Essence of Indecision: Diefenbaker's Nuclear Policy,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McMahon, Patricia I., PUBLISHER: McGill-Queen's University Press, Tracing Diefenbaker's deliberations over nuclear policy, McMahon shows that Diefenbaker was politically cautious, not indecisive - he wanted to acquire nuclear weapons and understood from public opinion polls that most Canadians supported this position. However, Diefenbaker worried that the growing anti-nuclear movement might sway public opinion sufficiently to undermine his political support. He also feared that Liberal leader Lester Pearson could use the issue for political advantage. As long as Pearson opposed Canada's membership in the nuclear club, he could portray Diefenbaker's government as an irresponsible proponent of nuclear proliferation. Despite these reservations, Diefenbaker was involved in nuclear negotiations with the Americans throughout his tenure as prime minister, and an agreement was within reach on a number of occasions. When, in January , Pearson reversed his position, Diefenbaker felt trapped - in making a clear public statement in favour of nuclear weapons it would appear as though he was merely following his opponent's lead. When Canada acquired nuclear weapons in , it was under the leadership of Pearson, not Diefenbaker. The first book to deal exclusively with Diefenbaker's nuclear policy and the influence of the anti-nuclear movement, Essence of Indecision is key to understanding Diefenbaker's formulation of nuclear policy, and the environment, both international and domestic, in which that policy was created.

Biosphere Implications of Deep Disposal of Nuclear Waste:

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Wheater, H. S. / Bell, J. N. B. / Butler, A. P., PUBLISHER: World Scientific Publishing Company, The safety assessment of a deep repository for nuclear waste poses challenging scientific and technical questions. The risks from leakage of radionuclides from the repository, including transfers to the biosphere and the food chain must be assessed. This involves complex and poorly understood interactions between groundwater, soils, plants and the atmosphere. A unique, multidisciplinary experimental and modeling program at Imperial College London has been funded by UK NIREX to develop the science and to produce modeling tools to interpret and generalize the experimental data for safety assessment. This monograph brings together for the first time the accumulated results and experience from almost two decades of research. The results have important implications for the safety assessment of nuclear waste worldwide and provide new insights into the geochemical and biological controls on the upwards migration of radiochemicals in the near-surface environment.

The Politics of Rights: Lawyers, Public Policy, and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Scheingold, Stuart A. / Feeley, Malcolm M., PUBLISHER: University of Michigan Press, Stuart A. Scheingold's landmark work introduced a new understanding of the contribution of rights to progressive social movements, and thirty years later it still stands as a pioneering and provocative work, bridging political science and sociolegal studies. In the preface to this new edition, the author provides a cogent analysis of the burgeoning scholarship that has been built on the foundations laid in his original volume. A new foreword from Malcolm Feeley of Berkeley's Boalt Hall School of Law traces the intellectual roots of "The Politics of Rights" to the classic texts of social theory and sociolegal studies. "Scheingold presents a clear, thoughtful discussion of the ways in which rights can both empower and constrain those seeking change in American society. While much of the writing on rights is abstract and obscure, "The Politics of Rights" stands out as an accessible and engaging discussion." -Gerald N. Rosenberg, University of Chicago "This book has already exerted an enormous influence on two generations of scholars. It has had an enormous influence on political scientists, sociologists, and anthropologists, as well as historians and legal scholars. With this new edition, this influence is likely to continue for still more generations. "The Politics of Rights" has, I believe, become an American classic." -Malcolm Feeley, Boalt Hall School of Law, University of California, Berkeley, from the foreword Stuart A. Scheingold is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Washington.

Cultivating Development: An Ethnography of Aid Policy and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mosse, David, PUBLISHER: Pluto Press (UK), Development agencies and researchers are preoccupied with policy; with exerting influence over policy, linking research to policy and with implementing policy around the world. But what if development practice is not driven by policy? Suppose that the things that make for 'good policy' - policy that legitimises and mobilises political support - in reality make it impossible to implement? By focusing in detail on the unfolding activities of a development project in western India over more than ten years, as it falls under different policy regimes, this book takes a close look at the relationship between policy and practice in development. David Mosse shows how the actions of development workers are shaped by the exigencies of organisations and the need to maintain relationships rather than by policy; but also that development actors work hardest of all to maintain coherent representations of their actions as instances of authorised policy. Raising unfamiliar questions, Mosse provides a rare self-critical reflection on practice, while refusing to endorse current post-modern dismissal of development.

The Doctrines of US Security Policy: An Evaluation Under

The practice of outlining principles for the conduct of US security policy in so-called doctrines is a characteristic feature of US foreign policy. From an international lawyer's point of view,two aspects of these doctrines are of particular interest. First,to what degree are the criteria for the use of force,as laid down in these doctrines,consistent with the limitations for the use of force in international law? Second,which law-creating effects do these doctrines have? Furthermore,the legal nature

Essence of Australia Wedding Dress

Absolutely stunning. I just cannot bare to put this dress in a box when it is just so amazingly beautiful and has literally brought me so much happiness! So I have come to the decision I am going to sell it to allow someone else to enjoy this magical gown as much as I did. I also have the vale (which has the most gorgeous crystals and is long which perfectly works with the style of the dress as I hope you can see!) however I would be requesting an extra 70 pounds for the vale. This is an amazing offer, the dress has been dry cleaned and apart from some of the button rings at the back needing a tiny stitch the dress is as perfect as new. I am a size 12, smaller on the top but big on the hips, the dress itself is actually deemed as a 14 and has then been altered to fit me. Would easily fit a 10 with alterations, or a 12. This is an award winning dress and is still featured on the designers website. The dress code is style so you can search for it yourself to get more details and see just how beautiful it is! I haven't got all my wedding photos back yet but the detail on the back is just breathtaking, you can see it on their site a little clearer! Any questions please do let me know! Thank you x Read More
