ADVERTISEMENTS iii ADVERTISEMENTS iii on active service- As the Pioneers and Manufacturers of Non-Skid Chains since 1902, it was inevitable that the National Emergency would place exceptional demands on the capacity of the Parsons Chain Company. Many thousand tons of Parsons Non-Skid Chains have been supplied to the Fighting Services and for A.R.P. work . thousands of tons have yet to be delivered as an essential contribution to the National Effort. Parsons manufacturing programme runs round the clock for seven days a week, and no effort is being spared to supply chains to give safe, sure grip on snow, mud, ice, sand and grass. Parsons Tyre Chains PARSONS CHAIN CO., LTD., WORCESTER ROAD, STOURPORT-ON-SEVERN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE ROYAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL. All contributions for The R.E. Journal from Officers on full pay should be forwarded to the Editor, as laid down in K.R. 547 (c) 1940, in duplicate if possible, together with a statement from the authority (if any) under whom the writer is serving, that such authority has no objection to publication. The Editor will then apply to the War Office for permission to publish. Articles written by officers serving in India must be submitted for permission to publish to the Commander-in- Chief in India before despatch to the Editor. Very few contributions concerning recent events have been received from officers on the Active list during the last eighteen months, but those received have proved most valu- able. Such articles enable other officers of less experience to visualize the conditions under which field engineering is carried out under existing war conditions, and give a clear picture of the numerous and unforeseen difficulties which arise on service through human failings, accident, enemy action, or under-estimating. It is realised that officers, when in the field or out training, cannot submit articles typed in duplicate as in peace time. The editing of an article received in the form of notes, and the re- production of rough drawings for the normal magazine form, can be done at the Secretary's office. Payment will be made for all articles accepted. Articles from those with experience on the following subjects would be very welcome:- Road Work. Bridging. Reconnaissance problems, including the use of air photography. Mining. Airfield Construction. Use of Mechanical Equipment. Works Problems, overseas and at home. Organization of work with native labour overseas. Demolitions. Airborne R.E. work. Engineer organization, including works in formations and units. Engineer Stores. Water Supply, Geology and Geophysics. Even though it prove impossible to pass all articles through the Censor's office for immediate publication, they will have great value after the war. Articles are none the less valuable because they raise matters which are controversial. The R.E. Journal is in no sense a text-book. THE ROYAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL VOL.

Abstract Immigration through Education: The Interwoven History of Korean International Students, US Foreign Assistance, and Korean Nation-State Building by Jane Jangeun Cho Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Kerwin Klein, Chair This dissertation identifies Korean international students as immigrants, as conduits of knowledge transfer, and as agents of change. Part of the American Cold War policy was to establish Korea’s higher educational institutions with a core group of US-educated people. Figuring prominently in this story is the US government’s use of foreign assistance as a diplomatic tool to build its influence abroad. The Korean government readily accepted the aid but imprinted its designs on the American blueprint to reflect its own goal of building a modern nation-state. American universities under contract with the US government assisted the redesign of key departments at Seoul National University (SNU) and the establishment of Korea Advanced Institute of Science (KAIS).

PRINTERS SANJIVAN PRESS AND ASSOCIATES PATNA, INDIA APPRECIATION In the fall of 1953, I was invited to Nepal to confer with the Ministry of Education officials on educational problems and potentialities in this country. I was asked to survey existing conditions and recommend a plan for the development of a national system of education. I countered the invitation with an offer to act as educa‐ tional advisor to a high‐level national education planning commission if such were appointed. I felt that such an assignment was a task for the leaders of Nepal, not for a foreigner. And the accomplishments of the Commission now stand as testimony to the soundness of this opinion. True, the members have made me feel that I am more a guest of Nepal than a foreigner; their hospitality, and that of all the Nepalese, has been over‐whelming.

  • Contemporary Art and the Politics of Ecology an Introduction
    Third Text, January, 2013 Vol. 27, Issue 1, 1–9, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/09528822.2013.753187 Contemporary Art and the Politics of Ecology An Introduction TJ Demos This special issue of Third Text, dedicated to contemporary art and the politics of ecology, investigates the intersection of art criticism, politico-ecological theory, environmental activism and postcolonial glo- balization. The focus is on practices and discourses of eco-aesthetics that have emerged in recent years in geopolitical areas as diverse as the Arctic, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Europe and Mexico. The numer- ous contributors address new aesthetic strategies through which current ecological emergencies – including but not limited to the multifaceted crisis of climate change – have found resonance and creative response in artistic practice and more broadly in visual culture. Numerous key questions motivated our investigation: If ecological imperatives are frequently invoked by governments, corporations and certain strands of environmental activism in the name of a post-political ‘green’ consensus for which nothing less than the life of the planet is at stake, how might critical art contribute to an imagination of ecology that addresses social divisions related to race, class, gender and geography in the North and South alike? How might the concept of biopolitics, as Downloaded by [University of Montana] at 11:12 03 April 2015 elaborated by figures ranging from Bruno Latour to Vandana Shiva, enable a rethinking of hitherto articulated discourses of eco-aesthetics,

  • The Cultural Impact of Science in the Early Twentieth Century
    In the early decades of the twentieth century, engagement with science was commonly used as an emblem of modernity. This phenomenon is now attracting increasing attention in different historical specialties. Being Modern builds on this recent scholarly interest to explore engagement with science across culture from the end of the nineteenth century to approximately 1940. Addressing the breadth of cultural forms in Britain and the western world from the architecture of Le Corbusier to working class British science fiction, Being Modern paints a rich picture. Seventeen distinguished contributors from a range of fields including the cultural study of science and technology, art and architecture, English The Cultural Impact of culture and literature examine the issues involved. The book will be a valuable resource for students, and a spur to scholars to further examination of culture as an Science in the Early interconnected web of which science is a critical part, and to supersede such tired formulations as ‘Science and culture’. Twentieth Century Robert Bud is Research Keeper at the Science Museum in London. His award-winning publications in the history of science include studies of biotechnology and scientific instruments.

    Dreaming The Theory. Selected writing by Rob La Frenais 2014-17 Manifesto For A Republic of the Moon. Wherever they are in the world, when humans and animals look up, they see the silvery disc of the moon, in one phase or another. It's nearly five decades since humans walked on the moon and we are surrounded by satellites and machines heading for Mars and other planets. But the nearest humans can get into space is to perch on the International Space Station. Sooner or later, we are going back to the moon, whether to mine it, to rehearse for a Mars mission or to just live there. But how will human activity there reflect what has happened on Earth since the last moon mission, to reflect the diversity and political and social changes that have happened since? Can artists imagine what it would be like to live on the moon? Artists are already taking part in many scientific endeavours, becoming involved in emerging fields such as synthetic bioloogy, nanotechology, ecological remediation and enthusiastically participating in citizen science. There are already artists in Antarctica. It should be inevitable that artists will sooner or later accompany the next visit by humans to the moon. But why wait? Artists are already imagining how it would be to live on the moon. In a provocative pre-emption of the future a group of artists have already declared in this exhibition a Republic of the Moon, here on Earth, with diverse objectives. They range from Liliane Lijn's desire to project the word 'she' on the moon to Agnes Meyer- Brandis breeding and imprinting a new type of Moon Geese.
