Bad Man

Editura: EBURY PR

Anul aparitiei: 2019

Foreword by Mahesh Bhatt 'A remarkable story'-Tina Ambani Growing up on the fringes of our capital city, Gulshan Grover moved to Mumbai to pursue a career in acting in the 1970s. At a time when most wannabe actors held out for the lead, he made a conscious choice to opt for villainous roles. He went on to portray many memorable characters, with a career-defining role in the 1989 blockbuster, Ram Lakhan , that established him firmly as the 'Bad Man' of Bollywood. Many a mainstream potboiler of the era rode to success on his trademark one-liners and grotesque get-ups that have become part of Bollywood folklore. He subsequently moved on to the international arena, among the first actors from Mumbai to do so, in the process becoming one of India's more recognizable faces in international cinema. In this autobiography, Grover tells his story-the films, the journey, the psychological and personal toll of sustaining the 'bad man' image, the competition among Bollywood's villains, the move to playing more rounded characters, and the challenge of doing international films without relocating to another country or opting out of mainstream Hindi cinema.

Legal Lessons: Popularizing Laws in the People's Republic of China, 1949-1989

Editura: HARVARD UNIV PR

Anul aparitiei: 2021

The popularization of basic legal knowledge is an important and contested technique of state governance in China today. Its roots reach back to the early years of Chinese Communist Party rule. Legal Lessons tells the story of how the party-state attempted to mobilize ordinary citizens to learn laws during the early years of the Mao period (1949-1976) and in the decade after Mao's death. Examining case studies such as the dissemination of the 1950 Marriage Law and successive constitutions since 1954 in Beijing and Shanghai, Jennifer Altehenger traces the dissemination of legal knowledge at different levels of state and society. Archival records, internal publications, periodicals, advice manuals, memoirs, and colorful propaganda materials reveal how official attempts to determine and promote "correct" understandings of laws intersected with people's interpretations of written laws and with their experiences of laws in practice. They also show how diverse groups--including party-state leadership, legal experts, publishers, writers, artists, and local officials, along with ordinary people--helped to define the meaning of laws in China's socialist society. Placing mass legal education ...
