Book Synopsis Salt in the Sand by : Lessie Jo Frazier
Download or read book Salt in the Sand written by Lessie Jo Frazier and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-17 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salt in the Sand is a compelling historical ethnography of the interplay between memory and state violence in the formation of the Chilean nation-state. The historian and anthropologist Lessie Jo Frazier focuses on northern Chile, which figures prominently in the nation’s history as a site of military glory during the period of national conquest, of labor strikes and massacres in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth, and of state detention and violence during World War II and the Cold War. It was also the site of a mass-grave excavation that galvanized the national human rights movement in 1990, during Chile’s transition from dictatorship to democracy. Frazier analyzes the creation of official and alternative memories of specific instances of state violence in northern Chile from 1890 to the present, tracing how the form and content of those memories changed over time. In so doing, she shows how memory works to create political subjectivities mobilized for specific political projects within what she argues is the always-ongoing process of nation-state formation. Frazier’s broad historical perspective on political culture challenges the conventional periodization of modern Chilean history, particularly the idea that the 1973 military coup marked a radical break with the past. Analyzing multiple memories of state violence, Frazier innovatively shapes social and cultural theory to interpret a range of sources, including local and national government archives, personal papers, popular literature and music, interviews, architectural and ceremonial commemorations, and her ethnographic observations of civic associations, women's and environmental groups, and human rights organizations. A masterful integration of extensive empirical research with sophisticated theoretical analysis, Salt in the Sand is a significant contribution to interdisciplinary scholarship on human rights, democratization, state formation, and national trauma and reconciliation.

Download or read book Sea of Sand written by Michael M. Geary and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sculpted into graceful contours by countless centuries of wind and water, the Great Sand Dunes sprawl along the eastern fringes of the vast San Luis Valley of south-central Colorado. Covering an area of nearly thirty square miles, they are the tallest aeolian, or wind-produced, dunes in North America, towering 750 feet above the valley floor. With the addition of the enormous Baca Ranch and other adjacent lands, the dunes—originally designated as a National Monument in 1932—attained official National Park status in 2004. In Sea of Sand, Michael M. Geary guides readers on a historical journey through this unique ecosystem, which includes an array of natural and cultural wonders, from the main dunefield and verdant wetlands to the summits of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Described by explorer Zebulon Pike as “a sea in a storm” and by frontier photographer William Henry Jackson as “a curious and very singular phase of nature’s freak,” the Great Sand Dunes are a nexus of more than 10,000 years of human history, from Paleolithic big-game hunters to nomadic Native Americans, from Spanish conquistadores and transcontinental explorers to hard-rock miners and modern-day tourists in motor homes. Like these successive waves of visitors, Sea of Sand follows the water, analyzing its critical role in the settlement and development of the region. Geary also describes the profound impact that waves of human use and settlement have had on the land—which ultimately inspired the early grassroots efforts by San Luis Valley citizens to protect the dunes from further exploitation. He examines as well the more recent legislative effort led by an unprecedented coalition of local, state, and federal agencies and organizations, including The Nature Conservancy and the National Park Service, to secure the Great Sand Dunes’ national park designation. Amply illustrated, Sea of Sand is the definitive history of the natural, cultural, and political forces that helped shape this incomparable landscape.

Download or read book Of Sand or Soil written by Nadav Samin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do tribal genealogies matter in modern-day Saudi Arabia? What compels the strivers and climbers of the new Saudi Arabia to want to prove their authentic descent from one or another prestigious Arabian tribe? Of Sand or Soil looks at how genealogy and tribal belonging have informed the lives of past and present inhabitants of Saudi Arabia and how the Saudi government's tacit glorification of tribal origins has shaped the powerful development of the kingdom’s genealogical culture. Nadav Samin presents the first extended biographical exploration of the major twentieth-century Saudi scholar Ḥamad al-Jāsir, whose genealogical studies frame the story about belonging and identity in the modern kingdom. Samin examines the interplay between al-Jāsir’s genealogical project and his many hundreds of petitioners, mostly Saudis of nontribal or lower status origin who sought validation of their tribal roots in his genealogical texts. Investigating the Saudi relationship to this opaque, orally inscribed historical tradition, Samin considers the consequences of modern Saudi genealogical politics and how the most intimate anxieties of nontribal Saudis today are amplified by the governing strategies and kinship ideology of the Saudi state. Challenging the impression that Saudi culture is determined by puritanical religiosity or rentier economic principles, Of Sand or Soil shows how the exploration and establishment of tribal genealogies have become influential phenomena in contemporary Saudi society. Beyond Saudi Arabia, this book casts important new light on the interplay between kinship ideas, oral narrative, and state formation in rapidly changing societies.

Book excerpt: The Alchemy of Technological Transcendence In the boundless tapestry of human ingenuity, where innovation intertwines with the raw elements of nature, emerges a chronicle that transcends the ordinary—a narrative of metamorphosis, from the humble grains of Thar's sands to the pinnacle of technological sophistication. This odyssey, etched in silicon dreams and forged in the crucible of progress, unveils the alchemy that transforms arid landscapes into the very foundation of our technological future. As we embark upon the pages that follow, envision a realm where the golden sands of Thar, once whispered secrets of ancient seas, now yield the treasures of silicon, iron, arsenic, and rare earth elements. Each grain, a repository of geological history, becomes a testament to the inexhaustible wellspring of possibilities that lie within. In the crucible of innovation, silicon emerges as the maestro, orchestrating a symphony of microprocessors that transcend the limits of computation. Satellites, once beholden to the constraints of technology, now navigate the cosmos with unparalleled efficiency, their silicon hearts pulsating with the rhythm of exploration. Across the expanse of industries, from the intricate circuits of robots to the pulsating veins of instruments on spacecraft, Thar's silicon becomes the catalyst for a technological renaissance. But the narrative extends beyond the silicon horizon, weaving in the rich hues of iron-infused sands. From the crucible of metallurgy arises a structural metamorphosis that defines our skylines, bridges our worlds, and propels the wheels of progress. Iron, once a mere component of Thar's red grains, now forges infrastructures that stand as testament to the synergy between the terrestrial and the technological. Arsenic, often deemed a harbinger of toxicity, unfolds as a paradoxical pioneer in the realm of sustainable electronics. Thar's sands, laden with arsenic, become the crucible for innovations that balance the scales between technological advancement and environmental stewardship. Gallium arsenide, an offspring of this alchemical process, finds its place in the solar cells that harness the energy of the sun and semiconductor devices that propel us into an era of green technologies. The pink sands, adorned with rare earth elements, unfold a chapter of technological marvels that span the realms of magnets, electronics, and renewable energy. Neodymium, dysprosium, europium, and their kin become the unsung heroes of a silent revolution, propelling us into a future where sustainability intertwines with innovation. But this narrative is not confined to the cold precision of circuits and structural frameworks; it extends its tendrils into the very heart of our homes—the kitchen. Thar's sands, infused with silicon, become the unseen chefs in our culinary endeavour. Smart appliances, guided by silicon's intelligence, elevate the act of cooking to an art form, where precision meets creativity, and tradition dances with innovation. On the wrist, the sands of Thar find expression in the elegance of smart watches. Beyond their temporal duty, these wearables become the companions of our daily lives, seamlessly integrating with the rhythm of our existence. Thar's sands, with their unique composition, inspire designs that transcend mere functionality, becoming statements of personal style in the ever-evolving tapestry of fashion and technology. Projectors, infused with the magic of Thar's silicon, redefine visual experiences. The once passive act of projection becomes an interactive symphony, where the virtual and the physical converge in a dance of light and shadow. High-resolution displays transform home theatres into cinematic realms, and professional settings into arenas of immersive engagement. Yet, this journey doesn't conclude with the marvels on the surface. It delves into the ethical and sustainable, where responsible resource management and fair labor practices become the guiding stars of technological progress. The sands of Thar, once perceived as an arid expanse, become the stage for a harmonious coexistence between human advancement and environmental preservation. As the pages unfold, envisage a future where the sands of Thar become the catalyst for a global collaboration that transcends geographical boundaries. A future where technological literacy, ethical considerations, and sustainable practices become the pillars of innovation. The alchemy of sands to silicon, to iron, to arsenic, to rare earth elements, and their subsequent metamorphosis into instruments, gadgets, and marvels, is a testament to the indomitable spirit of human curiosity and resilience. This book is an exploration, an invitation to traverse the sands of Thar not merely as arid landscapes but as repositories of untold potential. It is a celebration of the synergy between the elemental and the ethereal, where the mundane is transformed into the extraordinary. Join us on this odyssey—a journey from grains to grandeur, from sands to silicon dreams, and may the alchemy within these pages inspire the architect of tomorrow's technological marvels.

Book Synopsis America's Most Vulnerable Coastal Communities by : Joseph T. Kelley
Download or read book America's Most Vulnerable Coastal Communities written by Joseph T. Kelley and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sea level is rising, and yet Americans continue to develop beaches with little regard. In this volume, a group of coastal geologists discusses the startling saga of ten U.S. East and Gulf Coast shoreline communities (plus Puerto Rico and some western Europe strands) and the problems created by their inevitable interaction with natural processes in this highly dynamic geologic environment. The authors discuss the geologic context of the hazards of each site as the history of societal responses and their environmental impacts. Response to the natural coastal processes that threaten lives and buildings is carried out in a context of local, state and national politics with fixed short-term engineering solutions (beach replenishment, seawalls) generally favored over longer-term approaches (moving back, prohibition of seawalls). This essential GSA Special Paper foreshadows the impending rise of sea level and the myriad of shoreline responses and political controversies it will provoke."--Publisher's description.
