Max Liebermann Modern Art and Modern Germany

Max Liebermann Modern Art and Modern Germany

Max Liebermann: Modern Art and Modern Germany is the first English-language examination of this German impressionist painter whose long life and career spanned nine decades. Through a close reading of key paintings and by a discussion of his many cultural networks across Germany and throughout Europe this study by Marion Deshmukh illuminates Liebermann’s importance as a pioneer of German modernism. Critics and admirers alike saw his art as representing aesthetic European modernism at its best. His subjects included dispassionate depictions of the rural Dutch countryside his colorful garden at the Wannsee and his many portraits of Germany’s cultural political and military elites. Liebermann was the largest collector of French Impressionism in Germany - and his cosmopolitan outlook and his art created strong antipathies towards both by political and cultural conservatives throughout his life. | Max Liebermann Modern Art and Modern Germany

Demystifying Modern Slavery

Demystifying Modern Slavery

Who are the perpetrators of modern slavery? Why do they exploit others? What might be done to stop exploitation recurring? These are the questions answered in this book. Reporting on the first primary study of modern slavery offenders the book depicts the findings of in-depth interviews with people accused of and convicted for committing modern slavery offences. The different forms that modern slavery takes are explained chapter by chapter: organized crime people smuggling labour exploitation domestic servitude sham marriage the trafficking of adults for sexual exploitation and child sex trafficking. Using case studies to illuminate the perspectives of those deemed perpetrators we show that few modern slavery offenders conform to stereotypes of people traffickers. Through an interpretive analysis of offenders’ life stories we reveal the points in the past and present where interventions could have prevented victims from becoming trapped in exploitation. We show that while national governments and international bodies often appear resolute in their efforts to tackle modern slavery and people trafficking they have also obscured their own roles in compounding the plights of those at the sharp ends of globalization. In racializing the actions of sex traffickers grooming gangs and organized criminals the modern slavery agenda has mystified the roles market dynamics the absence of workers’ rights and immigration controls play in generating vulnerabilities to exploitation. This book will be of interest to a wide range of students policymakers and practitioners concerned with modern slavery human trafficking border control and immigration globalization and inequality as well as the more disciplinefocused criminological audiences concerned with why people commit crimes what should be done about them and the often paradoxical consequences of social control across borders. Given the book’s strong focus on narrative psychosocial and social network methodologies it will also appeal to audiences across the social sciences concerned with applying these novel approaches to difficult to reach populations. | Demystifying Modern Slavery

Modern Policing

Modern Policing

Originally published in 1981 Modern Policing provided an opportunity for members of the Police Staff College Bramshill to air their views about different aspects of modern British policing. Contributions were made by members of the directing staff – professional and academic – and by students. This book was addressed primarily to policemen themselves but also had wider appeal to those interested in policing. The editors saw within police constabularies a rapidly developing concern for management information by senior police personnel for material to better prepare officers for their difficult task by training departments for relevant analyses to help improve qualifications by policemen themselves. This was one of the first books to include views from inside the police rather than those from the outside the service.
