März 2021 | ASIN: B08ZNY2FVV | 328 Seiten | EPUB (True) | 2.10 MB Die Leichtlebige (Julia). Das Mannweib (Agrippina die Ältere). Die Herrschsüchtige (Agrippina die Jüngere): Die krassen Vorurteile der Nachwelt über Mutter, Großmutter und Urgroßmutter von Nero haben sich gut gehalten. Dabei waren die Frauen der Kaiserdynastie selbstbewusste Rollenmodelle der Emanzipation vor zweitausend Jahren. Sie waren hochgebildet und steinreich, ritten über die Alpen und segelten auf dem Nil, empfingen Könige und kommandierten Soldaten. Dass Neros Mütter selbst Macht ausüben wollten, wurde ihnen zum Verhängnis: Sie wurden von den Männern ihrer Familie verbannt und ermordet, von der Geschichtsschreibung vergessen oder verdammt. Birgit Schönau schreibt ihre Biographien neu und beweist, dass der Kampf um weibliche Selbstbestimmung so alt ist wie Europa.  Neo-Confederacy: A Critical Introduction By Euan Hague, Heidi Beirich, Edward H. Sebesta 2008 | 354 Pages | ISBN: 0292718373 | PDF | 2 MB A century and a half after the conclusion of the Civil War, the legacy of the Confederate States of America continues to influence national politics in profound ways. Drawing on magazines such as "Southern Partisan" and publications from the secessionist organization League of the South, as well as DixieNet and additional newsletters and websites, "Neo-Confederacy" probes the veneer of this movement to reveal goals far more extensive than a mere celebration of ancestry.Incorporating groundbreaking essays on the Neo-Confederacy movement, this eye-opening work encompasses such topics as literature and music; the ethnic and cultural claims of white, Anglo-Celtic southerners; gender and sexuality; the origins and development of the movement and its tenets; and ultimately its nationalization into a far-reaching factor in reactionary conservative politics. The first book-length study of this powerful sociological phenomenon, "Neo-Confederacy" raises crucial questions about the mainstreaming of an ideology that, founded on notions of white supremacy, has made curiously strong inroads throughout the realms of sexist, homophobic, anti-immigrant, and often 'orthodox' Christian populations that would otherwise have no affiliation with the regionality or heritage traditionally associated with Confederate history.  Neither Enemies nor Friends: Latinos, Blacks, Afro-Latinos By Anani Dzidzienyo, Suzanne Oboler 2005 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 1403965676 | PDF | 2 MB In this collection, leading scholars focus on the contemporary meanings and diverse experiences of blackness in specific countries of the hemisphere, including the United States. The anthology introduces new perspectives on comparative forms of racialization in the Americas and presents its implications both for Latin American societies, and for Latinos' relations with African Americans in the U.S. Contributors address issues such as: Who are the Afro-Latin Americans? What historical contributions do they bring to their respective national polities? What happens to their national and socio-racial identities as a result of migration to the United States? What is the impact of the growing presence of Afro-Latin Americans within U.S. Latino populations, particularly with respect to the continuing dynamics of racialization in the United States today? And, more generally, what are the prospects and obstacles for rethinking alliances and coalition-building between and among racial(ized) minorities and other groups in contemporary U.S. society?  Neil LaBute: Stage and Cinema By Christopher Bigsby 2008 | 286 Pages | ISBN: 0521882540 | PDF | 2 MB Neil LaBute is one of the most exciting new talents in theatre and film to have emerged in the 1990s. Influenced and inspired by such writers as David Mamet, Edward Bond and Harold Pinter, he is equally at home writing for the screen as for the stage, and the list of films he has written and directed includes The Wicker Man (2006), Possession (2002) and In the Company of Men (1998). As a playwright, screenwriter, director, and author of short stories, he has staked out a distinctive, and disturbing, territory. In the first full-length study on LaBute, Christopher Bigsby examines his darkly funny work which explores the cruelties, self-concern and manipulative powers of individuals who inhabit a seemingly uncommunal world. Individual chapters are dedicated to particular works, and the book also includes an interview with LaBute, providing a fascinating insight into the life of this influential and often controversial figure.  Negotiating with Imperialism: The Unequal Treaties and the Culture of Japanese Diplomacy By Michael R. Auslin 2006 | 276 Pages | ISBN: 0674022270 | PDF | 2 MB Japan's modern international history began in 1858 with the signing of the "unequal" commercial treaty with the United States. Over the next fifteen years, Japanese diplomacy was reshaped to respond to the Western imperialist challenge. Negotiating with Imperialism is the first book to explain the emergence of modern Japan through this early period of treaty relations. Michael Auslin dispels the myth that the Tokugawa bakufu was diplomatically incompetent. Refusing to surrender to the West's power, bakufu diplomats employed negotiation as a weapon to defend Japan's interests. Tracing various visions of Japan's international identity, Auslin examines the evolution of the culture of Japanese diplomacy. Further, he demonstrates the limits of nineteenth-century imperialist power by examining the responses of British, French, and American diplomats. After replacing the Tokugawa in 1868, Meiji leaders initially utilized bakufu tactics. However, their 1872 failure to revise the treaties led them to focus on domestic reform as a way of maintaining independence and gaining equality with the West. In a compelling analysis of the interplay among assassinations, Western bombardment of Japanese cities, fertile cultural exchange, and intellectual discovery, Auslin offers a persuasive reading of the birth of modern Japan and its struggle to determine its future relations with the world. (20070401)  Sarah Semple, "Negotiating the North: Meeting-Places in the Middle Ages in the North Sea Zone " English | ISBN: 0367513862 | 2022 | 350 pages | AZW3 | 13 MB This book brings together the cumulative results of a three-year project focused on the assemblies and administrative systems of Scandinavia, Britain, and the North Atlantic islands in the 1st and 2nd millennia AD. In this volume we integrate a wide range of historical, cartographic, archaeological, field-based, and onomastic data pertaining to early medieval and medieval administrative practices, geographies, and places of assembly in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Scotland, and eastern England. This transnational perspective has enabled a new understanding of the development of power structures in early medieval northern Europe and the maturation of these systems in later centuries under royal control.  Negotiating Trade: Developing Countries in the WTO and NAFTA By John S. Odell 2006 | 310 Pages | ISBN: 0521679788 | PDF | 2 MB Negotiations between governments shape the world political economy and in turn the lives of people everywhere. Developing countries have become far more influential in talks in the World Trade Organization, including infamous stalemates in Seattle in 1999 and Canc?n in 2003, as well as bilateral and regional talks like those that created NAFTA. Yet social science does not understand well enough the process of negotiation, and least of all the roles of developing countries, in these situations. This book sheds light on three aspects of this otherwise opaque process: the strategies developing countries use; coalition formation; and how they learn and influence other participants' beliefs. This book will be valuable for many readers interested in negotiation, international political economy, trade, development, global governance, or international law. Developing country negotiators and those who train them will find practical insights on how to avoid pitfalls and negotiate better.  Negotiating Sovereignty and Human Rights By Noha Shawki, Michaelene Cox 2009 | 250 Pages | ISBN: 0754677192 | PDF | 3 MB Providing an overview of institutional developments and innovations in human rights politics, this volume discusses some of the most important current and emerging human rights issues. It takes stock of the initiatives, policy responses and innovations of past years to identify some of the challenges that will likely require bold and innovative solutions. The contributors focus on actors and/or issues that are outside the mainstream of international human rights politics; the chapters address issues that have only emerged as an important part of the international human rights agenda and generated much advocacy, diplomacy and negotiations since the end of the Cold War. These issues include: the International Criminal Court, the norm of Responsibility to Protect (R2P), the proliferation of small arms and light weapons and its human rights impact, truth commissions, and the rights of persons with disabilities. The contributions offer a direct challenge to entrenched notions of state sovereignty and represent a departure from established ways of policy making.  Alexander R. Pruss, Joshua L. Rasmussen, "Necessary Existence" English | ISBN: 019874689X | 2018 | 240 pages | MOBI | 1028 KB Necessary Existence breaks ground on one of the deepest questions anyone ever asks: why is there anything? The classic answer is in terms of a necessary foundation. Yet, why think that is the correct answer? Pruss and Rasmussen present an original defense of the hypothesis that there is a concrete necessary being capable of providing a foundation for the existence of things. They offer six main arguments, divided into six chapters. The first argument is an up-to-date presentation and assessment of a traditional causal-based argument from contingency. The next five arguments are new "possibility-based" arguments that make use of twentieth-century advances in modal logic. The arguments present possible pathways to an intriguing and far-reaching conclusion. The final chapter answers the most challenging objection to the existence of necessary things.
