History is strewn with redundancy and ruin. Though some falls from power are more graceful than others, there is something to be learned from each one. Here are a selection of great collapses to entertain and inform.
Mussolini is overthrown
Ousted from power and arrested in the summer of 1943, Mussolini discovered that his enforced redundancy policy offered no protection, benefits or future within politics whatsoever. Liberated by Nazi Germany, maintained as a puppet ruler to keep fascism alive in Italy and later executed by Communist partisans, his career could quite rightly be said to have been destroyed when he was confronted by the Italian state.
A success for redundancy procedure?: Not entirely. No matter how brutal and incompetent an employee may be, can you ever justify his subsequent execution?
Society abandons the Tram
The elegant and environmentally sound Tram... what could possibly force the king of the road into unsought redundancy? The gas-guzzling, road-ruling, steam-belching automobile, that's what.
A success for redundancy procedure?: If you can call traffic, smog and road rage a success then yes, this was the greatest success of all time.
Zeus, King of the Gods, makes way for Christianity
Worshipped as supreme ruler of all things by the ancient Greeks, Zeus' career could really only head one way... down. Redundancy came slowly for Zeus as his popularity slowly waned from the advent of Christianity in the 3rd century CE onwards. Temples, sacrifices, oracles and fellow gods all waned into obscurity until nobody was left to worship him as the mightiest of all deities.
A success for redundancy procedure?: Yes. Slowly and gently let go by the world, Zeus had every opportunity to get the ball rolling on new plans and win over new followers, the fault for failing to do so lies squarely with him.
The MiniDisc, cut down at the hands of the Mp3
"One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh", says the Biblical book of Ecclesiastes, in this case it was the iPod generation. How revolutionary the MiniDisc seemed when it was first released in 1992; it combined the audio quality of a CD player with the versatility of a tape. Run, jump, skip, dance and your home-recorded discs would keep on playing without interruption. But as the Mp3 format was adopted and CD burners grew ever cheaper redundancy was inevitable for Sony's offering. With writeable CDs so cheap you could even use them as frisbees, the tough little MiniDisc was destined to be the Eight-Track Tape of the 90's.
A success for redundancy procedure?: Not particularly. It may be a dog-eat-dog industry, but the MiniDisc never reached its prime and can rightly feel cheated of the respect it deserved.
The Israelites leave Egypt
It was a complex situation. Though, as slaves, the Israelites weren't technically employees, Pharaoh was in no position to deny them voluntary redundancy. It was that or endure a seemingly endless cycle of ruin and pestilence. But what of the presumably thriving slave management industry in the Nile Delta? What of Egyptian jobs for Egyptian workers? Is the ability to whip an indentured worker a transferable skill?
A success for redundancy procedure?: Justified though Moses and the Israelites were, job security is a two way process. Blackmail your way out of every obligation and you'll soon find yourself blacklisted.

Italian Lira $132.24 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The lira (plural lire) was the currency of Italy between 1861 and 2002. Between 1999 and 2002, the Italian lira was officially a national subunit of the euro. However, physical payments could only be made in lire, as no euro coins and notes were available. The lira was also the currency of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy between 1807 and 1814. The term originates from the value of a pound weight (Latin: libra) of high purity silver and as such is a direct cognate of the British pound sterling; in some countries, such as Cyprus and Malta, the words lira and pound were used as equivalents, before the euro was adopted in 2008 in the two countries. L, sometimes in a doublecrossed script form ( ), was usually used as the symbol. Until the Second World War, it was subdivided into 100 centesimi (singular: centesimo), which translates to one hundredth.

Lire Sembene Ousmane. Le Mandat $24.33 Ousmane Semb ne started writing by 1952. The Black Docker, his first novel inspired by the Marseille experience was published in 1956 by Debresse. In 1957, Amiot Dumont published O Pays, mon beau Peuple, a caustic critic of the colonial plight. This second inaugural piece, clearly autobiographical and sentimental is followed up by a vast knowledge of the strike of the Dakar-Niger railway workers: God's Bits of Wood published in 1960 by Livre Contemporain. In 1961, Pr sence Africaine pulished his collection of short stories, Volta que, in 1964 the first volume of l'Harmattan which is a replay of the 28th September 1958 referendum in black Africa and in 1966 Vehi-Ciosane followed by The Money Order. To this date with six published novels and a renown Cinematographer, Ousmane Semb ne with the help of his sharp pen and his critical and observant look decides to examine the fate that the new bourgeoisie and the administrative bureaucracy mete on the downtrodden of this ignominious beauty, Dakar, the Capital of an African nation in the wake of independence. Thanks to a money order that Ibrahima Dieng wants to cash, the film maker/writer takes this character through the urban administrative labyrinth, through neighbourly disputes and through family life in the neighbourhood, highlighting and pointing in passing the crossings, abuses, vices and vicissitudes which make up this segment of life, in every aspect, exemplary. The story unfolds with the arrival of a postman carrying a letter and a problematic money order; it ends on the image of the postman handing a letter to Dieng, when a woman carrying a baby on her back comes in and interrupts them to expose the origins of her misfortunes, asking for help. |

Lire Ma Ville Sans Papiers $124.27 Le phenomene de la clandestinite est une vraie question sociale remettant en question la facon dont la societe gere, integre ou rejette lindigence et l etranger. Cet ouvrage entend etudier ce phenomene dun point de vue geographique, tout en mobilisant des disciplines connexes anthropologie, sociologie et science politique pour tenter dinscrire dans le territoire une forme derrance connue et discriminee depuis la naissance de la citoyennete. Il sagit egalement, dans un deuxieme temps, de demontrer que les outils de la geographie sont dune grande pertinence pour rendre compte dun acces inegal a la ville. Ce livre se termine par lanalyse dentretiens menes avec des personnes sans titre de sejour vivant a Lausanne, en Suisse. Cette analyse reinterroge certains concepts de la geographie espace public, capital spatial, segregation spatiale notamment et montre que la ville etudiee est sujette a representations et pratiques dominees, partielles et originales.
