Charles Kingsley ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞In "Town and Country Sermons," Charles Kingsley masterfully intertwines theology and social commentary, providing a series of compelling discourses aimed at addressing the moral and spiritual dilemmas of both urban and rural life during the Victorian era. Written in a conversational yet didactic style, Kingsley employs vivid imagery and relatable anecdotes to engage his readers, all while urging them toward ethical living and social responsibility. The sermons reflect the broader historical context of industrialization and its impact on society, as Kingsley skillfully navigates themes of justice, community, and the innate dignity of each individual. Charles Kingsley (1819-1875) was a prominent clergyman, social reformer, and novelist, deeply influenced by his experiences as both an Anglican priest and a vocal critic of societal injustices. His firsthand observations of the struggles faced by the working class, combined with his rich literary background, informed his passion for championing moral reform and the importance of faith in everyday life. This blend of personal conviction and scholarly insight makes his sermons not only relevant in his time but also a reflective commentary on ongoing social issues. Readers seeking to explore a rich tapestry of Victorian moral thought and its applicability to contemporary challenges will find "Town and Country Sermons" both enlightening and transformative. This collection not only serves as a historical document but also a call to action, encouraging readers to reflect on their role in fostering compassion and justice in their communities.＜/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
Voices Carry Behind Bars and Backstage during China's Revolution and Reform【電子書籍】[ Ying Ruocheng ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Voices Carry is the moving autobiography of the late Ying Ruocheng, beloved Chinese stage and screen actor, theatre director, translator, and high-ranking politician as vice minister of culture from 1986?1990. One of twentieth-century China's most prominent citizens, Ying was imprisoned during the Cultural Revolution and devised unique strategies for survival, including playing pranks on guards and keeping a clandestine notebook. Ying's memoir opens with his prison years, and then flashes back to his boyhood growing up in a prince's palace as a member of a progressive Manchu Catholic intellectual family. He also details his experiences as a university student during the heady days when the People's Republic was being founded, followed by his subsequent experiences on stage, in film, and in politics.＜/p＞＜p＞A founding member of the Beijing People's Art Theatre, Ying Ruocheng helped open its doors to Sino-American exchange when he brought Arthur Miller to China to stage Death of a Salesman in 1983, playing the role of Willy Loman in his own translation of the play. Simultaneously a "spy" for his own government and a cultural ambassador for countless foreigners and fellow countrymen, Ying lived out his life as a bridge between China and the West, gaining a singular perspective on matters related to culture and politics.＜/p＞＜p＞While suffering from cirrhosis of the liver during the final decade of his life, Ying Ruocheng reflected on his experiences, collaborating with coauthor Claire Conceison to tell his story. Together, they take the reader on an exhilarating journey from Manchu wrestling matches to missionary schools, from behind prison bars to behind the scenes at ground-breaking stage performances, and from public moments of international recognition to private moments of intimacy and despair.＜/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。	6,269円
The Kneipp Cure A Health Reform For Your Body【電子書籍】[ Sebastian Kneipp ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Scarcely ever has a book found its way through Europe and the whole civilized world in so incredibly short a time as the little volume of which this is a translation. Finding help nowhere and lacking both physical and mental strength due to his failing health, the young author was left to spend his time in the royal library. Here one day an old little book attracts his curiosity, he opens it, it treats of water-cures. This moment was to be a turning-point in his life. The contents of the small unsightly volume were to be the rough outline of a plan which, in its completion, has become a blessing for numbers of his fellow-creatures who, laboring under more or less grievous disease, were restored to the full possession of bodily health and mental vigor; for as soon as the author in this early period of his life had experienced the salutary effects of water, it seemed but natural to his noble heart to make as many as possible partakers of the benefit he then enjoyed in the sense of undisturbed health. Since his endeavors in this respect had for their sole objects the glory of God and the good of poor sufferers, since he sought neither honor nor any other earthly reward, he was well armed against the temptation to give up a work which, besides adding considerably to the exertions imposed on him by his sacred office, earned for him much contradiction and ingratitude. "The Kneipp-Cure" is not only a fantastic read, but for many sick people a way into a much brighter and healthier future. This book is illustrated.＜/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。	1,700円
How All Politics Became Reproductive Politics From Welfare Reform to Foreclosure to Trump【電子書籍】[ Laura Briggs ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Today all politics are reproductive politics, argues esteemed feminist critic Laura Briggs. From longer work hours to the election of Donald Trump, our current political crisis is above all about reproduction. Households are where we face our economic realities as social safety nets get cut and wages decline. Briggs brilliantly outlines how politicians’ racist accounts of reproductionーstories of Black “welfare queens” and Latina “breeding machines"ーwere the leading wedge in the government and business disinvestment in families. With decreasing wages, rising McJobs, and no resources for family care, our households have grown ever more precarious over the past forty years in sharply race-and class-stratified ways. This crisis, argues Briggs, fuels all othersーfrom immigration to gay marriage, anti-feminism to the rise of the Tea Party.＜/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。	3,219円
Family Law Reform in Postwar Japan Succession and Adoption【電子書籍】[ Joy Larsen Paulson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞How does a nation, defeated in war, respond to externally imposed reforms that set that nations family system upside down, completely eliminating the familys modus operandi At least that is what the elimination of family kinship and single inheritance in reforms by the Supreme Command for the Allied Powers (SCAP) in the 1948 Civil Code was meant to do. How did the Japanese respond to these reforms in Family Law that many believed would result in the destruction of the family? This study looks at succession and adoption in the years following the reform to understand how the Japanese were able to circumvent the Code and shape the family to meet their evolving needs.＜/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。	1,144円

Parliament: The Biography (Volume II - Reform)【電子書籍】[ Chris Bryant ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Over the last two hundred years Parliament has witnessed and effected dramatic and often turbulent change. Political parties rose ? and fell. The old aristocratic order passed away. The vote was won for the working classes and, eventually, for women. The world was torn apart by two extraordinarily bloody wars. And individual politicians were cheered for their altruism or their bravery and jeered for their sexual or financial misdemeanours.＜br /＞ This second volume of Chris Bryant’s majestic ＜em＞Parliament: The Biography＜/em＞ has a cast of characters that includes some of British history’s most famous names: the Duke of Wellington, Sir Robert Peel, Gladstone, Disraeli, Lloyd George, Churchill and Thatcher. Its recurring theme is reform and innovation, but it also lays bare obsessive respect for the past and a dedication to evolution rather than revolution, which has left us with a fudged constitution still perilously dependent on custom, convention and gentlemen’s agreements.＜br /＞ This is riveting, flawlessly researched and accessible popular history for anyone with an interest in why modern Britain is the nation it is 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。	2,338円
Failure Family Law Reform Australia【電子書籍】[ John Stapleton ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞The year 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the passing of the Family Law Act, the single most intrusive and destructive piece of legislation to ever pass the Australian parliament.＜/p＞＜p＞In that time the Family Court has been the subject of dozens of government inquiries and attempts at reform on its road to becoming a cash cow for lawyers and the single most hated jurisdiction in the country.＜/p＞＜p＞Far from the caring, helpful court promoting joint custody and cooperation after separation, as its founders envisaged, the Family Court rapidly became a law unto itself, imposing sole custody on separating families despite all the documented harm of this style of custody order, while denying non-custodial parents contact with their children on the flimsiest of excuses.＜/p＞＜p＞Overly legalistic, enormously bureaucratic, secretive, and unaccountable, defying public norms of decency and probity, the ideologically driven Family Court and its so-called evil sister the Child Support Agency have remained remarkably resistant to reform and indifferent to the public odium they attract.＜/p＞＜p＞Successive governments from both left and right have failed to listen to their constituents and respond to their concerns. They have resorted to vested inquiries in the hands of the mandarins and publicly funded elites whose feigned attempts to listen to the views of ordinary people are a stain on the Australian Public Service.＜/p＞＜p＞In terms of human suffering, the Australian public has already paid dearly for the failure to fix outdated, badly administered and inappropriate institutions dealing with family breakdown. The country's failure to reform family law and child support is ultimately a failure of democracy itself.＜/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。	2,739円

New International Financial System, The: Analyzing The Cumulative Impact Of Regulatory Reform【電子書籍】[ Douglas D Evanoff ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞Ever since the Great Recession, the global financial regulatory system has undergone significant changes. But have these changes been sufficient? Have they created a new problem of over-regulation? Is the system currently in a better position than in the pre-Recession years, or have we not adequately addressed the basic causes of the financial crisis and resulting Great Recession?These were the questions and issues addressed in the seventeenth annual international banking conference held at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in November 2014. In collaboration with the Bank of England, the theme of the conference was to examine the state of the new global financial system as it has evolved in response to significant market changes and regulatory reforms triggered by the global financial crisis. The papers from that conference are collected in this volume, with contributions from an international array of government officials, regulators, industry practitioners and academics.＜/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。	10,141円
Law Reform in Early Modern England Crown, Parliament and the Press【電子書籍】[ Barbara J Shapiro ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア	＜p＞This book provides an illuminating commentary of law reform in the early modern era (1500?1740) and views the moves to improve law and legal institutions in the context of changing political and governmental environments.＜/p＞＜p＞Taking a fresh look at law reform over several centuries, it explores the efforts of the king and parliament, and the body of literature supporting law reform that emerged with the growth of print media, to assess the place of the well-known attempts of the revolutionary era in the context of earlier and later movements. Law reform is seen as a long term concern and a longer time frame is essential to understand the 1640?1660 reform measures.＜/p＞＜p＞The book considers two law reform movements: the moderate movement which had a lengthy history and whose chief supporters were the governmental and parliamentary elites, and which focused on improving existing law and legal institutions, and the radical reform movement, which was concentrated in the revolutionary decades and which sought to overthrow the common law, the legal profession and the existing system of courts. Informed by attention to the institutional difficulties in completing legislation, this highlights the need to examine particular parliaments.＜/p＞＜p＞Although lawyers have often been seen as the chief obstacles to law reform, this book emphasises their contributions ? particularly their role in legislation and in reforming the corpus of legal materials ? and highlights the previously ignored reform efforts of Lord Chancellors.＜/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。	5,790円
