Download or read book Women Leaders of Africa Asia Middle East and Pacific written by Guida M. Jackson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women Leaders of Africa, Asia, Middle East, and Pacific presents biographical sketches of hundreds of women leaders from earliest recorded history down to the present time. It is the first of two volumes giving data on women leaders from every continent and island in the world; the second volume deals with Europe and countries of the Western Hemisphere. Each book is divided into two sections. Part I of this volume deals with African women leaders; Part II with Asian, Middle East and Pacific women. Within each section, which is introduced by an essay overview, entries are arranged alphabetically. Suggestions for further reading on the subject appear at the end of each entry. Not all entries are merely recitations of facts. Some women's lives do not lend themselves to being reduced to statistics. Many were much too colorful, or lusty, or bloodthirsty to fit into a neat categorical description. How do you easily characterize the rule of the African queen who hacked her servant to death after she was through using him as a chair just to intimidate her new Portuguese overlord? Who kept as many as thirty slaves as sexual partners, supposedly killing them off when she had finished with them? How do you gloss over the actions of the newly enthroned Persian queen who ordered her stepbrother strangled, then had gold and silver coins struck bearing her new title: "Purity of the earthly world and of the faith"? How do you describe nicely the actions of the Chinese queen who chopped off her own hand to make a point to a man she had just condemned to death? How do you ascribe feminine traits to a grandmother who tried to kill her own grandson to keep him from succeeding her on the throne she herself had stolen? On the other hand, how do you do justice to the Queen of Tonga without mention of her commanding size six feet two inches or her forty-seven-year devotion to matters far beyond mere governance but of more importance to her subjects: like establishing handicraft outlets to market the wares of her people? Or to the Queen of Thailand who acted as Regent while the King, a devout Buddhist, performed his meditations and duties as a monk? She directed much more than affairs of state; her concern for the common people led her to promote the export of hand-woven Thai silk and to establish a chain of shops selling native crafts. She also organized the Thai Red Cross for aid to refugees, orphans, wounded soldiers, and flood victims. These and dozens of stories like them make African, Asian, Middle East, and Pacific Women Leaders a unique treasure that is hard to put down. Although most of the entries in this volume deal with women rulers, a portion of the book is devoted to women in leadership roles other than those of queen, empress, prime minister, or chieftainess. Of these additional entries, the majority deals with contemporary women judges, secretaries of state, cabinet members, or legislators of unusual influence and power.

Download or read book Asia Pacific and Africa written by South African Institute of International Affairs and published by South African Institute of International Affairs Jan Smuts House. This book was released on 2003 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, a compilation of papers presented at a conference at the South African Institute of International Affairs on "The Asia-Pacific and Africa: Realising Economic Potential", highlights the areas of opportunity in South and Southern Africa's commercial relations with countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The economic success of East Asia offers a pragmatic model for development. Africa could emulate this by establishing mutually beneficial partnerships with some of the world's fastest growing economies. Two-way trade between South Africa and countries in the Asia-Pacific region has increased significantly over the past decade, and government and business alike need to formulate strategies in order to expand this further. With long-term forecasts predicting an increasingly important role for the Asia-Pacific, Africa should do more to engage the region politically and economically. A more constructive and concerted interaction with the Asia-Pacific would lead to increased exports and services, attract investment and involve some of the region's wealthiest economies in helping to alleviate poverty in Africa. -- Publisher description

Book excerpt: For over a millennium, Asia and the Middle East have been closely connected through maritime activities and trade, a flourishing relationship that has given rise to new and thriving societies across the Indian Ocean region and Arabia. In recent times, with the global political and economic power shifts of the past decade, significant events in the Middle East and Asia have brought about fundamental global change; the Arab uprisings, the emergence of India and China as powerful global economies, the growing strength of various new Islamic movements, and serious financial uncertainties on a global scale have laid the foundations of a new world order between East and West. The current volume examines this renewed global dynamic, and how it is changing the relationships between the interdependent global communities across Asia and the Middle East. Focussing on the broader aspects of finance and trade between the Middle East and Asia, as well as growing security issues over natural resources and questions of sovereignty, this volume concludes with speculations on the growing importance of Asia and the Middle East in the global setting.
