Book excerpt: When Alf King, Gang Boss is told he could get on the Local Council and so be on the Police Authority, he thought he could become a Police Boss at the same time. To the benefit of his friends and himself. His old enemy DS Harry Cuthbertson is furious (he reveres politicians)and the Home Secretary sets up a Focus Group to stop Alf - but see no practical strategy. Alf wins the Election with a thumping majority and goes to the Town Hall intending to solve all the Housing problems of the area in a matter of days. He meets Top Officials for the first time who take their routine steps to 'housetrain' newly elected Councillors. Alf is quickly reduced to subservience. He becomes assertive about his intentions for the Police though - which calls the Focus Group into Emergency Session. No practical solutions emerge - until Tarquin (the Home Secretary's Personal Secretary) provides the answer. Which infuriates Harry but also provides Alf with a welcome 'out'.

Book European Politics 1815   1848

Download or read book European Politics 1815 1848 written by Frederick C. Schneid and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three intervening decades between the Congress of Vienna and the Revolutions of 1848 are marked by enormous social, political, economic and cultural change. Liberalism, nationalism, romanticism and industrialism profoundly affected the course of Europe and compelled conservative monarchies to accept the principles of collective action and military force to curb political revolution. In the years immediately following 1815, the Quadruple and Holy Alliances served the dual purpose of preventing a restoration of Bonapartism and suppressing revolutions. By the 1820s these international associations dissipated, but the principles upon which they were founded informed the decisions of the respective governments through 1848. The classic articles and papers collected in this volume attempt to illustrate that despite the substantial changes to European society which occurred during these thirty years, European powers accepted common principles which influenced their state's domestic and foreign policies.

Book Updike and Politics

Download or read book Updike and Politics written by Matthew Shipe and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting the first interdisciplinary consideration of his political thought, Updike and Politics: New Considerations establishes a new scholarly foundation for assessing one of the most recognized and significant American writers of the post-1945 period. This book brings together a diverse group of American and international scholars, including contributors from Japan, India, Israel, and Europe. Like Updike himself, the collection canvases a wide range of topics, including Updike’s too often overlooked poetry and his single play. Its essays deal with not only political themes such as the traditional aspects of power, rights, equality, justice, or violence but also the more divisive elements in Updike’s work like race, gender, imperialism, hegemony, and technology. Ultimately, the book reveals how Updike’s immense body of work illuminates the central political questions and problems that troubled American culture during the second half of the twentieth century as well as the opening decade of the new millennium.
