Overview: Compares legislative oversight and accountability in South Africa and Nigeria.Discusses the role of institutions in accountability and good governance.Provides insights into remedies for accountabilitThis book examines the problem of accountability in two African political systems, South Africa and Nigeria. Despite the principle of separation of powers and the doctrine of checks and balances among the institutions of governance, a burgeoning governance crisis stifles the potential of accountability and good governance. Legislative oversight in the two countries remains largely ineffe

Overview: This monograph attempts to clarify one significant but much neglected aspect of Peirce‘s contribution to the philosophy of science. It was written in 1963 as my M. A. thesis at the Uni­ versity of Illinois. Since the topic is still neglected it is hoped that its pUblication will be of use to Peirce scholars. I should like to acknowledge my indebtedness to Dr. Max Fisch who broached this topic to me and who advised me con­ tinuously through its development, assisting generously with his own insights and unpublished Peirce manuscripts.

Overview: Die Rolle der politischen Theorie in Deutschland - eine ÜbersichtDieser Band gibt eine Übersicht über neuere Entwicklungen der Politischen Theorie und ihr Verhältnis zur Politikwissenschaft. Seit der Einführung vieler neuer Studiengänge im Zuge des Bologna-Prozesses beginnt sich nicht nur das Profil der Politikwissenschaft als Disziplin zu verändern, auch das Verhältnis zu ihren Teildisziplinen ist in Bewegung geraten. Politische Theorie und Ideengeschichte müssen ihre Rolle überdenken und teilweise neu definieren. Der Band unternimmt dies in inhaltlicher, disziplinärer und konzeptio

Overview: The Reason for this Volume If we were to judge the seriousness of a psychosocial problem by the attention that the popular media give to it, we would have to conclude that the modem world is in the midst of an epidemic of pedophilic child sexual abuse. One can scarcely go more than a few weeks in any large metropolitan area without reading about one of the community‘s upstanding citizens discovered to have been sexually involved with children or adolescents. The attention that the popular media give this topic is paralleled by the attention that it receives in the social sciences, wh

Overview: Extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is a widespread but in­ completely understood process. Many studies have been con­ ducted with the aim of discovering the general mechanisms which produce and maintain the ECM in tissues. Wound re­ pair in animals has always been a suitable "tool" for exploring these mechanisms. In such a pathologic event, the different components of the healing system can be readily observed since they are exaggerated. It has now become clear that the regulation of protease/inhibitor activity is one of the most im­ portant steps in maintaining the integrity of ECM

Overview: The definitions of fatherhood have shifted in the twenty-first century as paternal subjectivities, conflicts, and desires have registered in new ways in the contemporary family. This collection investigates these sites of change through various lenses from popular culture - film, television, blogs, best-selling fiction and non-fiction, stand-up comedy routines, advertisements, newspaper articles, parenting guide-books, and video games. Treating constructions of the father at the nexus of patriarchy, gender, and (post)feminist philosophy, contributors analyze how fatherhood is defined
