Two of the casualties of Cultural Studies have been the author and history. In poststructuralist conversations, the author has become a construct, a historical curio of a simpler bygone age. If biography is discourse, then why take an authorâs life and ideology seriously? Compounding the problem is the fact that we are lacking adequate biographies of many of the greats of Latin American literary history. A few years ago, while writing an introduction to an English translation of Ricardo Palmaâs...

Public expenditure by government to offer services and social amenities and development programs is aimed at improving the overall welfare of the state. However, scarcity of resources results to government relying on borrowing publicly to augment the existing budget. From economic analysis, a unit increase in public expenditure by government increases the GDP of an economy by more than a unit. The economic phenomenon that creates this scenario is known as the multiplier effect. Therefore, governments borrow externally and/or internally...

The Victorians saw poetry itself and its muses as feminine, making it doubly difficult for women to be authors of poems and so effectively silencing them . Christina Rossetti's contemporary female poets placed themselves outside of the sphere of male poetry by forging a unique discourse of their own from within the patriarchal form, but they were also bound by the assumptions and the expectations of the time. This gendering of poetry often trivialised women's writing, as poetry was 'too...

A common source of intra-industry performance variations is pegged upon the differences in enterprisesâ utilisation of organisational resources and capabilities (Spender, 1996; Teece et al., 1997). In the event that resources are valuable, rare, difficult to imitate, and seemingly non- substitutable â they could be a source of enterprise competitive advantage (Barney, 1991). An enterpriseâs capability to effectively create, manage and exploit knowledge-based assets â represents one such a vital resource (Matusik & Hill, 1998). Thus, being a bundle of...

Plath is considered to be one of the major voices writing about feminine subjects during the 1950s and the 1960s. This was a period when feminists started to acknowledge womenâs oppression and the 2nd wave feminist movement began in the early 1960s. Within Plathâs collection of poems, Ariel, published in 1965, two years after her death in 1963, we see her adopt different personas, standpoints and tones. The speakers often begin oppressed and manipulated; their roles in society shaped by...

The consistent ethic of life provides a moral framework for principled Catholic engagement in political life and, rightly understood, neither treats all issues morally equivalent nor reduces Catholic teaching to one or two issues. It anchors the Catholic commitment to defend human life, from conception until natural death, in the fundamental moral obligation to respect the dignity of every person as a child of God. It unities us as a 'people of life and for life' pledged to build what...

For the arbitrators, criminal law is a mandatory rule of law. Under this scenario, tribunalâs obligation to investigate will be relevant in light of several considerations: jurisdiction, arbitrability, and enforceability of the final arbitral...
