Race, Space, and Riots in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles
ISBN: 9780195328752 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) American society has been long plagued by cycles of racial violence, most dramatically in the 1960s when hundreds of ghetto uprisings erupted across American cities. Though the larger, underlying causes of contentious race relations have remained the same, the lethality, intensity, and outcomes of these urban rebellions have varied widely. What accounts for these differences? And what lessons can be learned that might reduce the destructive effects of riots and move race relations forward? This impressive, meticulously detailed study is the first attempt to compare six major race riots...

Rabat: Urban Apartheid in Morocco
ISBN: 9780691642932 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 406 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Making provocative use of the term apartheid," Janet Abu-Lughod argues that French colonial policies in Moroccan cities effectively segregated Moroccans from Europeans.

The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these...

Abu-Lughod (ur. 1928) należy do grupy amerykańskich uczonych, którzy w swej pracy naukowej, podjęli się badania zagadnień teorii tzw. systemów-światów. Autorka w swej analizie, dowodzi, że już w trzynastym wieku, a ściślej mówiąc na przestrzeni stulecia (1250-1350), na obszarze Eurazji, funkcjonował, formujący się od jedenastego wieku, przednowożytny „światowy system” wymiany handlowej, który obejmował swym zasięgiem trzy wysoko rozwinięte kręgi cywilizacyjne: chrześcijańską Europę Zachodnią, islamski Bliski Wschód oraz Daleki Wschód (wraz z...

Before European Hegemony: The World System A.D. 1250-1350
ISBN: 9780195067743 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In this important study, Abu-Lughod presents a groundbreaking reinterpretation of global economic evolution, arguing that the modern world economy had its roots not in the sixteenth century, as is widely supposed, but in the thirteenth century economy--a system far different from the European world system which emerged from it. Using the city as the working unit of analysis, Before European Hegemony provides a new paradigm for understanding the evolution of world systems by tracing the rise of a system that, at its peak in the opening decades of the 14th century, involved a vast...

From Urban Village to East Village
ISBN: 9781557865250 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) This landmark study explores a new reality in today's inner cities - one that diverges radically from the dominant models of either the urban village, with its shared culture, or the disorganized zone of urban anomie.
Growing numbers of inner city neighbourhoods now contain populations drawn from a multiplicity of ethnicities, subcultures, and classes. These groups may share physical space, but they pursue disparate ways of life and hold very different views of their neighbourhood's future. Such areas have become contested turf - arenas of heated political struggle. ...
