Описание:

My Sisters Eyes is a charming work written with precision and passion. From their prosperous life in Poland through the Nazi onslaught and their perilous flight to freedom... Dr. Michael Berenbaum, Director of the Sigi Ziering Institute and co-founder of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Washington, D.C.:

My Sisters Eyes is a vigilant call to others not to forget...It is also a salute to Aristides de Sousa Mendes... Dr. Mordecai Paldiel, the leading world authority on the Righteous Diplomats, former Director of the Righteous Among the Nations Department at Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center in Jerusalem, Israel.

This exquisitely crafted book brings to life the story of one young Jewish couples upended life. The author, Joan Arnay Halperin, skillfully depicts her parents prosperous pre-war life in Poland and Belgium, including their fortuitous blind date, whirlwind romance, orthodox marriage, and the birth of their first child.

The reader then experiences the Krakowiak familys perilous escape from the Nazi invasion of western Europe beginning with the blitzkrieg of Belgium on May 10, 1940 to their months in limbo in Portugal, where they anxiously await visas for presumed safety in the New World.

Over the course of their circuitous route which lasts one thousand two hundred and forty-one days, they confront unspeakable tragedy and still continue on with an indomitable spirit that imbues the reader with admiration and hope for humankind despite the evil of some.

In addition to this personalized vantage point that so gracefully humanizes the horrific effects of World War II, the book also informs the reader of the moral courage and heroism of Aristides de Sousa Mendes, the Portuguese Consul General in Bordeaux, France in 1940, who issued thousands of visas to desperate refugees for safety in Portugal.

Описание:

The first edition of Bureaucratic Politics and Foreign Policy is one of the most successful Brookings titles of all time. This thoroughly revised version updates that classic analysis of the role played by the federal bureaucracy--civilian career officials, political appointees, and military officers--and Congress in formulating U.S. national security policy, illustrating how policy decisions are actually made. Government agencies, departments, and individuals all have certain interests to preserve and promote. Those priorities, and the conflicts they sometimes spark, heavily influence the formulation and implementation of foreign policy. A decision that looks like an orchestrated attempt to influence another country may in fact represent a shaky compromise between rival elements within the U.S. government. The authors provide numerous examples of bureaucratic maneuvering and reveal how they have influenced our international relations. The revised edition includes new examples of bureaucratic politics from the past three decades, from Jimmy Carter's view of the State Department to conflicts between George W. Bush and the bureaucracy regarding Iraq. The second edition also includes a new analysis of Congress's role in the politics of foreign policymaking.

Описание:

The past fifty years are conventionally understood to have witnessed an uninterrupted expansion of sexual rights and liberties in the United States. This state-of-the-art collection tells a different story: while progress has been made in marriage equality, reproductive rights, access to birth control, and other areas, government and civil society are waging a war on stigmatized sex by means of law, surveillance, and social control. The contributors document the history and operation of sex offender registries and the criminalization of HIV, as well as highly punitive measures against sex work that do more to harm women than to combat human trafficking. They reveal that sex crimes are punished more harshly than other crimes, while new legal and administrative regulations drastically restrict who is permitted to have sex. By examining how the ever-intensifying war on sex affects both privileged and marginalized communities, the essays collected here show why sexual liberation is indispensable to social justice and human rights.

Описание:

In Marx's familiar dictum, the more-developed country shows the less developed an image of its own future. Turning this idea upside down, In the Mirror of the Third World looks to the contemporary Third World for a reflection of European history. The resulting view challenges standard accounts of European social, economic, and political development.

Sandra Halperin's analysis of the European experience begins where studies of Third World development often start: considering the legacies of colonial domination. Europe also had a colonial past, she reminds us, and the states of Europe, like those of today's Third World, were the product of colonialism and imperialism. From this starting point, Halperin traces features characteristic of Third World development through the history of European capitalism: enclave economies oriented to foreign markets; weak middle classes; alliances among the state, traditional landowning elites, and new industrial classes; unstable and partial democracy; sharp inequalities; and increasing poverty—all as much a part of European society on the eve of World War I as they are of developing countries today. Halperin also emphasizes the emergence of a militant, literal religion in Europe and its critical role in the class struggles of the nineteenth century.
