Abstract:

The tragic Romantic anthropology entailed a rebellious conflict with the world, other people and even with the self. Its integral part is a mental wound of Romantics, whose anthropological and philosophical contexts are presented in the article. The author attempts to establish a set of factors which led to the ethical, social, religious and psychological anxieties of the French post-revolution generations. To that end the author uses various approaches that encompass psychological aspects of different kinds of aggression aimed at God, the world and the self, psychoanalysis as well as philosop

Abstract:

World War II is a global catastrophe for humanity. The consequences of this event left their mark on citizens of different countries. The authors studied the "ethnic distance" of the Chinese and Japanese ethnic groups against the backdrop of World War II. It was determined that the main factor influencing the existing "post-conflict anxieties" of the Chinese is associated with the brutal research programs of the Japanese army, namely the activities of Unit 731 in China. The authors of the article are inclined to believe that Sino-Japanese relations will not be able to have positive dynamics du

Abstract:

China and India have divergent political ideologies, characteristics, aspirations, anxieties, and hence their strategic perceptions and orientations differ. Their strategic interaction in southern Asia has for its backdrop the 1962 border conflict. In terms of maritime security, the Pacific–Indian Ocean continuum has become the centre of gravity post-9/11 with both China and India having long-term growth trajectories in terms of naval power, a process skewed in favour of the PLA Navy (PLAN).

Abstract:

The beginning of Space Age coincided with the global spread of a subterranean, post-apocalyptic imagination of the bunker. The coexistence of faith in technological progress and fear of a nuclear-caused self-annihilation created a tension between a claustrophilic and a claustrophobic relation to space that deeply shaped American spatial imagination. As I argue in this article, this spatial tension can be profitably illustrated by focusing on the cartographic imagination of science fiction produced in America between the 1950s and the 1980s.

Virginia’s Readjuster Party was the most successful interracial political coalition in the post-Reconstruction South. Initially arising from a conflict over the payment of Virginia’s massive public debt, the new party became a force of liberal reform and democracy in the Old Dominion. It represented an alternative path before Jim Crow segregation and disfranchisement became the norm. While the Readjusters have long interested historians, the significant work performed by Black Readjusters in building and sustaining the always-tenuous coalition has gone understudied.

Abstract:

Using the recent trend in literary scholarship that theorizes literature in terms of globalization, cosmopolitanism, and dialectic transnational identities, I examine gender and sexual ideology in Mohsin Hamid’s 2007 novel The Reluctant Fundamentalist, a post-9/11 text that explores the intricacies of community and terror. Specifically, I argue that the novel articulates a particularly gendered vision of spatial, social, and political (im)mobility through the narrator’s desires, especially as demonstrated through his romantic interest, and masculine anxieties expressed through his response to

AbstractThis paper is an investigation of the relationship between identity, politics, and rumours in Jimma, Ethiopia. The introduction of ethnic federalism in Ethiopia after the fall of the Marxist Derg regime in 1991 has been the topic of a significant amount of academic discussion, but little attention has been given to the day-to-day experience of this change. Consequently, post-1991 Ethiopian politics have been viewed primarily in terms of ethnic power struggles.

Since the 199Os, local or “proximity” broadcasting has materialized contests over popular expression in Côte d'Ivoire. After 2O11, local stations also crystallized expectations and anxieties over the role of popular voice in peacebuilding.

The post-World War II occupation of western Germany remains salient to developing theories of post-war crime, insurgency, and policing during post-conflict reconstruction.

All employ the concepts of legitimacy and illegitimacy to define what is and what is not permissible. Further, the creation of the illegitimate can occur in more or less legitimate ways; for example, through acts of consent, on the one hand; and force, on the other. Th
