Abstract:
Barter is an old process of doing business in the olden times without the use of money. It is surprising to note that, during this age of technology and borderless commercialization, barter is still useful and is even used with technology. The study aimed to document the barter system used by Cebuano farmers to find out if this business process is still profitable. Moreover, both the economic and social implications are recorded in relation to Filipino culture. The findings revealed three types of barter: (1) goods with goods; (2) goods with service; and (3) extended barter system. Moreover, t

The European goods which Africans consumed in the slave trade era tell us much about the African societies which imported them. However the study of the subject has involved much confusion through the application of fragmentary evidence from different societies in different stages of development towards the fashioning of broad hypotheses about the impact of the trade on West Africa as a whole. It is important therefore, when the evidence is available, to study each society and each group of African middlemen individually as well as within the wider context.The papers (especially the barter rec

According to classical Muslim marriage law, a woman needs her guardian's (viz. father's) consent to marry. However, the resulting marriage payment, the mahr, is hers. This split bill may lie behind the high rates of consanguineous marriage in the Muslim world, where country estimates range from 20 to 60 percent. Cousin marriage can stem from a form of barter in which fathers contribute daughters to an extended family bridal pool against sons' right to draw from the same pool. In the resulting system, women are robbed of their mahr and sons marry by guarding their sisters' “honor” and heeding c

In the aftermath of the so-called Marginal Revolution of the last end of the nineteenth century, economic analysis split into two branches. The first one was made up of economists who took as the methodological starting-point of their analyses the static or stationary state of a barter economy and considered that this basic framework was likely to be extended in order to account for monetary and financial considerations, as well as dynamics. However, in such a setting, the introduction of money, bank-credit, or any factor of growth did not substantially alter the features that are associated w

Abstract:
Abstract The education system of the province of Ontario, Canada ranks among the best in the world and has been touted as a model of excellence for other countries seeking to improve their education system. In a system-wide reform, leaders used a political and professional perspective to improve student performance on basic academic skills. The school system rose to renown after this reform which moved Ontario from a “good” system in 2000 to a “great” one between 2003 and 2010 (Mourshed M, Chijioke C, Barber M. How the world’s most improved school systems keep getting better, a report McKinsey & Company. Retrieved from https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/social-sector/our-insights/how-the-worlds-most-improved-school-systems-keep-getting-better, (2010)). Premier Dalton McGuinty arrived in office in 2003 with education as his priority and was dubbed the “Education Premier” because of this mandate. His plan for reform had two primary goals: to improve student literacy and numeracy, and to increase secondary school graduation rates. McGuinty also wanted to rebuild public trust that had been damaged under the previous administration. The essential element of Ontario’s approach to education reform was allowing educators to develop their own plans for improvement. Giving responsibility and freedom to educators was critical in improving professional norms and accountability among teachers (Mourshed M, Chijioke C, Barber M. How the world’s most improved school systems keep getting better, a report McKinsey & Company. Retrieved from https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/social-sector/our-insights/how-the-worlds-most-improved-school-systems-keep-getting-better, (2010)) and the sustained political leadership throughout the entire reform concluding in 2013 provided an extended trajectory for implementing and adjusting learning initiatives. The Ministry of Education’s Student Achievement Division, which was responsible for designing and implementing strategies for student success, took a flexible “learning as we go” attitude in which the reform strategy adapted and improved over time (Directions Evidence and Policy Research Group. The Ontario student achievement division student success strategy evidence of improvement study. Retrieved from http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/research/EvidenceOfImprovementStudy.pdf, (2014)). This chapter will discuss influences on the reform design and key components of strategies to support student and teacher development and build a relationship of accountability and trust among teachers, the government and the public. The successes and shortcomings of this reform will be discussed in the context of their role in creating a foundation for the province’s next steps towards fostering twenty-first century competencies in classrooms.

Abstract:
Abstract Chapter 18 studies Gardner’s reflections on contract and contractualization in order to evaluate the transfer theory of contract on which he implicitly relied. Gardner’s elaboration of the implications of transfer theory is convincing. But unlike Gardner, the chapter refuses to take transfer theory for granted. Transfer theory may nicely fit contracts that follow the model of an extended barter, but this is a particular and not particularly happy view of contract. Transfer theory is particular because it ill-fits a significant subset of contract law and the practice of contracting. Transfer theory is also not a particularly happy view of contract, and not only because its implementation would curtail law’s support of many human endeavors. Gardner’s critical insights are particularly significant here. The contrast to the alternative, autonomy-enhancing view of contract—referred to here as “liberal contract”—could not be sharper. Indeed, understanding contract as a joint plan, rather than transfer, and recognizing its reliance on reciprocal respect for self-determination, rather than for independence, radically transforms the role of “the contract part.” The implications of substituting the security-based view of contract with its autonomy-based counterpart suggest that while liberalism is indeed historically contingent, liberal values are indispensable for a just private law.

Abstract:
Abstract Bill Clinton is famous (or notorious) for promising to end welfare as we know it. Whether or not he succeeded, the boast expressed a tectonic shift in attitudes toward the state, possibly comparable to earlier “great transformations,” to use Polanyi’s phrase (1944). In societies with little or no division of labor, people produce most of the goods and services they consume (and barter for the rest). The market transforms this arrangement, enormously increasing the variety and quality of what can be enjoyed. Prior to the twentieth century, the primary method for redistributing goods and services to those who could not buy them was philanthropy: soup kitchens, poor houses, charity hospitals, foundling homes. The Great Depression and World War II changed all that. The British welfare state marginalized charity, assuming the obligation to end poverty or at least ameliorate its most conspicuous hardships. In the United States two decades later, Medicare and Medicaid severely undermined doctors’ feeling of responsibility to treat patients unable to pay. Governments that had begun to offer free primary and secondary education in the nineteenth century extended this to the university and added food, housing, transportation, communication, culture and recreation, unemployment compensation, health care, child care, and pensions. Almost simultaneously, however, this provoked a conservative backlash, driven in part by the fiscal crisis of the state, compounded by a taxpayer revolt. The only thing unusual about Clinton’s proposal was that he was a Democrat rather than a Republican. But his program differed little from Tony Blair’s “New” Labor or its contemporary socialist and social democratic counter-parts throughout continental Europe. The hegemony of the state—which seemed inevitable after World War II—may turn out to be little more than a brief interlude between the dominance of market and philanthropy before World War II and again today.

Abstract It is perhaps well known how Bartok eventually extended his trips to collect folk music in the territory of Greater Hungary, from the central Hungarian population to the Slovaks in the north and Romanians in the east.1 It is uncertain when he decided to extend his fieldwork to non-European regions. His intention to undertake a North African trip begins with his correspondence of 1911. On July 9, his letter to Mrs. Janos Bu itia from Munich states that he was en route to Paris, “in order to study Arab folk songs.”2 During his stay in Paris, July 11–23, he wrote to his wife, Marta, that he had already purchased an Arab-French dictionary and an Arabic grammar book but did not find any Arab folk song collections. In the same letter, he mentions the possibility of a journey to Africa: “It will be good for you to be carefully accustomed to the heat. Perhaps next summer we will go to such a place.”3

With the award, he was granted two years of study at the American Academy in Rome, with full lodging and a regular stipend. In this new environment, Barber continued to flourish, winning a Pulitzer traveling scholarship, which provided him with an extended stay at the American Academy, where his fSymphony in One Movement was composed. His uncle, Sidney Homer, proudly observed Barber’s triumphs as he read stories in the local newspaper about his music being performed in America. Uncle and nephew continued to communicate regularly through letters, exchanging queries, comments, and criticisms about Barber’s new compositions. Correspondence between Mary Bok and Barber flourished. Barber wrote many songs on emotionally charged poems, which seem biographically pointed. During the summer, he and Menotti lived in a game warden’s cottage in St. Wolfgang, Austria; there he began work on the String Quartet in B minor, the second movement of which later became the famous Adagio for Strings. Both the symphony and the String Quartet were premiered at the American Academy.

Abstract We seldom engage in long bursts of speech. In everyday communication, most phrases are of brief duration—often five or six seconds in length. Yet, in singing, we sustain phrases for much longer periods. It is not unusual to encounter high-lying sung phrases of more than ten seconds’ duration. Extended melismatic passages may reach at least fifteen seconds—one need think only of how often Mozart, Brahms, Verdi, Strauss, Duparc, and Barber pile up series of lengthy phrases. In short, the duration factor is more extensive in song than in speech.

Chapter 4 is a social history of the daily lives of the internees in INS camps and Army camps. It shows how many internees developed a sense of powerlessness as requests for a reevaluation of their situation went unanswered. The United States chose to extend prisoner of war protections in the 1929 Geneva Convention to enemy aliens in internment camps, allowing them to refer to the convention’s guarantees of safe and humane treatment and a good standard of living to redress complaints. This chapter shows how the internees exercised agency by finding ways to prove that they could be loyal American citizens, particularly by exhibiting a good work ethic. Although the balance of power still weighed heavily in favor of the government, the personal letters of internees tell a story of resiliency in the bleak setting of internment.

Abstract:
Barthes kept music separate from semiology, refusing to regard sounds as signs. By analysing music from the perspective of his body, he made audible its discreet phenomenologies. Many experiences, mental, psychic, and corporal, are at stake in performing and listening to music, and they played a subtle role in Barthes's thought. His listening and his musical practice led him to favour a relationship to his piano that permitted an imaginary appropriation and erotic play. Musical pulsation develops an intimate resistance to the law, one that combines repetition and perversion. Barthes highlights obsessive rhythms such as accents, syncopations, and off-beat rhythms. His writings on music, alluding to the language of the solitary body, emphasise erections and back-and-forth movements. He frequently over-interprets the performative indications on musical scores, such as the rubato or fingering, choosing to hear in them the sexual power of desire which leads the pianist towards a disseminated jouissance. By recording himself playing the piano, he extends this pleasure to enjoyment of his own rhythm as in an onanistic practice. From a theoretical perspective, musical practice allowed Barthes to bid his farewell to semiology and to maintain a subjective resistance, both philosophical and psychological, to social language.

Abstract Today, it is hard to see how a vital theatre and a necessary one can be other than out of tune with society—not seeking to celebrate the accepted values, but to challenge them. (Brook, The Empty Space (1968), p. 150) For about fifteen years after 1968, this challenge was extended throughout English theatre by a generation of writers including Edward Bond, David Hare, Howard Brenton, David Edgar, Howard Barker, John McGrath, and Trevor Griffiths. Most of them were strongly influenced by the emergence of the counter-culture in the late 1960s, by the new theatrical possibilities it encouraged, and above all by the ‘great watershed’, as Howard Brenton called it, of the near-revolution in Paris in the summer of 1968 (Trussler (ed.), p. 96).

Abstract:
Abstract Zinc rich primers provide the first line of defense in the fight against corrosion. Zinc epoxies compared to zinc silicates as coating solutions, are more flexible regarding curing conditions, they are easier to overcoat and they are less demanding to substrate preparation prior to application. A new generation of activated zinc rich primers with enhanced corrosion and mechanical properties has been successfully introduced in the market since 2014. This new technology delivers an efficient galvanic protection while providing a more effective barrier and inhibition effects to the coati

Abstract:
Abstract The carburization performance of plasma powder welded overlay ethylene pyrolysis furnace tubes has been evaluated in laboratory studies and plant trials. The results indicate that the PPW layer serves as a barrier to carburization of the tube base alloy by inhibiting carbon diffusion across the PPW/base material interface. The findings have a significant implication for the realisation of improved furnace performance and extended tube life. The carburization properties of the PPW overlayed tube have been quantified using a Larson-Miller approach and the benefits with respect to both e

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Low-viscosity oils could potentially act as self-healing barrier coatings, because they can readily flow and reconnect to heal minor damage. For the same reason, however, they typically do not form stable coatings on metal surfaces. Increasing viscosity helps to stabilize the oil coating, but it also slows down the healing process. Here, we report a strategy for creating highly stable oil coatings on metal surfaces without sacrificing their remarkable self-healing properties. Using lightweight microcapsules as thickeners, low-viscosity oil films immobilize on metal surfaces, which for

Abstract:
Abstract Historically, veil used as corrosion barriers for Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) equipment were made of glass or polyester (PET) fibers. These materials are acceptable in non-aggressive environments. But in aggressive environments, the glass or PET material properties tend to degrade, forcing the FRP equipment to be relined or replaced. Ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE) veil, by contrast, has demonstrated improved corrosion resistance and increased physical property retention for the corrosion barriers of FRP equipment. This should result in extended life of the FRP corros

Abstract Polyurethane (PU) coatings have a wide demand in industry and are used for the protection of metal, concrete and wood structures. However, PU coatings face challenges in regard to circular economy concepts. Although waterborne solvent formulation techniques as well as naturally derived monomers are compatible with a circular economy, PU coatings possess a strong barrier. In this study, a series of PU coatings were prepared using water as the main solvent, and the polyol and chain extender monomers used were prepared from natural resources.

Abstract:
Natural gas meters are often used to measure flows below their minimum design flow rate. This can occur because of inaccurate flow projections, widely varying flow rates in the line, a lack of personnel available to change orifice plates, and other causes. The use of meters outside their design ranges can result in significant measurement errors. The objectives of this project were to examine parameters that contribute to measurement error at flow rates below 10% of a meters capacity, determine the expected range of error at these flow rates, and establish methods to reduce measurement error i

Abstract:
Corrosion protection of installed transmission pipelines is mainly achieved by isolating the pipeline from the environment through the use of applied coatings. In areas where coating damage (e.g., holidays) exist, cathodic protection (CP), often by impressed current, is used to protect any bare areas. The amount of current output required for CP tends to increase as the damaged area (e.g. holidays, cracks) progresses over time. Although CP is necessary to protect any bare areas, it can also enhance coating disbondment. Likewise, the extent of cathodic disbondment (CD) could increase as the cur
