Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States, in the Orient: The Nature of the Economic Problem The United States have recently assumed serious responsibilities in the Orient. While the manner of their assumption had something of the appearance of accident, this country has only followed other civilized states in the general movement to find outlets for their surplus capital and the products of their labor. The United States have actually reached, or are approaching, the economic state where such outlets are required outside their own boundaries, in order to prevent business depression, idleness, and suffering at home. Such outlets might be found without the exercise of political and military power, if commercial freedom was the policy of all nations.

Download or read book Orientalism written by Edward W. Said and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than three decades after its first publication, Edward Said's groundbreaking critique of the West's historical, cultural, and political perceptions of the East has become a modern classic. In this wide-ranging, intellectually vigorous study, Said traces the origins of "orientalism" to the centuries-long period during which Europe dominated the Middle and Near East and, from its position of power, defined "the orient" simply as "other than" the occident. This entrenched view continues to dominate western ideas and, because it does not allow the East to represent itself, prevents true understanding. Essential, and still eye-opening, Orientalism remains one of the most important books written about our divided world.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... vn THE UNITED STATES AS A WORLD POWER THEIR ADVANTAGES IN THE COMPETITION FOR COMMERCIAL EMPIRE Having defined the nature of the economic problem which confronts the nations in the struggle for commercial empire, it remains to consider the means for winning supremacy in this struggle and the advantages and disadvantages under which the United States enter the contest. The fact that the shutting up of markets, diplomatic intrigue, and even the sword are factors in the contest takes it beyond the purely economic field and sets it on a stage where the play of the great forces of passion, patriotism, and race conflict give surpassing interest to the drama of world history. We have seen that intensity of competition in a world-wide market is the dominating note of modern industrial life. We have seen that the highest efficiency of every factor in production is the only means of winning in the economic field, but that states which fear to trust their forces in this field may throw the sword into the balance, as Brennus tossed his blade upon the scales which weighed the gold to ransom Home. It behooves the nation, therefore, which would succeed in the economic contest to be prepared also for the final test of force, which has not ceased to be a factor in the world's affairs. In dealing with the position of the United States in this contest, it will appear that they enjoy many advantages inherent in the character of the race and the development of republican institutions, but that the very breadth of these advantages involves some impairment of the unity and force which belong to absolutism. The question of the relative efficiency of the United States and their industrial rivals involves the factors of political organization, natural resources, ...

Book Synopsis The Orient Within by : Mary C. Neuburger
Download or read book The Orient Within written by Mary C. Neuburger and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-15 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bulgaria is a Slavic nation, Orthodox in faith but with a sizable Muslim minority. That minority is divided into various ethnic groups, including the most numerically significant Turks and the so-called Pomaks, Bulgarian-speaking men and women who have converted to Islam. Mary Neuburger explores how Muslim minorities were integral to Bulgaria's struggle to extricate itself from its Ottoman past and develop a national identity, a process complicated by its geographic and historical positioning between evolving and imagined parameters of East and West. The Orient Within examines the Slavic majority's efforts to conceptualize and manage Turkish and Pomak identities and bodies through gendered dress practices, renaming of people and places, and land reclamation projects. Neuburger shows that the relationship between Muslims and the Bulgarian majority has run the gamut from accommodation to forced removal to total assimilation from 1878, when Bulgaria acquired autonomy from the Ottoman Empire, to 1989, when Bulgaria's Communist dictatorship collapsed. Neuburger subjects the concept of Orientalism to an important critique, showing its relevance and complexity in the Bulgarian context, where national identity and modernity were brokered in the shadow of Western Europe, Russia/USSR, and Turkey.
Book Synopsis Go East, Young Man by : Richard Francaviglia
Download or read book Go East, Young Man written by Richard Francaviglia and published by Utah State University Press. This book was released on 2019-11 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transference of orientalist images and identities to the American landscape and its inhabitants, especially in the West—in other words, portrayal of the West as the “Orient”—has been a common aspect of American cultural history. Place names, such as the Jordan River or Pyramid Lake, offer notable examples, but the imagery and its varied meanings are more widespread and significant. Understanding that range and significance, especially to the western part of the continent, means coming to terms with the complicated, nuanced ideas of the Orient and of the North American continent that European Americans brought to the West. Such complexity is what historical geographer Richard Francaviglia unravels in this book. Since the publication of Edward Said’s book, Orientalism, the term has come to signify something one-dimensionally negative. In essence, the orientalist vision was an ethnocentric characterization of the peoples of Asia (and Africa and the “Near East”) as exotic, primitive “others” subject to conquest by the nations of Europe. That now well-established point, which expresses a postcolonial perspective, is critical, but Francaviglia suggest that it overlooks much variation and complexity in the views of historical actors and writers, many of whom thought of western places in terms of an idealized and romanticized Orient. It likewise neglects positive images and interpretations to focus on those of a decadent and ostensibly inferior East. We cannot understand well or fully what the pervasive orientalism found in western cultural history meant, says Francaviglia, if we focus only on its role as an intellectual engine for European imperialism. It did play that role as well in the American West. One only need think about characterizations of American Indians as Bedouins of the Plains destined for displacement by a settled frontier. Other roles for orientalism, though, from romantic to commercial ones, were also widely in play. In Go East, Young Man, Francaviglia explores a broad range of orientalist images deployed in the context of European settlement of the American West, and he unfolds their multiple significances.

Book Synopsis A New Andalucia and a Way to the Orient by : Paul E. Hoffman
Download or read book A New Andalucia and a Way to the Orient written by Paul E. Hoffman and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2004-11-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul E. Hoffman's groundbreaking book focuses on a neglected area of colonial history -- southeastern North America during the sixteenth-century. Hoffman describes expeditions to the region, efforts at colonization, and rivalries between the French, Spanish, and English. He reveals the ways in which the explorers' expectations -- fueled by legends -- crumbled in the face of difficulties encountered along the southeastern coast. The first book to link the earliest voyages with the explorations of the sixteenth century and the settlement of later colonies, Hoffman's work is an important reassessment of southern colonial history.
