AIDS and Power: Why There Is No Political Crisis - Yet
ISBN: 9781842777077 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) One in six adults in sub-Saharan Africa will die in their prime of AIDS. It is a stunning cataclysm, plunging life expectancy to pre-modern levels and orphaning millions of children. Yet political trauma does not grip Africa.

Contrary to fearful predictions, the social fabric is not being ripped apart by bands of unsocialized orphan children.

ISBN: 9780195181630 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In 2004, Darfur, Sudan was described as the "world's greatest humanitarian crisis."

Despite vast changes in the nature of famines and in the capacity of response, de Waal's original challenge to humanitarian theory and practice including a focus on the survival...
