![]() Michael Smith, "Protest Policing and Human Rights " English | ISBN: 0367749688 | 2022 | 274 pages | PDF | 32 MB This book examines protest policing and the toolbox of options available to police commanders in response. The right to peacefully protest is intrinsic to democracy and embedded in British history and tradition. The police are responsible for managing public order and facilitating peaceful protest and this has not been without criticism. On occasions, the police have found themselves in opposition to protest groups and there have been incidents of disorder as a result. In response, the development of Police Liaison Teams in the UK has presented the police with a gateway for dialogue between themselves and those involved in protest. ![]() Charles Lockhart, "Protecting the Elderly: How Culture Shapes Social Policy" English | 2001 | ISBN: 0271021306, 0271022892 | PDF | pages: 288 | 2.0 mb Building on the pioneering work of anthropologist Mary Douglas and political scientist Aaron Wildavsky, this book develops and applies "grid-group" theory to show how political culture can be used to explain decisions about social policy and how, as an interpretive approach, this theory complements the now more dominant "rational choice" and "institutionalist" models. ![]() Prosthetics and Assistive Technology in Ancient Greece and Rome English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009168398 | 225 Pages | PDF | 4 MB This is the first comprehensive study of prosthetics and assistive technology in classical antiquity, integrating literary, documentary, archaeological, and bioarchaeological evidence to provide as full a picture as possible of their importance for the lived experience of people with disabilities in classical antiquity. The volume is not only a work of disability history, but also one of medical, scientific, and technological history, and so will be of interest to members of multiple academic disciplines across multiple historical periods. The chapters cover extremity prostheses, facial prostheses, prosthetic hair, the design, commission and manufacture of prostheses and assistive technology, and the role of care-givers in the lives of ancient people with impairments and disabilities. Lavishly illustrated, the study further contains informative tables that collate the aforementioned different types of evidence in an easily accessible way. ![]() Proposal Writing for Business Research Projects by Peter Samuels English | 2022 | ISBN: 1032227214 | 136 pages | True PDF | 5.44 MB ![]() Project Moon Dust: Beyond Roswell by Kevin Randle English | March 23, 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B09WDWVRB4 | 343 pages | EPUB | 0.40 Mb This book, by a US military veteran and UFO expert, explains how US authorities handled UFO reports in the 1940s and beyond. ![]() Project Management for Drug Developers by Joseph P.

This form of private voluntary regulation, spearheaded by Nike and Reebok, became necessary given the inability of third world countries to enforce their own laws and the absence of a global regulatory system for labor standards. Although private regulation programs have been adopted by other companies in many different industries, we know relatively little regarding the effectiveness of these programs because companies don't disclose information about their efforts and outcomes in regulating labor conditions in their supply chains.Private Regulation of Labor Standards in Global Supply Chains presents data from companies, multi-stakeholder institutions, and auditing firms in a comprehensive, investigative dive into the world of private voluntary regulation of labor conditions. The picture he paints is wholistic and raw, but it considers several ways in which this private voluntary system can be improved to improve the lives of workers in global supply chains. |
