ISBN: 9780226001975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. How do people come to think of themselves as part of a nation? "Dramas of Nationhood" identifies a fantastic cultural form that binds together the Egyptian nation television serials. These melodramatic programs like soap operas but more closely tied to political and social issues than their Western counterparts have been shown on television in Egypt for more than thirty years. In this book, Lila Abu-Lughod examines the shifting politics of these serials and the way their contents both reflect and seek to direct the changing course of Islam, gender relations, and everyday life in this Middle...

Remaking Women: Feminism and Modernity in the Middle East
ISBN: 9780691057927 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Contrary to popular perceptions, newly veiled women across the Middle East are just as much products and symbols of modernity as the upper- and middle-class women who courageously took off the veil almost a century ago. To make this point, these essays focus on the "woman question" in the Middle East (most particularly in Egypt and Iran), especially at the turn of the century, when gender became a highly charged nationalist issue tied up in complex ways with the West. The last two decades have witnessed an extraordinary burst of energy and richness in Middle East women's studies, and the...

Veiled Sentiments: Honor and Poetry in a Bedouin Society
ISBN: 9780520292499 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. First published in 1986, Lila Abu-Lughod's Veiled Sentiments has become a classic ethnography in the field of anthropology. During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Abu-Lughod lived with a community of Bedouins in the Western Desert of Egypt for nearly two years, studying gender relations, morality, and the oral lyric poetry through which women and young men express personal feelings. The poems are haunting, the evocation of emotional life vivid. But Abu-Lughod's analysis also reveals how deeply implicated poetry and sentiment are in the play of power and the maintenance of social...

The Cunning of Gender Violence: Geopolitics and Feminism
ISBN: 9781478019954 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Cunning of Gender Violence focuses on how a once visionary feminist project has folded itself into contemporary world affairs. Combating violence against women and gender-based violence constitutes a highly visible and powerful agenda enshrined in international governance and law and embedded in state violence and global securitization. Case studies on Palestine, Bangladesh, Iran, India, Pakistan, Israel, and Turkey as well as on UN and US policies trace the silences and omissions, along with the experiences of those subjected to violence, to question the rhetoric that claims the agenda...

The Lotus Blossom
ISBN: 9781512771138 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Louise Farrell was homesick. She had seen hundreds of examples of ancient architecture, mosques, and Hindu shrines. She was bone-tired and irritable, tired of the culture, the filth and poverty, the red dirt piled about everywhere, the crowds of humanity, and the odor of chapattis being baked over cow dung fires. Truth be said, she was eager to return to the clean, wide-open spaces of the Flint Hills of Kansas. Although her husband Richard had been told that no one could capture the essence of India in the written word, he had notebooks filled with his impressions of the history,...

Does "Excess" Dietary Salt Cause Cardiovascular Toxicity?
ISBN: 9780991005550 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Salt is essential to human health but it has also been a topic of concern for the American Heart Association and the National Institutes of Health, who advise dramatic restrictions in some medical patients and restrictions across the board, even for healthy people. Yet their recommendations are based on inconsistent data that match diaries recalling food intake with health outcomes and they ignore studies defying it. It's a case where nutritional ideology has pushed out the science consensus, and ignores individual responses to salt. In Does "Excess" Dietary Salt Cause Cardiovascular...
