    We favor the variety and relevance of the exercises in relation to the actual tests rather than a large number of exercises which do not always correspond to what we encounter in an exam situation. The first concern is efficiency. Generally speaking, whatever the type of test, it is much less complicated than you imagine.We have decided to give the explanations and the answer to an item immediately after it or in the same chapter. This makes it easier to understand the mechanisms by avoiding having to go back and forth between the 1st and 2nd parts of the book, as is the case in the vast majority of books devoted to selection tests.

    American slaves drew on memories of African musical traditions to construct instruments from carved-out gourds covered with animal skin.

    av Laurent Dubois

    The idea of universal rights is often understood as the product of Europe, but as Dubois demonstrates, it was shaped by the struggle over slavery in the French Caribbean. He examines this revolution by focusing on Guadeloupe, where, in the early 1790s, insurgents on the island fought for equality and formed alliances with besieged Republicans.

  • - The World Cup and the Future of France
    av Laurent Dubois
    336 - 668,-

    When France both hosted and won the World Cup in 1998, the face of its star player, Zinedine Zidane, the son of Algerian immigrants, was projected onto the Arc de Triomphe. During the 2006 World Cup finals, Zidane stunned the country by ending his spectacular career with an assault on an Italian player. In Soccer Empire, Laurent Dubois illuminates the connections between empire and sport by tracing the story of World Cup soccer, from the Cup's French origins in the 1930s to Africa and the Caribbean and back again. As he vividly recounts the lives of two of soccer's most electrifying players, Zidane and his outspoken teammate, Lilian Thuram, Dubois deepens our understanding of the legacies of empire that persist in Europe and brilliantly captures the power of soccer to change the nation and the world.
