Coming Revolutions in Black Africa
ISBN: 9780615843971 / Angielski / Miękka / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book holds that the best solution to the perennial conflicts in sub-Saharan African countries is a rational Federalism through a sensible Federal Autonomy structure. The foundation of these conflicts lies in arbitrary colonial boundaries and arbitrary agglomerations of peoples, conflicts that have been aggravated in each country by the poor management of diversity since independence, conflicts that are contributing in great measure to poor pace of development in Black Africa, to poverty, and to massive human suffering. This advocacy of today differs in degrees from the early Pan-African...

Decentralisation and Community Participation: Local Development and Municipal Politics in Cameroon
ISBN: 9789956763917 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores how policies of decentralisation and community participation adopted in Cameroon in 1996 have played out on the ground since 2004. These reforms were carried out amid economic crisis, structural adjustment and political upheaval. At the time, popular sentiment was that change on the economic and political fronts was imperative. However, the ruling elite, some of whom had been shuttling around the state apparatus since independence, feared that succumbing to popular demands for change was tantamount to political suicide, as was the case elsewhere on the continent. These... This book explores how policies of decentralisation and community participation adopted in Cameroon in 1996 have played out on the ground since 200... |

The Postcolonial Contemporary: Political Imaginaries for the Global Present
ISBN: 9780823280063 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume invokes the "postcolonial contemporary" in order to recognize and reflect upon the emphatically postcolonial character of the contemporary conjuncture, as well as to inquire into whether postcolonial criticism can adequately grasp it. Neither simply for nor against postcolonialism, the volume seeks to cut across this false alternative, and to think with postcolonial theory about political contemporaneity. Many of the most influential frameworks of postcolonial theory were developed during the 1970s and 1990s, during what we may now recognize as the twilight of the...

ISBN: 9781973940937 / Angielski / Miękka / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. These essays are not a condemnation of the ideal of statehood. It is a direct criticism of the politicians who with deceit take advantage of the genuine aspirations of the people. It is a critique of those politicians who promoted and have obtained gain from the economic debacle; and who now want to distract us, with flags and status celebrations, from the all-important hunt for the missing $ 72 billion Puerto Rico now owes.
