Sinossi

Sand Hills Hunt explores the dynamic relationship between the San people of Southern Africa, their traditional hunting practices, and the growing influence of the wage economy. This study examines how globalization and economic change impact indigenous livelihoods, revealing the complex ways the San balance cultural identity with new economic realities. Interestingly, the book highlights how hunting, while economically significant, also plays a crucial role in maintaining social cohesion and transmitting cultural knowledge.

 
The book presents an in-depth look at the San's economic adaptation strategies, detailing their involvement in various forms of wage labor and the challenges they face. Rejecting the idea of simple cultural loss, it argues that the San creatively blend hunting with wage labor to create hybrid livelihoods.

 
Beginning with an introduction to the San's history and hunting practices, the book progresses to analyze wage labor opportunities and culminates in an examination of the strategies used to sustain their cultural identity amidst economic pressures, offering valuable insights into indigenous communities worldwide.

    "To perceive 'what is' is the basis of truth," 7 February 1971. Duration: 86 minutes.
    Where there is division, there must be conflict. A mind in conflict must inevitably be distorted, and therefore it cannot possibly see clearly what is truth.
    
    We need a total change, a deep revolution, psychological revolution, the inward revolution, without which you cannot possibly create a new society. Is it possible to observe, to perceive without the observer?
    
    How are images formed? Can the image building come to an end? Knowledge is absolutely necessary. Is it possible that knowledge, which the brain has accumulated through centuries, does not interfere with relationships?
    
    "Direct perception is freedom," 10 February 1971. Duration: 80 minutes.
    Can the mind living in this world ever be free, not only superficially but profoundly, at the very root of its existence? 'Freedom from' is an abstraction, but freedom in observing 'what is' and going beyond it is actual freedom.
    
    How do I observe greed? Do I observe it as an outsider looking in, or do I observe it without the observer? Without the mind being free, you cannot live in order. Three years have passed; I have no energy to be aware of my reactions. Can we seek God through observation?
    
    "Love is that quality of mind in which there is no division," 14 February 1971. Duration: 89 minutes.
    To live in this world with intelligence, in spite of all the complications. Is it possible to be free of fear, not only the superficial fear in relationship but the deep-rooted fear? Thought nourishes, sustains and gives continuity to fear and pleasure.
    
    When you are learning, your mind is awake. Truth isn't second-hand; you can't get it through a guru, a book; you have to learn about it. The beauty of learning is that you don't know what truth is.
    
    What is love? A man who has not love in his heart but the things made by thought will make a monstrous world, will construct a society that is totally immoral. To find out, you must undo everything that you have done.
    
    What does it mean to die?
    
    "A mind in meditation is concerned only with meditation, not with the meditator," 17 February 1971. Duration: 87 minutes.
    If you can put aside your favourite systems, if you can understand that concentration is merely a resistance and therefore constant conflict and wastage of energy, then we can find out for ourselves what is necessary for a mind that is in a state of meditation. To learn about oneself, a living thing, you have to watch, learn anew each minute.
    
    What is will? Consciousness is heritage, the result of time. Consciousness is the content of itself, which is time, sorrow, confusion, misery. Intelligence has no heritage.
    
    What is a mind that is completely silent? How does one cope with the extraordinary energy that human beings have?

    Meaning - A Very Short Introduction

    Our ability to find meaning in things is one of the most important aspects of human life. But it is also one of the most mysterious. Where does meaning come from? What sorts of things have meaning? And how do we grasp the meaning others want to convey? Meaning: A Very Short Introduction is shaped by exploring possible answers to these questions. 
     
     
     
    Human societies have one particularly important device for expressing and sharing meaning: language. Since our words are paradigm examples of things which have meaning, in this book, Emma Borg and Sarah Fisher use meaning in language as a case study for exploring meaning more generally. They focus on three possible sources for word meaning: things in the world, things in the mind, and social practices, exploring the key approaches thinkers have put forward in each of these arenas. Finally, they end by looking at some concrete applications of the ideas and approaches introduced in the book.

    In an era of traditional political party decline, this book explores a new phase of nativist mobilization, in which street politics plays an increasingly important role. Movement parties offer an exceptional object of study since they challenge the conventional distinction between institutional and non-institutional politics. Examining the "production structure" of ten movement parties across nine European countries, the authors identify key factors that affect their engagement in protest activity. They address the organizational capacity, decision-making processes, and external mobilization of these collective actors using unique empirical material, including quantitative data on far-right protest mobilization spanning over a decade, protest network visualizations, and qualitative interviews with high-ranking officials. 
     
     
     
    The book provides fresh insights into how the far right spreads its influence and relates to non-institutional politics, making it essential for anyone concerned about the way in which nativist collective actors transform society from the ground up. A compelling study looking at the relationship between electoral politics and grassroots activism, Movement Parties of the Far Right illuminates the complex organizational and strategic choices underlying far-right mobilization.
