The Ends of Modernization

The Ends of Modernization

David Johnson Lee

Cornell University Press
2021
sidottu
The Ends of Modernization studies the relations between Nicaragua and the United States in the crucial years during and after the Cold War. David Johnson Lee charts the transformation of the ideals of modernization, national autonomy, and planned development as they gave way to human rights protection, neoliberalism, and sustainability. Using archival material, newspapers, literature, and interviews with historical actors in countries across Latin America, the United States, and Europe, Lee demonstrates how conflict between the United States and Nicaragua shaped larger international development policy and transformed the Cold War. In Nicaragua, the backlash to modernization took the form of the Sandinista Revolution which ousted President Anastasio Somoza Debayle in July 1979. In the wake of the earlier reconstruction of Managua after the devastating 1972 earthquake and instigated by the revolutionary shift of power in the city, the Sandinista Revolution incited radical changes that challenged the frankly ideological and economic motivations of modernization. In response to threats to its ideological dominance regionally and globally, the United States began to promote new paradigms of development built around human rights, entrepreneurial internationalism, indigenous rights, and sustainable development. Lee traces the ways Nicaraguans made their country central to the contest over development ideals beginning in the 1960s, transforming how political and economic development were imagined worldwide. By illustrating how ideas about ecology and sustainable development became linked to geopolitical conflict during and after the Cold War, The Ends of Modernization provides a history of the late Cold War that connects the contest between the two then-prevailing superpowers to trends that shape our present, globalized, multipolar world.

Some say it never should happen, but it does. Any Christian, church leader, or Christian organization head can, from no apparent cause, suddenly find their soul in a desert place. It is confusing, frustrating, causes doubts, and feels like being saved and lost simultaneously. What generates this standstill in faith? How can motivation disappear in serving Christ? This book examines reasons for the desert dilemma, takes one through the strides to understanding the condition, and points to the changes that can lift one up to a renewed normal commitment to the Lord. Pastors and ministry leaders are on the menu first, but the final course is help for all believers. Go inside and see.

Jesus Christ is the most written about and proclaimed figure of all of history. Why, then, are people so confused as to who He is? Why are Christian churches redefining Him to suit the culture and their own preferences? This book challenges the idea of a Jesus remake. It is the author's understanding of Him from well over sixty-five years of a personal relationship and study. It aims toward those who have given up on Jesus, because the portrayal of Him has been disfigured. Want a fresh review of the Bible's portrait of the Savior, with angles seldom considered and truth carefully examined? If you discover the right Jesus, your life might never be the same.

Poetry. "David Dodd Lee's Abrupt Rural is as exquisite as it is excruciating, though in a matter-of-fact, even understated way; it surprised me with its afterburn, and left me disoriented and oddly happy"--Claire Bateman.

I carry memories of innocence, happiness, joy and at times pain, hurt and loss. They have made me who I am. I have re-traced the footprints that I could find, and I have put them into words. My greatest hope is that, in reading this book, you may be reminded of the special times in your life too, even if some of them were difficult. I know that all of us have stories from our youth. These footprints and stories are mine.
