Population and Development: A Critical Introduction

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Furedi, Frank, PUBLISHER: St. Martin's Press, Many experts believe that population growth is the greatest threat facing humanity. This concise and provocative book discusses both sides of this debate examining the way the arguments have changed and evolved and questioning the assumptions of the main protagonists. Frank Furedi argues that the Western preoccupation with population growth reveals more about the internal concerns of Western societies than the socio-economic development of the South. Examining a broad range of key debates and controversies -- the population bomb in Asia, the culture of a distinct regime of African fertility, the role of education in stabilizing population growth in Kerala -- he contends that the marginalization of the goal of development is the outcome of a narrow concern with population policies.

Songs of Zion: The African Methodist Episcopal Church in the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Campbell, James T., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Songs of Zion focuses on the African Methodist Episcopal Church, black America's oldest and largest independent church. Campbell charts the origins and evolution of African American independent churches, arguing that the very act of becoming Christian forced black Americans to reflect on their relationship to their ancestral continent. The book then turns to South Africa, examining the AME Church's entrance and evolution in a series of specific African contexts. The final third of the book is devoted to what Campbell calls "middle passages," to the careers of men and women who moved between South Africa and the United States in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Throughout the book, Campbell focuses on the comparisons that Africans and African Americans themselves drew between their situations, arguing that the transatlantic encounter enabled both groups to understand and act upon their worlds in new ways.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dobie of Crummock, James / Dobie, John Shedden, PUBLISHER: Zeticula, By the early Seventeeth Century, Timothy Pont had personally surveyed, with astonishing accuracy, all the counties and isles of Scotland, and made notes to support his cartography.

Compiled about the year , by Mr Timothy Pont, edited by J. Fullarton, Glasgow: Maitland Club, ).

The Last Cannibals: A South American Oral History

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Basso, Ellen B., PUBLISHER: University of Texas Press, The Kalapalo are a Carib-speaking group of Brazilian Indians who live in the Alto (Upper) Xingu region around the headwaters of the Xingu River, a tributary of the Amazon. In this major discourse-centered study of their culture, Ellen Basso transcribes and analyzes nine traditional Kalapalo stories to offer important insights into Kalapalo historical knowledge and the performance of historical narratives within their nonliterate society. The stories focus on the biographies of exceptionally powerful warrior bowmen. Basso uses these stories to explore how the Kalapalo remember and understand their history and what specific linguistic, psychological, and ideological materials they employ to construct their narratives. This inquiry represents the first comprehensive study of Amazonian Indian ethnohistory using indigenous oral documents and the first attempt to understand, though indigenous discourse, the emergence of Upper Xingu society. It will be important reading in anthropology, linguistics, and South American studies.

Ghosts of the Confederacy: Defeat, the Lost Cause, and the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Foster, Gaines M., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, After Lee and Grant met at Appomatox Court House in to sign the document ending the long and bloody Civil War, the South at last had to face defeat as the dream of a Confederate nation melted into the Lost Cause. Through an examination of memoirs, personal papers, and postwar Confederate rituals such as memorial day observances, monument unveilings, and veterans' reunions, Ghosts of the Confederacy probes into how white southerners adjusted to and interpreted their defeat and explores the cultural implications of a central event in American history. Foster argues that, contrary to southern folklore, southerners actually accepted their loss, rapidly embraced both reunion and a New South, and helped to foster sectional reconciliation and an emerging social order. He traces southerners' fascination with the Lost Cause--showing that it was rooted as much in social tensions resulting from rapid change as it was in the legacy of defeat--and demonstrates that the public celebration of the war helped to make the South a deferential and conservative society. Although the ghosts of the Confederacy still haunted the New South, Foster concludes that they did little to shape behavior in it--white southerners, in celebrating the war, ultimately trivialized its memory, reduced its cultural power, and failed to derive any special wisdom from defeat.

Varieties of Southern History: New Essays on a Region and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Salmond, John A. / Clayton, Bruce / Salmond, John, PUBLISHER: Praeger, This is a unique collection of essays by some of the world's leading historians of the South, together with work by younger scholars. All contributors, however, are working at the cutting edge of their particular methodological approaches. The book, for example, includes both an essay by Pulitzer Prize winner Rhys Isaac, and one by Rutgers University graduate student Beth Hale. Yet, both have a common concern to explore the reaches of the Southern past through the dimension of ethnography. The essays in the book are grouped according to theme. The largest section, the social sciences and Southern history, includes essays drawing heavily on the insights of anthropology of ethnography and of statistical analysis. Each essay in the second section is designed to illustrate how life history can be used to illuminate much larger histoical themes and processes. The essays in the last section on labor in the "new" South all illustrate, among other things, the importance of drawing on the insights of historians of women in order to redress the masculinist presuppositons of labor historians. All the essays in the book, in fact, reflect current concerns with gender and race in the re-interpretation of the Southern past.
