Описание:
This book provides an innovative look at the reception of Frantz Fanon's texts, investigating how, when, where and why these--especially his seminal Les Damnes de la Terre (1961) --were first translated and read. Building on renewed interest in the author's works in both postcolonial studies and revolutionary movements in recent years, as well as travelling theory, micro-history and histoire croisee interests in Translation Studies, the volume tells the stories of translations of Fanon's texts into twelve different languages - Arabic, Danish, English, German, Italian, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Swahili and Swedish - bringing both a historical and multilingual perspective to the ways in which Fanon is cited today. With contributions from an international, interdisciplinary group of scholars, the stories told combine themes of movement and place, personal networks and agency, politics and activism, archival research and textual analysis, creating a book that is a fresh and comprehensive volume on the translated works of Frantz Fanon and essential reading for scholars in translation studies, postcolonial studies, cultural studies, critical race studies, and African and African diaspora literature.

Описание: This book turns conventional global-historical analysis on its head, demonstrating, first, that local events cannot be derived - logically or historically - from large-scale, global-historical structures and processes and, second, that it is these structures and processes that, in fact, emerge from our analysis of local events.
Описание: This original ethnographic study investigates petty corruption in Ukrainian and Belarusian bureaucracies and challenges the dominant belief that political transition causes ubiquitous corruption.

Описание: Recognizing the lack of discussion of income inequality in most social work textbooks, Reducing Inequality: Addressing the Wicked Problems across Professions and Disciplines provides an overview of the potential impact of income inequality on the United States. It examines why the United States is the most unequal industrialized nation, and shares diverse curriculum and research on the topic.Reducing Inequality places inequality in an international context to demonstrate the very high level of inequality in the United States, and identifies specific problems linked to inequality. It provides historical context to explain the shift between relative equality and relative inequality from the colonial period to the present, and discusses specific ways inequality can be reduced. It identifies strategies for uplifting those impacted by income inequality, and teaches practical skills such as developing policy briefs.The book can easily be supplemented with readings that customize it to diverse courses. The content and approach make it appropriate for courses in social work, sociology, political science, and economics and sociology. The emphasis on practical skills also makes it a useful addition to classes in urban planning, public policy, and public health.

Описание:
This edited collection analyses, from multiple disciplinary perspectives, the issue of corruption in commercial enterprise across different sectors and jurisdictions. Corruption is commonly recognised as a major 'social bad', and is seriously harmful to society, in terms of the functioning and legitimacy of political-economic systems, and the day-to-day lives of individuals.
There is nothing novel about bribes in brown envelopes and dubious backroom deals, ostensibly to grease the wheels of business. Corrupt practices like these go to the very heart of illicit transacting in both legal markets - such as kickbacks to facilitate contracts in international commerce - and illegal markets - such as payoffs to public officials to turn a blind eye to cross-border smuggling. Aside from the apparent pervasiveness and longevity of corruption in commercial enterprise, there is now renewed policy and operational attention on the phenomenon, prompting and meriting deeper analysis.
Corruption in commercial enterprise, encompassing behaviours often associated with corporate and white-collar crime, and corruption in criminal commercial enterprise, where we see corruption central to organised crime activities, are major public policy issues. This collection gives us insight into their nature, organisation and governance, and how to respond most appropriately and effectively.
