【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Kakuma Refugee Camp Humanitarian Urbanism in Kenya's Accidental City【電子書籍】[ Bram J. Jansen ]

＜p＞Kenya's Kakuma refugee camp is one of the world's largest, home to over 100,000 people drawn from across east and central Africa. Though notionally still a 'temporary' camp, it has become a permanent urban space in all but name with businesses, schools, a hospital and its own court system. Such places, Bram J. Jansen argues, should be recognised as 'accidental cities', a unique form of urbanization that has so far been overlooked by scholars.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, Jansen's book explores the dynamics of everyday life in such accidental cities. The result is a holistic socio-economic picture, moving beyond the conventional view of such spaces as transitory and desolate to demonstrate how their inhabitants can develop a permanent society and a distinctive identity. Crucially, the book offers important insights into one of the greatest challenges facing humanitarian and international development workers: how we might develop more effective strategies for managing refugee camps in the global South and beyond.＜/p＞ ＜p＞An original take on African urbanism, ＜em＞Kakuma Refugee Camp＜/em＞ will appeal to practitioners and academics across the social sciences interested in social and economic issues increasingly at the heart of contemporary development.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Western short story. According to Wikipedia: "Bret Harte (August 25, 1836[2] ? May 6, 1902) was an American author and poet, best remembered for his accounts of pioneering life in California. He was born in Albany, New York. ... He moved to California in 1853, later working there in a number of capacities, including miner, teacher, messenger, and journalist. He spent part of his life in the northern California coast town now known as Arcata, then just a mining camp on Humboldt Bay. His first literary efforts, including poetry and prose, appeared in The Californian, an early literary journal edited by Charles Henry Webb. In 1868 he became editor of The Overland Monthly, another new literary magazine, but this one more in tune with the pioneering spirit of excitement in California. His story, "The Luck of Roaring Camp," appeared in the magazine's second edition, propelling Harte to nationwide fame... Determined to pursue his literary career, in 1871 he and his family traveled back East, to New York and eventually to Boston, where he contracted with the publisher of The Atlantic Monthly for an annual salary of $10,000, "an unprecedented sum at the time." His popularity waned, however, and by the end of 1872 he was without a publishing contract and increasingly desperate. He spent the next few years struggling to publish new work (or republish old), delivering lectures about the gold rush, and even selling an advertising jingle to a soap company. In 1878 Harte was appointed to the position of United States Consul in the town of Krefeld, Germany and then to Glasgow in 1880. In 1885 he settled in London. During the thirty years he spent in Europe, he never abandoned writing, and maintained a prodigious output of stories that retained the freshness of his earlier work. He died in England in 1902 of throat cancer and is buried at Frimley."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】A Journey to Katmandu (the Capital of Napaul), with the Camp of Jung Bahadoor Enriched edition. Including a Sketch of the Nepaulese Ambassador at Home【電子書籍】[ Laurence Oliphant ]

＜p＞In "A Journey to Katmandu (the Capital of Napaul), with the Camp of Jung Bahadoor," Laurence Oliphant presents an evocative account of his travels in the mid-19th century, intertwining personal narrative with rich observations of Nepal's diverse cultures and landscapes. Written in a style that reflects the Victorian fascination with exploration, the text combines vivid descriptions with keen sociopolitical insights, illustrating the complex dynamics of British-Nepalese relations during a time of imperial expansion. Oliphant's poetic prose and attention to detail not only paint a portrait of Kathmandu's breathtaking beauty but also critique colonial attitudes and the exoticization of Eastern cultures prevalent in his day. Laurence Oliphant was not only a writer but also a diplomat and adventurer, which deeply informed his worldview and his literary voice. His experiences in various geopolitical contexts, particularly his role in the British diplomatic mission to Nepal, provided him with unique insights into the region's ethos and its peoples. Oliphant's travels were not merely adventures but explorations of identity, culture, and the nuanced interplay between Eastern and Western worlds. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in travel literature, Victorian narratives, or the cultural history of Nepal. Oliphant's work offers a historical lens through which one can appreciate the complexities of a rapidly changing globe, making it an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the broader implications of exploration and cultural exchange.

＜p＞The United States currently has the largest prison population on the planet. Over the last four decades, structural unemployment, concentrated urban poverty, and mass homelessness have also become permanent features of the political economy. These developments are without historical precedent, but not without historical explanation. In this searing critique, Jordan T. Camp traces the rise of the neoliberal carceral state through a series of turning points in U.S. history including the Watts insurrection in 1965, the Detroit rebellion in 1967, the Attica uprising in 1971, the Los Angeles revolt in 1992, and events in post-Katrina New Orleans in 2005. ＜em＞Incarcerating the Crisis＜/em＞ argues that these dramatic events coincided with the emergence of neoliberal capitalism and the state’s attempts to crush radical social movements. Through an examination of the poetic visions of social movementsーincluding those by James Baldwin, Marvin Gaye, June Jordan, Jos? Ram?rez, and Sunni Pattersonーit also suggests that alternative outcomes have been and continue to be possible.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Il occupait, rue de la Chaise, de vastes b?timens bien connus dans le peuple de Paris sous le nom de Petites-Maisons ; c’est l? qu’on enfermait les ?pileptiques et les fous. Une ordonnance pr?fectorale du 10 octobre 1801 l’a consacr? exclusivement aux veufs et veuves de soixante ans ayant v?cu au moins dix ann?es en m?nage, et aux ?poux qui r?unissent cent trente ans d’?ge, dont quinze pass?s en commun. Depuis 1863, la maison a ?t? reconstruite ? Issy dans des proportions grandioses, et elle peut passer actuellement pour un hospice mod?le. En dehors d’un mobilier d?termin? qu’il faut fournir, chaque pensionnaire doit payer par ann?e une somme de 200 fr., s’il est en dortoir, et de 300, s’il est en chambre ; on peut se soustraire ? cette obligation par un versement unique de 1,200 francs dans le premier cas et de 1,800 pour le second. Au 31 d?cembre 1869, la population des Petits-M?nages ?tait de 1,281 personnes ?g?es de soixante ? quatre-vingt-quinze ans.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞EXTRAIT:＜/p＞ ＜p＞En 1848, M. George d’Alfarey avait vingt-sept ans. C’?tait ce qu’on appelle dans le monde un jeune homme accompli. Une fortune convenable suffisait ? ses go?ts, et lui permettait de donner ? sa vie une ?l?gance s?rieuse et sans futilit?. D’une nature ind?pendante et l?g?rement sauvage, il n’avait choisi aucune carri?re ; mais, pour satisfaire aux exigences de son esprit curieux, il avait cherch? et trouv? dans l’?tude des langues un apaisement aux besoins de travail qui le tourmentaient : il avait ?t? l’un des auditeurs les plus assidus de Burnouf, et il ?tait en correspondance famili?re avec le docteur L… de Berlin. Ses amis se moquaient un peu de lui et l’avaient surnomm? George Pentec?te ; il les laissait rire et ne s’en penchait qu’avec plus d’ardeur sur les ?tranges alphabets que dessinent de leur calam les peuples de l’Asie.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Memoirs of Baron Lejeune, Aide-de-Camp to Marshals Berthier, Davout and Oudinot. Vol. II【電子書籍】[ G?n?ral de Brigade, Baron Louis-Fran?ois Lejeune ]

＜p＞Amongst the many memoirs of the Napoleonic period, there are a number that stand out not just for their historical value, but also for their actual written style, however in this sense Lejeune stands alone. Lejeune was by nature an artist and is still a famous as a noted painter of scenes of battles, most of which he witnessed. As such his scenes are like his painting filled with evocative detail.＜br /＞ The narrative in Vol. II runs from the Napoleon's divorce of the Empress Josephine and his subsequent marriage to Marie-Louise of Austria with the attendant balls and festivities. As the war in Spain drags on, he is sent on an important mission to collect information for the Emperor, during which he is ambushed and captured by partisans. His subsequent imprisonment and transfer to Britain are painted in vivid colours and are surpassed only by his subsequent escape to France and evasion of the dread smuggler "Brick".＜br /＞ Lejeune was on the staff of Marshal Berthier and, thereafter Marshal Davout, during the Russian campaign of 1812, and was witness to the bloody struggle to Moscow and the disastrous retreat back to Prussia. His numerous vignettes of the retreat are often quoted due to their detail and incisive nature, his description of his purchase of a bearskin from its unwilling seller, a colonel swaddled in furs, on the retreat is priceless.＜br /＞ Lejeune also served on in the twilight of the Empire, at the battles of L?tzen, Bautzen, and Leipzig. His military career was ended by wounds from a shell fragment the day after the battle of Hanau in 1813.＜br /＞ Lejeune was witness to some of the great events of the Napoleonic period, and moved with the grace of a courtier through them, his eye catches the human actors in his pen portraits beautifully.＜br /＞ Highly Recommended.＜br /＞ Author: G?n?ral de Brigade Baron Louis Franc?ois Lejeune, (1775-1848;)＜br /＞ Translator: Mrs Arthur Bell [D'Anvers, N.], ????-1933＜br /＞ Foreword: Major-General Maurice, John Frederick, Sir, 1841-1912＜br /＞ Annotations ?
