Condition: new. Roma, 2019; br., pp. 305, ill. (Biblioteca/Antropologia). Da più di cinquant'anni i Kwara'ae lasciano Malaita, la loro isola di origine, per costruirsi una nuova vita a Honiara, capitale delle Isole Salomone. Quando raccontano della loro condizione, parlano di Malaita come di un luogo primitivo, isolato e senza speranza di sviluppo, e vedono invece Honiara come la moderna città di arrivo, dove tutto può succedere. Tuttavia, Malaita è anche un simbolo di unità, cooperazione e di forte identità. Honiara, al contrario, è il luogo dove regnano diversità, competizione, dove gli individui vivono separati, dove la vita è dura. Ciononostante, i Kwara'ae continuano a lasciare Malaita e a stabilirsi a Honiara. Perché? C'è chi sostiene che i migranti come loro non facciano che peggiorare la città. Questo libro racconta invece come i Kwara'ae di Honiara si impegnino ogni giorno per rendere Honiara un posto migliore dove vivere, superando le difficoltà della vita urbana e adattando creativamente i valori della loro cultura. Prefazione di David Graeber.

Brossura Editoriale. Condition: As New. 8vo, br. ed. American scholar Jared Diamond deploys his powers of interpretation to great effect in Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed, which seeks to understand the meaning behind the available evidence describing societies that have survived and those that have withered and died. Why, for example, did the Norsemen of Scandinavia who colonized Greenland in the early tenth century not survive, while the inhabitants of Highland New Guinea did? With the evidence to hand, Diamond notes that a society's collapse tends to be preceded by a severe reduction in population and considerable decreases in political, economic and social complexity. Delving even deeper, Diamond isolates five major factors determine the success or failure of human societies in all periods of history: environmental degradation, which occurs when an ecosystem deteriorates as its resources are exhausted; climate change (natural or man-made); hostile neighbors; weakened trading partners; and access or otherwise to the resources that enable the society to adapt its challenges. The breadth of Diamond's research provides the springboard from which to reach these definitions, but it inevitably also introduces complications; how can evidence produced by specialists in so many different disciplines be compared? Diamond's ability to understand the meaning of the evidence at hand - and his readiness to seek and supply clarifications of meaning where necessary - underpin his achievement, and comprise a textbook example of how interpretative skills can provide a framework for strong critical thinking.
