Education in a Federal UK

Education in a Federal UK

Britain’s two recent referenda - on Brexit (2016) and on Scottish independence (2014) - have raised in the public mind fundamental questions about the future of the UK. It seems that for the first time the public the media and the political elite have woken up to the fact that in different parts of the UK there are different histories different aspirations and different imagined futures in relation to a whole range of vitally important political issues. But what the public debate often fails to recognise is that in many areas of public life – perhaps especially education – the UK is already a federal state and in key respects has been so for many years. The aim of this volume is therefore to take stock: to try and capture what the current state of educational policy and practice is across the whole of the UK. This has been achieved by commissioning two different papers from each of the four countries – Wales Scotland Northern Ireland and England. The first is an overview exploring the distinctive history principles and current policies of each country. The second paper has been specifically chosen as a case study of a key policy that highlights the distinctiveness of each country – the Foundation Phase for Wales assessment policy in Scotland ‘shared education’ initiatives in Northern Ireland and higher education policy in England. Taken together these eight papers give an important insight into the complexities of educational policy and practice across the whole of the UK today. This volume was originally published as a special issue of Oxford Review of Education. | Education in a Federal UK

Privatisation in the UK

Privatisation in the UK

The Conservative’s privatisation programme was one of the most ambitious aspects of their attempt to redraft the political and economic map of the United Kingdom. Originally published in 1988 this book explores the processes of privatisation from a variety of standpoints. Its contributors include academics enterprise executives and government officials many of whom had been closely involved in the programme. Fiscal legal and social aspects of privatisation are explored but the book treats the subject as more than an immediate political issue and takes the opportunity to discuss the success – or otherwise – of public enterprise and to explore the implication of the UK experience for other countries which have an interest in privatisation. | Privatisation in the UK

The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination

The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination

Fascinated by them unable to ignore them and imaginatively stimulated by them Charles Dickens was an acute and unsentimental reporter on the dogs he kept and encountered during a time when they were a burgeoning part of the nineteenth-century urban and domestic scene. As dogs inhabited Dickens’s city so too did they populate his fiction journalism and letters. In the first book-length work of criticism on Dickens’s relationship to canines Beryl Gray shows that dogs real and invented were intrinsic to Dickens’s vision and experience of London and to his representations of its life. Gray draws on an array of reminiscences by Dickens’s friends family and fellow writers and also situates her book within the context of nineteenth-century attitudes towards dogs as revealed in the periodical press newspapers and institutional archives. Integral to her study is her analysis of Dickens’s texts in relationship to their illustrations by George Cruikshank and Hablot Knight Browne and to portraiture by late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century artists like Thomas Gainsborough and Edwin Landseer. The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination will not only enlighten readers and critics of Dickens and those interested in his life but will serve as an important resource for scholars interested in the Victorian city the treatment of animals in literature and art and attitudes towards animals in nineteenth-century Britain.

Planning in the UK Agendas for the New Millennium

Planning in the UK Agendas for the New Millennium

This title was first published in 2003:The advent of the Labour government in 1997 provoked major change in the political landscape of the UK. Priorities changed and different themes moved to the top of the agenda such as local democracy community transparency sustainability and co-ordinated or 'joined-up' thinking. Many of the new priorities such as community empowerment involved a reappraisal of the purpose and procedures of planning while others changed the legislative and institutional frame within which planning operated. This indispensable volume traces and analyzes the implications for planning created by this political shift. Presenting an overview of the general debates on contemporary UK planning the book proceeds to identify four major areas as key themes for planning in the third millennium. These are: the new institutional context; ensuring social inclusion and participation; promoting sustainability; and the debate over building at higher densities on Brownfield sites. Illustrated with in-depth case studies the book provides a timely and important examination of the current state of planning in the UK and suggests best-case scenarios for the future. | Planning in the UK Agendas for the New Millennium

Modern Slavery Legislation Drafting History and Comparisons between Australia UK and the USA

Modern Slavery Legislation Drafting History and Comparisons between Australia UK and the USA

This book will aid understanding and interpretation of the Californian UK and Australian Modern Slavery Acts and will provide an in-depth three-way comparative analysis between the three Acts. Modern slavery is a new legal compliance issue with new legislation enacted in California (Transparency in Supply Chains Act 2010) the UK (Modern Slavery Act 2015) and most recently Australia (Modern Slavery Act 2018). Such legislation mandates that business of a certain size annually disclose the steps that they are taking to ensure that modern slavery is not occurring in their own operations and supply chains. The legislation applies to businesses wherever incorporated or formed. Key aspects of primary focus will include lessons learned from the California UK and Australian experience and central arguments on contentious issues for example: monetary threshold for determining reporting entities penalties for non-compliance compliance lists and appointment of an Anti-Slavery Commissioner. The book will also discuss how contentious issues were ultimately resolved and will undertake a comparative analysis of the Californian UK and Australian Acts. Modern Slavery Legislation will be of interest to academics and students of business and human rights law. | Modern Slavery Legislation Drafting History and Comparisons between Australia UK and the USA

Music Festivals in the UK Beyond the Carnivalesque

Music Festivals in the UK Beyond the Carnivalesque

The outdoor music festival market has developed and commercialised significantly since the mid-1990s and is now a mainstream part of the British summertime leisure experience. The overall number of outdoor music festivals staged in the UK doubled between 2005 and 2011 to reach a peak of over 500 events. UK Music (2016) estimates that the sector attracts over 3. 7 million attendances each year and that music tourism as a whole sustains nearly 40 000 full-time jobs. Music Festivals in the UK is the first extended investigation into this commercialised rock and pop festival sector and examines events of all sizes: from mega-events such as Glastonbury Festival V Festival and the Reading and Leeds Festivals to ‘boutique’ events with maximum attendances as small as 250. In the past research into festivals has typically focused either on their carnivalesque heritage or on developing managerial tools for the field of Events Management. Anderton moves beyond such perspectives to propose new ways of understanding and theorising the cultural social and geographic importance of outdoor music festivals. He argues that changes in the sector since the mid-1990s such as professionalisation corporatisation mediatisation regulatory control and sponsorship/branding should not necessarily be regarded as a process of transgressive 'alternative culture’ being co-opted by commercial concerns; instead such changes represent a reconfiguration of the sector in line with changes in society and a broadening of the forms and meanings that may be associated with outdoor music events. | Music Festivals in the UK Beyond the Carnivalesque

A Strategic Approach to the UK Construction Industry

A Strategic Approach to the UK Construction Industry

The construction industry is a microcosm of the economy as a whole and as such the economics of the sector contains many of the aspects of the economy in general albeit with fascinating and unique features. What are the implications of economic theory for the future of UK construction? How does the industry ensure innovation quality and efficiency? What priorities might best serve the construction industry those working in it and their customers?In seeking answers to these and other questions the UK government has commissioned a number of reports on the construction industry including the Latham and Egan reports and more recently Construction 2025. These have invariably proposed time and cost targets for the construction industry. In this new book Stephen Gruneberg stands in stark contrast to those reports and presents the relevant theoretical aspects of construction economics to account for the behaviour of construction firms and suggest a strategy for future growth and sustainability. He discusses the theory and data relating to the output of firms in relation to the type of firm the market and how these firms behave as a result. The purpose of this book is to advocate the measures needed to create the kind of industry that must be fostered to ensure the quality of its output sustainability and the fair terms and conditions of employment for its workforce. Gruneberg’s new book is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the economic forces that determine industry outcomes and who has a stake in the success of the UK construction sector. | A Strategic Approach to the UK Construction Industry

Norway’s EU Experience and Lessons for the UK On Autonomy and Wriggle Room

Norway’s EU Experience and Lessons for the UK On Autonomy and Wriggle Room

This book examines Norway’s affiliation to the EU and systematically assesses the potential suitability of this arrangement for the UK as a viable EU affiliation post-Brexit. Framing the book within the framework of the broader European context the authors ask how much autonomy and room to manoeuvre tightly integrated non-member states have under this arrangement. They present an in-depth assessment of Norway’s close EU affiliation and provide insight into what this may reveal to us about the post-Brexit European political order. The book’s analytical framework centred on autonomy under complex interdependence has relevance well beyond the confines of the Norway case. This includes the UK not least since the EU–UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) leaves considerable uncertainty. It contains transitory elements; there will be implementation reviews and there may be many more bilateral and multilateral agreements before the trade relationship is fully defined. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European Union politics Norwegian politics British politics European integration and more broadly to European studies and international relations. | Norway’s EU Experience and Lessons for the UK On Autonomy and Wriggle Room
