Kidane S: Silencing the Guns: Pathways

Silencing the Guns: Pathways to Sustainable Peace in Postcolonial Africa

CRESC

Shanghai actively uses culture to promote itself as a global city. This book explores how this has been conceived and pursued, and what questions it raises for notions of 'culture' and 'economy' as understood in the West. If theoretical work around the 'cultural economy' has problematized these two, this book locates these debates empirically in a non-western metropolis.

Red Creative: Culture and Modernity in China

The Radical Imagination

Since its initial 2011 publication, Theory from the South has stimulated a new field of inquiry from leading scholars, while world developments have escalated and supported its original thesis of how "Euroamerica has evolved toward Africa." Not least of these is the many resemblances of the Trump presidency to that of Jacob Zuma, transformations in the nature of many of the world's Northern democracies, the rise of populist politics, the intensifying hold of private capital over functions of the state, sharpening inequalities, and the transformation of labor. In a new chapter for this expanded edition, the Comaroffs extend their theorizing around and beyond these new developments. Critique and discussion by several prominent commentators round out this new edition: Achille Mbembe, James Ferguson, Ato Quayson, Srinivas Aravamudan, and Juan Obarrio.

Theory from the South, Revisited

Parenting on a Changing Planet

Think Like a Forest

Climate change-possibly the most pressing and difficult problem facing life on earth today-raises a series of questions that are fundamentally philosophical in nature. Some are: --Is skeptcism about climate change warranted? --Why does scientific consensus about global warming matter? --Who should pay-those who are causing the most damage or those who will bear the greatest burden-to mitigate the effects of climate change? Scientists and policy makers who grapple with these questions need the insights and contexts a philosophical analysis offers. And students and researchers in philosophy need to better know the scientific literature and political issues before offering ethical and philosophical commentary. With formal graduate training in the study of atmospheric science, a Ph.D. in philosophy, and a publication and teaching record that bridges the two areas, Wendy Parker adroitly addresses these and similar questions in, Understanding Climate Change: Science, Philosophy, and Policy. The book brings together a body of scattered research on these issues, but also breaks new ground, providing for a wide range of students and researchers a firmer footing on which to understand fully the scientific and policy issues related to climate change. The book is the first of its kind: a synoptic and coherent account-written for students and scholars in the humanities and the sciences--of the most salient philosophical issues related to our changing global climate.

The Palgrave Handbook of Kurdish Genocides

A Literary Hub Most Anticipated BookAn urgent wake-up call about the coming large-scale human displacement caused by climate change, from one of the world's leading expertsMere decades from now, millions of people all over the world will be forced to move because of climate change. Entire islands will disappear into the sea. Once-in-a-century hurricanes will occur on a regular basis, decimating cities and wiping out peoples' homes. Wildfires fed by prolonged drought will rage through communities. No one will be immune: in countries rich and poor, climate change will usher in a new era of migration. In Shelter from the Storm noted journalist and migration researcher Julian Hattem tells the story of the massive human displacement that is already being caused by climate change. With hard-hitting journalism from the front lines of the environmental apocalypse, Hattem takes the reader on a journey from the South Pacific to the Indian subcontinent, the Mediterranean, and beyond, offering a shocking glimpse into the human geography wrecked by a warming planet. Shelter from the Storm also provides rich historical perspective on how climate has impacted migration and a primer on cutting-edge climatological research, creating a multidimensional portrait of this uncertain new age. A work of profound expertise and storytelling, Shelter from the Storm gives a human face to the millions of climate migrants who are leaving their homes-and the millions more who will follow.

Routledge Explorations in Development Studies

Bridging theory and practice, this comprehensive book critically examines regional and spatial strategies for development and their outcomes, drawing on a wide range of international examples. It highlights lessons learned from the implementation of spatial and regional approaches to development, discusses the strengths and weaknesses of these various approaches and promotes a new framework of spatial and regional development, advocating a dynamic approach to local-national-global integration.

Many changes worldwide have taken place since frameworks and policies for regional and spatial development were introduced during the 'decade of development'. This book addresses the need to critically review various experiences in order to extract lessons about their strengths and weaknesses so as to facilitate more effective approaches. Bridging theory and practice, this book critically examines regional and spatial strategies for development and their outcomes, drawing on a wide range of international examples. It provides a comparative perspective in the Asia Pacific region and includes coverage of Western approaches in the United States, Europe and in Latin America. The book highlights lessons learned from the implementation of spatial and regional approaches to development and discusses the strengths and weaknesses of these various approaches in relation to issues such as national settlements, urbanization, rural development, industrialization, land use, rural-urban relations, and transport infrastructure. This book promotes a new framework of spatial and regional development, advocating a dynamic approach to local-national-global integration and a focus on new issues such as governance and inclusion, innovation and knowledge, economic and trade blocks, and regional and decentralized political economy. It argues that spatial and regional approaches would be redefined through enhanced information and communications technologies, participatory governance, developed transport networks, and better supply chain and logistics for production and distribution, with the aim to reduce spatial disparities and inequalities, spatial impediments in development and increase opportunities for economic integration and interdependencies across geographical entities. This comprehensive book is of great value to students, scholars and practitioners in regional and development planning and policy, spatial planning, economic geography, and development economics.

Development: The Basics

Suhrkamp Studienbibliothek

Im Juni 2012 feiern wir nicht nur den 300. Geburtstag von Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778), des neben Kant und Locke vielleicht wichtigsten Philosophen der Neuzeit. Es jährt sich auch das Erscheinen des politischen Hauptwerkes Rousseaus: »Vom Gesellschaftsvertrag oder Prinzipien des Staatsrechts« (»Du Contrat Social ou Principes du Droit Politique«), das 1762 in Amsterdam erschien und sogleich verboten wurde. Der »Gesellschaftsvertrag« gehört zu den wirkmächtigsten Texten der Aufklärung und wird vielfach als Gründungstext moderner Demokratietheorien und Wegbereiter der Französischen Revolution gesehen. Seine berühmten Grundideen sind: Die menschliche Gemeinschaft beruht auf einem Vertrag, dessen Voraussetzung der sogenannte Gemeinwille ist (»volonté générale«). Dieser ist mehr als die Summe der Einzelinteressen, sondern zielt auf das Wohl aller und ist unfehlbar. Durch den Vertrag werden die Bürger als Adressaten der Gesetze zugleich deren Autoren. Das ist die Geburtsstunde der Volkssouveränität! Der Band bringt Rousseaus Text in durchgesehener Übersetzung. Der Kommentar von Robin Celikates erschließt den Text historisch und systematisch und beleuchtet die enorme Wirkungsgeschichte, die seit Erscheinen des Textes vor 250 Jahren bis in die Gegenwart ungebrochen ist.
