Free Download In Koli Jean Bofane, Marjolijn de Jager, "Congo Inc.: Bismarck's Testament" English | 2018 | ISBN: 0253031907 | EPUB | pages: 214 | 7.4 mb To the sound of machine gun fire and the smell of burning flesh, award-winning author In Koli Jean Bofane leads readers on a perilous, satirical journey through the civil conflict and political instability that have been the logical outcome of generations of rapacious multinational corporate activity, corrupt governance, widespread civil conflict, human rights abuses, and environmental degradation in Africa. Isookanga, a Congolese Pygmy, grows up in a small village with big dreams of becoming rich. His vision of the world is shaped by his exploits in Raging Trade, an online game where he seizes control of the world's natural resources by any means possible: high-tech weaponry, slavery, and even genocide. Isookanga leaves his sleepy village to make his fortune in the pulsating capital Kinshasa, where he joins forces with street children, warlords, and a Chinese victim of globalization in this blistering novel about capitalism, colonialism, and the world haunted by the ghosts of Bismarck and Leopold II. Told with just enough levity to make it truly heartbreaking, Congo Inc. is a searing tale about ecological, political, and economic failure.  Free Download Congestive Heart Failure By Jeffrey D.

Free Download Stephen Finlay, "Confusion of Tongues: A Theory of Normative Language " English | ISBN: 0199347492 | 2014 | 288 pages | PDF | 2 MB Can normative words like "good," "ought," and "reason" be defined in entirely non-normative terms? Confusion of Tongues argues that they can, advancing a new End-Relational theory of the meaning of this language as providing the best explanation of the many different ways it is ordinarily used. Philosophers widely maintain that analyzing normative language as describing facts about relations cannot account for special features of particularly moral and deliberative uses of normative language, but Stephen Finlay argues that the End-Relational theory systematically explains these on the basis of a single fundamental principle of conversational pragmatics. These challenges comprise the central problems of metaethics, including the connection between normative judgment and motivation, the categorical character of morality, the nature of intrinsic value, and the possibility of normative disagreement. Finlay's linguistic analysis has deep implications for the metaphysics, epistemology, and psychology of morality, as well as for the nature and possibility of normative ethical theory. Most significantly it supplies a nuanced answer to the ancient Euthyphro Question of whether we desire things because we judge them good, or vice versa. Normative speech and thought may ultimately be just a manifestation of our nature as intelligent animals motivated by contingent desires for various conflicting ends.

Free Download Conflicting Images: Histories of War Photography in the News English | 2024 | ISBN: 0415618320 | 291 Pages | PDF (True) | 19 MB Stuart Allan and Tom Allbeson critically explore diverse genres of war photography across a broad historical sweep, encompassing events from the Crimean War (1853-56) and the Civil War in the United States (1861-65) up to and including conflicts unfolding in Syria and Ukraine. This book reflects on the relevance of different types of warfare to visual reporting, from colonial conquest via trench warfare and aerial bombardment, to the ideological dimensions of the Cold War, and 'embedding' and 'winning hearts and minds' during the 'War on Terror' and its aftermath. In pinpointing illustrative examples, the authors examine changing dynamics of production, dissemination, and public engagement. Readers will come to understand how current efforts to rethink the future of war photography in a digital age can benefit from a close and careful consideration of war photography's origins, early development, and gradual, uneven transformation over the years. Conflicting Images aims to invigorate ongoing enquires and inspire new, alternative trajectories for future research and practice.  Free Download Conference Proceedings of 2022 2nd International Joint Conference on Energy, Electrical and Power Engineering by Cungang Hu, Wenping Cao English | PDF (True) | 2023 | 1326 Pages | ISBN : 9819943337 | 139.2 MB This book will be a collection of the conference manuscripts presented at the 2022 2nd International Joint Conference on Energy, Electrical and Power Engineering covering new and renewable energy, electrical and power engineering. It is expected to report the latest technological developments in the fields developed by academic researchers and industrial practitioners. The application and dissemination of these technologies will benefit the research community, as new research directions are becoming increasingly interdisciplinary, requiring researchers from different research areas to come together and share ideas. It will also benefit the electrical engineering and energy industry, as we are now experiencing a new wave of industrial revolution, i.e. the electrification, intelligentisation and digitalisation of our transport, manufacturing processes and way of thinking.  Free Download Concurrency with Modern C++ by Rainer Grimm English | 2024 | ISBN: 9798873420933 | 737 pages | True PDF EPUB | 23.01 MB  Free Download Concrete revolution : large dams, Cold War geopolitics, and the US Bureau of Reclamation By Sneddon, Christopher 2015 | 344 Pages | ISBN: 022628431X | PDF | 2 MB Water may seem innocuous, but as a universal necessity, it inevitably intersects with politics when it comes to acquisition, control, and associated technologies. While we know a great deal about the socioecological costs and benefits of modern dams, we know far less about their political origins and ramifications. In Concrete Revolution, Christopher Sneddon offers a corrective: a compelling historical account of the US Bureau of Reclamation's contributions to dam technology, Cold War politics, and the social and environmental adversity perpetuated by the US government in its pursuit of economic growth and geopolitical power. Founded in 1902, the Bureau became enmeshed in the US State Department's push for geopolitical power following World War II, a response to the Soviet Union's increasing global sway. By offering technical and water resource management advice to the world's underdeveloped regions, the Bureau found that it could not only provide them with economic assistance and the United States with investment opportunities, but also forge alliances and shore up a country's global standing in the face of burgeoning communist influence. Drawing on a number of international case studies-from the Bureau's early forays into overseas development and the launch of its Foreign Activities Office in 1950 to the Blue Nile investigation in Ethiopia-Concrete Revolution offers insights into this historic damming boom, with vital implications for the present. If, Sneddon argues, we can understand dams as both technical and political objects rather than instruments of impartial science, we can better participate in current debates about large dams and river basin planning.  Free Download Pnina Motzafi-Haller, "Concrete Boxes: Mizrahi Women on Israel's Periphery " English | ISBN: 0814340598 | 2018 | 345 pages | EPUB | 1417 KB Concrete Boxes: Mizrahi Women on Israel's Periphery offers a rich depiction of contemporary life in one marginalized development town in the Israeli Negev. Placing the stories of five women at the center, author Pnina Motzafi-Haller depicts a range of creative strategies used by each woman to make a meaningful life within a reality of multiple exclusions. These limitations, Motzafi-Haller argues, create a "concrete box," which, unlike the "glass ceiling" of the liberal feminist discourse, is multi-dimensional and harder to break free from. |
