Letters from a Son
ISBN: 9781532920585 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. These are the letters sent to my mother, Betty Davis, and father, Wilfred Davis, during my three years and four months in the Marine Corps. The letters from boot camp were written in pencil on a small pocket notebook, usually in five or ten minute spurts. They were jumbled and repetitive and required massive editing to make them readable. I expected to experience a hard three years when I enlisted in the Corps late in 1962. Most of the time I wasn't disappointed. I joined on a "120-Delay Program," along with my high school classmate, Bob Keller. We enlisted in November 1962, shortly after the...

Hamas, Popular Support and War in the Middle East: Insurgency in the Holy Land
ISBN: 9781138927803 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book offers a new understanding of the nature of power-seeking insurgent groups by empirically examining the use of violence by Hamas in the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict. Though Hamas has learned to ride the tides of popular support, it remains suspended between its quest to achieve the values of its ardent supporters (reclamation of land through force) and the desire to grow popular support. This tension is reflected in how and when the group exercises violent resistance. The theoretical framework applied in this volume provides a simple construct to understand the dynamics...

The Myth of Black Ethnicity: Monophylety, Diversity, and the Dilemma of Identity
ISBN: 9781567502923 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the late 1800s W.E.B. Dubois asked what it really means to be black in America. He raised the spectre of divided loyalties and the blurring of individuality that he called Double Consciousness. This volume offers an insight into this dilemma of identity by asking the seemingly rhetorical question, what does O.J. Simpson have in common with the participants in the Million Man March, the jury that set him free, the people who inexplicably cheered his acquittal, the prosecuting attorney, the black Muslim Louis Farrakhan, or with his own children? Each case involves cross-cutting currents of...
