Spanning 65,000 years, this book provides a history of food in Australia from its beginnings, with the arrival of the first peoples and their stewardship of the land, to a present where the production and consumption of food is fraught with anxieties and competing priorities. It describes how food production in Australia is subject to the constraints of climate, water, and soil, leading to centuries of unsustainable agricultural practices post-colonization. Australian food history is also the story of its xenophobia and the immigration policies pursued, which continue to undermine the image of Australia as a model multicultural society. This history of Australian food ends on a positive note, however, as Indigenous peoples take increasing control of how their food is interpreted and marketed.

The city of Kabul in particular and the land of Afghanistan never rested in peace after the incident of 14th of July, 1903, when an eminent Afghan scholar, a divine and a sage was mercilessly and brutally stoned to death by religious fanatics. Amidst prophecies the people and rulers of Kabul, in the aftermath failed to create peace in the land or save themselves from their brutal fate. King Amanullah Khan Son of Amir Habibullah Khan became the ruler and took control of the Afghan army and treasury during the early 20th century. He imprisoned those relatives who claimed to the Kingship, and gained the allegiance of most of the tribal leaders. During the same time Russia was undergoing its Communist Revolution. Amanullah Khan used this as an opportunity to gain Afghanistan's independence. He led a surprise attack against the British forces in India on 13th of May, 1919 beginning The-Third-Anglo-Afghan-War. In 1929 Ammanullah Khan was ousted by an uprising and his brother Nadir Khan took over the control. King Nader Khan was assassinated in 1933 and his 19 year old son, Zahir Shah, became the king and there followed a brief period of peace and recognition for Afghanistan. However, In July, 1973, Zahir Shah was ousted in a bloodless coup and Mohammad Daoud Khan became the new President. In December 24, 1979 Russians invaded Afghanistan and the Red Army occupied the capital. This conflict between the Soviet-allied government and the Mujahedeen lasted more than a decade. In 1992 the city’s control was taken over by local militias after the collapse of Dr. Najibullah's pro-communist government. The Afghan civil war began after these local militias became divided among themselves. As a result thousands of people were either killed or immigrated to neighboring countries. By 1993 electricity and water in the city was completely destroyed and people lived in dark nights for several years. The history of Kabul turned to an even darker period when the Taliban took control of Kabul in September of 1996. They publicly hanged the ex-President Dr. Najibullah and his brother at the Presidential Palace square. They shut down the girls’ schools and forbid women from working outside the home. In October of 2001, after the 9/11 attack in New York and Pentagon, the United States invaded Afghanistan. The NATO forces now plan (2014) to fully or partially leave Afghanistan. Currently the present government of Afghanistan led by President Hamid Karzai is striving for future peace in Afghanistan and the region. Will the land of Kabul witness lasting peace?

For the ancient and modern Maya, the landscape is ruled by powerful entities in the form of geographic features like caves, mountains, springs, and abandoned cities—spirits who must be entreated, through visits and rituals, for permission to plant, harvest, build, or travel their territories. Consequently, such places have served as points of domination and resistance over the millennia—and nowhere is this truer than in Guatemala’s Northern Transversal Strip, the subject of Brent K. S. Woodfill’s War in the Land of True Peace. This strategic region with its wealth of resources—fertile soil, petroleum, and the only noncoastal salt in the Maya lowlands—is the site of some of the most sacred Maya places, and thus also the focus of some of the signal struggles for power in Maya history. In War in the Land of True Peace Woodfill delves into archaeology, epigraphy, ethnohistory, and ethnography to write the biographies of several of these places, covering their histories from the rise of the Preclassic Maya through the spread of transnational corporations in our time. Again and again the region, known since Spanish conquest as Vera Paz, or True Peace, has seen incursion by a foreign group—including the great Maya cities of Tikal and Calakmul, the Hapsburg Empire, Guatemalan military dictatorships, and contemporary corporations—seeking to expand its power. Each outsider, intentionally or not, used the Maya need for access to these places to ensure loyalty. And each time, local Maya pushed back to reclaim the sacred places for their own. From early struggles to remove foreign influence to present-day battles over land tenure and indigenous-run ecotourism parks, this book documents a continuity in Maya culture over several thousand years—and illuminates the world view, with its sense of personhood and religion so different from the West’s, that informs this enduring culture.
