Terror vs Order

Sinopse

Terror vs Order examines how France and Great Britain navigated the turbulent years of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era, a period that tested the limits of social order. The book contrasts the countries' responses to political violence, focusing on their legal systems and use of emergency powers. Intriguingly, while both nations faced similar threats, France often prioritized national security through centralized control, sometimes at the expense of civil liberties. Great Britain, on the other hand, generally adhered more closely to its common law traditions, emphasizing individual rights even during wartime. The book uniquely compares these divergent approaches to maintaining social order, revealing fundamental differences in their views of state power and individual rights.

 
The study begins by establishing a framework of key concepts like emergency governance and legal traditionalism. It then analyzes France's Reign of Terror and Britain's use of sedition laws, culminating in a comparative analysis that draws broader conclusions about balancing state power and individual rights. Readers gain insights into the enduring challenges of balancing national security and civil liberties, relevant for current debates on these critical issues.

Voices of Dissent - An Essay...

Romila Thapar

Written by one of India's best-known public intellectuals, this book is essential reading for anyone interested in India's fascinating history as well as the direction in which the nation is headed.

People have argued since time immemorial. Disagreement is a part of life, of human experience. But we now live in times when any form of protest in India is marked as anti-Indian and met with arguments that the very concept of dissent was imported into India from the West. As Romila Thapar explores in her timely historical essay, however, dissent has a long history in the subcontinent, even if its forms have evolved through the centuries.
 
In Voices of Dissent: An Essay, Thapar looks at the articulation of nonviolent dissent and relates it to various pivotal moments throughout India's history. Beginning with Vedic times, she takes us from the second to the first millennium BCE, to the emergence of groups that were jointly called the Shramanas-the Jainas, Buddhists, and Ajivikas. Going forward in time, she also explores the views of the Bhakti sants and others of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries and brings us to a major moment of dissent that helped to establish a free and democratic India: Mahatma Gandhi's satyagraha. Then Thapar places in context the recent peaceful protests against India's new, controversial citizenship law, maintaining that dissent in our time must be opposed to injustice and supportive of democratic rights so that society may change for the better.

Ottoman Dress and Design in the...

Charlotte Jirousek, Sara Catterall

“This amply illustrated, attractive book is valuable for dress history scholars . . . [an] ideal textbook for courses on clothing and cultural history.” —The Journal of Dress History Ottoman Dress and Design in the West is a richly illustrated exploration of the relationship between West and Near East through the visual culture of dress. Charlotte Jirousek examines the history of dress and fashion in the broader context of western relationships with the Mediterranean world from the dawn of Islam through the end of the twentieth century. The significance of dress is made apparent by the author’s careful attention to its political, economic, and cultural context. The reader comes to understand that dress reflects not simply the self and one’s relation to community but also that community’s relation to a wider world through trade, colonization, religion, and technology. The chapters provide broad historical background on Ottoman influence and European exoticization of that influence, while the captions and illustrations provide detailed studies of illuminations, paintings, and sculptures to show how these influences were absorbed into everyday living. Through the medium of dress, Jirousek details a continually shifting Ottoman frontier that is closely tied to European and American history. In doing so, she explores and celebrates an essential source of influence that for too long has been relegated to the periphery.
