Nash D: Blasphemy in Britain and
America, 1800-1930, Volume 2

Blasphemy in Britain and America, 1800-1930, Volume 2

An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on 4 years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

Das Positive: Putin und Trump zwingen uns zu Entscheidungen. Wollen wir unseren europäischen Weg gehen, die Ukraine unterstützen und unsere Zukunft nach eigenen Vorstellungen gestalten? Was sind wir bereit, dafür zu tun?
Oder geben wir uns, unsere Länder, unser Friedensprojekt EU, unser Leben in demokratischer Selbstbestimmtheit auf.
Der russisch-ukrainische Krieg ist der Lackmustest für uns und unsere Demokratien.

Die Kinder des Sisyphos

“Schlink knows how to tell a gripping yarn . . . [The Granddaughter] is a rewarding and wonderfully readable novel.” —The Guardian“A brilliant dissection of a fragmented nation in which a glimmer of hope relieves a somber but wholly memorable tale.” —Kirkus (starred review)From the bestselling author of The Reader, a striking exploration of the past, told through the story of a German bookseller’s attempt to connect with his radicalized granddaughter.It is only after the sudden death of his wife, Birgit, that Kaspar discovers the price she paid years earlier when she fled East Germany to join him: she had to abandon her baby. Shattered by grief, yet animated by a new hope, Kaspar closes up his bookshop in present day Berlin and sets off to find her lost child in the east.His search leads him to a rural community of neo-Nazis, intent on reclaiming and settling ancestral lands to the East. Among them, Kaspar encounters Svenja, a woman whose eyes, hair, and even voice remind him of Birgit. Beside her is a red-haired, slouching, fifteen-year-old girl. His granddaughter? Their worlds could not be more different— an ideological gulf of mistrust yawns between them— but he is determined to accept her as his own.More than twenty-five years after The Reader, Bernhard Schlink once again offers a masterfully gripping novel that powerfully probes the past’s role in contemporary life, transporting us from the divided Germany of the 1960s to modern day Australia, and asking what unites or separates us.Translated from the German by Charlotte Collins

A Novel

The Granddaughter

Mean Girls&nbsp;meets&nbsp;Northanger Abbey&nbsp;in this Sapphic, rivals-to-lovers Regency Romance that begs the question: what if Cady and Regina just… kissed?When country-bred Catherine Pine relocates to Bath in 1817, she and her mother come face-to-face with her mother’s arch nemesis, Lady Tisend, and her daughter, the wildly popular and gorgeous Lady Rosalie. Though once her very best friend, Mrs. Pine alleges Lady Tisend ultimately did her a great injustice. Twenty-five years later, she sees the perfect opportunity for retribution:Catherine will win the favor of Lady Rosalie’s suitor, Mr. Dean. Together, Catherine and her mother will ruin the Tisends’ lives, secure Catherine a fruitful match, and launch a fully triumphant return to Bath. It’s the perfect plan for revenge. Only Catherine soon discovers that there’s more to Lady Rosalie’s mean streak than meets the eye.&nbsp;Lady Rosalie is by far the wittiest, cleverest, most intriguing young woman Catherine’s ever met, and she’s utterly smitten.&nbsp;Meanwhile, Rosalie feels trapped in her perfect life as Bath’s favorite daughter and resident mean girl. There’s no challenge anymore, no excitement, no surprise. But when she notices newcomer Catherine gunning for her spot as queen bee, Rosalie finally feels a spark again. She determines to meet Catherine’s challenge with gusto, because Catherine ignites something in her. Something Rosalie absolutely doesn’t want to extinguish.As their mothers force them into increasingly absurd contests of wit and feminine charms to win Mr. Dean’s affections, Rosalie and Catherine instead find themselves falling for each other, scheme, by barb, by catty jab…&nbsp;Can their sizzling rivalry really become a match to last?

The Straight Mind

How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

Two Paths to Prosperity

Revealing the people behind the Rothschild name, The Rothschilds explores the lives and legacy of one of the best-known and most impactful families in modern history. The Rothschild name has long been synonymous with wealth and privilege, but as Jews the family has also been dogged by prejudice and hatred. Antisemitism followed them from their earliest beginnings in the oppressive Jewish ghetto of Frankfurt, where Jews were not allowed out after nightfall, to the lofty summits of high finance, art, and culture. However, behind the myths, the glamor, and the conspiracy theories are a group of relatives whose individualism, personalities and occasional eccentricities have been obscured by their shared surname. <ul> <li>In The Rothschilds, Harry Freedman delves into their lives on a historical tour, marked by an unfailing attention to the influence of individual family members on world events.</li> <li>We travel from the genesis of the Rothschild international banking empire to the impact of individual Rothschilds in multiple fields over the past 250 years.</li> <li>Spanning war, politics and the industrial revolution, art, architecture and interior design, zoology, smuggling, and counter-terrorism and the ongoing struggle against entrenched anti-Jewish bigotry in different historical eras and places.</li></ul> The Rothschilds reveals a truly new story of a very old family, making a great contribution both to history and our understanding of a dynasty that has shaped our world. &nbsp;

The Untold Family Story

The Rothschilds

This is the incredible untold story of four women who helped win World War II by generating a wave of black propaganda. Betty MacDonald was a 28-year-old reporter from Hawaii. Zuzka Lauwers grew up in a tiny Czechoslovakian village and knew five languages by the time she was 21. Jane Smith-Hutton was the wife of a naval attaché living in Tokyo. Marlene Dietrich, the German-American actress and singer, was one of the biggest stars of the 20th century. These four women, each fascinating in her own right, together contributed to one of the most covert and successful military campaigns in WWII. Members of the Office of Strategic Services, their task was to create a secret brand of propaganda produced with the sole aim to break the morale of Axis soldiers. Working in Europe, across enemy lines in occupied China and in Washington D.C., Betty, Zuzka, Jane and Marlene forged letters and 'official' military orders, wrote and produced entire newspapers, scripted radio broadcasts and songs and even developed rumours for undercover spies and double agents to spread to the enemy. And outside of a small group of spies, no one knew they existed. Until now.

For more than two decades, Marwan Barghouti has been held in an Israeli prison cell, much of that time in total isolation. Yet his voice has never been forgotten.Described by the Economist as 'the world's most important prisoner' and often referred to as Palestine's Mandela, Barghouti remains the most widely supported Palestinian political leader. As a long-standing advocate of peace grounded in justice and equality, he has become an enduring symbol of unity and hope - even from behind bars.Unbroken brings together, for the first time, a powerful and intimate portrait of Barghouti's life and struggle for a free Palestine: private letters to his family, personal writings, correspondence with global public figures, press interviews, public statements and rare personal photographs.This is his story, in his own words. Unsilenced, unbroken.

What if the secret to conquering modern business challenges was already solved... over two thousand years ago? Whether you are scaling a startup, navigating office politics, or leading a company through rapid transformation, modern business can feel like an endless battle. But history's greatest leaders - from Alexander the Great and Scipio Africanus, to Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Augustus and more - were wrestling with these exact same strategic dilemmas. In Strategize Like Caesar, business executive and compliance expert Nick Henderson-Mayo seamlessly bridges classical antiquity with modern industry. Structured across four key groupings of organisation and strategy - The Disruptors, The Rivals, The Rulers, and The Survivors - this book pairs epic classical history with sharp corporate case studies and actionable frameworks. Step out of the boardroom, and onto the battlefield, discovering how to:<ul><li>Identify your Centers of Gravity: Apply Alexander the Great's tactics to pinpoint critical pressure points in your competition.</li><li>Avoid 'Hannibal's Paradox': Stop confusing short-term tactical wins with long-term strategic success.</li><li>Master office politics: Leverage transactional alliances and 'Strategic Distance' to build leverage and protect your team.</li><li>Pace transformational change: Use Augustus's principle of festina lente (make haste slowly) to execute seamless organizational pivots.</li></ul>Drawing from a decade spent advising Fortune 500 risk and legal teams, Henderson-Mayo delivers an indispensable, battle-tested playbook for modern decision-makers. Because the leaders who thrive in the future are those who learn from the past.

Rechtsfolgen der politischen Verfolgung im wiedervereinigten Deutschland

Die Arbeitsgruppe Aufarbeitung und Recht an der Europa-Universität Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) bekam 2018 vom Bundeswissenschaftsministerium den Auftrag, die "Rechtsfolgen politischer Verfolgung im wiedervereinigten Deutschland" zu untersuchen. Die wesentlichen Ergebnisse dieser Untersuchung werden in dieser Publikation veröffentlicht. Die gesetzlichen Grundlagen für die Rehabilitierung und Entschädigung politisch Verfolgter und Benachteiligter waren insgesamt zwar ausreichend. Dagegen war die Durchführung der Gesetze mangels behördlicher Verwaltungsvorschriften und Struktur der Rehabilitierungsverfahren mangelhaft. So müssten im Bereich der Bodenreform und der Kollektivierung ca. 10 % der Verfahren wegen krasser Rechtsfehler noch einmal neu aufgerollt werden. Folge der unzureichenden Umsetzung der Rehabilitierungsgesetze ist nicht zuletzt, dass Angehörige und Nachkommen politisch Verfolgter mit dem Rechtsstaat unzufrieden sind.
