Le grade de Maître

Cambridge, 1942Twins Tessa and Theo had always shared everything - until the summer Tessa spent studying in France. She hasn't been the same since. But before Theo can find out why, he is recruited by the RAF and disappears into the skies.Determined to carve her own path, Tessa joins the clandestine Special Operations Executive, slipping into the shadows of occupied France. It will be dangerous work, but France is the home of her greatest love - and her darkest secret. Tessa has many reasons for wanting to return.Two years later, Theo comes home. Tessa does not.A dazzling literary achievement that brings to life the shattering emotional impact of World War Two on ordinary people, THE SHOCK OF THE LIGHT is as exhilarating as it is heartbreaking.

The Shock of the Light

'Deeply moving and necessary'ANNE ENRIGHT'A must-read'iPAPER'Original and heart-warming' LINDSEY HILSUM'Remarkable ... the perfect antidote to our times'CHRISTINA LAMBFrom the Orwell Prize-winning author of My Fourth Time, We Drownedcomes a powerful account of human resilience, capturing our capacity for love and connection against all odds.We live in an era defined by crisis - whether it be war and displacement, or climate collapse and rapidly widening inequality. Acclaimed international correspondent Sally Hayden has spent her career covering some of the darkest moments of our time, and yet even in the face of unimaginable adversity, she's witnessed the love and care of everyday people.Hayden introduces us to a couple separated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and a mother in northeast Nigeria who risks everything to save her daughter from forced marriage to Boko Haram militants. We meet a group of Syrian women searching tirelessly for their missing spouses and children, while launching a call for justice, and learn about letters from the bereaved to the dead, still being written over a decade after the tsunami that devastated Japan.In stories that crisscross the globe, from Uganda to Lebanon, Rwanda to Iraq, Hayden asks us: what if news was recounted through the actions people take for those they love? Would it become harder to dehumanise those who seem different to us? This is Also a Love Story dares us to recognise how love can be found in even the most difficult of times, and to question what might be needed to create a better world.'Moving ...

Routledge Studies in Central and Eastern European Business and Economics

This book addresses a central puzzle in the study of European integration: why have some post-communist countries successfully embedded democratic and market institutions after EU accession or candidacy, while others have faltered or regressed?This book utilizes principal component analysis to create a unique composite indicator for EU integration readiness, offering a novel approach to assessing economic and social factors. It provides an extensive comparative study of Ukraine's integration readiness alongside Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Bosnia, and Macedonia. It goes beyond economic indicators, addressing non-economic obstacles such as identity-seeking problems and oligarchic ecosystems, making it a holistic resource for understanding the complexities of EU integration. Introducing the original distinction between self-contained and exported Europeanisation, this book offers a new comparative framework that explains divergent integration outcomes across Central and Eastern Europe and the Western Balkans. By combining theory-driven analysis with country case studies, it demonstrates how the balance between domestic political commitment and EU conditionality shapes long-term integration success.Bridging economics, European studies, comparative politics, and international political economy, this timely book speaks to scholars, students, and policymakers interested in the future of Europe's eastern frontier.

The European Union Series

The definitive textbook on EU politics and governance, now in its 9th edition, has been thoroughly updated to take into account the ongoing developments and evolution of the EU. Major changes, recent developments, and the crises that have befallen the union in recent times are analysed within this context. By detailing the evolution of European integration, Nugent and Servent give the necessary historical context to their exhaustive analysis of policies, process, institutions and treaties. In this revised edition, this has grown to include new chapters that detail both diverse theoretical perspectives and inter-institutional relations. In doing so, The Government and Politics of the European Union enables students with no prior knowledge of the EU to truly master the subject. With a new structure to increase readability, a broad range of pedagogical features - document excerpts, case studies, maps figures - and a fully developed companion website with resources for both students and lecturers, this text remains an essential for students new to EU studies. This new edition offers: - Updates on all main institutions, policies and processes - Authoritative coverage of the main institutions, policies and processes of the EU - A new chapter on theory that includes a broader and more diverse range of theoretical perspectives - A new chapter on inter-institutional relations. - Increased amount of visual features i.e. tables, figures, boxes, alongside new chapter summary points to aid student learning - New companion website including a curated list of video material, multiple-choice questions, links to official sources, additional case studies and regular updates

The Government and Politics of the European Union

European and National Constitutional Law Series

The wider project of which this book is a part, set out to investigate the constitutional structures of the EU Member States. As part of this comparative enterprise this work sheds light on the intricate interconnections which exist between Member State governments and their national parliaments. Although in many cases governments only exist and function as a consequence of parliamentary support, it is the executive that is usually the focal point of political life and that sets the nation's political course and drives forward its legislative agenda. Arguably, this perception is based on the political customs that surround government/parliament relations rather than the constitutional fundament upon which they are built. This book therefore provides an in-depth analysis of how these two institutions, the executive and the legislature, relate to one another from a constitutional law as well as a constitutional politics perspective. To do so this the work takes a comparative approach to examining how electoral laws, government formation processes, legislative practices, executive prerogatives, and the scrutiny of EU legislation shape the role governments and parliaments play and how they interact across the EU's Member States.

Parliaments and Governments

Cornerstone on...

Inquests and inquiries form a distinct area of law in which the aim of the tribunal is to discover what happened, rather than who is right, wrong, or at fault. Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries provides an accessible, go-to guide to this area of practice, useful for both practitioners and parties involved. It looks at the field as a whole, acknowledging the commonalities between inquests and public inquiries, and providing a practical approach to each. The book also covers the field of parliamentary inquiries.

Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries

This classic textbook provides a thorough overview of European private international law. It is essential reading for students and practitioners of private international law and transnational litigation, wherever they may be located: the European rules extend beyond European shores. Opening with foundational questions, the book clearly explains the subject's central tenets: the Brussels I, Rome I and Rome II Regulations (jurisdiction, applicable law for contracts and tort). Additional chapters explore private international law and insolvency, freedom of establishment, and the impact of private international law on corporate social responsibility. The relevant Hague instruments, and the impact of Brexit, are fully integrated in the various chapters. Drawing on the author's rich experience, the new edition retains the book's hallmarks of insight and clarity of expression, ensuring it maintains its position as the leading textbook in the field.

A 300-year history of influential artist training academies in more than a dozen countries &nbsp; This ambitious volume delves into the institutional history of art academies. These academies provided practical training for artists as well as spaces for theoretical discussions and debates as they emerged across Europe and the Americas around 1600 and through their proliferation in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Many were founded under official auspices, with state, ecclesiastical, or monarchical support for the teaching of “fine arts.” Others originated through private patronage or expanded beyond painting, sculpture, and architecture, competing or merging with trade schools. Complex models for teaching art evolved around the world across an array of institutions, as the European academy model responded to differing regional conditions, including colonial contexts. &nbsp; Seventeen essays from leading and emerging scholars examine academies from Brazil, Colombia, Italy, France, Germany, Mexico, Turkey, the United States, and beyond. In examining academies of art both within specific political and historical moments and across transnational boundaries, the authors ask nuanced questions about the institutions’ goals and rules around membership, addressing issues of race, class, and gender. The picture of art academies that emerges is one of malleable institutions that wrote, reformed, and adapted policies according to local needs. &nbsp; Published by the National Gallery of Art, Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts/Distributed by Yale University Press

"In one wide-ranging volume, Lambert and the country reporters demonstrate that law can not only keep up with technological change, but can in fact stay well ahead by anticipating upcoming questions.

A Journey Through Minerals, Greed and Wonder

Under a Metal Sky

This interdisciplinary collection illuminates the religious roots of marriage and divorce in Europe and their divergent history from the 18th century to the present day. The 18th century was a pivotal period in terms of how the rules governing marriage and divorce were determined, with authority to set and adjudicate on rules shifting from religious authorities to the state. This book evaluates these historical developments, paying particular attention to the waxing or waning influence of religious institutions, values, or norms and whether further suggestions for reform have been made. Volume 1 of A History of Family Law in Europe examines how, and the extent to which, marriage formation and dissolution are regulated in the written texts of the Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox traditions. The contributors analyse the respective traditions' teachings on marriage formation, marital impediments, and dissolubility, including these traditions' views as to the socially binding character of these teachings. Jurisdiction-specific chapters focusing on countries across Northern, Central, Southern, and Eastern Europe examine the regulation of marriage formation and dissolution in the context of religious and other cultural influences. This book brings together the insights of an international team of leading marriage-law scholars across Europe, and will be a significant resource for scholars of family law, legal history, and the history of religion.
