Relative Neglect (relative + neglect)
Selected AbstractsJim Bulpitt's Territory and Power in the United Kingdom and Interpreting Political Development: Bringing the State and Temporal Analysis Back InGOVERNMENT AND OPPOSITION, Issue 3 2010Jonathan Bradbury This article addresses the relative neglect of Territory and Power in informing the study of general state political development, both as a theoretical approach and in its application to the UK. It locates Territory and Power as a distinct contribution to two major schools of comparative research. The first section argues that Territory and Power provided an approach that was part of the intellectual turn during the 1980s to bring the state back into the analysis of politics. The second part argues that Territory and Power should be seen also as a contribution to the intellectual turn since the 1980s towards temporal analysis of political development. On these bases future researchers may find Territory and Power more accessible as a work that they can incorporate in their own research. [source] Client-centred therapy and family therapy: a review and commentaryJOURNAL OF FAMILY THERAPY, Issue 4 2001David Bott This article sets out to redress the relative neglect of the client-centred tradition within family therapy. A review of the limited literature emanating from both client-centred therapy and family therapy is provided, supported by a commentary. An argument is made for the relevance of client-centred principles in responding to contemporary concerns about disrespectful practice. [source] DEVELOPING CULTURALLY EFFECTIVE FAMILY-BASED RESEARCH PROGRAMS: IMPLICATIONS FOR FAMILY THERAPISTSJOURNAL OF MARITAL AND FAMILY THERAPY, Issue 3 2004William L. Turner Recently, some family scholars have developed greater sensitivity to the relative neglect of families of color in clinical and empirical research. Consequently, a proliferation of research elucidating many nuances of ethnic families has come to the forefront, containing a wealth of knowledge with useful implications for family therapists and other mental health providers. The findings of these studies hold enormously important implications for how family therapists can better engage and accommodate families of color in therapy: In this article we discuss some of the etiological and methodological issues associated with planning, conducting, and disseminating family-based prevention and intervention research programs with ethnic minority families. [source] Louis XII and the porcupine: transformations of a royal emblemRENAISSANCE STUDIES, Issue 1 2001N Hochner Louis XII, king of France (r. 1498,1515), inherited the emblem of the porcupine from his grandfather and maintained its symbolism of invincibility to particular effect in the circumstances of the Italian wars and the reconquest of the Milanese. However, the bellicose role of the porcupine within royal propaganda became increasingly less adequate to the image of a ,père du peuple' that Louis XII adopted in 1506. This study argues through detailed analysis of medals, royal entries, illuminated manuscripts, and other resource material that a certain disenchantment was felt towards the aggressive porcupine leading to its relative neglect in royal pageantry and iconography by the second half of Louis's reign. This shift is indicative of a deeper hesitancy between the image of paternal care , faithful to the duty of the Most Christian King , and the image of paternal care , faithful to the duty of the Most Christian King , and the image of glorious triumph , more suited to a bellicose warrior. The transformations undergone by the porcupine reveal the desire to redefine the very notion of the duty of kingship. [source] Management and Business Ethics: A Critique and Integration of Ethical Decision-making ModelsBRITISH JOURNAL OF MANAGEMENT, Issue 3 2003Dean Bartlett This paper critically reviews the literature relating to the management of ethics within organizations and identifies, in line with other authors, a gap between theory and practice in the area. It highlights the role of management (both as an academic discipline and from a practitioner perspective) in bridging this gap and views managers, with their sense of individual ethical agency, as a key locus of ethics within organizations. The paper aims to address the theory,practice gap by surveying the business ethics literature in order to identify, draw together and integrate existing theory and research, with a particular emphasis upon models of ethical decision-making and their relationship to work values. Such an endeavour is necessary, not only because of the relative neglect of management practice by business ethics researchers, but also because of the current lack of integration in the field of business ethics itself. The paper outlines some of the main methodological challenges in the area and suggests how some of these may be overcome. Finally, it concludes with a number of suggestions as to how the theory,practice gap can be addressed through the development of a research agenda, based upon the previous work reviewed. [source] Liberation, Feminism, and Development CommunicationCOMMUNICATION THEORY, Issue 4 2001H. Leslie Steeves This essay notes the relative neglect of considerations of both liberation and gender in the scholarship and practice of development communication. Liberation perspectives on development, grounded in religion and spirituality, argue for individual and collective empowerment, and therefore appear to offer consistency with feminist thought. In practice, it is unclear to what extent women are included or empowered in applications of liberation theology to development communication. This paper argues that the theory and practice of development communication would be strengthened by drawing on insights from both feminism and liberation theology. [source] | ||||||||||
