Climate-Drought Resilience in Extreme Environments

Climate-Drought Resilience in Extreme Environments

V. Ratna Reddy; Y. V. Malla Reddy; M. Srinivasa Reddy

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2020
sidottu
This book assesses the effectiveness of changes in watershed interventions in one of the most fragile resource regions of India. Specifically the chapters examine various watershed centred interventions and their implementation process. An evaluation of the livelihood impacts, including crop production on the communities, is discussed and an assessment of the drought and climate resilience of households in the context of watershed and related interventions, including institutions and capacity of the communities, is investigated. Lessons are drawn to further identify measures to strengthen and improvise interventions for enhanced climate-drought resilience in harsh environments.

The Work of Rape

The Work of Rape

Rana M. Jaleel

Duke University Press
2021
sidottu
In The Work of Rape Rana M. Jaleel argues that the redefinition of sexual violence within international law as a war crime, crime against humanity, and genocide owes a disturbing and unacknowledged debt to power and knowledge achieved from racial, imperial, and settler colonial domination. Prioritizing critiques of racial capitalism from women of color, Indigenous, queer, trans, and Global South perspectives, Jaleel reorients how violence is socially defined and distributed through legal definitions of rape. From Cold War conflicts in Latin America, the 1990s ethnic wars in Rwanda and Yugoslavia, and the War on Terror to ongoing debates about sexual assault on college campuses, Jaleel considers how legal and social iterations of rape and the terms that define it-consent, force, coercion-are unstable indexes and abstractions of social difference that mediate racial and colonial positionalities. Jaleel traces how post-Cold War orders of global security and governance simultaneously transform the meaning of sexualized violence, extend US empire, and disavow legacies of enslavement, Indigenous dispossession, and racialized violence within the United States.

America, It Was Just An Idea

America, It Was Just An Idea

Rayna M. Gangi

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2016
nidottu
Politics have always been a part of the idea of America. From its inception as an idea of a self-governing nation, America has evolved to a purely political idea versus the original idea by the people and for the people. This is one person's journey starting with the JFK assassination, through Nixon, Clinton and up to Trump. This story is one person's journey through the idea of Amerca and how the politics of the 60's and the JFK assassination began an interest in politics that grew to activism in 2016. The history is fact-based and the emotions surrounding the history are heartfelt and real. America, It Was Just an Idea is essential reading for students, parents, teachers and educators. It lets us remember our history, remember the idea of America, and remember how we got here.
