Nakamura M: Being Together in Mobility

Being Together in Mobility

Flexible Kinship and Conviviality in the Cape Town CBD

Close to the crashing waves of Boscastle Harbour in Cornwall, the Museum of Witchcraft &amp; Magic (MoWM) contains one of the world's most loved and most influential collection of magical objects. The museum has changed much during the sixty-plus years that it has been open, yet it retains the imprint of one man in particular: its founder Cecil Williamson. This book tells Williamson's story, and covers his life as a film-maker, a MI6 operative, and an owner and creator of several museums.



Rupert White writes with an honesty and integrity, that never detracts from his affection for the person who is his subject' Professor Ronald Hutton
'A truly exhaustive account' Simon Costin
'A fantastic book, that provides us with many more pieces of the jigsaw' Steve Patterson
Rupert White has pulled together a history of Cecil Williamson's life and his museums - an extraordinary task for which we should all be extremely grateful. From the foreword by Graham King.

Getting Over Obstacles by Lennox Carty is a powerful and deeply personal collection of poems that shines a light on the everyday experiences of people living with disabilities. Through honest reflections, vivid imagery, and thoughtful storytelling, the author explores the physical, emotional and social challenges that many disabled people encounter in their daily lives.
Drawing on lived experience and observation, the poems address themes such as accessibility, independence, resilience, and the attitudes society often holds towards disability. From navigating uneven pavements and inaccessible public transport to confronting prejudice and misunderstanding, the collection highlights the obstacles that can make everyday life more difficult for wheelchair users and others with disabilities.
At the same time, Getting Over Obstacles is a book about strength, determination and hope. The poems celebrate perseverance, personal growth, and the importance of inclusion. They remind readers that disability should not define a person's potential, and that a more accessible and understanding society benefits everyone.
What makes this collection particularly striking is the combination of poetry and powerful photographic imagery. The images throughout the book visually document many of the real-world barriers discussed in the poems, reinforcing the message and giving readers a deeper insight into the realities faced by disabled people.
This thought-provoking and inspiring book invites readers to reflect on how communities, institutions and individuals can work together to remove barriers and create a more inclusive world. Getting Over Obstacles will resonate with anyone interested in disability awareness, social justice, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Getting Over Obstacles

In today's complex and uncertain world, urban and territorial resilience is vital. From natural and human-made disasters to climate change and globalization, cities and regions face challenges that demand preparedness, adaptability, and transformability, i.e., the capacity to absorb shocks. As social-ecological and complex adaptive systems, they must strengthen their ability to respond and transform. Cultural heritage is increasingly recognized as a territorial asset that enhances resilience by providing identity, tangible resources, and historical knowledge useful for risk prevention and management. In the 21st century, heritage-whether underwater, rural, or embedded in urban space -is seen not as a remnant of the past but as a living system and a source of identity, creativity, economic innovation, cohesion, and environmental sustainability. This Reprint responds to the need to rethink the role of heritage in building resilience by assembling twelve articles that examine its activation across diverse geographic contexts (marine, urban, rural, etc.). The contributions converge on a pivotal argument: heritage must shift from a preservation-focused paradigm to one of active contribution, becoming a strategic asset within place-based development and a driver of new economic activities and innovation. The papers span the Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa, and Europe and address varied forms of heritage, including maritime and underwater cultural heritage, architectural ensembles, vernacular landscapes, traditional practices, and cultural-creative industries.

Currensial Stratarchy Eruditoria Transmuting Mercatorial Environal

Cette œuvre traite des questions cruciales relatives à la lutte menée par les marginalisés contre les systèmes oppressifs en Afrique de nos jours. La problématique de la corruption, du tribalisme et de la mauvaise gérance y est traitée avec acuité, mettant en relief les défis du discours subalterne dans un contexte postcolonial. L'auteur explore avec finesse les paradigmes étatiques qui silencent les voix subalternes, perpétuant ainsi les inégalités socio-économiques sur le continent africain. Ce travail contribue à amplifier les voix subalternes. Il est essentiel pour comprendre les dynamiques de pouvoir en Afrique contemporaine. Il serait intéressant d'explorer davantage les pistes de résistance et de mobilisation face à ces systèmes oppressifs. - Professeur Patrice Nganang, Stony Brook University, New York, USA
This work addresses crucial questions relating to the struggle led by the marginalized against oppressive systems in present-day Africa. The issues of corruption, tribalism, and mismanagement are treated with acuity, highlighting the challenges of subaltern discourse in a postcolonial context. The author skillfully explores the state paradigms that silence subaltern voices, thus perpetuating socio-economic inequalities across the African continent. "This work contributes to amplifying subaltern voices. It is essential for understanding power dynamics in contemporary Africa. It would be interesting to further explore avenues of resistance and mobilization in the face of these oppressive systems." - Professor Patrice Nganang, Stony Brook University, New York, USA
