The invention of Romanal
Alfred Michaux’s is a name known to members of the Esperanto Movement who are knowledgeable about its glorious early days. Among the most prominent of the pioneers, he was a friend of the language’s creator, and the person who set up the first international congress, an annual tradition which only the two World Wars and the coronavirus pandemic have interrupted. What is generally not known about Michaux is that he ceased his activity for Esperant…

Trust”, professional power and social theory
Purpose This paper sets out to examine the relationship between trust and professional power in the context of post‐Foucauldian social theory. Understood in its micro‐political terms and conceived as impacting on individual identity and agency at a number of levels: intrapersonal, interpersonal, organisational and macro levels. Design/methodology/approach This is a conceptual and theoretical approach. Findings The findings illustrate that the con…
Genetic-Social Science and the Study of Human Biotechnology
We require an ontologically flexible, meta-theoretical framework in order to study the ethical implications of genomics and the social construction of the Genome Project. It is argued in this article that a modification of Sibeon's anti-reductionist sociology, which focuses upon agency-structure, micro-macro and time-space, to include a focus upon the biological variable, psychobiography and power would be a 'starting point' for a sociology of ge…
The Bio‐Medical Model and Ageing
Anti‐reductionist social theory is a relatively ‘new’ but methodically eclectic body of theory which analyses the complexity of the tripartite theory, policy and practice. The work of Roger Sibeon (1996, 1999 and 2004) has contributed to a sensitising frame work in regard to a sociology of knowledge: generating epistemic narratives for theoretical construction and re‐construction, contrasting to a substantive sociology for knowledge based upon me…
Perceptions of archaeology amongst primary school aged children, Adelaide, South Australia
A public archaeology programme was initiated at the Fern Avenue site (an early nineteenth century Adelaide jam factory) as an integral part of the archaeological investigations conducted between March 2000 and November 2000. One component of the public archaeology programme was an archaeological education programme for primary and early secondary aged school children. The primary school component of the programme provided 583 inner-city primary a…
Bone Sampling For Isotope Analysis
Isotope analysis has been frequently used in archaeology as means for inferring human and faunal palaeodiet and climatic change through time (Ayliffe and Chivas 1990; Pate 2000). Isotope analysis uses a variety of extraction techniques to isolate bone collagen, hydroxyapatite or cholesterol that can then be analysed through GC (gas chromatography), GCIMS (gas chromatography/mass spectrometry), IRM-GUMS (isotope ratio monitoring-gas chromatography…

Ordnance Survey
This illustrated history gives an account of the early pioneering surveys of the British Isles and traces developments made both in surveying and in map production - from measurement with glass rods and steel chains to positioning by satellite, and from copper engraving and hand-colouring to digital mapping and laser printing. Ordnance Survey was founded in 1791 under the military board of ordnance to provide mapping of south-east England in read…
