Book Synopsis Aquiles, breaking chains by : Gonzalo Narvreón
Download or read book Aquiles, breaking chains written by Gonzalo Narvreón and published by Gonzalo Narvreón. This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was no turning back... What has been done was done, and although Aquiles did not know how far he would go or what would happen, his world had undeniably changed. His curiosity, the double intentions, the hints, and the phrases with double meaning, had been left behind. Instead, that kiss had turned his straight man structure upside down. The armor Aquiles had put on to preserve himself and protect himself from something that even he knew, finally rusty and battered, had fallen. It was time to face the situation and accommodate his ideas to continue living a life that would surely not be the same. In this third book of the Aquiles’ saga, Gonzalo Narvreón continues to make us travel through captivating landscapes and situations, making us spectators of the internal conflicts that Achilles faces and the desire that grows in him. That feeling will tempt him to experiment and let himself be carried away into a new world, which until now was alien and unknown to him and in which he will probably discover sensations and pleasures that he never imagined being able to feel.

Book Synopsis Breaking chains, building bridges: cooperation in upholding the rights of workers rescued from conditions analogous to slavery in Tocantins by : Nathalia Canhedo
Download or read book Breaking chains, building bridges: cooperation in upholding the rights of workers rescued from conditions analogous to slavery in Tocantins written by Nathalia Canhedo and published by AYA Editora. This book was released on 2023-11-29 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is the result of a master’s dissertation, but especially of the author’s concern to understand how, in the 21st century, we are still discussing degrading forms of labour without ever having actually freed ourselves from the chains of slavery experienced in centuries past. The state of Tocantins, as one of the Brazilian states that most often supplies slave labour, as well as importing this form of labour, has repercussions both domestically and internationally, which is why the study was justified. The north of Brazil, where the state of Tocantins is located, is a vast region with low levels of education, where many people live below the poverty line and with little state action, making it a favourable environment for workers to be recruited in slavery-like conditions. However, modern slavery has much deeper roots than can be measured and was only formally extinguished by political and economic interests, which contributes to the fact that even today the issue is the subject of worldwide studies and criticism, since the marginalised class of yesteryear has become the modern slaves of today. Unfortunately, history proves that the abolition of slavery was due to British pressure on Brazil to establish a new society: the consumer society. In other words, the new type of society would require products to be commercialised, but above all people to consume them, which justified the end of slavery. However, the end of slavery did not really mean the end of the exploitation of human labour power, because the excluded class of former slaves formed the marginalised class of modern Brazilian society, as they were left at the mercy of a capitalist system that was not inclusive and had no real opportunities for social mobility. Thus, this class of workers defined the future of their generations in which the barriers of social injustice and non-belonging could never be overcome because labour for the former slaves was never an emancipating mechanism, marking secular social injustices that continue to this day. The truth is that freed slaves, especially black, poor and illiterate slaves, started to be chained in other ways, especially those that caused physical and emotional illness, because they had to be subjected to degrading work due to the lack of education, culture and opportunities, making the same slave society of ancient times persist, but in a new guise. The slave of precision, that is, the individual who faces the absence of opportunities to achieve basic survival, becomes the worker in conditions similar to slavery by accepting work in precarious and humiliating conditions for personal and family needs given the demands of the capitalist world, creating a favourable environment for the perpetuation of modern slavery. Therefore, it is against this backdrop that the study of labour in conditions analogous to slavery becomes fundamental so that one day we can actually put an end to this vicious cycle from the perspective of coordinated actions between the various bodies that are responsible at the domestic legal level for combating and eradicating neo-slavery once and for all.
Book Synopsis Breaking Chains by : Christian Sterling
Download or read book Breaking Chains written by Christian Sterling and published by . This book was released on 2018-07-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I fight in the dark, I thrive in the dark, and I summon the dark. And when the lights go out, they know I'm coming for them." Six months following the fiery events of American Parable: Ashes and Embers, our heroes in The Revelators, Young Guns, and DC-2 find themselves facing new threats in gangs, police, politicians, and the mysterious Council. Their journeys of self-fulfillment and romantic endeavors are tested as they combat warfare, kidnapping, and violence, attempting to protect those they love and defeat all they oppose. Enemies become allies and allies become friends in the wake of a greater threat, intertwining their stories more than ever before. With a continued witty dialogue, poetic scene setting, and thought-provoking political prose, every bit of literary excellence can be experienced in American Parable: Breaking Chains. Amazon Reviews: "Christian Sterling has a way of surprising me. The American Parable series falls outside of my typical genres/reads, but each time I open the pages to a new installation I'm sucked right back into the incredible world he's built." "Such a great read! I'm always nervous to read sequels - but this definitely lived up to the first one. I was excited to dive back into the world of these characters, especially Allen and company." "This second installment of the American Parable series is the perfect answer to the first. Sterling's characters are rich and defined in ways that make them feel like old friends."

Book Synopsis Achilles in Vietnam by : Jonathan Shay
Download or read book Achilles in Vietnam written by Jonathan Shay and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original and groundbreaking book that examines the psychological devastation of war by comparing the soldiers of Homer’s Iliad with Vietnam veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. In this moving, dazzlingly creative book, Dr. Shay examines the psychological devastation of war by comparing the soldiers of Homer’s Iliad with Vietnam veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. A classic of war literature that has as much relevance as ever in the wake of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, it is a “transcendent literary adventure” (The New York Times) and “clearly one of the most original and most important scholarly works to have emerged from the Vietnam War” (Tim O’Brien, author of The Things They Carried).
Book Synopsis Photographing the Mexican Revolution by : John Mraz
Download or read book Photographing the Mexican Revolution written by John Mraz and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2012-05-02 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mexican Revolution of 1910–1920 is among the world’s most visually documented revolutions. Coinciding with the birth of filmmaking and the increased mobility offered by the reflex camera, it received extraordinary coverage by photographers and cineastes—commercial and amateur, national and international. Many images of the Revolution remain iconic to this day—Francisco Villa galloping toward the camera; Villa lolling in the presidential chair next to Emiliano Zapata; and Zapata standing stolidly in charro raiment with a carbine in one hand and the other hand on a sword, to mention only a few. But the identities of those who created the thousands of extant images of the Mexican Revolution, and what their purposes were, remain a huge puzzle because photographers constantly plagiarized each other’s images. In this pathfinding book, acclaimed photography historian John Mraz carries out a monumental analysis of photographs produced during the Mexican Revolution, focusing primarily on those made by Mexicans, in order to discover who took the images and why, to what ends, with what intentions, and for whom. He explores how photographers expressed their commitments visually, what aesthetic strategies they employed, and which identifications and identities they forged. Mraz demonstrates that, contrary to the myth that Agustín Víctor Casasola was “the photographer of the Revolution,” there were many who covered the long civil war, including women. He shows that specific photographers can even be linked to the contending forces and reveals a pattern of commitment that has been little commented upon in previous studies (and completely unexplored in the photography of other revolutions).

Book Synopsis The Case for Marriage by : Linda Waite
Download or read book The Case for Marriage written by Linda Waite and published by Crown. This book was released on 2002-03-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking look at marriage, one of the most basic and universal of all human institutions, which reveals the emotional, physical, economic, and sexual benefits that marriage brings to individuals and society as a whole. The Case for Marriage is a critically important intervention in the national debate about the future of family. Based on the authoritative research of family sociologist Linda J. Waite, journalist Maggie Gallagher, and a number of other scholars, this book’s findings dramatically contradict the anti-marriage myths that have become the common sense of most Americans. Today a broad consensus holds that marriage is a bad deal for women, that divorce is better for children when parents are unhappy, and that marriage is essentially a private choice, not a public institution. Waite and Gallagher flatly contradict these assumptions, arguing instead that by a broad range of indices, marriage is actually better for you than being single or divorced– physically, materially, and spiritually. They contend that married people live longer, have better health, earn more money, accumulate more wealth, feel more fulfillment in their lives, enjoy more satisfying sexual relationships, and have happier and more successful children than those who remain single, cohabit, or get divorced. The Case for Marriage combines clearheaded analysis, penetrating cultural criticism, and practical advice for strengthening the institution of marriage, and provides clear, essential guidelines for reestablishing marriage as the foundation for a healthy and happy society. “A compelling defense of a sacred union. The Case for Marriage is well written and well argued, empirically rigorous and learned, practical and commonsensical.” -- William J. Bennett, author of The Book of Virtues “Makes the absolutely critical point that marriage has been misrepresented and misunderstood.” -- The Wall Street Journal www.broadwaybooks.com
