Description

Being on a tightrope is living; everything else is waiting.rdquo;When Gary Maddocks rejoins Mike Evans and his Counter IED Team in Afghanistan he is pleased. He has been finding life back home with Emma dull and is impatient to get back to the job he loves; but if he had known what fate had in store for him would he have been so eager? Of course he would: its like an addiction; and if your luck runs out theres nothing you can do about it; is there? But was it bad luck; faulty equipment; or something worse? Mike has been acting strange lately and Emma appears to be hiding something.When you step on a pressure plate you think you hear the click; or you think you feel it; but you dont know for sure. And you cant know because what you remember . . . well some of it isnt real.Ross Ericsons play Casualties explores how love; friendship and truth are not so certain in the context of war. Indigenous peoples have long sought the return of ancestral human remains and associated artifacts from western museums and scientific institutions. Since the late 1970s their efforts have led museum curators and researchers to re-evaluate their practices and policies in respect to the scientific uses of human remains. New partnerships have been established between cultural and scientific institutions and indigenous communities. Human remains and culturally significant objects have been returned to the care of indigenous communities; although the fate of bones and burial artifacts in numerous collections remains unresolved and; in some instances; the subject of controversy. In this book; leading researchers from a wide range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences reflect critically on the historical; cultural; ethical and scientific dimensions of repatriation. Through various case studies they consider the impact of repatriation: what have been the benefits; and in what ways has repatriation given rise to new problems for indigenous people; scientists and museum personnel. It features chapters by indigenous knowledge custodians; who reflect upon recent debates and interaction between indigenous people and researchers in disciplines with direct interests in the continued scientific preservation of human remains.In this book; leading researchers from a wide range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences reflect critically on the historical; cultural; ethical and scientific dimensions of repatriation.

I problemi che qualsiasi persona diversamente abile si trova ad affrontare ogni giorno sono innumerevoli e di diversa natura. Questo fatto; in apparenza comprensibile; diventa inquietante quando; da unrsquo;analisi piugrave; attenta; si deduce che la maggior parte di certi inconvenienti sono legati a questioni burocratiche mal gestite; a tare sociali non ancora curate; a barriere architettoniche e strutturali; tutti aspetti che ci fanno comprendere quanto lrsquo;impegno delle istituzioni sia minimo; a volte addirittura assente. Ida Mantovani parte dallrsquo;esperienza personale analizzando i limiti della cittagrave; in cui vive; Bitonto; ma in questo modo; dal particolare; riesce a comporre un saggio universale; lucido e spietato. Il problema delle barriere architettoniche egrave; sostanzialmente un problema di natura culturale. Percheacute; un qualsiasi luogo possa essere accessibile alla persona con diversa abilitagrave;; come lo egrave; per le persone che tali non sono; egrave; necessario considerare la cultura della solidarietagrave; che sempre meno; purtroppo; caratterizza la vita sociale. In unrsquo;atmosfera quasi kafkiana; il Regno subisce lrsquo;invasione da parte di un misterioso esercito straniero. Lrsquo;Imperatore; che pure egrave; immensamente potente; per evitare un bagno di sangue permette che gli occupanti dilaghino. I cittadini si dividono. Una parte si fa affascinare dalla novitagrave;; lrsquo;altra resiste. I misteriosi occupanti; il nome dei quali contiene sempre la lettera K; sovvertono i costumi tradizionali del Regno. Creano i Box Bianki; ne adorano gli strani prodotti; battono una nuova moneta; creano la Chiesa dellrsquo;occupante. Si sparge la voce che lrsquo;Imperatore egrave; morto. Privati della sua saggezza; i cittadini piugrave; coscienti sono smarriti. Come finiragrave; la vicenda? Lrsquo;autore non prende partito. Ma nelle sue pagine aleggia lrsquo;essenza del mondo contemporaneo e della sua economia politica; di cui il racconto egrave; una forte metafora.
