The report proceeds with a discussion of the potential for policy learning from the program in Scandinavia. The main challenges and obstacles to such learning are also identified and discussed. While respecting and understanding the large contextual differences, this report provides food for thought when addressing pressing issues; How can we find new ways to help refugees in need of protection and at the same time improve integration? Has Canada got it right?

The research and policy discussions included in Aboriginal Policy Research, Volumes 1 and 2, offer a portion of the original papers presented at the first Aboriginal Policy Research Conference held in Ottawa in 2002. Co-hosted by Indian and Northern Affairs and the University of Western Ontario, the conference promoted interaction between researchers, policy-makers, and Aboriginal peoples. It expanded on the knowledge of the social, economic, and demographic determinants of Aboriginal well-being, and sought to identify and facilitate the means by which this knowledge may be translated into effective policies. The texts are divided into complementary themes. Volume 1 begins with contextual research, followed by issues of demography and well-being, and concludes with the topical issue of education. The chapters in Volume 2 address the themes of economic development; health; gender issues; and crime, victimization, and healing. a3., Thompson Educational Publishing, Inc., 2004, 5, San Francisco, Calif: Fine Art Museums of San Francisco, 1997.

Wassner (Hadassah Brandeis Institute) analyzes the writings of Argentine public intellectual Marcos Aguinis (b. 1935), arguing that Aguinis has engaged in cultural and political issues by building upon a threefold tradition: "the public intellectual as a global historical entity with roots in the French Enlightenment; the public intellectual in Argentina; and the activist intellectuals of Latin America and Europe who are Aguinis's contemporaries and peers." Aiming to contextualize Aguinis's cultural democratization project across time and across boundaries through an analysis of the historical and literary justifications he presented for his agenda, she primarily focuses on his program for cultural democratization that he created as Argentina's Secretary of Culture in the 1980s and on his literary production between the end of Rafonss term as president in 1989 and the beginning of Nor Kirchner's presidency in 2003.

The Foundation manages the rights to Hemingways posthumously published and remaining unpublished work. In 1980, a group of Hemingway scholars assembled for a conference near the John F. Kennedy Library (the principal repository of Hemingway manuscripts and memorabilia) and formed The Hemingway Society. The Societys work has emphasized "the promotion, assistance and coordination of scholarship and studies relating to the works and life of the late Ernest Hemingway." One of its most important activities includes publication of The Hemingway Review, a peer-reviewed scholarly journal published twice a year. The journal specializes in researched scholarship on the work and life of Ernest Hemingway.The Hemingway Review is published twice a year, in November and May, by The Hemingway Society and The University of Idaho Press. Averaging about 150 pages in length, each issue of the journal specializes in feature -length scholarly articles on the work and life of Ernest Hemingway, and also includes notes, book reviews, library information, and current bibliography. All critical approaches are welcome, including but not limited to historical, textual, biographical, source, and influence studies, as well as gender-based, multicultural, ecocritical, and other post-structuralist methods.SOME FACTS ABOUT The Hemingway Review§ The Hemingway Review welcomes all critical approaches, traditional, contemporary, and cutting edge. Submissions are reviewed by scholars specializing in the method used and/or subject treated.§ The journal does not ordinarily publish fiction, poetry, or other writing that is not researched scholarship. Prospective contributors are encouraged to familiarize themselves with past issues.§ All work considered for publication is subjected to rigorous blind peer review by at least two outside readers in addition to the editor, making work published in The Hemingway Reviewvaluable for tenure and promotion dossiers.§ Twenty-four distinguished Hemingway scholars advise on editorial practices.§ In addition to feature-length articles, The Review includes notes, letters to the editor, book reviews, grant and fellowship information, and current bibliography.§ The Hemingway Review enjoys virtually limitless circulation to college, university, and public libraries via on-line subscription databases including Project Muse, Proquest, Ebsco, and Gale Infotrac.§ In addition, The Hemingway Review circulates in paper to hundreds of individual Hemingway scholars and college and university libraries around the world. We out-circulate not only other single-author journals, but also many journals with a broader scope.§ The Hemingway Review places scholarship directly into the hands of those readers most likely to apply it in teaching and research., Hemingway Society and The University of Idaho Press, 2008, 4, 2013.

Clark, New Jersey: Talbot Publishing, 2013. ISBN-13: 9781616194055. ISBN-10: 1616194057. Paperback. New. $29.95 * Relying on extensive surviving original records, this book analyzes the November 1851 trial in the federal circuit court of Robert Morris, the second black admitted to practice in Massachusetts, for rescuing a fugitive slave from the custody of the U.S. marshal in the federal courtroom in Boston. It demonstrates that Justice Benjamin Robbins Curtis, a supporter of Daniel Webster and the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 presiding under a recess appointment, made two critical rulings against Morris that were at odds with existing precedents. Finally, the book contextualizes Morris's trial among the other trials for this rescue, the prosecutions for the attempt to rescue Anthony Burns, another fugitive slave, in 1854, and the Supreme Court's decision in Dred Scott in 1857. "This "small" book packs a large wallop. Gordan navigates the complexities of trial advocacy and trial procedure with unexcelled mastery. His analysis of the complex legal issues, including the power of the jury to rule on questions of law as well as fact, is persuasive. Gordan also throws a revisionist light on some of the major players - like John P. Hale who emerges from the wings as the real leader of the abolitionist bar; and Benjamin R. Curtis, whose manipulation of the law in the Morris trial illuminates his famous dissent in Dred Scott v. Sandford. A gem of a book." -- R. KENT NEWMYER, University of Connecticut School of Law. "A wonderfully detailed exposition of the fugitive slave rescue trial of Robert Morris, John Gordan's work unearths a wealth of material about the events, the people, and the legal acumen of the lawyers and judges involved. It will enable scholars to evaluate a question central to our judicial system: What is the proper division of authority between judge and jury? The information contained in Gordan's book provides a much-needed historically accurate basis from which to answer that question." -- MAEVA MARCUS, The George Washington University Law School., 2013, 0, 1980. hard.

The main problem which this study sets out to solve is one of chronology: unlike most coinages of the Graeco-Roman world, the Athenian issues do not bear portraits of the ruling emperors and, thus, are not easily datable. In the past, the stylistic parallels of datable issues from other cities were used to fix the chronology of the Athenian issues but these parallels proved to be most misleading. The only evidence which can provide a true picture of the chronological development of the Greek Imperial coinage of Athens is archaeological. This evidence comes in two forms, both of which are used in this study. The first consists of hoards which were buried in antiquity for safe keeping. The relative wear of the coins within the hoard gives a good idea of the relative chronology of the series and if the burial date can be reliably ascertained, a reliable terminus ante quem can be obtained for the coins within the hoard. The second form of evidence is derived from coins found in stratified levels during archaeological excavation. The coins are often found in context with datable artifacts, especially pottery, which can, in turn, date the coins.^ The primary evidence for this study comes from the deposits of coins and other artifacts uncovered in the excavations of the Athenian Agora. No other site has produced so many Athenian Imperial coins the contexts of which are so readily recoverable. All the relevant deposits of the first three centuries A.D. which contain Athenian Imperials have been included in this study. In all cases the evidence of the coins themselves for the date of the deposit has been eschewed in favor of the contextual material found with them. The evidence of coins and hoards found in places other than the Agora has also been used to help fix the chronology of the coinage as has the metrology and denominational system of the coins themselves. There is also a survey of Greek Imperial coinage in general and a survey of the history of Roman Athens in relation to its coinage. The study closes with a complete catalogue of all the Athenian Imperial coins in the Agora -UPenn, 1980, 3, SAGE Publications Ltd, 2012. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. Preedy, Bennett, and Wise (all education, Open University, Milton Keynes, UK) present a collection of 20 chapters exploring current thinking and debate on the role of educational leaders and the strategic challenges they face. Previously published between 2008 and 2011, the 20 book chapters and journal articles were chosen to stimulate critical reflection and discussion among researchers, practitioners, and students of educational leadership. Topics addressed include leadership theories and values; strategic leadership for managing multiple and ongoing changes; the interrelationships between the external environment and internal contextual factors, and their impact on educational leadership; the use of partnerships and collaboration to improve both the educational and life experiences of children and young people; and a look forward to key issues in educational leadership, via two chapters on distributed and systems leadership, and educational reform.
