Maria Sonia Cristoff: False Calm / B

False Calm

A Journey Through the Ghost Towns of Patagonia

This landmark collection provides new insights, concepts and techniques to understand and respond to tort claims based on illegal conduct. It is the first comparative study of this difficult field, which has remained contested despite numerous decisions of the highest courts in the common law world. The collection draws on scholars from common law and civilian jurisdictions spanning Argentina, Australia, Brazil, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, South Africa and Sweden. Together they set out fact patterns, and justifications for tort liability to illustrate the coherence and unity that exists when courts address such claims. While common law legal systems have developed a specific defence of illegality for some of those fact patterns, civilian jurisdictions tend to see illegality operating, if at all, through the existing components of tort liability. The book explains how these different approaches have been reached, how they work, and what they reveal about reasoning in tort.

Comparative Legal Reasoning in Global Perspective

Understanding Tort Claims and Illegality

Argentine Freedom
 is the first account of the most disruptive figure in Argentine history since the nation’s return to democracy. In just a few years, Javier Milei rose from television economist and social media provocateur to president of a country long defined by crisis, state intervention, and political polarization. His ascent has sparked fierce debate at home and abroad: Is Milei a threat to democracy, a neo-conservative, or the herald of a much larger revival of the classical liberal tradition?
 
 The book provides a balanced examination of Milei’s rise to power. Rather than judging his policies, economic historian Sebastián Álvarez and political philosopher Ezequiel Spector ask a deeper set of questions: Where do Milei’s ideas come from? How do they relate to Argentina’s liberal tradition and its history of populism, socialism, and authoritarianism? And what does his presidency reveal about the tensions between liberty, equality, and democracy in the twenty-first century?&nbsp;
 
 Blending economic history, political philosophy, and contemporary analysis,&nbsp;
 Argentine Freedom
 traces Argentina’s long ideological arc from the liberal foundations of the 1853 Constitution, through Peronism, military rule, neoliberal reform, and the interventionist turn after the 2001 collapse, to the two liberal “waves” that culminated in Milei’s election. Along the way, it unpacks the meanings of liberalism and libertarianism, contrasts them with their main rivals, and situates Milei within both national history and a broader global surge of anti-establishment leaders.
 
 The resulting book offers a new way to understand Javier Milei as a political actor—and Argentina as a country once again at a crossroads.
 Sebastián Álvarez
 is Professor at Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile and Associate Researcher at the Graduate Institute in Geneva, Switzerland. His work explores the history of finance and banking in Latin America, with particular attention to how capital markets shape economic policy and international relations. He is the author of 
 Mexican Banks and Foreign Finance
 (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019).
 Ezequiel Spector
 is Research Professor and Director of the Master of Arts program in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Adolfo Ibáñez University in Chile. He is the author of 
 Freedom as Social Cooperation

Javier Milei and the Libertarian Wave

Argentine Freedom

'A brilliant and challenging book' GORDON BROWNFrom the founder of Britain's leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies - and how to go about it.If you're shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you're not alone.Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain - with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK - has been far from immune from far-right politics.From HOPE not hate's pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the 'manosphere' and the issues in Netflix's Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of 'race science' and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain's deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism.His conclusions - which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners - suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples - from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford - of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate.

Salt lakes are some of the world's most extraordinary ecosystems but nearly all of them-from the Great Salt Lake to the Aral Sea-are drying up, a harbinger of dust storms, rising sea levels and worsening human health. In this dazzling love letter to strange and delicate waters and a moving odyssey into her own identity, Caroline Tracey takes readers around the world to document salt lakes, their loss and the efforts underway to save them. She explores how the lakes have reflected the fast-changing environment through Mormon diaries, Soviet realist novels and Australian Aboriginal paintings. And she unravels the lakes' lessons for her own life as she finds queer love and a sense of home in an imperfect world. An unforgettable coming-of-age story and an exquisite work of nature writing, Salt Lakes is a moving call to fight for all that is fragile in our lives.

This book analyzes transparency as a primary requirement for successful corporate governance and emphasizes its importance in all activities. It also examines how transparency finds expression in communication processes in external relationships.The volume demonstrates how external communication can be executed in a transparent and reliable way; for instance, a disclosure should enhance the stakeholders' trust in the firm's ability to satisfy their needs and improve their assent to the firm's mission. The book discusses the aims of the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC) toward contributing to a sustainable global economy through "integrating thinking," thereby acquainting resource providers with the connections among the most significant components of the firm and external stakeholders. It showcases the value of integrated reporting in the relationships between financial and nonfinancial performance, which is sometimes underestimated by directors and managers. It also provides guidelines on carrying out an integrated reporting process that breaks down long-term value-creation strategies into day-to-day operational activities, with potential impacts-positive or negative-on stakeholders.The book will be an important resource for academics and practitioners interested in the contents, modification, and dissemination of corporate communication. It will also be useful to students, researchers, and teachers in the fields of business administration, journalism and mass communication, public administration and governance, digital and online media, and communication technology. Additionally, the volume will appeal to professionals in the fields of marketing, advertising, corporate communication, media and public relations agencies, event management, and promotion.

Now updated with a new chapter on the 7 October attacks and more. A Sunday Times Paperback of the Year A Spectator and New Statesman Book of the Year 'An illuminating and riveting read' - Jonathan Dimbleby 'Arresting . . . excellent, doom-freighted' - The Times Jeremy Bowen, the International Editor of the BBC, has been covering the Middle East since 1989 and is uniquely placed to explain its complex past and its troubled present. In The Making of the Modern Middle East he offers a gripping and invaluable guide, showing how it came to be and what its future might hold. In part based on his acclaimed podcast, Our Man in the Middle East, Bowen takes us on a journey across the Middle East and through its history. He meets ordinary men and women on the front line, and their leaders, whether brutal or benign. He explores the power games that have so often wreaked devastation on civilian populations as those leaders, whatever their motives, jostle for political, religious and economic control. Clear throughout is Bowen's deep understanding of the political, cultural and religious differences between countries as diverse as Erdogan's Turkey, Netanyahu's Israel and Palestine, whether Hamas-controlled Gaza or the West Bank. His long experience of covering events in the region make this an extraordinarily powerful account of one of the world's greatest problems.
