Sinossi

Museum Expansion Wars examines the increasing competition among museums for funding, real estate, and cultural influence. Traditionally seen as cultural repositories, museums now actively engage in economic and political arenas. The book reveals how museums vie for financial resources through grants and sponsorships, compete for prime urban land, often sparking community clashes, and seek to shape cultural narratives to attract diverse audiences. These battles highlight the complex interplay between cultural institutions, economic forces, and political agendas, revealing that museums are active agents in shaping public perception.

 
The book explores the evolution of museums, from private collections to public institutions, addressing historical context and theoretical frameworks. Case studies analyze specific museum expansion efforts, focusing on strategies employed, challenges faced, and consequences of actions relating to funding, land acquisition, and cultural influence. Museum Expansion Wars uniquely connects these struggles into a coherent narrative, departing from traditional museum studies by focusing on economic and political forces.

 
This study offers practical insights for museum professionals and policymakers, providing a comprehensive overview of the forces shaping the contemporary cultural landscape. The book addresses the ethical dilemmas arising from revenue pressures, such as accepting conflicting funding or prioritizing blockbuster exhibitions. It proposes strategies for a more equitable museum ecosystem.

    This title contains two books, which are these: 
    1 - Safavid Empire - The Safavid Empire, often referred to as Safavid Iran or Safavid Persia, stands out as one of the most influential Iranian empires following the Muslim conquest of Persia in the 7th century. Ruling from 1501 to 1736, the Safavid dynasty is regarded as the catalyst for modern Iranian history and is recognized as one of the prominent gunpowder empires of its time. A pivotal moment in Muslim history, the Safavid rulers established the Twelver school of Shia Islam as the empire's official religion, which fundamentally shaped the spiritual and political landscape of Iran. 
    The origins of the Safavid dynasty can be traced back to a Sufi order founded in the Azerbaijani city of Ardabil. Initially a spiritual movement, the Safavid order transformed into a formidable political force. The dynasty, which had Kurdish Iranian roots, became increasingly Turkified through intermarriages with various ethnic groups, including Turkoman, Georgian, Circassian, and Pontic Greek officials. As a result, the Safavid leaders became Turkish-speaking and culturally integrated into the diverse milieu of the region. 
    2 - Sasanian Empire - The Sasanian Empire, often referred to by historians as the Neo-Persian Empire, was the last significant Iranian empire before the Muslim invasions of the 7th and 8th centuries AD. Named after the House of Sasan, this empire lasted nearly four centuries, from 224 to 651 AD, making it the longest-lived Persian imperial dynasty. The Sasanian Empire emerged during late antiquity, succeeding the Parthian Empire and re-establishing Persian prominence in the region, rivaling the Roman Empire (later known as the Byzantine Empire after 395 AD).

    How you—and your church community—can play a part in ending racism.  
    Pastors John Siebeling and Wayne Francis—whose thriving congregations are the embodiment of diversity—have pooled their insights and experiences to help others have conversations about racism. Many churches and leaders have sought their counsel, hoping to emulate their success, and yours can too. 
    God and Race provides a non-threatening means for pastors, church leaders, and churchgoers to speak to each other about this difficult and pervasive problem. In this audio study, Wayne and John show how neither black fists nor white knuckles are the answer to the problem, but that what is needed are open hands, open hearts, and open minds. Together, they:Examine the White-Black tension from both perspectives.Answer all the uncomfortable questions we're afraid to ask—regarding ourselves, our families, our work and relationships, and the church.Discuss seven key statements that they believe the church needs to acknowledge today—including that racism is a real problem, that it's more than just a spiritual issue, and that the Gospel is the solution.Provide practical steps anyone can take to become part of the solution. 
    In the Gospels, we see how the crowds came to Jesus because he talked about real issues and was not afraid to engage in the important issues of his day. In the church of today, we need to be doing the same: only by recognizing, addressing, and openly dialoguing about the racial tension in America can we begin to work toward real solutions together.

    Fighting From Above - A Combat...

    The story of the United States Air Force (USAF) stretches back to aerial operations prior to the First World War and looks forward to a new era of airpower in space. Fighting from Above presents a concise account of this history, offering a new perspective on how the air forces of the United States created an independent way of warfare over time. 
     
     
     
    From the earliest battles of the USAF's predecessor organizations to its modern incarnation, Brian D. Laslie identifies four distinct ways of war that developed over four distinct epochs. Beginning with the development of early air power (1906–1941), he highlights the creation of roles and missions. An era of strategic dominance (1942–1975) followed in which the ideas of strategic bombardment ruled the air force; when such notions were unceremoniously proven false during the Vietnam-era conflicts, a period of tactical ascendancy (1975–2019) began. Finally, Laslie considers the current environment, where much of the story of the USAF remains unwritten as it grapples with the prospects and challenges posed by drones and the U.S. Space Force. 
     
     
     
    While detailing combat operations, Fighting from Above also pays close attention to technology, politics, rivalries, logistics, policy, organization, equipping, and training. It is an authoritative history of the development of American airpower.
