Communists, scholars, parents, and uncompromising militants, they were the perfect enemies for the white police state. Together they were swept up in the growing resistance to apartheid, and together they experienced repression and exile. Their contributions to the liberation struggle, as individuals and as a couple, are undeniable. Ruth agitated tirelessly for the overthrow of apartheid, first in South Africa and then from abroad, and Joe directed much of the armed struggle carried out by theAnti-apartheid activistsSouth AfricaBiographyPolitical activistsSouth AfricaBiographyCivil rights workersSouth AfricaBiographyCommunistsSouth AfricaBiographyAnti-apartheid movementsSouth AfricaAnti-apartheid activistsPolitical activistsCivil rights workersCommunistsAnti-apartheid movements323.168092Wieder Alan1949-1470359Gordimer Nadine319802MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786829803321Ruth First and Joe Slovo in the war against apartheid3682134UNINA02283nam 2200409 450 991081421990332120231129200516.01-62894-406-4(CKB)4100000011371272(MiAaPQ)EBC6271185(EXLCZ)99410000001137127220201125d2019 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEast asian politico-economic ties with the middle east newcomers, trailblazers, and unsung stakeholders /Shirzad AzadNew York, United States of America :Algora Publishing,2019.1 online resource (180 pages) illustrationsIncludes index.1-62894-404-8 1-62894-405-6 China in the Middle East: Aspiring to become a great powerbroker -- Japan: Eyeing a new role in Middle East Affairs -- South Korea: A relentless quest for a second boom -- North Korea: Seeking normalcy since the demise of Kim Il-Sung -- Unknown and undetected: Taiwan's resilient and viable approach -- Dollar dances with Dirham: Hong Kong's growing Mideast role."China with its Belt and Road, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and the Koreas all have a stake in the development of the Middle East and Central Asia, whether Persian, Arab or Turkic. While the U.S. acts as if the Middle East were somehow its own colony to exploit, other states are actively building mutually beneficial cultural and commercial ties, and they're boosting each other's development. The author reviews the various players and outlines the array of positive steps they are taking to build a strong future together.
