Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This gritty and thought-provoking novel reflects the underbelly of the 1980s West End. The vibrant glamorous tourist-filled streets by day harshly contrast with the shady, violent and hedonistically driven nights on these same London streets. We are plunged into the dramatic life of WPC Kath Peters, as she embarks on her night shift. 'Night Duty, West End' depicts in dramatic detail how policing in the West End of London in the 1980s was a trial by fire for probationers. Night duty gave a deep insight into humanity at its worst and best. This book looks at prostitution and probationers, property and policing, and shines a spotlight on the fascinating and intriguing world of 1980s policing. This is a gripping and deeply moving novel, which takes readers through the experience of policing a single night duty week in the West End. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: New. Bringing together original, contemporary ethnographic research on the Northeast African state of Eritrea, this book shows how biopolitics - the state-led deployment of disciplinary technologies on individuals and population groups - is assuming particular forms in the twenty-first century. Once hailed as the "African country that works," Eritrea's apparently successful post-independence development has since lapsed into economic crisis and severe human rights violations. This is due not only to the border war with Ethiopia that began in 1998, but is also the result of discernible tendencies in the "high modernist" style of social mobilization for development first adopted by the Eritrean government during the liberation struggle (1961-1991) and later carried into the post-independence era. The contributions to this volume reveal and interpret the links between development and developmentalist ideologies, intensifying militarism, and the controlling and disciplining of human lives and bodies by state institutions, policies, and discourses. Also assessed are the multiple consequences of these policies for the Eritrean people and the ways in which such policies are resisted or subverted. This insightful, comparative volume places the Eritrean case in a broader global and transnational context.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume challenges the concept of the 'new African middle class' with new theoretical and empirical insights into the changing lives in Sub-Saharan Africa. Diverse middle classes are on the rise, but models of class based on experiences from other regions of the world cannot be easily transferred to the African continent. Empirical contributions, drawn from a diverse range of contexts, address both African histories of class formation and the political roles of the continent's middle classes, and also examine the important interdependencies that cut across inter-generational, urban-rural and class divides. This thought-provoking book argues emphatically for a revision of common notions of the 'middle class', and for the inclusion of insights 'from the South' into the global debate on class.Middle Classes in Africa will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines, as well as NGOs and policy makers with an interest in African societies.
