It arose out of a series of exchanges between members of the North American AERC, theCommission of Professors of the American Association of Adult Continuing Education [AAACE] and theBritish SCUTREA. In 1985, the Commission of Professors [AAACE] was awarded a grant by theW.K.Kellogg Foundation to encourage short-term exchanges between lecturersin Britain and North America with the emphasis on new lecturers who had had less than four years aslecturers.Other funds came from the British Council, SCUTREA and many universities. Over the next two years, twenty-one lecturers were selected and participated in anational conference abroad and visited two or three universities during a fortnight's trip. This groupsolicited the support of SCUTREA, AERC and CASAE to be co-sponsors of an international researchconference based around the eighteenth annual conference of SCUTREA. A further grant from the KelloggFoundation has facilitated international participation in the conference. The TAD represents theculmination of that activity. The conference includes over ninety papers, involving well over a hundred presenters. Asthe papers were submitted and accepted a number of themes began to emerge.It is around these themes that the conference has been organised: Comparative and International Issues Research Frameworks Theory and Practice Teaching and Learning Social Purpose and Policy Issues Cultural Issues Gender Issues Professional Education and Training Many people and organisations have been involved in the preparation for thisconference and we cannot list them all. We thank them and hope the conferencewill continue the international dialogue between adult education researchers.

  • A Penny All the Way
    SECOND BRITISH g q [\ ] £ Ţ EDITION. A PENNY ALL THE WAY THE STORY OF PENNY POSTAGE BY FRED. J. MELVILLE PRESIDENT OF THE JUNIOR PHILATELIC SOCIETY LONDON : 4 7, S trand. W. C f— 7 l£t * S 'J Photo] [ Passano. THE RIGHT HON. SYDNEY BUXTON M.P. A P e n n y a l l t h e W a y . INTRODUCTORY. n preparing this short story of penny postage at a time when popular interest in the subject is aroused by the inauguration of penny postage between Great Britain and the United States, the writer has given his chief attention to the more obscure phases of the develop­ ment of the idea of penny postage. Rowland Hill and his great struggle to impress both the Post Office and the Treasury officials with the main arguments in favour of Uniform Penny Postage are matters which are dealt with in our histories. But of his namesake, John Hill, who tried hard to induce the Council of State to look favourably upon a similar plan nearly two hundred years earlier, nothing is known. The name of William Dockwra is known only to students of postal history and to philatelists. Yet he established and conducted what was in many senses a better system of local postage in London in 1680, at the rate of one penny per letter, than was in existence in 1840. After Rowland Hill came one Elihu Burritt, “ the learned blacksmith,” whose memory is cherished in the United States, and who, long before his own country had adopted Uniform Penny Postage, urged Great Britain to give the world what he termed “ Ocean Penny Postage,” which was different to, yet anticipatory of, Imperial Penny Postage and Universal Penny Postage, which became the questions of later years.

  • Elihu Burritt and Friends
    Elihu Burritt and Friends HE Library at Friends House has received during the past year or two gifts of letters written by Elihu T Burritt to Friends whilst he was engaged upon his Peace and Brotherhood mission in England during the middle years of last century. The donors of these very welcome additions to the Library have been James Edmund Clark of Street, Harriet Alexander of Worthing and Charlotte Lyndon of Hindhead. The last named had received from her mother, Anna Mary Ransom (nee Southall) of Hitchin, over eighty letters written to A. M. Southall by Elihu Burritt during the years 1850-56. It was my happy privilege to suggest to Charlotte Lyndon that this valuable collection of letters should find a permanent home at Friends House. We learn from these Burritt-Southall letters that it was due to Joseph Crosfield of Manchester that Burritt first came to England in 1848. He found an open door among Friends everywhere. His unassuming manner and persuasive methods of propaganda appealed to the quiet orderly life of Friends. He adopted two principal ways of working. One through the establishment of Olive Leaf Circles among women and, secondly, through a journal which he edited entitled The Bond of Brotherhood,. He also gained a con­ siderable following among liberal-minded business men by his advocacy of what he called " Ocean Penny Postage ". This proposal appealed to many as the logical development of Rowland Hill's introduction of Uniform Penny Postage for the United Kingdom in 1840. * 1 James Edmund Clark of Street has permitted me to see an interesting note made by the late William S.

Traditions about Miriam in the Qumran Scrolls Sidnie White Crawford The literature of Second Temple Judaism (late sixth century BCE to 70 CE) contains many compositions that focus on characters and events known from the biblical texts. The characters or events in these new compositions are developed in various ways: filling in gaps in the biblical account, offering explanations for difficult passages, or simply adding details to the lives of biblical personages to make them fuller and more interesting characters. For example, the work known as Joseph andAseneth focuses on the biblical character Aseneth, the Egyptian wife of Joseph, mentioned only briefly in Gen 41:45, 50.' This work attempts to explain, among other things, how Joseph, the righteous son of Jacob, contracted an exogamous marriage with the daughter of an Egyptian priest.

E-mail: [email protected] cNijmeegs-Instituut voor Sociaal-Cultureel Onderzoek (NISCO), Postbust 9104, 6500 HE Nijmegen, The Netherlands. E-mail: [email protected] This article argues that the entrance of the Lijst Pim Fortuyn in the Dutch Parliament after the May 2002 elections shows the relevance of the Schattschneider –Mair thesis of party system change. Fortuyn introduced a new line of conflict that restructured party competition in the Netherlands. The introduction of this new line of conflict has transformed the Dutch party system abruptly. The Dutch case differs from many other west European countries in which the rise of a successful radical right-wing populist party has changed the party system gradually. Comparative European Politics (2007) 5, 282–302. doi:10.1057/palgrave.cep.6110097 Keywords: multi dimensional political space; lines of conflict; party system change Introduction The 2002 Dutch parliamentary elections were one of the most volatile in the history of Western Europe (Mair, 2002). From 1998 to 2002, the governing Purple coalition commanded almost a two-third majority in the Dutch Lower House, but after the 2002 elections it was left with only one-third of the seats.

  • The International Peace Movement 1815-1914: an Outline
    The international peace movement 1815-1914: an outline Script of an online lecture given by Guido Grünewald on 9 June 2020* I will try to give an outline of the emergence and development of an international peace movement during its first 100 years. Since English is not my mother tongue and I haven’t spoken it for a longer time I will follow a written guideline in order to finish the job in the short time I have. The first peace organisations emerged in America and in Britain. This was no coincidence; while on the European continent after the end of the Napoleonic Wars restoration took over there were evolving democracies in the anglo-Saxon countries and a kind of peace tradition as for example carried by the quakers who renounced any kind of war. For those early societies the question if a war could be defensive and therefore justified was from the beginning a thorny issue. The New York Peace Sciety founded by merchant David Low Dodge followed a fundamental pacifism rejecting all kind of wars while the Massachussets Peace Society (its founder was unitarian minister Noah Worcester) gathered both fundamental pacifists and those who accepted strictly defensive wars. With about 50 other groups both organisations merged to become the American Peace Society in 1828. The London Peace Society had an interesting top-tier approach: its leadership had to pursue a fundamental pacifist course while ordinary members were allowed to have different ideas about defensive wars. On the European continent some short-lived peace organisations emerged only later. The formation of those first societies occured under the influence of Quakers (one of the 3 historic peace churches which renounced violence) and of Christians who were convinced that war was murderous and incompatible with Christian values.
