Beschreibung

In "Indian Wars in North Carolina," Enoch Lawrence Lee presents a meticulously crafted account of the conflicts between Native American tribes and European settlers in the southeastern United States. His narrative intricately captures the socio-political dynamics of the period, interweaving vivid historical accounts with rich cultural context. Employing a blend of primary sources, such as letters and military reports, alongside his analytical commentary, Lee's work stands as both a historical record and a critical exploration of colonial expansion and its repercussions for Native populations. This book not only sheds light on specific battles and treaties but also delves into the broader implications of these conflicts on regional identity and the historical narrative of the United States. Enoch Lawrence Lee, a scholar with roots in both North Carolina and Native American studies, draws upon his extensive research to illuminate the often-overlooked complexities of these early American conflicts. His academic background and deep respect for indigenous history inform his nuanced perspective, allowing him to challenge prevailing narratives and illustrate the resilience of Native communities amid adversity. Lee'Äôs dedication to uncovering the truth behind these historical events speaks to a broader commitment to addressing the legacies of colonialism. "Indian Wars in North Carolina" is a vital read for those interested in American history, Native studies, and the impact of colonialism on indigenous peoples. Lee'Äôs engaging prose and thorough scholarship ensure that readers will emerge with a deeper understanding of the historical landscape of North Carolina and the poignant stories of its Native inhabitants. This book is an essential addition to both academic and personal libraries, encouraging readers to reflect critically on the broader narratives of American history.

    Living With My Century - A Memoir

    Professor Eda Sagarra, born in 1933, has been a significant and influential figure in Irish and European academic policy-making, contributing to the early development of the Erasmus scheme. Now, aged nearly 88, this memoir gives striking evidence of her self-discipline and formidable energy. This substantial memoir by one of the foremost female academics in Ireland starts with Sagarra's own perspective on committing her life story to history during the pandemic lockdown of 2020:
    The following memoir recalls for those born in the present century and schooled without the strong sense of Irish history, which defined our people from the Great Famine of the 1840s until recent times, what it was like to grow up as a woman in the twentieth century and seek a career in a man's world. It tries to re-capture as much what it felt like to the person experiencing it as what was happening in society. Younger people today who read of the restrictions to which women were subject in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, will find it difficult to comprehend why our generation and the one that followed ours didn't challenge them. But probably the greatest contrast between the Ireland of then and now was the room for manoeuvre – or rather the absence of it. Today our lives are premised on a constantly changing world. Ireland is more connected across the globe than ever it was. Today most people are mobile. The Ireland when I was young was in almost every respect a static, hierarchical and paternalist society, one in which the accident of your birth would generally determine your whole life. No life is representative, but every person's experience is unique and worth recording for those who come after us. 
    A south Dublin convent girl, Sagarra probes childhood and family, schooling, and UCD — with a perceptive commentary on the Ireland of the 1930s and 1940s. Her remarkable memory and shrewd eye for detail present at times a painfully honest account of family and in the upper middle-class world of Catholic south Dublin, revealing the profound influence of Europe during her postgraduate years in post-war Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
    Running through this forensic account of her academic life is a keen awareness of the constant if subtle barriers to female advancement.
    
    For contemporary critics reconstructing the history of gender equality in Ireland and for readers of feminist history, this makes for essential reading. Her description of retirement since 1998 is colourful, poignant and revealing, and her reflections on old age and youth resonate.

    The first major study of how the pandemic affected gig workers—a sociological exploration that reads like a novel. 
     
     
      
    This is the story of what the most vulnerable wage earners—gig workers, restaurant staff, early-career creatives, and minimum-wage laborers—do when the economy suddenly collapses. In Side Hustle Safety Net, Alexandrea J. Ravenelle builds on interviews with nearly two hundred gig-based and precarious workers, conducted during the height of the pandemic, to uncover the unique challenges they faced in unprecedented times. 
     
     
      
    This book looks at both the officially unemployed and the "forgotten jobless"—a digital-era demographic that turned to side hustles—and reveals how they fared. CARES Act assistance allowed some to change careers, start businesses, perhaps transform their lives. However, gig workers and those involved in "polyemployment" found themselves at the mercy of outdated unemployment systems, vulnerable to scams, and attempting dubious survival strategies. Ultimately, Side Hustle Safety Net argues that the rise of the gig economy, partnered with underemployment and economic instability, has increased worker precarity with disastrous consequences.
