Description:
First edition. Softcover volume, measuring approximately 4.75" x 7.25", is like new. 95 pages."In the twenty-first century, the idea of race in sports is rapidly changing. The National Basketball Association, for instance, was recently home to a new kind of racial conflict. After a recent playoff loss, Houston head coach Jeff Van Gundy alleged that Yao Ming, his Chinese star center, was the victim of phantom calls, or refereeing decisions that may have been ethnically biased. Grant Farred here shows how this incident can be seen as a pivotal moment in the globalization of the NBA. With some forty percent of its players coming from foreign nations, the idea of race in the NBA has become increasingly multifaceted. Farred explains how allegations of phantom calls such as Van Gundy's challenge the fiction that America is a post-racial society and compel us to think in new ways about the nexus of race and racism in America."

El dilema de los próceres es un thriller sorprendente, plagado de vueltas de tuerca, con claves históricas y culturales. Aquí el detective de Baker Street debe buscar pistas en Londres, Boulogne Sur-Mer y, finalmente, en la Buenos Aires de principios del siglo pasado: una ciudad peligrosa acechada por cuchilleros, espadachines y militares capaces de todo, donde juegan roles inquietantes Victoria Ocampo, Evaristo Carriego y hasta Horacio Quiroga. Diez años después de su primera aparición, vuelve a la vida esta asombrosa trama que, como dijo Tomás Eloy Martínez, "es una formidable…

First printing. Volume, measuring approximately 6.75" x 9.75", is bound in black paper spine and boards, with stamped gilt lettering to spine. Book and dust jacket are new. Jacket is preserved in mylar cover. xi/314 pages."In the 1930s, the French Third Republic banned naturalized citizens from careers in law and medicine for up to ten years after they had obtained French nationality. In 1940, the Vichy regime permanently expelled all lawyers and doctors born of foreign fathers and imposed a 2 percent quota on Jews in both professions. On the basis of extensive archival research, Julie Fette shows in Exclusions that doctors and lawyers themselves, despite their claims to embody republican virtues, persuaded the French state to enact this exclusionary legislation. At the crossroads of knowledge and power, lawyers and doctors had long been dominant forces in French society: they ran hospitals and courts, doubled as university professors, held posts in parliament and government, and administered justice…

Softcover volume, measuring approximately 5.75" x 8.75", is in fine condition, with sound binding, clean and bright interior. xi/219 pages."In the 1990s China embarked on a series of political reforms intended to increase, however modestly, political participation to reduce the abuse of power by local officials. Although there was initial progress, these reforms have largely stalled and, in many cases, gone backward. If there were sufficient incentives to inaugurate reform, why wasn't there enough momentum to continue and deepen them? This book approaches this question by looking at a number of promising reforms, understanding the incentives of officials at different levels, and the way the Chinese Communist Party operates at the local level. The short answer is that the sort of reforms necessary to make local officials more responsible to the citizens they govern cut too deeply into the organizational structure of the party."
