An unsettling journey through the calamitous consequences of settler colonialism in Patagonia-- and the story of the world-renowned scientist who witnessed it.

Seit den 80er-Jahren ist es ein wichtiger Teil des Selbstverständnisses der deutschsprachigen Theologie, sich als 'Theologie nach Auschwitz' zu begreifen. Die veränderten gesellschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen - das Sterben der letzten Zeitzeug*innen und Täter*innen, neue Formen des Rassismus und Antisemitismus, Migration, Digitalisierung und Klimakrise - drängen heute zu einer interdisziplinären und selbstkritischen Fortschreibung dieses Erbes. Die Beiträger*innen nehmen vor diesem Hintergrund die Pluralisierung und Verflechtung globaler Erinnerungskulturen ebenso in den Blick wie das Erbe der kolonialen Vergangenheit, interreligiöse Fragestellungen und die Transformationen des Erinnerns im Anthropozän und schreiben das Erbe der Theologie nach dem Holocaust fort.

Theologische und interdisziplinäre Beiträge zur Memoria passionis in der globalisierten Gegenwart

Newly revised and redesigned, this is the human history of the company that powered the development of the electric system in British Columbia—and in turn played an integral role in shaping the province. “A utility is a thing with a heartbeat—a steady beat of progress brought about not by water and wire, turbines and transformers, but by all the people who put our resources and equipment to the benefit of all.”—Sam Weston of the BC Power Commission From its earliest days in colonial Victoria to the initiation of the massive Site C power project in 2015, BC Hydro and its predecessor companies have played a central role in the history of British Columbia. Told through the voices of its employees over three different centuries, Gaslights to Gigawatts recounts the story of the people and projects that delivered power–and much more–to the citizens of the province. It opens in an era when the gas street lamps were lit by hand each evening, covers the decades when the company offered a remarkable array of services to more and more of the province, and finishes in a century when advanced technologies and societal expectations have dramatically altered the way power is delivered to British Columbians. First published in 1998, Gaslights to Gigawatts was a BC Bestseller. This edition brings the story up to date with new interviews and a contemporary design, and includes more than 200 black-and-white and full-colour archival photographs and illustrations, a glossary, chronology, and index. Proceeds from the sale of this book go to the BC Hydro Power Pioneers Miracle Millions Campaign for BC Children’s Hospital.

Um das Jahr 1800 herum wird Jugend zunehmend zum Ziel neuer erzieherischer Forderungen. In Zeiten einer vermeintlich wachsenden Kriminalität junger Menschen rücken Altersgrenzen und Erziehungsverhältnisse in den Fokus - so soll z.B. die richtige Erziehung vorbeugend wirken. Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes betrachten die Konzepte und Ansprüche gegenüber jugendlicher Devianz und Delinquenz in der sogenannten 'Sattelzeit' (1750-1850). Dabei gehen sie auf Quellen ein, die in unterschiedlichen Zusammenhängen zeigen, wie 'verwahrloste' Jugendliche zum Problem erhoben wurden, dem u.a. mit neuartigen Anstalten begegnet werden sollte.

Harvard Series in Ukrainian Studies

The biblical image of David and Goliath captures fittingly the nature of the war that Russia, the world's largest country by surface area, unleashed on neighboring Ukraine, a country that-while still the largest on the European continent-is almost thirty times smaller and has only over a quarter of Russia's population. Yet Ukraine's stubborn resistance proves that it is possible to mount a successful defense against an enormously larger, more populous, and better equipped enemy, even despite its threats of nuclear apocalypse should Ukraine refuse to submit and the West dare to interfere. This volume shows that history can help reveal the reasons for Ukraine's resolve and success on the battlefield and in the public arena. Collected in David and Goliath for the first time are short essays, commentaries, and interviews written and given by Serhii Plokhy, the world's preeminent scholar of Ukrainian history, on the eve and during the first two years of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Plokhy draws our attention to the unique nature of the truly historic events of the largest war in Europe since the end of World War II.

David and Goliath: Commentaries on the Russo-Ukrainian War

In an age where technologies such as AI threaten to supplant human intelligence, an award-winning scientist offers a radical new view of our innate human technology and what we're truly capable of. There are rare moments in time when we make choices that irreversibly change the world, and our lives, forever. Today is one of those moments. Scientists, engineers, and philosophers alike warn us that without a radical shift in our thinking, we are on track to be the last generation of pure humans that the world will know. Within a single generation we will devolve into a hybrid species of synthetic bodies, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and computer chips that limit our ability to think, love, and adapt to the conditions of the emerging world in a healthy way. In doing so we will also lose our capacity for emotion, empathy, intimacy, and forgiveness-the very qualities that we value and cherish in our humanness. The question that we face is simple: Do we love ourselves enough to preserve the gift of our humanness? Our answer is based on the way we've been taught to think of ourselves. Now available in paperback, Pure Human is a compelling journey of self-discovery that will catapult you beyond conventional thinking when it comes to your origins, your limits and, most importantly, the abilities that have been hidden from you for centuries, and the extraordinary potential that awaits as you embrace them.

Very Short Introductions

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring This Very Short Introduction is a general introduction to oral history from the interview to the archive. Douglas A. Boyd examines the oral history interview, recording techniques and strategies, technologies for making oral history accessible, and the legal and ethical implications throughout the work of oral history. Boyd also pays special attention to the role of the archive and the importance of memory. Equally important, this book also examines the world of digital possibilities for utilizing oral history for scholarly, public, community, and personal use. An area of explosive interest and growth, oral history is a complex discipline not just sequestered to storytelling. The interview is a complex combination of strategy and flexibility, remembering and forgetting, narrative and silence, and cannot escape individual biases and perspectives. This book offers readers a comprehensive and concise overview of oral history from one of the most important figures in the field. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

A Very Short Introduction

Oral History

From Indigenous leader and former justice minister of Canada Jody Wilson-Raybould—and educator and lawyer Roshan Danesh—comes a how-to guide for a new type of leadership. We live in a time of paradox. At once, it feels like we are pulling together and pulling apart. In this era of extreme polarization, traditional leadership models rooted in competition and hierarchy are failing to bridge the gap. In The Inbetween Leader, Wilson-Raybould and Danesh offer an alternative—one that fosters interconnectedness, empowers diverse teams, and maintains unity without erasing difference. Drawing on Indigenous governance traditions and integrative worldviews, and building on discussions in the national bestsellers True Reconciliation and Reconciling History, Wilson-Raybould and Danesh show how leaders in workplaces, communities, and families can create environments where everyone feels valued and engaged. Featuring personal experiences, expert advice, and actionable strategies—and informed by Indigenous wisdom and frontline experience in government and peacebuilding—this is crucial reading for a new generation of leaders.

Cultivating Courage and Unity in a Complex World

The InBetween Leader

"Read this book to understand human nature." (Preet Bharara) • "An amazing story, well told.” (Anderson Cooper) • "A masterful telling." (Dahlia Lithwick) From CNN legal analyst Elliot Williams, a revelatory account of how one man, four teenagers, and a struggling city collided over race, vigilantism, and public safety . . . exposing the fault lines of a nation On a dirty New York subway car on December 22, 1984, Bernhard Goetz shot Barry Allen, Darrell Cabey, Troy Canty, and James Ramseur, four teenagers from the Bronx, at point blank range. Goetz claimed they were going to mug him; the teens claim that one of them had simply asked for five dollars. Crime was at an all-time high. So was racial tension. Was Goetz, who was white, a hero who finally fought back? Or a bigot whose itchy trigger finger seriously wounded three unarmed black kids and condemned a fourth to irreversible brain damage? By the time Goetz went on trial for quadruple attempted murder, the “Subway Vigilante” saga had become a global sensation, and New Yorkers across race and class were split over whether he deserved decades in prison…or a medal. In Five Bullets, Elliot Williams vaults back to gritty 1980s Manhattan and reexamines the first major true-crime story of the cable news era. Drawing on archives and interviews with many main characters, including Goetz, Williams presents a masterful and vivid tale that also tells the origin stories of larger-than-life figures: Al Sharpton, a polarizing young local activist rocketing to national prominence; Rudy Giuliani, a rising-star prosecutor with an important decision to make; the NRA, which needed a poster boy for its transition from hunting club to political juggernaut; and Rupert Murdoch, whose new purchase, the New York Post, grew his empire by keeping a scary story in the headlines. A shocking account of a pivotal moment in our history, Five Bullets demonstrates why, in order to understand today’s debates about race, crime, safety, and the media, it’s imperative to reflect on what went down in the subway four decades ago. As Williams’s powerful narrative reveals, it was not just Goetz on trial, but the conscience of a nation.
