The Accidental Superpower: The Next Generation of American Preeminence and the Coming Global Disorder (English Edition) PDF - ePUB

The Accidental Superpower: The Next Generation of American Preeminence and the Coming Global Disorder (English Edition) PDF - ePUB »In the bestselling tradition of The World Is Flat and The Next 100 Years, THE ACCIDENTAL SUPERPOWER will be a much discussed, contrarian, and eye-opening assessment of American power.

Near the end of the Second World War, the United States made a bold strategic gambit that rewired the international system. Empires were abolished and replaced by a global arrangement enforced by the U.S. Navy. With all the world's oceans safe for the first time in history, markets and resources were made available for everyone. Enemies became partners.

We think of this system as normal-it is not. We live in an artificial world on borrowed time.

In THE ACCIDENTAL SUPERPOWER, international strategist Peter Zeihan examines how the hard rules of geography are eroding the American commitment to free trade; how much of the planet is aging into a mass retirement that will enervate markets and capital supplies; and how, against all odds, it is the ever-ravenous American economy that-alone among the developed nations-is rapidly approaching energy independence. Combined, these factors are doing nothing less than overturning the global system and ushering in a new (dis)order.

For most, that is a disaster-in-waiting, but not for the Americans. The shale revolution allows Americans to sidestep an increasingly dangerous energy market. Only the United States boasts a youth population large enough to escape the sucking maw of global aging. Most important, geography will matter more than ever in a de-globalizing world, and America's geography is simply sublime.

On Native Ground: Memoirs and Impressions PDF - ePUB

On Native Ground: Memoirs and Impressions PDF - ePUB »

On Native Ground takes us from Jim Barnes's boyhood in rural southeastern Oklahoma during the Great Depression and World War II through his mature years as an internationally recognized poet. Of Choctaw and Welsh ancestry, Barnes is often identified as a Native American poet. He emphasizes his desire to be recognized for his art, not his blood. Yet he speaks eloquently here of his attachment to his "native ground," the Choctaw region in Oklahoma--for him "the land where memory dwells." This edition features a new postscript by the author.

Money Pitcher: Chief Bender And the Tragedy of Indian Assimilation PDF - ePUB

Money Pitcher: Chief Bender And the Tragedy of Indian Assimilation PDF - ePUB »

Charles Albert Bender was one of baseball's most talented pitchers. By the end of his major league career in 1925, he had accrued 212 wins and more than 1,700 strikeouts, and in 1953, he became the first American Indian elected to baseball's Hall of Fame. But as a high-profile Chippewa Indian in a bigoted society, Bender knew firsthand the trauma of racism. In Money Pitcher: Chief Bender and the Tragedy of Indian Assimilation, William C. Kashatus offers the first biography of this compelling and complex figure.

Bender's career in baseball began on the sandlots of Pennsylvania's Carlisle Indian Industrial School, where he distinguished himself as a hard-throwing pitcher. Soon, in 1903, Philadelphia Athletics manager Connie Mack signed Bender to his pitching staff, where he was a mainstay for more than a decade. Mack regarded Bender as his "money pitcher"--the hurler he relied on whenever he needed a critical victory. But with success came suffering. Spectators jeered Bender on the field and taunted him with war whoops. Newspapers ridiculed him in their sports pages. His own teammates derisively referred to him as "Chief," and Mack paid him less than half the salary of other star pitchers.

This constant disrespect became a major factor in one of the most controversial episodes in the history of baseball: the alleged corruption of the 1914 World Series. Despite being heavily favored going into the Series against the Boston Braves, the A's lost four straight games. Kashatus offers compelling evidence that Bender intentionally compromised his performance in the Series as retribution for the poor treatment he suffered.

Money Pitcher is not just another baseball book. It is a book about social justice and Native Americans' tragic pursuit of the white American Dream at the expense of their own identity. Having arrived in the major leagues only thirteen years after the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890, Bender experienced the disastrous effects of governmental assimilation policies designed to quash indigenous Indian culture. Yet his remarkable athleticism and dignified behavior disproved popular notions of Native American inferiority and opened the door to the majors for more than 120 Indians who played baseball during the first half of the twentieth century.

An African Athens: Rhetoric and the Shaping of Democracy in South Africa PDF - ePUB

An African Athens: Rhetoric and the Shaping of Democracy in South Africa PDF - ePUB »An African Athens offers an analysis of a new ecology of rhetoric--the reshaping of a nation into a democracy through rhetorical means. Author Philippe-Joseph Salazar provides a general view of issues as they have taken shape in the apartheid and post-apartheid South African experience, presenting the country as a remarkable stage for playing out the great themes of public deliberation and the rise of postmodern rhetorical democracy. Salazar's intimate vantage point focuses on the striking case of a democracy won at the negotiating table and also won every day in public deliberation.

This volume presents a full-scale rhetorical analysis of a democratic transformation in post-Cold War era, and provides a study of the demise of apartheid and post-apartheid from the standpoint of political and public rhetoric and communication. In doing so, it serves as a template for similar enquiries in the rhetorical study of emerging democracies.

Intended for readers engaged in the study of political and public rhetoric with an interest in how democracy takes shape, An African Athens highlights South Africa as a test case for global democracy, for rhetoric, and for the relevance of rhetoric studies in a postmodern democracy.

Jelle Zijlstra, A Central Banker's View: Selected Speeches and Articles PDF - ePUB

Jelle Zijlstra, A Central Banker's View: Selected Speeches and Articles PDF - ePUB »On 1 May 1967 Dr. J elle Zijlstra was appointed President of De Nederlandsche Bank, after an already eventful career. Following a brief spell as Professor of Economics at the Free University of Amsterdam, he began a lengthy period of ministerial service in 1952. During his cabinet years, he devised a concept which became known in the Netherlands as the' Zijl- stra norm', and which was aImed at keeping the Government's financial deficit in check. He concluded his active political career .as prime minister in 1966-1967. Dr. Zijlstra's career as a politician and central banker covered a period of nearly 30 years during which the economic scene in the N ether- lands and in the world underwent wide cyclical ups and downs and impor- tant changes of a more long-lasting nature. Successful economic recovery after the Second World War was followed by a period of rapid and rela- tively stable economic growth. However, as early as the 1960s the condi- tions for the maintenance of equilibrated expansion became less secure. These conditions were further impaired in the 1970s partly as a result of important shocks, such as the oil crises.

Les sept nouvelles de ce recueil se deroulent dans un climat tres proche du fantastique.
David Mourao-Ferreira est maitre dans l'art de suggerer, d'immobiliser le lecteur entre realite et fantasme.

Qu'il s'agisse du Veuf qui, dans une villa au bord de la mer, la nuit de Noel, raconte a son amie d'enfance la disparition d'une maitresse adoree dont on ne sait si elle a jamais existe, ou Maintenant que nous nous sommes retrouves, monologue d'une troublante ambiguite qu'une tres belle femme offre a un homme qu'elle semble aimer, ou encore Demain nous recommencerons, histoire racontee et jour apres jour renouvelee par un couple qui tente de croire en l'eternite de son amour, la Mort est toujours au rendez-vous.

Les Soleils masques et le roulement ininterrompu des vagues immergent ces recits dans une lumiere sourde et rendent palpable le malaise qui etreint l'ame de tous les amants.

Peacekeeping Fiascoes of the 1990's: Causes, Solutions, and U.S. Interests PDF - ePUB

Peacekeeping Fiascoes of the 1990's: Causes, Solutions, and U.S. Interests PDF - ePUB »

Peacekeeping is a useful tool to manage international conflict and maintain truces, but it will only work in a narrow range of circumstances. Peacekeepers can order punitive airstrikes, depose elected leaders, destroy infrastructure, and enforce peace accords not drafted by the warring parties. They have overstepped their bounds, and peacekeeping is now often a euphemism for any multilateral military action. A CIA analyst who worked closely with Reagan, Bush, and Clinton administration officials on UN issues, Fleitz examines how peacekeeping works, the rash of peacekeeping failures since 1993, and whether peacekeeping can still play a role in U.S. foreign policy. It is a unique realist assessment destined to become the guide to this very important subject for U.S. policymakers, politicians, and students of international relations.

UN peacekeeping disasters in the 1990s occurred because world leaders failed to recognize the rules and precedents that allowed traditional peacekeeping to succeed during the Cold War. Although failed peacekeeping operations damaged the peacekeeping concept, it can still serve as a viable tool to promote international security and promote American interests abroad if used in the right circumstances. Carefully researched and supported by over two dozen maps, charts, and photos, Fleitz boldly challenges dozens of assumptions of the foreign policy establishment about the nature of the Cold War, post-Cold War peacekeeping, and 1990s peacekeeping deployments.

Norms of Nature - Naturalism & the Nature of Functions PDF - ePUB

Norms of Nature - Naturalism & the Nature of Functions PDF - ePUB »

The components of living systems strike us as functional-as for the sake of certain ends--and as endowed with specific norms of performance. The mammalian eye, for example, has the function of perceiving and processing light, and possession of this property tempts us to claim that token eyes are supposed to perceive and process light. That is, we tend to evaluate the performance of token eyes against the norm described in the attributed functional property. Hence the norms of nature.

What, then, are the norms of nature? Whence do they arise? Out of what natural properties or relations are they constituted? In Norms of Nature, Paul Sheldon Davies argues against the prevailing view that natural norms are constituted out of some form of historical success--usually success in natural selection. He defends the view that functions are nothing more than effects that contribute to the exercise of some more general systemic capacity. Natural functions exist insofar as the components of natural systems contribute to the exercise of systemic capacities. This is so irrespective of the system's history. Even if the mammalian eye had never been selected for, it would have the function of perceiving and processing light, because those are the effects that contribute to the exercise of the visual system. The systemic approach to conceptualizing natural norms, claims Davies, is superior to the historical approach in several important ways. Especially significant is that it helps us understand how the attribution of functions within the life sciences coheres with the methods and ontology of the natural sciences generally.

His great-grandmother would tell him stories of her childhood in the ancient Romani language; the places her family stopped and worked, the ways they lived, the superstitions and lores of their people. But his own experience of life on the road was limited to Ford Transit journeys from West Sussex to Hampshire to sell flowers.

In a bid to better understand his Gypsy heritage, the history of the Britain's Romanies and the rhythms of their life today, Damian sets out on a journey to discover the atchin tans, or stopping places - the old encampment sites known only to Travellers. Through winter frosts and summer dawns, from horse fairs to Gypsy churches, neon-lit lay-bys to fern-covered banks, Damian lives on the road, somewhere between the romanticised Gypsies of old, and their much-maligned descendants of today.

In this powerful and soulful debut, Damian le Bas brings the places, characters and stories of his to bold and vigorous life.

En la falda del Gran Volcán, la cima de todo un mundo imaginario, las altas montañas se elevan desordenadas formando el Macizo de las Estatuas.

Introduction a Origene suivie d'une Anthologie PDF - ePUB

Introduction a Origene suivie d'une Anthologie PDF - ePUB »Sans Origene, il n'y aurait pas de theologie. Tout commence avec lui parce que, grace a lui, la reflexion penetre dans le christianisme. La grande innovation apportee par Origene est d'avoir structure la pensee theologique en un systeme logique et coherent. A partir de la foi transmise dans l'Eglise, le theologien pouvait
aborder les grands problemes de l'existence humaine et y apporter des elements de reponse en lien avec une vaste vision du monde. Son influence fut decisive, aussi bien dans la theologie grecque que latine. Elle marqua aussi la dogmatique, l'exegese et la spiritualite. Dans le discours de Dieu, il apporta de nouvelles formules et de nouvelles images ; l'etude de la
Bible devint grace a lui une veritable science. Ses commentaires et ses homelies furent lus, recopies et abondamment utilises, meme par ses detracteurs, Jerome, Ambroise de Milan,
Augustin, ces grands exegetes de l'Antiquite qui reprirent de nombreuses idees de leur lointain predecesseur. La vie mystique elle-meme n'echappa pas a sa sagacite. Le commentaire et les homelies sur le Cantique des cantiques sont l'?uvre d'un homme muri par la reflexion et par l'epreuve. Et pourtant, cet auteur fecond est inconnu du grand public. Ce qui explique cette meconnaissance, c'est certainement le soupcon d'heresie qui accable le maitre d'Alexandrie. Il est important de reprendre le dossier, de developper ses idees et de montrer ses erreurs. Alors sans doute seront rendus a la lecture et a l'etude les meilleurs passages de sa pensee
chretienne.

Factory-Constructed Housing Developments: Planning, Design, and Construction PDF - ePUB

Factory-Constructed Housing Developments: Planning, Design, and Construction PDF - ePUB »An attractive, lower-cost alternative to site-built homes, factory-constructed housing is becoming increasingly popular. New, more sophisticated methods of construction and strict federal, state, and local codes have resulted in safer, more attractive, and more affordable homes.
Written by a specialist with over 20 years of experience in the field, Factory-Constructed Housing Developments: Planning, Design, and Construction fills the gaps in existing literature on the subject. Although some information on the design of small subdivisions and manufactured home communities can be found scattered throughout various government documents, until now there has been no single guide to the creation of new developments. This reference assembles and cites the existing literature, and adds to it useful information from the author's two decades of practical field experience.
This one-stop reference explains the planning, development, and construction processes for factory-constructed housing, including everything from the roles of municipal boards, to roads and development configurations, to water and sewerage. The book also considers factors unique to manufactured home communities and modular home subdivisions. No other single volume contains the information in this book.

The Breast Reconstruction Guidebook: Issues and Answers from Research to Recovery PDF - ePUB »

Since 2002, The Breast Reconstruction Guidebook has been the best resource on this topic for women who have had a mastectomy. Equal parts science and support, it is filled with stories that illustrate the emotional and physical components of breast reconstruction. Kathy Steligo, a gifted writer and breast cancer survivor who has twice had breast reconstruction, compassionately answers women's questions about how they will respond emotionally and physically to losing a breast, whether to treat or prevent breast cancer. Steligo provides detailed descriptions of the various surgical options for mastectomy and reconstruction, as well as information on choosing and paying for a surgeon, preparing for and recovering from surgery, and handling the many practical details and difficult decisions women will face along the way. A road map of the mastectomy and reconstruction journey, this book gives women the comprehensive, unbiased details they need to make their own informed decisions about whether reconstruction--and which reconstructive option--is right for them.

Readers learn how breasts can be recreated using implants or their own tissue and the advantages and disadvantages of each option. Surgery timelines, recovery, and potential problems (and how they can be resolved) are also explained. A new foreword by Dr. Minas Chrysopoulo, MD, of the PRMA Plastic Surgery Center for Advanced Breast Reconstruction, highlights the book's strengths and offers a medical perspective on breast cancer and reconstructive surgery.

Infamies of the Soul and Their Treatments PDF - ePUB

Infamies of the Soul and Their Treatments PDF - ePUB »Infamies of the soul (?Uyub al-nafs) is one of Islam's earliest comprehensive theories for the purification of the soul. In this short guide, the hadith narrator, Shafi?i legist, and historian of the early sufis, Imam Abu ?Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami, presents sixty-nine wicked traits and habits of the soul, including anger, laziness, negligence, self-pity, envy, avarice, lying, and pride. Each infamy is described with its common causes and treatments, usually with relevant Prophetic narrations and statements from early Muslim sages.

Richesse de la nature et pauvrete des nations: La malediction de la rente miniere et petroliere en Afrique PDF - ePUB &raquo;Des 2050, l’Afrique comptera 2,5 milliards d’hommes, soit 200 millions de plus que toute l’Asie du sud, alors que la population de la Chine aura plafonne a 1,3 milliards et celle de l’ensemble Europe-Amerique du nord autour de 1 milliard. En 2100, les Africains seront 4,5 milliards sur 11 milliards d’hommes. Le defi principal de ce siecle est donc l’emergence soutenable de l’Afrique : revolution verte, industrialisation, urbanisation (900 millions d’urbains supplementaires en Afrique sub-saharienne d’ici 2050). Un des obstacles majeurs a cette emergence soutenable est qu’un grand nombre d’Etats africains sont frappes de la << malediction des rentes minieres et petrolieres >> : partage inequitable des rentes entre Etats et operateurs, corruption et gaspillage des fonds publics, stagnation des secteurs non rentiers, urbanisation non maitrisee et bien souvent, guerre civile… Cet essai propose une analyse approfondie de la situation et des moyens d’y remedier. Il s’organise en trois parties. La premiere, theorique, est une analyse economique du partage et de l’usage des rentes minieres et petrolieres, des raisons pour lesquelles les prix et les rentes fluctuent et des effets de ces fluctuations.

La deuxieme partie, empirique, presente et commente les nombreuses etudes econometriques qui ont tente de verifier et de quantifier les mecanismes de la malediction. Elle propose une etude originale des effets des rentes sur l’agriculture et l’urbanisation en Afrique. La troisieme partie est une etude du cas de onze pays africains, de leur histoire miniere et/ou petroliere, du partage et de l’usage de la rente en leur sein.
