Author: Ahmet Ersoy File Type: pdf This is the second part of the third volume of the four-volume series, a daring project of CEU Press, presenting the most important texts that triggered and shaped the processes of nation-building in the many countries of Central and Southeast Europe. The aim is to confront mainstream and seemingly successful national discourses with each other, thus creating a space for analyzing those narratives of identity which became institutionalized as national canons. After the volumes focousing on the late enlightenment and the emergence of national romanticism, two books elaborate on the phenomenon of modernism in eastern Europe. Modernism is conceived as a counterpart to modernity, the first belonging to the periphery, tha latter to the developed West. Fifty-one texts illustrate the evolution of modernism in Eastern Europe. Essays, articles, poems, or excerpts from longer works offer new opportunities of possible comparisons of the respective national cultures. The volume focuses on the literary and scientific attempts at squaring the circle of individual and collective identities. Often outspokenly critical of the romantic episteme, these texts reflect a more sophisticated and critical stance than in the preceding periods. At the same time, rather than representing a complete rupture, they often continue and confirm the romantic identity narratives, albeit with other means. The volume also presents the ways national minorities sought to legitimize their existence with reference to their cultural and institutional peculiarity. This is the first part of the third volume of the four-volume series, a daring project of CEU Press, presenting the most important texts that triggered and shaped the processes of nation-building in the many countries of Central and Southeast Europe. The aim is to confront mainstream and seemingly successful national discourses with each other, thus creating a space for analyzing those narratives of identity which became institutionalized as national canons. This is the first part of the third volume, containing 59 texts. This volume presents and illustrates the development of the ideologies of nation states, the modern successors of former empires. They exemplify the use modernist ideological framaeworks, from liberalism to socialism, in the context of the fundamental reconfiguration of the political system in this part of Europe between the 1860s and the 1930s. It also gives a panorama of the various solutions proposed for the national question in the region. Why, modernism and not modernity? Modernity implies the West, while modernism was the product of the periphery. The editors use it in a stricter sense, giving it a place between romanticism and anti-modernism, spanning from the 1860s until the decade following World War I.

Johnson, CVU ACCU Reviews, February, 2004)Whether you need a network of ten Linux PCs and a server or a datacenter with a few thousand Unix nodes, you need to know how to automate much of the installation, configuration, and standard system administration. Build your network once using cfengine, and the network build will work, without user intervention, on any hardware you prefer. Automating Linux and Unix System Administration, Second Edition is unique in its focus on how to make the system administrators job easier and more efficient instead of just managing the system administrators time, the book explains the technology to automate repetitive tasks and the methodology to automate successfully.ull Both new and seasoned professionals will profit from industryleading insights into the automation process. l l System administrators will attain a thorough grasp of cfengine, kickstart, and shell scripting for automation. l l After reading all chapters and following all exercises in this book, the reader will be able to set up anything from a Linux datacenter to a small office network. lulWhat youll learnSee how to make changes on many UNIX and Linux hosts at once in a reliable and repeatable manner. ull Learn how to automate things correctly so you only have to do it once, by leveraging the authors experience in setting up small, medium, and large networks. l l Set up a Linux datacenter or a network correctly. l l Explore handling realworld environments where not all hosts are configured alike via a case study of a fictional new datacenter buildout. l l Examine realworld examples for core infrastructure services (DNS, mail, monitoring, log analysis, security, cfengine, imaging) to build on in your environment. l l Understand core system administration best practices, which are a key part of how cfengine and automations deployments are outlined in the book. l l Learn how to make changes reversible, repeatable, and correct the first time through interaction with productapplication stakeholders (programmers, product managers, customers, etc.). lulWho this book is forThis book is for Linux system administrators who want to learn about the software and methodology to automate repetitive tasksregardless of network or datacenter sizein one place. System managers will also find it much easier to think about network technology and automation projects if they read this book. This book is also for anyone who is interested in repeatable and secure infrastructure.
