Men and Violence: Gender, Honor, and Rituals in Modern Europe and America
ISBN: 9780814207536 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) There is growing interest in the history of masculinity and male culture, including violence, as an integral part of a proper understanding of gender. In almost every historical setting, masculinity and violence are closely linked; certainly, violent crime has been overwhelmingly a male enterprise. But violence is not always criminal: in many cultural contexts violence is linked instead to honor and encoded in rituals. We possess only an imperfect understanding of the ways in which aggressive behavior, or the abstention from aggressive behavior, contributes to the construction of masculinity...

Strangers, Spirits, and Land Reforms: Conflicts about Land in Dande, Northern Zimbabwe
ISBN: 9789004139572 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book describes efforts by the Zimbabwean government to enforce land reforms on African farmers in northern Zimbabwe. These efforts compounded rather than alleviated the problem of land scarcity for black small-scale farmers, a problem government now allegedly seeks to redress through invasions of white-owned farms. The book describes the similarities between the post-Independence land reforms and those attempted by the Rhodesian regime. The land reforms in Dande rendered a considerable number of farmers officially landless. The book describes the resulting internal conflicts over land...

Nature Conservation in Southern Africa: Morality and Marginality: Towards Sentient Conservation?
ISBN: 9789004381001 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Nature conservation in southern Africa has always been characterised by an interplay between Capital, specific understandings of Morality, and forms of Militarism, that are all dependent upon the shared subservience and marginalization of animals and certain groups of people in society. Although the subjectivity of people has been rendered visible in earlier publications on histories of conservation in southern Africa, the subjectivity of animals is hardly ever seriously considered or explicitly dealt with. In this edited volume the subjectivity and sentience of animals is explicitly...

Social Control in Europe: Volume 1, 1500-1800
ISBN: 9780814209684 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This two-volume collection of essays provides a comprehensive examination of the idea of social control in the history of Europe. The uniqueness of these volumes lies in two main areas. First, the contributors compare methods of social control on many levels, from police to shaming, church to guilds. Second, they look at these formal and informal institutions as two-way processes. Unlike many studies of social control in the past, the scholars here examine how individuals and groups that are being controlled necessarily participate in and shape the manner in which they are regulated. Hardly...
