Chienne de Guerre PDF By:Anne Nivat Published on 2009-02-23 by PublicAffairs Two years ago, when she was thirty years old, Anne Nivat decided to see first-hand what war was all about. Russia had just launched its second brutal campaign against Chechnya. And though the Russians strictly forbade Westerners from covering the war, the aspiring French journalist decided she would go. There are two very real dangers in Chechnya: being arrested by the Russians and being kidnapped by the Chechens. Nivat strapped her satellite phone to her belly, disguised herself in the garb of a Chechen peasant, and sneaked across the border. She found a young guide, Islam, to lead her illegally through the war zone. For six months they followed the war, travelling with underground rebels and sleeping with Chechen families or in abandoned buildings. Anne trembled through air raids; walked through abandoned killing fields; and helped in the halls of bloody hospitals. She interviewed rebel leaders, government o...

A Wall in Palestine PDF By:René Backmann Published on 2010-02-02 by Picador The West Bank Barrier is expected to be completed in 2010. Declared illegal by the United Nations International Court of Justice, this network of concrete walls, trenches, and barbed-wire fences could permanently redraw one of the most disputed property lines in the Middle East--the Green Line that separates Israel and the West Bank. To Israel the |security fence| is intended to keep Palestinian terrorists from entering its territory. But to Palestinians the |apartheid wall| that sliced through orchards and houses, and cuts off family members from one another, is a land grab. In this comprehensive book, Backmann not only addresses the barrier's impact on ordinary citizens, but how it will shape the future of the Middle East. Though it promises security to an Israeli population weary of terrorism, it also is responsible for the widespread destruction of Palestinian homes and farmland; with its Byzantine chec...

Thebes in the Fifth Century (Routledge Revivals) PDF By:Nancy Demand Published on 2014-04-08 by Routledge In the fifth century BC Thebes, faced with the challenges presented by defeat and disgrace in the Persian Wars – it had sided with the invaders – succeeded not only in regaining its former prominence, but also in laying the groundwork for its hegemony of Greece in the early part of the fourth century. In Thebes in the Fifth Century, first published in 1982, Nancy Demand examines the political and military history of this renowned city, as well as a number of other aspects of Theban culture and society: its physical layout, religious cults, poetry and music, arts, crafts and philosophy. Other topics of special interest include a chapter on Pythagoreanism in Thebes, an appendix on the evidence for the participation of women in Pythagoreanism, and an investigation, extending throughout the book, of the role of women in Theban society.

Interculturalism PDF By:Gerard Bouchard Published on 2015-02-05 by University of Toronto Press Accommodating ethnic diversity is a major challenge for all democratic nations and a topic that has attracted a great deal of attention in the last few decades. Within Quebec, a new approach has emerged that seeks a balance between the needs of minorities and those of the majority. In Interculturalism, sociologist and historian Gérard Bouchard presents his vision of interculturalism as a model for the management of diversity. A pluralist approach which recognizes the existence of a cultural majority whose rights must also be acknowledged, interculturalism constitutes an important alternative to multiculturalism both in Canada and internationally. Written by one of Quebec’s leading public intellectuals and the co-chair of the Bouchard-Taylor Commission on reasonable accommodation, Interculturalism is the first clear and comprehensive statement in English of an approach being discussed around t...

Jihad Academy PDF By:Nicolas Hénin Published on 2015-09-30 by Bloomsbury Publishing When you keep repeating that the worst is about to happen, it finally does. The threat of terrorism has caught up with us. By invading Iraq in 2003 and not intervening in Syria since 2011, we have helped fuel radicalization. And we continue to fuel it, by making diplomatic compromises with dictators, by refusing to heed the suffering of populations, and by failing to invent counter-speech. What is the responsibility of our societies in the creation of these new jihadists? How are they molded? How have we played the Islamic State's game and spread its propaganda, allowing it to invade our neighborhoods and enlist more and more recruits ready to fight for a distorted fantasy of Islam? Nicolas Hénin presents the case against the West, showing how its mistakes and inaction have contributed to the disaster. He also advances possible strategies to repair what can still be repaired.

On the history of film style PDF By:David Bordwell Published on 1997 by Harvard Univ Pr The study of cinematic style has profoundly shaped our attitude toward movies. Style assigns films to a tradition, distinguishes a classic, and signals the arrival of a pathbreaking innovation. David Bordwell now shows how film scholars have attempted to explain stylistic continuity and change across the history of cinema. Bordwell scrutinizes the theories of style launched by AndrÉ Bazin, NoĖl Burch, and other film historians. In the process he celebrates a century of cinema, integrating discussions of film classics such as The Birth of a Nation and Citizen Kane with analyses of more current box-office successes such as Jaws and The Hunt for Red October. Examining the contributions of both noted and neglected directors, he considers the earliest filmmaking, the accomplishments of the silent era, the development of Hollywood, and the strides taken by European and Asian cinema in recent years. On the...

Pire que la guerre PDF By:Daniel Jonah Goldhagen Published on 2012-10-17 by Fayard Goldhagen nous entraîne ici dans les profondeurs les plus abominables de l'histoire humaine, du génocide arménien au massacre des tutsis, en passant par les massacres d'Afrique centrale, la solution finale, la guerre du Cambodge, toutes les violences qui ont scandé le XXe siècle. L'auteur pose un regard anthropologique sur la mise en oeuvre des ces massacres : quel modèle est à chaque fois utilisé, quels sont les fondements idéologiques de ces attaques |éliminationnistes|, comment les responsables criminels élaborent et diffusent un discours de diabolisation de l'autre et de justification de la violence. Il dénonce enfin les défaillances du système international, incapable de poser une définition utile des massacres, pour des raisons de politique de puissance, au mépris de l’esprit des droits de l’homme. Comme dans son précédent ouvrage, Goldhagen pose la question centrale du génocide, qu...
