The Making of a Civilian Soldier in the Civil War

The First Diary of Private WIlliam J. McLean Along the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal and the Affair of Edwards Ferry

By: Dennis D. Urban

This Union soldier’s diary recounts his journey from enlistment to postwar life, with extensive historical and biographical context provided by the editor. When war broke out between the states, William J. McLean left his home in Fairfield, NY, and joined the 34th New York Infantry. He kept a diary that tells of his many wanderings and adventures, from his time in Washington, D.C. to picket duty along the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal. William also describes the first death of a soldier in his regiment, the excitement over Bull Run, and an incursion into rebel-infested Virginia. Offering much more than a simple diary transcription, editor Dennis D. Urban sheds light on the actions of the 34th at Edward’s Ferry during the Battle of Balls Bluff; McLean’s effort to correct his military and pension records; and the post-war years of William, his brother, and his father, all of whom served the Union cause. Extensive chapter notes also provide biographical information about the regimental friends and other individuals William mentions in his entries.

Contemporary Environmental Problems in Nepal

Geographic Perspectives

By: Keshav Bhattarai,Dennis Conway

This monograph examines contemporary environmental challenges facing Nepal, this landlocked country’s representativeness in the wider South Asian context is both distinct and generalizable. In large part, this is because of its extremes of physiographical structure- plains, hill ranges, mountainous massifs - and wide range of altitudinal terrains, which represent and replicate South Asian and East Asian continental conditions differing as markedly as humid tropical lowlands, sub-tropical hill ranges and temperate to sub-arctic mountainous environments. Associated forest regimes, in which deforestation and reforestation patterns have evolved in recent times, and differing densities of settlement and cleared agricultural landscapes in each of these altitudinal zones, add to the environmental diversity of Nepal. Associated fauna and exotic species are in various states of endangerment especially Bengal tigers, one horned rhinos, wild elephants, crocodile, musk deer, and peasants, to name a few- so that their forested and mountainous habitats as ‘Wild Life Reserves’ also deserve our attention, and are featured in this monograph’s remit.

Market and Society in Korea

Interest, Institution and the Textile Industry

By: Dennis McNamara

Assessing the roles of capital, labour, and state, McNamara discovers a distinctive style of interest bargaining to bridge uncertainties and foster entrepreneurship. The textile industry serves as a microcosm of the broader social changes of the past five decades. Dramatic transitions from family firms to professional capitalism, from state direction to regulation, and from company unions to industry federations take centre stage. Moving among executives, labour leaders, and state officials, the author charts development across the crucible of contending interests. Stretching from high technology to labour-intensive production, the textile industry offers a new profile of democratization and market liberalization, and recently of globalization and adjustment in the wake of the Asian Financial Crisis. The first comprehensive review of the past and present of a leading sector, the volume offers a new interpretation of society and market in South Korea. Drawing insights from the New Economic Sociology, this study sheds new light on social systems of production in the South Korean Miracle. Contrasts with Thailand and Japan bring the Korean experience of interest contention into a comparative context of Asian capitalism.
