Richard Price, "Empire and Indigeneity" English | ISBN: 036756579X | 2021 | 372 pages | PDF | 2 MB Indigeneity is inseparable from empire, and the way empire responds to the Indigenous presence is a key historical factor in shaping the flow of imperial history. This book is about the consequences of the encounter in the early nineteenth century between the British imperial presence and the First Peoples of what were to become Australia and New Zealand. However, the shape of social relations between Indigenous peoples and the forces of empire does not remain constant over time. The book tracks how the creation of empire in this part of the world possessed long-lasting legacies both for the settler colonies that emerged and for the wider history of British imperial culture.

Economic and Financial Challenges for Eastern Europe:Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on the Economies of the Balkan and Eastern European Countries in the Changing World (EBEEC) in Athens, Greece, 2017 by Nicos Sykianakis English | PDF | 2019 | 557 Pages | ISBN : 3030121682 | 13.9 MB The papers in this proceedings volume were presented at the 9th international conference "The Economies of the Balkan and Eastern European Countries in the Changing World" (EBEEC) held in Athens, Greece, in April 2017.  Kalypso Nicolaidis, "Echoes of Empire: Memory, Identity and Colonial Legacies " English | ISBN: 1784530514 | 2014 | 432 pages | PDF | 3 MB How does our colonial past echo through today's global politics? How have former empire-builders sought vindication or atonement, and formerly colonized states reversal or retribution? This groundbreaking book presents a panoramic view of attitudes to empires past and present, seen not only through the hard politics of international power structures but also through the nuances of memory, historiography and national and minority cultural identities. Bringing together leading historians, poitical scientists and international relations scholars from across the globe, Echoes of Empire emphasizes Europe's colonial legacy whilst also highlighting the importance of non-European power centres- Ottoman, Russian, Chinese, Japanese- in shaping world politics, then and now. Echoes of Empire bridges the divide between disciplines to trace the global routes travelled by objects, ideas and people and forms a radically different notion of the term 'empire' itself. This will be an essential companion to courses on international relations and imperial history as well as a fascinating read for anyone interested in Western hegemony, North-South relations, global power shifts and the longue duree.  "Discourse and Truth" and "Parresia" (The Chicago Foucault Project) by Michel Foucault, edited by Henri-Paul Fruchaud, Daniele Lorenzini, translated by Nancy Luxon English | July 8, 2019 | ISBN: 022650946X | EPUB | 295 pages | 0.5 MB This volume collects a series of lectures given by the renowned French thinker Michel Foucault late in his career. The book is composed of two parts: a talk, Parrēsia, delivered at the University of Grenoble in 1982, and a series of lectures entitled "Discourse and Truth," given at the University of California, Berkeley in 1983, which appears here for the first time in its full and correct form. Together, they provide an unprecedented account of Foucault's reading of the Greek concept of parrēsia, often translated as "truth-telling" or "frank speech." The lectures trace the transformation of this concept across Greek, Roman, and early Christian thought, from its origins in pre-Socratic Greece to its role as a central element of the relationship between teacher and student. In mapping the concept's history, Foucault's concern is not to advocate for free speech; rather, his aim is to explore the moral and political position one must occupy in order to take the risk to speak truthfully.
