<p>Dalam dekade terakhir, Badan Usaha Milik Negara (BUMN) bukan lagi sekadar entitas ekonomi, melainkan telah menjadi arena politik paling dinamis di Indonesia. Melalui riset komprehensif dan analisis mendalam, buku "Negara dalam Korporasi: Politik Kekuasaan di Tubuh BUMN Indonesia" membongkar bagaimana kekuasaan negara bekerja dari balik dewan komisaris, ruang rapat direksi, hingga jaringan loyalitas yang membentang dari istana hingga ruang korporasi.</p> <p>Kamaruzzaman Bustamam Ahmad menulis buku ini sebagai peta intelektual untuk memahami politik ekonomi Indonesia dari era Presiden Joko Widodo hingga awal pemerintahan Presiden Prabowo Subianto. Ia memadukan data resmi, laporan media, dan pembacaan teoritik yang tajam untuk memperlihatkan bahwa BUMN bukan sekadar "mesin ekonomi negara," melainkan juga <em>ruang reproduksi kekuasaan</em> tempat elit politik, militer, dan teknokrat saling berkelindan.</p> <p>〓 Isi dan Fokus Buku</p> <ul> <li>Analisis pola pengangkatan direksi dan komisaris di BUMN strategis seperti Pertamina, PLN, Telkom, PTPN, BULOG, MIND ID, dan Bank Himbara.</li> <li>Penelusuran latar belakang sosial, politik, agama, dan jaringan keluarga para pimpinan BUMN dari era Jokowi ke Prabowo.</li> <li>Kajian atas <em>state capitalism</em> Indonesia ー di mana negara, partai politik, dan korporasi melebur menjadi satu sistem kekuasaan.</li> <li>Pembacaan kritis terhadap praktik rangkap jabatan, politik balas budi, dan profesionalisasi semu di tubuh BUMN.</li> <li>Refleksi tentang masa depan relasi antara negara, bisnis, dan demokrasi di Indonesia.</li> </ul> <p>〓 Mengapa Buku Ini Penting</p> <p>Buku ini memberikan wawasan segar tentang bagaimana negara modern beroperasi melalui korporasi publiknya.

【古本】 From Family to Police Force: Security and Belonging on a South Asian Border - Farhana Ibrahim (Cornell University Press) 【紙書籍】 9781501759543

Roundabout Books
タイトル: From Family to Police Force: Security and Belonging on a South Asian Border著者: Farhana Ibrahim出版社: Cornell University Press出版日: 2021年11月15日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。From Family to Police Force illuminates the production and contestation of social, familial, and national order on a South Asian borderland. In the borderland that divides Kutch, a district in the western Indian state of Gujarat, from Sindh, a southern province in Pakistan, there are many forces at work: civil and border police, the air wing of the armed forces, paramilitary forces, and various intelligence agencies that depute officers to the region. These groups are the major actors in the field of security and policing. Farhana Ibrahim offers a bird's-eye view of these groups, drawing on long-standing anthropological engagement with the region. She observes policing on multiple levels, showing in detail that the nation-state is only one of the scales at which policing is enacted at a borderland. Ibrahim draws on multiple sources and forms of policing structure to illuminate everyday interaction on the personal scale, bringing families and individuals into the broader picture. From Family to Police Force looks beyond the obvious sites, sources, and modes of policing to show the distinctions between the act of policing and the institution of the police. 4,728円

Hot Springs, Arkansas was home to healing waters, Art Deco splendor, and America's original national parkーas well as horse racing, nearly a dozen illegal casinos, countless backrooms and brothels, and some of the country's most bald-faced criminals.<br /> Gangsters, gamblers, and gamines: all once flocked to America's forgotten capital of vice, a place where small-town hustlers and bigtime high-rollers could make their fortunes, and hide from the law. <em>The Vapors</em> is the extraordinary story of three individualsーspanning the golden decades of Hot Springs, from the 1930s through the 1960sーand the lavish casino whose spectacular rise and fall would bring them together before blowing them apart.<br /> Hazel Hill was still a young girl when legendary mobster Owney Madden rolled into town in his convertible, fresh off a crime spree in New York. He quickly established himself as the gentleman Godfather of Hot Springs, cutting barroom deals and buying stakes in the clubs at which Hazel made her livingーand drank away her sorrows. Owney's prot?g? was Dane Harris, the son of a Cherokee bootlegger who rose through the town's ranks to become Boss Gambler. It was his idea to build The Vapors, a pleasure palace more spectacular than any the town had ever seen, and an establishment to rival anything on the Vegas Strip or Broadway in sophistication and supercharged glamour.<br /> In this riveting work of forgotten history, native Arkansan David Hill plots the trajectory of everything from organized crime to America's fraught racial past, examining how a town synonymous with white gangsters supported a burgeoning black middle class. He reveals how the louche underbelly of the South was also home to veterans hospitals and baseball's spring training grounds, giving rise to everyone from Babe Ruth to President Bill Clinton. Infused with the sights and sounds of America's entertainment heydayーjazz orchestras and auctioneers, slot machines and suited comediansー <em>The Vapors</em> is an arresting glimpse into a bygone era of American vice.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,921円

Negotiating Pharmaceutical Uncertainty Women's Agency in a South African HIV Prevention Trial【電子書籍】[ Eirik Saethre ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Telling the story of a clinical trial testing an innovative gel designed to prevent women from contracting HIV, <em>Negotiating Pharmaceutical Uncertainty</em> provides new insight into the complex and contradictory relationship between medical researchers and their subjects. Although clinical trials attempt to control and monitor participants' bodies, Saethre and Stadler argue that the inherent uncertainty of medical testing can create unanticipated opportunities for women to exercise control over their health, sexuality, and social relationships. Combining a critical analysis of the social production of biomedical knowledge and technologies with a detailed ethnography of the lives of female South African trial participants, this book brings to light issues of economic exclusion, racial disparity, and spiritual insecurity in Johannesburg's townships. Built on a series of tales ranging from strategy sessions at the National Institutes of Health to witchcraft accusations against the trial, <em>Negotiating Pharmaceutical Uncertainty</em> illuminates the everyday social lives of clinical trials.</p> <p>As embedded anthropologists, Saethre and Stadler provide a unique and nuanced perspective of the reality of a clinical trial that is often hidden from view.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,604円

Crescendo The True Story of a Musical Genius Who Forever Changed a Southern Town【電子書籍】[ Allen Cheney ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A hidden story of human triumph, <em>Crescendo</em> takes you on the rare journey of a musical prodigy who changed an entire community forever.</strong></p> <p>More than eighty years ago, a musical prodigy with a brilliant mind was born into a poor, uneducated, and abusive family in rural South Georgia. At three years of age, Fred Allen could play Mozart sonatas on the piano without missing a note. But in spite of his obvious talent, Fred’s parents discouraged him from expressing his creativity and intelligence, even going so far as locking him away from the old piano in their home. Forced to fend for himself through his adolescent years, Fred knew that if he was ever to make something of himself, he would need to find a way to rise above his broken background. With incredible effort, and a few miracles along the way, Fred managed to do just that, eventually earning acceptance into The Julliard School in New York City. While simultaneously attending Juilliard, Union Theological Seminary, and Columbia University, he also began directing a local church choir, where he caught the attention of the music industry.</p> <p>During the musical revolution of the 1960s, Fred earned numerous Grammy nominations and built a growing reputation within the industry. But just as his new career was beginning to take off, Fred was faced with an impossible decision. His wife announced that she no longer wanted to raise their daughter in New York City and was heading home to the South. Fred had come so far from the pain and brokenness of his past, he couldn’t imagine giving up everything just to return to his childhood home.</p> <p>Trying not to think about what could have been, Fred took a job as a high school music teacher in his hometown of Thomasville, Georgia, a community of only 30,000 people. Far from the executive suites of RCA and the allure of Broadway, Fred never could have imagined that his new role would not only transform his life but also change an entire community forever.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,956円

【古本】 Fall of Rome - Martha Southgate (Scribner) 【紙書籍】 9780684865003

Roundabout Books
タイトル: Fall of Rome著者: Martha Southgate出版社: Scribner出版日: 2002年01月01日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。 "WHAT IS IT ABOUT THIS FLESH THAT COVERS ME THAT MAKES IT A PART OF EVERY TRANSACTION I CONDUCT?" In this compelling novel of race, class, and integrity, three characters confront the inevitable tensions that arise from living at the margins of the elite. Latin instructor Jerome Washington is a man out of place. The lone African-American teacher at the Chelsea School, an all-boys boarding school in Connecticut, he has championed the classical virtues of rigor and discipline since he was hired nearly two decades ago. Nicknamed "Wooden Washington" by his students, he has spent his career -- and his life -- at Chelsea trying not to appear too "racial": He is reserved, controlled, seemingly content with his isolated life. Into his classroom one autumn morning steps Rashid Bryson, a promising African-American student from New York City. He sees in Washington a potential ally, a man who is sure to understand the younger man's need to find his bearings in this citadel of the white status quo. But to Bryson's surprise and dismay, Washington responds un-expectedly to him. It is up to Jana Hansen, herself a newcomer to Chelsea, to come to Bryson's aid. A middle-aged white divorcee who used to teach public school in Cleveland, she is as foreign to the sylvan self-possession of the Chelsea School as Washington and Bryson are. As the three get to know one another, and as they struggle with their individual loss, they begin their journey toward an inevitable and ultimately tragic confrontation that is both painful and life-altering. Told from three different perspectives, "The Fall of Rome" explores powerful and timely issues as it unfolds inexorably, like the classical tragediesthat were the glory of ancient civilizations. 2,758円

Marriage, Sex and Death The Family and the Fall of the Roman West【電子書籍】[ Emma Southon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>By the end of the fifth century, with the structural collapse of the Roman Empire in the west, Western Europe had fallen into the so-called Dark Ages. With the power of Rome removed, the Catholic Church stepped in to fill the void. Its political rise, alongside that of the Germanic kingdoms, led to dramatic changes in law, politics, power, and culture. Against the backdrop of that upheaval, the family became a vitally important area of focus for cultural struggles related to morality, law, and tradition. This book explores those battles in order to demonstrate, through the family, the intersections between Roman and Christian legal culture, thought, and political power.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,279円

Beyond the Buffalo River A South African Story【電子書籍】[ Geoff and Barb Solarsh ]

<p><em>Beyond the Buffalo</em> is a personal memoir by two young and idealistic health professionals, who in the aftermath of the 1976 Soweto riots, made the decision to move to a small rural hospital in a black homeland, at the height of apartheid in South Africa. At this time of social and political upheaval, they felt called to go to a place where they might be able to make a small difference and better understand what was happening in the country of their birth.</p> <p>The three years that followed were to change their lives. Their time together at Charles Johnson Memorial Hospital in the Nqutu district of KwaZulu challenged the very tenets of the lives of privilege they had lived and fostered a love for their country and all its people. It would influence their personal values and professional directions for the next 20 years in South Africa and carry over into their work in Australia later in their lives.</p> <p>This book is written in two distinct voices and, with its many colourful images, paints an intimate picture of life in a far-flung corner of South Africa in the mid-1970's and uncovers inspiration and hope in the most unlikely of places.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,936円

Tracks Beneath the Clay: Tracks Beneath the Clay A Southern Gothic Tale of Secrets and Silence【電子書籍】[ Leia Kay ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Every family carries beginnings they did not choose and shadows they cannot escape.</strong></p> <p>When Janice is sent to rural Georgia to fix up her family's old farmhouse, she expects peeling wallpaper and sagging floors, not a locked cellar, a hidden map, and whispers in the orchard. The project is meant to bring in extra income for her ailing mother, but the land has other plans.</p> <p>As she begins the work, Janice discovers letters from 1860 written by her ancestor, <strong>Natalie O'Connell</strong>, a Northern woman who came South and refused to stay silent. What unfolds is a haunting story of two women, separated by more than a century, yet bound by the same soil and the same dark legacy.</p> <p><strong>In the summer of 1860</strong>, Natalie arrives at Peachtree Plantation full of idealism and curiosity. Beneath the graceful manners and candlelit suppers, she senses something unspoken, an unease that deepens as her cousin Billy's cruelty begins to surface. When enslaved women start to disappear and the orchard itself seems to hum with warning, Natalie risks everything to protect those he targets. Her choices will echo through generations.</p> <p><strong>More than a century later</strong>, Janice feels that echo in the creak of the floors and the restless hush of the orchard outside her window. As she uncovers the truth Natalie left behind, she realizes the past is not buried at all; it is waiting.</p> <p><em>Tracks Beneath the Clay</em> weaves a <strong>dual-timeline Southern Gothic</strong> tale of legacy, justice, and the women who refuse to be silenced. It explores how memory clings to land, how truth survives in the face of cruelty, and how courage can cross the boundaries of time.</p> <p><strong>Fans of historical fiction, haunting mysteries, and Southern Gothic suspense will be drawn to this deeply atmospheric novel</strong>, a story that asks what it means to speak when others stay silent and how the past continues to shape those who inherit it.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 829円

Indigenous Spirits and Global Aspirations in a Southeast Asian Borderland Timor-Leste's Oecussi Enclave【電子書籍】[ Michael Rose ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Over the past 40 years, life in Timor-Leste has changed radically. Before 1975 most of the population lived in highland villages, spoke local languages, and rarely used money. Today many have moved to peri-urban lowland settlements, and even those whose lives remain dominated by customary ways understand that those of their children will not. For the Atoni Pah Meto of Timor-Leste's remote Oecussi Enclave, the world was neatly divided into two distinct categories: the <em>meto</em> (indigenous), and the <em>kase</em> (foreign).
