Hardly a day goes by without a major retailer, bank or car manufacturer reporting huge losses. The recession has hit almost every industry to some degree, but possibly one of the worst instances is that of British media. More than 4000 jobs in media have been lost since July 2008.The magazine industry in particular, has always been fickle to some extent, but none more so than the present. So with budgets tighter than ever, where does that leave consumer magazines, namely the women’s glossy magazine sector? Cosmopolitan has been one of the top‐selling women’s magazines for years, but how do they fair in today’s economic climate and what are they doing to remain on top? On 26th February 2009, NatMag’s, the owner of Cosmopolitan, announced they were to slash 15 per cent of its UK workforce, close to 100 jobs, in an attempt to reduce its cost base and meet the challenge of the tough economic climate.
  • Abstract Managing an Information Explosion

    Abstract Managing an Information Explosion

    ABSTRACT MANAGING AN INFORMATION EXPLOSION: CIVILIAN ADMINISTRATION AND THE ARMY OF LOUIS XIV, 1661-1701 Robert Fulton, PhD Department of History Northern Illinois University, 2016 Dr. Brian Sandberg, Director This dissertation examines the operations of the civilian administration of the War Department in early modern France during the reign of Louis XIV. Specifically, it analyzes the documents that represent a wide variety of information types which circulated within the War Department’s administrative networks. I connect these sources and their significance to the work of a new group of civilian agents, the premier commis, and utilize them to infer in what manner they were able to effectively manage a rapidly increasing volume of information materials and to influence state development in a profound manner. This examination found these information sources to be increasing not only in volume but in sophistication and standardization, reflecting a growing sense of professionalism and specialization within the civilian administration. In this endeavor, the premier commis operated within the bureaux to continuously manage administrative operations and workloads, progressively constructing an information state between the 1670s and the 1690s. The premier commis repeatedly struggled with rapid and increasing information flows, while crafting regular and systematic methods of managing and ordering the massive amounts of information that circulated within War Department networks. Their efforts to manage the diverse logistical needs of French armies resulted in growing administrative power which reflected a transformation to administrative governance in France. i NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY DE KALB, ILLINOIS AUGUST 2016 MANAGING AN INFORMATION EXPLOSION: CIVILIAN ADMINISTRATION AND THE ARMY OF LOUIS XIV, 1661-1701 BY ROBERT FULTON ©2016 Robert J.

    The Fellows of the American Bar Foundation

    THE FELLOWS OF THE AMERICAN BAR FOUNDATION 2011 Chair 2011-2012 Doreen D. Dodson Chair – Elect Myles V. Lynk Secretary Don Slesnick The Fellows is an honorary organization of attorneys, judges and law professors whose profes- sional, public and private careers have demonstrated outstanding dedication to the welfare of their communities and to the highest principles of the legal profession. Established in 1955, The Fellows encourage and support the research program of the American Bar Foundation. The American Bar Foundation works to advance justice through research on law, legal institutions, and legal processes. Current research covers such topics as end-of-life decision making, the value of early childhood education, how lawyers in public interest law organizations conceptualize and pursue their goals, what people think of the civil justice system against the backdrop of the politics of tort reform and the changes in the law that have resulted from the tort reform movement, and the factors that play a psychological role in laypersons’ decisions about justice and responsibility.
