Book excerpt: L'histoire des pied-noirs et des années soixante retracée dans ce roman-mémoire."C'est notre route à tous les deux. Certes tout n'est pas ou n'a pas été parfait, nous avons donné beaucoup d'amour, fait ce que nous avons cru devoir faire envers nos enfants et envers nos amis comme bien d'autres couples de par ce monde. Avec cet écrit j'espère laisser un (humble) témoignage à la génération montante, pour qu'ils découvrent un peu de leur passé, qu'ils sachent d'où ils viennent et qu'ils connaissent tout ce chemin parcouru par les «vieux». J'ai regardé un peu en arrière, mais j'espère que devant il reste encore de la vie et de l'espoir. Y a pas de raison! et j'espère ajouter encore quelques lignes à ce livre."

Download or read book Pioneers of Change in Ethiopia written by Bahru Zewde and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-08 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exciting new study, Bahru Zewde, one of the foremost historians of modern Ethiopia, has constructed a collective biography of a remarkable group of men and women in a formative period of their country’s history. Ethiopia’s political independence at the end of the nineteenth century put this new African state in a position to determine its own levels of engagement with the West. Ethiopians went to study in universities around the world. They returned with the skills of their education acquired in Europe and America, and at home began to lay the foundations of a new literature and political philosophy. Pioneers of Change in Ethiopia describes the role of these men and women of ideas in the social and political transformation of the young nation and later in the administration of Haile Selassie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting the rapid progress in cleanup technology since the previous edition, this revised and expanded third edition of The Basics of Oil Spill Cleanup covers current cleanup techniques, how oil spills are measured and detected, and the properties of the oil and its long-term fate in the environment. It also deals with why, how often, and where oil spills occur as well as the chemical composition and physical properties of various oil types. The chapters describe surface and remote sensing technologies used to detect and track oil slicks, and methods to contain oil on water (booms and ancillary equipment) and recover oil from the water surface (skimmers, sorbents, and manual recovery). The author discusses the use of pumps, in-situ burning, and chemical agents, such as dispersants, for oil removal. He also addresses oil-contaminated shorelines and the effects and behavior of oil on different ecosystems and the various organisms within them. Written for the general public as well as those directly involved with oil spill cleanup, this edition provides broad, up-to-date knowledge of the cleanup and control of spills.

Download or read book A History of Africa written by Hosea Jaffe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning more than two thousand years of African history, from the African Iron Age to the collapse of colonialism and the beginnings of independence, Hosea Jaffe's magisterial work remains one of the few to do full justice to the continent's complex and diverse past. The great strength of Jaffe's work lies in its unique theoretical perspective, which stresses the distinctive character of Africa's social structures and historical development. Crucially, Jaffe rejects all efforts to impose Eurocentric models of history onto Africa, whether it be liberal notions of 'progress' or Marxist theories of class struggle, arguing instead that the key dynamics underpinning African history are unique to the continent itself, and rooted in conflicts between different modes of production. The work also includes a foreword by the distinguished economist and political theorist Samir Amin, in which he outlines the contribution of Jaffe's work to our understanding of African history and its ongoing post-colonial struggles.

Download or read book Al Shabaab in Somalia written by Stig Jarle Hansen and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2013 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hansen explores the history of the Somalia based Al Harakat Al Shabaab from 2005 to 2012, offering the first in-detail history of one of the most important Al-Qaeda affiliates today and the first to conquer large territories. He anchors the organisation in its local context, describing it as set in the nexus of global and local streams of influence, employing terror strategically, often in order to offset diplomatic and military defeats. He then follows it as an early network into the post-2010 phase where it struggles against a superior enemy but still remains an actor to be reckoned with.
Download or read book Cultural Expertise and Litigation written by Livia Holden and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2011-05-30 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Expertise and Litigation addresses the role of social scientists as a source of expert evidence, and is a product of their experiences and observations of cases involving litigants of South Asian origin. What is meant in court by "culture," "custom" and "law"? How are these concepts understood by witnesses, advocates, judges and litigants? How far are cross-cultural understandings facilitated - or obscured - in the process? What strategies are adopted? And which ones turn out to be successful in court? How is cultural understanding – and misunderstanding – produced in these circumstances? And how, moreover, do the decisions in these cases not only reflect, but impact, upon the law and the legal procedure? Cultural Expertise and Litigation addresses these questions, as it elicits the patterns, conflicts and narratives that characterize the legal role of social scientists in a variety of de facto plural settings – including immigration and asylum law, family law, citizenship law and criminal law.
