The Rule of Law

A Very Short Introduction

By: Aziz Z. Huq,Frank and Bernice J Greenberg Professor of Law Aziz Z Huq

This very short introduction sets out the origins and development of an English-language debate centered around the phrase "rule of law." It aims is to explore the distinctive ethical contribution offered by various thinkers to this specific phrase, first theorized by the English scholar A.V. Dicey, while largely setting aside how the same questions are framed and resolved in other traditions. The book opens by canvassing the classical and early modern sources upon which Dicey and his successors explicitly drew. It then explores the idea of Dicey, who it flags as the first self-conscious theorist of the rule of law. It then recounts his immediate successors. These include a heterogenous range of thinkers, such as Friedrich Hayek, Lon Fuller, Ronald Dworkin, and Tom Bingham. With this genealogy in hand, the book then reflects the important question of why the rule of law (in some version or other) persists-that is, why do actors with the power to cast aside the rule of law not do so? The book next turns to the ways in which the term "rule of law" has diffused across borders, making it a geopolitical phenomenon. Specifically, the phrase was taken toward the end of the twentieth century across borders by actors as diverse as the World Bank, Singapore, and the Chinese Communist Party. Finally, the book closes by examining the way that the rule-of-law tradition can be challenged both as a matter of theory and practice"--

Egocentric Network Analysis

Foundations, Methods, and Models

By: Brea L. Perry,Bernice A. Pescosolido,Stephen P. Borgatti

Egocentric network analysis is used widely across the social sciences, especially in anthropology, political science, economics, and sociology, and is increasingly being employed in communications, informatics, and business and marketing studies. Egocentric network analysis requires a unique set of data collection and analysis skills that overlap only minimally with other network methodologies. However, until now there has been no single reference for conceptualizing, collecting, and analyzing egocentric social network data. This comprehensive guide to study design, data collection, and analysis brings together the state of knowledge with the most effective research tools to guide newcomers to this field. It is illustrated with many engaging examples and graphics and assumes no prior knowledge. Covering the entire research process in a logical sequence, from conceptualizing research questions to interpreting findings, this volume provides a solid foundation for researchers at any stage of their career to learn and apply ego network methods.

Making a Difference in Our Father’s House

The History of Trinity Missionary Baptist Church

By: Bernice Eaton,Rev. Dr. Gregory E. Moore

In the early 1900s, thirty-five individuals left their current church to venture on a journey of starting a new church. This journey would change not only the community, but the lives of many. In Making a Difference in Our Father’s House, authors Bernice H. Eaton and Reverend Dr. Gregory E. Moore chronicle the history of the creation of Trinity Baptist Church in Fort Valley, Georgia. Eaton and Moore pieced the history together from written and oral resources including financial records, the first warranty deed, programs, conference minutes, minute books, newspaper articles, correspondence, written and oral histories, books, manuscripts, and census records. It presents a look at everything from the church founders to its pastors and leadership, and its programs and outreach. Making a Difference in Our Father’s House shows that throughout its history, the members demonstrated their faith, their hope, and their courage as they went about doing God’s will. They worked to make a better community for the people of Fort Valley and Peach County becoming known as the People’s Church.

The Foursome

By: Bernice Berger Miller

Four young women are sitting at the kitchen table. Blanche, in an exaggerated manner, readjusts her flowered shawl over her ample shoulders and picks up the deck of cards. With her usual grand gesture, she flips a card in an arc to each of the four waiting piles. Sophie places hunks of bubbling kugel onto four waiting plates. Gertie gathers her cards carefully and fans them. Blanche reaches over to Maggie’s pile as Maggie scoops them into a neat set. She slaps Blanche’s hand away. “Lay off,” she says. Blanche says, “Gimme those. One stuck together.” “Says who?” “Says me.” And so, over kugel and cards, another weekly lunch of quick-witted bickering, laughing, insulting, and horseplay begins. And the revealing of their deepest-held secrets ensues, the result of which is an outpouring of tears, followed by soothing, and finally, relief in the arms of trusted friends. Blanche is the flamboyant, dynamic member of the foursome that never does play a hand of poker. She meets her true love, shy and quiet Aaron, when they are nine years old. Her attraction to him is part of her story. But Buzz, her older brother, holds the key to the grief she hides beneath her flashy exterior. Maggie is Blanche’s sparring partner, though they have a deep attachment that gives them special insight into each other’s pain. Maggie’s pervasive guilt over her conflict with her Church and family and Catholic beliefs is her story. And her sharpened sensitivity enables her to intuit Sophie’s story. Sophie’s marriage to Jack flounders when their infant son, Leon, dies of pneumonia. Her maternal need yearns for another child. Alyosha, a traveling stranger, lingers for a short time in Sophie’s neighborhood before moving on. Sophie’s decision is abrupt and certain, leaving her carrying a deep-seated, lifelong mystery. Gertie is single, and Reuben is courting her. Reuben is refreshing, engaging, and resourceful. Gertie is attracted, but she has a reservation regarding one aspect of Reuben’s behavior. It speaks to the core of her fear. THE FOURSOME is a story of friendship. A safe haven, trust, and wisdom are the crucial qualities of a true friendship. Blanche, Maggie, Sophie, and Gertie have them all.

Cutting Edge

New Stories of Mystery and Crime by Women Writers

By: Margaret Atwood,Aimee Bender,Edwidge Danticat,Valerie Martin,Bernice L. McFadden

A chilling noir collection featuring fifteen crime and mystery tales and six poems from female authors. Joyce Carol Oates, a queen-pin of the noir genre, has brought her keen and discerning eye to the curation of an outstanding anthology of brand-new top-shelf short stories (and poems by Margaret Atwood!). While bad men are not always the victims in these tales, they get their due often enough to satisfy readers who are sick and tired of the gendered status quo, or who just want to have a little bit of fun at the expense of a crumbling patriarchal society. This stylistically diverse collection will make you squirm in your seat, stay up at night, laugh out loud, and inevitably wish for more. With stories by: Joyce Carol Oates, Margaret Atwood (poems), Valerie Martin, Aimee Bender, Edwidge Danticat, Sheila Kohler, S.A. Solomon, S.J. Rozan, Lucy Taylor, Cassandra Khaw, Bernice L. McFadden, Jennifer Morales, Elizabeth McCracken, Livia Llewellyn, Lisa Lim, and Steph Cha. Praise for Cutting Edge “The indefatigable Joyce Carol Oates gathers a strong list of names . . . . Emerging and established authors provide attention-grabbing short works: especially notable are Edwidge Danticat's story on the quotidian horror of domestic violence, Bernice L. McFadden’s comic take on the appropriation of racial friendship, and Lisa Lim’s illustrations of a grotesque marriage.” —Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine “But of course, in the end, it isn't the themes or the innovations on the format of the short story anthology that make the tales collected in Cutting Edge most “feel” as if you were reading Joyce Carol Oates herself. It is the writing. The tight plots and fresh, flowing prose that go about their business until—snap!—the story’s well-oiled mousetrap does its job.” —New York Journal of Books “The 15 stories and six poems in this slim yet weighty all-original noir anthology . . . are razor-sharp and relentless in their portrayal of life, offering snapshots of dysfunction, everyday toil, and brief joy. It is unusual, however, in its scope, zeroing in not only on what the female characters endure but what they dish out . . . . Each story sears but does not cauterize, leaving protagonists and readers raw . . . . Fans of contemporary crime fiction won’t want to miss this one.” —Publishers Weekly

Rutland

By: Bernice May Anderson

Rutland's history began in 1686, when this twelve-square-mile tract of land was purchased from the Naquag Indians at a cost of 80¢ per square acre. Since then, this once small Massachusetts village has continued to flourish into the rural town it is today. In Rutland, local author Bernice M. Anderson invites you to explore the history of the town during the period from the late nineteenth century through the mid-twentieth century. Discover Main Street, the Bartlett Hotel, and the Old Fire Barn as they were at the turn of the century. See Rutland as it celebrates Independence Day, summer after summer, and learn about the community's strength in times of tragedy, including the tornado that tore through Rutland in the early hours of a summer morning in 1953.

Oh! the Places I've Been

By: Bernice Livingston Youtz

Oh! the Places I've Been is a memoir Bernice Livingston Youtz has written primarily for her family and a few friends. She relates childhood in the Depression of the 1930s (she always knew that it was spelled with a capital D), adolescence during World War II, young adulthood, marriage, children in the post-war 1950s. She recalls an early love of reading which led, not surprisingly, to an aspiration for travel, although there was no opportunity for that until she was an adult, no "study abroad" programs or summers hosteling in Europe. She made up for that in work and travel in post-war Europe, and--after her marriage--she and her husband lived in Beirut, Lebanon, for three years. She writes of the great pleasure she took in raising her three children and in the travel she has been privileged to enjoy in recent years. She is grateful for the privilege of having lived in Lebanon and on two occasions in France, has traveled in some sixty countries. She still reads, thinks often of the many people she has known throughout the world.

From Silence to Voice

What Nurses Know and Must Communicate to the Public

By: Bernice Buresh,Suzanne Gordon

For more than a decade, From Silence to Voice has been providing nurses with communication tools they can use to win the resources and respect they deserve. Now, in a timely third edition, authors Bernice Buresh and Suzanne Gordon focus on how nurses can describe and frame their work to seize unprecedented opportunities to advance their profession and lead improvements in health care systems.The authors, both journalists, argue that because nursing needs the support and cooperation of others to fulfill its potential, it is critical that nurses communicate the full scope of nursing practice. Nurses must go beyond describing nursing in terms of dedication and caring and articulate nurses' specialized knowledge and expertise.From Silence to Voice helps nurses explain their contributions to patient safety, satisfaction, and outcomes. It shows how nurses can communicate with various publics about important aspects of their work, such as how they master and employ complex medical technologies and regimens, and how they use their clinical judgment in life-and-death situations. "Nurses and nursing organizations," the authors write, "must go out and tell the public what nurses really do so that patients can actually get the benefit of their expert care."This comprehensively revised and updated third edition helps nurses use a range of traditional and social media to accurately describe the true nature of their work. Its analyses of images that are projected by nursing campaigns and its detailed guidance in helping nurses construct positive and powerful narratives of their work make From Silence to Voice a must-read in nursing schools and organizations and by individual nurses in all areas of the profession. Because nurses are busy, many of the communication techniques in this book are designed to integrate naturally into nurses’ everyday lives and to complement nurses’ work with patients and families.
