very good dust-jacket, cover price $35.00, very good white hardcover. FOSL, CATHERINE. Subversive southerner: Anne Braden and the struggle for racial justice in the Cold War South. Foreword by Angela Davis. New York, N.Y. ; Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire, England: Palgrave Macmillan, 2002, stated First Edition, and 1st printing number line ending with 1, xxix, 418pp., . "Anne McCarty Braden (1924--2006) rejected her segregationist, privileged past to become one of the civil rights movement's staunchest white allies. In 1954 she was charged with sedition by McCarthy-style politicians who played on fears of communism to preserve southern segregation. Though Braden remained controversial -- even within the civil rights movement -- in 1963 she became one of only five white southerners whose contributions to the movement were commended by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in his famed "Letter from Birmingham Jail." Braden's activism ultimately spanned nearly six decades, making her one of the most enduring white voices against racism in modern U.S. history. Subversive Southerner is more than a riveting biography of an extraordinary southern white woman; it is also a social history of how racism, sexism, and anticommunism intertwined in the twentieth-century South as ripples from the Cold War divided the emerging civil rights movement." - CONTENTS: The Power of Place -- A White Southern Childhood -- Intellectual Awakening -- Alabama Newspaperwoman -- Political Awakening -- Marriage and Movement -- The Wade Case : No Turning Back -- Fighting Back : The 1950s Resistance Movement -- A Voice Crying in the Wilderness : Early SCEF Years -- The Mass Civil Rights Movement : Beginning of a New Day -- Opening Up the Southern Police State -- End of an Era -- The Next Three Decades: The Struggle Continues. 9780312294878 ISBN 0312294875.

Zustand: COME NUOVO. Basingstoke-New York, Palgrave Macmillan cm.15,5x23,5, pp.234, brossura, cop.fig.a col. Buon esempl. What do we mean when we talk about the body? This reader challenges the assumption that it can be invoked as a neutral, or indeed natural, point of reference in critical discussion or cultural practice. The essays collected here foreground the historical construction of the body throughout a range of discourses from the modern to the postmodern, and seek to present it not as a biological given, but as a contestable signifier in the articulation of identities.

fresh attractive copy, like new hardcover with printed covers. CROSS, SHARYL, ed. . Shaping South East Europe's security community for the twenty-first century: trust, partnership, integration. Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire ; New York, NY: Palgrave Macmillan Publishers Limited, 2013, xx, 225pp., . Edited by Sharyl Cross, associate professor of political science, San Jose State University, USA, Savo Kentera, president, Euro-Atlantic Club of Montenegro, R. Craig Nation, professor of military studies, Strategic Studies Institute, US Army War College, USA and Radovan Vukadinovic president, Atlantic Council of Croatia. - This book brings together leading academic specialists and policy practitioners to explore and develop cooperative approaches for managing critical contemporary and emerging security challenges for South East Europe and the wider international community. Including a range of contributors from South East European countries, the United States, and other interested regional parties, this book focuses upon trust, partnership, and a striving for more effective regional integration. In antithesis to traditional approaches to national security driven by the illusions of power and national egotism, this collection adopts what has become the dominant approach to security management in South East Europe today - an attempt to conceptualize and realize security in all of its aspects as a cooperative endeavour for the collective good. This book explores transnational challenges that will dominate the international security agenda in the years to come, in South East Europe and beyond. Issues considered include management of weapons of mass destruction, cyber security, transnational organized crime and corruption, violent extremism and terrorism, energy security, maritime security, economic development, and demographic change. - CONTENTS: 1.
