""Who exactly are the 'intellectuals'? This term is so widely used today that we forget that it is a recent invention, dating from the late nineteenth century. In Birth of the Intellectuals, the renowned historian and sociologist Christophe Charle shows that the term 'intellectuals' first appeared at the time of the Dreyfus Affair, and the neologism originally signified a cultural and political vanguard who dared to challenge the status quo. Yet the word, expected to disappear once the political crisis had dissolved, has somehow endured. At times it describes a social group, and at others a way of seeing the social world from the perspective of universal values that challenges established hierarchies. But why did intellectuals survive when the events that gave rise to this term had faded into the past? To answer this question, it is necessary to show how the crisis of the old representations, the unprecedented expansion of the intellectual professions and the vacuum left by the decline of the traditional ruling class created favourable conditions for the collective affirmation of 'intellectuals.' This also explains why the literary or academic avant garde traditionally reluctant to engage gradually reconciled themselves with political activists and developed new ways to intervene in the field of power outside of traditional political channels. Through a careful rereading of the petitions surrounding the Dreyfus Affair, Charle offers a radical reinterpretation of this crucial moment of European history and develops a new model for understanding the ways in which public intellectuals in France, Germany, Britain, and the United States have addressed politics ever since"--From publisher's website."

"Once the jewel in the crown of the formidable British Empire, India has been surrounded by myth for years. After gaining independence in 1948, this often misunderstood country found itself faced with a new sense of freedom - and along with it, enormous burdens and challenges. While exotic, mysterious, and seductive, it has also become an economic force to be reckoned with.

"Case study research has a long history within the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities, dating back to the early 1920’s. At first it was a useful way for researchers to make valid inferences from events outside the laboratory in ways consistent with the rigorous practices of investigation inside the lab. Over time, case study approaches garnered interest in multiple disciplines as scholars studied phenomena in context. Despite widespread use, case study research has received little attention among the literature on research strategies.The Encyclopedia of Case Study Research provides a compendium on the important methodological issues in conducting case study research and explores both the strengths and weaknesses of different paradigmatic approaches. These two volumes focus on the distinctive characteristics of case study research and its place within and alongside other research methodologies.Key FeaturesTypes of Case Study Research"

Integrated water resource management through pipe networks requires an optimal approach to achieve sustainable access to safe drinking water. The problem with this research is that there are still gaps.

The short story Iron Child is one of the short stories in Mo Yan's The Sin (2002). The short story Iron Child tells about the character Gou Sheng who experiences childhood life in the People's Commune and then meets the character "Iron Child". This study emphasizes the importance of the intrinsic elements of the story, especially the characters and setting, to reveal the social conditions during the Great Leap Forward period of 1958-1962. The character of Gou Sheng is a key character to reveal various things depicted through the short story. He not only represents the life of children, but also reveals the social conditions recorded in the short story related to life during the Great Leap Forward. Anak Besi depicts the psychological and physical impact of government policies on families and communities. This short story also proves Mo Yan's sharpness as an author in seeing the social conditions in China during the Great Leap Forward, especially through the perspective of the life lived by a child named Gou Sheng. This research not only enriches the understanding of Chinese history, but also expands the potential of literary studies as an alternative source in historical research."
