ISBN: 9781447364276 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

As the de-colonisation of curricula...

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. In Strangers in the Family, Guo-Quan Seng provides a gendered history of settler Chinese community formation in Indonesia during the Dutch colonial period (1816–1942).

Departing from male-centered narratives of Ooverseas Chinese communities, Strangers in the Family tells the history of community- formation from the perspective of women who were subordinate to, and alienated from, full Chinese selfhood.
