Download or read book Big Research Questions about the Human Condition written by Arne Jarrick and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a manifesto-like essay aiming to redress some globally present drawbacks characterizing current research in the humanities: 1. Fragmentation and thematic volatility; 2. A reluctance to acknowledge that humanities research is a truth seeking enterprise as all scientific research; 3. A certain unwillingness (or inability) to ask clear questions and to provide distinct answers to these questions. The book consists of three parts: A. Introduction, where the problem and the purpose of the book is presented; B. six chapters, each presenting a certain topic that I suggest that humanist scholars gather around with sustained efforts; C. Conclusion with some words of how to proceed and a section discussing what the humanities or should and are not or should not be.
Download or read book Empires and Autonomy written by Stephen Streeter and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization is one of the most significant developments of our time. But which elements of contemporary globalization and forms of autonomy are novel and which are merely continuations of long-standing trends? This book brings together a distinguished group of scholars who focus on historical moments that involved the establishment or protection of autonomy, moments that inevitably involved friction. By examining the dialectic between globalization and autonomy at historical junctures ranging from the Chinese occupation of Tibet in 1720 to the meeting between Reagan and Gorbachev that led to the end of the Cold War, this volume provides novel insights into the changes overtaking our contemporary world.
Download or read book Russia and Globalization written by Douglas W. Blum and published by Woodrow Wilson Center Press. This book was released on 2008-03-26 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia is a battered giant, struggling to rebuild its power and identity in an era of globalization. Several of the essays in this diverse and original collection point to the difficulty of guaranteeing a stable domestic order due to demographic shifts, economic changes, and institutional weaknesses. Other contributors focus on the country's efforts to respond to the challenges posed by globalization, and discuss the various ways in which Russia is reconceptualizing its role as an international actor. Ambivalence is a recurrent theme, according to editor Douglas W. Blum—ambivalence about globalization’s costs and benefits and the efforts required to manage them.

Download or read book Den rosa nallebj rnen written by Lea Awring Bamroat and published by Noa förlag. This book was released on 2018 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Den rosa nallebjörnen skildrar hur ett barn upplever den trauma som inträffar när familjen tvingas lämna sitt hem för att fly mot en okänd destination. Boken är skriven ur ett barns perspektiv på ett unikt sätt och med filosofiska inslag. Läs den sanna historian om hur ett litet barn kämpar för att få behålla hoppet i en mörk värld. Tack så mycket Lea Awring Bamroat för recensionsexemplar av din bok!Det är lätt att tro att barn inte förstår lika mycket som vuxna, eller att deras upplevelser suddas ut med tiden. Tyvärr är sanningen snarare att upplevelserna vi drabbas av som barn - goda såväl som tråkiga - stannar hos oss och formar oss livet ut. I Den Rosa Nallebjörnen får vi följa Lea som barn och hennes familjs kamp för att fly. Genom träffsäkra meningsuppbyggnader, hoppfullhet såväl som hopplöshet och fruktansvärda händelser som var hennes familjs vardag är denna lilla pärla på knappt 200 sidor en bok som verkligen träffar rakt i hjärtat. Den är tankeväckande, kraftfull och hjärtskärande. Lea Awring Bamroat har en förmåga i sitt skrivande att få en att känna som personerna i boken, uppleva händelserna tillsammans med dem och medryckande så du inte kan lägga ifrån dig boken. Jag hoppas hoppas att hon fortsätter skriva böcker och att jag får möjlighet att läsa dem, för jag tror att en ny författarstjärna är här. /Jennifer Johansson Jag grät mig igenom denna bok. Satt på ett flygplan påväg hem och snoret rann. Rödgråten gick jag igenom tullen. Det var en bok som verkligen grep tag i mig. Ingen ska behöva gå igenom vad Lea och hennes familj gick igenom. Det är en lättläst, välskriven bok som också är lite filosofisk emellanåt. /ACS bokhylla Fängslande, omskakande och gripande!/Jenniesboklista.com
