Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Como a Europa subdesenvolveu a África, do historiador e líder teórico do pan-africanismo Walter Rodney, detalha o impacto da escravidão e do colonialismo na história da África. Escrita em 1972 e publicada agora pela primeira vez em língua portuguesa, a obra, considerada uma obra-prima da economia política, argumenta que o inabalável "subdesenvolvimento" africano não é um fenômeno natural, e sim um produto da exploração imperial do continente, prática que continua até hoje. Um dos principais argumentos ao longo do livro é o de que a África desenvolveu a Europa na mesma proporção em que a Europa deliberadamente subdesenvolveu o continente africano. Rodney detalha as formas de exploração econômica de diversos povos e regiões, primeiro como fornecedores de mão de obra escravizada e, depois, como mão de obra assalariada extremamente subvalorizada. Além disso, aborda como se deu a intervenção direta do modo de produção capitalista nas práticas econômicas típicas de cada povo e região, na divisão sexual do trabalho tradicional dos povos africanos e na educação formal durante o colonialismo. "Se as contribuições intelectuais e militantes de Rodney desvelavam o que havia de mais necessário naquele momento histórico específico – ele foi assassinado porque acreditava na possibilidade de uma transformação política radical, inclusive na Guiana, sua terra natal –, as ideias dele são ainda mais valiosas hoje, momento em que o capitalismo impôs tão vigorosamente sua permanência e em que as forças opositoras existentes e organizadas têm sido praticamente eliminadas. As pessoas que, entre nós, recusam-se a admitir que o capitalismo global representa o melhor futuro para o planeta e que a África e o anteriormente denominado Terceiro Mundo estão destinados a permanecer para sempre assentados na pobreza do "subdesenvolvimento" estão diante desta questão crucial: como encorajar críticas radicais ao capitalismo – tão essenciais às lutas contra o racismo – e, ao mesmo tempo, avançar no reconhecimento de que não podemos vislumbrar o seu desmantelamento enquanto as estruturas racistas se mantiverem intactas? Nesse sentido, cabe a nós seguir, desenvolver e aprofundar o legado de Walter Rodney", escreve Angela Davis na apresentação da obra.
Book Synopsis African Languages, Literatures, and Postcolonial Modernity by : Samba Camara
Download or read book African Languages, Literatures, and Postcolonial Modernity written by Samba Camara and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-26 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a fresh look into the “languages of postcolonial modernity” in Africa and, to a lesser degree, its diaspora. It foregrounds the notion of postcolonial modernity in reference to modernization as experienced in the postcolony and its contemporary legacies, and investigates how African languages and literatures, both as means of communication and as instruments of cultural agency, have embodied and mediated modernity. Each chapter grapples with the literary or linguistic dimensions of postcolonial modernity as portrayed in African novels, film, poetry or popular music or as embodied in African and Afro-diasporic languages and dialects. The chapters also reveal how literature and language, respectively, document and embody discourses, phenomena, histories, ideologies, and beliefs that resulted from the legacies of colonialism.

Book Synopsis Drugs and Social Context by : Telmo Mota Ronzani
Download or read book Drugs and Social Context written by Telmo Mota Ronzani and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book goes beyond the traditional approaches to drug use and discusses the issue from a societal perspective, integrating contributions from different disciplines such as psychology, public health, anthropology, law, public policies and sociology to address specifically the social aspects of the phenomenon. Given its complexity, drug use demands a multidisciplinary approach from many different perspectives, but despite the vast literature about the topic, the majority of the books are restricted either to a purely medical perspective (focused mainly on treatment techniques) or to a criminological perspective (focused mainly on drug trafficking and organized crime). The social approach adopted in this volume challenges this dichotomy and analyzes both the social contexts to which drug use is related and the social and political consequences of the attitudes and policies adopted by governments and other social groups towards drug users, addressing topics such as: Drugs and poverty Drugs and gender Drugs and race Drugs and territory Stigmatization of drug use Prohibitionism Given its broad and innovative approach, Drugs and Social Context - Social Perspectives on the Use of Alcohol and Other Drugs will be of interest for researchers, clinicians and other health professionals, since the study of the social aspects of drug use is central to everyone who deals with the issue.

Download or read book How Europe Underdeveloped Africa written by Walter Rodney and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic work of political, economic, and historical analysis, powerfully introduced by Angela Davis In his short life, the Guyanese intellectual Walter Rodney emerged as one of the leading thinkers and activists of the anticolonial revolution, leading movements in North America, South America, the African continent, and the Caribbean. In each locale, Rodney found himself a lightning rod for working class Black Power. His deportation catalyzed 20th century Jamaica's most significant rebellion, the 1968 Rodney riots, and his scholarship trained a generation how to think politics at an international scale. In 1980, shortly after founding of the Working People's Alliance in Guyana, the 38-year-old Rodney would be assassinated. In his magnum opus, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, Rodney incisively argues that grasping "the great divergence" between the west and the rest can only be explained as the exploitation of the latter by the former. This meticulously researched analysis of the abiding repercussions of European colonialism on the continent of Africa has not only informed decades of scholarship and activism, it remains an indispensable study for grasping global inequality today.

Book Synopsis People on the Move in a Changing Climate by : Etienne Piguet
Download or read book People on the Move in a Changing Climate written by Etienne Piguet and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policymakers around the world are increasingly concerned about the likely impact of climate change and environmental degradation on the movement of people. This book takes a hard look at the existing evidence available to policymakers in different regions of the world. How much do we really know about the impact of environmental change on migration? How will different regions of the world be affected in the future? Is there evidence to show that migration can help countries adapt to environmental change ? What types of research have been conducted, how reliable is the evidence? These are some of the questions considered in this book, which presents, for the first time, a synthesis of relevant research findings for each major region of the world. Written by regional experts, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the key findings of existing studies on the linkages between environmental change and the movement of people. More and more reports on migration and the environment are being published, but the information is often scattered between countries and within regions, and it is not always clear how much of this information is based on solid research. This book brings this evidence together for the first time, highlighting innovative studies and research gaps. In doing this, the book seeks to help decision-makers draw lessons from existing studies and to identify priorities for further research.
Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook of Environmental Displacement and Migration by : Robert McLeman
Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Environmental Displacement and Migration written by Robert McLeman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last twenty years have seen a rapid increase in scholarly activity and publications dedicated to environmental migration and displacement, and the field has now reached a point in terms of profile, complexity, and sheer volume of reporting that a general review and assessment of existing knowledge and future research priorities is warranted. So far, such a product does not exist. The Routledge Handbook of Environmental Displacement and Migration provides a state-of-the-science review of research on how environmental variability and change influence current and future global migration patterns and, in some instances, trigger large-scale population displacements. Drawing together contributions from leading researchers in the field, this compendium will become a go-to guide for established and newly interested scholars, for government and policymaking entities, and for students and their instructors. It explains theoretical, conceptual, and empirical developments that have been made in recent years; describes their origins and connections to broader topics including migration research, development studies, and international public policy and law; and highlights emerging areas where new and/or additional research and reflection are warranted. The structure and the nature of the book allow the reader to quickly find a concise review relevant to conducting research or developing policy on particular topics, and to obtain a broad, reliable survey of what is presently known about the subject.
