Citizen Participation in the Age of Contracting is based on a simple premise: in democracies, power originates with citizens.

Chronicle of Separation On Deconstruction's Disillusioned Love

Chronicle of Separation On Deconstruction's Disillusioned Love
Michal Ben-Naftali, Mirjam Hadar, Avital Ronell, "Chronicle of Separation: On Deconstruction's Disillusioned Love"
English | 2015 | ISBN: 0823265803, 082326579X | PDF | pages: 231 | 1.7 mb
A unique feminist approach to the legacy of Jacques Derrida, Chronicle of Separation is a disparate yet beautifully interwoven series of distinct readings, genres, and themes, offering a powerful reflection of love in―and as―deconstruction. Looking especially at relationships between women, Ben-Naftali provides a wide-ranging investigation of interpersonal relationships: the love of a teacher, the anxiety-ridden bond between a mother and daughter as manifested in anorexia, passion between two women, love after separation and in mourning, the tension between one's self and the internalized other. Traversing each of these investigations, Chronicle of Separation takes up Derrida's Memoires for Paul de Man and The Post Card, Lillian Hellman's famed friendship with a woman named Julia, and adaptations of the biblical Book of Ruth. Above all, it is a treatise on the love of theory in the name of poetry, a passionate book on love and friendship.

Chinese Workers in Comparative Perspective

Chinese Workers in Comparative Perspective
Anita Chan, "Chinese Workers in Comparative Perspective"
English | ISBN: 0801453496 | 2015 | 296 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
As the "world's factory" China exerts an enormous pressure on workers around the world. Many nations have had to adjust to a new global political and economic reality, and so has China. Its workers and its official trade union federation have had to contend with rapid changes in industrial relations. Anita Chan argues that Chinese labor is too often viewed from a prism of exceptionalism and too rarely examined comparatively, even though valuable insights can be derived by analyzing China's workforce and labor relations side by side with the systems of other nations.
