Free Download Ruth Buchanan, "The Oxford Handbook of International Law and Development "
English | ISBN: 0192867369 | 2024 | 864 pages | PDF | 39 MB
Since the mid-twentieth century, ‘international law’ and ‘international development’ have become two of the most prominent secular languages through which aspirations about a better world are articulated.. They have shaped the both the treatment and self-understanding of the ‘developing’ world, often by positing the West as a universal model against which developing states, their citizens, and natural environments should be measured and disciplined. In recent years, however, critical scholars have investigated the deep linkages between the concept of development, the doctrines and institutions of international law, and broader projects of ordering at the international level. They have shown how the leading models de-radicalise, if not derail, initiatives to redefine development and pursue other forms of global well-being.

Free Download Pete Orford, "The Oxford Edition of Charles Dickens: Pictures from Italy"
English | ISBN: 0198831617 | 2025 | 384 pages | PDF | 5 MB
The Oxford Dickens edition of Pictures from Italy puts the spotlight on Dickens’s ‘little book’ describing his travels through Italy in 1844 and 1845. Throughout, Dickens offers his withering reviews of Italian masterpieces, his staunch criticism of Catholicism in Rome, tempered with a genuine love and admiration for the people of Italy and the country’s rich cultural heritage. This is the first full critical edition of the work, with detailed research outlining its composition and form, and comparisons made between all editions produced during Dickens’s lifetime. First written as personal letters, then printed as newspaper correspondence, then reshaped once more into a single book, the evolution of Pictures from Italy provides a fascinating insight into Dickens’s creative and editorial process.
