Historian Calvin Schermerhorn traces four hundred years of Black dispossession and decapitalization—what Frederick Douglass called plunder—through the stories of families who have strived to earn and keep the fruits of their toils. Their struggles reveal that the ever-evolving strategies to strip Black income and wealth have been critical to sustaining a structure of racialized disadvantage. These accounts also tell of the quiet heroism of those who worked to overcome obstacles and defy the plunder.

ఎండ్లూరి మానస కథలు చదువుతూ ఉంటే కుల వివక్ష సమకాలీన అవతారం అవగతమవుతుంది. మనుషుల ప్రవర్తన మీద హిందూ సంస్కృతి భావజాలాల పట్టు ఎంత బలంగా ఉందో కనిపిస్తుంది. టెక్నాలజీని తలదన్నుతున్న కులాలజీ అనుభవంలోకొస్తుంది. మన ఆర్థిక హోదాలతో నిమిత్తం లేని సాంఘీక హోదా మనల్ని ఉక్కిరి బిక్కిరి చేస్తుంది. దళిత క్రైస్తవ స్త్రీవాదం నుంచి జనరల్ స్త్రీవాదం వరకు పరచుకున్న బతుకు చిత్రాలు సెన్సిబుల్ చదువరుల్ని ఒకరకమయిన మానసిక పోటుకు గురిచేస్తాయి. చట్రాన్ని చ్ఛేదించుకునే శిల్పం స్వాగతిస్తుంది. మూసలో ఇమడని కథనం, మామూలుగా సాగిపోయే ప్రయోగాత్మక కథానిర్మాణం మానస కథల్ని అలాదు స్థానంలో నిలుపుతాయి.

Today, the majority of the peoples of the planet live in nation-states, based upon the idea, if never the reality, of a single people, a single culture, a single rule of law, and a single source of sovereign authority. But will they continue to do so in the future? None of the major challenges that confront humanity today—from climate change to disease, from terrorism to mass migration—can be handled effectively by single nation-states, no matter how powerful.

What Went Wrong describes exactly what went wrong with the American economy, how countries around the world have avoided these problems, and what we need to do to get back on the right track.

From one of the world’s most celebrated intellectuals, a brilliantly insightful work that explains how we think about each other’s thoughts about each other’s thoughts, ad infinitum. It sounds impossible, but Steven Pinker shows that we do it all the time. This awareness, which we experience as something that is public or “out there,” is called common knowledge, and it has a momentous impact on our social, political, and economic lives.

Mariana Enriquez—called by The New York Times a “sorceress of horror”—has been fascinated by the haunting beauty of cemeteries since she was a teenager. She has visited them frequently, a goth flaneur taking notes on her aesthetic obsession as she walks among the headstones, “where dying seems much more interesting than being alive.”

Der NEW-YORK-TIMES-BESTSELLER endlich auf Deutsch. Was passiert am Lebensende? Sehen wir unser Leben wie "einen Film" vor unseren Augen ablaufen? Ist da ein Licht, auf das wir zugehen? Ein Tunnel? Hospizpflegerin Hadley Vlahos hat schon viele Menschen auf ihrem letzten Weg begleitet und weiß: Wir sterben so individuell, wie wir gelebt haben. Aber es gibt da dieses Dazwischen, den Raum, in dem sich Leben und Tod berühren. Und was dort passiert, ist so unglaublich, so berührend, so tief bewegend, dass sie sich sicher ist: Der Tod ist nicht das Ende.

O Breve Manual de Conservadorismo é uma síntese disruptiva, vigorosa e sarcástica do que realmente significa ser conservador. Russell Kirk escreveu este livro como uma introdução acessível às ideias conservadoras, e nele visou todos os públicos, mesmo aqueles mais jovens ou menos experientes. Embora o movimento conservador moderno tenha começado com Russell Kirk, em 1953, hoje, porém, se encontra contestado por todos os lados e fragmentado em diversas frentes e opiniões divergentes, de maneira que ninguém parece saber dizer com confiança o que significa ser conservador.

「世間の人々が若者に不満を持つのは古今東西変わらないようで、古代エジプトの遺跡の壁画にも『近頃の若者は……』って、書いてあったらしい。

In Food, John Coveney examines "food as . . . " identity, politics, industry, regulation, the environment, justice, and gastronomy. He explores how food helps us understand what it means to be human.

The “pink tax” has gained widespread recognition in recent years, but what happens when you look at the costs that define a woman’s entire life, especially across racial lines? In The Double Tax, Harvard researcher Anna Gifty Opoku-Agyeman summarizes the disparities that women face as they navigate life’s biggest moments. Not only do the numbers reveal that women incur higher costs than men, but also that Black and white women lead vastly different lives, marked by dramatic gaps in job opportunities, salaries, housing costs, childcare access, and generational wealth.

Postal paths span the length and breadth of Britain - from the furthermost corners of the Outer Hebrides to the isolated communities clinging to the cliffs of the Rame Peninsula in south-east Cornwall. For over 200 years, postmen and women have delivered post to homes across Britain on foot, no matter how remote. A chance remark by a farmer about a Postman's Path led Alan Cleaver on a quest to discover more about this network of lanes, short-cuts and footpaths in the British landscape.

Drawing on personal experience, as well as philosophy and sociology, Daniel Schreiber explores the tension between the desire for solitude and freedom, and for companionship, intimacy and love. Along the way he illuminates the role that friendships play in our lives—can they be a response to the loss of meaning in a world in crisis? A profoundly enlightening book, Alone explores how we want to live.

For the first 200,000 years, humanity lived in egalitarian groups and successfully thwarted any individual from ruling permanently. Our ancestors avoided a dominance hierarchy. Then, around 12,000 years ago, that began to change. The global Goliath has incentivised the creation of ever faster and more interconnected systems, all of which exacerbate the severity of our fall. Whether you are worried about climate change, nuclear weapons, or over-extended, just-in-time supply chains, the answer is the same: we must learn to democratically control Goliath, or we might face a final collapse.
