Law and Order
THE HAMLYN LECTURES Thirty-seventh series Law and Order Ralf Dahrendorf K.B.E., F.B.A. STEVENS Law and Order by Ralf Dahrendorf K.B.E., F.B.A. Professor of Social Science in the University of Constance; formerly Director of the London School of Economics In this book, based on his 1985 Hamlyn Lectures, Professor Ralf Dahrendorf considers the fundamental questions posed for the social order of free countries by the decline in respect for the law. Taking as his point of departure the terrors of our streets and the riots in our football grounds, Professor Dahrendorf discusses the implication for social order and liberty of such issues as unemployment, the cracks in the party system and the growing disorientation of the young. There are four major themes in the book— • The Road to Anomia—crime statistics are but the most dramatic symptoms of a loosening of social ties and norms. • Seeking Rousseau, Finding Hobbes—a widespread dream of goodness has resulted in the dismantling of some of the institutions designed to protect us from badness. • The Struggle for the Social Contract—underlying social changes have led from the class struggle to conflicts about the boundaries of society. • Society and Liberty—most reactions to the new condition involve threats to liberty—we need to reassert the links between law, order and liberty. Professor Dahrendorf has had a most distinguished career, both in his native Germany and in the United Kingdom. In Law and Order he offers a lively and stimulating analysis of a topic of vital importance in the life of every citizen. -

EDITORIAL THE WHOLE FANZINE CATALOG 11/12 BRIAN EARL BROWN 16711 BURT R 07 it's late DETROIBMI . USA ■Well,I think this is a late issue since I intended tci .get it out about three weeks ago, which would have been 6 weeks after the last issue of hlofan should have been out. That was delayed,too.... That's one . reason why, if you'll check the indica below, you'll see that WoFan is now listed as a bimonthly publication TABLE OF CONTENTS There's a lot of bother to publishing an issue and I want to cut -bock a little on that bother. CHANGES Editorial page 2 In fact WoFan is going to be changing a lot in the Booksellers page A next few issues, a fact that you probably won't notice Clubzines page A because it's been different every time its come out. The most noticable difference is that starting with Newszines page A this issue, it's being mailed by via bulk mailing. Coraiczines page 5 There are currently about 150 US copies which isn't the magical 200 copies that the post office requires, Genzines but it's cheaper to mail out 200 by Bulk than it is to Australia page 6 mail 150 copies by fir,st class mail, and even more . with a double-sized issue like this. The 50 extra Canada page 7 copies will be mailed back to myself, then pi-obably England page 7 mailed overseas. It's kind of nasty of my to mail overseas fans 'used' fanzines, but I've been trying fr France page 7 from the first to find ways to make WoFan a breakeven Neu Zealand page 8 publication and I certainly can use the savings in postage that a bulk mailing will allow. -

MURROW: A LIFE By MARK BETKA n a cool September evening somewhere Oin America in 1940, a family gathers around a vacuum- tube radio. As someone adjusts the tuning knob, a distinct and serious voice cuts through the airwaves: “This … is London.” And so begins a riveting first- hand account of the infamous “London Blitz,” the wholesale bombing of that city by the German air force in World War II. -
English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada
Drawing on the Margins of History: English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada by Kevin Ziegler A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Kevin Ziegler 2013 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This study analyzes the techniques that Canadian comics life writers develop to construct personal histories. I examine a broad selection of texts including graphic autobiography, biography, memoir, and diary in order to argue that writers and readers can, through these graphic narratives, engage with an eclectic and eccentric understanding of Canadian historical subjects. Contemporary Canadian comics are important for Canadian literature and life writing because they acknowledge the importance of contemporary urban and marginal subcultures and function as representations of people who occasionally experience economic scarcity. I focus on stories of “ordinary” people because their stories have often been excluded from accounts of Canadian public life and cultural history. Following the example of Barbara Godard, Heather Murray, and Roxanne Rimstead, I re- evaluate Canadian literatures by considering the importance of marginal literary products. Canadian comics authors rarely construct narratives about representative figures standing in place of and speaking for a broad community; instead, they create what Murray calls “history with a human face . the face of the daily, the ordinary” (“Literary History as Microhistory” 411). -
