Book excerpt: The 1950s ocean liner Queen Isabella is making her final voyage—a retro cruise from Long Beach to Hawaii and back—before heading to the scrapyard. For the guests on board, it’s a chance to experience a bygone era of decadent luxury, complete with fine dining, classic highballs, string quartets, and sophisticated jazz. Smoking is allowed but not cell phones—or children, for that matter. But this is the second decade of an uncertain new millennium, not the sunny, heedless mid-twentieth century, and certain disquieting signs of strife and malfunction above and below deck intrude on the festivities, throwing a trio of strangers together in an unexpected and startling test of character.

Book A Cultural Analysis of Mobile Communities on Board Cruise Ships

Download or read book A Cultural Analysis of Mobile Communities on Board Cruise Ships written by Colin Symes and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cruise ships are among the star performers of the tourist industry. Their traditions stem back to the nineteenth century. Though these traditions have undergone modernisation, this book argues that the pleasures that the passengers of the past sought parallel those of their contemporary counterparts. It examines the textual representation of cruises in tourist brochures and in the travel writing of, among others, Mark Twain and Paul Theroux, before turning its attention to being a passenger on a cruise ship. Much of the book draws on the authorâ (TM)s own experiences of travelling on cruise ships and, by way of comparison, a container ship. Of particular focus is what passengers do with their time aboard such ships, and how that time is subject to many of same controls found elsewhere in modern institutions.

Book The 21st Century Maritime Silk Road

Download or read book The 21st Century Maritime Silk Road written by Keyuan Zou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the opportunities and challenges that both Europe and Asia face under the framework of the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road Initiative. The 21st Century Maritime Silk Road Initiative (MSR Initiative), put forward by the Chinese government together with the Silk Road Economic Belt, reflects China’s ambition and vision to shape the global economic and political order. The first step and priority under the MSR Initiative, according to documents issued by China, is to build three ‘Blue Economic Passages’ linking China with the rest of the world at sea, two of which will connect China with Europe. This initiative, however, still faces enormous challenges of geopolitical suspicion and security risks. This book seeks to assess these risks and their causes for the cooperation between the Eurasian countries under the framework of MSR and puts forward suggestions to deal with these risks in the interdisciplinary perspectives of international relations and international law. Featuring a global team of contributors, this book will be of much interest to students of Asian politics, maritime security, international law and international relations.

Download or read book True North written by Stephanie Gallagher and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-08-09 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second Edition – Revised and Updated The new bottom line for 21st century capitalism will measure success based on the company’s impact on all stakeholders, including the environment and the global community at large. Throughout his interesting career and challenging business ventures, Knut Utstein Kloster has proven the axiom that businesses can “do well by doing good.” Long before ‘green’ became more than a color, or capitalism came generally to mean more than just profit-making, Knut Utstein Kloster was investing in socially responsible enterprises that valued all of its stakeholders. The now popular expression, ‘triple bottom line,’ was Knut’s modus operandi from day one. The story emphasizes the important role of the conscience in navigating a just and equitable course forward. Kloster’s “no-man’s land” is the distance between the world-that-is and the world-as-it-should-be.
