Abstract:
AbstractThis article examines the construction of transcultural identity as it results from the process of border crossing in Tahir Shah’s The Caliph’s House: A Year in Casablanca (2007. London: Bantam Books). Whereas mobility is mostly characterized by the movement from north to south, The Caliph’s House describes an inverted motion from England to Casablanca in search for belonging. With his roots in Afganistan and historical ties with Morocco, Tahir Shah provides new narrative lines that delve into questions of alterity, mobility, and negotiating difference when crossing borders. With this in mind, I aim to show how alterity is refracted within the migrant’s identity. In so doing, I seek to clarify how this refraction helps in producing forms of selves that recognize all notions of silences and transform them metonymically into moments of conversation. With the help of Stephen Clingman’s theory on transnational literature, I will show that integration can be achieved successfully when difference is negotiated as part of the process of bordering.

Abstract:
I.V. Zholtovsky’s name as well as his architecture are imagined as fully associated with Italian influences. Meanwhile, by the beginning of the 20th century, Italy was by no means the most significant country of palladianism: this stylistic movement had been developed much more in England, in addition the first monograph on Palladio was published in London (1902). Having studied the biographical documents of Zholtovsky, one can conclude that the “English theme” in his life was no less significant than the “Italian”. Moreover, this relation was not limited to the sphere of political or cultural preferences, but strongly affected the architect professional activities. By the example of Zholtovsky’s first independent work, the Horseracing Society house in Moscow, one can trace how the creative credo of Zholtovsky-neoclassicism was formed; how from imitation of the British Victorian style, through the study of English architectural books, he came to his own version of neoclassic style (that was so far from the patriotic-nostalgic features of the pre-revolutionary decades of Russian architecture).

Abstract:
AbstractThis article considers the position of the Anglo-Portuguese architect Edward Reynolds (1926–59) in the British avant-garde of the 1950s. InModern Architecture: A Critical History(1980), Kenneth Frampton suggested that Reynolds's student projects at the Architectural Association in London ‘exerted a decisive influence on the development of Brutalism’. This article scrutinises that claim through the lens of Reynolds's interactions with his peers, including the so-called French House group, an informal network that included his tutors John Killick, James Gowan and Peter Smithson. Notable characteristics of Reynolds's work — chiefly the use of complex and irregular geometries to articulate patterns of activity and movement — are discussed, as are contemporary projects by other members of the group and trends such as the New Brutalism, biomimicry and the revival of pre-war strands of Modernism.

Abstract:
Drawing on primary and secondary source material from internal and external sources, the author traces the history of the International Bible Students Association, popularly known as Jehovah’s Witnesses, in Britain, from 1881 to the present. The work of colporteurs led to the establishment of early congregations (“ecclesias”) and a branch office in London. The release of the audio-visual production entitled The Photo-Drama of Creation had an important role in bringing the Bible Student movement into prominence. Controversies shortly arose within the London congregation, which were exacerbated by intervention by Paul S. L. Johnson from the Brooklyn headquarters. The transition of leadership to Joseph Franklin Rutherford, following Charles Taze Russell’s death in 1916, caused the organization to change from the federation of independent congregations to a unified Society. Discussion is given to the effects of the two World Wars, the attempts of Bible Students to gain exemption from conscription through legal channels, and the penalties incurred by the conscientious objectors. Jehovah’s Witnesses have continued to expand their activities, through house-to-house visiting which became expected of all members, through expansion of premises, and through increased public visibility. It is concluded that Jehovah’s Witnesses do not allow their principles to be shaped by popular attitudes and values, believing that the world is currently governed by Satan rather than Jehovah.

Abstract:
For this edition on environmental activism and the law, we examined how contemporary green political parties construe their role and relevance when many environmentalists including the Extinction Rebellion (XR) movement are bypassing parliamentary processes by taking to the streets as well as by proposing alternate forms of political engagement such as convening national citizens’ assemblies. This report features interviews conducted in early 2020 with Paul Manly (MP, House of Commons, Green Party of Canada); Chlöe Swarbrick (MP, New Zealand Parliament, Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand); and Jonathan Bartley (Co-leader of the Green Party of England and Wales, and councillor on Lambeth Council, London). Each interviewee responded to the same questions, which are detailed below. The interviews were conducted by Emma Thomas, XR Vancouver (interviewed Paul Manly); Trevor Daya-Winterbottom, FRGS, Associate Professor in Law, University of Waikato, and Deputy Chair of the IUCN Academy of Environmental Law (interviewed Chlöe Swarbrick); and Benjamin J Richardson, Professor of Environmental Law, University of Tasmania (interviewed Jonathan Bartley).

Abstract:
The aim of this article is to study the history of the formation of the Indian Parliamentary Committee (IPC) in the British House of Commons in 1893. To achieve this aim, the following objectives are envisaged: determination of reasons for establishing the IPC; analysis of the activities of the Indian National Congress and British liberals; analysis of the election campaign of Dadabhai Naoroji, which enabled him to get a seat in the House of Commons in 1892. The sources of the study are the pamphlets of the Indian National Congress members, which explain the need for Indian representatives to participate in the British Parliament; records of parliamentary hearings on the Indian issue; materials of the press describing the course of the election campaign of 1892 and the tasks of the Indian Committee in Parliament. In the course of the study, the author came to the following conclusions. The moderate branch in the Indian liberation movement considered the British Rule in India to be a progressive phenomenon in the Indian life. The defects of the British administration were due to the fact that the English people and Parliament did not understand the problems that the Indian population faced under the British Rule. The Parliamentary Committee dealing exclusively with the Indian issue could contribute to solving this problem. The main conductor of this idea in India was the National Congress, which, since its inception, began work on the formation of the IPC. In the late 1880s, an Indian political agency, which intensified attempts to organize an Indian committee in Parliament, was established in London. The interests of the Indians in the House of Commons at that time were defended by the Liberal MP Charles Bradlaugh. On the basis of the proposals of the National Congress, he prepared a bill on Indian councils, which came into force in 1892. Nevertheless, the creation of the Indian Parliamentary Committee became possible only in 1893, when Dadabhai Naoroji and William Wadderburn (founders of the British Committee of the Indian National Congress) were elected to the House of Commons as Liberal MPs. In general, the creation of the IPC was a progressive step in the development of the Indian liberation movement because the IPC gave the moderate nationalists and their British liberal supporters new tools of fighting for the rights of Indian subjects of the British Empire. The appearance of supporters of Indian reforms in Parliament was the evidence of the success of the IPC’s course of expanding political agitation in England, although it did not guarantee significant achievements in solving of the Indian question.

Abstract:
The article provides a new approach to study the oeuvre of an architect-neoclassicist Sir John Soane. This approach is concerned to an original interpretation of architectural order by Soane. Studying the metamorphosis of classical order in Soane’s architecture can help to understand the evolution and particularity of Soane’s individual style and also to define the specific place of this style in the neo-classicist movement. The article describes the development of the architectural order in England (since the 16th century to the beginning of the 19th century) and some specific features of the John Soane’s approach to the application of the architectural order system. The author analyzes different ways of interpretation of the order decoration in the work of John Soane, referring to such buildings as the John Soane House in London (the architect’s Museum now), the Dulwich Picture Gallery and the Bank of England, which was heavily rebuilt in the 20th century, but well-known in its original appearance — from drawings, photographs and descriptions. Other buildings of Soane are also examined in the article. The research is based on two methods — stylistic analysis (of particular buildings and its details) and analysis of historic and cultural aspects of Soane’s work (for better understanding of its theoretical and practical origins and the very reason of its genesis). The preliminary results of the research show that the transformation of classical order’s key elements is going hand in hand with the development of two different phenomena — the style of Soane itself and the situation in European culture of the second part of the 18th century when some significant movements (Neo-classicism, Gothic Revival, etc.) were developing, intersecting and interchanging with one another.

Abstract:
While doing research in Rhodes House Library I cam across a magnificently detailed description of parts of Kikuyuland in 1899 in the travel notebooks of Sir Halford John Mackinder. In this work Mackinder recounted his expedition's successful effort to be the first recorded group to ascend Mount Kenya. He is also one of the few travelers to leave a detailed account of this area for the nineteenth century. Furthermore, I discovered he had compiled a typescript of his notebooks clearly intended for possible publication. I did not compare the two closely at the time, as I relied on the notebooks, but when the African Studies Association announced a program to publish valuable unpublished primary sources, I immediately thought of Mackinder's work as being an important unpublished source for central Kenyan History. Here I discuss some of the implications of that thought that I have so far discovered.Mackinder (1861–1947) was one of the intellectual founders of modern political geography. He read both natural science and modern history as a student at Christ Church College, Oxford and went on to study law and qualify as a barrister in London. Mackinder also traveled widely in 1885 as part of the Oxford extension movement, lecturing on his ideas concerning a “new geography.” He believed that there was a growing rift between the natural sciences and the humanities and that geography could act as a bridge between the two. Physical geography could aid in understanding and explaining human activities.

Abstract:
The appearance of J. R. Oldfield's study, Popular politics and British anti-slavery, first published by Manchester University Press in 1995, now in paperback and therefore available for a student market, is much to be welcomed. The book is already well established in its field. As James Walvin writes in his preface, ‘Oldfield's research serves to clinch a simple but critical issue, namely that in the attack on the slave trade, popular revulsion was crucial’ (p. vi). Building on the work of earlier scholars, notably Seymour Drescher, Hugh Honour and Clare Midgley, Oldfield has demonstrated the ways in which the abolition movement turned to mobilizing public opinion after 1787 against the slave trade. At the centre of his investigation are the petition campaigns of 1788 and 1792. In analysing anti-slavery sentiment he successfully brings together approaches which focus on the eighteenth century as a period of expansion in commercial society and popular forms of politics with the agenda of historians of the slave trade and slavery. The abolition movement, he argues, provided the prototype for modern reforming organizations. It was peopled by practical middle-class men who understood the importance of the expansion of the market and consumer choice. It succeeded in capturing the imagination of those, predominantly middle-class men and women, who were increasingly interested in engaging in forms of public debate and who had the resources, both in terms of time and money, to do so. His book, he argues, is a piece of ‘thick description’ which offers ‘fresh insights into the increasingly powerful role of the middle classes in influencing Parliamentary politics from outside the confines of Westminster’ (p. 5).

Abstract:
Dr Edward (Ted) Irving, one of Canada's most respected geoscientists, died on 25 February 2014 in Saanichton, British Columbia, Canada, aged 86 years, leaving his wife, Sheila, children Katie, Susan, Martin and George, seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. After his early work as a student at Cambridge, England, he moved first to Australia and then to Canada. Over more than 60 years his scientific career was devoted mainly to the use of magnetic remanence recorded in ancient rocks to address fundamental geological questions. This seemingly simple technology proved to have remarkably many applications. Through his measurements and analyses of rock samples that recorded the magnetic field at the time of their formation, Ted was in the forefront of demonstrating that continental drift was real, at a time when the theory was out of favour. His meticulous work on rocks from many areas of the world was instrumental in showing how continents have been constantly moving, breaking up and colliding to make new larger continents and then breaking up again. He published more than 200 articles in international scientific journals. His reference text Paleomagnetism and its applications to geological and geophysical problems is still widely used. Applying remanent magnetism to study the motion of continents, and to other important geological problems, required careful analyses and interpretations. These included showing that the secular change in the Earth's magnetic field direction averaged over time aligns with its rotation pole, that the Earth's magnetic field has reversed its polarity at irregular intervals of a few million years, and that overprinting by re-magnetizations of rocks at different geological times can be separated by special laboratory techniques. Other contributions included important research in ancient climates, continental glaciations, the origin of mountain systems, and the relative displacements of parts of continents (terranes), especially the inferred large northward movement of parts of western North America, a conclusion that remains controversial. His most important results depended critically on his developing and using the best field sampling methods, laboratory instrumentation and procedures, and methods of data analysis. During his career he established world-class palaeomagnetic laboratories in Cambridge and Canberra, and in Ottawa and Victoria in Canada. Ted Irving had broad interests and knowledge. He was a serious gardener and horticulturalist and wrote several scholarly articles on plants, especially on the biogeography of rhododendrons and magnolias. He received numerous awards and medals and wide recognition, including election as a Fellow of the Royal Society of London, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union, an Honorary Fellow of the Geological Society of London, and a Foreign Associate of the US National Academy of Sciences. He also received many awards and medals from professional geological societies. Ted Irving received honorary doctorates from three universities, and the Order of Canada, in recognition of his outstanding scientific contributions.

Abstract:
This chapter offers an exploration of the Settlement House movement in a contemporary light. It uses the reflections of two practitioners and data from recently conducted focus groups on the community-based practice in two organisations in England during the period 1981 to 1995. The authors contend that community development and community social work were part of mainstream social work practice supported by local authorities and integrated into social work education but that this has largely been lost from both mainstream social work practice and education, taking place only in the voluntary sector. This chapter aims to document the value of social work within contemporary based community-based organisations where politics of place were central to the community-based practice which took place, thus carrying on the original ethos and ideas of the original Settlements.
