How a Color Tells the Story of My People

Concéntrico: Urban Innovation Laboratory
 blickt auf die ersten zehn Ausgaben des seit 2015 in der spanischen Stadt Logroño stattfindenden Design- und Architektur-Festivals Concéntrico zurück. Dieses fördert als innovatives Laboratorium die Suche nach neuen kreativen Wegen und trägt dazu bei, Architektur und Design zur Stärkung von Gemeinschaft einzusetzen und den Dialog zwischen Praktizierenden und der Gesellschaft zu beleben und zu fördern.
 Das Buch bildet in höchst visueller Weise und mit kurzen, konzisen Texten den internationalen Diskurs zur Bedeutung von Architektur und Design im 21. Jahrhundert ab, der über die bisherigen Ausgaben von Concéntrico entstanden ist. Es zeigt anhand von für das Festival entstandenen Entwürfen und Konzepten von 80 Architekt:innen, Designer:innen und Künstler:innen aus 20 Ländern sinnvolle Möglichkeiten auf, um sich mit drängenden urbanen Fragen auseinanderzusetzen - von Identität und Kulturerbe bis hin zu Zeitweiligkeit, Kollektivität, Ökologie, Spiel und Wohnlichkeit. Eingeleitet und zusammengehalten wird das Ganze durch ein Gespräch zwischen den beiden Herausgebern Javier Peña Ibáñez und Nick Axel über Kontext und Entwicklung des Concéntrico Festivals und dem dabei zusammengetragenen Wissen.

This book presents the first ethnographic account of the inner-world of covert policing, sheds new light on a largely hidden and poorly understood form of investigation and offers a major contrubution to research on police culture and practice.

Invisible Policing

"Dominic clearly remembers more about the 90s than I do." - Zoe BallI was in the right place at exactly the right time.I was handed a precious backstage pass to this magical period, as a chronicler of some of its most significant moments, of its wild protagonists, whether in music, entertainment, fashion, football, art or politics.I had a front-row seat for that insane decade, but it was 1996 that was the period's stunning apex. Oasis at Maine Road and Knebworth, the births of Robbie Williams the solo star and the Spice Girls, the Euro 96 football tournament and 'Three Lions', the rise of New Labour and Tony Blair.I was there for the lot.1996. Britpop ruled the airwaves.The tabloids framed reality long before Instagram.Football was finally coming home. Tony Blair was learning to play rock star - and rock stars were learning they could play politics. Everyone was partying hard, and Britain was the coolest place on earth.Showbiz reporter Dominic Mohan wasn't watching the party from afar - he was in the room.Backstage at Knebworth with Oasis. In strip clubs with Robbie Williams. On the phone to Bowie. On the receiving end of Spice Girls gossip, Gallagher gobbiness and tabloid-era chaos. From Euro '96 euphoria to Brit Awards anarchy, from rave culture to New Labour, Mohan witnessed the moment the UK went from scruffy indie island to global cultural powerhouse.Part memoir, part cultural autopsy and part riotous tour through the 90s and its greatest year, 1996 is a jaw-dropping front-row seat to the madness, the music, the football, and the politics that reshaped Britain - and created legends along the way.Three decades on, Mohan returns to the year everything peaked, and asks: what the hell happened, why did it matter, and can it ever happen again?If you were there - this book will feel like going home.If you weren't - you'll wish you had been.

A visually striking exploration and celebration of the vibrant worlds of fantasy, anime and manga within Asian visual culture, and its cultural impact across the globe. This beautiful, visually rich, image-led publication invites readers to immerse themselves in the vibrant world of fantasy within Asian visual culture. Each chapter features captivating illustrations, photographs and artworks that reflect a dynamic interplay between historical and contemporary influences. It begins with pre-modern artistic traditions that established fantasy as a foundation of visual culture in China, India, Japan, Korea and beyond. The book then traces the spread of surrealism through Asia, along with the postwar emergence of anime and manga, examining how fantastical aesthetics shaped art and pop culture across the region in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Later chapters then delve into the contemporary worlds of popular culture, exploring the evolution of anime and manga in Japan from the postwar period to the present day, with a final chapter celebrating the diverse work of carefully selected contemporary practitioners. The book uniquely spotlights the Golden Age of Asian popular culture in the 1980s and 1990s and its global impact. Diverse in thematic scope and illustrated with striking visuals, Myths, Monsters, and Manga shows how anime played a vital role in reshaping the global entertainment landscape and its enduring impact across art, design, architecture, film, fashion, video games and digital culture in the twenty-first century.

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

Die Washingtoner Prinzipien von 1998, fordern die Signatarstaaten zu "gerechten und fairen Lösungen" im Umgang mit "NS-Raubkunst" auf. Das Vereinigte Königreich setzte diesen Appell im Jahr 2000 mit Einrichtung des "Spoliation Advisory Panel" (SAP) um, das seither einen Streitbeilegungsmechanismus bietet, um auf die Ansprüche Berechtigter zu reagieren. Dieser Band nimmt die 22 Empfehlungen in den Blick, die das Panel bislang ausgesprochen hat. Die Entscheidungen werden vor dem Hintergrund der englischen Rechtstradition und -praxis sowie der historischen Rolle des Vereinigten Königreichs analysiert, systematisiert und einem abstrakten Regelwerk zugeführt. Die so sichtbar gemachte Entscheidungslinie des SAP kann als Diskussions- und Vergleichsgrundlage für die Restitutionspraxen anderer Staaten herangezogen werden.

"One of the most affecting graphic novels I've read in some time. You'll root for Kirah as she navigates a county's institutional racism, her mysterious family history, and brutal Gatorman murders, written and artistically rendered with care and love and righteous anger. Don't miss this one." –PAUL TREMBLAY, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie and The Cabin at the End of the World&nbsp;&nbsp;A gripping graphic horror novel set in the Florida bayou, following a young biracial woman as she uncovers her estranged father’s role in a grisly hate crime.&nbsp;Kirah was born from an improbable interracial relationship that, in central Florida’s infamous Asurupa County, defied all the odds. But her idyllic childhood was shattered by an urban legend come to life. The “Gatorman” was a nightmare on the lips of kids and grown-ups alike all the way back to Jim Crow: a monster with the body of a man, the head of an alligator—and a taste for Black children. That’s who crawled into Kirah’s window when Kirah was just five years old. According to the police, it was Kirah’s own father who put on that gator mask and tried to kill her.Twenty years later, Kirah works hard to build a life unburdened by the traumatic events of her childhood.&nbsp;Just when it seems like she’s managed to find her stride, her dad, fresh out of prison, crashes back into her world with a chilling message: “He’s coming for you.”Finally forced to face the hideous family history she’s been avoiding, Kirah sets off to discover where, and who, she truly came from. And the more she learns, the more disturbing the whole picture becomes. Turns out there’s a lot more to the Gatorman than Kirah thought, and even worse: he isn’t through with her just yet.A clever hybrid of swamp noir, slasher horror, and social satire—and brought to life by Camilla Sucre’s vivid illustrations—Mama Came Callin’&nbsp;is a story about family and legacies, both the ones we inherit and the ones we can’t escape.

A Graphic Novel

Mama Came Callin'

What if we&nbsp;did&nbsp;abolish police, courts or prisons? Where would we turn for justice? Do we need to have laws? Punishment? These questions are not just the preoccupation of an abolitionist pipedream. Their answers exist already, if only we know where to look.

We Make Our Own Justice&nbsp;introduces the reader to communities around the world who are already resolving harms and conflicts themselves, without looking to the state or judiciary. The book explores a number of locations where alternative forms of justice, peace-keeping and adjudication are taking place. With particular focus on indigenous- and women-led movements from across Mexico, Argentina, Europe, East Africa, Rojava and the USA, Marina Sitrin looks at how each came to be, as well as the theoretical and political underpinnings of the process.

The book allows the reader to reflect on the ways in which the seeds of these alternative forms of justice and adjudication have been planted and nurtured over time-often over decades-and to consider the possibilities for other communities and regions to produce something similar.&nbsp;We Make Our Own Justice&nbsp;offers an invaluable resource as we seek to transform our neighbourhoods, groups and communities into abolitionist spaces in theory and practice.

We Make Our Own Justice

"Lost Worlds convinces us of the value of slowing down to recognize the tremendous diversity of the human past. But he presses hard against the conclusion that there was any direction or pattern behind its complexity." —The Wall Street Journal“A spellbinding tour de force!” —Walter Scheidel, author of What Is Ancient History?“This is non-fiction storytelling at its finest.” —Eric H. Cline, author of 1177 B.C.The creator of the hit podcast Tides of History offers a new look at humanity’s deep past, showing us how our world was built not by inevitability, but by trial and error on a global scale.There’s a familiar story about us humans: we went from hunting and gathering to farming, wandering bands to villages and cities, clans and chieftains to states and kings. But Lost Worlds offers a new narrative of humanity’s deep history. Here beloved podcast host Patrick Wyman focuses on the 10,000-year span between the end of the Ice Age and the decline of the Bronze Age—the period when civilization as we understand it emerged, introducing social hierarchies, urbanism, complex political organizations, and the written word.In this nuanced retelling, human progress is no longer a straight march from caves to cities: Farming didn’t always replace foraging, villages didn’t automatically spark agriculture, and cities didn’t necessitate rigid hierarchies. For thousands of years, humans merely improvised. By the end of the Bronze Age, the world had become unrecognizable: mammoths and giant sloths replaced by cattle and sheep, scattered nomadic bands replaced by millions living in cities, and farming on nearly every continent. Wyman argues that the rise of states and steady food production wasn’t inevitable, but rather, the outcome of countless choices that reshaped the planet and made us who we are today.Combining cutting-edge science with gripping storytelling, Lost Worlds explores: <ul><li>A Sweeping New History of the Ancient World: Discover how early societies rose, adapted, and collapsed across thousands of years of human history.</li><li>The Archaeology Revolution: Ancient DNA, climate science, and new excavation methods are revealing how prehistoric people lived, migrated, and fought.</li><li>From Ice Age Hunters to Early Civilizations: Follow the dramatic transformation that led from nomadic foragers to farming, cities, and powerful states.</li><li>Why Societies Rise—and Fall: Learn how climate change, migration, population growth, and conflict shaped the fate of early civilizations.</li></ul>

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

Today's Crime and Punishment Issues

A ground-breaking look at the science of love and connection - and an urgent corrective to some of our most fundamental assumptions about attraction. 'In a world saturated with cynical advice about dating and gender, this book is a revelation.' DANIEL H. PINK, author of Drive and The Power of Regret 'One of the most joyfully uplifting antidotes to 21st-century gloom.' THE TIMES --------------------- We're told that what men and women desire from relationship is different - he's looking for novelty, she's looking for commitment; he's concerned with looks, she's concerned with status. We're told that we live in a hierarchy of romantic inequality - where some are 10s and others are 2s; where some people are marriage material and others are wired for promiscuity. But this narrative is unscientific. Such ideas have their roots in a branch of science called evolutionary psychology, and over the past few decades its ideas have permeated our culture and fuelled a narrative that inspires despair and anxiety - and, in its most extreme form, these ideas have been hijacked in the service of misogyny and violence. But the truth about human attraction - and the way evolution plays out in our romantic lives - is much more interesting and optimistic. Bonded by Evolution offers a radical new picture of the roots of enduring chemistry. Distilling evolutionary biology, anthropology and psychology and informed by his pathbreaking research and original experiments at the Attraction and Relationships Research Laboratory in California, psychology professor Paul Eastwick reveals how attraction is best depicted as a process of finding - and, often, creating - a compatible relationship. Once we understand how ancestral humans sought compatible partners in small networks, we can build a clearer - and brighter - picture of how attraction, sex and relationships really work. --------------------- More praise for Bonded by Evolution: 'Profound and pragmatic, suggesting an entirely different approach to the study - and pursuit - of love.' ERIC KLINENBERG, co-author of Modern Romance 'Rarely have scientific rigor and exuberant optimism been such congenial companions . . . Bonded by Evolution presents an optimistic new paradigm, one that provides clear guidance for romantic success.' ELI FINKEL, author of The All or Nothing Marriage
