A Revolution to Win: The Founders' Solution to the Present Crisis
ISBN: 9781478154082 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A look at how the crisis facing Americans in the new milennium is the result of historic forces which have concentrated power in the hands of the few. Democracy in America is being subverted by the rise of a plutocracy, in which Washington insiders play special interest politics to get their piece of the pie. In the process, they sell out Main Street to bail out Wall Street. How can government by the people be restored in America? A nearly forgotten proposed amendment to the U.S. Constitution, a gift handed down by the Founders in the after-glow of the American Revolution, offers a simple way...

Marginality, Power and Social Structure: Issues in Race, Class, and Gender Analysis
ISBN: 9780762302772 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The articles in this book are intended to be a much-needed corrective to the literature on marginality. In the recent past, and at present, the concept of marginality has been used with little specificity, and when used with specificity, the delineation of the complex dimensions of the term has been less than satisfactory. To illustrate the many ways in which marginality exists and operates in many societies Rutledge Dennis has assembled a rich array of articles designed to highlight the history and evolution of the concept of marginality along with the theorists, issues and situations which...

The Epic Trickster in American Literature: From Sunjata to So(u)L
ISBN: 9780415636926 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Just as Africa and the West have traditionally fit into binaries of Darkness/Enlightenment, Savage/Modern, Ugly/Beautiful, and Ritual/Art, among others, much of Western cultural production rests upon the archetypal binary of Trickster/Epic, with trickster aesthetics and commensurate cultural forms characterizing Africa. Challenging this binary and the exceptionalism that underlies anti-hegemonic efforts even today, this book begins with the scholarly foundations that mapped out African trickster continuities in the United States and excavated the aesthetics of traditional African epic...

In America Apart: The Inconvenient Truth about Multiculturalism and Racism Today, James R. Long exposes the myths that are leading America toward a reckoning from which it may not be able to recover. Long contends that a nation comprised of different races - sans identity politics - could work, but that a nation comprised of different cultures will not. The evidence for his sweeping argument incorporates psychology, history, economics and Long's own personal experiences in what he calls the dungeon of diversity, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. America Apart begins with a frank... In America Apart: The Inconvenient Truth about Multiculturalism and Racism Today, James R. Long exposes the myths that are leading America toward a... |

Leadership is one of the most diverse topics discussed in the corporate arena as well as ministry. We often describe the church as a business. If this is true, we really need to redefine the roots of our existence. As a body, what do we really believe? What makes a good leader? What do we need to do to nurture this in corporate America as well as the church? The meaning of leadership is broad but narrow enough to provide specific qualities. This book will explore the beliefs of several prominent leadership theories while providing meaning and understanding of various leadership styles. One of...

Habitations of the Veil: Metaphor and the Poetics of Black Being in African American Literature
ISBN: 9781438449326 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Habitations of the Veil, Rebecka Rutledge Fisher uses theory implicit in W. E. B. Du Bois's use of metaphor to draw out and analyze what she sees as a long tradition of philosophical metaphor in African American literature. She demonstrates how Olaudah Equiano, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, and Ralph Ellison each use metaphors to develop a critical discourse capable of overcoming the limits of narrative language to convey their lived experiences. Fisher's philosophical investigations open these texts to consideration on ontological and...

With Dawn Heinecken The mute gestures of advertising images are frozen for posterity by photographers and illustrators, gestures that, for better or worse, perpetuate a certain aesthetic and eventually become emblematic of a period. The images of today display the values of a society that has more interest in the body than the mind. They are technoenhanced labyrinths of unattainable appearances that leave women and men feeling horrified, estranged, and restricted by unrealistic, silent mandates. Measuring Up looks...
