    Auf Wiedersehen Pet: Past and Present

    H-Film Auf Wiedersehen Pet: Past and Present Discussion published by Elif Sendur on Wednesday, November 13, 2019 We are inviting abstracts for a publication on the British television series Auf Wiedersehen Pet to mark the 35th anniversary of its first screening. We are interested in a range of contributions including; academic articles, fan responses, reminiscences, revisiting locations, interviews, etc. Auf Wiedersehen Pet first appeared on the television screens in 1983. Initially conceived as a single six part series it went on to run for 40 episodes over 5 series. The first series followed the plight of British workers forced to look for work overseas as recession hit Britain. The series, in 1986 showed a brighter, affluent Britain, but one which was ultimately corrupt. Voted in a recent Radio Times poll the number one favourite ITV drama over its 50 year history,Auf Wiedersehen, Pet continues to capture the imagination of the viewing public since its first airing in 1983. Over four series and a special, it portrayed the highs and lows of a disparate band of labourers. AufPet, as it became known to the writers, had a prestigious lineage. The series was the brainchild of a northern film-maker, Franc Roddam. It arrived after a long line of impressive cinema films and TV dramas which represented gritty working class life in all its glory and horrors. Such hard-hitting ‘social problem’ dramas as Cathy Come Home, Peter Terson’s The Fishing Party (BBC Play for Today, 1972), Boys From the Black Stuff and Roddam’s own The Family, had already begun to pinpoint the central dramatic component parts of working class representation; jobs (getting them, losing them, suffering over them), damaged relationships, drink, sex and music.

Albers Samuel G. Binkley Counterinsurgency: Mariam F. Chaudhry Historical Lessons and Kimberly Craswell Jordan S. Freeman Best Practices Carrie E. Lytle Tristan L. Myers Rami Naser Peter T. Sloan The recently updated counterinsurgency (COIN) doctrine for the U.S. Army (FM 3-24) includes a lengthy discussion of the role of intelligence in COIN, but does not give the U.S. intelligence community useful guidelines for operations.1 Instead, the field manual provides an all-inclusive laundry list of information to be collected without any useful guidance on priorities and methods. The manual acknowledges the crucial role of the intelligence community in COIN, but leaves out an actionable set of standards to guide its operations. To lay the groundwork for an intelligence doctrine, or a set of best practices, for COIN, this report reviews the literature on both the role of intelligence and how counterinsurgency operations are fought and won. We use this literature to create a framework outlining how For helpful comments on this project the authors would like to thank William Rosenau, Kathi Webb, Michael Spirtas, Michael Hix, Roger Molander, and the other RAND researchers who engaged the research team, as well as the faculty and students of the Bush School of Government and Public Service at Texas A&M University. The authors would also like to thank John Parachini for his helpful suggestions, comments, and, especially, his generous support and sponsorship of this project.

Abstract The 1960s was a period of change for the British cinema, as it was for so much else. The six feature films directed by John Schlesinger in that decade stand as an exemplar of what those changes were. They also demonstrate a fundamental change in the narrative form used by mainstream cinema. Through a close analysis of these films, A Kind of Loving, Billy Liar, Darling, Far From the Madding Crowd, Midnight Cowboy and Sunday Bloody Sunday, this thesis examines the changes as they took hold in mainstream cinema. In effect, the thesis establishes that the principal mode of narrative moved from one based on objective realism in the tradition of the documentary movement to one which took a subjective mode of narrative wherein the image on the screen, and the sounds attached, were not necessarily a record of the external world. The world of memory, the subjective world of the mind, became an integral part of the narrative.
