Ethnic Minorities Reject the Remote State
Opposition to the state provision of schooling is commonly seen as coming from middle-class parents who expect their chiren to be ‘achievers’ Roger Homan, Principal Lecturer in Education of Brighton Polytechnic, reveals how this offifude patronises workers and ethnic minorities alike, and examines their spontaneous efforts to provide independent independent education for their children
Race, the new right and state policy in Britain
Much has been written about the ‘New Right’ and ‘new’ racism. However, it is apparent that the content of current emphases ignores both the complexities of New Right’ ideology and its use of perspectives and attitudes from earlier periods. Indeed, it appears that ‘race’ is not, at least in practical terms, a leading feature of Thatcherite government and policy, despite certain well‐publicized instances and the rhetoric of critics of the ‘New Right’. Where there has been a clash of ideologies, it has been more at the level of the local state, particularly in the area of anti‐racist strategies. It is argued that opposition to certain of these strategies is aided by their inappropriateness for the nature of British society in the late 1980s.
Characterization of Aqueous Dispersions and Gels Made of Sodium Caseinate and Basil Seed Gum: Phase Behavior, Rheology, and Microstructure
The interactions between sodium caseinate (NaCas) and basil seed gum (BSG) in the presence of calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ) were investigated. The phase behavior of the mixed aqueous dispersions and their gels revealed a homogeneous mixture, obtained at the higher concentrations of both CaCl 2 and BSG. The Herschel-Bulkley model sufficiently fitted the flow behavior of the mixture solution data. Apparent viscosity increased significantly ( p  < 0.05) by increasing the concentration of BSG, where the addition of CaCl 2 had no significant effect on the viscosity of the samples ( p  > 0.05). Furthermore, there was an increase in thixotropy due to the higher concentrations of BSG and CaCl 2 . Based on the frequency sweep test, at the low frequencies, a more gel-like behavior was observed in the case of the higher concentrations of either BSG or CaCl 2 . The rheological and SEM data suggested that the stronger structure of NaCas-BSG gel in the presence of the higher concentrations of CaCl 2 was related to the induction of complex formation between the two biopolymers.
