Experienced SIA practitioners from around the world share their learnings and advice on a comprehensive range of issues faced in social performance practice. They explore how SIA has moved far beyond its original role as an ex-ante input into a regulatory environmental licensing process to now serving multiple stakeholders at all stages of the project lifecycle and seeking improved outcomes for host communities. The chapters also reveal how the field and practice of SIA connects with wider discourses, including: business and human rights; environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance; and social licence to operate.

Providing an extensive overview of the field of SIA, this incisive Handbook is essential reading for: SIA practitioners; researchers of environmental sociology, environmental psychology, human geography, community psychology, or applied anthropology; and other people with an interest in the social impacts of projects. The Handbook's exploration of how SIA might contribute to better outcomes for communities and projects will also benefit individuals and organizations who commission and review EIAs and SIAs, environmental, social and community NGOs, as well as members of project-affected communities.

A Practical Guide to Dewey Decimal Classification is a hands-on introduction to the world's most frequently used classification system.



The book gives a brief history of the scheme and discusses the theory behind the organization and construction of Dewey class numbers. However, I would like to go further and walk through the process of finding DDC numbers and how to build them using WebDewey, the online resource for accessing DDC. Since DDC is no longer published in print (as of June 2018), it is important that readers understand the basics of using WebDewey. End-of-chapter exercises let readers assess their learning.



Chapter coverage is complete:



1. Introduction

2. Dewey Decimal Classification in a Nutshell

3. Basic Principles of Classification (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

4. Searching and Browsing in WebDewey (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

5. Using Notes and the Manual (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

6. Number Building in DDC (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

7. Using Tables within the Schedules (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

8. Advanced Class Number Building Using Table 1 (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

9. Advanced Class Number Building Using Table 2 (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

10. Advanced Class Number Building Using Tables 3-6 (Exercises at the end of the chapter)

This international book provides a series of viewpoints on academic integrity from the perspective of social sciences. It brings together multiple aspects of academic integrity, but with the consistent theme of being at a level of analysis that considers people and their place in the world. It covers topics such as how academic integrity can be taught, and why academic integrity breaches occur.

This book informs the work of researchers, educators, and practitioners as we go forward in understanding academic integrity and addressing academic misconduct. The social sciences include academic disciplines such as sociology, economics, psychology, education, anthropology, political science, and criminology. Researchers and theorists in these fields offer a range of unique and valuable perspectives on academic integrity with questions ranging from: "Why do students cheat and how best do we teach them not to?" to "What are the societal and political implications of academic cheating?"

Lesotho's history has long been defined by its enclave status within South Africa, but it is a hard-fought and hard-won status that helps unite Basotho through the shared history of struggle against colonial rule in the region. Since the end of apartheid in 1994, Lesotho's status as a separate entity has been called into question though the fierce national pride built through centuries of resistance to outside rule has mitigated against any serious discussions of incorporating Lesotho into South Africa. Still, the political instability and lack of a flourishing domestic economy have made life difficult for the majority of Basotho and could call into question the viability and legitimacy of the state in the eyes of its citizens if it cannot enact significant reforms in the coming decades.

Arguing that the 'Publish or Perish' doctrine is the result of globalisation and the neoliberal concept of higher education as a private good, new sections in this second edition cover issues such as editorial misconduct and incompetence, the use of artificial intelligence as a conduit to misconduct and academics suffering psychological and emotional damage. Publish or Perish outlines the overwhelmingly negative unintended consequences stemming from the pressure to publish research, proposing both radical and moderate solutions to address these problems.

This highly prescient book will be a crucial read for students, academics and researchers across disciplines worldwide. It will no doubt also be of interest to non-university researchers, university administrators, policy makers and government officials operating within the fields of higher education, science and technology.

World War II was the largest and most costly conflict in history, the first true global war. Fought on land, on sea, and in the air, it involved numerous countries and killed, maimed, or displaced millions of people, both civilian and military, around the world. In spite of the alliances that bound many of the same participants, the war was essentially two separate but simultaneous conflicts: one involved Japan as the major antagonist and took place mostly in Asia and the Pacific; and the other, initiated by Germany and Italy, was contested mainly in Europe, North Africa, the Mediterranean, and the Atlantic. This book focuses on the lesser known war, the war with Japan. It begins with Japan's seizure of Manchuria from China in 1931 and covers Japan's ambitious attacks on Pearl Harbor and other territories ten years later, the use of atomic bombs on Japan's cities, and the end of the Allied occupation of Japan in 1952. Although Japan renounced war in its 1947 constitution, conflict continued across Asia, as former colonies fought for independence and civil war engulfed other areas.
