The Young C.l.r. James

The Young C.l.r. James

PM Press
2018
nidottu
The son of a provincial school administrator in British-governed Trinidad, James disappointed his family by embracing the culture and passions of the colonial underclass. He joined the literary avant-garde of the island before leaving for Britain. In the UK, James swiftly became a beloved cricket journalist, playwright for his close friend Paul Robeson, and a pathbreaking scholar of black history with The Black Jacobins, the first history of the Haitian revolt. The artistic skills of Milton Knight, at once acute and provocative, bring out James's unique personality, how it arose, and how he became a world figure.

An Analysis of C.L.R. James's The Black Jacobins

An Analysis of C.L.R. James's The Black Jacobins

Today we take it for granted that history is much more than the story of great men and the elites from which they spring. Other forms of history – the histories of gender, class, rebellion and nonconformity – add much-needed context and color to our understanding of the past. But this has not always been so. In CLR James’s The Black Jacobins, we have one of the earliest, and most defining, examples of how ‘history from below’ ought to be written. James's approach is based on his need to resolve two central problems: to understand why the Haitian slave revolt was the only example of a successful slave rebellion in history, and also to grasp the ways in which its history was intertwined with the history of the French Revolution. The book's originality, and its value, rests on its author's ability to ask and answer productive questions of this sort, and in the creativity with which he proved able to generate new hypotheses as a result. As any enduring work of history must be, The Black Jacobins is rooted in sound archival research – but its true greatness lies in the originality of James's approach.

At America’s premier research lab in New Mexico the race is on to create a limitless source of clean energy before it can become a deadly beam weapon. Dr. Alek Spray and his team are on the verge of a breakthrough in the development of complex pulse-beam technology that uses the physics of a Low Energy Nuclear Reaction, also known as cold fusion, to create clean energy. An accident and the disappearance of two of the team’s members not only shows that the technology can work, but reveals threats not only to the project, but to the United States. Alek, along with FBI Agent Gabi Stebbens, lead a team that must discover the secret of LENR and who else is trying to harness this new technology. Their investigation takes them to Mexico and China as they discover a plot of intrigue, money, and power as a rogue Chinese general, funded by drug-cartel money, tries to harness the power of this new technology into the Dragon’s CLAW, a new space-based weapon of unparalleled power. If they cannot stop the weapon a new arms race will tear down the fragile American-Chinese relations, and Alek’s dream of creating cheap, clean energy will come to an end.

The Polemics of C.L.R. James and Contemporary Black Activism

The Polemics of C.L.R. James and Contemporary Black Activism

Ornette D. Clennon

Springer International Publishing AG
2016
sidottu
This book draws on case examples of contemporary black activism in South Manchester and contrasts them with events that surrounded C.L.R. James and his activism between 1935 and 1950. In doing so, the author considers what Brexit, the Labour Party and Theresa May’s audit on racism in the UK have in common with the wartime decline of the British Empire, the rise and fall of the trade unions and the Italian invasion of Ethiopia. Clennon dialogues with James’ theoretical frameworks around capitalism, neoliberalism and post-colonialism, and uses this creative interplay of ideas to help make sense of contemporary events and issues of social justice from a UK ethnic minority perspective. Using Fanon, Gordon, Marx and Chakrabarty amongst others, the study explores James’ take on dialectical materialism and uses this as an ongoing analytical tool throughout the volume with which he weaves an uneasy path between post-colonial and post-Marxist theories. The Polemics of C.L.R. Jamesand Contemporary Black Activism will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of social science disciplines, including sociology, cultural studies, education and black studies.

Coastal Lagoon Eutrophication and ANaerobic Processes (C.L.E.AN.)

Coastal Lagoon Eutrophication and ANaerobic Processes (C.L.E.AN.)

Springer
1996
sidottu
This multidisciplinary volume comprehensively reviews our current knowledge of the effects of urban, industrial and agricultural pollution on the biology of shallow coastal marine lagoons. All the authors are internationally recognized authorities and have had many years of experience in their respective fields. The major strength of this volume is that it integrates several fields of research including biogeochemistry, marine microbiology, marine algology and marine zoology. By adopting such a strategy the reader is provided with a clear insight of the key processes involved in lagoon eutrophication and dystrophy and their impact on the different biological communities which live in such environments. This book will therefore provide an essential reference work for environmental biologists, ecologists, microbiologists and those involved in the management and commercial exploitation of these economically important ecosystems.
