Considerations on Representative Government
John Stuart Mill (1806-1873), a British philosopher, political economist, civil servant and Member of Parliament, was an influential liberal thinker of the 19th century. He was an advocate of utilitarianism, the ethical theory of his godfather, Jeremy Bentham, but his conception of it was very different from that of Bentham. His father's History of India was published in 1818; immediately thereafter, about the age of twelve, Mill began a thorough study of the scholastic logic, at the same time reading Aristotle's logical treatises in the original language. A contemporary record of his studies from eight to thirteen is published in Bain's sketch of his life. It suggests that his autobiography rather understates the amount of work done. His works include Essays on Some Unsettled Questions of Political Economy (1844), Thoughts on Parliamentary Reform (1859), Auguste Comte and Positivism (1865), Considerations on Representative Government (1861), The Contest in America (1862), and Utilitarianism (1863).

Building a Representative Theater Corpus
The Digital Parisian Stage Project aims to compile a corpus of plays that are representative of performances in the theaters of Paris through history. This book surveys existing corpora that cover the nineteenth century, lays out the issue of corpus representativeness in detail, and, using a random sample of plays from this period, presents two case studies of language in use in the Napoleonic era. It presents a compelling argument for the compilation and use of representative corpora in linguistic study, and will be of interest to those working in the fields of corpus linguistics, digital humanities, and history of the theater.

Negotiating Identity in Modern Foreign Language Teaching
This edited book examines modern foreign language teachers who research their own and others’ experiences of identity construction in the context of living and teaching in UK institutions, primarily in the Higher Education sector. The book offers an insight into a key element of the educational and socio-political debate surrounding MFL in the UK: the teachers’ voices and their sense of agency in constructing their professional identities. The contributors use a combination of empirical research and personal reflection to generate knowledge about MFL teachers’ identity that can enhance how they are perceived in the social and educational establishments and raise awareness of key issues affecting the profession. This book will be of particular interest to language teachers, teacher trainers, applied linguists and students and scholars of modern foreign languages.

Power in Language, Culture, Literature and Education
In one of the contributions to this edited volume an interviewee argues that "English is power". For researchers in the field of English Studies this raises the questions of where the power of English resides and which types and practices of power are implied in the uses of English. Linguists, scholars of literature and culture, and language educators address aspects of these questions in a wide range of contributions. The book shows that the power of English can oscillate between empowerment and subjection, on the one hand enabling humans to develop manifold capabilities and on the other constraining their scope of action and reflection. In this edited volume, a case is made for self-critical English Studies to be dialogic, empowering and power-critical in approach.

Workhorse representative species
Workhorse representative species are those that are commonly used in scientific research, testing, or as model organisms due to their well-understood biology and genetics. These species are often chosen for their ease of handling, rapid reproduction rates, and ability to provide valuable insights into biological processes. Examples of workhorse representative species include the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, and the mouse Mus musculus. These species have been instrumental in advancing our understanding of genetics, development, and disease.

What distinguishes a class representative from a deputy class representative?
A class representative is typically the primary point of contact between the students and the faculty or administration. They are responsible for representing the interests and concerns of the class as a whole. On the other hand, a deputy class representative serves as a backup or support to the class representative, assisting with their duties and stepping in when needed. While both roles involve advocating for the class, the class representative generally has more responsibilities and decision-making authority compared to the deputy class representative.

Delivering Citizenship
The 21st century promises to be an "Age of Mobility." More people around the globe, from an ever greater variety of backgrounds, are migrating. As Europe and North America absorb larger and more diverse inflows, many policymakers, commentators, and academics are questioning whether their societies can cope with the influx. Citizenship has emerged as one of the key policy battlegrounds for such concerns. Citizenship lies at the nexus of a host of social policy issues because it provides definitions of identity, belonging, and participation in key aspects of society, including the right to vote. Governments recognize the urgent need to understand citizenship better. Once a narrow, somewhat static legal backwater, citizenship has become a dynamic policy vehicle for promoting the political incorporation of immigrants and, by extension, their more complete integration. This book is the first major product of the Transatlantic Council on Migration. It offers insights into key aspects of the citizenship debate from a policy perspective. It is a result of the deliberations and thinking of the Transatlantic Council on Migration, which brings together leading political figures, policymakers and innovative thinkers from the USA and Europe. The Council is a new initiative of the Migration Policy Institute (MPI) in Washington, DC. The Bertelsmann Stiftung and the European Policy Centre (in cooperation with the King Baudouin Foundation) are the Council's policy partners.

Myśli nowoczesnego Polaka
"Od dawna już mam poczucie tego, że nasz systemat politycznego myślenia — o ile o takim może być mowa — w przeważnej mierze zbudowany jest na fałszach. W najważniejszych sprawach, w kwestjach dotyczących samej istoty naszego narodowego bytu, naszego stosunku do innych narodów i naszych widoków na samoistną przyszłość, polityczną i cywilizacyjną — zadawalniają nas zupełnie a nawet najlepiej nam smakują sądy, którym rzeczywistość zadaje kłam na każdym kroku. (...) Przez porównanie swego narodu z obcymi przekonałem się, że wiele z tych kłamstw naszą tylko myśl zatruwa, że niedorzeczności, które gdzieindziej powtarzane są tylko przez stare panny i w ogóle przez jednostki, żyjące po za społeczeństwem, odgrodzone od realnego życia, u nas stanowią podstawę myślenia ludzi poważnych, kierowników opinji i przodowników pracy publicznej, którzy na nich budują sądy dziejowe i nadzieje polityczne."
