Older autistic people and ICT

The mixed methods approach involved parallel qualitative and quantitative data collection from a single survey instrument.

Older Autistic People, Access and Experiences of Services, and the Factors That Affect This
This paper presents new empirical data obtained from interviews and focus groups on older (50 and over) autistic people's experiences of accessing a variety of services. The involvement of older autistic people and giving voice to their experiences was central to all aspects of the research process. This work makes a significant contribution to the scarce literature on older autistic people. In particular, it discusses the factors that act as bar…

Chocolate cities
Marcus Hunter and Zandria Robinson have provided us with an innovative methodology for analysing "maps" of African Americans' lived political, social and cultural experiences past and present. Their powerful innovation is creating maps of the black experience based on black people's lived experience. They argue that carefully tracing spatially blacks' political, social and cultural patterns over time leads one to the conclusion that the shared ex…
Selling Out or Buying In?
Selling Out or Buying In? is the first work to illuminate the process by which consumers’ access to goods and services was liberalized and deregulated in Canada in the second half of the twentieth century.
Unintended consequences of the 'bushmeat ban' in West Africa during the 2013-2016 Ebola virus disease epidemic
Following the 2013-2016 outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in West Africa, governments across the region imposed a ban on the hunting and consumption of meat from wild animals. This injunction was accompanied by public health messages emphasising the infectious potential of wild meat, or 'bushmeat.' Using qualitative methods, we examine the local reception and impact of these interventions. Fieldwork was focused in 9 villages in the Eastern an…

A Canadian Girl in South Africa
A “Civilizing” Industry
Scholarship examining public pronouncements on “mass culture” in Canada during the post-World War Two period has focused overwhelmingly on the pessimistic voices of the cultural critics who feared mass culture's deleterious effects upon national identity, democracy, and intellectual freedom. A more accurate understanding of the extent to which mass culture was contested terrain in post-war Canada requires an analysis of the optimistic pronounceme…
Putting Cities on the Map
This study reveals the manner in which the anticipated legacies of the 1954 British Empire and Commonwealth Games held in Vancouver, British Columbia parallel those associated with sports mega-events since the 1980s. It also documents the extent to which pronouncements concerning the 1954 Games were echoed elsewhere among Commonwealth Games host cities between 1950 and 1990 and focused on pursuing urban legacies involving publicity, tourism reven…
Acting global, thinking local
Challenging earlier scholarship that has suggested that the Commonwealth Games contributed unproblematically to imperial and commonwealth unity, this article explores the multiple, and conflicting, contemporary local meanings of the 1954 British Empire & Commonwealth Games held in Vancouver, Canada. In addition to emphasising the sporting and economic dimensions of the Games, the article introduces the concept of ‘liquid imperialism’ to highlight…

Liberalism in Devon and Cornwall, 1910–1931
Liberalism in Devon and Cornwall before 1914 pursued a traditional ‘democratic’ rhetoric based on a class division which associated the Liberal party with ‘the people’ and Unionism with a privileged aristocracy. The ‘new Liberalism’ and social reform were unimportant. In the 1920s, the Gladstonian trinity of peace, retrenchment and free trade comprised easily the most common theme in Liberal candidates’ speeches. The Gladstonian tradition remaine…

Money and the real impact of the Fourth Reform Act
The real significance ofthe Representation of the People Act, 1918, for the Liberal and Labour parties lay in its mundane and little discussed financial provisions, not in its extension of the franchise. Despite the electoral reforms of 1883–5, election contests before 1914 were still expensive enough effectively to exclude the Labour party from politics outside the industrial centres. In 1918 the politicians of the older parties took the opportu…

The Tendency of the Surplus to Rise, 1963–1988
In the increasingly universal monopoly-capitalist economy and culture of the late twentieth century, people no longer need what they want or want what they need. Wants are artificially manufactured while the most desperate needs of innumerable individuals remain unfulfilled. Although labor productivity has steadily risen, the overall efficiency and rationality of society has in many ways declined. Indeed, it is almost impossible to arrive at any …
Revamping the Sociology of Class
The discussion of within sociology has certainly reached a crisis point.

The most influential debate on within the field, centered on the structuralist Marxist attempt to explain the dynamics of by producing in…
