Overview: This book challenges the established wisdom regarding the balance of bargaining power between multinational corporations and host governments. Most theories, beginning with Raymond Vernon‘s, claim that the bargaining power of host states should increase over time. This work shows the opposite is true, at least for the automobile industry in the industrialized world. The reason for this is the growing mobility of production, which undercuts host states‘ bargaining positions. Capital mobility is thus central to both firm-state relations and IPE generally.978-1-349-25474-3978-1-349-2547

Overview: Author is a leading authority on religion in earlymodern Britain and Europe Controversial and revisionist study rejecting the longstanding set of inevitablist assumptions about the necessary hegemony In this new study, Michael Mullett examines the social, political and religious development of Catholic communities in England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland from the Reformation to the arrival of toleration in the nineteenth century. The story is a sequence from active persecution, through unofficial tolerance, to legal recognition. Dr Mullett brings together original research with the ne

Overview: Provides a unique overview of key work in this area.Includes supplementary material: Formal study of neuroscience (broadly defined) has been underway for millennia. For example, writing 2,350 years ago, Aristotle! asserted that association - of which he defined three specific varieties - lies at the center of human cognition. Over the past two centuries, the simultaneous rapid advancements of technology and (conse­ quently) per capita economic output have fueled an exponentially increasing effort in neuroscience research. Today, thanks to the accumulated efforts of hundreds of thousa

Overview: The book aims to present current knowledge concerning the propagation of electro­ magnetic waves in a homogeneous magnetoplasma for which temperature effects are unimportant. It places roughly equal emphasis on the radio and the . hydromagnetic parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. The dispersion properties of a magnetoplasma are treated as a function both of wave frequency (assumed real) and of ionization density. However, there is little discussion of propagation in a stratified medium, for of collisions is included only which reference may be made to Budden [1] . The effect in so

Overview: Challenging notions of what constitutes ‘normal‘ and ‘pathological‘ bodies, this ambitious, agenda-setting study theoretically reinvigorates disability studies by reconceptualising it as ‘studies of ableism‘ focusing on the practices and formations of able-bodiedness to uncover what it means to be ‘able‘ rather than ‘disabled‘.978-0-230-24518-1
