Aileen Ackland, Pamela Abbott, Peter Mtika - University of Aberdeen Missives from a front line of global literacy wars This presentation will analyse the tensions inherent in a Scottish/Rwanda collaborative project to develop a social practices approach to adult literacies education in the Western Province of Rwanda. A social practices perspective acknowledges the significance of social purpose, place and power to literacies. It counters the traditional view of literacy assumed within international development goals which focus on reducing national rates of ‘illiteracy’.

    Political Change and Scottish Nationalism in Dundee 1973-2012 Thomas A W Stewart PhD Thesis University of Edinburgh 2019 Abstract Prior to the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish National Party’s strongest bastions of support were in rural areas. The sole exception was Dundee, where it has consistently enjoyed levels of support well ahead of the national average, first replacing the Conservatives as the city’s second party in the 1970s before overcoming Labour to become its leading force in the 2000s. Through this period it achieved Westminster representation between 1974 and 1987, and again since 2005, and had won both of its Scottish Parliamentary seats by 2007. This performance has been completely unmatched in any of the country’s other cities. Using a mixture of archival research, oral history interviews, the local press and memoires, this thesis seeks to explain the party’s record of success in Dundee. It will assess the extent to which the character of the city itself, its economy, demography, geography, history, and local media landscape, made Dundee especially prone to Nationalist politics. It will then address the more fundamental importance of the interaction of local political forces that were independent of the city’s nature through an examination of the ability of party machines, key individuals and political strategies to shape the city’s electoral landscape. The local SNP and its main rival throughout the period, the Labour Party, will be analysed in particular detail. The thesis will also take time to delve into the histories of the Conservatives, Liberals and Radical Left within the city and their influence on the fortunes of the SNP.

Nanetti). Published by Princeton University Press, the book's central thesis is that social capital is key to high institutional performance and the maintenance of democracy. The authors studied the performance of twenty regional Italian governments since 1970, which were similar institutions but differed in their social, economic and cultural context. They found that regional government performed best, holding other factors constant, where there were strong traditions of civic

  • For Fairness in Dundee
    For Fairness in Dundee A Strategy for Challenging Poverty and Promoting Inclusion in Dundee June 2012 2 1 For Fairness in Dundee Dundee presents two faces to the people who live here and to the rest of the world. One is of a modern, vibrant city which has undergone a remarkable transformation. Already we have seen the growth of our cultural facilities, innovation in the developing bio-science and digital media industries and the reinvention of the city centre as a real tourist and shopping destination. Building on this is the prospect of a new era of manufacturing offered by renewable energy production and the long term jobs that go with it. Perhaps even more significantly, progress continues towards the creation of V & A Dundee in a building and location which could radically alter the way the city is perceived across the UK and abroad. At the same time there is another Dundee where levels of poverty and deprivation make every day life a struggle for individuals, families and communities across the city; where too many people are more likely to have insufficient income, lower life expectancy, experience higher levels of crime, greater unemployment and lower educational attainment; where children are less likely to achieve positive life outcomes. The Dundee Partnership believes that every person and family in Dundee wants, and should have the right, to share in the success we achieve as a city. Everyone should have the right to be heard and valued and to participate fully in our community and that no one should be denied that because of their economic status.

This is part of its Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS). All IACS elements, including LPIS, are subject to checks by both national and EC auditors.
