A study examines accounting in a sugar refinery from 1900 to 1920 in two arenas of operation. The geography of accounting enabled the workers at Chelsea to have their working experience sequestered by the company. Accounting routinized their work at the refinery, enabling their labor to become monitored, empty of meaning, and, at times, overwhelming. The ideology of accounting provided the company with an instrument of evasion to silence the voice of labor and an instrument of self-deception designed to justify and insulate the authoritarian hierarchy of the company and the power of its Australian general manager, Edward Knox. Accounting became an ideology that sought to legitimate the exploitation of the workforce and the generous return to shareholders.
Clinical institutions have embedded their claims to legitimacy in research methodologies focussed on objectivity, replication and enumerative strength ([Ann Oakley], 2000; Hubbard, 1990; [Rosser], 1990). The type of knowledge-making activities in the midwife project that did not draw on these previously validated models escaped scrutiny because they were deemed banal, but also were dismissed because the "knowledge" to be produced was unlikely to impact on the clinical field studied. Our research team of humanities scholars seemed to intensify the sense of the hospital administrations and ethics committees that this research had little legitimate connection to the clinical field to be studied. As the epistemological paradigms were viewed as illegitimate (of uncertain origin and therefore...

Oh the other hand, because [Anne McClintock] understands nationalisms as necessarily gendered, and because of her keen attention to the use of domestic trope in representing national homelands, she cannot simply dismiss the identifications of nations with the family and domestic spaces as a matter of "political love." She shows that the trope of the family works on two levels: "First, it offers a 'natural' figure for sanctioning national hierarchy within a putative organic unity of interests. Second, it offers a 'natural' trope for figuring national time" (1997, p. 91). Consequently, the family and domestic space "offered an indispensable metaphoric figure by which national difference could be shaped into a single historical genesis narrative" (p. 91). Just as hierarchies of age and gen...
Canadians should view the collapse of the Bloc as a highly positive event. While there will be strong performers among the newly elected, there will also be those who threw their names into the hat at the encouragement of the NDP hierarchy. [...] they tend to vote in sweeps.
This study analyses types of pendentive dome mosques based on their variations from sectional view of documented drawings. The scope of this study is limited to the mosques constructed in Ottoman period which refers to the pendentive dome mosque architecture. The methodology applies descriptive analysis to classify its variation. This analysis takes into account that the main dome plays important role in classifying the variation. There are 51 mosques selected for the case studies. The study found that five types of the pendentive dome mosques can be identified accordingly. The number, position and organization of the dome design become the determining factors that influence the categories. The analysis also finds that all main domes share similar position located at the center of the p...
The whole goal of the (WIT) program is to get them working and then hopefully into an apprenticeship and ultimately into a career as a journey person ticket in the trade," [Shelley McNabb] said. "Generally speaking the job site is based on a hierarchy...we just try and prepare them. "It's tough because there is so few of us, but I mean I haven't had any problems, it's been great," she said. "It kind of bothered me (that) I didn't have the support of other women but I didn't go through the Women In Trades Program, maybe if I did I would have seen it differently," she said. On November 19th in Regina, [Tara Leggott] was recognized at an awards ceremony hosted by the SATCC, where she took home a SIIT Joint Training Committee -Aboriginal Journeyperson's Award.
The loudest cheers during John McCain's concession speech were for Gov. Sarah Palin. The hard-core faithful at the Arizona Biltmore Resort waved red pompoms and roared for the 44-year-old Alaska governor, unknown outside conservative circles until August, when McCain added her to the ticket to appeal to the right-wing base that had long mistrusted him.
The aim of this study was to examine similarities and differences in the pattern and extent of support among family members in five cultural groups in the Netherlands (Dutch mainstreamers, Turkish- , Moroccan-, Surinamese-, and Antillean-Dutch). Results revealed that the patterns of support were similar in all cultural groups: Provided support was larger than received support, parents provided and received more support than siblings, and emotional support was stronger than functional support. Using multigroup structural equation modeling, it was shown that the associations between family exchange, frequency of contact, and quality of relationship with parents and siblings were identical in all cultural groups. The cultural differences in mean scores were small for family exchange and qu...
