Описание:
All societies around the world and through time value beauty highly. Tracing the evolutions of the Colombian standards of beauty since 1845, Michael Edward Stanfield explores their significance to and symbiotic relationship with violence and inequality in the country. Arguing that beauty holds not only social power but also economic and political power, he positions it as a pacific and inclusive influence in a country “ripped apart by violence, private armies, seizures of land, and abuse of governmental authority, one hoping that female beauty could save it from the ravages of the male beast.” One specific means of obscuring those harsh realities is the beauty pageant, of which Colombia has over 300 per year. Stanfield investigates the ways in which these pageants reveal the effects of European modernity and notions of ethnicity on Colombian women, and how beauty for Colombians has become an external representation of order and morality that can counter the pathological effects of violence, inequality, and exclusion in their country.

Описание: Behind every government there is an impressive team of hard-working government lawyers. In Australia, the Solicitor-General leads that team. A former Attorney-General once said: "The Solicitor-General is next to the High Court and God." And yet, the role of government lawyers in Australia, and specifically the Solicitor-General as the most senior of government lawyers, is under-theorized and under-studied. This book goes behind the scenes of government - drawing from interviews with over 45 government and judicial officials - to uncover the history, theory, and practice of the Australian Solicitor-General. The analysis reveals a role that is of fundamental constitutional importance to ensuring both the legality and the integrity of government action, thus contributing to the achievement of rule of law ideals. The Solicitor-General also works to defend government action and prosecute government policies in the court, and thus performs an important role as messenger between the political and judicial branches of government. But, the Solicitor-General's position, as both an internal integrity check on government and an external warrior for government, gives rise to competing pressures: between the law, politics, and the public interest. The Australian Solicitor-General has evolved many unique characteristics across the almost two centuries of the country's history in an attempt to navigate the tensions inherent in the office. These pressures are not unique to the Australian context. The understanding of the Australian framework provided in the book is informed by, and will inform, comparative analysis of the role of government lawyers across the world.
