André Chappatte, "Understanding the City through its Margins: Pluridisciplinary Perspectives from Case Studies in Africa, Asia and the Mid" English | ISBN: 0367348675 | 2019 | 190 pages | EPUB | 1153 KB Cities the world over and in particular developing countries suffer from uneven development and inequality. This is often coupled with the view that these inequalities constitute unfortunate anomalies. In contrast, this edited volume draws out the ways in which the city has not been able to exist without its margins, both materially, ideationally, and socially. In this book the margins are, first, the mirrors of the city and, second, a fundamental route through which various centers can legitimate and sustain their power. Contemporary case studies are compared to a number of those from history with the accent on Asia, Africa and the Middle East, and engage with the underlying theoretical questions of what is the urban margin and what is marginality in urban society and spaces?

Black, "Understanding Soviet Politics: The Perspective Of Russian History" English | ISBN: 0367215519 | 2020 | 322 pages | EPUB | 429 KB To what extent did the Russian revolution of 1917 bring about the changes wanted by the Bolsheviks?

Dominick LaCapra, "Understanding Others: Peoples, Animals, Pasts" English | ISBN: 1501724894 | 2018 | 204 pages | EPUB | 349 KB To what extent do we and can we understand others―other peoples, species, times, and places? What is the role of others within ourselves, epitomized in the notion of unconscious forces? Can we come to terms with our internalized others in ways that foster mutual understanding and counteract the tendency to scapegoat, project, victimize, and indulge in prejudicial and narcissistic impulses? How do various fields or disciplines address or avoid such questions? And have these questions become particularly pressing and not in the least confined to other peoples, times, and places?  Agustin Maciel-Padilla, "Understanding Mexico's Security Conundrum " English | ISBN: 0367424126 | 2020 | 106 pages | EPUB | 136 KB Unlike other analyses which aim to explain the notion of national security in Mexico and at the same time address the security challenges facing the country, this short text describes the distinction between national, internal and public security in Mexico.

Michael Bonura, "Under the Shadow of Napoleon: French Influence on the American Way of Warfare from Independence to the Eve of World War " English | ISBN: 0814709427 | 2012 | 318 pages | EPUB | 2 MB The way an army thinks about and understands warfare has a tremendous impact on its organization, training, and operations. The central ideas of that understanding form a nation's way of warfare that influences decisions on and off the battlefield. From the disasters of the War of 1812, Winfield Scott ensured that America adopted a series of ideas formed in the crucible of the Wars of the French Revolution and epitomized by Napoleon. Reflecting American cultural changes, these French ideas dominated American warfare on the battlefields of the Mexican-American War, the American Civil War, the Spanish-American War, and World War I. America remained committed to these ideas until cultural pressures and the successes of German Blitzkrieg from 1939 - 1940 led George C. Marshall to orchestrate the adoption of a different understanding of warfare. Michael A. Bonura examines concrete battlefield tactics, army regulations, and theoretical works on war as they were presented in American army education manuals, professional journals, and the popular press, to demonstrate that as a cultural construction, warfare and ways of warfare can be transnational and influence other nations.  Rhona Seidelman, "Under Quarantine: Immigrants and Disease at Israel's Gate" English | ISBN: 1978808372 | 2019 | 240 pages | EPUB | 947 KB Under Quarantine is the riveting story of Shaar Ha'aliya, a central immigrant processing camp opened shortly after Israel became an independent state. This historic gateway for Jewish migration was surrounded by a controversial barbed wire fence. The camp administrators defended this imposing barrier as a necessary quarantine measure - even as detained immigrants regularly defied it by crawling out of the camp and returning at will. Focusing on the conflicts and complications surrounding the medical quarantine, this book brings the history of this place and the remarkable experiences of the immigrants who went through it to life.
