Abstract:
AbstractThe Radzinowicz Library is the specialist criminology library of the Institute of Criminology, a research and teaching department of the University of Cambridge. As Stuart Stone explains, it is the premier academic criminology collection in the United Kingdom and indeed it is one of the major collections in this subject in the world. The library primarily serves the Institute and the University but also the wider community of criminal justice researchers, many of whom are regular visitors. In common with other libraries, financial pressures are a continuing concern, especially because of the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. Outreach and engagement with organisations outside academia add to the distinctive characteristics of the library.

Abstract:
If I may freely paraphrase Lady Bracknell (in The Importance of Being Earnest), to deliver an inaugural lecture one year after arrival in Cambridge seems unfortunate; to deliver it after being in post for two years looks like carelessness. Yet, as those from the Institute of Criminology will know, there is a particular reason for this timing. This month marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the University's postgraduate course in criminology, and I was myself a student on that first course, back in 1961. For me, therefore, there is a special personal satisfaction that this lecture is immediately to be followed by our formal celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the course.

Abstract:
Bibliography: leaves 62-66.
In order to assist honours students and researchers in the Criminology Department at theUniversity of Cape Town to fully utilise resources available through the Internet and other online databases, an online electronic research skills tutorial was developed and implemented. The aim of this research is to assess whether this tutorial is a useful and efficient method of imparting information literacy skills and assisting users to use the rich array of information available electronically. The concept of information literacy is reviewed internationally and in South Africa, in order to place this research within this framework. Concepts of benchmarking and best practice are examined to assess whether the tutorial meets these criteria. Internet trainer certification is studied as well as the importance of linking information tutorials to specific subjects and integrating them with the curriculum. In developing and implementing this tutorial, other information literacy initiatives and Internet tutorials were examined to provide background information and to inform the construction of the tutorial. Initiatives at the University of Cape Town were explored to avoid duplication and overlap and to build on prior training of students and researchers. The practical component of this research reviews the implementation of the tutorial with 13 participants. The participants completed pre-tutorial assessment questionnaires, using open and closed questions, to assess their knowledge and skills. The questionnaire responses were scored on a scale of I to 5 and represented in graphical form. The participants completed the online tutorial, which introduced important sites for criminologists that can be found on the Internet as well as in other electronic databases, and explored how to use the Internet to support research. The tools and techniques to improve Internet searching were reviewed with the participants, as was the critical thinking needed to evaluate information found on the Internet. A post-course evaluation was completed to assess whether the participants had found this a useful experience, whether the course was at an appropriate level and whether the objectives of the course had been achieved. A self-administered follow-up evaluation questionnaire was completed 2 to 3 months after completion of the tutorial in order to assess whether the information contained in the tutorial had been used, sites visited and whether in retrospect, the participants found the experience a useful one. The findings of these questionnaires are analysed and presented in graphical form on a scale of 1 to 5. The analysis of the research shows that the participants of this case study found the experience of doing thc online research skills tutorial a valuable one and that it assisted in developing new skills and in providing a window into all the electronic resources available in their field.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter explores how asylum caseworkers are socialised on the job and thereby acquire an institutional habitus. Decision-makers are disciplined, incentivised, compelled, but also “ideationally conditioned” (Gill in Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers 34 (2): 215–233, 2009) to think, act and feel in certain ways. The chapter argues that how organisational socialisation works can only be understood by taking three factors into account: what belonging to the office and to different “communities of interpretation” (Affolter, Miaz, and Poertner in Asylum Determination in Europe: Ethnographic Perspectives. Palgrave Macmillan, Cham, pp. 263–284, 2019; Wenger in Knowing in Organizations: A Practice-Based Approach. M.E. Sharp, Armonk, pp. 76–99, 2003) within the office means; how decision-makers acquire, and are taught, the necessary Dienstwissen (Weber in Economy and Society. University of California Press, Berkeley, 2013 [1978]) for carrying out their tasks; and the accountability decision-makers feel towards other actors: peers and superiors, but also politicians, the media and “the public”. Together these aspects of organisational socialisation shape what decision-makers come to perceive as “normal” and “appropriate” practices. Through becoming members of the office, they develop a “socialised subjectivity” (Bourdieu and Wacquant in An Invitation to Reflexive Sociology. Polity Press, Cambridge, pp. 61–215, 1992) which, in turn, shapes their everyday decision-making practices.

Abstract:
Malcolm MacNaughtan Bowie (1943–2007), a Fellow of the British Academy, was appointed from an assistant lectureship at the University of East Anglia to one in the University of Cambridge in 1969. At Cambridge, he worked as a specialist in difficult poets in French beginning with ‘M’, particularly Henri Michaux and Stephane Mallarmé. These are writers of involuted complexity, to read whom both a sensitivity to how word play plays and to how French prosody in poetry or prose works were essential. These studies by Bowie were followed by work on mind-altering psychoanalysis: on Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan. He was the first director of the Romance Languages Institute, ran its vigorous seminar programme, and gave this a strong international profile by his invitations. At the University of Oxford, Bowie set up the European Humanities Research Centre, followed by an associated publishing venture, Legenda.

Abstract:
David Oates (1927–2004), a Fellow of the British Academy, was a distinguished Mesopotamian archaeologist whose name is closely associated with three of the best-known sites in the Middle East: Nimrud, Tell al-Rimah, and Tell Brak. He was a fellow of Trinity College at the University of Cambridge and Lecturer in Archaeology from 1957 to 1965, as well as Director of the British School of Archaeology in Iraq from 1965 to 1969 and Professor of Western Asiatic Archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology, University of London, from 1969 to 1982. In some ways, Oates was a product of the same tradition that had spawned eminent predecessors such as Sir Leonard Woolley and Sir Max Mallowan, but he brought to his task a keen appreciation of ancient languages and cultures, a sharp eye for the interpretation of ancient architecture, and a good understanding of political, social, and economic history and their relevance to archaeological enquiry. At Cambridge he had a brilliant career, reading classics and then archaeology, and graduating in 1948 with first-class honours.

This chapter turns to a more recent discovery in the human hippocampus, that of “concept” (or “grandmother”) cells. These grandmother cells are neurons that code for multiple aspects of the same person or object. The prediction that specific recognition cells were present in the brain had been made many years previously by vision scientists in Cambridge University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Especially relevant for an understanding of conscious mechanisms was the observation that merely thinking about a person or image could increase the impulse firing rate of the corresponding concept cell, even when the person or image was no longer being seen. At about the same time Jerzy Konorski, in Warsaw, had argued for the existence of similar neurons (“gnostic units”) serving a number of functions.

Abstract:
Armando Córdova of Stockholm University has found (Tetrahedron Lett. 2008, 49, 4209) that the organocatalyst 3a effected enantioselective conjugate addition of bromonitromethane 2 to the α,β-unsaturated aldehyde 1, to give the cyclopropane 4 as a ~ 1:1 diastereomeric mixture, both in high ee. Tomislav Rovis of Colorado State University has published (J. Org. Chem. 2008, 73, 2033) a detailed account of his development of catalysts such as 6, that effected enantioselective cyclization of 5 to 7 with excellent ee. Karl Anker Jørgensen of Aarhus University has employed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 4897) chiral quaternary salts derived from quinine that mediated the enantioselective addition of prochiral rings such as 8 to the allenoate ester 9 to give 10 with high ee. Organocatalysts have also been used to prepare more highly substituted cyclohexane derivatives. Guofu Zhong of Nanyang Technological University used (Organic Lett. 2008, 10, 2437) a quinine-derived secondary amine to catalyze the Michael addition of 12 to 11 followed by intramolecular aldol (Henry) reaction, to give 13. When Professor Jørgensen attempted (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 121) the related addition of 14 and 15 using catalyst 3a, he did not observe the expected Michael-Michael sequence. Rather, the initial Michael addition was followed by a Morita-Baylis-Hillman condensation, to give 16. The β-keto ester 16 existed primarily in its enol form. Organocatalysts can also be used to prepare polycyclic systems. Professor Jørgensen has found (Chem. Commun. 2008, 3016) that condensation of 14 with acetone dicarboxylate 17, again using catalyst 3a, gave the bicyclic β-keto ester 18. Matthew J. Gaunt of the University of Cambridge observed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 404) that for the cyclization of 19, catalyst 3b was superior to catalyst 3a. The power of desymmetrization of prochiral intermediates was illustrated by the report (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 6737) from Benjamin List of the Max-Planck-Institute, Mülheim of the cyclization of 21 to 23. Organocatalysts can also be used to prepare larger rings.

A 3-year collaboration program between the Institute of Microelectronics, National University of Singapore, and the University of Cambridge has been established with the following two objectives: (i) to establish a mechanics and physics-of-failure based board-level test methodology; (ii) to establish design guidelines and, ultimately, failure criteria for board level interconnect during drop/impact test. The following accomplishments have been achieved in the first year of the program: (i) the mechanics and physics of failure in a typical board-level test have been established (ii) the drop impact characteristics of 6 commercial portable products have been comprehensively surveyed; (iii) a weakness has been identified in the drop impact strength of SnAgCu solder alloy (acknowledged as the leading Pb-free solder candidate).

Abstract:
The Department of Health and the Design Council jointly commissioned a scoping study to deliver ideas and practical recommendations for a design approach to reduce the risk of medical error and improve patient safety across the NHS. The research was undertaken by the Engineering Design Centre at the University of Cambridge, the Robens Institute for Health Ergonomics at the University of Surrey and the Helen Hamlyn Research Centre at the Royal College of Art. The research team employed diverse methods to gather evidence from literature, key stakeholders, and experts from within healthcare and other safety-critical industries. Despite the multiplicity of activities and methodologies employed, what emerged from the research was a very consistent picture. This convergence pointed to the need to better understand the health care system as the context into which specific design solutions must be delivered. Without that broader understanding there can be no certainty that any single design will contribute to reducing medical error and the consequential cost thereof.

Plaza José María Planelles, 1. 03590 Altea E-mail: vicente.iborra@ua.es, zaragozasaura@gmail.com Keywords (3-5): Public space, historical urban evolution, tourism phenomena, urbanistic project, educational experience Conference topics and scale: City transformations The town of Altea (Alicante, Spain) has an important urban center that has historically been characterized by two contrasting situations: on one hand, the settlements located on the seaside elevations (Bellaguarda and the Renaissance Bastion) linked to the agricultural uses of the fertile valleys of the rivers Algar and els Arcs, and on the other hand the coastal developments, originally fishery, but nowadays with touristic uses on the maritime front. All these elements configure an urban nucleus that, due to its urban, architectural and landscape qualities, gives rise to one of the main tourist attractions of the region. However, the area described nowadays presents an important problem related to the use and habitability of public space, which is invaded by the presence of the private vehicle, even along the seaside, due to its touristic relevance. This article presents the results of an academic experience developed to study different possibilities of urban transformations for the municipality of Altea, taking as a project site the urban vacuum still conserved between the two situations previously described: the historical areas on the coastal elevations (Dalt) and new urban developments parallel to the seaside (Baix). This academic activity, performed by nearly 50 students from the University of Alicante, was developed in the context of the design course Urbanism 5 during the academic year 2015-16, thanks to the agreement signed between the Municipality of Altea and the University of Alicante.

Abstract:
Engineering design thinking combines concepts from heterogeneous sources like personal experience, colleagues, digital and hardcopy media. Despite this challenge, modes of thinking across levels of abstraction through multi-dimensional (spatial) representations are widely neglected in digital support systems. This paper aims to summarize lessons learned through years of experience with software tools that augment this visio-spatial conceptual thinking. This work cuts across disciplines to provide a needed, coherent starting point for other researchers to examine complex outstanding issues on a class of promising support tools which have yet to gain widespread popularity. Three studies are used to provide specific examples across design phases, from conceptual design to embodiment. Each study also focuses on an exemplar of diagrammatic software: the University of Cambridge Design Rationale editor (DRed), the Institute for Human Machine Cognition’s (IHMC) CmapTools and the Open University’s Compendium hypermedia tool. This synthesis reiterates how hypermedia diagrams provide many unique, valuable functions while indicating important practical boundaries and limitations. Future research proposed includes: a need to build more diagrammatic literacy into engineering practice, the need for more detailed studies with experts in industry and specific directions for refining the hypermedia diagram software interfaces.

Between territories: Incremental changes to the domestic spatial interface between private and public domains. Agnieszka Wir-Konas¹, Kyung Wook Seo¹ ¹Department of Architecture and Built Environment, Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne. Newcastle City Campus, 2 Ellison Pl, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 8ST. E-mail: agnieszka.wir-konas@northumbria.ac.uk, kyung.seo@northumbria.ac.uk Keywords (3-5): building-street interface, incremental change, micro-morphology, private-public boundary, territory Conference topics and scale: Urban form and social use of space In this paper we investigate incremental changes to the relationship between private and public territory on the micro-morphological scale of the residential building-street interface. The building-street interface lies on the edge between two distinctively different spatial domains, the house and the street, and provides a buffer which may be adjusted to aid the transition from private to public territory. The structure of the space impacts both domains: it provides a fit transition from the private dwelling to the public territory, creates a space for probabilistic encounters between inhabitants and strangers, and maintains the liveability of the public street. The aim of this paper is threefold: Firstly, we recognise morphological differences in the structure of the interfaces and the way the transition from private to public territory was envisioned and designed in different societal periods. Secondly, we study incremental changes to the interface, representing individual adjustments to the private-public boundary, in order to recognize common types of adaptations to the existing structure of the interface. The history of changes to each individual building and building-street interface was traced by analysing planning applications and enforcements publicly provided by the city council. Lastly, we compare the capacity of each building-street interface to accommodate incremental change to the public-private transition. We argue that studying the incremental change of the interface and the capacity of each interface to accommodate micro-scale transformations aids in the understanding of the complex social relationship between an individual and a collective in the urban environment.

Title: Spatial Structure in Chinese and Japanese Cities: A Comparative Study of the Supergrid and Superblock StructureAuthor Name: Xiao Fei Chen Affiliation: Faculty of Architecture Design and Planning, The University of Sydney Address: The Wilkinson Bldg G04, 148 City Rd, Darlington NSW 2008 Email Address: xche3951@Sydney.edu.au Mobile: 61 (02) 0450875226 Keywords: Supergrid and Superblock, Urban Morphology, China and JapanAbstract:Supergrids and Superblocks form an urban structure that extends across large areas of many Chinese and Japanese cities. The grid structures consist of wide roads at a city scale and define Superblocks, each with a network of narrower streets. My paper investigates the form-function interrelationships of these structures from morphological perspectives against a backcloth of theory that stresses an integrated network of streets as the prerequisite for a convenient and synergetic environment, with a specific focus on road/street networks, and mix and distribution of functional activities. Both qualitative and quantitative methods (including space syntax) are used to investigate four Superblocks from two pairs of Chinese and Japanese cities: Xi’an and Kyoto, and Nanjing and Osaka, from three aspects: integration, connection and interaction. Here I focus on the Nanjing-Osaka pair and the findings demonstrate clear but divergent patterns between the two cities, which are indicative of general differences between Chinese and Japanese Superblocks: there are very strong interrelationships between the street network and distribution of activities in the Japanese Superblocks, but these are much less evident in the Chinese Superblocks and this results largely from the extensive Chinese cultural practice of building walls around compounds. It reveals some structural disadvantages, leading to congestion of traffic and functional activities in some strategic locations in Chinese Superblocks. It also highlights some crucial qualities in the structures of many Japanese Superblocks that can provide inspiration for China’s future urban development and possibly for cities in other parts of the world.Reference:Alexander, C.

Abstract:
The morphological approach in the reading of the Territorial City Maria Gagliardi Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Barcelona, UPC. Av. Diagonal, 649. 08028 Barcelona E-mail: bissolati27@hotmail.it Keywords (3-5): Territorial city, territorial grid, accumulation process, relief of innovative elements. Conference topics and scale: City transformations The crisis of the traditional city, with its morphological characteristics, has been largely debated. The new urban phenomenon has almost always been described as antithetical; by contrary this article interrogates the possibility of reading a continuity between the traditional and the contemporary city. The article brings forth the concept that the territory can be described as an urban phenomenon result of a change of scale of the city, and offers the definition of the contemporary city as Territorial City (Città-Territorio). The article recovers this term introduced in the 70’s by the Italian morphological school, to emphasize the continuity with the European traditional morphological schools, taking advantage of its learnings, to compare the traditional city, with the contemporary city. The relevance of a morphological approach in the study of the contemporary Territorial City is discussed through an excursus of the main European schools’ contributions, with a particular schematization due to geographical areas. From the synthesis of these references emerges a basis for the definition of a Taxonomy organised around tree main elements that constitute the urban grid. Moreover, the article proposes a methodology for the analysis of the Territorial City that use the Taxonomy as reading tool; this method, illustrated through his experimentation on the Metropolitan Region of Barcelona, is of particular relevance towards the interpretation of the dynamics that have characterised the morphology of the current urban phenomenon, describing its aggregation logics and decomposing the historical-procedural continuum.
