 Erasmo Coronado Gamboa, "Mexican Labor and World War II: Braceros in the Pacific Northwest, 1942-1947 " English | ISBN: 029597849X | 2000 | 208 pages | EPUB | 4 MB "Although Mexican migrant workers have toiled in the fields of the Pacific Northwest since the turn of the century, and although they comprise the largest work force in the region's agriculture today, they have been virtually invisible in the region's written labor history. Erasmo Gamboa's study of the bracero program during World War II is an important beginning, describing and documenting the labor history of Mexican and Chicano workers in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho and contributing to our knowledge of farm labor."―Oregon Historical Quarterly  Methane Activation and Utilization in the Petrochemical and Biofuel Industries by Hua Song, Jack Jarvis, Shijun Meng, Hao Xu, Zhaofei Li, Wenping Li English | EPUB | 2022 | 264 Pages | ISBN : 3030884236 | 64.6 MB This book discusses effective and alternative uses for natural gas (NG) and highlights the utilization of NG in the field of methane activation and chemical production.

Messianic Thought Outside Theology By Anna Glazova (editor), Paul North (editor) 2014 | 316 Pages | ISBN: 0823256715 | PDF | 2 MB Why did a "secularized" concept of messianicity seem so crucial in the twentieth century? Are messianic structures intelligible outside the theological systems in which they were invented? This book seeks to situate the ethical, ontological, and literary adoptions of messianism within the broader contours of messianic thought.The gesture by Benjamin, Rosenzweig, and others of detaching messianism from the person of the messiah, understanding it instead as a redemptive potential inherent in all human history, is one facet of a broad move in political theory, philosophy, linguistics, and historiography to redeem secular thinking through theological figures.Yet already within religious discourse the messiah figure is paradoxical. With the invocation of a future arrival "to come," history is opened, yet the previous assumption of an end threatens to shut it off from whatever unexpected might come. The coming arrival, so certain, so complete, will have already come in an anteriority that seems to cancel the future and close down historical life before it starts.  Richard E Mack, "Memoir of a Cold War Soldier" English | ISBN: 0873386752 | 2000 | 232 pages | EPUB | 4 MB Fifty years after America's involvement in the Korean War began, Richard E.

His accounts, perceptions, and observations of the military culture are incisive and candid. He discusses the tasks and challenges army platoon leaders faced in Korea, the problems and concerns battalion commanders confronted in Vietnam, and the uncertainty facing all soldiers during the Cold War.

Melancholic Travelers: Autonomy, Hybridity, and the Maternal By Nowak, Katarzyna 2007 | 158 Pages | ISBN: 3631556276 | PDF | 28 MB The book analyzes traveling post-colonial subjects in recent prose by women writers of South Asian origin, tracing the links between thetropes of femininity, silence, loss, and migration. Traveling is understood as an act of generating meaning out of movement, displacement andmigration, while the position of traveling subjects is seen as that of a paradoxical liminality, yet carrying the insurgent potential of finding newmodes of agency. The argument evolves from crossing boundaries of one's own body towards radical transgression of borders of identity.Before the traveler is able to transgress the limitations exhorted by forces beyond a single person's grasp, she has to establish the boundariesof her own identity - only in order to shed its steadiness and discover liberating instability.

David Harvey, "Marx, Capital, and the Madness of Economic Reason" English | ISBN: 0190691484 | 2017 | 252 pages | AZW3 | 1373 KB Karl Marx's Capital is one of the most important texts written in the modern era. Since 1867, when the first of its three volumes was published, it has had a profound effect on politics and economics in theory and practice throughout the world. But Marx wrote in the context of capitalism in the second half of the nineteenth century, and his assumptions and analysis need to be updated in order to address to the technological, economic, and industrial change that has followed Capital's initial publication. In Marx, Capital, and the Madness of Economic Reason, David Harvey not only provides a concise distillation of his famous course on Capital, but also makes the text relevant to the twenty-first century's continuing processes of globalization. This book serves as an accessible window into Harvey's unique approach to Marxism and takes readers on a riveting roller coaster ride through recent global history.
