ISBN: 9780813570365 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this innovative new study, Laura Halperin examines literary representations of harm inflicted on Latinas' minds and bodies, and on the places Latinas inhabit, but she also explores how hope can be found amid so much harm.

Intersections of Harm is more than just a nuanced examination of the...

ISBN: 9783319362564 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This volume works explores a transferable theory of a specific social-psychological infrastructure, based on the work of Dr. Daniel Bar-Tal, that develops from cultures immersed in intractable conflicts.

Falling Through the Music
ISBN: 9780268030810 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In "Falling Through the Music", his fifth major book of poetry, Mark Halperin gives us consolation, guidance, and companionship while delivering an accomplished meditation on the first real glimpses of the limits on a life. Displaying an agility of formal invention - he moves easily from a Whitmanesque and witty litany to rhymed quatrains - Halperin deftly melds technique to theme. As in "Someone Pausing," he is able to place us in the mind of someone - any one of us - who has stood on an island in the street, fully attentive and present, knowing nothing stays, not even the observer.

It explores the imprint that imperial institutions, organisational principles, practices, and logics have left on the modern world....

Reviewing 40 years of hard, empirical data, from China and India to Chile and Iraq, the authors show that poor democracies beat poor autocracies in every economic measure.

'This valuable and timely volume obliterates the myth beloved of dictators that democracy is somehow the enemy of development rather than an essential ally. Here is a treasury of evidence that freedom is not only right - it works.' - Madeline Albright, former US Secretary of State For decades, policies pursued by the US and other industrialized nations towards the developing world have been based on a dirty little secret among policy experts: democracy and development don't mix. Turning this long-held view on its head, The Democracy Advantage makes a bold case that they do. In this timely,...

Babel in Zion: Jews, Nationalism, and Language Diversity in Palestine, 1920-1948
ISBN: 9780300197488 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The promotion and vernacularization of Hebrew, traditionally a language of Jewish liturgy and study, was a central accomplishment of the Zionist movement in Palestine. Viewing twentieth-century history through the lens of language, author Liora Halperin questions the accepted scholarly narrative of a Zionist move away from multilingualism during the years following World War I, demonstrating how Jews in Palestine remained connected linguistically by both preference and necessity to a world outside the boundaries of the pro-Hebrew community even as it promoted Hebrew and achieved that...

Perceived Stressors by High-Risk Pregnant Women on Bed Rest
ISBN: 9783639285413 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.

Sandra Halperin traces the persistence of traditional class structures in the course of the development of industrial capitalism in Europe and the way the structures influenced state behavior and generated conflict. Halperin focuses on the interrelationship of social forces, industrial expansion, and conflict in Europe between 1789 and 1944 (in part through a critique of Karl Polanyi's The Great Transformation (1944)). Her account of the period challenges not only Polanyi's analysis, but a variety of influential perspectives on nationalism, development, conflict, international systems change,...
