The Nature of Revolution: Art and Politics Under the Khmer Rouge
ISBN: 9780820364919 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Nature of Revolution provides the first account of art and politics under the brutal Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia. James A. Tyner repositions Khmer Rouge artworks within their proper political and economic context: the materialization of a political organization in an era of anticolonial and decolonization movements. Consequently, both the organization’s policies and practices—including the production of poetry, music, and photography—were incontrovertibly shaped by and created to further the Khmer Rouge’s agenda.Theoretically informed and empirically grounded, Tyner’s work...

Violence in Capitalism: Devaluing Life in an Age of Responsibility
ISBN: 9780803253384 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What, James Tyner asks, separates the murder of a runaway youth from the death of a father denied a bone-marrow transplant because of budget cuts? Moving beyond our culture s reductive emphasis on whether a given act of violence is intentional and may therefore count as deliberate murder Tyner interrogates the broader forces that produce violence. His uniquely geographic perspective considers where violence takes place (the workplace, the home, the prison, etc.) and how violence moves across space. Approaching violence as one of several methods of constituting space, Tyner examines...

War, Violence, and Population: Making the Body Count
ISBN: 9781606230374 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Grounded in theory and research, this book offers a spatial perspective on how and why populations are regulated and disciplined by mass violence--and why these questions matter for scholars concerned about social justice. James Tyner focuses on how states and other actors use acts of brutality to manage, administer, and control space for political and economic purposes. He shows how demographic analyses of fertility, mortality, and migration cannot be complete without taking war and genocide into account. Stark, in-depth case studies provide a powerful and provocative basis for...

Between 1975 and 1979 the Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia enacted a program of organized mass violence that resulted in the deaths of approximately one quarter of the country's population. Over two million people died from torture, execution, disease and famine. From the commodification of the 'killing fields' of Choeung Ek to the hundreds of unmarked mass graves scattered across the country, violence continues to shape the Cambodian landscape. Landscape, Memory, and Post-Violence in Cambodia explores the on-going memorialization of violence. As part of a broader engagement with war, violence...

ISBN: 9780739112977 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Oriental Bodies charts the discursive transformations of U.S. immigration policy between 1875 and 1942. Author James Tyner concentrates on the confluence of eugenics, geopolitics, and Orientalism as these intersect in the debates surrounding the exclusion of immigrants from China, Japan, and the Philippines. This unique work argues that United States immigration policy was founded on a particular discourse of eugenics and geopolitics and that this concentration was informed by a greater Orientalist discourse. Drawing from American foreign policy, identity politics, post-structuralism,...

America's Strategy in Southeast Asia: From Cold War to Terror War
ISBN: 9780742553583 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Geography encompasses everything from the local--where human beings live, work, and travel--to metageographies like nations and regions. James A. Tyner's inventive and multidisciplinary ideas on geography similarly range from the personal--his father's experience in the military during the Vietnam War--to a broad discussion of how the United States has come to exercise power through the production of geographic knowledge, in this case in Southeast Asia. Since the end of the Second World War, Southeast Asia has served as a surrogate space to further American imperial interests, which are...

ISBN: 9780820363738 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines three consecutive famines in Cambodia during the 1970s, exploring both continuities and discontinuities of all three. Cambodia experienced these consecutive famines against the backdrop of four distinct governments: the Kingdom of Cambodia (1953–1970), the U.S.-supported Khmer Republic (1970–1975), the communist Democratic Kampuchea (1975–1979), and the Vietnamese-controlled People’s Republic of Kampuchea (1979–1989). Famine in Cambodia documents how state-induced famine constituted a form of sovereign violence and operated against the backdrop of sweeping...

Enter the Alternative School is an in-depth examination of public school alternatives to traditional educational models.
