Roots in the African Dust: Sustaining the Sub-Saharan Drylands

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The traditional image of contemporary Africa is of a continent dogged by poverty, drought, degradation and famine. This study, drawing on the best work of the past decade and based on researched case studies from East and West Africa, rejects the notionof runaway desertification, driven by population growth and inappropriate land use. It suggests a more optimistic model of sustainable land use and an appropriate set of policy priorities to support dryland peoples in their efforts to sustain land and livelihoods. [detailed...]

Roots of Reform: Farmers, Workers, and the American State, 1877-1917 (American Politics &, Political Economy (Paperback))

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Roots of Reform offers a sweeping revision of our understanding of the rise of the regulatory state in the late nineteenth century. Sanders argues that politically mobilized farmers were the driving force behind most of the legislation that increased national control over private economic power. She demonstrates that farmers from the South, Midwest, and West reached out to the urban laborers who shared their class position and their principal antagonist--northeastern monopolistic industrial and financial capital--despite weak electoral support from organized labor. Based on new evidence from legislative records and other sources, Sanders shows that this tenuous alliance of `producers versus plutocrats` shaped early regulatory legislation, remained powerful through the populist and progressive eras, and developed a characteristic method of democratic state expansion with continued relevance for subsequent reform movements. Roots of Reform is essential… [detailed...]

Rosa Luxemburg Reader

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Among the major Marxist thinkers of the Russian Revolution era, Rosa Luxemburg stands out as one who speaks to our own time. Her legacy grows in relevance as the global character of the capitalist market becomes more apparent and the critique of bureaucratic power is more widely accepted within the movement for human liberation. The Rosa Luxemburg Reader is the definitive one-volume collection of Luxemburg`s writings in English translation. Unlike previous publications of her work from the early 1970s, this volume includes substantial extracts from her major economic writings?above all, The Accumulation of Capital (1913)?and from her political writings, including Reform or Revolution (1898), the Junius Pamphlet (1916), and The Russian Revolution (1918). The Reader also includes a number of important texts that have never before been published in English translation, including substantial extracts from her Introduction to Political Economy (1916), and a… [detailed...]

Rosa Luxemburg

2008 y.
Publisher: Haus Publishing
Description: In a world in which capitalism is presented as all that exists, the writer, speaker and agitator Rosa Luxemburg - murdered in Berlin by an unholy alliance of Right and Left in 1919 - is the last heroine of revolutionary socialism. Did Luxemburg, a contemporary of Lenin and Trotsky, offer a genuine alternative, a libertarian and democratic socialism that might have saved 20th century Europe from the scourges of depression, dictatorship and war? Or was she the lifelong victim of an illusion, a misreading of history that led her inexorably to a bloody death? This biography takes a fresh view, re-examining Luxemburg`s tempestuous career and complex personal life, posing new questions about her politics and her dream of socialism. Формат: 13 см х 20 см.

Rosa Ponselle : A Centenary Biography (Opera Biography Series, No. 9)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comThe centennial of the great American soprano`s birth brings a gossipy yet affectionate biography. Comments by associates paint Rosa Ponselle as a classic diva, capricious in business dealings (most notably when she abruptly retired in 1937), capable of responding with fury to perceived disloyalty, bitingly honest in her assessment of her own and others` work. Reprints of interviews with Ponselle reveal her enormous charm and offer an intimate glimpse of the creative process employed to interpret Aida , Norma , and other signature roles. A performance chronology, discography, and photographic portfolio round out this delicious volume.Book DescriptionPublished in celebration of the 100th anniversary of her birth, this book presents a candid portrait of Ponselle, `the Caruso in petticoats,` contrasting the singer`s own words, from interviews with the author and others, with the recollections of friends, family members and colleagues.

Rosalie Bertell: Scientist, Eco-Feminist, Visionary (Women Who Rock)

Description: Book DescriptionThis engaging book looks at Rosalie Bertell from a feminist, environmental activist perspective. It is a lovely portrait of one woman?s commitment to sustaining a healthy world environment. Born in 1929 in Buffalo, New York, of a Canadian mother and an American father, Bertell entered the religious order of the Grey Nuns, completed a doctorate in biometrics and became an impassioned peace activist. This remarkable, contemporary, Canadian woman has been a lifelong fighter for environmental and human health, and for women to participate in decision-making about war, peace, and the environment. In the 1970s, Dr. Bertell played a major role in opposing the construction of nuclear reactors, and in drawing attention to the health damages suffered by uranium miners and by the atomic veterans of U.S. nuclear bombing and testing.

Description: For over 30 years Rosalind Solomon has been producing emotional imagery that pulls the viewer into a world of sun and shadow where past and present intersect. As she explains of the light and shadow here, A¬I made my first pictures in Poland in 1988 during a time of political change, and returned there in 2003 in an era of increasing violence and inhumanity worldwide.A® All of the images in Polish Shadow are of individuals, their relationships and environments, and each observes and comments on Poland and the larger world: some evoke the darkness of an earlier era and the ghosts of ethnic violence, while others capture a moment in the forward-marching life of modern Europe. As one critic has put it, A¬Solomon embraces her subjects with unusual warmth--a combination of candor, curiosity and concern,A® and that combination of factors can make her photographs as gut-wrenching as they are technically excellent.

Description: `Since they shot her at point-blank range while she was being kissed, she confused the pain of love with that of death.` Rosario Tijeras is the violent, violated character at the center of Jorge Franco Ramos` delicately balanced novel, set in self-destructing 1980s Medellin. Her very name-evoking the rosary and scissors-bespeaks her conflict as a woman who becomes a contract killer to insulate herself from the random violence of the streets (in a country where it is common practice among her colleagues to boil bullets in holy water before using them). Then she is shot, gravely wounded, and the circle of contradiction is closed. From the corridors of the hospital where Rosario is fighting for her life, Antonio, the narrator, waits to learn if she will recover. We join him in his nighttime vigil. Piece by piece, as he moves through layers of recollection and speculation, we reconstruct the friendship between the two, the story of her many lovers, and her life as a hitwoman. … [detailed...]
