Is writing about peace after the Rwandan Genocide self-defeating? Whether it is the intensity of the massacres, the popularity of the genocide, or the imaginary forms of cruelty, however one looks at it, everything in the Rwandan Genocide appears to defy once again the possibility of thinking peace anew. In order to address this problem, this book investigates the work of specific French and Rwandese philosophers in order to renew our understanding of peace today. Through this path-breaking investigation, peace no longer stands for an ideal in the future, but becomes a structure of inter-subjectivity that guarantees that the violence of language always prevails over any other form of violenc...
This volume presents the fundamentals and advances in state-of-the-art catalytic nanoscale interventions to improve the efficiency of bioelectrochemical systems. These systems are used in a number of applications in the water-energy nexus. Contributed chapters describe and build on useful strategies to use and reference when dealing with an important environmental issue: the final disposal of heavy metal catalysts. Summarizing basic and translational research, these chapters are valuable for researchers in energy, nanotechnology, and catalysis.
Jewish masculinity in context -- Masculinity in crisis: persecution and collapse -- Masculinity reasserted: enclosure and stability -- Masculinity upheld: fatherhood and filial respect
Many X-Ray Free-Electron Lasers (X-FELs) have been designed, built and commissioned since the first lasing of the Linac Coherent Light Source in the hard and soft X-ray regions, and great progress has been made in improving their performance and extending their capabilities. Meanwhile, experimental techniques to exploit the unique properties of X-FELs to explore atomic and molecular systems of interest to physics, chemistry, biology and the material sciences have also been developed. As a result, our knowledge of atomic and molecular science has been greatly extended. Nevertheless, there is still much to be accomplished, and the potential for discovery with X-FELs is still largely unexplored...
This is the first study of the modern history, experience, and ethno-religious identity of the Dönme, the descendants of seventeenth-century Jewish converts to Islam, in Ottoman and Greek Salonica and in Turkish Istanbul.
