They suggest that the authorities were generally expected to control all riots, whatever their causes. There was, however, deep ambivalence about the propriety of using military methods of control, and a belief that such methods could cause considerable bloodshed and damage to the urban fabric.Item Open Access Improving Nature: Remaking Stanley Park’s Forest, 1888-1931(BC Studies, 2008) Kheraj, SeanThis article examines forest policy for Stanley Park in Vancouver, British Columbia from 1888-1931. The author argues that Park Board's forest policy developed with the objective of eliminating or disguising evidence of natural and anthropogenic environmental change, a landscape technique known as facade management. This policy was shaped in large part by a series of insect infestations and the recommendations of federal entomologists from the 1910s to the 1930s.Item Open Access Writing, Ritual, and Folklore: Imagining the Cultural Geography of Voyageurs(Nelson, 2008) Podruchny, CarolynItem Open Access Dellius, the Parthian Campaign, and the Image of Mark Antony(Editions Latomus, 2008) Kelly, BenjaminItem Open Access Nature's Past Episode 001: The Environmental History of the Don River(Network in Canadian History and Environment, 2008-12-10) Kheraj, SeanOn this pilot episode of the show, we introduce listeners to the study environmental history by speaking with Jennifer Bonnell, a graduate student at the University of Toronto who is researching the history of Toronto’s Don River. Jennifer’s research spans the long history of the Don River and its place in the social and environmental history of the city. From nineteenth-century grist mills to Depression-era hobo jungles to Hurricane Hazel in 1954, we find out more about this river valley on Toronto’s eastside. Also, we speak with Adam Crymble, the website administrator for the Network in Canadian History & Environment, about web resources for environmental history at niche-canada.org.Item Open Access Tacitus, Germanicus and the Kings of Egypt (Tac.

O novo regime não reverteu a Revolução de 1933; muito pelo contrário, suas lideranças valeram-se da violência combinada com reformas revolucionárias como forma de incorporar, de maneira compulsória, um número cada vez maior de pessoas em um novo e ampliado sistema estatal de liderança. Fulgencio Batista recebeu o apoio de parte da classe trabalhadora ao longo do período democrático que vigorou durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, mas o anticomunismo da Guerra Fria desestabilizou seu regime, esvaziando o populismo cubano de grande parte da sua substância.Item Open Access 'When the culprits come to light ...': P.IFAO I 26, BGU III 731.ii, and P.Fay. 108(De Gruyter, 2013) Kelly, BenjaminThis paper suggests improved reconstructions for damaged passages in the request sections of three petitions: P. IFAO I 26; BGU III 731.ii; and P. Fay. 108. All three are best interpreted as relating to cases in which the petitioners did not know the identities or whereabouts of the wrongdoers, and therefore requested the registration of petitions so that their claims would be protected when the culprits came to light.Item Open Access Policing and Security(Cambridge University Press, 2013) Kelly, Benjamin
