The book offers a novel lens to situate Europeanisation as violence – through institutions and technologies of development, cultural heritage, and borders, among others – by bringing South and East within a relational frame. Through four inter-related sections, it foregrounds Europeanisation as infrastructural violence and colonial asymmetries, slow violence and the construction of stratified subalternities, epistemic dispossession, and border epistemologies.

In a world of violence in which religion seems to play an increasing role, the understanding of the Religions of the Book, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, is highly important. This book concentrates on these religions, all with common ancestry, that claim their mandates come from a holy text. These religions are embodied in both a text and a political purpose associated with a contentious nationalism and internationalism. Chan indicates their commonalities, especially in the political realm, but also their approaches to conflict with one another, within themselves, and with others who do not have a centralizing Book.

Certains évoquent un pays où la violence est profondément enracinée dans la société, un pays où l'histoire est marquée par le métier des armes. Des chefs de guerre, par leurs actions militaires, ravagent tout sur leur passage, traçant l'ombre d'une nation condamnée.Pourtant, très peu parviennent à mettre en lumière les traits téméraires et courageux d'un peuple tchadien qui a su endurer non seulement l'environnement impitoyable du Sahara, mais aussi les affres de la colonisation, tout en traversant les bouleversements politiques, culturels et militaires imposés par les cavaliers musulmans. Cet ensemble complexe a donné naissance à une stratégie militaire unique qui résonne bien au-delà des frontières.

Militärische Multinationalität in Europa behandelt die Zusammenarbeit von Streitkräften auf einzigartige Weise: Nicht nur bietet das Buch erstmals einen umfassenden und aktuellen Überblick über die Formen militärischer Zusammenarbeit, es entwickelt mit der Unterscheidung multinationaler Strukturen, Prozesse und Aktivitäten zudem einen theoriegeleiteten und doch intuitiven Analyserahmen zur Untersuchung von Streitkräftekooperation. Der Frage, welche Motive zur Aufstellung multinationaler Formate führen, nähert sich die Autorin mit der empirisch belegten Erkenntnis, dass die Kooperation von Streitkräften nicht nur einer strategischen Logik folgt, sondern auch durch eine Vielzahl politischer Faktoren bestimmt ist. Diese Studie ist somit ein aktuelles Referenzwerk für ein äußerst komplexes Phänomen.

The study explores the novel's settings, from Sodeni and Govié to the Upper Savannah and the United States, highlighting the symbiotic relationship between place and identity. It explores Amadou Ouédraogo's use of evocative symbols and metaphors that echo prevalent themes in African literature, including dual identity and post-colonial reckonings, and the emblematic theme of return. The analysis contextualizes the novel within contemporary African literary theory, establishing meaningful connections with seminal thinkers such as Frantz Fanon, Aimé Césaire, and Ngugi wa Thiong'o. Through multiple theoretical frameworks, including autoethnography, Neo-Fanonism, and Mircea Eliade's conceptualization of sacred and cyclical time, the study positions Les larmes des racines as a significant contribution to African literature, African studies, anthropology, and the broader humanities.

An anthology of original essays that examine white supremacy around the globe through the lens of anthropologyWhite supremacy, an entrenched global system that emerged alongside European colonialism, is based on presumed biological and cultural differences, racist practices, the hypervaluation of whiteness, and the devaluation of nonwhites. Anthropology has been shaped by—and has helped to shape—white supremacy, yet the discipline also offers powerful tools for understanding this system at a global scale. The Anthropology of White Supremacy gathers original essays from a diverse, international group of anthropologists to explore how this phenomenon works both within anthropology and in cultural and political structures around the world.The book features historical and ethnographic analysis about Brazil, Iceland, Japan, Mexico, Nigeria, Palestine, Senegal, South Africa, and the United States, and addresses the ways white supremacy impacts a broad range of issues, including finance, advertising and media representations, militarism, police training, migration, and development.The Anthropology of White Supremacy demonstrates not only how anthropology can help us to better comprehend white supremacy, but also how the discipline can help us begin to dismantle it.The contributors include Omolade Adunbi, Samar Al-Bulushi, Aisha M.
