Ivan Evans, "Cultures of Violence: Lynching and Racial Killing in South Africa and the American South" English | 2010 | pages: 321 | ISBN: 0719079047 | PDF | 1,9 mb This book deals with the inherent violence of "race relations" in two important countries that remain iconic expressions of white supremacy in the twentieth century. Cultures of Violence does not just reconstruct the era of violence. Instead it convincingly contrasts the "lynch culture" of the American South to the "bureaucratic culture of violence" in South Africa. By contrasting mobs of rope-wielding white Southerners to the gun-toting policemen and administrators who formally defended white supremacy in South Africa, Cultures of Violence employs racial killing as an optic for examining the distinctive logic of the racial state in the two contexts. Combining the historian's eye for detail with the sociologist's search for overarching claims, the book explores the systemic connections among three substantive areas to explain why contrasting traditions of racial violence took such firm root in the American South and South Africa.  Cynthia Blanchette, "Cuisinart Ice Cream Cookbook: 365 Days Yummy, Homemade Recipes To Whip Up With Your Frozen Yogurt, Sorbet, Gelato, And Ice Cream Maker For Beginners And Advanced User" English | 2022 | ASIN: B0B8BJZ5K8, B0B8BHQRD7 | EPUB | pages: 115 | 5.9 mb TASTY FROZEN TREATS FOR THE SUMMER 2022！！！  Cuba: Island of Dreams By Antoni Kapcia 2000 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 1859733263 | PDF | 14 MB As spiritual home of Che Guevara and arch-enemy of the United States for more than forty years, Cuba exerts a powerful hold over people's imaginations. The Revolution and its leader, Fidel Castro, have survived invasion, repeated external and internal crisis, and most astonishingly, economic collapse and political isolation. What is at the root of the continuity and success of the 'Revolution' and in what sense can it be termed a 'revolution'? This book is the first in-depth study of Cuba to examine its history and revolutionary transformation through the evolution of ideology and myth. Music, political campaigns, street and media propaganda, literature, cinema, and drama have served to establish a cubanista tradition, supported by powerful myths such as Che Guevara and Jose Marti, the New Man, youth, and an Afro-Cuban identity. Challenging preconceptions and conventional wisdoms about Cuba and its leadership, this book presents a remarkable portrait of the distinctive history of the island's culture. The interplay of history, revolutionary action, and ideology through myth and collective experience make this book essential reading for Cuban scholars, Latin American and US historians, political analysts and those generally interested in the history and future of Cuban political culture.

Richard A. Marsden, "Cosmo Innes and the Defence of Scotland's Past c. 1825-1875" English | ISBN: 1409455939 | 2014 | 382 pages | EPUB | 5 MB Today, Scotland's history is frequently associated with the clarion call of political nationalism. However, in the nineteenth century the influence of history on Scottish national identity was far more ambiguous. How, then, did ideas about the past shape Scottish identity in a period when union with England was all but unquestioned?  Natalia A. Volosin, "Corruption in Argentina: Towards an Institutional Approach " English | ISBN: 0367338718 | 2019 | 228 pages | EPUB | 2 MB The book provides an institutional, historical, and sectorial analysis of Argentina's structural corruption. Looking back over the last 200 years, the book demonstrates that Argentina has historically addressed corruption through ineffective debates between public-private biases or a cultural-criminal approach reinforced by modernization theory, neither of which have helped tackle the problem. Instead, Volosin proposes meaningful institutional reforms to reduce opportunities for corruption and to increase monitoring incentives and capabilities.  Omar E. Hawthorne, "Corruption Scandals and their Global Impacts " English | ISBN: 1138307971 | 2018 | 264 pages | EPUB | 1484 KB Corruption scandals receive significant press coverage and scrutiny from practitioners of global governance, and bilateral and multilateral donors.
