In recent years, American art scholars have increasingly focused on the importance of cross-cultural exchanges during the nineteenth century. As essayist François Brunet puts it, mid-nineteenth century landscapes were “transnational . . . permeated by complex transactions where ‘American’ originality produced itself not only in imitation of or reaction against ‘European’ influences, . . . but as critical mirroring and incorporating of ‘European’ images.” Articles in this collection make clear that the “conversation of cultures” went both ways, with American artworks and culture also affecting European artistic and literary practice. Essays explore the transnational origin of many types of American artworks, from stained glass windows, which usually copied their European originals with great exactitude, to paintings and sculptures using distinctly American motifs, such as the Puritan and the cowboy, to distinguish American art students from their Parisian masters. It also examines American cultural icons, particularly the American Indian, appropriated by European writers, artists, and philosophers to embody primeval wisdom. A distinguished international group of scholars, including Brunet, Robert Rydell, and Peter Gibian, offer valuable perspectives on the ever-broadening field of transnational cultural studies.

This incisive book deals with the use of the criminal law to enforce morality, in particular sexual morality, a subject of particular interest and importance since the publication of the Wolfenden Report in 1957. Professor Hart first considers John Stuart Mill's famous declaration: "The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community is to prevent harm to others." During the last hundred years this doctrine has twice been sharply challenged by two great lawyers: Sir James Fitzjames Stephen, the great Victorian judge and historian of the common law, and Lord Devlin, who both argue that the use of the criminal law to enforce morality is justified. The author examines their arguments in some detail, and sets out to demonstrate that they fail to recognize distinction of vital importance for legal and political theory, and that they espouse a conception of the function of legal punishment that few would now share.

How is society influenced by engineering and technology? How in turn does society shape engineering and technology? This book from the National Academy of Engineering explores ways in which technology and society form inseparable elements in a complex sociotechnical system. The essays in this volume are based on the proposition that many forces move and shape engineering, technology, culture, and society. Six specialists both inside and outside the field of engineering offer views on how engineering responds to society's needs and how social forces shape what engineers do and what they can achieve.

A team of distinguished scholars here reassesses the notion of the developmental state to establish a common vocabulary for debates on the relationship between political institutions and industrial growth. Some observers have blamed the recent global financial crisis on the developmental strategies of East Asian states, whereas others attribute the turmoil to the sudden demise in the 1990s of these very same policies. The authors offer dispassionate accounts of how developmental states have emerged and evolved over the past century, and examine how they really work. The analyses offered in the book look broadly at the combination of political, bureaucratic, and moneyed influences that shape economic life in East Asia and elsewhere. The developmental states are often beset by structural corruption and inefficiency, but they still have a role to play in honing national competitiveness in global markets. The analyses contained in this book do not point to the disappearance of the developmental state, but to its reinvention. Book jacket.

In our endeavor to reinforce and emphasize the benefits of modern industrial design course to many students across India we are bringing on a small edition of this book titled “Concepts in Engineering Design” .The subtlety of creation with problem solving approach is needed to be deeply ingrained into the vast diaspora of Indian students; especially with emphasis of government on make in India , start up India and zero effect zero defect projects. It is abundantly clear that classroom teaching has to be up scaled with practical approach and industrial reasoning. So the takeaway from this course to students, researchers and professional after the course should be engineering with a systems approach, involvement of design development as a team, integration of several streams of learning like environmental, physiology etc. into the Concept of Engineering Design. We wish we are in some manner involved in changing their outlook from classic learning to professional learning involving them into project based activity, case studies ,resourceful learning etc. They become agents of change for future generations and they grasp the fact that they can become professional designers and not merely subservient engineers. Good luck. “The primary objective of the course is to introduce concepts in engineering design to students from all the engineering disciplines. This course broadly covers the prerequisites for an innovative design followed by concepts of products design cycle right from planning, designing, manufacturing, distributing and its usage.”-RGPV

In Judges, legislators and professors one of the world's foremost legal historians shows how and why continental and common law have come to diverge so sharply. Using ten specific examples he investigates the development of European law, not as the manifestation of certain ideological and intellectual trends, but as largely the result of power struggles between the judiciary, the legislators, and legal scholars, each representing certain political and social ambitions. Now available in paperback, Judges, legislators and professors provides an historical introduction to continental law which is readily accessible to readers familiar with the common law tradition and vice-versa.
