As a Child You Have No Way of Knowing How Fast Or Otherwise The
A FOREIGN COUNTRY: GROWING UP IN RHODESIA Nigel Suckling Draft: © January 2021 1 I – MUNALI – 5 II – LIVINGSTONE – 43 III – PARALLEL LIVES – 126 IV – LUSAKA – 212 V – GOING HOME – 244 APPENDIX – 268 2 FOREWORD As a child you have no measure of how fast the world around you is changing. Because you’re developing so quickly yourself, you assume your environment is static and will carry on pretty much the same as you grow into it. This is true for everyone everywhere, naturally. Most old people can, if suitably primed, talk indefinitely about the changes they’ve seen in their lifetimes, even if they’ve never moved from the place where they were born; but some environments change more drastically than others, even without a war to spur things along. One such was Northern Rhodesia in southern Africa in the 1950s and 60s. As white kids growing up then we had no way of knowing, as our parents almost certainly did, just how fragile and transient our conditions were – how soon and how thoroughly the country would become Zambia, with a completely different social order and set of faces in command. The country of course is still there. In many ways its urban centres now look remarkably unchanged due to relative poverty. The houses we grew up in, many of the streets, landmark buildings and landscapes we were familiar with are still recognizably the same, much more so in fact than in many parts of Europe. What has vanished is the web of British colonial superstructure into which I and my siblings were born as privileged members, brief gentry on the cusp of a perfectly justified and largely peaceful revolution that was soon to brush us aside. -

COLLEGIO NUOVO GOES INTERNATIONAL FONDAZIONE SANDRA E ENEA MATTEI PAVIA 2008 In collaboration with With the contribution of Collegio Nuovo goes international Edited by Paola Bernardi and Saskia Avalle INTRODUCTION Thirty years after it was set up and in recognition of its hosting such an important event as the third meeting of the Women’s Education Worldwide network in June 2008, which brings together many of the most prestigious women’s colleges in the world, Collegio Nuovo is delighted to publish this volume. Its aim is to tell how it came onto the world stage and at the same time to provide a basic account of its history and the life of the college within the context of the University which is also such a feature of Pavia as a town. This publication is also envisaged as a new “business card” for the Collegio as it relates to its international partners, both current and those which we hope will become partners in the future. Collegio Nuovo’s international focus dates back to its very beginnings as an institution, which, as the Statute of the Fondazione Sandra e Enea Mattei states, is to “contribute in a very real way to the intellectual progress of the country, by education and assisting in the cultural development of young women enrolled at the State University and other institutions of a higher level in Pavia, who display distinct aptitude for study”, indeed its international outlook is one of its main focuses. So much so that hosting its first foreign student and setting up in-house language courses date back to its year of opening (1978). -
A Question of Political Will: Corruption and Public Administration in Ireland Di Gary Murphy, Robert Gillanders E Michael Breen
A question of political will: Corruption and Public Administration in Ireland di Gary Murphy, Robert Gillanders e Michael Breen Abstract: A question of political will: Corruption and Public Administration in Ireland – The paper provides the reader with a transversal analysis of the issue of corruption in Ireland – including the Irish legislation against corruption and the economical shortcomings of corruption. Keywords: Ireland; Transparency; Corruption; Public administration. 1. Introduction At the end of May 2018 the Irish parliament (Oireachtas) passed all stages of the Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Bill of 2017. The original bill was introduced in November 2017 by the Minister for Justice and Equality, Charles Flanagan, as the final piece in a range of acts entitled to ensure that Irish politics and public life was clean. The purpose of the bill was to completely modernise Irish anti-corruption laws and make them more accessible to the general public. The Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Act 2018 repealed and replaced seven previous Prevention of Corruption Acts dating from 1889 to 2010. The 2018 act was, however, far more than a simple consolidation of the old law. Rather it was a robust and innovative piece of legislation that provided for a number of new offences as well as stronger penalties for those convicted of corruption. The Act followed a range of open government initiatives such as the Freedom of Information Act 2014, the Protected Disclosures Act 2014, and the Regulation of Lobbying Act 2015. In that context the Act enabled the Irish state to meet with some of its international obligations as well as significantly strengthening its legislative defences against white collar crime and corruption. -
Vargas Llosa's Late Turn Against Imperialism in El Sueño Del Celta ______
Tricontinental Modernities: Vargas Llosa's Late Turn against Imperialism in El sueño del celta __________________________________ NICHOLAS BIRNS EUGENE LANG COLLEGE, THE NEW SCHOOL 1. Revising the Celtic In its mixture of the personal and the political, its concentration on an individual making difficult moral choices, and its wide historical lens, Mario Vargas Llosa's El sueño del celta (2010), published only weeks after he garnered that year’s Nobel Prize for Literature, is reminiscent of many of his earlier novels. I wish to contend that, even more, it is an effective sequel to his 1981 novel La guerra del fin del mundo, not only treating many of the same themes but also providing a contrast between Vargas Llosa in the wake of his disillusionment with left-wing radicalism and the Peruvian writer after more or less thirty years being on the center-right. Whereas the Brazil-set novel seemed aimed at the errors of leftist utopianism, the more recent work indicts imperialism in Africa, Latin America, and Europe. This essay will show how this “tricontinental” agenda is complemented by a “modernity” that, for Vargas Llosa, is both ideological and stylistic. The Celt of El sueño del celta is Roger Casement, the British government official, imperial muckraker, and, ultimately, committed Irish nationalist revolutionary. But Casement is not the first Celt (a category that includes, among others, both the Scots and the Irish) in Vargas Llosa’s oeuvre. Galileo Gall, the chronologically inclined anarchist in La guerra del fin del mundo was a Scotsman as well. Furthermore, Gall was originally intended to be, like Casement, an Irishman, only, as Efraín Kristal points out, becoming a Scotsman in the “final version” (125). -

Theatre of the Absurd : Its Themes and Form
THE THEATRE OF THE ABSURD: ITS THEMES AND FORM by LETITIA SKINNER DACE A. B., Sweet Briar College, 1963 A MASTER'S THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS Department of Speech KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 1967 Approved by: c40teA***u7fQU(( rfi" Major Professor il PREFACE Contemporary dramatic literature is often discussed with the aid of descriptive terms ending in "ism." Anthologies frequently arrange plays under such categories as expressionism, surrealism, realism, and naturalism. Critics use these designations to praise and to condemn, to denote style and to suggest content, to describe a consistent tone in an author's entire ouvre and to dissect diverse tendencies within a single play. Such labels should never be pasted to a play or cemented even to a single scene, since they may thus stifle the creative imagi- nation of the director, actor, or designer, discourage thorough analysis by the thoughtful viewer or reader, and distort the complex impact of the work by suppressing whatever subtleties may seem in conflict with the label. At their worst, these terms confine further investigation of a work of art, or even tempt the critic into a ludicrous attempt to squeeze and squash a rounded play into a square pigeon-hole. But, at their best, such terms help to elucidate theme and illuminate style. Recently the theatre public's attention has been called to a group of avant - garde plays whose philosophical propensities and dramatic conventions have been subsumed under the title "theatre of the absurd." This label describes the profoundly pessimistic world view of play- wrights whose work is frequently hilarious theatre, but who appear to despair at the futility and irrationality of life and the inevitability of death. -

United Kingdom Defence Statistics 2010
UNITED KINGDOM DEFENCE STATISTICS 2010 th Published: 29 September 2010 DASA (WDS) Tel: 020-7807-8792 Ministry of Defence Fax: 020-7218-0969 Floor 3 Zone K Mil: 9621 78792 Main Building, Whitehall E-mail: [email protected] London SW1A 2HB Web site: http://www.dasa.mod.uk INTRODUCTION Welcome to the 2010 edition of UK Defence Statistics, the annual statistical compendium published by the Ministry of Defence. Changes to UK Defence Statistics (UKDS) this year include a new section on Defence Inflation and an expanded International Defence section in Chapter 1, the restructuring of the Armed Forces Personnel section in Chapter 2, and a new section on Amputations in Chapter 3. UK Defence Statistics (UKDS) is a National Statistics publication, produced according to the standards of the Official Statistics Code of Practice. However some of the tables in UKDS do not have National Statistics status – some are produced by areas outside of the scope of the Government Statistical Service; some do not yet meet all the quality standards of the Official Statistics Code of Practice; and others have not gone through the required assessment process to be classed as National Statistics. All such tables are clearly marked with explanatory notes. This year UKDS is once again being issued as a web document only, due to financial constraints within the Ministry of Defence. Each table and chapter is available in pdf format which is suitable for printing. There is also a pdf version of the entire publication, and of the UKDS factsheet. We have ceased publication of the UKDS pocket cards this year, since they are of limited value in electronic format. -
