11	1600-talets urvalsprocesser för tryckta verk : Produktion och distribution av böcker och dissertationer i Stockholm och Uppsala / Processes of Selection for Printed Works during the 17th Century : Production and Distribution of Books and Dissertations in Stockholm and Uppsala Henriksson, Emma January 2010 (has links) <p>During the 17th century the production and distribution of printed works increased in Stockholm and Uppsala. However, all works that the publisher wanted to print, did not reach the reader. This thesis aimed to show when, where and how printed books and dissertations did not reach the reader. To achieve this aim, aspects of several well known models showing systems of book production and distribution were combined and adapted to suit Swedish conditions in the 17th century. This combined model focused on processes of selection and was presented and used as a theoretical approach. Processes of selection in this paper are processes in which often a conscious choice was made of which books people produced and distributed. By using literature that had already been written about the chosen subject the paper examines what this material tells us about processes of selection during the selected period. Six processes of selection have been identified and discussed, three belonging to the production of works and three belonging to the distribution of works. During the production publishers’ motives and conditions for publishing and how this affected what they chose and did not choose to publish were discussed. Publishers with economical motives might publish fewer books which contained new ideas as reprinting popular books probably resulted in a higher profit. If a publisher wanted to use the publishing of a book as a way to further his career that probably could lead to fewer books containing offensive material being published. The state of the printing material and the economy of the printer and publisher were things that could affect which books that were printed. Books that came to Stockholm and Uppsala from other countries could be lost while being transported. The increase and decrease of the book collection at the university library in Uppsala affected the reader’s range of books to choose from. This is a two years master’s thesis in library and information science.</p> Publishers and publishing Booksellers and bookselling Academic libraries Pillage 17th century bokproduktion bokdistribution bokutgivning bokhandel universitetsbibliotek krigsbyten 1600-tal

13	Conflit armé et ressources naturelles en droit international : le cas de la République démocratique du Congo Goyette, Andréanne 04 1900 (has links) (PDF) L'exploitation illicite des ressources naturelles en territoire de conflit armé représente un phénomène inquiétant pour la communauté internationale, et certainement un enjeu incontournable dans l'analyse de certains conflits actuels. Au-delà de l’importance de cette problématique dans la compréhension des mécanismes de financement des conflits armés, cette exploitation illicite engendre la commission de violations graves des droits humains. La population civile, prise dans l'étau de la violence armée, est une victime de premier plan de cette exploitation illicite, et des exactions qui en découlent. La situation en République démocratique du Congo en est l'une des illustrations les plus directes. Les violations commises à l'encontre de la population se situant dans les zones riches en ressources naturelles sont graves, et se produisent dans un climat d'impunité généralisée. Les objectifs centraux de ce mémoire sont, d'une part, de mettre en relief l’importante interconnexion entre l'exploitation illicite des ressources naturelles et la commission d'exactions graves, en exposant la situation en République démocratique du Congo, et d'autre part, d'entrevoir les pistes de solutions par l'analyse des initiatives en droit international pour la prévention et la répression des violations commises en lien avec l'exploitation des ressources naturelles. Le droit international est certainement une voie de réponse pertinente et nécessaire à l'égard de cet enjeu. L'établissement de régimes de sanctions et l'application du droit pénal international renferment les composantes essentielles à la répression des crimes reliées à l'exploitation illicite des ressources. De plus en plus, des mécanismes, codes de conduites et autres initiatives se développent et se renforcent au sein de regroupements multipartites. Cependant, devant la dualité des percées contraignantes et du développement d'initiatives plus volontaristes, et les lacunes de leur mise en œuvre, l'élaboration d'outils juridiques régionaux représentent une avenue de plus en plus incontournable dans la lutte contre l'exploitation illicite des ressources naturelles. La présente recherche tentera de démontrer la pertinence de cette approche certes récente, mais qui permet d'entrevoir plusieurs résultats innovateurs. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Ressources naturelles, conflit armé, droit international, République démocratique du Congo, minéraux, crimes internationaux, droit pénal international, pillage, droit international des droits humains, exactions, sanctions, devoir de diligence raisonnable, Conférence internationale sur la Régions des Grands Lacs. 2000-2009 Appropriation illicite Droit international Exploitation des ressources naturelles Guerre Guerre civile congolaise (1996-2002) Instabilité politique Pillage Prévention de la criminalité Violation des droits de l'homme République démocratique du Congo

15	Rom och den andres helgedom : Romerska plundringar av heliga platser / Rome and sacred sites of 'the Other' : Roman pillaging of sacred sites Magnusson, Jessica Therese January 2019 (has links) This study aims to examine how Rome understood 'the Other' in the context of Roman plundering of sacred sites. It analyses specifically the Temple of Poseidon at Isthmia, and how it was affected by the destruction of Corinth in 146 BCE, and the second Jewish temple at Jerusalem, and how the Romans went about destroying it in 70 CE. This study combines archaeological and written sources with iconography, to get as full an image as possible of Roman pillaging. For Isthmia the sources are mainly archaeological, from the excavations made by the University of Chicago. For Jerusalem the source is the ancient text Bellum Judaicum, by Flavius Josephus. The theory is that of 'the Other', as presented by Erich Gruen in his work Rethinking the other in antiquity, which is applied to the many questions in the discussion. The result of this study shows that Romans frequently sacked sacred sites of other peoples and used the artworks from them to beautify their own cities. They used the history and tradition of the Other for their own gain, to create a certain image of themselves. Further, this study finds that Rom considered itself the main power in the Mediterranean during these periods of antiquity.

16	Their Faltering Footsteps: Hardships Suffered by the Confederate Civilians on the Homefront in the American Civil War of 1861-1865 Spencer, Judith Ann 08 1900 (has links) It is the purpose of this study to reveal that the morale of the southern civilians was an important factor in determining the fall of the Confederacy. At the close of the Civil War, the South was exhausted and weak, with only limited supplies to continue their defense. The Confederacy might have been rallied by the determination of its people, but they lacked such determination, for the hardships and grief they endured had turned their cause into a meaningless struggle. Therefore, the South fell because its strength depended upon the will of its population. This study is based on accounts by contemporaries in diaries, memoirs, newspapers, and journals, and it reflects their reaction to the collapse of homefront morale. southern civilians American Civil War Confederate States of America economic hardship cost of goods
17	La logistique des armées hellénistiques / The logistics of Hellenistic armies Mesnil, Charlie 09 December 2017 (has links) L’usage du terme « logistique » dans son sens militaire est relativement récent dans l’historiographie de la guerre (il date essentiellement de quelques dizaines d’années) et le mot est complexe à définir. S’intéresser à la logistique militaire, c’est non seulement s’intéresser au ravitaillement de l’armée, mais aussi à ses déplacements, son équipement, son logement et son service sanitaire. Des sujets qui sont donc à la fois variés et très différents les uns des autres et pour lesquels les sources ne sont pas toujours satisfaisantes. Le monde hellénistique que nous étudions s’étend de Marseille à Aï Khanoum (Afghanistan) et comprend à la fois les royaumes et les cités. Les espaces concernés influencèrent les choix stratégiques des généraux. L’impact qu’eut la logistique militaire dans l’issue des conflits militaires hellénistiques est difficile à évaluer et peut aller de négligeable à déterminant. Mais la logistique militaire ne se résume pas à l’influence de celles-ci dans les guerres et aborde aussi des questions économiques et sociales. / The use of the term "logistics" in its military sense is relatively recent in the historiography of war (it dates essentially from a few decades) and the word is complex to define. To be interested in military logistics isn’t only to be interested in supplying the army, but also in its transport, equipment, housing and sanitary services. These subjects are therefore at the same time varied and very different from each other and the sources aren’t always sufficient. The Hellenistic world we are studying extends from Marseille to Ai Khanoum (Afghanistan) and includes both kingdoms and cities. The spaces concerned influenced the strategic choices of the generals. The impact of military logistics on the outcome of Hellenistic military conflicts is difficult to evaluate and can range from negligible to decisive. Military logistics, however, aren’t limited to their influence in wars, but also concern economic and social issues.

18	Droit et biopiraterie. Contribution à l'étude du partage des ressources naturelles. / Law and biopiracy. Contribution to the study of the sharing of natural resources. Peyen, Loïc 30 May 2017 (has links) Sources de convoitises, les ressources naturelles font parfois l'objet d’actes de prédation tels que la biopiraterie. Le phénomène, de plus en plus médiatisé, mais encore largement sous-étudié, est souvent dénoncé comme un véritable pillage des ressources naturelles. En fait, même si elle recouvre une réalité plurielle, la pratique de la biopirateriepeut être caractérisée comme un accaparement des ressources naturelles. Saisie comme telle, il est permis de comprendre comment elle est née et a évolué, ce qui est du plus grand intérêt pour son appréhension. Aussi, parce que la biopiraterie interroge les modalités de partage des ressources naturelles, elle contribue à un renforcement des dimensions solidaristes du statut juridique de ces ressources. Cependant, si des règles existent, elles ne sont pas pleinement satisfaisantes. Cette situation invite à une réflexion plus globale sur le statut juridique de l'environnement et conduisant à le considérer, juridiquement, comme un bien commun. / Because they are highly desired, natural resources are subjected to acts of predation, like biopiracy. The phenomenon draws more and more attention but is still not much studied. It is often condemned as real plundering of natural resources. Indeed, even if it covers a pluralist reality, the biopiracy practice can be characteristic of a monopolizing of naturalresources. Thus, it is possible to understand how it emerged and developed, which is important to comprehend it. Furthermore, biopiracy raises the question of the sharing conditions of natural resources and thereby contributes to strengthen the solidarist dimensions of the natural resources legal status. However, current rules are insufficient. This situation is inviting for a general reflection about the legal status of the environment that leads to consider it as a common good.

19	Unknown provenance : the forgery, illicit trade and looting of ancient near eastern artifacts and antiquities Conradie, Dirk Philippus 05 1900 (has links) The archaeology of the region, referred to in scholarly lexicon as the Ancient Near East, is richly endowed with artefacts and monumental architecture of ancient cultures. Such artefacts, as a non-renewable resource are, therefore considered to be a scarce commodity. So also is the context and the provenance of these objects. Once an object’s provenance has been disturbed, it is of no further significant use for academic research, except for aesthetic value. Historically, as well as in the present, we see that humans have exploited this resource for various reasons, with very little regard given to provenance. The impact of forgery, illicit trade and looting are the greatest threat to the value of provenance. Contrary to some arguments, collectors, curators, buyers, looters and certain scholars play a significant role in its destruction. This research reveals to what extent unknown provenance has become a disturbing problem in the study of archaeological artefacts. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.Th.

20	Canting the cradle : the destruction of an ancient Mesopotamian civilization Marston, Jane Elizabeth 02 1900 (has links) Iraq is a country of great cultural significance as it is where civilization first began. As a result of its lengthy occupation, it is virtually one large archaeological site. In spite of numerous warnings to the governments of both the United States and the United Kingdom, no efforts were made to protect the Iraqi National Museum in Baghdad when the American-led coalition unlawfully invaded Iraq. Indeed, orders were given not to interfere with the looting. During the occupation that followed, the United States failed to take steps to protect Iraqi cultural property. In terms of international law, it was obliged to protect Iraq’s cultural property. The United States also chose to exacerbate its unlawful conduct by occupying archaeological sites and damaging them further by illegal construction. As a result many significant sites have been irreparably damaged or destroyed. Their conduct was the result of complete indifference to the Iraqi cultural heritage. Although their actions render them iin breach of international law, it is unlikely that the United States will ever be prosecuted for its actions. / Old Testament & Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M.A. (Ancient Near Eastern Studies) Iraq Mesopotamia Cultural property Inventions Excavation Invasion Iraqi Museum Baghdad Looting Destruction of archaeological sites Occupation of archaeological sites Efforts to recover looted property Efforts to aid Iraq Museum 363.6909567 Archaeological thefts -- Iraq Iraq -- Antiquities Cultural property -- Protection -- Iraq Matḥaf al-ʻIrāqī
