Book Foundations of the Nazi Police State

Download or read book Foundations of the Nazi Police State written by George C. Browder and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The abbreviation "Nazi," the acronym "Gestapo," and the initials "SS" have become resonant elements of our vocabulary. Less known is "SD," and hardly anyone recognizes the combination "Sipo and SD." Although Sipo and SD formed the heart of the National Socialist police state, the phrase carries none of the ominous impact that it should. Although no single organization carries full responsibility for the evils of the Third Reich, the SS-police system was the executor of terrorism and "population policy" in the same way the military carried out the Reich's imperialistic aggression. Within the police state, even the concentration camps could not rival the impact of Sipo and SD. It was the source not only of the "desk murderers" who administered terror and genocide by assigning victims to the camps, but also of the police executives for identification and arrest, and of the command and staff for a major instrument of execution, the Einsatzgruppen. Foundations of the Nazi Police State offers the narrative and analysis of the external struggle that created Sipo and SD. This book is the author's preface to his discussion of the internal evolution of these organizations in Hitler's Enforcers: The Gestapo and the SS Security Service in the Nazi Revolution.

Book The Namibian Issue  1920 1980

Download or read book The Namibian Issue 1920 1980 written by Elna Schoeman and published by Hall Reference Books. This book was released on 1982 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This substantial bibliographical work focuses mainly on international relations, diplomacy and legal proceedings, but also includes minor sections on economics, politics, resources, labour, administration and the role of the churches. It contains close to 1500 entries, covering books, documents as well as articles from a wide range of periodicals. Most of the entries are annotated, but the annotations are brief and not very informative. South African and Western standpoints are covered extensively, while coverage of African opinion is thin and SWAPO material and anti-apartheid publications are scarcely touched. For many students, the sections on UN documents and International Court of Justice material will, however, provide a useful working resource. The author, who is a librarian at the University of Witwatersrand, restricted her research to library resources available in Johannesburg and Pretoria. The bibliography includes a chronology (1883-1980), a subject guide and an author index. This workis an expansion and updating of a previous publication: South West Africa/Namibia: An international issue, 1920-1977. A Select Bibliography (Johannesburg: South African Institute of International Affairs, 1978). See also two bibliographies which concentrate on UN and South Africa's foreign relations: Gail L. Rogaly: South Africa's Foreign Relations, 1961-1979. A select and partially annotated bibliography (Johannesburg: SAIIA 1980, 462 p.) and Elna Schoeman: South Africa and the United Nations (Johannesburg: SAIIA, 1981, 244 p.). Elna Schoeman is also the co-author of a more recent bibliography on Namibia. (Eriksen/Moorsom 1989).

Book Transforming a Wasted Land

Download or read book Transforming a Wasted Land written by Richard Moorsom and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first sectoral study in CIIR's series of booklets on the economic problems of the transition to independence in Namibia, condensed from a much longer and more empirically detailed original draft. It is one of the most solidly researched of the recent development studies, drawing on a wide range of secondary sources in Afrikaans and German as well as English. It also benefits from the author's previous historical work, especially on rural class formation and labour migration (see nos. 56, 664, 667). Background is provided by short chapters on the "agriculture of theft": a residual peasantry and capitalist settler farmers locked together by the migrant labour system. A central chapter analyses the exploitation and crisisridden nature of present-day agriculture. The final chapter assesses both the short- and long-term possibilities for agricultural development, setting SWAPO's commitment to social ownership and equality in the likely context of post-independence Namibia. It states the case for radical and early transformation, arguing inter alia that collapse in the ranch sector can only be avoided through social ownership, of which producer cooperatives may be the most desirable form, that the technical scope for a large expansion of the area of peasant cultivation in the north is considerable and that popular participation is vital to success as well as social justice. In each chapter the disadvantaged position of women, sidelined in much of the literature, is integrated into the analysis. There is also a full bibliography and a wide range of tables. (Eriksen/Moorsom 1989).

Book Walvis Bay and the Penguin Islands

Download or read book Walvis Bay and the Penguin Islands written by D. S. Prinsloo and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study report, written by a South African political scientist, is to argue that South Africa's claim to sovereignty over Walvis Bay is indisputable. Apart from presenting a legal case for this position, the main argument is that a South African military presence would be in the best interest of Namibia as well as for the West "as long as political and economic instability threatens South Africa". See also a similarly motivated study by J.A. Faris: "The administration of WalvisBay", South African Yearbook of International Law, (Pretoria), 5, 1979: 63-91. (Eriksen/Moorsom 1989).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this book explore varieties of baptismal practice today, address the continuing problem of 're-baptism', offer fresh perspectives on the relation between baptism and Christian ethics, and call the churches to draw the full implications for Christian unity of their 'mutual recognition of baptism'. Baptism, the birthright common to all Christians, is a cornerstone of the ecumenical movement. Continuing the dialogue among liturgists, theologians, church musicians and pastors begun in So We Believe, So We Pray (WCC, 1995), this book focuses on baptism in relation the unity of the church. Exploring patterns of baptismal practice today, it includes striking examples of inculturation from around the world. It also insists on the link between liturgy and life. With contributions from Gordon Lathrop, Anscar Chupungco, OSB and Janet Crawford, this book is an important resource for everyone concerned with baptism, worship, the life of the church and the ecumenical movement today.
