Download or read book Transnational Identities and Practices in Canada written by Vic Satzewich and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With contributions from some of Canada's leading historians, political scientists, geographers, anthropologists, and sociologists, this collection examines the transnational practices and identities of immigrant and ethnic communities in Canada. It looks at why members of these groups maintain ties with their homelands -- whether real or imagined -- and how those connections shape individual identities and community organizations. How does transnationalism establish or transform geographical, social, and ideological borders? Do homeland ties affect what it means to be "Canadian"? Do they reflect Canada's commitment to multiculturalism? Through analysis of the complex forces driving transnationalism, this comprehensive study focuses attention on an important, and arguably growing, dimension of Canadian social life. This is the first collection in Canada to provide a comprehensive and interdisciplinary examination of transnationalism. It will appeal to scholars and students interested in issues of immigration, multiculturalism, ethnicity, and settlement.

Book excerpt: The Unknown Islands is considered one of the most beautiful works of travel literature in Portuguese and one of the most important homages to the Azorean archipelago. In the summer of 1924, Raul Brandão undertook a trip with other intellectuals through the Azores and Madeira. Fascinated with the landscapes of the islands and seduced by the people, he went on to pen this foundational text of Azorean literature--elegantly capturing the history, memory, and imaginary of this storied place.

Download or read book Indigenous Routes written by Carlos Yescas Angeles Trujano and published by Hammersmith Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As migration has not commonly been considered as part of the indigenous experience, the prevalent view of indigenous communities tends to portray them as static groups, deeply rooted in their territories and customs. Increasingly, however, indigenous peoples are leaving their long-held territories as part of the phenomenon of global migration beyond the customary seasonal and cultural movements of particular groups. Diverse examples of indigenous peoples' migration, its distinctive features and commonalities are highlighted throughout this report, and show that more research and data on this topic are necessary to better inform policies on migration and other phenomena that have an impact on indigenous people' lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joe Biden, um nome que ressoa na história política americana, é muito mais do que um simples político. Sua trajetória é marcada por desafios, conquistas e um compromisso inabalável com o serviço público. Desde sua infância em Scranton, Pennsylvania, até a Casa Branca, Biden é um exemplo de resiliência e esperança. Este livro busca explorar sua vida sob uma luz positiva, destacando não apenas suas realizações, mas também as lições valiosas que ele oferece ao mundo. Nascido em 20 de novembro de 1942, Joe Biden cresceu em um ambiente que moldou profundamente sua visão de mundo. Scranton, uma cidade operária, ensinou-lhe a importância da comunidade e da luta por justiça social. Desde cedo, Biden foi exposto às dificuldades econômicas que muitas famílias enfrentavam, desenvolvendo uma empatia que guiaria suas decisões ao longo da vida. Sua infância não foi isenta de desafios, mas esses desafios cimentaram sua determinação de lutar por um futuro melhor para todos. A carreira política de Biden começou em 1972, quando ele foi eleito para o Senado dos EUA aos 29 anos. Essa jornada não foi apenas uma busca por poder; foi uma luta pela justiça. Desde seus primeiros dias no Senado, Biden defendeu os direitos civis e a igualdade, tornando-se uma voz ativa em questões cruciais da época. Sua paixão por justiça social se tornou uma marca registrada de sua carreira e uma motivação constante em sua trajetória. Uma das parcerias mais significativas da vida de Biden foi sua relação com Barack Obama. A amizade que se desenvolveu entre os dois não apenas redefiniu suas carreiras, mas também teve um impacto profundo na política americana. Juntos, eles enfrentaram desafios enormes, como a crise econômica de 2008, e trabalharam incansavelmente para implementar mudanças que beneficiariam milhões de americanos. Essa parceria não foi apenas sobre política; foi uma verdadeira amizade baseada em respeito mútuo e objetivos compartilhados. Saiba Muito Mais...

Download or read book Images of Immigrants and Refugees in Western Europe written by Leen d’Haenens and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perception and representation of newcomers and immigrants The topic of migration has become particularly contentious in national and international debates. Media have a discernable impact on overall societal attitudes towards this phenomenon. Polls show time and again that immigration is one of the most important issues occupying people’s minds. This book examines the dynamic interplay between media representations of migrants and refugees on the one hand and the governmental and societal (re)actions to these on the other. Largely focusing on Belgium and Sweden, this collection of interdisciplinary research essays attempts to unravel the determinants of people’s preferences regarding migration policy, expectations towards newcomers, and economic, humanitarian and cultural concerns about immigration’s effect on the majority population’s life. Whilst migrants and refugees remain voiceless and highly underrepresented in the legacy media, this volume allows their voices to be heard.

Download or read book An Archaeology of the Contemporary Era written by Alfredo Gonzalez-Ruibal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Archaeology of the Contemporary Era approaches the contemporary age, between the late nineteenth and twenty-first centuries, as an archaeological period defined by specific material processes. It reflects on the theory and practice of the archaeology of the contemporary past from epistemological, political, ethical and aesthetic viewpoints, and characterises the present based on archaeological traces from the spatial, temporal and material excesses that define it. The materiality of our era, the book argues, and particularly its ruins and rubbish, reveals something profound, original and disturbing about humanity. This is the first attempt at describing the contemporary era from an archaeological point of view. Global in scope, the book brings together case studies from every continent and considers sources from peripheral and rarely considered traditions, meanwhile engaging in an interdisciplinary dialogue with philosophy, anthropology, history and geography. An Archaeology of the Contemporary Era will be essential reading for students and practitioners of the archaeology of the contemporary past, historical archaeology and archaeological theory. It will also be of interest to anybody concerned with globalisation, modernity and the Anthropocene.

Download or read book The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America written by Virginia Garrard-Burnett and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 995 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge History of Religions in Latin America covers religious history in Latin America from pre-Conquest times until the present. This publication is important; first, because of the historical and contemporary centrality of religion in the life of Latin America; second, for the rapid process of religious change which the region is undergoing; and third, for the region's religious distinctiveness in global comparative terms, which contributes to its importance for debates over religion, globalization, and modernity. Reflecting recent currents of scholarship, this volume addresses the breadth of Latin American religion, including religions of the African diaspora, indigenous spiritual expressions, non-Christian traditions, new religious movements, alternative spiritualities, and secularizing tendencies.
