ISBN: 9780521558310 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Epidemic diseases have always been a test of the ability of human societies to withstand sudden shocks. How are such large mortalities and the illness of large proportions of the population to be explained and dealt with? How have the sources of disease been identified and controls imposed? The chapters in this book, by acknowledged experts in the history of their periods, look at the ways in which the great epidemic diseases of the past--from classical Athens to the present day--have shaped not only our views of medicine and disease, but the ways in which people have defined the "health" of...

The Historical Dimensions of Democracy and Human Rights in Zimbabwe
ISBN: 9781779200013 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Zimbabwean human rights historiography often assumes that pre- colonial African politics were democratic; whilst colonialism implies a total denial of human rights. It further assumes that Zimbabwean nationalism was in essence a human rights movement; and that the liberation struggle, which led to the overthrow of colonial oppression, reinstated both human rights and democracy. This, the second volume on the historical dimensions of human rights in Africa, reconsiders questions of nationalism, democracy and human rights. It asks why the first democratic revolution was frustrated in Africa,...
