The Politics of Land Reform in Africa
ISBN: 9781842774953 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book examines the trend in Africa today to replace communal forms of customary tenure with Western-type private land tenure arrangements. These are markets in land that treat it as a commodity like any other, and forms of rural credit involving land as collateral. The author develops an aetiology of the main actors in this historic process which is already having huge human consequences. It is likely, if more widely implemented, to transform the face of African rural society towards landlessness, forced migration to big city slums, and rising inequality.

South Africa, Settler Colonialism and the Failures of Liberal Democracy
ISBN: 9781783602247 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. On paper, post-apartheid South Africa is a smoothly functioning liberal democracy, with regular elections, multiple political parties, and a range of progressive social rights. And in a certain sense, that s not untrue. Nonetheless, a darker reality lurks in the background: an all-too-pervasive politics of the extraordinary, where the political discourse relies on threats and violence, and conflicts are presented in starkly racial terms.
In this book, Thiven Reddy exposes that other South Africa, showing how conventional approaches to understanding democratization in the nation have...

As a civilization, we are now very aware of what steps we need to take in order to have any hope of mitigating climate change.

Al-Qaeda: From Global Network to Local Franchise
ISBN: 9781848139091 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Since the attacks of September 11th 2001 and up to and beyond Osama bin Ladin's death, al-Qaeda has come to embody the new enigmatic face of terrorism, dominating discussions of national and international security. Yet in spite of the attention it receives, conflicting assumptions about the group abound. Is al-Qaeda a rigidly structured organization, a global network of semi-independent cells, a franchise, or simply an idea whose time has come? What is meant by talk of the global Salafi jihad that is confronting the West? What are the implications of bin Ladin's death? Christina Hellmich...

Genocide, War Crimes and the West: History and Complicity
ISBN: 9781842771914 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Genocide and war crimes are increasingly the focus of scholarly and activist attention. Much controversy exists over how, precisely, these grim phenomena should be defined and conceptualized.

Many of the authors are eminent scholars and/or renowned activists; in most cases, their... Genocide and war crimes are increasingly the focus of scholarly and activist attention. Much controversy exists over how, precisely, these grim phenom...

Sex, Needs and Queer Culture: From Liberation to the Postgay
ISBN: 9781783605132 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The belief of many in the early sexual liberation movements was that capitalism's investment in the norms of the heterosexual family meant that any challenge to them was invariably anti-capitalist. In recent years, however, lesbian and gay subcultures have become increasingly mainstream and commercialized--as seen, for example, in corporate backing for pride events--while the initial radicalism of sexual liberation has given way to relatively conservative goals over marriage and adoption rights. Meanwhile, queer theory has critiqued this homonormativity, or assimilation, as if some act of...

ISBN: 9781848130371 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. According to many scientists, climate change is a growing threat to life as we know it, requiring a large-scale, immediate response. According to many economists, climate change is a moderately important problem; the best policy is a slow, gradual start, to avoid spending too much. They can't both be right.
In this book, Frank Ackerman offers a refreshing look at the economics of climate change, explaining how the arbitrary assumptions of conventional theories get in the way of understanding this urgent problem. The benefits of climate protection are vital but priceless, and hence often...
