Contemporary African Dance Theatre
This book is the first to consider contemporary African dance theatre aesthetics in the context of phenomenology, whiteness, and the gaze. Rather than a discussion of African dance per se, the author challenges hegemonic perceptions of contemporary African dance theatre to interrogate the extent to which white supremacy and privilege weave through capitalist necropolitics and determine our perception of contemporary African dance theatre today. Multiple aesthetic strategies are discussed throughout the book to account for the affective experience of ‘un-suturing’ that touches white spectatorship and colonial guilt at their core. The critical analysis covers a broad range of dance choreography by artists from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ivory Coast, South Africa, Canada, Europe, and the US as they travel, create, and show their works internationally to global audiences to contest racial divides and white supremacist politics.
From Traditional to Modern African Water Management
This book preserves and scientifically interprets the African foreknowledge on water resources management. It offers insight into the relevance of the traditional knowledge and practices to modern approaches on sustainable water management. The African continent has partially preserved its natural habitat for centuries. In this book, this knowledge is combined with the current scientific understanding. The traditional practices are categorized as: i) water harvesting, ii) water transportation, iii) water storage and conservation, iv) water treatments, v) myths and folk stories about water management or conservation, vi) water resource management systems, and vii) soil–water–forest conservation/management systems sub-topics. The findings presented here are in line with SDG 6, which aims at ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all by the year 2030.

Process developments such as nano-adsorbents for removal of arsenic and other heavy metals are discussed in the second part of the book that comprises of 4 chapters. The third part of the book includes 4 chapters on technological interventions for the removal of arsenic such as indigenous ceramic membranes and Subterranean Arsenic Removal (SAR). The fourth part of the book deals with arsenic contamination in food materials and food chain systems, and consists of 5 chapters. Arsenic has long been associated with a variety of health complications in the human body. In order to address this, a chapter on arsenic contamination and impacts on human health has been included in the fifth part of the book. The book would be a valuable reference material for the scientific community in developing countries working on community water supply and treatment, food safety, public health and policy.

Aquest llibre presenta, amb dades de les actes notarials redactades pels escrivans en els manuals de consells conservats a l’Arxiu Municipal de València, la llista de personatges que exerciren els càrrecs i que ocuparen els escons municipals entre 1306 i 1516, a més d’afegir els titulars de les magistratures i els oficials subordinats. Un nombrós Consell constituït per més d’un centenar i mig de persones que es renovaven tots els anys, elegides tant per cadascuna de les dotze parròquies ciutadanes reconegudes com districtes electorals, com per una quantitat ingent d’oficis corporatius, per tal d’aplicar les mesures i normatives ciutadanes que el mateix òrgan elaborava, bé per iniciativa pròpia o bé en aplicació de les directrius reials. Més de 38.000 referències de persones encarregades de les més diverses funcions i activitats en el Govern de la ciutat, una informació que pot contribuir a refer la trajectòria pública de no pocs personatges i famílies o la seva promoció dins l’escala social, amb una recomposició curricular de funcions i d’estatus que ens permet una prosopografia col·lectiva dels prohoms i cavallers de la ciutat de València.
