Als die Welt den Atem anhielt: drei Tage zwischen Krieg und Frieden 
 
 München 38 steht für Appeasement gegenüber Aggressoren. Denn auf der Münchner Konferenz gaben Chamberlain und Daladier den Drohungen Hitlers nach und ließen die Tschechoslowakei im Stich. Knapp ein Jahr später begann dennoch der Zweite Weltkrieg. Daniel Hedinger und Christian Goeschel erzählen die Geschichte der dramatischen drei Tage, an denen die Welt am Scheideweg stand, und fragen, was uns die Münchner Konferenz heute noch zu sagen hat. Denn die damaligen Ereignisse sind heute erschreckend aktuell. 
 
 In den letzten Septembertagen des Jahres 1938 lag Krieg in der Luft. Die Konferenz in München, der Hauptstadt der NS-Bewegung, war ein letzter, verzweifelter Versuch Frankreichs und Großbritanniens, den Frieden in Europa und damit der Welt zu retten. München ist seitdem ein globaler Erinnerungsort. Doch wurde er bislang zu sehr aus einer rein europäischen Perspektive betrachtet. Dies übersieht die globalen Hintergründe und Auswirkungen der Konferenz. Der Aufstieg des Faschismus hatte vorher bereits die bestehende Weltordnung in Frage gestellt. Erst vor diesem Hintergrund konnte Hitler seine Expansion vorantreiben. Die Welt schaute zudem sehr genau auf die Ereignisse von München und zog ihre Lehren daraus. Und so schwächte das Zurückweichen vor Hitler die demokratischen Abwehrkräfte im Inneren und ermunterte die aggressiven Mächte zu weiterer Expansion ? in Europa ebenso wie im Rest der Welt. Auch deshalb ist München 38 ein Menetekel für unsere Zeit.

Mining has evolved in the 21st century into an indispensable industry that provides a variety of mineral products needed to sustain a modern society. To achieve efficiency, it has also grown into an integrated enterprise of enormous size, wielding substantial economic power. Tailings is essentially a fine-particle mine-waste byproduct. Its management has gone through major transformations in the last century. In early years tailings was disposed of out of sight and literally out of mind. However, due to the physical and chemical characteristics of tailings, this laissez-faire approach in dealing with its disposal led to significant environmental degradation such as pollution and blockage of watercourses, etc. With the rising environmental protection movement, the mining operation is under increasing regulatory constraints and governmental monitoring. Modern tailings dams have become major hydraulic structures designed, constructed, and monitored until they are properly closed and reclaimed after the completion of mining tenure. These dams are often higher than 100 m, with a storage capacity of over hundreds of million cubic metres, serving a vital industrial function for the public. Unfortunately, when such a dam fails, it unleashes tremendous destructive power causing inundation of water and tailings mud over the downstream area resulting in fatalities, loss of property and infrastructure, and lasting environmental degradation. This book presents a condensed monograph on forensic investigations of select case histories of failed tailings dams. The selection tends to emphasize recent cases that have representative characteristics including those affecting the evolution of the current practice of tailings dam engineering. Efforts are made to facilitate readers’ understanding of important factors involved by using plain language. Technical terms are clearly explained before their usage. The objective of the monograph is to provide a neutral reference on tailings dam failure.The author hopes ongoing dialogues by all stakeholders on the important topics of dam safety will raise the safety standard of tailings dams to a new level compatible with public expectations of the sustainable mining industry.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

This book defines media subimperialism through three key characteristics: resistance and collaboration with imperial media, regional dominance despite partial domination by imperial systems, and reliance on imperial media for technology and content. Here, “imperial” or “metropolitan” media refers to systems rooted in imperial centers. Together, these traits not only clarify the role of “southern players” in global media but also challenge the notion that they signal the end of media imperialism. Grounded in Marxist theories of imperialism and subimperialism, this work offers a novel perspective on the rise of media giants from the global South.This book is a groundbreaking contribution to global media studies for two main reasons: it frames emerging media giants from the South as subimperial powers and, uniquely, examines multiple case studies (e.g., Brazil, South Africa, Turkey) collectively rather than individually. It highlights a phenomenon at the intersection of media and power.This book’s scope is twofold: first, it conceptualizes media subimperialism in the context of globalization, global hegemony, and media imperialism; second, it examines a range of case studies to allow for comparative insights, with at least seven cases analyzed. As pioneering research, this book sets the stage for future studies and captivate media scholars and students worldwide.Farooq Sulehria is Assistant Professor in the Department of Liberal Arts, Beaconhouse National University, Lahore.
