    Northern Collaboration Learning Exchange on Embedding Open Access

    No full text
    There has been much preparation over the past couple of years to put in place processes to enable compliance with the HEFCE REF Open Access policy that came into force on 1st April 2016. This preparation was itself building on, in many cases, a number of years of Open Access advocacy. Open Access is now better established than it has ever been, particularly within libraries. The further embedding of Open Access within our institutions remains, though, an ongoing task. At this Learning Exchange, those institutions within the Northern Collaboration that have participated in the Jisc Open Access Pathfinder projects over the past two years will share their experience and the findings from this project activity. All the projects have focused in different ways on embedding Open Access within institutional processes and systems. The day will look at embedding from different perspectives: the Open Access lifecycle, APC management, CRIS/repository systems, and general top tips. The exchange is also open to attendees sharing their own practice where this has proved to be effective. Open Access will require local processes, but there is much we can learn from each other to make it the embedded activity we would like it, and need it, to be. Agenda: 10:00 ? Coffee/tea 10:20 ? Welcome ? The HHuLOA project, to include overview of Pathfinder projects 10:30 ? Session 1 ? The Open Access Lifecycle (including different stakeholder perspectives, link to ERM, link to Jisc Monitor services) - the HHuLOA project 11:30 ? Session 2 ? APC management, experiences and practices - Optimising Resources to Develop a Strategic Approach to Open Access project (Northumbria/Sunderland) / Pathways to Open Access project (UCL/Newcastle/Nottingham) 12:30 ? Lunch 1:15 ? Session 3 ? 3 short presentations on capturing data for HEFCE (system, metadata, and process) - EPrints / PURE / Hydra (and open to DSpace input from other sites) - to include input from opeNWorks project (Manchester and northwest partners) and End to End Open Access (e2eoa) project (Glasgow/Lancaster/Kent/Southampton) 2:15 ? Session 4 ? Making Open Access work across our institutions: Pecha Kucha style good practice sharing with input from the projects and an invitation to attendees to share. Volunteers welcome! 3:15 ? Wrap-up and conclusions from the day. A panel from all projects focusing on next steps. 3:45 ? En

    The Russian Bloody Sunday Massacre of 1905: a discursive account of nonviolent transformation

    No full text
    A mass nonviolent protest against the Tsarist autocracy in 1905 led to the Russian Bloody Sunday Massacre where Tsarist forces killed hundreds of civilians. This paper presents a new theoretical perspective of this incident and suggests that the effect of the massacre was of greater importance to both the First Russian Revolution and eventual downfall of the Tsarist Empire than has previously been considered by historians and theorists of nonviolence. The massacre dislocated the Tsarist state to a never before seen extent, enabling political movements to compete in a time of state crisis which arose after the Tsar was stripped of his title of “the Father of the People” and divine monarch. A political process model linked to discourse theoretic explanatory concepts is presented to explain how the Tsar's contradictory ordering of the killing of his greatest supporters, the devout Orthodox peasantry, and workers was fatal for the existence of Tsarism as a political discourse. The model also captures a viral media effect that garnered large-scale domestic and international public sympathy for the St Petersburg social movement. This sheds light on how discursive forces having to do with identity and power play a role in transformative events brought about by nonviolent protest
