Intercept evidence from foreign language communications: Reliability and minimum standards in the interests of justice
This paper explores the role of Intercept Interpreters/Translators (IITs) in law enforcement communication surveillance efforts. It focuses on the production and reliability of Translated Intercept Records (TIR), which are comprehensive written records in the target language that may be produced for intelligence purposes or for use in court as Translated Intercept Evidence (TIE). The paper underscores the critical importance of reliable TIR for b…
Urban Fashion Formations in the Twenty‐First Century: Weberian Ideal Types as a Heuristic Device to Unravel the Fashion City
In recent years, local governments and academic researchers have drawn increasing attention to the idea of the fashion city as a strategic factor for urban economic growth. In addition to renowned fashion capitals, second‐tier cities of fashion have proliferated, giving rise to a large heterogeneity of centres of production, design, consumption and culture. Despite its rising popularity, however, the concept of the fashion city is still weakly co…
Unpicking the fashion city: Global perspectives on design, manufacturing and symbolic production in urban formations
In recent years, fashion design has been treated as a key element of the cultural and creative industries (CCIs), and the idea of the ‘fashion city’ has emerged as a potential strategy for the revamping of cities. This chapter argues that there is not a singular model of the ‘fashion city’, and that treating fashion simply as a CCI underplays its complexity. It proposes an analytical framework for thinking about fashion’s relationship with cities…
Implementing Supported Employment. Lessons from the Making IPS Work Project
Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is an internationally accepted and effective form of supported employment for people with severe mental health conditions. Despite its strong evidence base, the implementation of IPS has been slow and inconsistent. In England, a demonstration project, Making IPS Work , was developed to offer support for the implementation of IPS in six local sites National Health Service Mental Health trusts. The project aim…
Ethnic and Religious Diversity in the Politics of Suburban London
The notion of ‘suburbia’ is increasingly useless as a singular, simple description of place, identity or political culture. Focusing particularly on ethnic and religious diversity highlights the intensely differentiated nature of outer London. The tropes of ‘Metroland’, and ‘leafy suburbia’ deflect from recognition of this diversity, and the broadly‐found expectations about patterns of migration, suburbanisation and cultural change loosely associ…

Imperial cities: Overlapping territories, intertwined histories
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book explores the role of imperialism in shaping the history and geography of a variety of modern European cities. It shows how imperial preoccupations entered into debates over the reconstruction of a key ceremonial site at the heart of London in the opening years of the twentieth century. The book emphasises the ways in which imperi…
General editor’s introduction
When the Studies in Imperialism series was founded in 1985, it was dedicated to the study of the effects of empire and imperialism upon the home societies in Europe.While the focus has inevitably been principally upon Britain, the series has also been concerned to demonstrate the manner in which imperialism was a Europe-wide phenomenon and the extent to which these reciprocal influences had to be carried well beyond the conventional climax of the…
An integrative approach to understand vulnerability and resilience post-disaster: The 2015 cyclone Pam in urban Vanuatu as case study
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a multidimensional approach for effectively managing natural disasters; this paper has three research objectives. First, it provides an analysis on the hydro-geomorphological effects of the cyclone in the urban context. Second, it proposes an analysis for the vulnerability and resilience recovery of the populations living in urban areas. Third, it specifies the implications for sustainable recovery …
Memories of a U.S. Political Prisoner
We will fight from one generation to the next." In the 1960s and 1970s we anti-imperialists in the U.S. were inspired not only by that slogan from Vietnam but even more by how they lived it with their 2000-year history of defeating a series of mighty invaders. At the same time we felt that we just might be on the cusp of world revolution in our lifetimes. Vietnam's ability to stand up to and eventually defeat the most lethal military machine in w…
The Product of Our Souls: Ragtime, Race, and the Birth of the Manhattan Musical Marketplace
In 1912 James Reese Europe made history by conducting his 125-member Clef Club Orchestra at Carnegie Hall. The first concert by an African American ensemble at the esteemed venue was more than just a concert—it was a political act of desegregation, a defiant challenge to the status quo in American music. This book explores how Europe and other African American performers, at the height of Jim Crow, transformed their racial difference into the mas…
Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Minorities in Transition: LGBT Rights and Activism in Myanmar
Grounded in ongoing fieldwork inside Myanmar and amongst exiled Burmese communities, this article provides the first detailed account of the legal and human rights status of sexual orientation and gender identity minorities in Myanmar, with a focus on the abuses that they suffer. It also examines how Burmese activists overcame repressive laws to form an indigenous LGBT rights movement that has flourished since the start of the country’s recent po…
Categorizing Gender in Queer Yangon
Queer" research invariably entails practices of labelling and ascription, often through the adoption of local vernacular categories from the field.In Myanmar, practices of labelling are commonly unarticulated, and local terms are contested.Acts of categorization are thus challenged.The two dominant, non-gender normative subject positions are "open", denoting a feminine image, and "hider", denoting a masculine image.An examination of the elements …

Faith and suburbia: Secularisation, modernity and the changing geographies of religion in London's suburbs
Spectacular new religious buildings on London's outskirts are often cited as evidence of London's multicultural diversity. However, the suburban location of these new buildings is usually dismissed as incongruous, drawing on familiar tropes of the suburbs as sites of modernisation, materialism and secularism. This paper uses this assumed incongruity to address the complexity of relationships between religion and suburban space by tracing the sign…
The vicar's daughter and the goddess of tennis: Cultural geographies of sporting femininity and bodily practice in Edwardian suburbia
The 1919 Wimbledon Ladies final between Suzanne Lenglen and Dorothea Lambert Chambers has been treated as a decisive break not just in women's tennis, but in sporting femininity more generally. Lenglen has conventionally been seen as a harbinger of modern sporting femininity, particularly as expressed in her dress, her style of tennis and her physical athleticism. By contrast, Chambers has come to represent an older femininity, constrained by soc…
Measuring Tourists' Emotional Experiences toward Hedonic Holiday Destinations
Destinations are more likely to be successful if they recognize the experiential qualities of their offerings. However, with some exceptions, research into the emotional content of the destination experience remains largely underexplored. This current research addresses this lacuna and empirically investigates the dimensions of tourists' emotional experiences toward hedonic holiday destinations. Adopting a rigorous scale development procedure, ex…
Fashion’s World Cities
New York, Paris, London, Milan, Tokyo. This familiar list of cities conjures up the image of high fashion. This book examines the powerful relationship between metropolitan modernity and fashion culture. The authors look at the significance of certain key sites in fashion’s world order and at transformations in the connections between key cities. The status of fashion capital has now become a goal for urban boosters and planners, part of the wide…
New York City and the Transatlantic Imagination: French and English Tourism and the Spectacle of the Modern Metropolis, 1893-1939
Between the late nineteenth century and the Second World War, New York City became one of the most familiar cityscapes in the world and a major international tourist destination. This article explores the reactions of visitors from England and France, concentrating on responses to the city’s architecture and its ethnic and racial diversity. For many Europeans, New York disturbed ingrained assumptions about the nature of modern metropolises and th…
Interrogating Mixed-Race: A Crisis of Ambiguity
In many respects, issues surrounding ‘mixed-race’ identities rupture and dislocate much current thinking within post-race and new ethnicities paradigms. This article seeks to critically engage with what is arguably a marginalized and diverse ‘community’. An evaluation of theories emanating from the UK and USA seeks to challenge hybrid degenerative theories, and more recent attempts at explaining how such identities are negotiated in complex socia…

Heart of Empire? Landscape, Space and Performance in Imperial London
In this paper we address the ways in which global processes of imperialism helped to constitute the cultural geography of the capital cities of Europe. London is our focus, not least because its representation as an imperial city during the modern period was particularly fraught with difficulty. In the first section of the paper we consider the value and limitations of a 'post-colonial' perspective, and specifically the extent to which the discou…

Estimating the value of the social benefits to visitors to a large art gallery
Museums and galleries benefit the community. However, with increased pressure on funding, galleries have to demonstrate that the benefits equal or preferably exceed the costs of providing them. This is not an easy task, given the nature of the benefits which galleries provide. This paper identifies four categories of beneficiary: the visitors; the users – those who may be researchers, or from the media or education, who seek information or assist…

La Nouvelle-Calédonie à la croisée des chemins: 1989-1997
Cet ouvrage se veut un bilan de l'action entreprise par l'État français dans le cadre du rééquilibrage prôné par les Accords de Matignon. L'inégalité entre les ethnies au plan de la scolarisation, du partage du domaine foncier, des équipements, du développement et de l'accès aux services et aux emplois a motivé, au terme d'une crise grave dans les années quatre-vingt, toute une série de mesures afin de promouvoir une répartition plus équitable de…
