 Critical Perspectives on Mongo Beti By Stephen H. Arnold 1998 | 453 Pages | ISBN: 0894105868 | PDF | 19 MB Mongo Beti is the most prolific and widely read author from Cameroon, and his writings have called world attention to political corruption in his native country. These essays cover the three distinct periods of Beti's greatest activity as a writer-the first, which ran from 1953 to 1958; the re-emergence that began in 1974; and the third phase, which Arnold traces to Beti's brief return from exile in 1991.Referring to the writer as a contemporary Voltaire, as his region's most effective "gadfly" and commentator, Arnold begins the book with a discussion of Beti's place in politics and literature.

Cosmos and Society in Oceania By Daniel de Coppet; André Iteanu 1995 | 344 Pages | ISBN: 1859730426 | PDF | 12 MB Current anthropology uses expressions such as 'society as a whole', 'socio-cosmic relations', 'spatiotemporal extension', 'global ideology', and 'cosmomorphy' to establish that the clear-cut Western dichotomy between society and cosmos is not always to be found in the communities it studies. In fact, many elements that the West would at first undoubtedly classify as belonging either to the cosmos or to the society appear very often in Melanesia as belonging to neither one of these domains, but to a realm which combines the attributes of both. Focusing on different examples drawn from diverse Melanesian societies, this thought-provoking volume by eminent specialists re-examines the relationship between society and cosmos and, in the process, opens new directions for research.  Conscientization and the Cultivation of Conscience By Keqi (David) Liu 2014 | 194 Pages | ISBN: 1433125420 | PDF | 2 MB Conscientization and the Cultivation of Conscience constitutes a major contribution to the international literature on the work of Paulo Freire, one of the most influential educationalists of all time. It provides a fresh perspective on the Freirean notion of conscientization, rethinking this pivotal concept in the light of the history of ideas on conscience. The author offers a holistic, philosophical reading of Freire's texts and argues for the cultivation of conscience through love and dialogue. Such a reading, he suggests, allows us to better respond to the moral crises that face us in the age of global capitalism. The ideas advanced in this book have important implications for philosophical and cultural understanding and for educational theory and practice.

Completion Problems on Operator Matrices by Dragana S. Cvetković Ilić English | 2022 | ISBN: 1470469871 | 187 Pages | True PDF | 1.78 MB  Edward M. Barbanell, "Common-Property Arrangements and Scarce Resources: Water in the American West" English | 2001 | ISBN: 0275971732 | PDF | pages: 192 | 1.0 mb It is widely held that private ownership is the preferred end state for all scarce resources. Those who hold this view have not looked closely enough at water in the American West, Barbanell contends. Because of water's special attributes, private ownership is an ineffective means for protecting individuals interests. Splitting the various rights of ownership between individual resources users and the community to which they belong can better protect those interests. Barbanell develops a conception of this form of common ownership, a common-property arrangement, and shows that it can function effectively for water in the West. More generally, he offers an expanded framework for analyzing right relationships and examining problems related to resource scarcity. |
