Where Shrimp Eat Better Than People: Globalized Fisheries, Nutritional Unequal Exchange and Asian Hunger
ISBN: 9789004522640 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. East, South and Southeast Asia are home to two-thirds of the world’s hungry people, but they produce more than three-quarters of the world’s fish and nearly half of other foods. Through integration into the world food system, these Asian fisheries export their most nutritious foods and import less healthy substitutes. Worldwide, their exports sell cheap because women, the hungriest Asians, provide unpaid subsidies to production processes. In the 21st century, Asian peasants produce more than 60 percent of the regional food supply, but their survival is threatened by hunger, public...

Women, Work, and Family in the Antebellum Mountain South
ISBN: 9780521886192 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first study of 19th-century Appalachian women. Wilma A. Dunaway moves beyond the black-white dichotomy and the preoccupation with affluent females that handicap antebellum women s histories. By comparing white, American Indian, free black, and enslaved females, she argues that the nature of a woman s work was determined by her race, ethnicity, and/or class positions. Concomitantly, the degree to which laws shielded her family from disruption depended upon her race, her class, and the degree to which she adhered to patriarchal conventions about work and cross-racial liaisons."

First American Frontier
ISBN: 9780807845400 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 468 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In The First American Frontier, Wilma Dunaway challenges many assumptions about the development of preindustrial Southern Appalachia's society and economy. Drawing on data from 215 counties in nine states from 1700 to 1860, she argues that capitalist exchange and production came to the region much earlier than has been previously thought. Her innovative book is the first regional history of antebellum Southern Appalachia and the first study to apply world-systems theory to the development of the American frontier. Dunaway demonstrates that Europeans established significant trade...

Slavery in the American Mountain South
ISBN: 9780521812757 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Wilma Dunaway breaks new ground by focusing on slave experiences on small plantations in the Upper South. She argues that the region was not buffered from the political, economic, and social impacts of enslavement simply because it was characterized by low black population density and small slaveholdings. Dunaway pinpoints several indicators that distinguished Mountain South enslavement from the Lower South, by drawing on a massive statistical data base derived from antebellum census manuscripts and county tax records of 215 counties in nine states, slaveholder manuscripts, and regional slave...

The African-American Family in Slavery and Emancipation
ISBN: 9780521012164 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Wilma Dunaway contends that studies of the U.S. slave family are flawed by the neglect of small plantations and export zones and the exaggeration of slave agency. Using data on population trends and slave narratives, Dunaway identifies several profit-maximizing strategies that owners implemented to disrupt and endanger African-American families. These effective strategies include forced labor migrations, structural interference in marriages and childcare, sexual exploitation of women, shortfalls in provision of basic survival needs, and ecological risks. This book is unique in its examination...
