The Dis-membered Border --Epilogue: The Tree of Unity --Glossary of Terms --Notes --Works Cited --IndexWhen the Berlin Wall fell, people who lived along the dismantled border found their lives drastically and rapidly transformed. Daphne Berdahl, through ongoing ethnographic research in a former East German border village, explores the issues of borders and borderland identities that have accompanied the many transitions since 1990. What happens to identity and personhood, she asks, when a political and economic system collapses overnight? How do people negotiate and manipulate a liminal condition created by the disappearance of a significant frame of reference? Berdahl concentrates especially on how these changes have affected certain "border zones" of daily life-including social organization, gender, religion, and nationality-in a place where literal, indeed concrete, borders were until recently a very powerful presence. Borders, she argues, are places of ambiguity as well as of intense lucidity; these qualities may in fact be mutually constitutive. She shows how, in a moment of headlong historical transformation, larger political, economic, and social processes are manifested locally and specifically. In the process of a transition between two German states, people have invented, and to some extent ritualized, cultural practices that both reflect and constitute profound identity transformations in a period of intense social discord. Where the World Ended combines a vivid ethnographic account of everyday life under socialist rule and after German reunification with an original investigation of the paradoxical human condition of a borderland.EthnologyGermanyCase studiesSocial changeGermanyKellaGermany (East)BoundariesCase studiesGermanyHistoryUnification, 1990Case studiesKella (Germany)Case studiesKella (Germany)Social life and customs20th centuryElectronic books.EthnologySocial change341.42Berdahl Daphneauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1049370DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910455099703321Where the World Ended2478312UNINA03470nam 2200745 a 450 991045440370332120200520144314.01-281-38555-797866113855520-520-93472-510.1525/9780520934726(CKB)1000000000533717(EBL)345567(OCoLC)476162460(SSID)ssj0000106991(PQKBManifestationID)11140636(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000106991(PQKBWorkID)10012192(PQKB)11749039(MiAaPQ)EBC345567(DE-B1597)519321(OCoLC)560524168(DE-B1597)9780520934726(Au-PeEL)EBL345567(CaPaEBR)ebr10229947(CaONFJC)MIL138555(EXLCZ)99100000000053371720071130d2008 ub 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAsylum denied[electronic resource] a refugee's struggle for safety in America /David Ngaruri Kenney and Philip G.

Kenney, while living in his native Kenya, led a boycott to protest his government's treatment of his fellow farmers. He was subsequently arrested and taken into the forest to be executed. This book, told by Kenney and his lawyer Philip G. Schrag from Kenney's own perspective, tells of his near-murder, imprisonment, and torture in Kenya; his remarkable escape to the United States; and the obstacle course of ordeals and proceedings he faced as U.S. government agencies sought to deport him to Kenya. A story of courage, love, perseverance, and legal strategy, Asylum Denied brings to life the human costs associated with our immigration laws and suggests reforms that are desperately needed to help other victims of human rights violations.ImmigrantsGovernment policyUnited StatesPolitical refugeesGovernment policyUnited StatesCivil rightsUnited StatesHuman rightsUnited StatesPolitical refugeesUnited StatesBiographyElectronic books.ImmigrantsGovernment policyPolitical refugeesGovernment policyCivil rightsHuman rightsPolitical refugees323.6/31BKenney David Ngaruri1973-1053869Schrag Philip G.1943-946469MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454403703321Asylum denied2486010UNINA$28.0007/24/2015Poli02215nam0 22004813i 450 VAN0027932520241113035806.390N978303136064020240708d2023 |0itac50 baengCH|||| |||||ˆA ‰Course on Holomorphic DiscsHansjörg Geiges, Kai ZehmischChamBirkhäuserSpringer2023xviii, 189 p.ill.24 cm001VAN000448872001 Birkhäuser advanced texts210 Basel [etc.]Birkhäuser1982-32Q65Pseudoholomorphic curves [MSC 2020]VANC034281MF46T10Manifolds of mappings [MSC 2020]VANC029372MF53D35Global theory of symplectic and contact manifolds [MSC 2020]VANC024150MF57R17Symplectic and contact topology in high or arbitrary dimension [MSC 2020]VANC024152MF58D15Manifolds of mappings [MSC 2020]VANC022958MF58J05Elliptic equations on manifolds, general theory [MSC 2020]VANC023134MFBanach manifolds of mapsKW:KFredholm TheoryKW:KModuli SpacesKW:KNonlinear Cauchy-Riemann OperatorKW:KNonsqueezing TheoremKW:KPseudoholomorphic curvesKW:KSard-Smale TheoremKW:KSymplectic EmbeddingsKW:KCHChamVANL001889GeigesHansjörgVANV231890429959ZehmischKaiVANV2318911745428Birkhäuser <editore>VANV108193650Springer <editore>VANV108073650ITSOL20241115RICAhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-36064-0E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o ShibbolethBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA E FISICAIT-CE0120VAN08NVAN00279325BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA E FISICA08DLOAD e-Book 9366 08eMF9366 20240715 Course on Holomorphic Discs4176159UNICAMPANIA
