Women, War, and the Making of Bangladesh: Remembering 1971
ISBN: 9780822350385 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Fought between India and what was then East and West Pakistan, the war of 1971 led to the creation of Bangladesh, where it is remembered as the War of Liberation. For India, the war represents a triumphant settling of scores with Pakistan. If the war is acknowledged in Pakistan, it is cast as an act of betrayal by the Bengalis. None of these nationalist histories convey the human cost of the war. Pakistani and Indian soldiers and Bengali militiamen raped and tortured women on a mass scale. In Women, War, and the Making of Bangladesh, survivors tell their stories, revealing the power of...

Fragmented Memories: Struggling to be Tai-Ahom in India
ISBN: 9780822333739 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Fragmented Memories" is a beautifully rendered exploration of how, during the 1990s, socially and economically marginalized people in the northeastern Indian state of Assam sought to produce a past on which to base a distinctive contemporary identity recognized within late-twentieth-century India. Yasmin Saikia describes how groups of Assamese identified themselves as Tai-Ahom--a people with a glorious past stretching back to the invasion of what is now Assam by Ahom warriors in the thirteenth century. In her account of the 1990s Tai-Ahom identity movement, Saikia considers the problem of...

Women and Peace in the Islamic World: Gender, Agency and Influence
ISBN: 9781784530174 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. How realistic is the prospect of peace in the Middle East? This question is the predominant focus for global analysis in the area, but its debate frequently ignores the cultural and social complexity of the Muslim world, reducing the region to a system of states and major figures. This book addresses such a failing by exploring how the everyday interactions of women, in accordance with Islamic personal ethics, can offer the world a new interpretation of peace. Drawing upon original research from different parts of the Middle East, North Africa and Asia, including Iran, Afghanistan, Egypt and...

On Othering: Processes and Politics of Unpeace
ISBN: 9781771993869 / Angielski / Miękka / 2024 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In every sphere of life, division and intolerance has polarized communities and entire nations. The learned construction of the Other—an evil “enemy” against whom both physical and discursive violence is deemed acceptable—has fractured humanity, creating divisions that seemingly defy reconciliation. How do we restore the bonds of connection among human beings? How do we shift from polarization to peace? On Othering: Processes and Politics of Unpeace examines the process of othering from an international perspective and considers how it undermines peacemaking and is perpetuated by...

The Cambridge Companion to Sayyid Ahmad Khan

This volume examines Sayyid Ahmad Khan's life, his contribution, and legacy in the context of current times.
