A Safundi Reader on Media, Contexts, and Identities, 1999-2024

Routledge Religion, Society and Government in Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet States

In communist Eastern Europe the churches were often a focus for opposition to communism, and in the immediate post-communist period churches played a key role in fostering national cohesion, promoting a conservative political agenda, and in rewriting national narratives to eliminate or revise communist narratives. These activities, which are implicitly conservative and nationalistic, are not naturally in step with European integration. This book explores the relationship between religion and politics in post-communist Europe, focusing especially on the degree to which religion, and religious involvement in politics, encourage Euroscepticism.

Religion and Euroscepticism in Post-Communist Europe

History in 15

Infectious disease has been the biggest threat to human life throughout history, and specific outbreaks have imprinted themselves upon our collective memory for centuries. Drawing lessons from the past to help us grapple with current and future pandemics, Global History in 15 Epidemics focuses on the social, cultural and political dimensions of humanity's response to the rise and spread of epidemic diseases. Taking a global perspective, this text explores the transnational, environmental and technological factors that promote and sustain outbreaks of epidemic disease. From smallpox in colonial America to influenza in WWI, tuberculosis in the 19th century and covid-19 in the present day, this book seeks to understand the role played by factors such as climate, migration, imperialism, the environment and human-animal interactions. It also explores the development and evolution of quarantine, public health systems and vaccination to understand state-society responses and the political and legal dimensions of outbreaks. Asking how outbreaks interact with war, racism, cultural memory and social stigma, it takes a comparative approach, exploring how the same diseases were experienced differently depending on their geographical, political and cultural settings. Finally, it asks how these experiences have fed into cultural memory and explores how epidemics and pandemics have been, and continue to be, memorialized throughout time.

African Perspectives on Peacebuilding and Leadership

In 2007, Martin Luther Agwai was deployed to Darfur as Force Commander of UNAMID, which, as the first African Union-UN hybrid mission, was to become the largest peacekeeping operation in the world. Four years earlier, Darfur had imploded, descending into violent conflicts. The international community - in the form of both activists and state actors - felt it could not remain uninvolved lest a genocide on the scale of Rwanda occurred. Despite such lofty intentions, UNAMID proved to be high on promise but low on commitment and delivery. Ultimately, it failed to address the conflicts taking place, much less build a sustainable peace. Agwai provides unique insight into what went wrong in Darfur, and the myriad challenges facing international peacekeeping operations more generally. Crucially, he highlights the lack of multi-level cooperation between the people of Darfur and the intervening parties, and how the absence of a bottom-up approach to peacebuilding works against peace being both achieved and maintained.

Routledge Revivals

Routledge Contemporary Africa

Focusing primarily on different phases of the post-independent Zimbabwean polity, the book draws on trends, practices and frames of reference which are applicable to many an African postcolony. These include the role, place and influence of traditional, non-mediated forms of political mobilisation, the place of discourses of colonial memory (and struggles against colonialism) in contemporary political communication, the place of the media in African society today, the nature and role of the African civil society, the rural-urban divide and the attendant variations in political messaging, the place of orality in African political communication, the role and possible influence of social media in political communication, among other factors.

Bloomsbury Studies in Black Religion and Cultures

This book fills a gap in religious studies literature by providing a historical study of Black gospel music in Britain. While Black gospel music is a global phenomenon that evolved in many places, including the Caribbean, America and Europe, many still look to America for an understanding of its origin. Dulcie Dixon McKenzie challenges this approach, asserting that there is no universal, 'one-size-fits-all' historical account of Black gospel music. Instead, McKenzie offers an alternative to the American-dominated discourse, presenting Black gospel music as a tradition that was birthed in the churches founded by African Caribbean migrants during the post-war years in Britain. This book is structured around three main themes-context, culture and conservation-and features first-hand accounts from founding members of African Caribbean Pentecostalism, as well as from selected pioneers of singing and music within the various historic congregations. It explores topics such as the arrival and settlement of African Caribbean ancestors in Britain, the exporting of African Caribbean religious beliefs and practices, the growth of African Caribbean Pentecostal churches in Britain, and illustrations of a distinctive African Caribbean Pentecostal style of congregational worship.

Michael Mann Project 2

The Persistence of Television examines more than 60 years of television to identify the elements that have entertained and informed viewers from the beginning of mass broadcasting to the present day, proposing that most television viewing is rooted in traditional programming that is still largely received in conventional ways. 
The book includes the discussion of popular shows such as Doctor Who, Twin Peaks, Who Wants to be a Millionaire and David Attenborough's nature documentaries. On-screen faces, programmes and genres drawn from British, American and Australian television services are examined to demonstrate how continuity persists in the face of change. There's no denying the excitement or the value of the new, but the authors of this book argue that it runs in tandem with enduring aspects of the already existing.
