Book excerpt: In this book, women's organization PILIPINA chronicles the stories of 19 women — wives, mothers, daughters, among others — who were left behind by the drug-related killings. "The women in our stories have become part of a new underclass among the urban poor: ostracized and isolated by their neighbors, threatened by barangay officials and their loved ones’ murderers, vulnerable to sexual exploitation by police and drug lords and their own kin. But they are also actively dealing with their situation, taking charge of their own lives and those of their families."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of low-wage workers rising up around the world to demand respect and a living wage. Tracing a new labor movement sparked and sustained by low-wage workers from across the globe, “We Are All Fast-Food Workers Now” is an urgent, illuminating look at globalization as seen through the eyes of workers-activists: small farmers, fast-food servers, retail workers, hotel housekeepers, home-healthcare aides, airport workers, and adjunct professors who are fighting for respect, safety, and a living wage. With original photographs by Liz Cooke and drawing on interviews with activists in many US cities and countries around the world, including Bangladesh, Cambodia, Mexico, South Africa, and the Philippines, it features stories of resistance and rebellion, as well as reflections on hope and change as it rises from the bottom up.
Book Synopsis Cultures of Intoxication by : Fiona Hutton
Download or read book Cultures of Intoxication written by Fiona Hutton and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-25 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the global discourses and debates about ‘intoxication’, engaging in critical academic discussion around this concept. The problems in defining intoxication are considered, alongside the meanings of intoxication and how these meanings often differ across diverse drug using populations. The way that intoxication has been engaged with over the centuries has affected how particular groups are perceived and responded to, resulting in punitive responses such as drug prohibition, alongside harsh treatment of those who are seen to transgress societal norms and values. Therefore, this collection seeks to unsettle dominant discourses about intoxication and to consider this concept in new, critical ways. Ways of being intoxicated are also defined in this book in their broadest sense; from ‘energy drinks’ and other legal drugs, to recreational use of illicit drugs such as ecstasy, to ‘problematic’ drug use.
Book Synopsis Economic Dimensions of Covid-19 in Indonesia by : Blane D. Lewis
Download or read book Economic Dimensions of Covid-19 in Indonesia written by Blane D. Lewis and published by ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in December 2019, the coronavirus swept quickly through all regions of the world. COVID 19 has wreaked social, political and economic havoc everywhere and has shown few signs of entirely abating. The recent development and approval of new vaccines against the virus, however, now provides some hope that we may be coming to the beginning of the end of the pandemic. This volume collects papers from a conference titled Economic Dimensions of COVID 19 in Indonesia: Responding to the Crisis, organised by the Australian National University’s Indonesia Project and held online 7–10 September 2020. Collectively, the chapters in this volume focus for the most part on the economic elements of COVID 19 in Indonesia. The volume considers both macro- and micro-economic effects across a variety of dimensions, and short- and long-term impacts as well. It constitutes the first comprehensive analysis of Indonesia’s initial response to the crisis from an economic perspective.
Book Synopsis PROBING POPULISM IN THE PHILIPPINES by :
Download or read book PROBING POPULISM IN THE PHILIPPINES written by and published by INCITEGov. This book was released on with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2018, the International Center for Innovation, Transformation and Excellence in Governance (INCITEGov) and the De La Salle University – Jesse M. Robredo Institute of Governance (DLSU–JRIG), both members of the Asia Democracy Research Network (ADRN), came up with two reports that examined the case of populism in the Philippines. INCITEGov focused on civil society’s responses to President Duterte’s populist leadership, while JRIG on the utilization of social media for populist agenda. The two papers are part of ADRN’s State of Democracy in Asia (SODA) Report. The findings of the two reports were presented and validated during the National Consultation on Populism in the Philippines, a multi-sectoral forum organized by INCITEGov and JRIG on Sept. 13, 2018. The activity also aimed to analyze the challenges posed by populism and identify possible action points; expand the scope of action-oriented and policy-driven research; and forge linkages among democracy practitioners in promoting, consolidating, and deepening democracy. This publication contains the proceedings of the forum and is divided into three sessions: 1) Understanding Populism in the Philippines; 2) Populism and Social Media; and 3) Populism and Civil Society. The first session explores the concept of populism using the economic and gender lenses, and from the perspective of the populist public. JRIG and INCITEGov’s reports were presented in the second and third sessions, respectively, each followed by further insights from a panel of reactors and an open forum.

Book Synopsis COVID-19: EveryWoman’s Feminist Response and Recovery Plan by : Sylvia Estrada Claudio
Download or read book COVID-19: EveryWoman’s Feminist Response and Recovery Plan written by Sylvia Estrada Claudio and published by PILIPINA, EveryWoman. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EveryWoman, a coalition of women’s organizations and formations (currently numbering 11), combined with individual women affiliates and backed up by a FaceBook Page (with more than 100,000 followers), was formally organized in August, 2017, for the purpose of defending democracy and upholding women’s rights and dignity at a time when these are under severe attack not only in the Philippines but globally. We had come together, cutting across diverse socioeconomic, ethnic, professional, ideological, and generational backgrounds, to propel organized pushback against the further erosion of civic (also civil) space and of the status and rights that Filipino women have fought hard to attain and have won over the years. As such, our actions in the past years have tended towards the loud and dramatic – in the streets, in public fora, in stinging public statements, often joining our voice with those of our allied Hubs in Tindig Pilipinas. A book had no space in our crowded blueprint for 2020. But then the COVID-19 pandemic happened. As with everyone else, EveryWoman’s world was turned upside down. Needing to get back our bearings – personally, organizationally, politically – we started discussions to try to understand the situation better, including the nature of this global health crisis, how it was affecting different aspects of our national life, how it was especially reshaping women’s lives on the ground, how government was responding (or not), the role of the private sector and other institutions, the plight of ordinary citizens. We probed our own areas of work and engagement. We invited friends and colleagues where we needed help. We saw it to be our responsibility to continue to surface and strengthen women’s perspectives and agency in these difficult and extraordinary times. And, thus, this book was born, emerging from every woman talking to each other and claiming our space to speak up and be heard, intent to make a difference – especially since we saw no women at the frontlines of the national task force set up by the President to respond to the crisis.

Download or read book My Voice written by Angie Martinez and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback—Angie Martinez, the “Voice of New York,” candidly recounts the story of her rise to become an internationally celebrated hip hop radio icon. In her current reign at Power 105.1 and for nearly two decades at New York’s Hot 97, Angie Martinez has had one of the highest rated radio shows in the country. After working her way up as an intern, she burst on the scene as a young female jock whose on-air “Battle of the Beats” segment broke records and became a platform for emerging artists like a young Jay Z. Angie quickly became known for intimate, high-profile interviews, mediating feuds between artists, and taking on the most controversial issues in hip hop. At age twenty-five, at the height of the East Coast/West Coast rap war, Angie was summoned by Tupac Shakur for what would be his last no-holds-barred interview—which has never aired in its entirety and which she’s never discussed in detail—until now. Angie shares stories from behind-the-scenes of her most controversial conversations, from onetime presidential hopeful Barack Obama to superstars like Mary J. Blige and Chris Brown, and describes her emotional, bittersweet final days at Hot 97 and the highly publicized move to Power 105.1. She also opens up about her personal life—from her roots in Washington Heights and her formative years being raised by a single mom in Brooklyn to exploring the lessons that shaped her into the woman she is today. From the Puerto Rican Day Parade to the White House—Angie is universally recognized as a powerful voice in the Latino and hip hop communities. My Voice gives an inside look at New York City’s one-of-a-kind urban radio culture, the changing faces of hip hop music, and Angie’s rise to become the Voice of New York.

Book Synopsis The Sacred Universe by : Thomas Berry
Download or read book The Sacred Universe written by Thomas Berry and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading scholar, cultural historian, and Catholic priest who spent more than fifty years writing about our engagement with the Earth, Thomas Berry possessed prophetic insight into the rampant destruction of ecosystems and the extinction of species. In this book he makes a persuasive case for an interreligious dialogue that can better confront the environmental problems of the twenty-first century. These erudite and keenly sympathetic essays represent Berry's best work, covering such issues as human beings' modern alienation from nature and the possibilities of future, regenerative forms of religious experience. Asking that we create a new story of the universe and the emergence of the Earth within it, Berry resituates the human spirit within a sacred totality.
Book Synopsis Transcendental Style in Film by : Paul Schrader
Download or read book Transcendental Style in Film written by Paul Schrader and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-05-18 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a new introduction, acclaimed director and screenwriter Paul Schrader revisits and updates his contemplation of slow cinema over the past fifty years. Unlike the style of psychological realism, which dominates film, the transcendental style expresses a spiritual state by means of austere camerawork, acting devoid of self-consciousness, and editing that avoids editorial comment. This seminal text analyzes the film style of three great directors—Yasujiro Ozu, Robert Bresson, and Carl Dreyer—and posits a common dramatic language used by these artists from divergent cultures. The new edition updates Schrader’s theoretical framework and extends his theory to the works of Andrei Tarkovsky (Russia), Béla Tarr (Hungary), Theo Angelopoulos (Greece), and Nuri Bilge Ceylan (Turkey), among others. This key work by one of our most searching directors and writers is widely cited and used in film and art classes. With evocative prose and nimble associations, Schrader consistently urges readers and viewers alike to keep exploring the world of the art film.
Book Synopsis ILANG TAONG BAKWIT? by : Maria Carmen (Ica) Fernandez
Download or read book ILANG TAONG BAKWIT? written by Maria Carmen (Ica) Fernandez and published by INCITEGov. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oct. 17, 2021 marks the fourth year since the liberation of Marawi was declared. Yet, the unfinished reconstruction of the city after the 2017 crisis, resulting in the protracted displacement of hundreds of thousands of residents, is a major humanitarian and security issue that the Philippines is in danger of forgetting. In this report, Ica Fernandez synthesizes findings from a rapid review of humanitarian, development, peacebuilding, and security programs implemented as part of post-Marawi crisis efforts from 2017 to 2020. The review finds that the Philippine government has not yet substantially completed its commitments towards the city’s reconstruction; the Marawi Compensation Bill, without which many residents will not be able to rebuild their homes, is still pending in Congress. As of publication, the TFBM targets to complete roads and public infrastructure in the most affected area (MAA) by December 2021. --- This report was commissioned by INCITEGov with support from Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) Philippines to assist ongoing efforts by Maranao civil society organizations for a peaceful citizen-led return of displaced residents to the Islamic City of Marawi. The review was conducted from August to September 2020 and synthesized existing data and reports collected by relevant bodies in the House of Representatives and the Bangsamoro Transition Authority, as well as reports from media, donor agencies, and civil society. The analysis also draws from a supplementary Marawi budget and expenditure review conducted by the Institute for Leadership, Empowerment, and Democracy (iLEAD). Preliminary findings were presented in an exclusive online forum with Maranao civil society partners on 19 October 2020 titled Tatlong Taong Bakwit.
