You Can Cross the Massacre on Foot - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: In 1937 tens of thousands of Haitians living in the Dominican Republic were slaughtered by Dominican troops wielding machetes and knives. Dominican writer and lawyer Freddy Prestol Castillo worked on the Haiti-Dominican Republic border during the massacre, known as “The Cutting,” and documented the atrocities in real time in You Can Cross the Massacre on Foot. Written in 1937, published in Spanish in 1973, and appearing here in English for the first time, Prestol Castillo's novel is one of the few works that details the massacre's scale and scope. Conveying the horror of witnessing such inhumane violence firsthand, it is both an attempt to come to terms with personal and collective guilt and a search to understand how people can be driven to indiscriminately kill their neighbors.
10% Less Democracy: Why You Should Trust Elites a Little More and the Masses a Little Less - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: During the 2016 presidential election, both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders argued that elites were hurting the economy. But, drawing together evidence and theory from across economics, political science, and even finance, Garett Jones says otherwise. In 10% Less Democracy, he makes the case that the richest, most democratic nations would be better off if they slightly reduced accountability to the voting public, turning up the dial on elite influence. To do this, Jones builds on three foundational lines of evidence in areas where he has personal experience. First, as a former staffer in the U.S. Senate, he saw how senators voted differently as elections grew closer. Second, as a macroeconomist, Jones knows the merits of "independent" central banks, which sit apart from the political process and are controlled by powerful insiders. The consensus of the field is that this detached, technocratic approach has worked far better than more political and democratic banking systems. Third, his previous research on the effects of cognitive skills on political, social, and economic systems revealed many ways in which well-informed voters improve government. Discerning repeated patterns, Jones draws out practical suggestions for fine-tuning, focusing on the length of political terms, the independence of government agencies, the weight that voting systems give to the more-educated, and the value of listening more closely to a group of farsighted stakeholders with real skin in the game―a nation's sovereign bondholders. Accessible to political news junkies while firmly rooted and rigorous, 10% Less Democracy will fuel the national conversation about what optimal government looks like.
Oh, Say, Can You See: The Semiotics of the Military in Hawai'i (Borderlines series) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Everywhere you look in Hawai‘i, you see the military. Yet in dailylife relatively few people in Hawai‘i actually see the military at all. Itis hidden in plain sight.1 This paradox of visibility and invisibility, ofthe available and the hidden, marks the terrain investigated in thisbook.2For something to be in plain sight it must mark a variety ofspaces, projecting itself into a number of landscapes. For somethingto be hidden it must be indiscernible, camouflaged, inconspicuouslyfolded into the fabric of daily life. The key to this incompatibility is aseries of narratives of naturalization and reassurance. The narrativesof naturalization imbricate military institutions and discourses intodaily life so that they become “just the way things are.” The narra-tives of reassurance kick in with a more prescriptive tone, markingthe military presence in Hawai‘i as necessary, productive, heroic,desirable, good. The two narratives cross-fertilize and enliven oneanother—the military presence here is named as “natural,” thereforeas desirable, and constructive, therefore welcome. This discursiveinterbreeding between what is natural and what is good results ina tone of inevitability: what is, is good and in any case cannot bechanged.This book argues for four related claims about the military inHawai‘i. First, it is a particular kind of order, with identifiable conse-quences for Hawai‘i’s social, political, and geographic landscapes;
64 Things You Need to Know in Chess - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Because women want a direct approach when seeking answers to questions about menopause, Dr. Michele Moore has written a book that recognizes the individuality of women as it addresses their concerns in dealing with the changes of menopause.The Only Menopause Guide You'll Need is written for all women who are making decisions about treatment for symptoms of menopause. Dr. Moore invites the reader to assess her individual situation by looking into her own medical history and talking with a trusted health advisor. She helps the reader make informed choices about her treatment, should treatment be chosen, and offers a balanced account of options that range from traditional medical practice to holistic and alternative approaches. Above all, she encourages the reader to accept responsibility for her choices and to deal with the consequences of those choices while remaining proactive throughout the process. She also emphasizes the need for each woman to monitor her health condition closely and to reassess her situation as her health needs change through the years. Dr. Moore incorporates in the book her own experience with perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause, as well as stories of her friends, neighbors, colleagues, and patients. She provides information about symptoms and treatment--including lifestyle changes and herbal and homeopathic remedies in addition to the treatments offered by traditional allopathic medicine. Hers is an empathetic and broad-minded voice that draws readers in at the same time it informs them, so that they can deal with inevitable changes in body, mind, and spirit."As women, we are accustomed to cycles and seasons, but the crossing of the threshold of menopause into autumn brings grief, rage, fear, and great sadness to many women. Have you ever on a luminous autumn day had a shiver of anticipation of winter to come? And felt regret at the passing of the summer flowers and warmth? You might forget at that moment about the different pleasures of winter, and that spring and autumn come again, and that the seeds that are dormant or started in winter burst forth in glory come spring." -- from The Only Menopause Guide You'll Needآیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
