Автор: Danielle Celermajer, Richard K. Sherwin Название: A Cultural History of Law in the Modern Age ISBN: 1350368709 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350368705 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 27450.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The period since the First World War has been a century distinguished by the loss of any unitary foundation for truth, ethics, and the legitimate authority of law. With the emergence of radical pluralism, law has become the site of extraordinary creativity and, on occasion, a source of rights for those historically excluded from its protection. A Cultural History of Law in the Modern Age tells stories of human struggles in the face of state authority - including Aboriginal land claims, popular resistance to corporate power, and the inter-generational ramifications of genocidal state violence.
The essays address how, and with what effects, different expressive modes (ceremonial dance, live street theater, the acoustics of radio, the affective range of film, to name a few) help to construct, memorialize, and disseminate political and legal meaning. Drawing upon a wealth of visual, textual and sound sources, A Cultural History of Law in the Modern Age presents essays that examine key cultural case studies of the period on the themes of justice, constitution, codes, agreements, arguments, property and possession, wrongs, and the legal profession.

Автор: Sherwin, Martin J. Название: Gambling With Armageddon ISBN: 0307266885 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780307266880 Издательство: Random House (USA) Рейтинг: Цена: 21460.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer comes the first effort to set the Cuban Missile Crisis, with its potential for nuclear holocaust, in a wider historical narrative of the Cold War--how such a crisis arose, and why at the very last possible moment it didn't happen. In this groundbreaking look at the Cuban Missile Crisis, Martin Sherwin not only gives us a riveting sometimes hour-by-hour explanation of the crisis itself, but also explores the origins, scope, and consequences of the evolving place of nuclear weapons in the post WWII world. Mining new sources and materials, and going far beyond the scope of earlier works on this critical face-off between the United States and the Soviet Union--triggered when Khrushchev began installing missiles in Cuba at Castro's behest--Sherwin shows how this volatile event was an integral part of the wider Cold War and was a consequence of nuclear arms. Gambling with Armageddon looks in particular at the original debate in the Truman Administration about using the Atomic Bomb; the way in which President Eisenhower relied on the threat of massive retaliation to project U.S. power in the early Cold War era; and how President Kennedy, though unprepared to deal with the Bay of Pigs debacle, came of age during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Here too is a clarifying picture of what was going on in Khrushchev's Soviet Union. Martin Sherwin has spent his career in the study of nuclear weapons and how they have shaped our world--Gambling with Armegeddon is an outstanding capstone to his work thus far.

Описание: From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer comes the first effort to set the Cuban Missile Crisis, with its potential for nuclear holocaust, in a wider historical narrative of the Cold War--how such a crisis arose and why, at the very last possible moment, it never happened. In this groundbreaking look at the Cuban Missile Crisis, Martin Sherwin not only gives us a riveting, sometimes hour-by-hour explanation of the crisis itself; he also explores the origins, scope, and consequences of nuclear weapons' evolving global importance following World War II. By mining new sources and far surpassing the breadth of his earlier works, Sherwin shows how the volatile Cuban Missile Crisis was both integral to the wider Cold War and a consequence of nuclear arms. Gambling with Armageddon looks in particular at the Truman Administration's original debate regarding the atomic bomb; how President Eisenhower relied on the threat of massive retaliation to project US power in the early Cold War era; and how President Kennedy, though unprepared for the Bay of Pigs debacle, came of age during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Here, too, is a clarifying picture of Khrushchev's Soviet Union and how Khrushchev's installment of missiles in Cuba, at Castro's behest, triggered what would become a critical face-off between the USSR and the United States. Martin Sherwin has spent his career studying nuclear weapons and how they have shaped our world. Gambling with Armegeddon is an outstanding capstone to his work thus far.
