Book Synopsis Smugglers, Brothels, and Twine by : Elaine Carey
Download or read book Smugglers, Brothels, and Twine written by Elaine Carey and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume the borders of North America serve as central locations for examining the consequences of globalization as it intersects with hegemonic spaces and ideas, national territorialism, and opportunities for—or restrictions on—mobility. The authors of the essays in this collection warn against falling victim to the myth of nation-states engaging in a valiant struggle against transnational flows of crime and vice. They take a long historical perspective, from Mesoamerican counterfeits of cacao beans used as currency to cattle rustling to human trafficking; from Canada’s and Mexico’s different approaches to the illegality of liquor in the United States during Prohibition to contemporary case studies of the transnational movement of people, crime, narcotics, vice, and even ideas. By studying the historical flows of contraband and vice across North American borders, the contributors seek to bring a greater understanding of borderlanders, the actual agents of historical change who often remain on the periphery of most historical analyses that focus on the state or on policy. To examine the political, economic, and social shifts resulting from the transnational movement of goods, people, and ideas, these contributions employ the analytical categories of race, class, modernity, and gender that underlie this evolution. Chapters focus on the ways power relations created opportunities for engaging in “deviance,” thus questioning the constructs of economic reality versus concepts of criminal behavior. Looking through the lens of transnational flows of contraband and vice, the authors develop a new understanding of nation, immigration, modernization, globalization, consumer society, and border culture.

Book Synopsis Alcohol in the Age of Industry, Empire, and War by : Deborah Toner
Download or read book Alcohol in the Age of Industry, Empire, and War written by Deborah Toner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines alcohol production, consumption, regulation, and commerce, alongside the gendered, medical, religious, ideological, and cultural practices that surrounded alcohol from 1850 to 1950. Through analyzing major changes in alcohol's place in society, contributors demonstrate the important connections between industrialization, empire-building, and the growth of the nation-state. They also identify the diverse actors and communities that built, contested, and resisted those processes around the world. Overall, this book proposes a new global framework that is vital to understanding how deeply alcohol was involved in central processes shaping the modern world. It shows how empires were partly built through alcohol, in both economic and ideological terms, yet alcohol production, trade, and consumption were also sites for anti-colonial resistance. Contributors also discuss how alcohol regulations and public health discourses increasingly revealed the intent and reach of state power to monitor and police citizens, as well as the legitimization of that power through nationalism. Illustrated with over 50 images, the book will be a valuable resource for students and researchers studying the history of alcohol, as well as the cultural history of the 19th and 20th centuries more broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scotland is the largest producer of oil and is the second largest producer of gas in Europe. It has more than an eighty per cent share of UK's North Sea assets and holds more fresh, high quality water in one of its 250,000 lochs, Loch Ness than is available in all of the lakes in England and Wales. When Scotland is compared with other smaller nations within the European community such as Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Ireland, Iceland, Rumania, Finland, Austria or Portugal, it has more natural resources within its boundaries but often has poorer economic performance, tied as it is to its larger, colonialist neighbour to the south. Scotland is Britain's last colony but as the world entered the twenty-first century, Scottish Independence was on the rise. It threatened the status quo of the Establishment, the economy and the resources available to the United Kingdom. It had to be put down...hard. MI5 were instructed to act to save the Union and retain Scotland, the last British colony, as a servile British colony shackled to Westminster.

Book Synopsis The SAGE Encyclopedia of Alcohol by : Scott C. Martin
Download or read book The SAGE Encyclopedia of Alcohol written by Scott C. Martin and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2014-12-16 with total page 2823 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol consumption goes to the very roots of nearly all human societies. Different countries and regions have become associated with different sorts of alcohol, for instance, the “beer culture” of Germany, the “wine culture” of France, Japan and saki, Russia and vodka, the Caribbean and rum, or the “moonshine culture” of Appalachia. Wine is used in religious rituals, and toasts are used to seal business deals or to celebrate marriages and state dinners. However, our relation with alcohol is one of love/hate. We also regulate it and tax it, we pass laws about when and where it’s appropriate, we crack down severely on drunk driving, and the United States and other countries tried the failed “Noble Experiment” of Prohibition. While there are many encyclopedias on alcohol, nearly all approach it as a substance of abuse, taking a clinical, medical perspective (alcohol, alcoholism, and treatment). The SAGE Encyclopedia of Alcohol examines the history of alcohol worldwide and goes beyond the historical lens to examine alcohol as a cultural and social phenomenon, as well—both for good and for ill—from the earliest days of humankind.
