Social Changes Crime and Police International Conference June 1– 4 1992 Budapest Hungary Originally published in 1995 Social Changes Crime and the Police studies the relationship of social change and crime the role of the police amidst changing social conditions and the reaction of society and the state to the criminal problem. It examines the essential differences and challenges which confronted countries in Western and Eastern Europe after the collapse of the socialist system. In recent years many areas of Europe had experienced a period of rapid technological development which had changed economic and cultural structures creating temporary instability. Within a relatively short period of time traditional values and beliefs had been undermined. National boundaries and geographical differences had gradually lost their significance and the opening of frontiers had created easier conditions for crime. The nature of crime itself had been transformed by the increasingly close relationships between countries. While many Eastern European countries sought to undo the authoritarian legacies of the socialist period Western Europe faced new challenges to its urban order. The editors and the contributors also examine the kinds of new policing concepts which may be formulated and the new practices which may develop during the next few decades. Governments must determine the role of the police and the law in accordance with public demands for powerful policing combined with consideration of the individual’s rights thus maintaining the vital balance between personal freedom and social peace. | Social Changes Crime and Police International Conference June 1– 4 1992 Budapest Hungary GBP 90.00 1
Youth Technical Sessions Proceedings VI Youth Forum of the World Petroleum Council - Future Leaders Forum (WPF 2019) June 23-28 2019 Sain Over a decade ago the World Petroleum Council launched an initiative to hold an international professional youth forum. The first forum took place in October 2004 in China and had as its motto: Young people and innovations are the future of the oil industry. It was the first major event in the history of the WPC in which young professionals and academics had the leading role and had the opportunity to exchange their ideas in insights on the oil and gas industry with industry leaders and main representatives of the oil and gas industry. Since then issues of professional development and the disclosure of the creative potential of young industry professionals have been on the agenda of the World Petroleum Council as one of the key areas for the development of international cooperation focused on a strategic perspective. The Future Leaders Forum of the World Petroleum Council VI is the largest international platform for professional communication of young specialists in the oil and gas industry. The contributions in this book are much of interest to professionals and scientists interested or involved in the oil and gas industry or related areas. | Youth Technical Sessions Proceedings VI Youth Forum of the World Petroleum Council - Future Leaders Forum (WPF 2019) June 23-28 2019 Sain GBP 150.00 1

Mightier than the Sword How the News Media Have Shaped American History In this engaging examination of the media's influence on US history and politics Rodger Streitmatter visits sixteen landmark episodes from the American Revolution to the present-day fight for gay and lesbian marriage equality. In each of these cases Streitmatter succinctly illustrates the enormous role that journalism has played in not merely recording this nation's history but also in actively shaping it. Mightier than the Sword offers students and professors a highly readable and accessible alternative to journalism history textbooks. Instead of trying to document every detail in the development of US media through dry dull lists of names dates and headlines this book focuses on sixteen discrete episodes that illustrate a point that is much larger than the sum of their parts: media have played and continue to play an enormous role in shaping this nation. The fourth edition features an entirely new chapter on the way US media have championed various gay and lesbian rights initiatives from the 2003 Lawrence vs. Texas sodomy case through the June 2013 Supreme Court decision striking down DOMA (the Defense of Marriage Act). Balancing criticism and celebration of news media and exploring both print and electronic platforms Mightier than the Sword provides students with a sense of the power and responsibility inherent in the institution of journalism. | Mightier than the Sword How the News Media Have Shaped American History GBP 130.00 1
