Canada's Labour Market Training System

Canada's Labour Market Training System
Bob Barnetson, "Canada's Labour Market Training System "
English | ISBN: 1771992417 | 2018 | 184 pages | EPUB | 1063 KB
How does the current labour market training system function and whose interests does it serve? In this introductory textbook, Bob Barnetson wades into the debate between workers and employers, and governments and economists to investigate the ways in which labour power is produced and reproduced in Canadian society. After sifting through the facts and interpretations of social scientists and government policymakers, Barnetson interrogates the training system through analysis of the political and economic forces that constitute modern Canada. This book not only provides students of Canada's division of labour with a general introduction to the main facets of labour-market training - including skills development, post-secondary and community education, and workplace training - but also encourages students to think critically about the relationship between training systems and the ideologies that support them.

Can Labour Win The Hard Road to Power

Can Labour Win The Hard Road to Power
Patrick Diamond, "Can Labour Win?: The Hard Road to Power"
English | ISBN: 1783485442 | 2015 | 82 pages | EPUB | 1000 KB
After its disastrous defeat in 2015, Labour is at grave risk of throwing away the 2020 general election. The party has to understand why it suffered such a devastating defeat and learn crucial lessons if it is to recover. The reasons appear obvious enough: the British public did not believe that Ed Miliband was a credible prime minister; people feared that a Labour government would plunge the British economy back into chaos; and they perceived that the party was out of touch on issues like immigration and welfare. Labour was not just narrowly defeated in 2015, it was overwhelmingly rejected by an electorate who no longer trust the party.

Can Academics Change the World An Israeli Anthropologist's Testimony on the Rise and Fall of a Protest Movement on Cam

Can Academics Change the World An Israeli Anthropologist's Testimony on the Rise and Fall of a Protest Movement on Cam
Moshe Shokeid, "Can Academics Change the World?: An Israeli Anthropologist's Testimony on the Rise and Fall of a Protest Movement on Cam"
English | ISBN: 1789206987 | 2020 | 214 pages | EPUB | 1070 KB
Moshe Shokeid narrates his experiences as a member of AD KAN (NO MORE), a protest movement of Israeli academics at Tel Aviv University, who fought against the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories, founded during the first Palestinian Intifada (1987-1993). However, since the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin and the later obliteration of the Oslo accord, public manifestations of dissent on Israeli campuses have been remarkably mute. This chronicle of AD KAN is explored in view of the ongoing theoretical discourse on the role of the intellectual in society and is compared with other account of academic involvement in different countries during periods of acute political conflict.

As with their first, hugely successful book they have concentrated on baking and, while there are still many cakes and sweet things, they have also included some savory bakes, breads, tarts and pies. There is even a chapter on gluten-free bakes, including recipes for desserts, cake and tarts. Also like Cakes, this book is a selection of the recipes they use weekly in baking for their shop in Cape Town, Cakebread, but they have adapted their methods to make for easy-to-use recipes that can be baked in the home kitchen. Gone are all the needless, cheffy, making-it-harder-than-it-should-be bits.

Buried in Shades of Night Contested Voices, Indian Captivity, and the Legacy of King Philip's War

Buried in Shades of Night Contested Voices, Indian Captivity, and the Legacy of King Philip's War
Billy J. Stratton, George E. Tinker, Frances Washburn, "Buried in Shades of Night: Contested Voices, Indian Captivity, and the Legacy of King Philip's War"
English | 2013 | pages: 224 | ISBN: 0816530289 | PDF | 2,0 mb
The captivity narrative of Mary Rowlandson, The Soveraignty and Goodness of God, published in 1682, is often considered the first "best seller" to be published in North America. Since then, it has long been read as a first-person account of the trials of Indian captivity. After an attack on the Puritan town of Lancaster, Massachusetts, in February 1676, Rowlandson was held prisoner for more than eleven weeks before eventually being ransomed. The account of her experiences, published six years later, soon took its place as an exemplar of the captivity narrative genre and a popular focal point of scholarly attention in the three hundred years since.
