In 1904 William Garrott Brown traveled the American South, investigating the region's political, economic, and social conditions.

The South at Work is a compilation of these newspaper articles, providing a valuable snapshot of the South as it was simultaneously emerging from post-Civil War economic depression and imposing on African Americans the panoply of Jim Crow laws and customs that sought to exclude them from all but the lowest rungs of Southern society. A...

Security in Post-Conflict Africa: The Role of Nonstate Policing
ISBN: 9781138112292 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Policing is undergoing rapid change in Africa as a result of democratization, the commercialization of security, conflicts that disrupt policing services, and peace negotiations among former adversaries. These factors combined with the inability of Africa's state police to provide adequate protection have resulted in the continuing popularity of various forms of nonstate policing. Based on six years of field work, Professor Bruce Baker presents his findings on eight African countries in Security in Post Conflict Africa: The Role of Nonstate Policing. How well does nonstate policing work?...

Academic studies of the Civil War and historical memory abound, ensuring a deeper understanding of how the war s meaning has shifted over time and the implications of those changes for concepts of race, citizenship, and nationhood.

English Seigniorial Agriculture, 1250-1450
ISBN: 9780521026420 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 548 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bruce Campbell's book is the first single-authored treatment of medieval English agriculture on a national scale. Methodologically innovative, it deals comprehensively with the cultivation carried out by or for lords on their demesne farms, for which the documentation is more detailed and abundant than for any other agricultural group either during the medieval period or later. A context is thereby assured for all future scholarship on the medieval and early agrarian economies. The book also makes a substantive contribution to ongoing historical debates.
