  • The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol J. Adams
    THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT A FEMINISTVEGETARIAN CRITICAL THEORY Praise for The Sexual Politics of Meat and Carol J. Adams “A clearheaded scholar joins the ideas of two movements—vegetari- anism and feminism—and turns them into a single coherent and moral theory. Her argument is rational and persuasive. New ground—whole acres of it—is broken by Adams.” —Colman McCarthy, Washington Post Book World “Th e Sexual Politics of Meat examines the historical, gender, race, and class implications of meat culture, and makes the links between the prac tice of butchering/eating animals and the maintenance of male domi nance. Read this powerful new book and you may well become a vegetarian.” —Ms. “Adams’s work will almost surely become a ‘bible’ for feminist and pro gressive animal rights activists. Depiction of animal exploita- tion as one manifestation of a brutal patriarchal culture has been explored in two [of her] books, Th e Sexual Politics of Meat and Neither Man nor Beast: Feminism and the Defense of Animals. Adams argues that factory farming is part of a whole culture of oppression and insti- tutionalized violence. Th e treatment of animals as objects is parallel to and associated with patriarchal society’s objectifi cation of women, blacks, and other minorities in order to routinely exploit them. Adams excels in constructing unexpected juxtapositions by using the language of one kind of relationship to illuminate another. Employing poetic rather than rhetorical techniques, Adams makes powerful connec- tions that encourage readers to draw their own conclusions.” —Choice “A dynamic contribution toward creating a feminist/animal rights theory.” —Animals’ Agenda “A cohesive, passionate case linking meat-eating to the oppression of animals and women .

  • Refusing to Hyphenate: Doukhobor Autobiographical Discourse
    REFUSING TO HYPHENATE: DOUKHOBOR AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL DISCOURSE By JULIE RAK, M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School ofGraduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment ofthe Requirements for the Degree Doctorate McMaster University © Copyright by Julie Rak, June 1998 DOCTORATE (1998) (English) McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Refusing to Hyphenate: Doukhobor Autobiographical Discourse AUTHOR: Julie Rak, B.A. (McMaster University), M.A. (Carleton University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Lorraine M. York NUMBER OF PAGES: vi,256 (ii) Abstract My thesis, Refusing to Hyphenate: Doukhobor Autobiographical Discourse brings together recent theories ofautobiography with a consideration ofalternative autobiographical writing and speaking made by a Russian-speaking migrant group, the Doukhobors ofCanada. The situation ofthe Doukhobors is ideal for a consideration of alternate autobiographical forms, since Doukhobors have fallen outside liberal democratic discourses ofCanadian nationalism, land use and religion ever since their arrival in Canada in 1899. They have turned to alternate strategies to retell their own histories against the grain ofthe sensationalist image ofDoukhobors propagated by government commissions and by the Canadian media. My study is the first to recover archived autobiographical material by Doukhobors for analysis. It also breaks new ground by linking new developments in autobiography theory with other developments in diaspora theory, orality and literacy and theories ofperformativity, as well as criticism that takes issues about identity and its relationship to power into account. When they had to partially assimilate by the 1950s, some Doukhobors made autobiographical writings, translations and recordings that included interviews, older autobiographical accounts and oral histories about their identity as a migratory, persecuted people who resist State control. Others recorded their protests against the British Columbian government from the 1930s to the 1960s in collective prison diaries and legal documents.

A Declaration of Interdependence: Peace, Social Justice, and the “Spirit Wrestlers” John Elfers Sofia University Palo Alto, CA, USA The struggle between the Doukhobors, a nonviolent society committed to communal values, and the Canadian Government epitomizes the tension between values of personal rights and independence on the one hand, and social obligation on the other. The immigration of the Doukhobors from Russia to the Canadian prairies in 1899 precipitated a century- long struggle that brings issues of social justice, moral obligation, political authority, and the rule of law into question. The fundamental core of Western democracies, founded on the sanctity of individual rights and equal opportunity, loses its potency in a community that holds to the primacy of interdependence and an ethic of caring.

Canada ABSTRACT « Traditionally, international boundaries have been re• garded as barriers to the evolution of transportation networks. Numerous examples of the disruptive influence of borders on travel routes have been documented in the literature. Does such a pattern always occur? This thesis is concerned with a railnet which evolved in close proximity to an international boundary, but which for the most part appeared able to develop with little regard for the boundary as a barrier. This railnet is that of the Kootenay district of south• eastern British Columbia and the adjacent United States. An investigation is made of the major elements which best explain the nature of this network's evolution. They are discovered to include a rich natural resource endowment, rivalry between rail• way companies, and private and government decision makers, but not the international boundary.

  • Introduction
    00front.qxd 2/9/2004 2:20 PM Page viii Introduction When the first Doukhobor immigrants stepped onto a pier in Halifax in 1899 as refugees from tsarist religious persecution in Russia, they began a chapter in the history of the development of Canada as a nation that is still being written and that, at times, is still under erasure. The story of the Doukhobors in Canada remains one of the most unusual stories of mass migration because the Doukhobors arrived at a time when ideas about Canada’s position in the British Empire were still debated and the position of migrants was not yet fully worked through. Soon after the Doukhobors began to live in Canada their belief in pacifism, anti-patriotism, commu- nal living, and vegetarianism, along with their desire to retain their own language and their deep suspicion of institutionalization of any kind, proved to be threatening to many who were developing ideas about Can- ada and what it should mean to be Canadian. This resulted in a struggle that highlights what type of nation Canada was at the turn of the last century, and why, until very recently, the Doukhobors have had so much difficulty living in it. Doukhobors, out of all proportion to their rather small numbers, have played a large part in the othering of certain kinds of ethnicity and reli- gious expression in Canada. This is because they have been, in Louis Althusser’s words, “bad subjects.” Not only did they resist the institutions, laws, and beliefs that would have made them into “good” immigrants and docile citizens but they also refused to recognize the terms of recognition that would have made them like most other migrants.

  • Doukhobor Problem,” 1899-1999
    Spirit Wrestling Identity Conflict and the Canadian “Doukhobor Problem,” 1899-1999 By Ashleigh Brienne Androsoff A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Department of History, in the University of Toronto © by Ashleigh Brienne Androsoff, 2011 Spirit Wrestling: Identity Conflict and the Canadian “Doukhobor Problem,” 1899-1999 Ashleigh Brienne Androsoff Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Department of History, University of Toronto, 2011 ABSTRACT At the end of the nineteenth century, Canada sought “desirable” immigrants to “settle” the Northwest. At the same time, nearly eight thousand members of the Dukhobori (commonly transliterated as “Doukhobors” and translated as “Spirit Wrestlers”) sought refuge from escalating religious persecution perpetrated by Russian church and state authorities. Initially, the Doukhobors’ immigration to Canada in 1899 seemed to satisfy the needs of host and newcomer alike. Both parties soon realized, however, that the Doukhobors’ transition would prove more difficult than anticipated. The Doukhobors’ collective memory of persecution negatively influenced their perception of state interventions in their private affairs. In addition, their expectation that they would be able to preserve their ethno-religious identity on their own terms clashed with Canadian expectations that they would soon integrate into the Canadian mainstream. This study focuses on the historical evolution of the “Doukhobor problem” in Russia and in Canada. It argues that

  • These Are the Comments of Richard Rose to FDA's Request for Comments on the "Development of a List of Pre-Dietary Supplemen
    These are the comments of Richard Rose to FDA's Request for Comments on the "Development of a List of Pre-Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act Dietary Ingredients" and the reasons Hemp Flower Products should be considered an ingredient existing before the passage of DSHEA. This has been submitted to: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/09/06/2017-18812/development-of-a-list- of-pre-dietary-supplement-health-and-education-act-dietary-ingredients-public#open- comment This submission is a stakeholder comment to your "Development of a List of Pre-DSHEA Dietary Ingredients" issue. My name is Richard Rose and I'm an award-winning food industry professional of 37 years now retired, and also a well-known commercial producer of numerous Hempseed foods starting in 1994, months before DSHEA. Here I am representing the Hemp Food Association, which I founded in 1998. While the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA 1994) is only 23 years old, it is a well-documented fact that humans and animals have consumed Hemp Flower Products for many millennia around the world, including the USA where Hemp has been grown continuously since at least 1606. This is because the resin adhering to the flowers as well as fine particles of flower are inevitably consumed when the seed is eaten or pressed for its edible oil. This sticky resinous adherent on the outside of the shell of the hempseed is difficult to remove, even today, and often include Hemp Flower fines. With at least 12,000 years of safe continuous use around the world, FDA must consider Hemp Flower Products, in their natural form, as an existing ingredient for the purposes of DSHEA, and not as a New Dietary Ingredient any more than water, heirloom apples, or ancient rye varieties.
