  • What to Expect from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's U.S. Visit
    What to Expect from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s U.S. Visit By Caroline Wadhams and Aarthi Gunasekaran September 25, 2013 Despite ongoing turmoil in the Middle East, the Obama administration continues its steady pursuit of a foreign policy makeover, reorienting its attention and resources to the Asia-Pacific—specifically India. Following a number of high-level visits by American officials to India, including Vice President Joe Biden’s trip in July and Secretary of State John Kerry’s trip in June, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will meet with President Barack Obama tomorrow during his second official trip to Washington as prime minister.1 During the meeting, President Obama and Prime Minister Singh will likely focus on the following six issues in the U.S.-India relationship: • Trade and investment • Defense cooperation • The U.S.-India civil nuclear deal • Climate change and clean energy • Immigration reform • Security issues and the strategic partnership 1 Center for American Progress | What to Expect from Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s U.S. Visit For the Obama administration, underlying these discussions will be the unmet expecta- tions of the U.S.-India relationship, a relationship envisioned as the cornerstone of the U.S. rebalance to the Asia-Pacific. While there were high hopes following the U.S.-India civil nuclear deal in 2008 and Prime Minister Singh’s 2009 visit to Washington, many U.S. policymakers have been disappointed by the Indian government’s failure to deepen the partnership by implementing the civil nuclear deal, making India more open to investment opportunities for U.S.

Welcome Welcome to the A level Economics course. Most students who choose to study A level Economics are new to the subject; no prior learning or knowledge of economics is required to be successful. The study of economics complements a range of other a level subjects, such as history, geography, business, mathematics and the Sciences, and the way of thinking that you will develop as you study economics will help you to interpret issues you meet in many of these subjects. Studying economics can provide you with important employability skills and is good preparation for those wishing to progress to higher education. If you are thinking about studying economics at university, it's a good idea to think about studying mathematics as one of your A levels. Economics is the study of how choices are made in the use of scarce resources to provide goods and services. Although you're not expected to know about the economy in detail at the start of the course, it won't all be new to you. Economics is largely about people and their economic choices.

  • The Arsenalisation of Space: the Imagined Community of a Football Club
    New Zealand Journal of Research on Europe Volume 9, Number 1, 2015 (June) THE ARSENALISATION OF SPACE: THE IMAGINED COMMUNITY OF A FOOTBALL CLUB William Sidnam Auckland, New Zealand Email: [email protected] New Zealand Journal of Research on Europe Volume 9, Number 1, 2015 (June) Abstract This article examines the relationship between the fan community of Arsenal Football Club and time-space distanciation. Since the end of European imperialism, the English football club has been quietly colonising the minds of spectators everywhere, introducing them to cultural forms that had once been unique to England. Now a global phenomenon, the North London club has an estimated 113 million fans worldwide. Using Benedict Anderson’s concept of “imagined community,” I analyse the conditions that have enabled fans from Lagos to Los Angeles, and from Beijing to Bangalore, to identify with a sporting institution based in a country they may have never visited. To explore the paradoxes of this long- distance relationship, this article analyses information about Arsenal that appeared in newspapers, blogs, and social media websites from 2004 to 2014. The study concludes that, with the advent of digital technologies, Arsenal is simultaneously embedded in English culture and accessible to the millions of fans living in the interminable spaces beyond its country’s borders. In an age marked by constant social and technological change, fans find in the football club a universal community capable of contributing to their sense of ontological security. Keywords: imagined community, identity, football fandom, Arsenal, time-space distanciation, mediated experience, liquid society, globalisation 135 New Zealand Journal of Research on Europe Volume 9, Number 1, 2015 (June) Introduction When Suleiman Omondi came home from the pub on 5th May 2009, he tied a rope around his neck and hanged himself.

  • Inventing the Communications Revolution in Post-War Britain
    Information and Control: Inventing the Communications Revolution in Post-War Britain Jacob William Ward UCL PhD History of Science and Technology 1 I, Jacob William Ward, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis undertakes the first history of the post-war British telephone system, and addresses it through the lens of both actors’ and analysts’ emphases on the importance of ‘information’ and ‘control’. I explore both through a range of chapters on organisational history, laboratories, telephone exchanges, transmission technologies, futurology, transatlantic communications, and privatisation. The ideal of an ‘information network’ or an ‘information age’ is present to varying extents in all these chapters, as are deployments of different forms of control. The most pervasive, and controversial, form of control throughout this history is computer control, but I show that other forms of control, including environmental, spatial, and temporal, are all also important. I make three arguments: first, that the technological characteristics of the telephone system meant that its liberalisation and privatisation were much more ambiguous for competition and monopoly than expected; second, that information has been more important to the telephone system as an ideal to strive for, rather than the telephone system’s contribution to creating an apparent information age; third, that control is a more useful concept than information for analysing the history of the telephone system, but more work is needed to study the discursive significance of ‘control’ itself. 3 Acknowledgements There are many people to whom I owe thanks for making this thesis possible, and here I can only name some of them.

  • Speaker Biographies an African Conversation Africa Ahead: the Next 50 Years
    2013 Ibrahim Forum Speaker Biographies An African Conversation Africa Ahead: The Next 50 Years Sunday, 10th November African Union Conference Centre, Addis Ababa Addis Ababa, 10.11.2013 2013 Ibrahim Forum 1 Held annually since 2010, the Ibrahim Forum aims to tackle specific issues that are of critical importance to Africa, and require both committed leadership and governance. Bringing together a diverse range of high-level African stakeholders belonging to various public and private constituencies, as well as selected non-African partners, the Forum is an open and frank discussion. It aims to go beyond stating issues and renewing commitments by defining pragmatic strategies, operational action points and shared responsibilities. Since this year sees the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of African unity, the focus of the 2013 Ibrahim Forum is on the major opportunities and challenges the continent will have to tackle over the next 50 years. To facilitate the debate, the panels will be organised around the four Ibrahim Index of African Governance (IIAG) categories – Safety & Rule of Law, Participation & Human Rights, Sustainable Economic Opportunity and Human Development – all of which are areas requiring exceptional leadership and governance. Each of the panels will aim to address four key questions: • What are the key priorities? • Who are the key actors responsible for driving and implementing the agenda? • What resources are available/necessary to ensure success and progress? • What indicators/mechanisms can be used to monitor implementation and measure results? Addis Ababa, 10.11.2013 IBRAHIM FORUM PANELS Panel 1 Panel 2 ‘Human Development’ ‘Sustainable Economic Opportunity’ The population of a country is a leader’s Recent decades have registered major shifts in fundamental unit of responsibility.
