Описание: The progressive and inspirational ideas contained in this ebullient book pave the way forward for a fundamental rethink and upgrade in the democratic, governance and organisational mindsets of a young and beautiful nation, whose rigour, talent and feasibility remain unharnessed. Undaunted in spirit by past colonial and political misgivings, we the people believe the time is ripe for a new and progressive nation exultant in economic hope. If so inclined, you can call it a revolution or even a new national consciousness, but the fact remains that the results must embrace and address major changes in economy, industry, socio-political institutions and the culture of information and debate. "Sufficiently well-equipped to always rise above the din and make his points from global, regional or national perspectives, this author doesn't genuflect to the political whims and fancies of the day's gubernatorial make-up. His arguments and offerings for thought are usually based on fact, not fiction. Widely read and well taught, his words of wisdom normally appeal for sober consideration of the issues he comments on." Earl Bousquet, Veteran Journalist (Saint Lucia Gold Medal of Honour)

Описание: This book explores the origins of the academic culture wars of the late 20th century and examines their lasting influence on the humanities and progressive politics. It puts us in a position to ask this question: what to make now of those furious debates over postmodernism, multiculturalism, relativism, critical theory, deconstruction, post-structuralism, and all the rest? In an effort to arrive at a fair judgment on that question, the book reaches for an understanding of postmodern theorists by way of two genres they despised and hopes, for that very reason, to do them justice. It tells a story, and in the telling, advances two basic claims: first, that the phenomenological/hermeneutical tradition is the most suitable source of theory for a humanism that aspires to be universal; and, second, that the ethical and political aspect of the human condition is authentically accessible only through narrative. In conclusion, it argues that the postmodern moment was a necessary one, or will have been if we rise to the occasion and seize the opportunity it offers: a truly universal humanism might yet be realized even in—or perhaps especially in—this atavistic hour of parochial populism.

During the 1910s and 1920s, the Philadelphia waterfront was home to the most durable interracial, multiethnic union seen in the United States prior to the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) era. For much of its time, Local 8's majority was African American and included immigrants from Eastern Europe as well as many Irish Americans. In this important study, Peter Cole examines how Local 8, affiliated with the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), accomplished what no other did at the time. He also shows how race was central not only to the rise but also to the decline of Local 8, as increasing racial tensions were manipulated by employers and federal agents bent on the union's destruction.

Автор: Jens Sp?th Название: Does Generation Matter? Progressive Democratic Cultures in Western Europe, 1945–1960 ISBN: 3030084523 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783030084523 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 83850.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: “Generation” has become a central concept of cultural, historical and social studies. This book analyses how this concept is currently used and how it relates to memory and constructions of historical meaning from educational, historical, legal and political perspectives. Attempts to compare different national generations or to elaborate boundary-crossing, transnational generations still constitute an exception. In trying to fill this gap, this collection of essays concentrates on one crucial moment of “the age of extremes” and on one specific generation: the year 1945 and its progressive politicians and intellectuals. Focusing on Italy, West Germany and France, it suggests that the concept of generation should be regarded as an open question in space and time. Therefore, this volume asks what role generation played in the intellectual and political debates of 1945: if it facilitated change, if it served as source of solidarity and cohesion and how post-war societies organized their time.
Автор: Zack Naomi Название: Progressive Anonymity: From Identity Politics to Evidence-Based Government ISBN: 1538136031 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781538136034 Издательство: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers Рейтинг: Цена: 139390.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Continuing her visionary work in social-political philosophy, Zack critiques identity politics as perpetuating damaging essentialist perspectives and policies. The antidote to identity group egoism is anonymity based on relevant shared interests and a meritocracy led by experts chosen without preference for group affiliation or political charisma.
Through the voices of women activists in the welfare rights movement across the United States, The Price of Progressive Politics exposes the contemporary reality of welfare rights politics, revealing how the language of colorblind racism undermines this multiracial movement. Through in-depth interviews with activists in eight organizations across the United States, Rose Ernst presents an intersectional analysis of how these activists understand the complexities of race, class and gender and how such understandings have affected their approach to their grassroots work. Engaging and accessible, The Price of Progressive Politics offers a refreshing examination of how those working for change grapple with shifting racial dynamics in the United States, arguing that organizations that fail to develop a consciousness that reflects the reality of multiple marginalized identities ultimately reproduce the societal dynamics they seek to change.
