Patterns of Im/mobility Conflict and Identity

Patterns of Im/mobility Conflict and Identity

Patterns of im/mobility collective identity and conflict are highly entangled. The im/mobility of a social or cultural group has major impact on how identity narratives a sense of belonging and relationships to ‘others’ are shaped and vice versa. These dynamics are closely interlinked with mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion between groups and power structures that involve a broad variety of actors from local populations to migrants government institutions and other intermediaries. Mainly looking at patterns of internal mobility such as ‘traditional’ or strategic mobilities and mobilities enforced by crisis conflict or governmental programmes and regimes this book aims to go beyond currently predominant issues of transnational migration. Dynamics of non/integration and belonging caused by im/mobility are analysed on a cultural and political level which involves questions of representation indigeneity/autochthony political rights and access to land and other resources. With ethnographic case studies from Kosovo Sierra Leone Liberia Bangladesh East Timor and Indonesia this volume provides a comparative perspective on the multifold dimensions of im/mobility in contexts where changing mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion trigger or settle conflicts and social identities are constantly re/negotiated. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Social Identities. | Patterns of Im/mobility Conflict and Identity

Reading to Write: A Textbook of Advanced Chinese

Reading to Write: A Textbook of Advanced Chinese

Traditionally reading and writing are believed to be separate but related language processes and teachers follow the conventional wisdom of teaching in-depth reading with writing as a tag-on issue. Therefore there exists an increasingly urgent call for a well-rounded reading-writing curriculum and a theoretically-informed empirically-based student-centered advanced textbook that aims to develop the synergy between reading and writing. Reading to Write: A Textbook of Advanced Chinese is intended to fill this significant gap. It treats reading and writing as integrative parts and interactive skills in Chinese language teaching putting them hand-in-hand supplementing each other.

Export Dependence versus the New Protectionism Constraints on Trade Policy in the Industrial World

Export Dependence versus the New Protectionism Constraints on Trade Policy in the Industrial World

In an international political economy characterised both by constancy and change this study first published in 1996 links together one seemingly incongruous continuity in international trade relations with an increasingly dramatic development in the economies of industrial countries. On the one hand industrialised countries have become progressively dependent upon one another. On the other hand the liberal international trade regime has yet to falter. These two points are tied together by seeking to explain the maintenance of liberal trade relations in terms of the mutual economic dependence of industrial countries. In particular the study examines what may be a fundamental constraint on trade protectionism today: the reliance of industrialised countries on external trade relations and especially on markets within the industrial world. | Export Dependence versus the New Protectionism Constraints on Trade Policy in the Industrial World

First Published in 1951 The Monarch of Wit presents John Donne’s poetry in its proper context. The chief purpose of the book is to enable the reader to approach Donne’s poetry without preconceptions of what ‘metaphysical’ poetry is or ought to be.

How much of Donne’s poetry may be appropriately described as metaphysical as personal or autobiographical or as the expression of what has been called a unified sensibility? This book is a must read for scholars and researchers of English poetry English literature and European literature. | The Monarch of Wit An Analytical and Comparative Study of the Poetry of John Donne
