Overcoming Exploitation and Externalisation
Advancing an intersectional theory of hegemony, this book shows how various power relations interact through capitalist structures of othering. Going beyond the usual critiques of capitalism, it analyses the market itself as a principal cause of various forms of externalisation and domination. The book therefore calls for a dismantling of the market and its competitive economic structures through a transformation of the economy from below, greater democratisation (not least for the empowerment of suppressed identities), and the creation of commons as spaces based on inclusion rather than exclusion. In doing so, Overcoming Exploitation and Externalisation argues that co-operative possibilities can emerge for the transformation of ourselves and our society. It will therefore appeal to scholars and students of social and political theory with interests in the commons and alternatives to capitalism.
Materialities of Age and Ageing: Concepts of a Material Gerontology
In gerontological research the understanding of age and ageing changed in the last decade. Biologic determined explanations no longer prevail in this research field. Instead, ideas of social constructivism are frequently used. These ideas define the state of age and the process of ageing as social constructions, steeping ageing in social and cultural assumptions, ascriptions, and expectations. From a social constructivist perspective, age and ageing are not (just) identified as dependency, deficit, and need for care – as it was foremost accelerated from a biological perspective – but with the life course and thus with individual lifestyles, experiences, attitudes and practices, as well a...
Reinventing Retirement
With 76 million baby boomers on the cusp of retirement in the U.S. alone, it's time to look beyond finances and examine how ending traditional, full-time work impacts every aspect of life. Author Miriam Goodman has interviewed hundreds of retirees on the subjects of home, marriage, family, friends, hobbies, health, and even on going back to part- or full-time work. Their insights will help readers create their personalized strategy for an active and fulfilling retirementwhether that means sailing around the world, starting a new business, or moving to be closer to grandchildren. A workbook format with tabbed sections makes it easy to access the highly practical information that makes Reinventing Retirement an essential guide to this exciting new phase of life.
Dark Side
Exploiting the natural rhythms of traditional English poetry along with the power of rhyme, G. F. McHugh brings a modern perspective to comic verse, whether the subject be primitive cave dwellers evocative of the Neanderthals, the aged inhabitants of an English village, or a miscellany of weird characters. The unlikely relationship of these varied folk to modern awareness is evoked in brief, hard-hitting poems that must produce, in readers young and mature, an irreverent chuckle.
Characterization of a New Large Family of Extinct Short Retroposons in the Protozoan Parasite Leishmania and Their Role in Post-transcriptional Regulation of Gene Expression
Les leishmanioses se caractérisent par divers symptômes allant de lésions cutanées guérissant spontanément, causées surtout par L. major, . à des infections viscérales potentiellement mortelles causées par le complexe L. donovani/L. infantum. Malgré des génomes presque identiques, des analyses comparatives sur biopuces ont révélé d'importantes différences d'expression génique entre l~s deux stades de vie, promastigotes et amastigotes chez ces deux espèces, ce qui pourrait contribuer aux différences dans les manifestations cliniques. Chez Leishmania, le contrôle de l'expression génique s' effectue au niveau posttranscriptionnel et implique surtout des séquences cis régu...
