Abstract

Tahiti has a rich history of oral tradition. Early visitors to the island transcribed recitations of myth, battle address, and land description. Until now their poetic organization has remained unexplored. From a computationally assisted analysis, this book describes early use of meter and parallelism and speculates on manner of composition. It sheds light on a poetic style unanticipated for Polynesia and remarkable among world poetries.

Abstract

Quelle serait la part d'Israël dans l'accomplissement du récit européen ? Et, en écho, la part d'Europe dans l'achèvement d'Israël ? Ce double questionnement sert de trame au récit des deux auteurs sur l'inachèvement de l'Europe comme sur l'inachèvement d'Israël. Mais peut-on relier les deux ? Tout en reconnaissant la spécificité absolue des expériences d'Israël et de l'Europe, peut-on y trouver des constantes de l'histoire humaine, constantes que l'on pourrait peut-être déchiffrer et relier entre elles ? Non pas dans l'espoir de faire émerger un récit commun, mais au moins de voir si les récits respectifs se font écho et permettent de tisser du neuf.

Abstract

"Beyond the drama and fanfare, what do social movements actually achieve? People protest to try to change the world, because they think they can help change the world, and sometimes they do. But not by themselves, and generally not just how and when they want. How Social Movements (Sometimes) Matter explains how groups of ordinary individuals can affect the world, what makes it possible when it works, and why it sometimes doesn’t go to plan. Starting with the United States, but drawing examples from around the world, and digging into previous scholarship on social movements, David S. Meyer looks at the origins of social movements, how they contrast with revolutionary campaigns, and assesses the periodic influence of activists on politics, policy, culture, and the way people live their lives. He concludes by stressing the narratives about political change that activists construct and the power that lies in these stories.With sharp insight and a wealth of intriguing cases, this book offers a fuller understanding of the politics and potential payoffs of protest politics."--

Abstract

Hong Kong has remained the global metropolis for Asia since its founding in the 1840s following the Opium Wars between Britain and China. David Meyer traces its vibrant history from the arrival of the foreign trading firms, when it was established as one of the leading Asian business centres, to its celebrated handover to China in 1997. Throughout this period, Hong Kong has been prominent as a pivotal meeting place of the Chinese and foreign social networks of capital and as such has been China's window on to the world economy, dominating other financial centers such as Singapore and Tokyo. Looking into the future, the author presents an optimistic view of Hong Kong in the twenty-first century, challenging those who predict its decline under Chinese rule. This accessible and broad-ranging look at the story of Hong Kong's success will interest anyone concerned with its past, present and future.
