God's Arbiters: Americans and the Philippines, 1898-1902
ISBN: 9780199307203 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When the U.S. liberated the Philippines from Spanish rule in 1898, the exploit was hailed at home as a great moral victory, an instance of Uncle Sam freeing an oppressed country from colonial tyranny. The next move, however, was hotly contested: should the U.S. annex the archipelago? The disputants did agree on one point: that the United States was divinely appointed to bring democracy--and with it, white Protestant culture--to the rest of the world.

Gender and Transitional Justice: The Women of East Timor
ISBN: 9780415561181 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Gender and Transitional Justice provides the first comprehensive feminist analysis of the role of international law in formal transitional justice mechanisms. Using East Timor as a case study, it offers reflections on transitional justice administered by a UN transitional administration. Often presented as a UN success story, the author demonstrates that, in spite of women and children's rights programmes of the UN and other donors, justice for women has deteriorated in post-conflict Timor, and violence has remained a constant in their lives. This book provides a gendered... Gender and Transitional Justice provides the first comprehensive feminist analysis of the role of international law in formal transitional... |

Irish Drama and the Other Revolutions: Playwrights, Sexual Politics and the International Left, 1892-1964
ISBN: 9781474424462 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first modern Irish playwrights emerged in London in the 1890s, at the intersection of a rising international socialist movement and a new campaign for gender equality and sexual freedom. Irish Drama and the Other Revolutions shows how Irish playwrights mediated between the sexual and the socialist revolutions, and traces their impact on left theatre in Europe and America from the 1890s to the 1960s. Drawing on original archival research, the study reconstructs the engagement of Yeats, Shaw, Wilde, Synge, O'Casey, and Beckett with socialists and sexual radicals like Percy Bysshe...
