Download or read book The Struggle for Peace written by Elizabeth Warnock Fernea and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 1992-07-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The determination of ordinary people to end regional and global conflicts is powerful despite the forces opposing them. The Struggle for Peace explores how average citizens on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict worked for peace in the late twentieth century. Essays by noted scholars are juxtaposed with profiles of individual Israelis and Palestinians involved in peace activism. What emerges is a unique perspective on the prospects for peace in this troubled area. Coordinated with a documentary film of the same name, the book is designed as a tool for the study of conflict resolution generally and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in particular. The twelve original essays deal with the issues from different disciplinary perspectives: political science (Yehoshafat Harkabi, A. R. Norton, Muhammad Muslih, and Robert Vitalis); history (Avraham Zilkha and Joel Beinin); anthropology (Robert Rubinstein); sociology (Salim Tamari); film (Steven Talley); law (Edward Sherman); and international peacekeeping (Christian Harleman). The human side of the struggle is presented through brief biographies and portraits of twenty-five ordinary Israelis and Palestinians involved in peace activities in Israel and the West Bank.

Download or read book The Zelator written by David Ovason and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-06-30 with total page 731 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS BOOK REVEALS THE CONSPIRACY BY LEONARDO, NEWTON, GOETHE AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE INITIATE TRADITION TO INFLUENCE THE COURSE OF HISTORY BY MAGIC. From the dawn of history and perhaps beyond a small group of magi working within a specific magical tradition have believed they have been influencing the course of history, guiding mankind towards higher levels of consciousness. Theirs is a reincarnationist philosophy and they believe that, as initiates of the highest order, they return in local groups at key moments to conspire to change the course of events. Whether or not their beliefs are right, whether or not their magical practices work in the way they believe, this book will prove that certain remarkable individuals, many of them famous in other areas, have undoubtedly held these beliefs. Bestsellers such as HOLY BLOOD, HOLY GRAIL and THE TOMB OF GOD have been written by amateur historians trying to penetrate the veil of secrecy that surrounds this conspiracy; here for the first time an initiate of the order reveals the truth.

Download or read book Pornocopia written by Carl Hose and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-01-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's nothing fluffy or flowery about this collection of super-dirty adult stories. The 51 tales offered in Pornocopia cover a variety of sexual tastes and situations. Every story here is explicit and well-plotted. Includes the Christmas classic Santa's Stockings, the outrageously humorous Cupid's Confession (the Little Prick with the Big Bow), and sex with female pirates in the Bermuda Triangle-inspired Pirotica. Other stories include the ghostly My Doll, where a realistic sex doll becomes a man's dead wife for one more night of pleasure; Irish Cream, where a trip to Ireland leads to kissing more than the Blarney Stone; and Eating Peaches, where peaches aren't the only sticky thing in Georgia. If you like your porn with a plot, you'll love the abundant pleasures found in Pornocopia. While this book manages to touch on romance throughout in some form or fashion, this is more of a tale to read for fun and titillati

Download or read book Wahee Neck written by Janet Joyner and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-02 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every child is a hapless carrier of the epic reverberating within family generations. The boundaries of childhood become mutable, conflating the overheard with the lived, the past with the present. WAHEE NECK, Janet Joyner's newest collection, moves like consciousness itself; outward from the individual, to the tribe, the species, and their habitats. Hers is a distinctly southern voice. And in this, her third volume, the poet guides the reader from the leaky borders of childhood toward an invasion of human and global disruptions. In her final section, Joyner contemplates the horrible possibility of annihilation of the planet. Throughout WAHEE NECK, Janet Joyner's lyrical language challenges set patterns of sound displayed in poems of both free and more formal verse; in selections short and pithy, as well as those more lengthy and narrative. A must read for the discerning. Of WAHEE NECK, North Carolina Poet Laureate Shelby Stephenson writes: Janet Joyner's WAHEE NECK extends lyrically into the body of the actual place and bodies forth the poet's world. Flue-cured tobacco barns, mules and a hinny, her childhood, family, friends, loves, and this world becomes our own. In a language at once precise and humorous (especially see "The Cousin" for the monkey that parades Berenice's neck and shoulders), WAHEE NECK currents wryly in erotic tones, pleading for equality, human dignity, as the earth exemplifies. A cat's behind in front of the seer becomes a fur piece in another time and place; a bow tie on a senator somehow moves his Adam's apple like the "wizened scrotum" keeping him from appreciating love, as mortality's song projects humanity's bodies formed and those not yet created. WAHEE NECK: "Universal, like grief."

Download or read book Wapishana Ethnoecology written by Thomas Henfrey and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-05-25 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark monograph in ethnoecology is now available in print format for the first time. Based on long-term fieldwork in Guyana during 1998, 1999 and 2000, it examines relationships between the ecological knowledge of Wapishana hunters and equivalent areas of ecological science. It places this in the ethnographic context of Wapishana settlement, subsistence and symbolism, and the wider context of the political ecology of Guyanas economic liberalisation and the consequent exposure of the indigenous peoples of Guyanas Rupununi region to extractive industries and international conservation interests for the first time. The result is a robust argument, grounded in extensive data and analysis, for alternative trajectories in conservation and international development rooted in the skills, knowledge and interests of indigenous users and custodians of biodiversity.

Download or read book Modernization in East Asia written by Richard Harvey Brown and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1992-07-22 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume East Asia is used as a unit of political and economic analysis to reveal an approach to modernization that is distinct from the Western model. The volume especially focuses on the interaction between nations of East Asia; the advantages and limits of export-led growth; relations between such processes as state formation, industrial growth, urbanization, and the movement from status- to class-based social hierarchies; and the links between state, market, and civic culture. Each chapter takes at least one country as its topic. There also is a comparative and regional perspective provided within many of the contributions. All the chapters present fresh insights and analyses with intellectual and historical depth. Modernization in East Asia contains useful theoretical frameworks and empirical data for scholars, practitioners, and students.

Download or read book Lawscape written by Nicole Graham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-07-07 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lawscape: Property, Environment, Law considers the ways in which property law transforms both natural environments and social economies. Addressing law's relationship to land and natural resources through its property regime, Lawscape engages the abstract philosophy of property law with the material environments of place. Whilst most accounts of land law have contributed cultural analyses of historical and political value predominantly through the lens of property rights, few have contributed analyses of the natural consequences of property law through the lens of property responsibilities. Lawscape does this by addressing the relationship between the commodification of land, instituted in and by property law, and ecological and economic histories. Its synthesis of property law and environmental law provides a genuinely transdisciplinary analysis of the particular cultural concepts and practices of land tenure that have been created, and exported, across the globe.
