Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An epic novel of love and duty at war across the reach of time. At the height of the air war in Europe, Captain Joe Farley and the baseball-loving, wisecracking crew of the B-17 Flying Fortress Fata Morgana are in the middle of a harrowing bombing mission over eastern Germany when everything goes sideways. The bombs are still falling and flak is still exploding all around the 20-ton bomber as it is knocked like a bathtub duck into another world. Suddenly stranded with the final outcasts of a desolated world, Captain Farley navigates a maze of treachery and wonder—and finds a love seemingly decreed by fate—as his bomber becomes a pawn in a centuries-old conflict between remnants of advanced but decaying civilizations. Caught among these bitter enemies, a vast power that has brought them here for its own purposes, and a terrifying living weapon bent on their destruction, the crew must use every bit of their formidable inventiveness and courage to survive. Fata Morgana—the epic novel of love and duty at war across the reach of time.

Book Synopsis Mainstreaming the Tribal Areas (ex-FATA) of Pakistan Bordering Afghanistan by : Asghar Khan
Download or read book Mainstreaming the Tribal Areas (ex-FATA) of Pakistan Bordering Afghanistan written by Asghar Khan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-23 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book addresses why the Pakistani state is facing persistent challenges in extending and consolidating its governance (authority) throughout its territories, especially in the former Federally Administered Tribal Areas (ex-FATA)? Even after the de jure merger, the question still remains valid that how Pakistani state could establish its governance in these tribal areas? Through multi-dimensional approaches and multi-pronged analysis of state-centric (top-down), society-centric (bottom-up) and state-in-society (mixed-horizontal) approaches, the book explains factors and dimensions that pose challenges to Pakistani state governance in ex-FATA. The main hypothesis is that societies, where state governance is absent, turn to informal governance and create informal institutions as a substitute for the weak central state governance thereby challenging the domination and control/authority of the state. The book presents policy recommendations for bringing these tribal areas into the mainstream governance system of Pakistan.
Book Synopsis The Rise and Decline of the Insurgency in Pakistan’s FATA by : Shahzad Akhtar
Download or read book The Rise and Decline of the Insurgency in Pakistan’s FATA written by Shahzad Akhtar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the emergence, rise, and decline of insurgency by the Pakistani Taliban in Pakistan’s North-Western region, also known as Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). It provides a detailed account of the rise and decline of the FATA insurgency and also examines aftereffects of the insurgency. Offering an in-depth analysis of how insurgency in the FATA began in 2004 after Pakistan entered its military forces into the tribal areas, the author illustrates that the insurgency erupted when state repression on masses is combined with a disruption of the previous modus vivendi centered on co-optation of local elites. In the following years, the insurgency became so powerful that most of the FATA region fell under the control of the insurgents. The book further argues that a weak counterinsurgency strategy by the Pakistani government characterised by the overzealous use of force and a failure to win the support of local communities led the insurgency to become stronger and expand its control. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that a more robust counterinsurgency strategy, relying more on a determined and a judicious use of force and attempts to gain the trust and support of local communities, adopted in the later years led to the collapse of the insurgency. In short, this book offers an explanation of what makes an insurgency more likely to occur and how insurgency escalates and declines. In addition, this book sheds light on recent development in FATA including the merger of FATA with the mainstream Pakistan, the rise of the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement, a non-violent protest movement, and the resurgence of the Pakistani Taliban especially after the Afghan Taliban capture of Kabul in the wake of US withdrawal of forces in Afghanistan. This book is a timely addition to the literature on South Asian Politics and Security Studies.
Book Synopsis Fata de la marginea vietii by : Mircea Cartarescu
Download or read book Fata de la marginea vietii written by Mircea Cartarescu and published by Humanitas SA. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: „Unele dintre micile istorii adunate aici sunt basme, altele povestiri, altele, până la urmă, fragmente de jurnal. Toate sunt în definitiv amintiri, reale sau inventate. Nu imagini ale realităţii, ci ale minţii care o decupează din hiperrealitatea noastră de toate zilele. Au fost presărate până acum în multe dintre cărţile mele, în alte contexte şi cerând o altă lectură. M-am gândit să le strâng, pentru plăcerea cititorului, între coperţile unui singur volum, nu pentru că aş crede foarte mult – deşi cred – în calităţile prozei scurte, ci mai ales pentru că am o credinţă de neclintit în poezie. N-am prea avut de ales în alcătuirea acestei culegeri de «povestiri alese». Am lăsat doar să intre texte de o lungime rezonabilă, pe care m-am amuzat să le aşez într-o ordine oarecare, dar altfel le-am lăsat să colaboreze, să se alieze, să se înfrunte, să se submineze-ntre ele ca orice grup de necunoscuţi adunat între zidurile unei odăi. Sperând ca până la urmă să iasă de-aici mallarméanul «beau livre».“ (Mircea CĂRTĂRESCU)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The virtually continuous abuse of females in our society compels some to debate and impels others to act. Every father must protect his daughter-and all of our daughters need protection. Niccolò Cérvantés de'Conti began his career as a New York City Prosecutor and rose to become the United States Attorney in New York. He then entered private practice at a prominent, New York law firm, The Union and Metropolitan. Years before, Nick de'Conti's college-age daughter, Elspeth, was kidnapped, raped, tortured and murdered. The system he trusted failed him. He reverted to the base instincts of his youth in inner-city East Harlem and murdered his daughter's killers. As a result, de'Conti is recruited into FATA!, a secret society of wealthy, middle-age men (The Protectors) and admiring young women (The Communicators), that avenges the deaths of females lost to violence (The Lost Ones). FATA! stands for Fathers Against the Abuse. de'Conti becomes prominent in this cult of grieving fathers and the sisters of young women murdered by predatory men. de'Conti and his cult accomplish in the darkness of the night what law enforcement cannot achieve in the bright light of day.

Book Synopsis Determinants of entrepreneurial behaviour in FATA Pakistan by : Muhammad, Ali
Download or read book Determinants of entrepreneurial behaviour in FATA Pakistan written by Muhammad, Ali and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2016-02-19 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research investigates determinants of entrepreneurial behaviour in one of the most impoverished areas of Pakistan, the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). Unlike the developed world, the scenario in emerging economies is quite different, where entrepreneurs have to rely primarily on socio-cultural factors that facilitate them to pursue entrepreneurship as a means to earn livelihoods. However, little predictive empirical work has investigated enterprising behaviour in the tribal areas of Pakistan. This study examines the relative strength of selected entrepre-neurial determinant in the Pashtun tribal culture. Persistent wars, economic downturn, and strong cultural adherence have turned the Pashtun tribesmen into necessity entrepreneurs. Based on primary data from 462 respondents, entre-preneurial behaviour measured by self-reported views toward risk-taking and innovativeness are related to economic, institutional, and cultural constructs using logistic regression models. Different sets of predictors emerged for risk-taking and innovativeness. We find some, but limited support for hypothesized determinants of entrepreneurial be-havior. This study informs academics as to how entrepreneurial behaviour of Pashtuns can be enhanced, setting up hypotheses and results for future research exploration, and can guide policy to stimulate underlying factors that will promote entrepreneurship in FATA.

This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic principles and Pashtunwali are the two main factors dominating the social behavior in Pashtun society. Regarding the status of women they are similar in some aspects of life while in several others, they are different from each other. They are similar in the practices of polygamy; banquet during marriage; veil (purdah) of women; rules for entering the houses of others and up to some extent in the method of divorce. They are different in the practices of womens share in property and inheritance; the seeking of consent of women during marriage; the punishment of adultery and honor killing; the practice of mahr and bride-price. In Pashtun society women are denied the share in property and inheritance; consent in marriage is also not sought; they are killed in cases of adultery or on the basis of mere suspicion and friendly relations with men. The family of the woman takes bride-price on her marriage. The practices of forced marriages also take place like swara, takkan kawal, badal wodaetc but these practices are rare. Although divorce takes place according to Islamic principles but women have a little say in seeking divorce.
