Nina Berman looks carefully at the repercussions that these economic and social interactions have brought to life on the Kenyan coast. She explores what happens when poorer and less powerful members of a community are forced to give way to profit-based real estate development, what it means when most of Diani's schools and water resources are supplied by funds...

ISBN: 9780803213340 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Thisstudy of the German presence in Africa in the modern period exposes forms of cultural domination that derive from a philosophy of progress and good intentions.

In/Visible War: The Culture of War in Twenty-First-Century America
ISBN: 9780813585376 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In/Visible War addresses a paradox of twenty-first century American warfare. The contemporary visual American experience of war is ubiquitous, and yet war is simultaneously invisible or absent; we lack a lived sense that "America" is at war. This paradox of in/visibility concerns the gap between the experiences of war zones and the visual, mediated experience of war in public, popular culture, which absents and renders invisible the former. Large portions of the domestic public experience war only at a distance. For these citizens, war seems abstract, or may even seem to have...
