Sinopsis

Jungle Crafts Sell explores the intersection of traditional culture and modern commerce in Papua New Guinea, examining how tribal crafts navigate global markets. The book delves into the complexities of bartering systems transitioning to hard currency, highlighting the need for fair trade and cultural preservation. Discover how the commercialization of indigenous crafts impacts economic empowerment and sustainable development, and why understanding the cultural significance behind these crafts is vital for ethical sourcing. The book investigates the historical trade context, the mechanics of selling tribal crafts, and the socio-economic impacts on Papuan communities. Through field research and case studies, it analyzes both successful and unsuccessful ventures, providing practical recommendations for mutually beneficial partnerships. For instance, the book emphasizes community-led initiatives to ensure commercial activities benefit the Papuan people without destroying their unique cultural identity. Progressing from cultural context to market dynamics and sustainable strategies, the book offers insights for business professionals, policymakers, and consumers alike. It addresses debates surrounding cultural commercialization, advocating for a balanced approach that acknowledges both the potential benefits and risks, making it a valuable resource for understanding the challenges faced by indigenous communities worldwide.

    How did Britain become a nation seemingly resigned to its own indifference? In this sharp and entertaining critique, Theodore Dalrymple dissects the cultural decline through a series of observations of everyday slovenliness. From the paved-over front gardens that become car parks to the carelessness toward civic beauty, Dalrymple argues that a collective affection for what is held in common is eroding the nation's spirit. This book is a humorous, and sometimes acerbic, examination of modern Britain's peculiar ailment and how to restore civic pride and end performative behaviour.

    The fascinating story of the Red River Settlement, now Winnipeg, in the years 1813 to 1816, told with archival journals, reports, and letters
    		 
    Unsettled tells the story of two hundred Highlanders who flee the Scottish Clearances in 1813 to establish a settlement on the Red River in what eventually became Winnipeg. They are sponsored by the Earl of Selkirk, a man who has never been west of Montreal. Families who have never left their Highland crofts take an epic journey over ocean, up wild rivers, and through boundless wilderness, surviving disease and brutal winter only to face the determined opposition of fur barons who want no sodbusters threatening their trade and are prepared to stop at nothing to destroy their dream.
    		 
    The “empty” land they’ve been promised is also anything but, already occupied by First Nations bands and the beginnings of that proud nation soon to be called Métis, whom they must befriend or fight.
    		 
    Unsettled takes you inside the experience, relying on journals, reports, and letters to bring these days of soaring hope, crushing despair, and heroic determination to life — to bring their present into ours.
