Keithian politics no longer had any significance; the old coalition which had gathered around the fiery and independent Governor ceased to exist almost with his departure for England in 1728. Only five of his supporters were returned to the legislature in 1729, and by the following year but three remained.2 The issues which created the controversies during the 1720's were already passe. The old leadership either died off, or gave up its positions of power, and in turn was supplanted during the next decade by a group of talented and younger men—Benjamin Franklin, Isaac Norris II, Israel Pemberton, Jr., William Allen, and James Hamilton.3 While party organization may have been more advanced in Penn- sylvania than in any other colony, it still depended upon personal relationships with control in the hands of a few wealthy families.

  • Keralda/India) Ecology and Landscape in an Isolated Indian National Park Photos: Ian Lockwood
    IAN LOCKWOOD Eravikolam and the High Range (Keralda/India) Ecology and Landscape in an Isolated Indian National Park Photos: Ian Lockwood The southern Indian state of Kerala has long been recognized for its remarkable human development indicators. It has the country’s highest literary rates, lowest infant mortality rates and highest life expectancy. With 819 people per km2 Kerala is also one of the densest populated states in India. It is thus surprising to find one of the India’s loneliest and least disturbed natural landscapes in the mountainous region of Kerala known as the High Range. Here a small 97 km2 National Park called Eraviku- lam gives a timeless sense of the Western Ghats before the widespread encroachment of plantation agriculture, hydro- electric schemes, mining and human settlements. he High Range is a part of the Western Ghats, a heterogeneous chain of mountains and hills that separate the moist Malabar and Konkan Coasts from the semi-arid interiors of the TDekhan plateau. They play a key role in direct- ing the South Western monsoon and providing water to the plateau and the coastal plains. Starting at the southern tip of India at Kanyakumari (Cape Comorin), the mountains rise abruptly from the sea and plains. The Western Ghats continue in a nearly unbroken 1,600 km mountainous spine and end at the Tapi River on the border between Maharashtra and Gujarat. Bio- logically rich, the Western Ghats are blessed with high rates of endemism. In recent years as a global alarm has sounded on declining biodiversity, the Western Ghats and Sri Lanka have been designated as one of 25 “Global Biodiversity Hotspots” by Conservation Inter- national.

  • The Four Iron Steamships of William Alexander Lewis Stephen Douglas – Hamilton
    The Four Iron Steamships of William Alexander Lewis Stephen Douglas – Hamilton. KT 12th Duke of Hamilton, 9th Duke of Brandon, 2nd Duke of Châtellerault Second Edition. 1863 Easton Park, Suffolk, England (Demolished 1925) Hamilton Palace, Scotland (Demolished 1927) Brian Boon & Michel Waller Introduction The families residing in the village of Easton, Suffolk experienced many changing influences over their lives during the 92 year tenure of four generations of the Hamilton family over the 4,883 acre Easton Park Estate. The Dukes of Hamilton were the Premier Dukedom of Scotland, owning many mansions and estates in Scotland together with other mining interests. These generated considerable income. Hamilton Palace alone, in Scotland, had more rooms than Buckingham Palace. Their fortunes varied from the extremely wealthy 10th Duke Alexander, H.M. Ambassador to the Court of the Czar of Russia, through to the financial difficulties of the 12th Duke who was renowned for his idleness, gambling and luxurious lifestyle. Add to this the agricultural depression commencing in 1870. On his death in 1895, he left debts of £1 million even though he had previously sold the fabulous art and silver collections of his grandparents. His daughter, Mary, then aged 10 inherited Easton and the Arran estates and remained in Easton, with the Dowager Duchess until 1913 when she married Lord Graham. The estates were subsequently sold and the family returned to Arran. This is an account of the lives of the two passenger paddle steamers and two large luxury yachts that the 12th Duke had built by Blackwood & Gordon of Port Glasgow and how their purchase and sales fitted in with his varying fortunes and lifestyle.

Box 197, Caulfield East, Victoria 3145, Australia, Tel: 61 3 9903 1081, Fax: 61 3 9903 2205 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Bourdieu’s concepts of social fields and social power provide a theoretical basis for arguing that the information systems (IS) field is engaged in an ongoing struggle with other disciplines for prestige and support. While IS has produced a considerable amount of high quality theory and research, it is by no means clear that this is understood by either the academy or the general public. It is argued that the discipline’s profile could be raised by the development and promulgation of a general theory of IS, similar in scope to the general theories found in other disciplines such as sociology. The political and cultural value of developing such a theory is discussed, as are a range of issues it is recommended that it should address. INTRODUCTION item of “cultural capital” (Bourdieu and Wacquant 1992) contributing to its public It is proposed in this paper that the image. An influential theory is implicitly a development of a prestigious general theory in statement that the field from which it the information systems (IS) field is possible, originates is a source of marketable ideas, and opportune, and would be of considerable worthy therefore of interest and respect benefit to the field.
