Industrial Labour in an Unequal World

The volume scrutinizes the fundamentally uneven character of industrial production and working class formation by bringing together anthropologists specializing on industrial labour in various locations from South America, Western and Eastern Europe, North Africa, and South Asia. Through their engagement with Leon Trotsky’s concept of ‘uneven and combined development’ the authors unravel the complex relations that connect (and disconnect) labour in their sites of research with workers in other places and other times. As the contributions likewise reveal, the unevenness and combination inherent in industrial developments shape and are at the same time also shaped by the different politics workers in an unequal world pursue, as well as the historical experiences and future expectations of workers that inform these. With the attention the authors pay to the specificities of ethnographic detail as well as to broader regional and global developments the volume demonstrates the value of long-term ethnographic research and is of interest to a wide audience ranging from specialists in the fields of anthropology, history, sociology and development studies to students and activists.

Geschichte und Region / Storia e regione Sonderheft 2022

Die Zeitschrift "Geschichte und Region/Storia e e regione" verdankt Helmut Alexander weit mehr als nur ihren Namen. Helmut Alexander repräsentiert eine modernisierte wie multidisziplinäre Landesgeschichte, deren Anliegen er kraft Herkunft und Ausbildung mit Überzeugung vertrat. Die Sondernummer "Regionen der Geschichte / Ragioni della storia" ist ihm anlässlich seines 65. Geburtstages gewidmet und will Alexanders Meriten ebenso in den Vordergrund rücken wie die Aufgaben einer vielfältig offenen Regionalgeschichte des zentralen Alpenraums. Einen biografischen Aufriss zur persönlichen und wissenschaftlichen Vita des Jubilars begleiten Beiträge in deutscher und italienischer Sprache, die Kernanliegen der Zeitschrift aufgreifen, vor allem aber die verbindenden Aktivitäten Alexanders veranschaulichen.

Italy and the Suez Canal, from the Mid-nineteenth Century to the Cold War

Conceived in the 1850s and opened to navigation in 1869, the Suez Canal’s construction coincided with Italy’s path to unification and its first foray into nineteenth-century globalization. Since then, the history of Italy and the Canal have intertwined in many ways, throughout in peace and war. This edited collection explores the fundamental technical, diplomatic and financial contributions that Italy made to the production of the Canal and to its subsequent development, from the mid-nineteenth century to the Cold War. Drawing from unpublished public and private archival sources, this book is the first comprehensive account of this long and multifaceted relationship, providing innovative perspectives on Italy’s diplomatic, economic, social, colonial and cultural history. An insightful read for those studying maritime, diplomatic or Italian history, this book contributes to a growing body of research on the Canal, which has largely emerged from international business, labour and social history, and offers new insights into the Euro-Mediterranean region.

The guidelines for each treatment include dose and the frequency and mode of delivery. Significant side-effects of treatment are identified and distinguished from those of the disease in question. Suggestions are presented for the prevention both of the disease itself and of the treatment-related complications. In addition, likely future directions in treatment and prevention are identified.

Di giorno, accantonavo i sogni e la felicità, e la notte li stringevo forte a me. Per lungo tempo ho guardato i miei sogni con le occhiaie delle giornate interminabili. Infine, mi stendevo sul letto e non dormivo. Insonnia, mi dicevano. Ma dentro sentivo che un'altra giornata se ne andava, ed io non avevo fatto nulla per me stesso. Dov'ero finito in tutte quelle parole buttate nelle mie giornate? Non mi sembrava di vivere la mia vita. Stavo tradendo quel poco di me che mi era rimasto.Dovevo solamente decidere: abbandonare definitivamente i miei sogni?Decisi di partire. Questo è il mio diario di viaggio.Questa è la mia ribelle libertà.
