Book Domesticating Democracy

Download or read book Domesticating Democracy written by Susan Helen Ellison and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Domesticating Democracy Susan Helen Ellison examines foreign-funded alternate dispute resolution (ADR) organizations that provide legal aid and conflict resolution to vulnerable citizens in El Alto, Bolivia. Advocates argue that these programs help residents cope with their interpersonal disputes and economic troubles while avoiding an overburdened legal system and cumbersome state bureaucracies. Ellison shows that ADR programs do more than that—they aim to change the ways Bolivians interact with the state and with global capitalism, making them into self-reliant citizens. ADR programs frequently encourage Bolivians to renounce confrontational expressions of discontent, turning away from courtrooms, physical violence, and street protest and coming to the negotiation table. Nevertheless, residents of El Alto find creative ways to take advantage of these micro-level resources while still seeking justice and a democratic system capable of redressing the structural violence and vulnerability that ADR fails to treat.

  • Author : Patricia de Santana Pinho
  • Publisher : UNC Press Books
  • Release : 2018-10-26
  • ISBN : 1469645335
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book Mapping Diaspora written by Patricia de Santana Pinho and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brazil, like some countries in Africa, has become a major destination for African American tourists seeking the cultural roots of the black Atlantic diaspora. Drawing on over a decade of ethnographic research as well as textual, visual, and archival sources, Patricia de Santana Pinho investigates African American roots tourism, a complex, poignant kind of travel that provides profound personal and collective meaning for those searching for black identity and heritage. It also provides, as Pinho's interviews with Brazilian tour guides, state officials, and Afro-Brazilian activists reveal, economic and political rewards that support a structured industry. Pinho traces the origins of roots tourism to the late 1970s, when groups of black intellectuals, artists, and activists found themselves drawn especially to Bahia, the state that in previous centuries had absorbed the largest number of enslaved Africans. African Americans have become frequent travelers across what Pinho calls the "map of Africanness" that connects diasporic communities and stimulates transnational solidarities while simultaneously exposing the unevenness of the black diaspora. Roots tourism, Pinho finds, is a fertile site to examine the tensions between racial and national identities as well as the gendered dimensions of travel, particularly when women are the major roots-seekers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederick Jackson Turner Award Finalist Winner of the David Montgomery Award Winner of the Theodore Saloutos Book Award Winner of the Betty and Alfred McClung Lee Book Award Winner of the Frances Richardson Keller-Sierra Prize Winner of the Américo Paredes Book Award “A deeply humane book.” —Mae Ngai, author of Impossible Subjects “Necessary and timely...A valuable text to consider alongside the current fight for DACA, the border concentration camps, and the unending rhetoric dehumanizing Mexican migrants.” —PopMatters “A deep dive into the history of Mexican migration to and from the United States.” —PRI’s The World In the 1970s, the Mexican government decided to tackle rural unemployment by supporting the migration of able-bodied men. Millions of Mexican men crossed into the United States to find work. They took low-level positions that few Americans wanted and sent money back to communities that depended on their support. They periodically returned to Mexico, living their lives in both countries. After 1986, however, US authorities disrupted this back-and-forth movement by strengthening border controls. Many Mexican men chose to remain in the United States permanently for fear of not being able to come back north if they returned to Mexico. For them, the United States became a jaula de oro—a cage of gold. Undocumented Lives tells the story of Mexican migrants who were compelled to bring their families across the border and raise a generation of undocumented children.

Book Our Own Backyard

  • Author : William M. LeoGrande
  • Publisher : Univ of North Carolina Press
  • Release : 2009-11-18
  • ISBN : 0807898805
  • Pages : 790 pages

Download or read book Our Own Backyard written by William M. LeoGrande and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-11-18 with total page 790 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this remarkable and engaging book, William LeoGrande offers the first comprehensive history of U.S. foreign policy toward Central America in the waning years of the Cold War. From the overthrow of the Somoza dynasty in Nicaragua and the outbreak of El Salvador's civil war in the late 1970s to the final regional peace settlements negotiated a decade later, he chronicles the dramatic struggles--in Washington and Central America--that shaped the region's destiny. For good or ill, LeoGrande argues, Central America's fate hinged on decisions that were subject to intense struggles among, and within, Congress, the CIA, the Pentagon, the State Department, and the White House--decisions over which Central Americans themselves had little influence. Like the domestic turmoil unleashed by Vietnam, he says, the struggle over Central America was so divisive that it damaged the fabric of democratic politics at home. It inflamed the tug-of-war between Congress and the executive branch over control of foreign policy and ultimately led to the Iran-contra affair, the nation's most serious political crisis since Watergate.

Book Zero Frequency

  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2020-05
  • ISBN : 9781733331722
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Zero Frequency written by Mabel Katz and published by . This book was released on 2020-05 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are living in a time when many people are feeling the weight of the world on their shoulders, in the form of global and personal stress--financial challenges, illness, loneliness, depression, and lack of purpose. "Zero Frequency", by Mabel Katz, is an illuminating book that offers all struggling citizens of this planet a path out of turmoil and towards a life of happiness, peace, and abundance. As a lifelong practitioner and leading authority on Ho'oponopono, the ancient Hawaiian art of problem-solving, Mabel Katz's new book presents wisdom in a more practical and modern way--one that simultaneously speaks to the mind and heart, while also cutting through many of the mind traps and illusions that prevent us from experiencing truth. In this book, you will come to understand that "Zero Frequency" is a direct pipeline back to who we are--to our true essence. "Zero Frequency" is also a suspension of mind and thought that would allow us to return to the fullness of the Present Moment. Mabel calls this a return to our natural state of Zero--the limitless state that comes when we live in the Now--present, conscious, free of judgment--allowing our hearts to open to the wisdom that already lives within each of us. This book will lay down a concrete path to help its readers wake up and realize their potential. It is a book that is written with the unwavering belief that the more we help (and heal) ourselves, the more we help (and heal) the planet. Living from who we are is at the core of "Zero Frequency", a combination of gratitude, letting go, and practicing peace. "Zero Frequency" is like returning to our childhood, and the joy and innocence we have lost as time and age have buried who we are. Rediscovering this part of ourselves--our true self--is the pathway back to opening our hearts to abundance, peace, and joy. It is where all the answers to life's problems will be found. It is the heart and soul of "Zero Frequency".--Publisher.
