ISBN: 9788322643341 / Polski / broszurowa / 2024 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Choć w ciągu ostatnich lat, wraz z narastaniem obaw dotyczących zmian klimatycznych, branża węglowa postrzegana jest negatywnie, to jako spadkobiercy rewolucji przemysłowej wszyscy skorzystaliśmy na wydobyciu czarnego złota.

Such postcolonial interpretations that focus on single dimensions of identity risk disregarding the sense of displacement, discontinuities, and discomforts that compromised everyday life for the British in India-the Anglo-Indians-during the Raj. Imperialism as Diaspora reconsiders the urgencies, governing principles, and modes of being of the Anglo-Indians by approaching Britain's...
