The Liberal Project and the Transformation of Democracy

The Liberal Project and the Transformation of Democracy

Sabrina Petra Ramet

Texas A M University Press
2007
sidottu
Students of democratic theory have watched the dramatic transformation of Eastern Europe from communism to various forms of democracy in the last two decades. With her unique blend of theory and empirical analysis, veteran observer Sabrina P. Ramet offers clear insight into the processes, challenges, and accomplishments of this area. Drawing on a classical understanding of ""liberalism"" based on a philosophy of Natural Law, she probes the issues of capitalism, national sovereignty and self-determination, gender inequality, and political legitimacy in the context of Eastern Europe's particular experience. She also explores the limitations of classical liberalism and argues for the extension of liberal principles to encompass the rights of women and protection of all species as well as the environment. Political theorists, political scientists, students of Eastern Europe, and those interested in the larger questions of political philosophy will be richly rewarded in their reading of this volume by a renowned scholar of Eastern European politics.

A Kettle of Vultures

A Kettle of Vultures

Sabrina Lamb

Strebor Books
2010
pokkari
Written with humorous abandon by popular satirist, former stand-up comic, and media commentator Sabrina Lamb, A Kettle of Vultures is a fictional romp which exposes the acerbic thoughts of image consultant Iris Chapman, her dysfunctional family, socially maladjusted clients, magical friends, and her adventurous journey toward self-acceptance.Unbeknownst to Iris Chapman, the Atlanta-based image consultant, a kettle of low-flying vultures convenes overhead as she boards the flight home to Opa Locka on the day of her brother’s controversial wedding. Following their customary bear hugs, Iris’ eccentric family launches into the inquisition, the visual and vocal assessment of Iris’ physical appearance. Iris is already attacked daily by her own inquisition, questioning her very existence. Self-acceptance is a long journey and it’s unclear whether or not she’ll get there as she attempts to seduce an uninterested man, moves cities, loses clients, and meets a man she’s not sure she can trust. Will Iris survive the onslaught by the vulturous characters in her life? Will her octogenarian grandmother, her superstitious mother who denunciates anything nappy, her hermit-like father, and irritating clients, push Iris over the edge of her own sanity? Will she learn to accept herself?

Our Lady Of Birth Control

Our Lady Of Birth Control

Sabrina Jones

Soft Skull Press
2016
nidottu
Working class nurse. Mother of three. Labor organizer. Margaret Sanger--best known as the pioneer of birth control--was revolutionary in more ways than one. In Sabrina Jones's graphic novel Our Lady of Birth Control, the author illustrates the incredible life of Margaret Sanger (1879-1966), framing the biography with her personal experiences of coming of age at the height of the sexual revolution. During her lifetime, Sanger transformed herself from working class nurse to an exuberant free-lover and savvy manipulator of the media, the law, and her wealthy supporters. Through direct action, propaganda, exile, and imprisonment, she ultimately succeeded in bringing legal access to birth control to women of all classes. Sanger's revolutionary actions established organizations that eventually evolved into Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Jones's autobiographical sections of Our Lady of Birth Control show her journey into activist art in response to the anti-feminist backlash of the Reagan era. From street theater and protest graphics to alternative comics, her path similarly follows in Margaret's footsteps, encountering versions of the same adversaries.Her striking imagery evokes the late 20th century, recalling the ashcan artists of The Masses, an acclaimed magazine of Sanger's formative years. Powerful, poetic, and extremely personal, this historical graphic novel is an in-depth look at the woman responsible for bringing freedom to the masses.

Salman Rushdie

Salman Rushdie

Sabrina Hassumani

Fairleigh Dickinson University Press
2002
sidottu
This is a close textual analysis of Rushdie’s five major novels: Midnight’s Children, Shame, The Satanic Verses, Haroun and the Sea of Stories, and The Moor’s Last Sigh. Rushdie recognizes that practicing identity politics leads to nativism and nationalism, categories he rejects because they merely invert the colonizer/colonized binary, leaving violent hierarchies intact. His impulse is to deconstruct the colonizer/colonized binary and in doing so to clear a `new’ postmodern space. This text employs post-structuralist/ postmodern theory not only to address the issues of representation that Rushdie raises in his major political novels, but also to facilitate a discussion of the manner in which he pushes the boundaries of the modern novel.

Child, Get Up

Child, Get Up

Sabrina Nichole Gilchrist

Library Partners Press
2019
pokkari
Family Secrets. Trauma. Unquestioned Religious Devotion. Mental Illness. Imagine debilitating depression and anxiety, and multiple suicide attempts. Imagine an unhealthy fear of God that later blossoms into humble gratitude for Spirit. With honesty and transparency, Sabrina Nichole shares her experience of living with mental illness and faith. The irony of the story is her professional identity as a licensed therapist and an ordained minister with an unorthodox spirituality that sometimes borders the irreverent. CHILD, GET UP is a story of resilience that dramatically says, "Physician, heal thyself" with one breath, and "Amen, it is so" with the next.

"The water is murky. Sand and grit stir it up, making it difficult for the giant predator with the 6-foot-tall sail on his back to see. He lowers his mouth into the water, his high nostrils allowing him to breathe easily while the pits on his snout feel for pressure and sense for fish swimming nearby.Nothing moves, or at least nothing worth attempting to catch. The large theropod-Spinosaurus-wades into the water. Tired from balancing his long head and neck with his short back legs, Spinosaurus relaxes as he submerges like a crocodile, flexing his flat, webbed feet in the water." In the golden age of dinosaur discoveries, paleontologists are frequently learning about new dinosaurs and new facts about already known species. At least 14 dinosaurs made the headlines in 2014 alone.
