        Science and society in southern Africa

        by Saul Dubow

        This collection, dealing with case studies drawn from South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Mauritius, examines the relationship between scientific claims and practices, and the exercise of colonial power. It challenges conventional views that portray science as a detached mode of reasoning with the capacity to confer benefits in a more or less even-handed manner. That science has the potential to further the collective good is not fundamentally at issue, but science can also be seen as complicit in processes of colonial domination. Not only did science assist in bolstering aspects of colonial power and exploitation, it also possessed a significant ideological component: it offered a means of legitimating colonial authority by counter-poising Western rationality to native superstition and it served to enhance the self-image of colonial or settler elites in important respects. This innovative volume ranges broadly through topics such as statistics, medicine, eugenics, agriculture, entomology and botany.

        The Moscow Factor: US Policy toward Sovereign Ukraine and the Kremlin

        by Eugene M. Fishel

        24 February 2022 was not the beginning of Russia's war on Ukraine. Back in 2014, Russia illegally annexed Crimea from Ukraine, bolstered a separatist conflict in the Donbas region, and attacked Ukraine with units of its regular army and special forces. In each instance of Russian aggression, the U.S. response has often been criticized as inadequate, insufficient, or hesitant. The Moscow Factor: U.S. Policy toward Sovereign Ukraine and the Kremlin is a unique study that examines four key Ukraine-related policy decisions across two Republican and two Democratic U.S. administrations. Author Eugene M. Fishel asks whether, how, and under what circumstances Washington has considered Ukraine’s status as a sovereign nation in its decision-making regarding relations with Moscow. This study situates the stance of the United States toward Ukraine in the broader context of international relations. It fills an important lacuna in existing scholarship and policy discourse by focusing on the complex trilateral—rather than simply bilateral—dynamics among the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia, in 1991–2016. This book brings together for the first time documentary evidence and declassified materials dealing with policy deliberation, retrospective articles authored by former policymakers, and formal memoirs by erstwhile senior officials. The study is also supplemented by open-ended interviews with former and returning officials.

        Betrachtungen und Erinnerungen eines Freundes

        by Georges Clemenceau, Hannah Szàsz, Gottfried Boehm

        Georges Clemenceau, »le tigre«, einer der wichtigsten französischen Politiker des Jahrhundertbeginns und der Zeit des Ersten Weltkriegs, war mit dem Maler eng befreundet. Auf der Basis dieser Beziehung schrieb er ein Buch, das nicht nur eine exemplarische Freundschaft zwischen dem Mann der Weltpolitik und dem Maler des Gartens von Giverny dokumentiert, sondern die erste adäquate Würdigung vor allem des Spätwerkes, die Zeit der »Seerosenbilder«. Es ist ein in der Geschichte der Kunstkritik einzigartiges Dokument und immer noch eine Wegleitung zur Welt des Künstlers.

        Irvine Welsh

        by Aaron Kelly, Daniel Lea

        Irvine Welsh's fiction has defined an era, and this first full-length study provides a sustained textual and contextual analysis of all his work, from 'Trainspotting' and 'The Acid House' to 'Glue' and 'Porno'. A detailed chronological survey also considers the appropriateness of cultural, postmodern and postcolonial theories to Welsh's incendiary fiction. Kelly gives a fascinating insight into the writer's formal and political ambitions, placing him in the context of the 'brat pack' which exploded onto the Scottish literary scene in the 1990s. He explores the social, class and political conditioning of Welsh's early life, and its impact on his motivations for writing. Clearly written and accessible, this will be a key resource for students and academics alike. Choose 'Irvine Welsh'! ;

        Stilübungen

        by Raymond Queneau, Ludwig Harig, Eugen Helmlé, Ludwig Harig

        Für diese im übrigen unveränderte Neuausgabe des artistischen Bestsellers hat Ludwig Harig ein Nachwort Auf dem pataphysischen Hochseil – Zur Übersetzung der ›Stilübungen‹ von Raymond Queneau geschrieben: »Im Jahr 1947 erschien Raymond Queneaus Exercices de Style bei Gallimard in Paris. Die Geschichte ihrer Übersetzung ins Deutsche, eng verknüpft mit dem experimentellen Aufbruch der Nachkriegspoesie, reicht in die fünfziger Jahre zurück. Von Kindheit an mehr spielals lernbesessen, neugierig auf waghalsige Versuche, mißtrauisch gegenüber bewährten Kunstwerken, war ich lüstern nach Neuem … Elisabeth Walther ermutigte mich mit einem Zitat von Francis Ponge: ›Nur die Literatur erlaubt, das große Spiel zu spielen: die Welt neu zu machen‹ –, und darauf hatte ich es mit meinem Freund Eugen Helmlé abgesehen. Risikofreudig, ja todesmutig, wie sich später einige Kritiker ausdrückten, machten wir uns an die Arbeit. Die Übersetzung der Exercices de Style war ein Drahtseilakt: Raymond Queneau turnte ihn uns vor, wie es einst nur Till Eulenspiegel zustande gebracht hat …«
