Transnational Crime, Local Denial
No full textMackenzie, the author of the article and a senior researcher at the Scottish Centre for Crime and Justice Research at the University of Glasgow poses an argument of habitus (a form of 'practical knowledge') the concept of which collects features of social existence such as disposition, agency, strategy, structural reproduction, body, mind, choice, and unconsciousness. The chapter bases habitus on international research of law and morality in criminal cases where the accused often misrepresent or hide (silence issue) certain facts in order to get 'off the hook'. All the research, however has reached little impact on the present situation in misrepresentations of habitus. The author examines this and other factors like looting based upon Bourdieu's analyses of such measures
A personagem Antonio José na peça Antonio José ou O Poeta e a Inquisição : um estudo de caráter do protagonista
No full textA personagem do texto dramático constitui-se por meio do que revela de si e da sua relação com o(s) outro(s) dentro da obra, para representar a visão de mundo do autor. Domingos José Gonçalves de Magalhães, baseando-se na vida e obra do comediógrafo Antonio José da Silva, o Judeu, escreveu a tragédia Antonio José ou O Poeta e a Inquisição, cujo protagonista constrói-se num confronto rígido com a realidade, convergindo para a concepção dialógica de sujeito engendrada por Mikhail Bakhtin. Este trabalho tem como objetivo o estudo da construção do caráter da personagem Antonio José, com vistas ao exame da cosmovisão do tragediógrafo.The drama character is created by the way it reveals itself and its relationship with the other characters, in order to represent the author s point of view. Domingos José Gonçalves de Magalhães, based on the comedy author Antonio José da Silva, the Jewish s life and work, wrote the tragedy Antonio José ou O Poeta e a Inquisição, where the main character is built up in the context of a strict conflict with reality, converging to Bakhtin s concept of the dialogic subject. This research aims to investigate how the main character is built up in the play and also how the author s worldview can be seen in its relation with the character s ethos.Fundo Mackenzie de Pesquis
Biographic Memoir of Ernest Ingersoll: Naturalist, Shellfish Scientist, and Author
No full textThe name Ernest Ingersoll is well-known to many shellfishery biologists as the author of two outstanding monographs on the shellfisheries of the United States and Canada in the 1880's. The first (Ingersoll, 1881a), entitled "A Report on the Oyster-Industry of the United States," was a 252-page description of historical and contemporary oyster fishing' marketing methods, and statistical data in the eastern provinces of Canada and the coastal states of the United States. The second (Ingersoll, 1887), entitled "The Oyster, Scallop, Clam, Mussel, and Abalone Industries," was a l20-page summary of the first monograph about oysters as well as a history and description of contemporary methods and statistical data of the other shellfisheries. Although Ingersoll was, by profession, a naturalist and author but only briefly a shellfish scientist, these monographs are regarded as benchmarks, providing the principal descriptions of shellfisheries in North America in the 1700's and 1800's
Between the waves: currents in contemporary feminist thought
No full textWith a continuing focus on liberal feminism, Marxist feminism and essentialism, one would be forgiven for
thinking that feminist theory is unable to break free from the ‘second wave’. This is not the case. This article reviews three books which take on these feminist issues and offer new readings on the questions at the heart of feminism. Each provides clear links to feminism of the past but also connects to present debate and makes
suggestions for future directions for feminism. There is plenty of literature which bemoans the end of feminism and some which triumphantly hails our era as post-feminist: no longer in need of feminist theory. Contrary to such claims, each book tackles the problem of women’s oppression from a different perspective, each presents different solutions and in so doing they demonstrate that feminism is alive and well

Hydrogeology, geopressures and hydrocarbon occurrences, Beaufort-Mackenzie Basin
No full textAbout 97 400km of the coastal and offshore areas of the Beaufort-Mackenzie Basin were studied in the region from 68° to 71°N, and 130° to 137°30′W. Salinity of formation waters ranges up to 46 000mg/l at depths of 4km and shows evidence of extensive flushing by meteoric waters. Statistical multi-response permutation procedures demonstrate that, despite this deep flushing, it is also possible to distinguish formation waters from geopressure zones that had their composition modified by the membrane effects of shales. The top of the main geopressure zone lies at depths of about 2km beneath Richards island and increases in depth basinward to ~5km/ It is suggested that the main geopressure zone was already in existence sometime during the middle of the Tertiary, with its top lying at about 2km depth. Basinal uplift and erosion in the period from 6 to 5Ma was associated with extensive influx of meteoric water, which biodegraded the earlier formed hydrocrabons. Pliocene to Recent sediments of the Iperk sequence were deposited during a major basinal downwarp, with up to 3.5km being deposited far offshore. The geothermal regime has been able to adjust to this downwarping but the pre-Pliocene geopressure zone has not, and as a result still lies about 2km below the base of the Iperk sequence. Hydrocarbons, in the Mackenzie Bay and Kugmallit sequences (Miocene and Oligocene, respectively) occur above the main geopressure zone. -from Author
