Описание: Why do some people invoke the law (or resist it) as a way to solve their problems and achieve more stability in life, only to end up in another challenging and uncertain situation? This book offers an original understanding of the important, but understudied, paradoxical effects of law on the survival strategies of Vietnamese people who are caught to live and work in precarious circumstances. It demonstrates how precarity influences the way people perceive, engage with, or resist the law; yet law, at the same time, creates and reinforces such a condition. Understanding the mutually reinforcing relationship between law and precarity sheds a new light on the way law enables individuals to better their condition but ultimately makes matters worse rather than better. This book will be of interest to researchers and students of law and society, political economy, anthropology, and Asian studies.

Описание: As the mother of hip-hop superstar Kanye West, Donda West has watched her son grow from a brilliant baby boy with all the intimations of fame and fortune to one of the hottest rappers on the music scene. And she has every right to be proud: she raised her son with strong moral values, teaching him right from wrong and helping him become the man he is today. In Raising Kanye, Donda not only pays homage to her famous son but reflects on all the things she learned about being his mother along the way. Featuring never-before-seen photos and compelling personal anecdotes, Donda's powerful and inspiring memoir reveals everything from the difficulties she faced as a single mother in the African-American community to her later experiences as Kanye's manager as he rose to superstardom. Speaking frankly about her son's reputation as a "Mama's Boy," and his memorable public outbursts about gay rights and President George W. Bush, Donda supports her son without exception, and here she shares the invaluable wisdom she has taken away from each experience -- passion, tolerance, patience, and above all, always telling the truth. Ultimately, she not only expresses what her famously talented son has meant to her but what he has meant to music and an entire generation.

Описание: New Age Bible of Mother Africa 2: Black & White ed. The African Origins of Race and Skin Color. A scientific exploration into OUR prehistoric extraterrestrial ancestors and their creation of all mankind. These manuals are to serve as a compilation of data, based on modern scientific discoveries and ancient text, to support the theory that all of humanity, and much of animal and plant life was genetically engineered by the Anunnaki (Ah-noon-Nah-kee). Anunnaki literally translates to mean, "Those who from heaven came down to Earth." The Anunnaki are a group of deities in ancient Mesopotamian cultures (i.e. Sumerian, Akkadian, Assyrian, and Babylonian). First, we must 'over-stand' that the knowledge of these Great Beings is also well-known and taught in many African religions, as well. Based on what we can learn of the Anunnaki connection to modern humans, may in turn help us to better understand what many modern world religions reveal as truths pertaining to Christian Genesis, or of human creation by divine creationism... in general. The author's main purpose for organizing this manual and compiling the sources herein, is to present the Ancient Astronaut Theory on these Anunnaki, and to challenge the concept(s) of creationism by breaking down the theories into 'layman terms'- to be better understood by those unfamiliar with the theories, or simply curious as to how these concepts now relate to modern day scientific knowledge of how the Earth was shaped; and how humanity, as we know it, has come to be. The other goals of this author are to debunk: all racist ideologies worldwide, the unproven theory of human evolution, as well as, the modern theory that humanity migrated 'Out of Africa' to populate all corners of the world... thus causing those people to naturally mutate into new races due to climatology, and a few other factors that will be addressed, questioned, and debunked herein.
Автор: Sithole, Tendayi Название: Steve biko ISBN: 1498518184 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781498518185 Издательство: Bloomsbury Рейтинг: Цена: 12474.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Moving away from the domain of commemorative, iconicity, monumentalization, and memorialization, Sithole uses Steve Biko's meditations as a discursive intervention to understand black subjectivity. The epistemological shift of this book is not to be bogged down by the cataloging of events, something that is popular in the literature of Steve Biko and Black Consciousness. Rather, a theoretical imagination and conceptual invention is engaged upon in order to situate Biko within the existential repertoire of blackness as a site of subjectivity and not the object of study. The theoretical imagination and conceptual invention fosters an interpretive approach and an ongoing critique that cannot reach any epistemic closure. This is what decolonial meditations are all about, opening up new vistas of thought and new modes of critique informed by epistemic breaks from "empirical absolutism" that reduce Biko to an epistemic catalogue. It is in Steve Biko: Decolonial Meditations of Black Consciousness that the black subject is engaged not only in the politics of criticism for its own sake, but philosophy of existence.
