Download or read book The State and Social Transformation in Tunisia and Libya, 1830-1980 written by Lisa Anderson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book traces growing state intervention in the rural areas of Tunisia and Libya in the middle 1800s and the diverging development of the two countries during the period of European rule. State formation accelerated in Tunisia under the French with the result that, with independence, interest-based policy brokerage became the principal form of political organization. For Libya, where the Italians dismantled the pre-colonial administration, independence brought with it the revival of kinship as the basis for politics. Originally published in 1986.

Download or read book Emmanuel's Book III written by Pat Rodegast and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiring words of Emmanuel, brought to us through channel Pat Rodegast, have opened the way to wisdom for thousands of people. In our troubled world, his loving message, so beautifully expressed, has been balm for the hurting soul as well as clear guidance for living—both with others on this earth and within the Self. Now Emmanual focuses on a special topic, the question of Angels. Do they exist? What do they do? Where are they? Are there fallen angels? What do they mean for our lives? His answers tell us not about the mystical creatures “out there.” But about the marvelous, powerful being “in here,” the eternal, omnipresent Angel who is always with us and waiting to be found. In moments of need, despair, pain, and terror, when we cry out for help and for truth, Emmanuel shows us where the doorway lies that leads away from fear and toward the way Home.

Download or read book Genocide by Attrition written by Samuel Totten and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume documents the Sudanese government's campaign of genocidal attacks and forced starvation against the people of the Nuba Mountains in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Genocide by Attrition provides powerful insights and analysis of the phenomenon and bears witness to ongoing atrocities. This second edition features more interviews, a new introduction, and a revised and more detailed historical overview. Among the themes that link most of the interviews are: the political and economic disenfranchisement of the Nuba people by the government of Sudan; the destruction of villages and farms and the murder and deaths of the Nuba people; the forced relocation into so-called "peace camps" and the impact of forced starvation. The book also documents the frustration of the Nuba people at being left out of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement signed between the South and the North in 2005, President Omar al Bashir's threats against the Nuba people, and the crisis in the Nuba Mountains since June 2011. Genocide by Attrition provides a solid sense of the antecedents to the genocidal actions in the Nuba Mountains. It introduces the main actors, describes how the Nuba were forced into starvation by their government, and tells how those who managed to survive did so. Samuel Totten provides a valuable resource to study the imposition of starvation as a tool of genocide.

Download or read book Aldrovandi on Chickens written by L. R. Lind and published by . This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aldrovandi on Chickens, written in 1598, is the first English translation of any work by the Italian naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi. It exemplifies the spirit and the letter of Renaissance science--the former, in the extensive classical references; the latter, through careful examination of every process involved with the raising or use of chickens. Aldrovandi discusses such concepts as artificial stimulation of egg production, culling, and flock behavior. He traces reproduction in great detail from the competition of sperm in the oviduct to the position of the developed chick. The author directs himself particularly to the chicken's beneficial effects on human life. In addition to recipes, he lists remedies concocted from chickens for many diseases, and the prescriptions provide a fascinating glimpse of the medical practices of the time. The chicken family, Aldrovandi suggests, is an admirable example of unity for the human family--provided the rooster's extraordinary lustfulness is not emulated. As the well-known Italian zoologist Alessandro Ghigi points out in his foreword to this translation, Aldrovandi on Chickens contributes substantially to the history of science and the study of ornithology. The author's genius and unique style make the book an important representative of one of the golden ages of the intellect.
