Описание: Tells the story of Jamaican “scammers” who use crime to gain autonomy, opportunity, and repair There is romance in stealing from the rich to give to the poor, but how does that change when those perceived rich are elderly white North Americans and the poor are young Black Jamaicans? In this innovative ethnography, Jovan Scott Lewis tells the story of Omar, Junior, and Dwayne. Young and poor, they strive to make a living in Montego Bay, where call centers and tourism are the two main industries in the struggling economy. Their experience of grinding poverty and drastically limited opportunity leads them to conclude that scamming is the best means of gaining wealth and advancement. Otherwise, they are doomed to live in “sufferation”-an inescapable poverty that breeds misery, frustration, and vexation. In the Jamaican lottery scam run by these men, targets are told they have qualified for a large loan or award if they pay taxes or transfer fees. When the fees are paid, the award never arrives, netting the scammers tens of thousands of U.S. dollars. Through interviews, historical sources, song lyrics, and court testimonies, Lewis examines how these scammers justify their deceit, discovering an ethical narrative that reformulates ideas of crime and transgression and their relationship to race, justice, and debt. Scammer’s Yard describes how these young men, seeking to overcome inequality and achieve autonomy, come to view crime as a form of liberation. Their logic raises unsettling questions about a world economy that relegates postcolonial populations to deprivation even while expecting them to follow the rules of capitalism that exacerbate their dispossession. In this groundbreaking account, Lewis asks whether true reparation for the legacy of colonialism is to be found only through radical-even criminal-means.

Описание: Focusing on visual representations of one of the most controversial and politically divisive episodes of the Second World War - genocidal violence perpetrated against Serbs, Jews, and Roma by the pro-Nazi Ustasha regime in the Independent State of Croatia (1941-1945) - the book examines the origins and history of the relevant atrocity images, and charts their post-war fate. Drawing on extensive research in national and regional archives and museums in Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia, Jovan Byford scrutinizes the institutional dynamic behind the collection and preservation of atrocity photographs, and explores their contextualization, narrative framing and audiencing in the press, museum exhibitions, books, film and television documentaries, in war crimes trials and other settings, between 1945 and the present. The book pays particular attention to the continuities and discontinuities in the ways in which atrocity photographs shaped the public perception of Ustasha violence, first in socialist Yugoslavia and later also in successor states, and examines how images were strategically and selectively mobilized to sustain particular political or cultural agendas. In exploring this hitherto neglected aspect of Yugoslav history and visual culture, the book offers important insights into a number of issues of broader contemporary relevance. These include the political and emotional impact of violent images, and the intricate nexus of political, cultural and psychological factors which account for their prominent role as a medium for public remembrance of traumatic historical events.

Описание: From Author Jovan Hutton Pulitzer: This book is 50% treasure legends for the state and 50% customizable personal journal. Is Treasure really out there? A resounding YES Over $14 trillion dollars of it Then why is "Treasure Hunting" considered to be a dirty word and said in hushed tones?

Thanks to better technology, better research tools and that good ol' American Spirit and Determination "10 Treasure Legends" is a simple book series BUT NOTE: This book is both a treasure legend book AND a documentation and journaling book with blank pages behind each treasure legend featured, so you can keep notes, comments, records and details of your hunt for that particular treasure. Half book of legends, half journaling book. This series features one book for each State in the United States. The 10 Treasure Legends inside this work are legends of buried or lost treasure and fortunes. If you are willing to separate fact from fiction - who knows?
