He was called to the Bar by the Inner Temple in 1889, and in the following year was enrolled as an advocate of the Calcutta High Court. He was soon made a Fellow of the Calcutta University and appointed Tagore Law Professor. He collaborated with Ameer Ali in a widely used textbook, Civil Procedure in British India. He was appointed Standing Counsel to the Government of India in 1902, and in 1904 was raised to the High Court Bench. He served there for eighteen years, becoming Chief Justice in 1915.

‎Frankfurt am Main ; Bern ; Wien : Peter Lang, 2018. 314 S., Abb., Tab. Originalhardcover.‎

‎Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - This book provides timely insights into the lives of Polish migrants who have been settling in Norway with their partners and children, especially over the last decade. It brings together Polish and Norwegian scholars who shed light on the key areas of migrant family practices in the transnational space. The contributors critically assess social capital of those living mobile lives, discuss the role of institutions, as well as engage with the broad problematics of caring ? both with regard to migrant children raised in Norway, and the elderly kin members left behind in Poland. Further, the authors tackle the question of the possibilities and constrains of integration, pointing to several areas of policy implications of transnationalism for both Poland and Norway. - Contents: Krystyna Iglicka, Katarzyna Gmaj & Antoni Wierzejski: Contextualizing Polish Migration to Norway in the light of theory and statistical data -- Eugene Guribye: Two waves, two contexts:: On the changing conditions for social networking among Polish migrants in Norway -- Jakub M.

‎Im Weltinnenraum des Kapitals : für eine philosophische Theorie der Globalisierung. 1. Aufl.‎

‎Frankfurt am Main : Suhrkamp, 2005. 415 S. ; 21 cm. Originalleinen mit illustr. Schutzumschlag.‎

‎Gutes Ex. - EA. - Der Verknüpfung von Erzählung und Philosophieren, dem hervorstechenden Merkmal der Bücher Peter Sloterdijks, ist es zu verdanken, daß zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts etwas Grundstürzendes über Globalisierung zu erfahren ist. Denn der Autor nimmt die mit der Vorstellung der Erde als Globus verbundenen historisch-philosophischen Konsequenzen ernst und gelangt zur These: Was als Globalisierung gelobt oder verschrien wird, ist die Endphase eines mit der ersten Erdumrundung einsetzenden Prozesses. Und: Es lassen sich bereits Elemente für eine neue Epoche jenseits der Globalisierung registrieren. In der Endphase der Globalisierung hat sich das Weltsystem vollständig entwickelt und bestimmt als kapitalistisches die gesamten Lebensverhältnisse. Der Londoner Kristallpalast, Ort der ersten Weltausstellung 1851, dient Peter Sloterdijk als ausdrucksstärkste Meta-pher für diese Situation: Der Palast stellt die unvermeidliche Exklusivität der Globalisierung, die Errichtung eines Komfortgebildes, vor Augen, also den Auf- und Ausbau eines Weltinnenraums, dessen Grenzen unsichtbar, von außen jedoch nahezu unüberwindbar sind und der von anderthalb Milliarden Globalisierungsgewinnern bewohnt wird - die dreifache Zahl von Menschen steht vor der Tür.

‎Über vier Jahrzehnte hinweg widmete sich Peter Sloterdijk Morgen für Morgen einem Tagebuch besonderen Typs: In linierten DIN A4 Heften hielt er handschriftlich fest, was ihm am vergangenen Tag aufgefallen war und was ihm bevorstand. Eine Veröffentlichung der Notate zog er nicht in Betracht. ?Datierte Notizen? entstanden durch dieses Schreiben-für-sich-selbst, eine melancholisch-fröhliche Zeitgenossenschaft zeigt sich in ihnen die Denktagebuch, intellektuelle Komödie und gesellschaftliche Tragödie auf einzigartige Weise miteinander verknüpfen. Peter Sloterdijk schrieb in den wie um ihrer selbst geführten Tagebüchern mit und gegen die Ereignisse, richtete seine Aufmerksamkeit auf die großen Zusammenhänge und die versteckten Details; zur frühen Stunde entstanden außergewöhnliche Kurzessays und ironische Aphorismen, bissige Kommentare und zurückhaltende Lobgesänge. Ende des Jahres 2011 entschloß sich der Tagebuchschreiber, seine Notizen öffentlich zu machen: Er nahm sich Heft 100 aus dem Jahre 2008 vor und transkribierte seine Niederschriften, Zeilen und Tage, bis zum Ende des Jahres 2010.

‎Between Two Stools: Scatology and Its Representations in English Literature, Chaucer to Swift‎

‎8vo, pp.304. Between two stools investigates the representation of scatology - humorous, carnivalesque, satirical, damning and otherwise - in English literature from the middle ages to the eighteenth century. Smith contends that the 'two stools' stand for two broadly distinctive attitudes towards scatology. The first is a carnivalesque, merry, even hearty disposition, typified by the writings of Chaucer and Shakespeare. The second is self-disgust, an attitude characterised by withering misanthropy and hypochondria. Smith demonstrates how the combination of high and low cultures manifests the capacity to run canonical and carnivalesque together so that sanctioned and civilised artefacts and scatological humour frequently co-exist in the works under discussion, evidence of an earlier culture's aptitude (now lost) to occupy a position between two stools. Of interest to cultural and literary historians, this ground-breaking study testifies to the arrival of scatology as an academic subject, at the same time recognising that it remains if not outside, then at least at the margins of conventional scholarship.‎

‎Decolonizing Methodologies : Research and Indigenous Peoples‎

‎ix, 208 pages ; 22 cm bibliographical references and index. "From the vantage point of the colonized, the term 'research' is inextricably linked with European colonialism; the way in which scientific research has been implicated in the worst excesses of imperialism remains a powerful remembered history for many of the world's colonized peoples. Here, an indigenous researcher issues a clarion call for the decolonization of research methods. In the first part of the book, the author critically examines the historical and philosophical base of Western research. Extending the work of Foucault, she explores the intersections of imperialism, knowledge and research; en route she provides a history of knowledge from the Enlightenment to postcoloniality. The second part of the book meets an urgent demand: people who are carrying out their own research projects need literature which validates their frustrations in dealing with various Western paradigms. In setting an agenda for planning and implementing indigenous research, the author shows how such programmes are part of the wider project of reclaiming control over indigenous ways of knowing and being." óPublisher. / Contents: 1.
