Governor of the Cordillera: John C. Early Among the Philippine Highlanders
ISBN: 9781501769962 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

During the first fifteen years of colonial rule (1898–1913), a small group of Americans controlled the headhunting tribes who were wards of the nascent colonial government. These officials ignored laws, carved out fiefdoms, and brutalized (or killed) those who challenged their rule. John Early was cut from a different cloth. Battling colleagues and supervisors over their...

Urban Revolutions: Notes Towards a Systematic Investigation
ISBN: 9781642599954 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What do struggles over pipelines in Canada, housing estates in France, and shantytowns in Martinique have in common? In Urban Revolutions, Stefan Kipfer shows how these struggles force us to understand the (neo-)colonial aspects of capitalist urbanization in a comparatively and historically nuanced fashion. In so doing, he demonstrates that urban research can offer a rich, if uneven, terrain upon which to develop the relationship between Marxist and anti-colonial intellectual traditions. After a detailed dialogue between Henri Lefebvre and Frantz Fanon, Kipfer engages creole literature in the...

My Land My Life: Dispossession at the Frontier of Desire
ISBN: 9780824894450 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In this book, Siobhan McDonnell offers new insights into the drivers of capitalist...

Gender, Patriliny, and the Chinese in Colonial Indonesia
ISBN: 9781501772504 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
