Download or read book Invisible Crises written by George Gerbner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the contributors to this volume, the communications media deliberately blank out critical conditions and developments whose imagery would pose unacceptable challenges to the dominant structures of culture-power. Such "invisible crises" include the suppression of information about the dehumanization and stigmatization of groups of people; the drift toward ecological suicide; the neglect of vital institutions such as public education and the arts; the way in which television corrupts the electoral process; and the promotion of practices which drug, poison and kill. The book asks why the media are, in the view of contributors, withholding vital information from the public, and focuses on the increasing concentration of culture-power that, it is argued, keeps these truths from public view.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive analysis of the Lincoln-Douglas debates is “one of the most influential works of American history and political philosophy ever published (National Review). In Crisis of the House Divided, noted conservative scholar and historian Harry V. Jaffa illuminates the political principles that guided Abraham Lincoln from his reentry into politics in 1854 through his Senate campaign against Stephen Douglas in 1858. Through critical analysis of the Lincoln-Douglas debates, Jaffa demonstrates that Lincoln’s political career was grounded in his commitment to constitutionalism, the rule of law, and abolition. A landmark work of American history, it “has shaped the thought of a generation of Abraham Lincoln and Civil War scholars." To mark the fiftieth anniversary of the original publication, Jaffa has provided a new introduction (Civil War History). "A searching and provocative analysis of the issues confronted and the ideas expounded in the great debates…A book which displays such learning and insight that it cannot fail to excite the admiration even of scholars who disagree with its major arguments and conclusions."—D. E. Fehrenbacher, American Historical Review

Download or read book Irian Jaya under the Gun written by Jim Elmslie and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Elmslie traces events in Irian Jaya/West Papua from the departure of the Dutch in 1963 to December 1999. The majority of the indigenous people of the area consider themselves West Papuans living in the land of West Papua, a country incorporated into the Indonesian state without their consent or approval. Made up of Melanesian peoples, the western part of New Guinea is one of the least developed places on earth with the largest expanses outside the Amazon of untouched and, in some cases still unexplored, rainforest and wilderness. It is a region ripe for economic exploitation. Irian Jaya under the Gun chronicles the rapid changes that are taking place under the guise of Indonesian economic development and its generally pro-crony, pro-military, pro-multinational corporation, and anti-Papuan thrust. It describes what can happen to an indigenous population when insensitive governments and avaricious multinationals are more concerned about profits than the environment or the people inhabiting the land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When author Zetta Sylvia Baillou-Poitier met her husband, Floyd, in 1988, it was love at first sight. She had no idea he carried the sickle-cell trait, and he had no idea Zetta also had the sickle-cell trait. But it set the stage for the challenges the couple would face as they started a family together. In Facing Two Sickles, Zetta shares the story of raising two children diagnosed with sickle-cell disease, an inherited condition affecting a person’s haemoglobin. In this memoir, she offers a look at the disease, its symptoms, its treatment, and she tells how she leaned on the Lord. Facing Two Sickles offers encouragement and inspiration to caretakers and parents of children with sickle-cell disease. Through Zetta’s personal story, it helps one cope with the death of a loved one, and it sends the message that those coping with dire illness and loss are not alone.
