Book Description
L'exception et la spécificité sportives ont longtemps été mises en avant pour contester l'existence d'un salariat sportif. Or, objectivement, beaucoup de sportifs exercent leur activité dans des conditions qui les placent sous le ressort du droit du travail. Cet ouvrage en étudie les conséquences et les auteurs se focalisent davantage sur les règles propres aux relations salariales dans le sport plutôt que sur les considérations générales du droit du travail.

Book Description
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.How seriously are we taking our constitutional, inalienable rights these days? There is certainly plenty of focus on power, money and success. But where will that get you if in the end you fail to achieve the ultimate right – happiness? Time to get back on track and aim for what really matters – happiness.In SUPERMOM: The Lost Child we explore how, as children growing up in dysfunctional families, we got off track and lost the most precious aspect of ourselves – our inner child. Since, as we all know, there is nothing new under the sun, neither is there anything new in this book. So why bother to read it you might ask yourself? The only major and very important difference is that this book is approached from the perspective of the layperson – not the book learned professionals who preach what theories they learned in books or the loftiest of the lofty spiritual gurus. Here you will find the wisdom of a Jane Q Citizen who merely seized every possible opportunity to pursue happiness and actually did it!There are many roads to nirvana. Unfortunately specific disciplines (religions, philosophies, psychological theories, organizations, etc.) are inclined to push their own good ideas as the “way.” But let's face it. A cake made out of nothing but flour would be a pretty major failure. And a pursuit of happiness conjured up from only a finite number of possibilities would also prove to be a major disappointment in accomplishing that important ultimate goal.In keeping with what we hear will be the theme of the coming human cycle (beginning December 2012 and continuing on the the following 26,000 years), this book will approach the pursuit of happiness from the perspective of expanded consciousness – the inclusion of multiple approaches to finally achieving true happiness.This is not one more “way” but a recipe of lots of yummy possibilities to living a happier, more peaceful life.

Book Description
"Open-air Prison, Terror, Resistance, Occupation, Siege, Trauma: irrespective of when, where, and to whom the word is uttered, "Gaza" immediately evokes an abundance of metaphors. Similarly, a host of metaphors also recall Gaza: Crisis, Exception, Refugees, Destitution, Tunnels, Persistence. This book brings together journalists, writers, doctors, academics and others, who use metaphor to record and historicise Gaza, to contextualise its everyday realities, interrogate its representations and provide an understanding of its real and symbolic significance. Offering perspectives from residents and observers, these essays touch on life and survival, the making of the Gaza Strip and its increasing isolation, the discursive and visual tools that have often obscured the real Gaza, and explore what Gaza contributes to our understanding of exception, inequality, dispossession, bio-politics, necro-power and other terms which we rely on to make sense of our world. The contributors reveal the manner of Gaza's historical and spatial creation, to show that Gaza is more than simply a metaphor for far-away humanitarian disaster, or a location of incomprehensible violence-- it is above all an inseparable part of Palestine's past, present, and future, and of the condition of dispossession"--Publishers.

Book Description
During May 1968, students and workers in France united in the biggest strike and the largest mass movement in French history. Protesting capitalism, American imperialism, and Gaullism, 9 million people from all walks of life, from shipbuilders to department store clerks, stopped working. The nation was paralyzed—no sector of the workplace was untouched. Yet, just thirty years later, the mainstream image of May '68 in France has become that of a mellow youth revolt, a cultural transformation stripped of its violence and profound sociopolitical implications. Kristin Ross shows how the current official memory of May '68 came to serve a political agenda antithetical to the movement's aspirations. She examines the roles played by sociologists, repentant ex-student leaders, and the mainstream media in giving what was a political event a predominantly cultural and ethical meaning. Recovering the political language of May '68 through the tracts, pamphlets, and documentary film footage of the era, Ross reveals how the original movement, concerned above all with the question of equality, gained a new and counterfeit history, one that erased police violence and the deaths of participants, removed workers from the picture, and eliminated all traces of anti-Americanism, anti-imperialism, and the influences of Algeria and Vietnam. May '68 and Its Afterlives is especially timely given the rise of a new mass political movement opposing global capitalism, from labor strikes and anti-McDonald's protests in France to the demonstrations against the World Trade Organization in Seattle.

Book Description
Using previously classified documents and original interviews, The Other Alliance examines the channels of cooperation between American and West German student movements throughout the 1960s and early 1970s, and the reactions these relationships provoked from the U.S. government. Revising the standard narratives of American and West German social mobilization, Martin Klimke demonstrates the strong transnational connections between New Left groups on both sides of the Atlantic. Klimke shows that the cold war partnership of the American and German governments was mirrored by a coalition of rebelling counterelites, whose common political origins and opposition to the Vietnam War played a vital role in generating dissent in the United States and Europe. American protest techniques such as the "sit-in" or "teach-in" became crucial components of the main organization driving student activism in West Germany--the German Socialist Student League--and motivated American and German student activists to construct networks against global imperialism. Klimke traces the impact that Black Power and Germany's unresolved National Socialist past had on the German student movement; he investigates how U.S. government agencies, such as the State Department's Interagency Youth Committee, advised American policymakers on confrontations with student unrest abroad; and he highlights the challenges student protesters posed to cold war alliances. Exploring the catalysts of cross-pollination between student protest movements on two continents, The Other Alliance is a pioneering work of transnational history.

Book Description
1968: The World Transformed presents a global perspective on the tumultuous events of the most crucial year in the era of the Cold War. By interpreting 1968 as a transnational phenomenon, authors from Europe and the United States explain why the crises of 1968 erupted almost simultaneously throughout the world. Together, the eighteen chapters provide an interdisciplinary and comparative approach to the rise and fall of protest movements worldwide. The book represents an effort to integrate international relations, the role of media, and the cross-cultural exchange of people and ideas into the history of that year. 1968 emerges as a global phenomenon because of the linkages between domestic and international affairs, the powerful influence of the media, the networks of communication among activists, and the shared opposition to the domestic and international status quo in the name of freedom and self-determination.

Book Description
France experienced a period of crisis following World War I when the relationship between the nation and its colonies became a subject of public debate. The French Imperial Nation-State focuses on two intersecting movements that redefined imperial politics—colonial humanism led by administrative reformers in West Africa and the Paris-based Negritude project, comprising African and Caribbean elites. Gary Wilder develops a sophisticated account of the contradictory character of colonial government and examines the cultural nationalism of Negritude as a multifaceted movement rooted in an alternative black public sphere. He argues that interwar France must be understood as an imperial nation-state—an integrated sociopolitical system that linked a parliamentary republic to an administrative empire. An interdisciplinary study of colonial modernity combining French history, colonial studies, and social theory, The French Imperial Nation-State will compel readers to revise conventional assumptions about the distinctions between republicanism and racism, metropolitan and colonial societies, and national and transnational processes.
