Abstract

This book is the first study to an offer insight into non-armed, non-insurgent members of ethnic groups that are associated with well-known armed organizations. It analyzes the nature of the relationships between the "quiet" minorities and their "rebel" counterparts and assesses how these intra-ethnic differences and divisions affect the armed resistance movement, negotiation with state authorities, conflict resolution, and political reform. This field-based study of the Karen in Burma also provides theoretical and policy implications for other ethnically polarized countries.

Abstract

Over the course of the last two decades, novelist Karen Tei Yamashita has reshaped the Asian American literary imagination in profound ways.

Crafted at the intersection of intellectual history, ethnic studies, literary analysis, and critical theory, Ling's study goes beyond textual investigation to intervene in larger debates over postmodern representation, spatial materialism, historical form, and social and academic activism. Arguing that Yamashit

Abstract

How are trust and truth established in the emerging network society? How to the stories we exchange become part of the experiences we share? Are we in touch with each other, do we witness each other, when time and place are not shared? Witnessing is aquiring new dynamics. Networks are like mirrors to the self and fuel imagination. Love and passion drive engagement. However, engagement in merging realities challenges human dignities to the core. Dr. Caroline Nevejan, pioneer in digital culture since the 1980s, works together with 13 artists to explore today's footprint on the future. The artistic research explores new values for the (meta) design of participatory systems in which people accept responsibility for their words and deeds and negotiate trust and truth in a networked world.

Abstract

Dit boek legt de basis voor diepere analyses en interpretaties binnen de geschiedschrijving van de holocaust. Dankzij gender- en feministische benaderingen ontstond namelijk meer focus op individuele ervaringen. Het eerste gedeelte bevat o.m. essays over het aandeel van vrouwen binnen de geschiedschrijving en andere disciplines. Het hoofdstuk over de filosofen Hannah Arendt en Sarah Kofman bijvoorbeeld illustreert hoe deze twee joodse vrouwen erin slaagden zich een plaats te veroveren binnen de filosofische praktijk. Ook Simonne Weil komt aan bod, maar in een ander licht: haar negatieve houding ten aanzien van het joods- en vrouw-zijn. Wanneer men vervolgens het thema seksueel geweld aanraakt, wil men dit ook in zijn volledigheid bestudeerd zien: nazi’s maakten zich schuldig aan verkrachting, maar er zijn ook joodse mannen die zich hiertoe verlaagden. In het tweede gedeelte gaat men dan verder in op het gunstige effect van genderanalyse en worden ons hiervan enkele sprekende voorbeelden voorgeschoteld.

Abstract

For Karen Garthe, poetry is a Molotov cocktail. A master of radical invention, Garthe combines brio of conception with linguistic virtuosity, bringing language to new life from the inside at breakneck speed. The Banjo Clock, her second collection, cultivates a luxuriant sensibility even as it interrupts poetic continuity with cuts, ironies, sharp wit, and wild recklessness. In poems that consider poetry itself, Garthe writes about preparing the medium, the ink, "the motion of new utility." She then turns to America's psychic maladies and the need to rehabilitate our democracy, now floundering in the glare of TV's blue depressive light.
