The role of emergent champions in policy implementation for decentralised drug-resistant tuberculosis care in South Africa
OBJECTIVE: Champions are recognised as important to driving organisational change in healthcare quality improvement initiatives in high-income settings. In low-income and middle-income countries with a high disease burden and constrained human resources, their role is highly relevant yet understudied. Within a broader study on policy implementation for decentralised drug-resistant tuberculosis care in South Africa, we characterised the role, stra…
A Short History of Transport in Japan from Ancient Times to the Present
A Short History of Transport in Japan from Ancient Times to the Present is a unique study: the first by a Western scholar to place the long-term development of Japanese infrastructure alongside an analysis of its evolving political economy. Drawing from New Institutional Economics, Black offers an historically informed critique of contemporary planning using the example of Japan’s historical institutions, their particular biases, and the power th…
We had to manage what we had on hand, in whatever way we could’
In 2011, the South African National TB Programme launched a policy of decentralized management of drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) in order to expand the capacity of facilities to treat patients with DR-TB, minimize delays to access care and improve patient outcomes. This policy directive was implemented to varying degrees within a rapidly evolving diagnostic and treatment landscape for DR-TB, placing new demands on already-stressed health sys…

To Understand Is to Forgive
Social emotional learning (SEL) is an increasingly important area of study that aims to develop skills critical for healthy social functioning. Despite SEL’s growing ubiquity, little attention has been paid to how to achieve SEL knowledge transfer. One promising approach is to teach a model of the emotion system. A randomized control study was conducted with a sample of U.S. high school graduates (n = 303) to test this SEL methodology. The impact…

This paper explores the role of the Army Pay Services during the Great War. On the face of it this may not appear to be a major issue in the overall conduct of the War. However, the Army Pay Services, together with the expansion in depth and scope of separation and dependent’s allowances, and the employment of women resulted in a massive bureaucracy being effectively administered and managed. It is argued that the results of this maintained the l…
Flooding and Mental Health
BACKGROUND: Floods are the most common type of global natural disaster. Floods have a negative impact on mental health. Comprehensive evaluation and review of the literature are lacking. OBJECTIVE: To systematically map and review available scientific evidence on mental health impacts of floods caused by extended periods of heavy rain in river catchments. METHODS: We performed a systematic mapping review of published scientific literature in five…

Political Essay on the Kingdom of New Spain
The acclaimed Prussian naturalist Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) was referred to by Charles Darwin as 'the greatest scientific traveller who ever lived'. Several of his works were in the library aboard the Beagle, including the multi-volume Personal Narrative of Travels, two books on geology and Tableaux de la nature (all reissued in the Cambridge Library Collection). Darwin's copy of this two-volume 1811 New York edition of Humboldt's Politi…
Building Bridges to the Past
Some contemporary teachers of medieval studies have observed that, given the changing role of religious belief in our increasingly secular Western society, any widely shared body of knowledge among undergraduate students about Christian ethos and history is becoming less and less of a given and that, furthermore, this lack of familiarity with Christian tradition poses significant challenges to our work in the classroom to promote curiosity about …

POV-T provides a framework for uncovering underlying patterns that lead to deep knowledge. Perspectivity technologies provide a platform for multiloguing, a place for learners to share the viewpoints of others, negotiate meaning, and create learning cultures. Readers are invited on a journey…

The military influence on engineering education in Britain and India, 1848–1906
The original colleges for military engineers—the Royal Military Academy (RMA) Woolwich and the East India Company (EIC) Seminary at Addiscombe—were the only outlet for a curriculum based on the theory and practice of engineering taught within an academically orientated institution in Britain during the nineteenth century. Overall, engineering in Britain was taught through work-related traditional apprenticeship systems that focused on the ‘practi…
Why Does Employment Legislation Not Damage Small Firms
Business rhetoric and conventional theory expect that employment regulations will have negative effects on small firms. Prior research has shown that effects are quite rare, but has not explained why. Case studies of 18 firms from three sectors identified four explanations. (1) Perceptions of effects tend to be broad and general, rather than reflections of concrete experience. (2) ‘The law’ is not uniform, with older laws being largely taken for …

Going Against the Historical Grain
This article discusses a process of restructuring of working practices within two manufacturing firms with respect to its implications for gendered occupational segregation. A contextualized, historically situated analysis is presented, which is cast within debates on the nature of gendered occupational identity, equality initiatives and arenas of power and influence for women and men, within what were traditionally male‐dominated organizational …
International Relations in the Eighteenth Century
An analysis of the ways in which different composite monarchies conducted international relations in the eighteenth century reveals the interplay of structure and contingency in shaping change and the discussion of change. Hanover-Britain is compared with Saxony-Poland. Considering Britain as an example of a polity created and shaped by a dynastic personal union redresses teleological tendencies in the treatment of international relations and off…

Jointism and the Role of the Workplace Union in the auto‐components Industry
This article is part of a case study history, from the British auto‐components industry involving a changing workplace regime from the late 1970s through to the 1990s. Employing the concepts of ‘dual commitment’ and ‘incorporation’ we explore, partly through the voices of participants, the process of involvement in that regime. We consider the implications for how trade unions might respond to policies on ‘jointism’, and for management vis‐a‐vis …

Differences in Reaction to Frustration as a Function of Need for Approval
Differences in reaction to frustration on the Rosenzweig P-F test were assessed for high and low n approval Ss (as measured by the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability scale). as compared with the low group, high n approval Ss gave significantly fewer E responses ( p < .025) but more M responses ( p < .05). No differences were found for the 1 category
Differences in Reactions to Rosenzweig's P-F Study by Defensive and Nondefensive Repressors and Sensitizers
Repressor-sensitizer differences in expression of direct aggression (high scores on the extrapunitive dimension of Rosenzweig's Picture Frustration Study) were found only when the Marlowe-Crowne “defensiveness” measure was used to separate Ss into defensive and nondefensive types. Nondefensive repressors and sensitizers had significantly higher extrapunitive scores than defensive repressors. Since defensiveness in large part accounted for the dif…
