Director Chase Williams and his team have been following events as both Ukraine, her NATO allies, and Russia rapidly deploy forces in a dangerous game of brinksmanship.

Download or read book The Dark Zone written by Anjal Prakash and published by Orient Blackswan. This book was released on 2005 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past twenty years in Gujarat, technological changes in agricultural and intensive use of groundwater have led to a spurt in water markets. The development of competitive markets, dependent on the sinking of tubewells, has been advocated on the basis of efficiency and accessibility to the resource. However, this has generally been done without unpacking nuances of unequal social relationships, ecological and historical functions that shape groundwater access and use. The Dark Zone aims to fill this gap. It focuses on the politics of groundwater markets and its interrelation with social differentiation and class-caste relations. Based on an intensive social anthropological study of a village in north Gujarat, the book investigates the factors that shaped unrestrained use of groundwater and the responses of various social groups to this process. Using a triadic framework of the theory of agrarian institutions, ecological variables in agrarian change and the influence of the state, Prakash locates the study in the larger political economy of Gujarat. Drawing upon rich empirical material, the book should interest anthropologists, sociologists, researchers, policy makers, NGOs and water resource specialists.

When Johnny Smith was six years old, head trauma caused by a bad ice-skating accident left him with a nasty bruise on his forehead and, from time to time, those hunches…infrequent but accurate snippets of things to come.

Download or read book Dark Tongues written by Daniel Heller-Roazen and published by Mit Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of secret languages, moving among hermetic artificial tongues as diverse as criminal jargons and divine speech. Dark Tongues constitutes a sustained exploration of a perplexing fact that has never received the attention it deserves. Wherever human beings share a language, they also strive to make from it something new: a cryptic idiom, built from the grammar that they know, which will allow them to communicate in secrecy. Such hidden languages come in many shapes. They may be playful or serious, children's games or adults' work. They may be as impenetrable as foreign tongues, or slightly different from the idioms from which they spring, or barely perceptible, their existence being the subject of uncertain, even unlikely, suppositions. The first recorded jargons date to the time of the Renaissance, when writers across Europe noted that obscure languages had suddenly come into use. A varied cast of characters--lawyers, grammarians, and theologians--denounced these new forms of speech, arguing that they were tools of crime, plotted in tongues that honest people could not understand. Before the emergence of these modern jargons, however, the artificial twisting of languages served a different purpose. In epochs and regions as diverse as archaic Greece and Rome and medieval Provence and Scandinavia, singers and scribes also invented opaque varieties of speech. They did so not to defraud, but to reveal and record a divine thing: the language of the gods, which poets and priests alone were said to master. Dark Tongues moves among these various artificial and hermetic tongues. From criminal jargons to sacred idioms, from Saussure's work on anagrams to Jakobson's theory of subliminal patterns in poetry, from the arcane arts of the Druids and Biblical copyists to the secret procedure that Tristan Tzara, founder of Dada, believed he had uncovered in Villon's songs and ballads, Dark Tongues explores the common crafts of rogues and riddlers, which play sound and sense against each other.
Download or read book The Divided City written by Nicole Loraux and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-03 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of the roles of conflict and forgetting in ancient Athens. Athens, 403 B.C.E. The bloody oligarchic dictatorship of the Thirty is over, and the democrats have returned to the city victorious. Renouncing vengeance, in an act of willful amnesia, citizens call for---if not invent---amnesty. They agree to forget the unforgettable, the "past misfortunes," of civil strife or stasis. More precisely, what they agree to deny is that stasis---simultaneously partisanship, faction, and sedition---is at the heart of their politics. Continuing a criticism of Athenian ideology begun in her pathbreaking study The Invention of Athens, Nicole Loraux argues that this crucial moment of Athenian political history must be interpreted as constitutive of politics and political life and not as a threat to it. Divided from within, the city is formed by that which it refuses. Conflict, the calamity of civil war, is the other, dark side of the beautiful unitary city of Athens. In a brilliant analysis of the Greek word for voting, diaphora, Loraux underscores the conflictual and dynamic motion of democratic life. Voting appears as the process of dividing up, of disagreement---in short, of agreeing to divide and choose. Not only does Loraux reconceptualize the definition of ancient Greek democracy, she also allows the contemporary reader to rethink the functioning of modern democracy in its critical moments of internal stasis.

Book excerpt: "This book presents two decades of research at First Unnamed Cave, a precontact dark zone cave art site in East Tennessee. Discovered in 1994, First Unnamed Cave ushered in an extensive and systematic effort to research precontact cave art sites in the Eastern Woodlands and helped steer archaeological cave research for the following decades. Research into First Unnamed Cave made it clear that ancient peoples of the Eastern Woodlands, and especially in the Southeast, had practiced a widespread tradition of cave art production in the dark zones of some of the region's many caves, and these glyphs and drawings represented a deep religious tradition among early native peoples"--
