Famous Trials of History

Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy

In response to the global crises in recent decades, many countries - both developed and developing economies - have resorted to populist forms of economic policy instead of undertaking meaningful institutional change.This book explores two forms of economic populism in particular (wage populism and exchange rate populism) and demonstrates that these types of policies result in high inflation, unstable exchange rates, and chronic macroeconomic problems. The book opens with an elucidation of the institutional economics approach - drawing on Commons and Veblen, and foregrounding laws, rules, norms, regulations, religions, and traditions - which sheds particular light on economic populism. The book also explores the different forms of economic populism that have been seen throughout the world including policies in the United States, Brexit in the United Kingdom, the response to the Yellow Jackets in France, the populism of various countries in Latin America, and regulations in China. Delving deeper, two case studies are explored in greater and comparative detail: Argentina and Turkey. In these countries, which have followed similar patterns, it is shown how following a path of economic populism has prevented the much-needed institutional reforms from being enacted. The book argues that adopting populist economic policies may prove popular in the short term but prevents and ignores the longer-term project of institutional reform, which is needed to provide greater stability. Finally, the book also looks at the types of institutional and policy reform that may be required to prevent economic populism from taking hold.This book will be of interest to readers in economics, political economy, politics, and other social sciences who are grappling with issues around populism in all its forms.

Der Band enthält 112, zum Teil historische Abbildungen und 100 Artikel zu Venedigs Kulturgeschichte, zu den lokalen Mythen, Traditionen, Problemen der Lagunenstadt - jenseits der üblichen Reiseführer-Literatur. Der Venezianer Danilo Reato nutzt vielfach Bezeichnungen aus den Straßenschildern der Stadt (den "nizioleti", eigentlich "Bettlaken"), die jedem Besucher auffallen, um historische Bezüge zu erklären.

Kindheits- und Jugendgeschichte

Das Ausmaß der Kinderarbeit in Deutschland außerhalb von Fabriken war bislang weitgehend unbekannt. Manuel Schramm zeigt am Beispiel Sachsens neue Perspektiven für die historische Forschung zur Kinderarbeit auf. Dabei greift er ungelöste Fragen der bisherigen Literatur, wie beispielsweise den Einfluss des technischen Wandels oder die Ursachen des Rückgangs der Kinderarbeit, auf und behandelt auch Aspekte wie die Höhe und Entwicklung der Löhne sowie die Unterschiede zwischen Jungen und Mädchen. Es zeigt sich, dass Kinderarbeit weiter verbreitet war als bisher angenommen und sich nicht nur auf die Unterschichten beschränkte.

This volume presents a multidimensional analysis of the current operational law - both constitutional and customary - in Northeast India. It looks at how colonialism redesigned and redefined extant customary practices, leaving a permanent legacy on the legal governance and societal structure of the post-colonial Indian state.The book interrogates "law" through a broad spectrum of issues including gender, partition, the legacy of colonial structures, and religion as a form of resistance against land grabbing and censorship. It delineates a distinct historical process of the evolution of law and custom and focuses on the intimate links between law and the dynamics of state, ethnicity, and governance.As a unique contribution, the book offers new insights into how and why the continuity of colonial law within a democratic framework perpetuates deep-rooted problems in governance and the psyche of the people. It will be indispensable for students and researchers of history, law, anthropology, legal anthropology, sociology, Indian politics, and South Asian studies.

Historische Geschlechterforschung

Frauen leiteten im Habsburgerreich eine bunte Vielfalt privater Mädchenschulen. Als Schulunternehmerinnen&nbsp;handelten sie vor dem Hintergrund von Normen und sozialen Ängsten, die die Bildungslandschaft von der Einführung der Unterrichtspflicht im Jahr 1774 bis zum Inkrafttreten des Reichsvolksschulgesetzes im Jahr 1869 und darüber hinaus prägten. Waltraud Schütz betrachtet erstmals die Herausforderungen und Chancen, mit denen diese Frauen konfrontiert waren, und zeigt, dass sie aktive Gestalterinnen ihrer Schulen waren. Dabei werden die Besonderheiten im Bildungssektor, in dem das private und das öffentliche Unterrichtswesen eng miteinander verwoben waren, am Beispiel der Stadt Wien beleuchtet.

Oder geben wir uns, unsere Länder, unser Friedensprojekt EU, unser Leben in demokratischer Selbstbestimmtheit auf.

Die Kinder des Sisyphos

What could the critically labelled 'crown jurist of the Third Reich' and a 16th-century Dominican friar at Salamanca University--long revered as the founding father of international law during the age of discovery--possibly share? This pioneering multi-author volume is the first to examine the Vitoria-Schmitt nexus in the history and theory of international law, bringing together two classic thinkers whose radically different yet profoundly influential ideas continue to shape international law and political thought well into the 21st century. Contributors are: Paolo Amorosa, André Azevedo Alves, Joseph W. Bendersky, José María Beneyto, Ignacio de la Rasilla, Lauren Benton, Leonor Durão Barroso, Maximiliano Hernández Marcos, Ryan Martinez Mitchell, David Pan, Daniel R. Quiroga-Villamarín, Juan Pablo Scarfi, Ville Suurone, Christopher Rossi, David Roth-Isigkeit, Johannes Thumfart, Jochen Von Bernstorff, Valentina Vadi, and Miguel Vatter.

The Paradox of Universalism in International Law

Carl Schmitt and Francisco de Vitoria

A transformative guide to experiencing the fullness of God's promises through the power of minimalism, from the bestselling author of The More of Less and The Minimalist Home Rooted in the teachings of Jesus, Uncluttered Faith argues that true spiritual fulfilment and abundant life are found not in accumulation but in simplicity and generosity. Weaving together personal stories, biblical teachings and practical advice, Becker shows how worldly treasures can hinder your relationship with God and your potential in His Kingdom. He shares his journey towards minimalism, a path he began nearly two decades ago that has since revealed numerous spiritual promises, emphasising that Jesus's teaching to give away possessions is not about deprivation, but rather the formula to experience purpose, passion, fulfilment and meaning, in this life. Uncluttered Faith is more than a guide for your personal growth; it casts a bold vision for the Church to collectively embrace minimalism and reach its full potential, ultimately leading to a life that is not only personally fulfilling but also impactful for eternity.

Own Less, Love More and Make an Impact in Your World

Uncluttered Faith

A thrilling history of how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us. 'Science and technology never seem more exciting than when James Gleick is writing about them' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction 'Forces you to see the world with new eyes. Blending expertise with a thrilling narrative . . . I loved it!' - Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen and Eleanor 'Masterful. I learned so much and enjoyed every page of this richly researched, playful, and insightful book' - Tiffany Jenkins, author of Strangers and Intimates A supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar, the telephone burst onto the world stage 150 years ago, a triumphant story of individual ingenuity and vision. Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. But the story of The Telephone is also one of corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics; the race to the patent office, to make money, a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation. And no one, not even its inventors, realised what the telephone was good for or how ubiquitous it would become. As the telephone settled into the background - in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls - people forgot how they ever lived without it. Now, as landlines, telephone books and telephone boxes vanish into the past, science writer James Gleick - bestselling author of Chaos - shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings. 'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' - Stacy Schiff, author of The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 MOORE PRIZE IN HUMAN RIGHTS WRITING 'Prosecuting The Powerful isn't just compelling and very moving, it has all the force of a well-crafted thriller. I literally couldn't stop reading it,' John Simpson, BBC World Affairs Editor 'A compelling account of a revolutionary moment in history,' Philippe Sands, The Spectator 'Powerful, timely and moving,' Baroness Helena Kennedy KC 'A tour de force,' Lindsey Hilsum, International Editor, Channel 4 News 'Absolutely brilliant,' Nick Cohen Could we ever see Vladimir Putin in the dock for his crimes? What about a Western ally like Benjamin Netanyahu? Putting a country's leader on trial once seemed unimaginable. But as Steve Crawshaw describes in Prosecuting the Powerful - a blend of powerful eyewitness reporting and gripping history - the possibilities of justice have been transformed. Crawshaw includes recent stories from the front lines of justice in Ukraine, Israel/Palestine and at The Hague, as well as his earlier encounters with war criminals like Slobodan Miloševi¿. He tells the stories of those who have demanded protection for civilians and accountability for war criminals - from the Geneva Conventions to the Syrian police photographer who helped put one of Bashar al-Assad's torturers behind bars. He also follows the extraordinary unfolding story of two of the world's most powerful and well-connected leaders currently under indictment at the International Criminal Court in The Hague: Putin and Netanyahu. For all the current darkness, this is a historic opportunity. The scales of justice can and must be balanced. Now is the moment.
