Gaan Suid-Afrika oukei wees?

Jan-Jan Joubert

Gaan Suid-Afrika oukei wees?

In Suid-Afrika, so word gesê, gebeur die beste en die slegste nooit. Maar hoe weet ons die land gaan nie dié keer oor die afgrond tuimel nie? Suid-Afrikaners wat keelvol is vir korrupsie – maar lief vir die land – het byna 'n dekade lank hoopvol daarna uitgesien dat Jacob Zuma uit die kussings gelig word. Nou is Cyril Ramaphosa aan die stuur, maar steeds lyk die toekoms onseker. Sedert Ramaphosa die Uniegebou betrek het, het die werkloosheidskoers die hoogte ingeskiet. Die ekonomie groei...

Will South Africa Be Okay?

In South Africa, they say, the best – and the worst – never happens. But how do we know the country is not going to tumble down the precipice this time? South Africans who are fed up with corruption – but love the country – have been waiting hopefully for nearly a decade for the Zuma era to come to an end. Now Cyril Ramaphosa is in charge, yet the future still seems uncertain. Since Ramaphosa moved into the Union Buildings, the unemployment rate has skyrocketed. The economy is stagnant. With...

Mangaung: Kings and Kingmakers

In Mangaung: Kings and Kingmakers political journalist Mandy Rossouw takes us from the last elective conference of the ANC, at Polokwane, to the present day, where we’re introduced to the eight men who have the most influence on what will happen at Mangaung, and following that, in the race to the national poll in 2014.

Restless Nation

William Gumede

Restless Nation

South Africa's rainbow nation has become a restless nation. Citizens are faced with poor service delivery and corruption, while a new bling culture has infected both politics and business. Renowned political commentator William Gumede takes a fearless look at these and other burning issues which threaten the South African democracy: leadership battles within the ANC, attacks on the constitution, black economic empowerment strategies which only benefit a few, racism and moral bankruptcy....

The United States Government Shutdowns and Emergency Declarations

A government shutdown occurs when Congress does not approve of or the President rejects the federal budget for the upcoming fiscal year. Since the 1990s, Congress has often failed to pass the twelve to thirteen appropriation bills that set government-wide spending. In their stead they pass «continuing resolutions (CR)» to extend the existing spending law at or near current levels, and «omnibus» bills that combine many appropriations bills into one. <br...

A Question of Order

Basharat Peer

A Question of Order

What happens when a democratically elected leader evolves into an authoritarian ruler, limiting press freedom, civil liberties, and religious and ethnic tolerance? India and Turkey are two of the world's biggest democracies –multi-ethnic nations that rose from their imperial past to be founded on the values of modernity. They have fair elections, open markets, and freedom of religion. Yet this is an account of how the charismatic strongmen Narendra Modi, in India, and Recep Tyyip Erdogan,...

Win-win -ajattelu

Win-win –toiminnassa molemmat osapuolet voittavat ja yhteinen voitto on suurempi kuin yksin voidaan mitenkÃ¤Ã¤n saavuttaa. Ei ole ylÃ¤rajaa sille, kuinka hyvÃ¤ tulos yhdessÃ¤ on mahdollista saada verrattuna vain oman edun tavoitteluun. Aito win-win –ajattelu ei ole peliÃ¤ toista vastaan, mistÃ¤ kaikki peliteoreettiset ratkaisut nÃ¤yttÃ¤vÃ¤t lÃ¤htevÃ¤n, vaan se on tÃ¤ysipainoista yhteistyÃ¶tÃ¤ kaikkien pelaajien kesken.

Thirty Years Later . . . Catching Up with the Marcos-Era Crimes

Until they were expelled from power thirty years ago, in early 1986, the late dictator Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos (she, the Shoe Queen) jointly ruled the Philippines with impunity for 20+ years. They were an efficient cash-and-carry team—while he raided the national till, she shopped 'til she dropped. In the words of the US congressman investigating them, "Compared to her (Imelda), Marie Antoinette was a bag lady," . . . while Ferdinand made master embezzler...

Creating Freedom

Creating Freedom

In the run up to the June 8th General Election, Raoul Martinez and his publisher have decided to make the ebook of his book Creating Freedom free to readers in the UK so that the ideas and knowledge contained within it can be as widely disseminated as possible. We are far less free than we like to think. In Creating Freedom, Raoul Martinez exposes the mechanisms of control that pervade our lives and the myths on which they depend. Exploring the lottery of our birth, the coercive...

Dear Oxbridge - Liebesbrief an England

Ein Abschiedsbrief an ein geliebtes Stück Europa, das nicht mehr dazugehören will. Als Nele Pollatschek am 23. Juni 2016 nach Oxford unterwegs ist, wo sie jahrelang studiert hat, ahnt sie nicht, dass sie am nächsten Tag zum Brexit-Profiteur wider Willen werden wird. Über Nacht löst sich wegen des Währungszerfalls ihr Studienschuldenberg fast in Luft auf – gleichzeitig aber durchlebt sie den Schock ihres Lebens: Die Briten wollen mit Europäern wie ihr nichts mehr zu tun haben.

Above the Law - The Inside Story of How the Justice Department Tried to Subvert President Trump (Unabridged)

Social Class in Europe

Étienne Penissat

Social Class in Europe

Over the last ten years the issue of Europe has been placed at the centre of major political conflicts, revealing profound splits in society. These splits are represented in terms of an opposition between those countries on the losing and those on the winning sides of globalisation. Inequalities beyond those nations are critically absent from the debate.Based on major European statistical surveys, the new research in this work presents a map of social classes inspired by Pierre Bourdieu’s...

Sinews of War and Trade

Sinews of War and Trade

On the map of global trade, China is now the factory of the world. A parade of ships full of raw commodities—iron ore, coal, oil—arrive in its ports, and fleets of container ships leave with manufactured goods in all directions. The oil that fuels China’s manufacturing comes primarily from the Arabian peninsula. Much of the material shipped from China are transported through the ports of Arabian peninsula, Dubai’s Jabal Ali port foremost among them. China’s ‘maritime silk road’ flanks the...

Negotiating Identity and Transnationalism

At the heart of Communication and Critical Cultural Studies is a discipline that has been slowly expanding its borders around the issues of racism, sexism, ability, privilege, and oppression. As Latinx, African American, Asian Pacific American, Disability and LGBTQ Studies widen and shift the scope of Communication Studies, what often gets underplayed is the role of transnational Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) Studies. It is imperative that the experiences of transnational individuals...

The Public and Its Problems

Джон Дьюи

The Public and Its Problems

More than six decades after John Dewey’s death, his political philosophy is undergoing a revival. With renewed interest in pragmatism and its implications for democracy in an age of mass communication, bureaucracy, and ever-increasing social complexities, Dewey’s The Public and Its Problems, first published in 1927, remains vital to any discussion of today’s political issues. This edition of The Public and Its Problems, meticulously annotated and interpreted with fresh insight by Melvin L....
