Book Description
The impact of COVID-19 was worst on women during this pandemic. Women were affected more than men by the social and economic effects of this pandemic. To understand and mitigate the various issues on women during this pandemic, a NATIONAL WEBINAR on “Peace, Security and Justice: Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Women” was organized by Women Cell, Bahona College in collaboration with IQAC, Bahona College, Jorhat, Assam on 20-21 July 2020 during the lockdown period due to COVID-19. More than 1200 participants all over India participated in that webinar and many of them also expressed their interest in submitting their original articles/research papers on various issues related to the theme of the webinar. A good number of articles/research papers were received which were decided to publish in the form of an Edited Book after these were reviewed by the Expert Committee and entitled “COVID-19: Negotiating the Immediate and Beyond”. The contributors of this book are leading academicians, research scholars, and students from all over this country who actively participated in this webinar and enlightened this book with their valuable knowledge. Women are the backbone of any society and contribute significantly to the betterment of any society. Without them, no society exists. But still, during this pandemic situation due to COVID-19 they were the worst sufferers in almost all sectors in the society. Therefore, the aim of this Book was to understand and mitigate the various issues faced by women during this pandemic period on the basis of effective wisdom, learning, and findings of the large resource pool available across the country. This Book is the outcome of all the collaborative efforts of all the contributors. I sincerely hope that this Book will be of great value and a research guide for all of us especially to the women in any society.
Beyond the Balfour Declaration
Author: Leslie TurnbergPublisher: Biteback Publishing
ISBN: 1785902555
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Preface By The 5th Earl Of Balfour 2017 marks one hundred years since the Balfour Declaration, the landmark letter that expressed the British government's support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. A century later, the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians rages on, without prospect of a peace agreement any time soon. This timely book explores why innumerable efforts to resolve the conflict have always failed, and questions how an agreement could ever be reached. Shedding some much-needed light on many of the misconceptions of the Declaration, this book also navigates the complex history of the situation ever since. Labour peer and medical professor Leslie Turnberg elegantly places this particular conflict within the context of the turmoil in the rest of the Middle East, explaining how they have influenced one another. At a time of global uncertainties and fears of terrorism, Turnberg offers a balanced look at how best to plot a course amongst shifting alliances and an ever-changing political climate. Why have negotiations between Palestine and Israel consistently broken down? Beyond the Balfour Declaration details what an agreement might look like, and the steps that need to be taken to begin the process.

Contexts of Co-Constructed Discourse
Author: Lori CzerwionkaPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000411974
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
This collection showcases cutting-edge developments in co-construction in discourse. Drawing on the pioneering work of Dale A. Koike, the volume contributes new understandings of how speakers jointly negotiate meanings, contexts, identities, and social positions in interaction. The volume is organized around three key themes in co-construction—co-constructed discourse, pragmatics in discourse, and teaching and assessment of discourse—and builds on the introductory chapter that situates the discussion on context and co-construction as fundamental to understanding meaning-making in interaction. Drawing on interdisciplinary perspectives across strands of linguistics and education, chapters explore both the contextual elements that frame co-construction processes and the distinct dynamics between action and language use across a wide range of interactional contexts, including sports commentary, interviews, everyday conversation, classroom discourse, and digitally mediated settings. Taken together, the book highlights the impact of Koike’s contributions on existing research in pragmatics and discourse and exhibits the potential for her work to frame scholarship on emerging interactional contexts. This volume will be of particular interest to students and researchers in discourse studies, pragmatics, applied linguistics, second language studies, and language education, as well as those interested in interaction across diverse contexts.

Beyond Winning

Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Conflict is inevitable, in both deals and disputes. Yet when clients call in the lawyers to haggle over who gets how much of the pie, traditional hard-bargaining tactics can lead to ruin. Too often, deals blow up, cases don’t settle, relationships fall apart, justice is delayed. Beyond Winning charts a way out of our current crisis of confidence in the legal system. It offers a fresh look at negotiation, aimed at helping lawyers turn disputes into deals, and deals into better deals, through practical, tough-minded problem-solving techniques. In this step-by-step guide to conflict resolution, the authors describe the many obstacles that can derail a legal negotiation, both behind the bargaining table with one’s own client and across the table with the other side. They offer clear, candid advice about ways lawyers can search for beneficial trades, enlarge the scope of interests, improve communication, minimize transaction costs, and leave both sides better off than before. But lawyers cannot do the job alone. People who hire lawyers must help change the game from conflict to collaboration. The entrepreneur structuring a joint venture, the plaintiff embroiled in a civil suit, the CEO negotiating an employment contract, the real estate developer concerned with environmental hazards, the parent considering a custody battle—clients who understand the pressures and incentives a lawyer faces can work more effectively within the legal system to promote their own best interests. Attorneys exhausted by the trench warfare of cases that drag on for years will find here a positive, proven approach to revitalizing their profession.
