Fabian Couples, Feminist Issues

Fabian Couples, Feminist Issues
Reva Pollack Greenburg, "Fabian Couples, Feminist Issues "
English | ISBN: 1138390542 | 2018 | 428 pages | EPUB | 313 KB
In the three decades before the First World War, the relationship between socialism and feminism was both curious and convoluted. Despite strong theoretical links between these ideologies, class and sex seem to have inspired conflicting loyalties and opposing demands. In Britain, the uniquely middle-class, reform-minded Fabian Society might have been expected to bridge the gap between these movements. Yet, between 1884 and 1914, the Fabian Society's record on the "woman question" was highly inconsistent and, at times, overtly regressive. Originally published in 1987, this title looks at three of the most influential members, Sidney Webb, George Bernard Shaw and Hubert Bland and the women they were married to, who were also active in the Society.

Eyes, Ears, and Daggers Special Operations Forces and the Central Intelligence Agency in America's Evolving Struggle ag

Eyes, Ears, and Daggers Special Operations Forces and the Central Intelligence Agency in America's Evolving Struggle ag
Thomas H. Henriksen, "Eyes, Ears, and Daggers: Special Operations Forces and the Central Intelligence Agency in America's Evolving Struggle ag"
English | ISBN: 0817919740 | 2016 | 222 pages | EPUB | 563 KB
Both the Special Operations Forces (SOF) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) have served as the nation's eyes, ears, and daggers, often in close cooperation but occasionally at cross-purposes throughout their histories. In this book, Thomas H. Henriksen examines the warrior-spy connection both before and after the formation of the SOF and the CIA, suggesting that their history is notable for instances of cooperating, competing, circumventing, and even cutting each other out of the action before the 9/11 terrorist attacks brought about their present close alignment. Henriksen shows how, by adopting an intelligence-driven, targeted counterstrike weapon against terrorists, the United States went from a Cold War Goliath to a more nimble force, thanks largely to the SOF and CIA contributions. But their contemporary blending, he suggests, could be just a temporary realignment and that a return to their traditional rivalry is not out of the question. By revisiting and appreciating their respective histories before partnering to combat Islamist terrorism, he provides a clearer understanding of their interaction and offers lessons for the struggle against extremist violence.

Extraterritorial Dreams European Citizenship, Sephardi Jews, and the Ottoman Twentieth Century

Extraterritorial Dreams European Citizenship, Sephardi Jews, and the Ottoman Twentieth Century
Extraterritorial Dreams: European Citizenship, Sephardi Jews, and the Ottoman Twentieth Century by Sarah Abrevaya Stein
English | June 10, 2016 | ISBN: 022636819X, 022636822X | True EPUB | 240 pages | 4.6 MB
We tend to think of citizenship as something that is either offered or denied by a state. Modern history teaches otherwise. Reimagining citizenship as a legal spectrum along which individuals can travel, Extraterritorial Dreams explores the history of Ottoman Jews who sought, acquired, were denied or stripped of citizenship in Europe in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries-as the Ottoman Empire retracted and new states were born-in order to ask larger questions about the nature of citizenship itself.

Exporting Global Jihad Volume One Critical Perspectives from Africa and Europe
Tom Smith, "Exporting Global Jihad: Volume One: Critical Perspectives from Africa and Europe"
English | ISBN: 1788313305 | 2020 | 264 pages | EPUB | 469 KB
This timely 2 volume edited collection looks at the extent and nature of global jihad, focusing on the often-exoticised hinterlands of jihad beyond the traditionally viewed Middle Eastern 'centre'. As ISIS loses its footing in Syria and Iraq and al-Qaeda regroups this comprehensive account will be a key work in the on-going battle to better understand the dynamics of the jihads global reality. Critically examining the global reach of the jihad in these peripheries has the potential to tell us much about patterns of both local mobilisation, and local rejection of a grander centrally themed and administered jihad. Has the periphery been receptive to an exported jihad from the centre or does the local rooted cosmopolitanism of the jihad in the periphery suggest a more complex
