Sommario/riassunto

5.4 million Americans-1 in every 40 voting age adults--are denied the right to participate in democratic elections because of a past or current felony conviction. In several American states, 1 in 4 black men cannot vote due to a felony conviction. In a country that prides itself on universal suffrage, how did the United States come to deny a voice to such a large percentage of its citizenry? What are the consequences of large-scale disenfranchisement--both for election outcomes, and for public policy more generally? ""Locked Out"" exposes one of the most important, yet little known, threats to

Sommario/riassunto

This is a new analysis of the ''daughters'' in the  Gospel of Mark. Betsworth analyzes the ''daughters'' in the  Gospel of Mark : the woman from the crowd - whom Jesus calls daughter, Jairus'' daughter (5:21-

Sommario/riassunto

This book, authored by Dr. Otto Trüdinger and published in 1914, provides an in-depth analysis of agricultural and economic conditions in Württemberg, Germany. It offers a detailed examination of the region's geography, climate, and soil diversity, which influence agricultural practices and outputs. The text discusses livestock, milk production, and distribution, focusing on fresh milk sales and pricing. It also covers municipal milk supply systems and regulatory frameworks in cities like Stuttgart, Ulm, and Heilbronn. The book explores demographic and occupational shifts, noting the increasing industrialization and its impact on agricultural employment. Intended for economists, agriculturalists, and historians, it serves as a resource for understanding early 20th-century agricultural economics in Württemberg.
