  • Canadian Universities, Academic Freedom, Labour, and the Left
    Canadian Universities, Academic Freedom, Labour, and the Left Michiel Horn IN 1934 THE UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTA classicist William Hardy Alexander used the pages of a recently established left-wing periodical to pose the question: "Will radical leadership emerge from our Canadian universities?" He answered in the negative. "The 'successful1 way of life in our universities may be equated wiUi the life of conformity both to doctrine and authority."1 Five years later, Alexander wrote in a Canadian Forum article that there was an agreeable future in academe for the acquiescent, those willing to fit in, but not for those of a critical disposition. Addressing himself to a fictional "young man contemplating an academic career," Alexander noted that capitalism sanctioned "a most painfully unbalanced distribu­ tion of the satisfactions and opportunities of life, to say nothin of the bare necessities." But it was dangerous for academics to point this out, he added, for in a state university it was "invariably described as Bolshevism," and in a privately endowed institution the situation was even worse. "An unflinching examination of the defeat sustained by the 'good life' in modern capitalistic conditions is regarded as a personal criticism of the benevolent persons who have established the academic foundation."2 Most professors wisely did not challenge the economic status quo, Alexander continued: they were easily replaced, and the principle of academic freedom offered them little protection. If such freedom had ever existed in the past, and he did not think it ever did "in things deemed by the ruling powers to be essential to the preservation of their power," it was now in decline.

  • Scotland's Global Empire Internals.Indd
    1 Genesis of an empire ‘We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilisation’ — Voltaire he Scottish Empire is, of course, illusory but the giants who spread their infl uence Tacross the globe off er tangible evidence that, had they had the mind to make it so, the saltire of St Andrew or the more fl amboyant lion rampant might have fl own across much of the civilised world and the atlases could have had a very diff erent hue. Th is, however, is not an empire of colonisation that diminishes or enslaves those whom it embraces. It involves neither the greed nor the ruthlessness so oft en inherent in empire-building. It is without condescension: an empire that breaks down barriers rather than creating ownership and, it can be claimed, enhances civilisation. Where would you plant the fl ag to claim sovereignty of ideas and philosophies? Th is is not a recital of the adventures of conquering heroes, although some are included. Th e empire I have in mind is more an outreach of ideas, the story of human endeavour in its many forms, pushing at the boundaries of the imagination and stretching the accepted order. It sweeps from the foothills of press freedom to the high plains of moral philosophy; from the oceans of ingenuity to the great rivers of physical courage; from the borderlands where determination meets initiative to the mighty mountain ranges of originality. It encompasses everything from the spirit of pioneering to the mystical qualities of leadership. It’s luckily not dependent on a seat of power and nor is it aff ected by the bruising arguments about Scotland’s place within the UK or as an independent state.

  • Rome: a New Planning Strategy
    a selected chapter from Rome: A New Planning Strategy by Franco Archibugi draft of a forthcoming book to be published by Gordon and Breach, New York an overview of this book CHAPTER 5: THE NEW STRATEGY FOR ROME 1. The "Catchment Areas" of the New "Urban Centres" 2. The Spatial Distribution of the Catchment Areas Table 2 - Catchment Areas of the Roman Metropolitan System (by thousands of inhabitants) 3. What decentralization of services for the new "urban centres"? 4. What "City Architecture"? 5. What Strategy for "Urban Greenery"? 6. Programmed Mobility 7. A "Metropolitan" Residentiality Notes References Further Reading THE NEW STRATEGY FOR ROME Authentic "polycentrism", therefore, is founded first of all on an evaluation of the "catchment areas" of the services that define it. The location of the centers and infrastructures of such services is a subsequent question (we would say "secondary" if with this adjective is meant not inferiority in importance, but rather a temporal and conceptual subordination). The polycentrism supported here in Rome means, first of all, a theoretical assignation of the potentiality of the catchment area of the Roman system to respective "units" of service that locationally assume the 1 role of realizing the objectives, reasserted by everybody numerous times of: integrating functions, improving accessibility, distances, traveling times, not exceeding the thresholds that have been indicated as "overloading". The locational problem of the new strategy therefore, is posed as a problem of not letting all the users participate in any function in any part of the system (the 2,8 million Roman citizens plus the by now recognized other 700 thousand citizens of the Roman "system"); but to functionally distribute the services in such a way as to not render "indifferent" (but on the contrary very..

Indicators such as level of education or number of household members appear to be geographically Mapping concentrated and sensitive to the distance from the city centre. The hypothesis that socio-spatial inequalities Periphery strongly influence economic performance and foster political instability has been subject to numerous empirical Rome investigations. Nevertheless, studies of specific urban contexts are not common. The absence of empirical ap- plications at this scale is probably due to the fact that variables used for analysing the economic and social performance of regions are difficult to quantify or inapplicable at the micro level. The purpose of this paperisto examine the spatial distribution of socioeconomic inequalities in the municipal territory of Rome and to explore the conditions that account for them. We will analyse the spatial distribution of urban quality indicators and socio-economic profiles with data from different sources, aggregated at the neighbourhood level. 1.

  • Sydney Institute of Agriculture Georgika
    Sydney Institute of Agriculture Georgika Edition 3, December 2020 Georgika - an online newsletter for those interested in academic aspects of the Ag sector From the Director Alex McBratney Please enjoy the latest edition of Georgika where we highlight our research work in agriculture, our people and our ongoing links to our alumni and collaborators and stakeholders in the agricultural sector. This has been an unparalleled year in many ways – a pandemic and record yields on our farms. Something to remember forever. Some of us think the sooner we get to a new one the better. I’d like to thank everyone for all their diligent hard work over such a difficult year – despite the challenges I believe we are in a stronger position institutionally and nationally in relation to our agricultural effort, commitment, and standing than we were at the beginning of the year. So, I wish you a wonderful break. Take it – enjoy it. Wishing you a very happy and successful 2021 – it’s got to be better than this one. Distant links to Sydney I have been to loads of agriculture conferences around the world and we are often reminded of the phenomenal pioneering crop-breeding work of the Iowan, Norman Borlaug and his many colleagues and co-workers that led to his being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970. Often this is stated as the first, and the only, Nobel prize in agriculture. In the nineteen twenties and thirties John Boyd Orr was Director of the Rowett Research Institute, famous for its work on animal nutrition.

  • Theoretical Physics in Poland Before 1939*
    THEORETICAL PHYSICS IN POLAND BEFORE 1939* 1. INTRODUCTION Science, and in particular the exact sciences, is not a part of culture easily accessible to people outside a small group of experts in the given field. There is, however, at least one aspect of science - which seems not to be always duly appreciated - that can be found equally interesting and worthy of attention by both specialists and non-specialists, scientists and non-scientists. It is the history of science, of scientific institutions and of the people of science. The main goal of this work is to describe the genesis and development of theoretical physics in Poland till 1939. In the sketch presented here I begin by recalling the history of physics as a whole in Poland up to the moment when theoretical physics became a distinct field. This happened in the late 19th century. From that moment on I will focus only on theoretical physics. On its substance, I find it reasonable to split the history of physics in Poland before 1939 into the following periods: - first: up to the establishment of the Commission for National Education; - second: up to the end of the 19th century; - third: up to World War II. It is probably no coincidence that the abovementioned stages correspond roughly to the stages we find in the history of science, and of physics in particular, in the rest of the world. One may say that the first period is that of the origins of modern physics as an empirical and rational science, crowned by the works of Newton and their development in the 18th century.
