What She Said: How Jane Addams Informs Public Administration
No full textThis BookTalk introduces the remarkable Jane Addams as a pioneer of public administration and so much more. It uses Jane Addams story to make the case that public administration should reimagine its past by incorporating more diverse voices and ideas. An inclusive future must be built on a reexamination of our past. Pat Shields’s Jane Addams: Progressive Pioneer of Peace, Philosophy, Sociology, Social Work and Public Administration demonstrates how the life and works of Jane Addams was lost and is being recovered in a variety of interrelated fields. Jane Addams was well established on the national stage as a noted author, public speaker, leader of the settlement movement and advocate for reforms touching the lives of immigrants, women and children when public administration was emerging as a self-aware field. Her experiences as the executive director of a large nonprofit, a garbage collector, community organizer, feminist pragmatist and democratic theorist give her a unique set of public administration credentials. This BookTalk examines her life and ideas showing their relevance for contemporary PA.Political Scienc
Jane Porter in the Margins: Paratext in the Romantic National Novel
No full textThesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2020“Jane Porter in the Margins: Paratext in the Romantic National Novel” argues that Romantic novelist Jane Porter uses paratext in her national novels to accomplish bold political and personal goals. I examine her most famous novel The Scottish Chiefs (1810) as a case study of Romantic female authorship in which Porter asserts women’s power to shape conceptions of national identity. Often studied as an imitator of Walter Scott, Porter published two historical novels before Waverley (1814) and claimed her innovative precedence in multiple prefaces and footnotes to her novels. While Porter presented a modest feminine authorial persona to her public, my archival and bibliographical study reveals a politically engaged woman writer seeking to serve her nation from the margins. Each of the three chapters traces a paratextual element across multiple editions (1. Title page; 2. Footnotes and prefaces; and 3. Illustrations and bindings) to reveal how it facilitates Porter’s fervent support of British unity and women’s patriotic service. This dissertation studies the paratext of The Scottish Chiefs to help restore Porter’s reputation as a political writer and reveal her contributions to the nineteenth-century novel and women’s authorship. Beyond Porter, I seek wider acknowledgement of paratext’s crucial role beside the text within a book, particularly how it shapes the legacy of both book and author
Legal issues of human shields
No full textThe paper focuses on analyzing whether the civilians involved in the hostilities as involuntary
human shields enjoy the same legal protection under the law as voluntary human shields. The
author looks at the differences between voluntary and involuntary human shields and the
aspect of direct and indirect participation in hostilities. The analysis is based upon
International Law and Criminal Law articles and interpretations concerning the notion of
human shields. In addition, multiple cases where the human shields were observed, were also
examined to understand the court practice on how the court deals with the law breaches in
contemporary armed conflicts
