Автор: David Veltman, Hans Renders Название: Different Lives: Global Perspectives on Biography in Public Cultures and Societies ISBN: 9004428127 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004428126 Издательство: Brill Рейтинг: Цена: 175330.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Internationally acclaimed biographies are almost always written by British or American biographers. But what is the state of the art of biography in other parts of the world? Introduced by Richard Holmes, the volume Different Lives offers a global perspective: seventeen scholars vividly describe the biographical tradition in their countries of interest. They show how biography functions as a public genre, featuring specific societal issues and opinion-making. Indeed, the volume aims to answer the question: how can biography contribute to a better understanding of differences between societies and cultures? Special attention is given to the US, China and the Netherlands. Other contributions are on Australia, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Iceland, Iran, Italy, New Zealand, Spain, and South Africa.

Автор: Johannes Renders Название: Freedom through Submission: Muslim-talk in Contemporary Denmark ISBN: 9004448942 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004448940 Издательство: Brill Рейтинг: Цена: 124850.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: In Freedom through Submission Johannes Renders explores Danish-Muslim statements on human freedom. Within a context where public talk of Islam is largely mediated by an incessant succession of controversies, the notion of freedom is weaponized both by and against a growing Muslim community. Danish Muslims take issue with liberal associations of the notion with autonomy and choice, and seek to reconfigure the public debate that pits freedom against Islam. This book brings out a sophisticated and reflective Muslim discourse, in which freedom is something individuals must simultaneously exercise, surrender, and achieve through a cultivated relinquishing of the will to Allah.

Описание: This book is a compilation of government reports on weapons of mass destruction.

Chapter 2 discusses the continuation of the national emergency with respect to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. Chapter 3 reports on the Department of Homeland Securitys organisation to counter weapons of mass destruction. The danger North Korea poses to the world is more than just its rogue nuclear program and ballistic missile brinksmanship as discussed in chapter 4. Chapter 5 examines (1) DHS programs and activities to prevent and protect against domestic chemical attacks and (2) the extent to which DHS has integrated and coordinated all of its chemical defense programs and activities. Chapter 6 examines (1) information the federal government has about the procurement, distribution, use, and disposition of Agent Orange; (2) DOD and VA efforts to make information about where Agent Orange and its components were tested and stored available; and (3) challenges associated with Agent Orange testing.
Автор: Marleen Renders Название: Consider Somaliland: State-Building with Traditional Leaders and Institutions ISBN: 9004218483 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004218482 Издательство: Brill Цена: 99620.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Can 'traditional' leaders and institutions help to build more legitimate, accountable and effective governments in polities or 'states' under (re)construction? This book investigates the case of "Somaliland", the 20-year old non-recognized state which emerged from Somalia's conflict and state collapse. A careful analysis of Somaliland's political history, it outlines the complex and evolving institutional and power dynamics involving clan elders, militia leaders, guerrilla movements, as well as politicians and civil servants in its emerging state structures. While showing the great potential of endogenous processes, it clearly demonstrates the complexity and the politics of those processes and the necessity to think beyond one-size-fits-all state-building formulas.
