Chinodya explores the powerful draw that conflicting ideologies exercise over an emerging middle-class that at once yearns for autonomy and unconsciously desires the irresponsibility of an all-pervading destiny. Tracing the Gwanagara?s roots back over a century, Chinodya interweaves past and the present, juxtaposing incidents never forgotten or resolved, revealing how memory becomes an actor in lived time.

In a world dominated by austerity politics and policies, Advising in austerity provides a lively and thought-provoking account of the conditions, consequences and challenges of advice work in the UK, presenting a rare and rich view of the world of advice giving. Based on original research it examines how advisors negotiate the private troubles of those who come to Citizens Advice Bureaux (CAB) and construct ways forward. Exploring how advisors are trained, the strong contributor team reflect on the challenges facing Citizens Advice Bureaux in the future, where austerity will ensure that the need for advice services increase, while funding for such services declines.Poverty & unemploymentbicsscCivil rights & citizenshipbicsscdebtlawcitizenscitizens adviceausterityAcasCase studyEmployment tribunalHomelessnessLabour lawLegal aidSolicitorUnfair dismissalPoverty & unemploymentCivil rights & citizenshipKirwan Samueledt1237903Kirwan SamuelothDE-B1597DE-B15979910634070003321Advising in austerity: Reflections on challenging times for advice agencies3013417UNINA03015nam 2200625Ia 450 991077762150332120230421045119.00-19-771116-21-280-52572-X0-19-802337-51-4294-0109-5(CKB)1000000000465649(EBL)270950(OCoLC)466423975(SSID)ssj0000101556(PQKBManifestationID)11111488(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000101556(PQKBWorkID)10042424(PQKB)11546709(Au-PeEL)EBL270950(CaPaEBR)ebr10142162(CaONFJC)MIL52572(MiAaPQ)EBC270950(EXLCZ)99100000000046564919970207d1997 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAltered states[electronic resource] the United States and Japan since the occupation /Michael SchallerNew York Oxford University Press19971 online resource (337 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-19-506916-1 Includes bibliographical references (p. 297-300) and index.Contents; Prologue; 1.
