Gender and the Limits to Diversity in the Contemporary British Army

This article considers equal opportunities and diversity management policies in the contemporary British Army for what they indicate, not only about policy frameworks for women's military participation, but also for what they tell us about the construction of ideas about gender and difference within that organization. The article sets out contextual information on women in the British Army and describes the research methodology on which this article is based. It looks at the evolution of equal opportunities policies and the more recent shift towards diversity management policies in the Army, focusing on their contributions towards female equity. The article examines the consequences of the shift towards the management of diversity, noting how embracing the ideas of diversity management is ultimately limited by the Army's construction of female difference. It concludes with a discussion of the issues of female and military specificity in relation to the management of diversity.

Michael Young: In Retrospect

Michael Young (1915–2002), Lord Young of Dartington, sociologist, ‘social entrepreneur’ and originator of dozens of organisations, was a prominent figure in many areas of British life in the latter half of the twentieth century. On 14 January 2004, to mark the second anniversary of his death and the deposition of his archives at Churchill College, Cambridge, a conference was held at which Peter Hennessy, Martin Daunton, Pat Thane, Hilary Perraton and Matthew Hilton were invited to assess Young's contribution to different aspects of contemporary British life. Their presentations are published here in this special section devoted to Michael Young, together with a foreword by his biographer, Lord Asa Briggs. The editors of Contemporary British History wish to thank the Churchill Archives Centre, and particularly Allen Packwood, for enabling this event to take place.

Between Realism and Visual Concept: the Role of the Production Designer in Contemporary British Cinema

The production designer is an intriguing figure whose contribution to a film is often misunderstood by those not working in the industry. This is partially due to the nature of the work, which is linked to the aesthetic principle of concealing the involvement of people working behind the camera. The production designer’s task is to collaborate with both the producer and the director to create a ‘look’ for the film within the limitations of its budget. The process relies on research, which is brought to life through inspiration, and the adept use of volume, light and colour. The deployment of screen space is often physically and emotionally essential in order to underpin the concepts of character and narrative, and it can often take on a personality of its own. In examining the parameters of the craft of production design today, I shall draw heavily on the work of Christopher Hobbs who, through his innovative approaches to place and time, has created some of the most powerful and memorable screen imagery in contemporary British cinema. The first film that he designed was Jubilee (1978), and his irreverent approach continues to deliver the unexpected today.

Religious Mission and Business Reality: Trends in the Contemporary British Christian Book Industry

The publishing industry in the UK has undergone significant changes in recent years, with publishers being absorbed into conglomerates and the rise of book chains. These trends have affected the Christian book industry, with some Christian publishers coming under secular ownership and the growth of a Christian retail chain, publisher and distributor, Send the Light. Publishers that wish to sell Christian ideas through books have had to adapt to a culture where there is less explicit commitment to, or knowledge of, Christianity than in the past. Some publishers serve a Christian niche, while others, either through belonging to a powerful conglomerate or an ability to sign prominent authors, retain a presence in mainstream bookshops. Although the ownership of several Christian imprints by Rupert Murdoch and the prominence of Christian consumer products that mimic secular products are causes for concern to some, devotional works and Bible studies remain more significant sellers.

'A brief glow in the dark': Samuel Beckett's Presence in Modern Irish Poetry

One definition of 'Irish' that I liked a lot was Samuel Beckett's. When he was interviewed by a French journalist, the journalist said: 'Vous etes Anglais, Monsieur Beckett?'. To which Beckett replied: 'Au contraire'. (Seamus Heaney) (1) In 1982, the same year he harnessed Samuel Beckett's quip to define a notion of Irishness, Seamus Heaney protested at his inclusion in Blake Morrison and Andrew Motion's anthology The Penguin Book of Contemporary British Poetry by pointing out that his passport was green. It is somewhat surprising that Heaney would invoke Beckett in a discussion of Irish national identity, as the latter's attachment to the national colour--and much else--was rather problematic. A week after the 1931 publication of Beckett's first book, Proust, in Chatto & Windus's 'Dolphin' series, the editor Charles Prentice wrote to Beckett apologizing for the fact that the front cover was brown rather than green: 'Clearly I have been trying to steal you from Ireland.' (2) Beckett's answer, that he had 'not noticed whether the Dolphin was green or brown', represents an early instance of what would become a lifelong ambivalence towards his native country. (3) This studied indifference is evident again in 1938, when Beckett describes Routledge's 'effort to make an Irishman of me' in the blurb to his novel Murphy as 'touching'. (4) Such efforts largely disappeared, however, following his permanent departure from the 'land of my unsuccessful abortion' for France, where 'the little operation is cheap, safe, legal + popular', not to mention his adoption of French as his creative medium. (5) Resurfacing only briefly during the 1956 Dublin production of Waiting for Godot, Beckett remained largely outside further developments in Irish cultural events until the early 1970s. (6) The timing of this (re)integration into collective cultural consciousness naturally owes much to the award of the Nobel Prize in 1969, but is surely also related to the eruption of the Troubles in that same year. In a climate where questions of identity, place, and displacement, and the role of the artist within society were highly charged, many Irish poets looked to Beckett's experiences when wondering, as Paul Muldoon does in '7, Middagh Street', 'Which side was I on? | Not one, or both, or none.' (7) This development is somewhat like that observable in post-war Germany, where Adorno's essay 'Versuch, das Endspiel zu verstehen' made Beckett central to socio-cultural and philosophical debates over the role, and possibility, of art in a society irredeemably altered by the Holocaust. (8) Yet in contrast to the efforts of German sociologists and philosophers to set Beckett into a more abstract and universal context, in Ireland, creative writers have entered into a more textual dialogue with Beckett's work, in an effort to investigate their own roles in the Irish community. In this undertaking, they have concentrated on Beckett's writings as creative texts, not merely as philosophical texts, whereby their religious and political aspects as well as largely ignored parts of his oeuvre have been explored. Thus the neglected field of Beckett's poetry has been discussed by Irish poets, amongst others Derek Mahon, Thomas Kinsella, and David Wheatley, often in scholarly Beckett journals. This essay will trace and explore the presence of Beckett in modern Irish poetry, particularly in that of Derek Mahon. Ruptures The Irish revival of critical interest in Beckett's work in the 1970s started a process of reappropriation, leading, for example, to John Montague's solicitation of Beckett (a few months before his death in 1989) for a contribution to The Great Book of Ireland compiled by 'Poetry Ireland'. (9) The first, most important event in the process of reintroducing Beckett into Irish cultural discussions after the Second World War was the republication of his 1934 essay 'Recent Irish Poetry' in the fourth number of The Lace Curtain in 1971 by the poets Michael Smith and Trevor Joyce. …

Is There a Status Order in Contemporary British Society?: Evidence from the Occupational Structure of Friendship

This paper considers whether it is still possible to identify a status order in contemporary Britain. We analyse the occupational structure of friendship and present empirical results which show that there is one dimension of this structure that can be plausibly interpreted as reflecting a hierarchy of status. This status hierarchy is gender-neutral, and displays clear continuities with that depicted for the later nineteenth and earlier twentieth centuries in historical and earlier sociological research. We examine the connection between status and both income and education and show that the status order we identify is distinct either from income or education or from ‘socioeconomic’ status as determined by income and education in combination. As regards status and class, we find that, while some classes show a rather high degree of status homogeneity, in other classes status stratification is quite extensive. Our results suggest that the Weberian distinction between status and class remains valid and potentially highly revealing. By retaining this distinction in social stratification research, a range of questions on the articulation of the class structure and the status order and of their effects on life chances and life choices is opened up.

From Mathematics to Metaethics: The Cambridge Companion

The Cambridge Companion to Bertrand Russell. Cambridge and New York: Cambridge U. P., . Pp. xvii + . £., . (hb);£., . (pb). ccording to the notes on the back cover of this latest addition to the CamAbridge Companions series, one aim of the series is to dispel the intimidation felt by new readers of the major philosophers covered. Few philosophers are likely to induce as much intimidation in students of their work as Russell. Aside from the challenge posed to his readers by the sheer quantity of work Russell produced, he also worked in some of the most rarefied air of philosophical inquiry , from philosophical and mathematical logic to the metaphysical and epistemological consequences of theoretical physics, consistently producing theories of great originality and ingenuity that have often left perplexed even those well acclimatized to these regions of thought. Furthermore, as if the prospect of scaling the edifice of Russell’s philosophy wasn’t made formidable enough already, one also has to cope with Russell’s many changes of heart over often fundamental features of his philosophy. This tendency of Russell’s, summed up famously by C. D. Broad’s remark that Russell produced “a new system of philosophy every few years”, is one that often leads Russell’s readers to mistakenly assume that there is no unity to be found in his work. Nicholas Griffin disposes of that mistake early in his introduction to the Companion: “What [Broad’s remark] ignores is the extent to which the various phases of Russell’s philosophy develop out of each other as different attempts to carry forward a single philosophical project” (p. ). One of the many merits of this collection of fifteen essays is that it stands as a convincing testament to Griffin’s claim.  Broad, “Critical and Speculative Philosophy”, in J. H. Muirhead, ed., Contemporary British Philosophy, nd series (New York: Macmillan, ), p. . russell: the Journal of Bertrand Russell Studies n.s.  (summer ): – The Bertrand Russell Research Centre, McMaster U.  -  Reviews While it is true that Russell’s philosophy is difficult, it is also true that a thorough understanding of it is indispensable to any student of analytical philosophy , as Griffin makes perfectly clear in the opening paragraph of his introduction : It is difficult to over-estimate the extent to which Russell’s thought dominated twentiethcentury analytic philosophy: virtually every strand in its development either originated with him or was transformed by being transmitted through him. Analytic philosophy itself owes its existence more to Russell than to any other philosopher. (P. ) Griffin’s introduction is as good a starting-point in the study of Russell as any student will find. After giving an account of Russell’s life, Griffin proceeds to present a chronological survey of his philosophical work that highlights all of the central areas of Russell’s work. Griffin points out the importance, for example , of Russell’s principle of acquaintance (the demand that, to understand a proposition, one must stand in a relation of immediate acquaintance with all of its constituents), his constant realism regarding universals, and Russell’s conception of the relation between philosophy and science. The essay also draws attention to some neglected, yet fascinating, parts of Russell’s philosophy, such as his pre-emption in An Inquiry into Meaning and Truth of Michael Dummett’s renowned extension of the debate between platonists and constructivists in mathematics over the status of the law of excluded middle to the wider realism debate in philosophy (pp. –). The text is helpfully supplemented by detailed references to works by Russell, works on Russell, and to later essays in the volume, all of which serve to make this introduction to the book an excellent introduction to Russell’s philosophy itself. The first essay, Ivor Grattan-Guinness’s “Mathematics in and behind Russell ’s Logicism”, as is to be expected, is one of several papers in the volume that concentrates on Russell’s logico-mathematical concerns. The paper avoids technical discussion and provides a rather brisk summary of Russell’s influences and advances. As a consequence...

England through Colonial Eyes in Twentieth-Century Fiction by Ann Blake , Leela Ghandi , Sue Thomas (review)

TES,34, 2004 283 England through Colonial Eyes in Twentieth-Century Fiction. By ANN BLAKE, LEELA GHANDI,and SUETHOMAS. Basingstoke and New York: Palgrave. 200I. x + 207 pp. p40. ISBN:0-333-73744-x. Stuart Hall, in a recent radio interview,lamented the irony of cultural shifts.At a time when 'British'has become an acceptable term to many black inhabitants of England, who would resist being described as English, Britain is redefining its 'united kingdom', establishing separate parliaments in its constituent parts, and rejectingthe collective identity implied by 'British'.This kind of mutation, showing self-representationas constantlyin processratherthan as achieved, is the concern of England through Colonial Eyesin Twentieth-Centu?y Fiction. It investigatesthe preoccupation in twentieth-centuryfiction and autobiography with the selving of colonial subjectsas they encounter 'the mother country'.The ongoing processesof negotiation , rejection,and articulationthat characterizethe relationshipbetween England, particularly London as the centre of empire, and colonial and postcolonial immigrantsare traced through a wide-rangingcollection of texts. The book's comparativefocus is enlightening.PartI, 'Mapping Some Territory', surveys the variety of ways in which literary traditions have been transformed by colonial and postcolonial writers who inscribe immigrant experience into, for instance, the domestic novel or the Bildungsroman. Coverage begins at the end of the nineteenth century, with Schreiner and Kipling, and concludes with contemporarywriterssuch as Gurnah and Roy. PartII is composed of studiesof individual authors: Mansfield, Rhys, Stead, Lessing, Naipaul, Emecheta, Rushdie, and Dabydeen. Perhaps in keeping with the contingent nature of the project, there is no conclusion;there could have been some gesture towards the new generation of writers born in Britain to immigrant families, whose agenda as both writers and critics is differentfrom that of the parental generation. The impressive coverage of texts from different times and places presents the authors with discursiveproblems. Their methodology pivots on giving plot summaries of the texts they discuss which provides in places a cumbersome reading experience. The summaryis itselfalwaysan interpretation,which sometimes seems tailored to make it fit the argument. The account of 'The Daughters of the Late Colonel' asserts that 'nothing is available to them except an intermittent sense of disappointment and loss' (p. 86). This omits the daughters' repressed sense of humour which makes the story both poignant and a comic tourdeforce.Similarly, the savage comedy of Naipaul's fiction, one of its most manipulative effects, is marginalizedin the interestsof sustaininga persuasiveargument about the reversal of the imperialgaze, as the colonized subjectcomparesfantasiesabout England and the Englishwith the opportunityto observe the reality. The book's argument is subtle and nuanced, approached slightly differentlyby each of the three authors.Some spikyobstaclesto the complex flow of the discussion are smoothed rather too sweepinglyout of the way; fiction by English writersis a case in point. To describe Graham Greene andJoyce Cary as 'taken up with the niceties of social mobility within a narrow range, and rarely acknowledgingeither non-whites or a working class' (p. 37) is puzzling; how do MisterJohnson,Brighton Rock,and ThePowerandtheGlory fit this paradigm?Similarly,the claim that, until Sillitoe and Braine began to publish, 'English novelists still saw England predominantly as middle-class'(p. 46) ignores the work of Gissingand Lawrence.Though it might be possible to suggest that the writersreplace one national myth of England with another,that of xenophobic greyness,this book is well researchedand presents the reader with an insight into the colonizer colonized.

Discourses of Gender in the Contemporary British Army

This article is about the discourses of gender which circulate within debates about the inclusion of women in the British Army. Drawing on material from elite policy debates within the British Ministry of Defence, Army, and Parliament, the article uses a methodology informed by theories of discourse analysis to examine how the figures of the male and female soldier are constructed. It focuses on three specific policy debates: the expansion in the number of posts open to women soldiers in the British Army, the introduction of “gender-free” physical tests as part of the selection process for the recruits to the Army, and the policy decision to exclude women from direct combat posts. The constructions of gender implicit within these policy debates are examined. The article concludes by considering these discursive constructions within the context of wider arguments about the changing practices of war and what these mean for women’s future military participation.
