A guidebook to the wild world of communist minimalism in Tito's Yugoslavia
Spomenik--the Serbo-Croat/Slovenian word for monument--refers to the memorials built in Tito's Republic of Yugoslavia from the 1960s to the 1980s, marking the horror of the occupation and the defeat of Axis forces during World War II. Hundreds were built across the country, from coastal resorts to remote mountains. Through these imaginative forms of concrete and steel, a classless, forward-looking socialist society, free of ethnic tensions, was envisaged. Instead of looking to the ideologically aligned Soviet Union for artistic inspiration, Tito turned to the West and works of abstract expressionism and minimalism. This allowed Yugoslavia to develop its own distinct identity through the monuments, turning them into political tools, articulating Tito's personal vision of a new tomorrow.
Today, following the breakup of the country and the subsequent Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s, some have been destroyed or abandoned. Many have suffered the consequences of ethnic tensions: once viewed as symbols of hope, they are now the focus of resentment and anger.
This book brings together the largest collection of spomeniks published to date. Each has been extensively photographed and researched by the author, making this book the most comprehensive survey of this obscure and fascinating architectural phenomenon. The inside of the book's dust jacket opens out as a map, giving the exact geographic coordinates for each monument.

This pioneering text contributes to the theory and practice of teaching and learning. The purpose is to unlock how key stakeholders of the spectrum of pre-universities in Singapore make sense of "knowledge" and "knowledge work", and endeavour to determine how their understanding of "knowledge" shapes their understanding of "knowledge work" and the conditions that affect their knowledge work. This monograph contributes in a most productive fashion to the necessary educational debates on teaching and learning, which quickly segue into pragmatic political debates about what sort of society and global community we desire.
Using three widely diverse pre-university settings in Singapore as case studies, this book seeks to fill the existing gap by elucidating educators' and students' identification of knowledge, knowledge work and the problems and challenges confronting knowledge work.

Описание: "Ten piedad de m , Se or, cubano soy." En 1962, Carlos Eire fue uno de los 14.841 ni os que fueron transportados fuera de Cuba en el puente a?reo conocido como la Operaci n Pedro Pan--exiliado de su familia, de su patria y de su propia ni ez por la Revoluci n. Los recuerdos de su vida en La Habana cobran vida en estas memorias evocativas e inolvidables. Nieve en La Habana es a su vez un exorcismo y una oda a un mundo perdido. La Cuba de la ni ez de Carlos, con sus lagartijas y su mar azul turquesa ba ado por un sol esplendoroso, se convierte en una isla maldita con la llegada al poder de un guerrillero llamado Fidel Castro. De pronto la m sica callejera se transforma en tiroteos, las pascuas navide as quedan prohibidas, la disidencia conlleva encarcelamiento y casi todos los amigos de Carlos deben irse de Cuba rumbo a un lugar tan lejano e inconcebible como los Estados Unidos. Carlos tambi n terminar en ese mismo exilio, y cumplir el deseo de su madre de convertirse en un hombre americano moderno --aun si su alma permanece en el pa s que lo vio nacer. Narrado con la urgencia de una confesi n, Nieve en La Habana es un elogio a una patria arruinada y un amoroso testimonio del esp ritu colectivo de todos los cubanos, dondequiera que est n.
