NATO’s Enlargement and Russia

The Kremlin has sought to establish an exclusive Russian sphere of influence in the nations lying between Russia and the EU, from Georgia in 2008 to Ukraine in 2014 and Belarus in 2020. It has extended its control by means of military intervention, territorial annexation, economic pressure and covert activities. Moscow seeks to justify this behavior by referring to an alleged threat from NATO and the Alliance’s eastward enlargement. In the rhetoric of the Kremlin, NATO expansion is the main...

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...

Neoconservative Politics and the Supreme Court

In this concise, timely book, constitutional law expert Stephen M. Feldman draws on neoconservative writings to explore the rise of the neocons and their influence on the Supreme Court. Neocons burst onto the political scene in the early 1980s via their assault on pluralist democracy’s ethical relativism, where no pre-existing or higher principles limit the agendas of interest groups. Instead, they advocated for a resurrection of republican democracy, which declares that virtuous...

Never Speak to Strangers and Other Writing from Russia and the Soviet Union

David Satter arrived in the Soviet Union in June, 1976 as the correspondent of the Financial Times of London and entered a country that was a giant theater of the absurd. After 1982, he was banned from the Soviet Union but allowed back in 1990, and finally expelled in 2013 on the grounds that the secret police regarded his presence as “undesirable.” From 1976 to the present, he saw four different Russias, which differed from each other radically while remaining essentially the same. From 1976 to...

New Pandemics, Old Politics

New Pandemics, Old Politics

New Pandemics, Old Politics explores how the modern world adopted a martial script to deal with epidemic disease threats, and how this has failed – repeatedly. Europe first declared ‘war’ on cholera in the 19th century. It didn’t defeat the disease but it served purposes of state and empire. In 1918, influenza emerged from a real war and swept the world unchecked by either policy or medicine. Forty years ago, AIDS challenged the confidence of medical science. AIDS is still with us, but we have...

Nun kehrt er zurück, er bleibt vier Monate und – wie schon in seinem damaligen Buch Deutschboden – lässt er die Geschichte und die Einwohner des Städtchens auf sich zukommen. Anders als vor zehn Jahren ist der Reporter in der Kleinstadt aber kein Fremder...

None of Us Were Like This Before

Joshua Phillips

None of Us Were Like This Before

The legacy of torture in the «War on Terror,» told through the story of one tank battalion None of Us Were Like This Before recounts the dark journey of a tank battalion as its focus switched from conventional warfare to guerrilla war and prisoner detention. Phillips’s narrative reveals how a group of ordinary soldiers, ill trained for the responsibilities foisted upon them, descended into a cycle of degradation that led to the abuse of detainees. The book illustrates that the...

Old Gods, New Enigmas

Old Gods, New Enigmas is the highly-anticipated book by the best-selling author of City of Quartz and Planet of Slums . Mike Davis spent years working factory jobs and sitting behind the wheel of an eighteen wheeler before his profile as one of the world’s leading urbanists emerged with the publication of his sober, if dystopian survey of Los Angeles. Since then, he’s developed a reputation not only for his caustic analysis of ecological catastrophe and colonial history, but as a stylist...

On Liberty and Other Essays

This volume, containing Mill's «On Liberty», «Utilitarianism», «Considerations of Representative Government», and «The Subjection of Women», draws together the basic ideas of liberalism that, although radical in their time, have gained recognition as comprehensive and relevant fundamentals of government, economics, and logic. Since the publication of «On Liberty» in 1859, no other nineteenth century philosopher has delved so deeply into the implications of independence from the state and...

On Liberty and Other Essays (with an Introduction by A. D. Lindsay)

“On Liberty and Other Essays” brings together the most important works of philosopher and political economist John Stuart Mill. In “On Liberty” Mill eloquently ponders the question of where the line should be drawn between the freedom of individuals and the authority of the state. As he puts it, “The struggle between liberty and authority is the most conspicuous feature in the portions of history with which we are earliest familiar…” Second in this volume, “Utilitarianism” is the classic...

Opfer Patient

Mediziner scheinen immun zu sein gegen Irrtümer. Wer je durch einen Arztfehler geschädigt wurde, kann ein Lied davon singen. Denn vor Gericht ein angemessenes Schmerzensgeld durchzusetzen, einen Ausgleich für den Verlust an Lebensqualität oder einfach nur Anerkennung als Opfer medizinischer Praxis zu erlangen, erweist sich meist als unmöglich. Stattdessen werden die Patienten oft noch durch arrogante Ärzte, zynische Gutachter und fatale Fehlurteile gedemütigt. Der Medizinrechtler Dieter...

Den 5. maj 1945 var ikke kun en fredens dag i Danmark. Samtidig indledtes et omfattende opgor med 'landssvigerne': vAernemagere, ostfront-kAempere, tyskerpiger og folk, der havde taget regeringens pabud om samarbejde med tyskerne for bogstaveligt. Nogle blev domt som landsforrAedere. I mange andre sager blev anklagen frafaldet. Men uden for retssalene ventede befolkningens eget opgor i form af udstodelse fra arbejdspladser, foreninger og lokalsamfund.Pa den forkerte side samler op pa...

Pärast Euroopat

Ivan Krastevi vaimukas ja paradokslev raamat lähtub lihtsast tõdemusest: pärast 2015. aasta pagulaskriisi ei ole Euroopa Liidu tulevik enam endine. Mis on muutunud? Kõikuma on löönud Euroopa Liidu liberaalsed põhialused, tõusnud on parempopulism, lahkumas on Ühendkuningriik, euroraha pole kriisist üle saanud, langenud on Euroopa globaane tähendus, laienenud on lõhe eliidi ja lihtrahva vahel. Aga kuigi ühtki kriisi pole lahendatud, on liit ikkagi vastu pidanud. Euroopa maailmajao põhiprobleem on...
