  • Little Boy, the Antichristchild. the Beast in the Nuclear
    UTTLE BOY, THE ANTICHRISTCHILD: THE BEAST IN THE NUCLEAR AGE EDDIE TAFO YA University of New México, USA (Resumen) El presente trabajo intenta demostrar cómo el "anticristo" de John Divine está hoy presente en la bomba atómica. La bomba no sólo ha atraido la atención de h'deres y empresas mundiales quienes la cuestionan y se preguntan "¿Quién puede luchar contra ella?" sino que además ejerce un control totalitario sobre el planeta. Al igual que el "corazón" de John, la bomba en un principio devolvió la paz a un mundo caótico, hizo iimumerables promesas y dijo numerosas blasfemias antes de asumir el papel del dios de la era moderna. The Wonum, the Beast and the Voice in the WUdaness In 1964, Robert Mosely stalked, stabbed, raped, and murdered Kitty Genovese on a New York City Street while 38 people listened to her cries and did nothing. Some even puUed chairs up to their windows to watch the horror.' While this is a sad commentary on U.S. culture, it is a paradigm theological moment. It is the Parable of the Good Samaritan transplanted from Luke's Gospel into modern times. On a theological level, the cries were not merely those of Kitty Genovese but the cries of the eternal Other, the person in need. While Christianity smce the time of Constantino has been a tool for the oppressing of gays, women, non-capitalists, and others, there is a persisten! line of thought which advócales that Jesús' message was not as much a matter of orthodoxy as it is a matter of orthopraxies; it is not so much a religión of repentance as it is a religión of divine duty predicated on listening and responding to the voice of the Other.

ROMA SURRECTA: Portrait of a Counterinsurgent Power, 216 BC - AD 72 Abstract This study evaluates the military history and practice of the Roman Empire in the context of contemporary counterinsurgency theory. It purports that the majority of Rome’s security challenges fulfill the criteria of insurgency, and that Rome’s responses demonstrate counterinsurgency proficiency. These assertions are proven by means of an extensive investigation of the grand strategic, military, and cultural aspects of the Roman state. Fourteen instances of likely insurgency are identified and examined, permitting the application of broad theoretical precepts

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • A Case Study of Revolutionary War and War of the Regulation Battlefields in North and South Carolina
    Leon Dure. Interconnectedness: A Case Study of Revolutionary War and War of the Regulation Battlefields in North and South Carolina. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in LS degree. May 2020. 120 pages. Advisor: Megan Winget This paper examines the preservation and interpretation practices of six battlefields in North and South Carolina, all of which occurred during the American Revolution or the War of the Regulation. I not only conducted interviews with personnel at the sites in question, but also examined resources related to each site, as well as the National Park Service in general. I discovered that in multiple locations preservation and interpretation are interconnected, in that each has a broad, rather than narrow focus. Specifically, both concentrate not just on the battlefield itself and what occurred on a specific day, but also contextual information that helps enlighten visitors to the importance of the site.

  • Agrarian Capitalism's Genocidal Trail
    Agrarian Capitalism’s Genocidal Trail: The Saga of the Guarani-Kaiowa Antonio A. R. Ioris Cardiff University, School of Geography and Planning, Glamorgan Building, King Edward VII Avenue, Cardiff, Wales, CF10 3WA, United Kingdom [email protected]; Phone: 0044 (0)29 20874845; Fax: 0044 (0)29 2087 4022 ORCID: http://orcid.org/0000-0003-0156-2737 Abstract: Although genocide is an expression commonly used today in relation to the dramatic challenges faces by indigenous peoples around the world, the significance of the Guarani-Kaiowa genocidal experience is not casual and cannot be merely sloganised. The indigenous genocide unfolding in the Brazilian State of Mato Grosso do Sul – Kaiowcide – is not just a case of hyperbolic violence or widespread murdering, but it is something qualitatively different from other serious crimes committed against marginalised, subaltern communities. Kaiowcide is actually the reincarnation of old genocidal practices of agrarian capitalism employed to extend and unify the national territory. In other words, Kaiowcide has become a necessity of mainstream development, whilst the sanctity of regional economic growth and private rural property are excuses invoked to justify the genocidal trail. The phenomenon combines strategies and procedures based on the competition and opposition between groups of people who dispute the same land and the relatively scarce social opportunities of an agribusiness-based economy. Only the focus in recent years may have shifted from assimilation and confinement to abandonment and confrontation, but the intent to destabilise and eliminate the original inhabitants of the land through the asphyxiation of their religion, identity and, ultimately, geography seems to rage unabated.
