Crossing the Border of Citizenship: Helen Taylor, the Independent Radical Democrat Candidate for Camberwell North, 1885

This article explores the campaign of one such frontier woman, Helen Taylor, to become the first woman MP. Taylor accepted the nomination of Camberwell Radical Club to stand as the Independent Radical Democrat candidate for Camberwell North in the November 1885 election. The radi…

Helen Taylor's work for land nationalisation in Great Britain and Ireland 1879-1907: Women's political agency in the British Victorian land movement
This article explores the contribution made by Helen Taylor to the Victorian land reform movement, 1879–1890. It concentrates on her political agency after 1882 to evidence that the importance of Taylor was three-fold. She was a leading activist in all land reforming groups and drew large audiences; she had independent means which enabled her to fund the organisations she was involved in and exert influence on them; and her background as John Stu…

Change in TE programs is needed to ensure that TE students are prepared to teach ELLs. Such change begins by educating TE faculty first. One catalyst for change, a faculty institute in which faculty, doctoral students, and public school personnel participated, …

Possessive Power
The concept of possessive power as it manifests in reproduction is the focus of criticism in this paper. The analysis utilizes both positive insights and illustrative mistakes from Beauvoir's account of maternity. An alternative notion of power is proposed to replace possessive power as proprietary control
The Russell-Meinong Debate
The debates between Bertrand Russell and Alexius Meinong from 1904 to i920 dealt with some fundamental issues in philosophy: reference, nonexistent objects, intentionality. Along with the enduring influence of Russell's philosophy, some misapprehensions about these exchanges have persisted. One is that Russell's objections to Meinong were definitive. The other stems from taking too seriously Russell's casual remark in i91 8 that Meinong's theorie…

Father Absence and Cross-Sex Identity: The Puberty Rites Controversy Revisited
This paper re-examines the puberty rites controversy associated with the work of John Whiting. Whiting explains the cross-cultural association between severe male puberty rites and low salience of father in the early socialization process by means of the intervening variable of ambivalence in sex (gender) identity in the growing male. The authors of this paper investigated this intervening variable directly in a polygynous community in the United…
Allocation of Central Government Budgets Over City Regions
The paper states the pressing need for a more analytical approach to the allocation of Central Government budgets and to budget forecasts for local areas. In many cases Central Government is unable to deal with individual projects of expenditure or investment and a strict optimisation at this micro level is impracticable. In these circumstances allocation must be based on broad and more aggregative indices, current and predicted. The paper offers…
