Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about if most things forevermore remained the same as they did throughout the 1980's and early 1990's. This book also takes place in a parallel universe, where my parents are much closer to my Father's family instead of my Mother's, we move into another house on a lot of property together under one roof with my paternal grandmother, We continue to drive vehicles such as Full-Size Station Wagons, Pickup Trucks, Suburbans, Full-Size Vans, Volkswagens, Audis, and Mercedes-Benzs. Moreover, this book is not about being tolerant of the latest automotive trends, the latest fashion trends, the latest men's & women's hairstyles, life in the sports world, life in the 21st century, the modernization of NASCAR, the egotistic drivers and egocentric ways of other sanctions of automobile racing such as Indy Car and Formula 1; and this book also about not being tolerant of people with tattoos. This book is a wielding of Alternate History. They are based on fact and are not entirely conjectural, and they are a representation of what could have happened in reality; and what should have happened in reality. Storer Broadcasting is still in business, Storer still owns and operates WJBK-TV in Detroit, along with their Television Stations in Cleveland, Atlanta, and in Milwaukee; most of Storer's Television Stations (including WJBK-TV, and excluding WSBK-TV in Boston) are still affiliated with CBS; and ABC still owns and operates WXYZ-AM and TV, and WRIF-FM. There are also studies of Backcasting in this series of Early Life And Continuous Livelihood books, tracing how things came to be the way they are in reality. For instance-how the ex-Storer stations changed from being CBS to FOX affiliates, how the FOX Broadcasting Company ever came into being, how and why FOX had outbid CBS in an upset for the NFL NFC rights in 1993, how and why CBS had lost the rights to the NBA to NBC in 1989 after having held them for nearly 20 consecutive years since 1972, and NBC's contractual rights taking place at the beginning of the 1990-1991 NBA season; how NBC-over the course of the late 1990's and the early 2000's, would lose the NFL NFC rights and the rights to the NBA; how cable and satellite television came into being the dominant form of television in lieu of terrestrial television and the Big 3 Television and Radio networks (CBS, ABC, and NBC) forevermore being the dominant form of television, how automotive trends such as conventional Full-Size, Body-On Frame Passenger Cars had disappeared; how and why Station Wagons as a whole had disappeared, why Conversion Vans and Conversion Suburbans, along with the Conversion Vehicle sub-branch of the RV industry have disappeared as a whole, why other automotive trends such as center-band two-tone paint schemes and red and blue interior colors have disappeared; why during the latter half of the 20th Century and well into the 21st Century-homes began to be built far more cheaply then say, as recently as the 1980's and earlier; and why home trends such as wood paneling, wallpaper, and doweling posts have disappeared.

Download or read book Circumpolar Lives and Livelihood written by Robert Jarvenpa and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Circumpolar Lives and Livelihood is a cross-cultural ethnoarchaeological study of the gendered nature of subsistence in northern hunter-gatherer-fisher societies. Based on field studies of four circumpolar societies, it documents the complexities of women?s and men?s involvement in food procurement, processing, and storage, and the relationship of such behaviors to the built landscape. Avoiding simplistic stereotypes of male and female roles, the framework of ?gendered landscapes? reveals the variability and flexibility of women?s and men?s actual lives in a manner useful for archaeological interpretations of hunter-foragers. Innovative in scope and design, this is the first study to employ a controlled, four-way, cross-cultural comparison of gender and subsistence. Members of an international team of anthropologists experienced in northern scholarship apply the same task-differentiation methodology in studies of Chipewyan hunter-fishers of Canada, Khanty hunter-fisher-herders of Western Siberia, S¾mi intensive reindeer herders of northwestern Finland, and I_upiaq maritime hunters of the Bering Strait of Alaska. This database on gender and subsistence is used to reassess one of the bedrock concepts in anthropology and social science: the sexual division of labor.
Download or read book Limited Livelihoods written by Sonya O. Rose and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrating analytical tools from feminist theory, cultural studies and sociology to illuminate detailed historical evidence, Sonya Rose argues that gender was a central organizing principle of the nineteenth-century industrial transformation in England. She elaborates a cultural theory of gender that suggests why it is an inherent aspect of all social and economic relations. Analysing employer strategies and state policies and the role of work in family life, she demonstrates that neither industrial transformation nor class relations can be understood when reduced to gender-neutral and abstract forces.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Society for the Anthropology of Work book prize 2017 This volume presents a global range of ethnographic case studies to explore the ways in which - in the context of the restructuring of industrial work, the ongoing financial crisis, and the surge in unemployment and precarious employment - local and global actors engage with complex social processes and devise ideological, political, and economic responses to them. It shows how the reorganization and re-signification of work, notably shifts in the perception and valorization of work, affect domestic and community arrangements and shape the conditions of life of workers and their families.

Download or read book Livelihoods Natural Resources and Post Conflict Peacebuilding written by Helen Young and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustaining and strengthening local livelihoods is one of the most fundamental challenges faced by post-conflict countries. By degrading the natural resources that are essential to livelihoods and by significantly hindering access to those resources, conflict can wreak havoc on the ability of war-torn populations to survive and recover. This book explores how natural resource management initiatives in more than twenty countries and territories have supported livelihoods and facilitated post-conflict peacebuilding. Case studies and analyses identify lessons and opportunities for the more effective design of interventions to support the livelihoods that depend on natural resources – from land to agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and protected areas. The book also explores larger questions about how to structure livelihoods assistance as part of a coherent, integrated approach to post-conflict redevelopment. Livelihoods and Natural Resources in Post-Conflict Peacebuilding is part of a global initiative to identify and analyze lessons in post-conflict peacebuilding and natural resource management. The project has generated six books of case studies and analyses, with contributions from practitioners, policy makers, and researchers. Other books in this series address high value resources, land, water, assessing and restoring natural resources, and governance.
Download or read book The Open Question written by Peter May and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-05-12 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golfing legend Ben Hogan went to his grave believing he had won a record five US Open titles. The USGA says otherwise, and the controversy has endured for over 75 years. In 1942, the United States Golf Association (USGA) cancelled its four golf tournaments for the duration of World War II. But then it did something different in only that year—it sponsored the Hale-America National Open on the same weekend as the cancelled US Open. The great Ben Hogan won that tournament and went to his grave believing he had therefore won a record five US Open titles. In The Open Question, Peter May turns his attention to this controversial, colorful Hale-America National Open of 1942. While providing an in-depth look at the tournament itself, May champions Hogan’s claim to five US Open titles and debunks some questionable assertions that the tournament was not worthy of a US Open. Set against the backdrop of World War II, May also tells the stories of other professional golfers in the tournament and the impact of the war on all their lives. The USGA has never recognized the Hale-America Tournament as an official US Open and remains firm in its stance. It was a decision that bothered Ben Hogan for the rest of his life. The Open Question shows how dominant Ben Hogan was against some of the biggest names in golf, and reveals why he deserves to be recognized as a five-time US Open winner.
Download or read book The History of Live Music in Britain Volume I 1950 1967 written by Simon Frith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The social history of music in Britain since 1950 has long been the subject of nostalgic articles in newspapers and magazines, nostalgic programmes on radio and television and collective memories on music websites, but to date there has been no proper scholarly study. The three volumes of The History of Live Music in Britain address this gap, and do so from the unique perspective of the music promoter: the key theme is the changing nature of the live music industry. The books are focused upon popular music but cover all musical genres and the authors offer new insights into a variety of issues, including changes in musical fashions and tastes; the impact of developing technologies; the balance of power between live and recorded music businesses; the role of the state as regulator and promoter; the effects of demographic and other social changes on music culture; and the continuing importance of do-it-yourself enthusiasts. Drawing on archival research, a wide range of academic and non-academic secondary sources, participant observation and industry interviews, the books are likely to become landmark works within Popular Music Studies and broader cultural history.

Download or read book Rural Livelihoods Regional Economies and Processes of Change written by Deborah Sick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, new technologies and expanding networks of production and consumption have been changing the face of rural economies in significant ways. Millions of rural dwellers have found survival increasingly difficult and have fled to urban centres. Others have remained: some retrenching, struggling to just subsist, others attempting to innovatively redefine their place within ‘new’ rural economies. Over the past 30 years, rural economies have largely been ignored by policy makers, but recent growing concerns about food security, environmental degradation, climate change, continued rural poverty, and high rates of out-migration have sparked renewed interest in rural regions. Covering a range of geographical and socio-cultural contexts, the case studies in this book draw on actor-oriented in-depth field studies, which provide detailed, locally focused perspectives on the nature of rural livelihoods today. The collection highlights the ways in which rural livelihoods are being redefined, the multiple ways in which rural dwellers draw on distinct social, cultural and environmental resources to formulate their livelihood strategies, and the factors which facilitate or limit their abilities to do so. This volume will be of interest to development practitioners and policy makers, and scholars working in rural development and economic anthropology.
