E-BooksTo Be Nsala's Daughter Decomposing the Colonial Gaze



To Be Nsala's Daughter Decomposing the Colonial Gaze
Chérie N. Rivers, "To Be Nsala's Daughter: Decomposing the Colonial Gaze"
English | ISBN: 1478016450 | 2023 | 128 pages | PDF | 24 MB
In To Be Nsala's Daughter, Chérie N. Rivers shows how colonial systems of normalized violence condition the way we see and, through collaboration with contemporary Congolese artists, imagines ways we might learn to see differently. Rivers focuses on a photograph of a Congolese man, Nsala, looking at the disembodied hand and foot of his daughter, which were removed as punishment for his failure to deliver the requisite amount of rubber in King Léopold's Congo. This photograph, taken by British missionary Alice Seeley Harris, featured prominently in abolitionist campaigns to end colonial atrocities in Central Africa in the early twentieth century. But in addition to exposing the visible violence of colonialism, Rivers argues, this photograph also exposes the invisible-and continued-violence of the colonial gaze. With a poetic, personal collage of stories and images,

E-BooksFather-Daughter Succession in Family Business A Cross-Cultural Perspective



Father-Daughter Succession in Family Business A Cross-Cultural Perspective
Paul W. Thurman, "Father-Daughter Succession in Family Business: A Cross-Cultural Perspective"
English | ISBN: 0566092204 | 2011 | 336 pages | PDF | 2 MB
To whom does a father, retiring from his life as a successful entrepreneur, pass control of the business he has built? Once it would always have been his eldest son, but increasingly women are becoming involved in family firms having risen to positions of influence and leadership. Using revealing case studies from the daughters who succeeded their entrepreneur fathers in a wide variety of challenging situations, cultures and continents, Father-Daughter Succession in Family Business discusses the changes which have led to daughters gaining influence in more and more family businesses. It looks at the tensions this succession can produce between old notions of how men and women should behave, and the new style of leadership that often comes about when a woman takes the helm. This book will help consultants, business educators, and researchers, as well as those who are themselves involved in significant family managed enterprises to better understand why it can no longer be assumed in any part of the World that the first born son will take over the reins of the family business.

E-BooksHer Father's Daughter Gender, Power, and Religion in the Early Spanish Kingdoms



Her Father's Daughter Gender, Power, and Religion in the Early Spanish Kingdoms
Her Father's Daughter: Gender, Power, and Religion in the Early Spanish Kingdoms By Lucy K. Pick
2017 | 290 Pages | ISBN: 1501714325 | PDF | 3 MB
In Her Father's Daughter, Lucy K. Pick considers a group of royal women in the early medieval kingdoms of the Asturias and of León-Castilla; their lives say a great deal about structures of power and the roles of gender and religion within the early Iberian kingdoms. Pick examines these women, all daughters of kings, as members of networks of power that work variously in parallel, in concert, and in resistance to some forms of male power, and contends that only by mapping these networks do we gain a full understanding of the nature of monarchical power. Pick's focus on the roles, possibilities, and limitations faced by these royal women forces us to reevaluate medieval gender norms and their relationship to power and to rethink the power structures of the era. Well illustrated with images of significant objects, Her Father's Daughter is marked by Pick's wide-ranging interdisciplinary approach, which encompasses liturgy, art, manuscripts, architecture, documentary texts, historical narratives, saints' lives, theological treatises, and epigraphy.
