Manifesting America
ISBN: 9780195387179 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The expansion of the U.S. in the antebellum period relied on the claim that the nation's boundaries were both self-evident and dependent on the consent of those enclosed within them. While the removal of American Indians and racism toward former Mexicans has been well-documented, little attention has been paid to the legal rhetorics through which the incorporation of these peoples and their territories was justified, portraying them as actively agreeing to come under the authority of the U.S. Yet even as the creation and extension of U.S. jurisdiction functioned as an imperial system, it did...

The Illusion of Certainty: Health Benefits and Risks
ISBN: 9780387485706 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Risk analysis and risk assessment have been with us long enough for the terms to sound familiar to most people. Standard fare for the nuclear power industry and the military for a half a century or more, risk assessment is now a routine aspect of environmental management, public health and individual medical decision making. There have been popular books on risk, and the current poker craze will likely spread risk concepts to an even wider (and younger) audience. Yet, despite all of this extensive and varied experience, we the analysts and practitioners have not done nearly enough to explain...

Beyond Settler Time: Temporal Sovereignty and Indigenous Self-Determination
ISBN: 9780822362975 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. What does it mean to say that Native peoples exist in the present?
