General Strain Theory and Suicide Ideation in Adolescence
Comparison of urban and rural mortality rates across the lifespan in Aotearoa/New Zealand
BACKGROUND: Previous studies undertaken in New Zealand using generic rurality classifications have concluded that life expectancy and age-standardised mortality rates are similar for urban and rural populations. METHODS: Administrative mortality (2014-2018) and census data (2013 and 2018) were used to estimate age-stratified sex-adjusted mortality rate ratios (aMRRs) for a range of mortality outcomes across the rural-urban spectrum (using major u…
Both loved and despised
Our critical examination of James Meredith’s leadership during the racial integration of higher education in the early 1960s reveals an important, missing companion to social endorsement in the leadership construction process: social contestation. Through the lens of moral conviction theory and using a combined ANTi-History/Microhistorical method, we analyzed over 250 letters written to James Meredith by opponents undergoing a process of social i…

A new Fair Trade registration scheme based on the relations of production
Fashion, accessories, and homeware fall outside the regulations of Fairtrade Labelling Organizations International (FLO), which certifies mostly food products. A handful of fashion-led Fair Trade enterprises are now providing ranges of high-quality desirable products, made by workers employed in urban enterprises as well as independent producers in cooperatives. Tabeisa, an NGO involved in Fair Trade retailing, has developed a new regulatory fram…
Adapting the congruent temperament model with culturally specific work motivation elements
Purpose Although China is beginning to emerge on the world economic stage, many Chinese workers are newcomers to the Western notions of leadership. Those examining leader behavior and follower motivations should consider unique traditions that influence the motivation process in other cultural settings. The purpose of this paper is to address this issue. Design/methodology/approach The approach is the theoretical adaptation of the congruent tempe…

Changing Governance Patterns in the Trade in Fresh Vegetables between Africa and the United Kingdom
Over the past twenty years the marketing of African fresh vegetables in the United Kingdom has become dominated by large retailers that have adopted competitive strategies based on quality, year-round supply, and product differentiation. This has led to a dramatic change in marketing channels, from wholesale markets to tightly knit supply chains. Global value chain analysis is used to explain why the various stages of production and marketing hav…
Education and the professionalization of nursing
It has been argued earlier in this journal that from the formation of the United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting (UKCC) in 1984, until the initiation in 1989 of NHS reform by the third Thatcher administration, nurse education policy development was dominated by a nursing establishment located largely within the UKCC. During this period, in the context of an educational reform, a non-collective professional proje…
Professional education as a structural barrier to lifelong learning in the NHS
The concept of the learning society is analysed in relation to the healthcare sector and various occupations within it. It is maintained that although traditional boundaries have been blurred or eroded in the workplace in recent years, there remains strong opposition to this erosion on the part of many healthcare professions. This professional demarcation is particularly illustrated by the educational arrangements for various healthcare occupatio…

English nurse education and the reform of the National Health Service
Although nurse education is now a mainstream activity in English universities, its penetration into the education literature is limited and there has as yet been little dispassionate analysis of recent policy development in this area. Yet nurses are the most significant occupational group in the provision of direct patient care in the National Health Service (NHS). In 1992, for example, over 200 approved institutions in England were providing bas…

Are the Unemployed Part of the Urban Poverty Problem in Latin America
For a long period, the consensus in development studies argued that the unemployed in urban areas were not part of the poverty problem. It was argued in the 1970s that open unemployment in developing countries was not, in general, a serious social problem. This was not because rates of open unemployment were low in urban areas - Turnham cited open unemployment rates in urban areas of over ten per cent for countries as diverse as Ghana, Guyana, Pa…

Au-delà de la critique du déterminisme technologique. Comparaisons entre pays développés et pays en voie de développement
The methodological and theoretical pitfalls of comparative research between developed and developing lands (notedly Brazil) are pointed out. Some studies are presented of the obstacles that multinational firms have encountered when transferring technology or practices having to do with the organization of work. As he examines technological determinism, the author rejects the determinism inherent in certain theories of development and dependence. …

quality of all series, including antoniniani of the Gallic empire and bronzes of Postumus, which are poorly represented in the plates of R.I.C.

Auto Workers and the Working Class in Brazil
INTRODUCTION In May 1978 a series of stoppages occurred in the auto industry in Brazil, which is concentrated in the southern industrial belt of Sao Paulo. After a decade in which the semblance of industrial peace had been guaranteed by a combination of legal controls over the trade unions, repression of rank-andfile organizations in the plants, and strict control over political opposition to the military government, the working class once again …

Helena Hirata et John Humphrey The economic crisis and the employment of women. A case study in Brazilian industry. The theories on the industrial reserve army and the segmentation of the labor market have been unsettled by the fact that women have continued to work in spite of the economic recession and unemployment. The main points of view on the differential effects of the crisis on employment according to sex are considered in light of the re…

O emprego industrial feminino e a crise econômica brasileira
O emprego industrial feminino cresceu rapidamente na década de setenta, mas a divisão sexual do trabalho permaneceu muito forte. Isto levanta a possibilidade de o emprego das mulheres não ser desproporcionalmente reduzido como resultado da crise económica da década de oitenta. Um estudo de uma grande fábrica de energia elétrica em São Paulo revelou que a administração tinha critérios claramente discriminatórios para a seleção dos trabalhadores a …

V.— An Anglo-Saxon Cemetery at Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire
In June 1921, during the cutting of a new road in the village of Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, various articles were brought to light indicating an Anglo-Saxon cemetery. The excavation took place on a site at the back of the High Street, on the north side, in a gravel plateau about 100 yds. from the present bank of the river Avon, 150 yds. from the Roman Rycknild Street, and 200 yds. from the old ford, which lies to the east of the church. The s…

XII.— An Anglo-Saxon Cemetery at Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire
The further examination of the site in the meadow at Bidford-on-Avon, belonging to the Bidford Co-operative Society, and the adjoining garden, the property of the Stratford-on-Avon Brewery Company, was carefully carried out during the summer of 1923. The survey plan (pl. LIX) made by Mr. Wellstood shows the direction of the trenches, and the position of each interment
VIII.— Elizabethan Sheldon Tapestries
For many centuries, though a good many tapestries were woven in France, Flanders was the chief centre of the industry, and supplied the various European countries with tapestries and hangings of a similar character. Cloths of Arras were in demand for English country houses, and large purchases were made from time to time by the richer nobles. It was, however, at the beginning of the sixteenth century that tapestries came increasingly into demand …

Labour Turnover and Women's Work
Susan Cunningham's use of the data from the Relagdo Annual de Informa9oes Sociais provides a good example of the potentialities opened up to researchers by the expansion of statistical sources in Brazil in the past decade. Although some reservations about the reliability of the RAIS data need to be stated, there is no doubt that it represents a considerable advance on previously available labour-force statistics. This is above all the case with r…
