The Student Revolt, 1964-71 -- A Whole Different Ball Game, 1968-81 -- George Shultz at the Negotiating Table -- Doing the Lord's Work.Ronald Schatz tells the story of the team of young economists and lawyers whom George W. Taylor recruited to the National War Labor Board to resolve union-management conflicts during the Second World War. The crew (including Clark Kerr, John Dunlop, Jean McKelvey, and Marvin Miller) exerted broad influence on the U.S. economy and society for the next 40 years. They handled thousands of grievances and strikes. They founded academic industrial relations programs. When the 1960s student movement erupted, universities appointed them as top administrators charged with quelling the conflicts. In the 1970s, they developed systems that advanced public sector unionisation and revolutionised employment conditions in Major League Baseball. Schatz argues that the Labor Board vets, who saw themselves as disinterested technocrats, were in truth utopian reformers aiming to transform the world.Working class in American history.Illinois scholarship online.Industrial relationsUnited StatesHistory20th centuryLabor laws and legislationUnited StatesHistory20th centuryLaborUnited StatesHistory20th centuryIndustrial relationsHistoryLabor laws and legislationHistoryLaborHistory331.0973Schatz Ronald W.1949-1556375StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910795395003321The Labor Board crew3819006UNINA04365nam 2200673 450 991082815230332120200520144314.00-691-00927-91-4008-4973-X10.1515/9781400849734(CKB)2550000001137896(EBL)1441401(DE-B1597)447477(OCoLC)868973300(OCoLC)922665991(DE-B1597)9781400849734(Au-PeEL)EBL1441401(CaPaEBR)ebr10787686(CaONFJC)MIL537598(OCoLC)869091078(MiAaPQ)EBC1441401(EXLCZ)99255000000113789620131106d2006 uy 0engur|n|---|||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierMechanistic home range analysis /Paul R.

Future Directions and Synthesis -- Appendixes -- References -- IndexSpatial patterns of movement are fundamental to the ecology of animal populations, influencing their social organization, mating systems, demography, and the spatial distribution of prey and competitors. However, our ability to understand the causes and consequences of animal home range patterns has been limited by the descriptive nature of the statistical models used to analyze them. In Mechanistic Home Range Analysis, Paul Moorcroft and Mark Lewis develop a radically new framework for studying animal home range patterns based on the analysis of correlated random work models for individual movement behavior. They use this framework to develop a series of mechanistic home range models for carnivore populations. The authors' analysis illustrates how, in contrast to traditional statistical home range models that merely describe pattern, mechanistic home range models can be used to discover the underlying ecological determinants of home range patterns observed in populations, make accurate predictions about how spatial distributions of home ranges will change following environmental or demographic disturbance, and analyze the functional significance of the movement strategies of individuals that give rise to observed patterns of space use. By providing researchers and graduate students of ecology and wildlife biology with a more illuminating way to analyze animal movement, Mechanistic Home Range Analysis will be an indispensable reference for years to come.Monographs in Population BiologyAnimal behaviorMathematical modelsHome range (Animal geography)Mathematical modelsZoogeographyMathematical modelsAnimal behaviorMathematical models.Home range (Animal geography)Mathematical models.ZoogeographyMathematical models.591.5WI 2100rvkMoorcroft Paul1969-1625093Lewis M(Mark),1962-756111MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828152303321Mechanistic home range analysis3960399UNINA
