A New History of the American Revolution

Campaign

The Tide Turns in the South

Kings Mountain 1780

The Writer's Lot explores the working lives of eighteenth-century French authors-celebrities and unknowns-at a time when their example, if not often their ideas, changed the course of history. Taking the measure of "literary France" as a whole, Robert Darnton offers rare insight into the social ferment of the Age of Revolution.

Culture and Revolution in Eighteenth-Century France

The Writer's Lot

When the young Tunisian street vendor, Muhammad Bou Azizi, set himself alight in December 2010, he ignited a movement that in three weeks toppled the twenty-three year old dictatorship of President Ben Ali. Tunisia's 2011 uprising took experts by surprise. Few in the West looked to Tunisia's history of dissent and rebellion as a way to understand the present moment. However, in the country itself, headlines read "2011 revives the memory of 1864". 
 
This is the first work in English to address the significance of Tunisia's 1864 rebellion for understanding Tunisia's 2011 experience, and its reverberation across the Arab world. Using a variety of sources - from state archives and scholarly monographs, to poetry festivals, theater productions, radio and TV programs - the book reveals a documented history of political manipulation and popular resistance to it. Power and Protest in Tunisia traces the battle for the memory of the original anti-tax, anti-centre rebellion of 1864 that brought Tunisia's tribes into a fragile but year-long alliance with coastal town populations. It uniquely places the recent revolution in the context of past social struggles emerging from the same interior regions. 
 
The book demonstrates how and why various regimes used the 1864 revolt to justify political agendas across the longue durée, from the liberal 'reform' era of the beys (Ottoman provincial governors) to the postcolonial present. Successive regimes have used this history to instill fear and suppress dissent, but this book shows that popular memory has preserved the event as a powerful symbolic example of collective mobilization against injustice and corruption-one that nearly toppled a dynasty.

Remembering Revolution, Rebellion and Collective Dissent, 1864 -2011

Power and Protest in Tunisia

Multilingual Matters

This book offers both a nuanced picture of language ideologies and language policies in post-Arab Spring Tunisia and a detailed critical and interdisciplinary model of Language Policy and Planning. The authors describe how multiple language ideologies interact and play out as language policy against a background of political turmoil.

A Study of Language Ideological Debates

Language Politics in Tunisia

In April 2019, following over six months of persistent youth-led protests, Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir was successfully deposed, bringing an end to three decades of authoritarian rule in Sudan.In this illuminating volume, Khalid Mustafa Medani examines the political and socioeconomic factors that led to the revolution and diagnoses the challenges that remain for the consolidation of democracy. He explores the role of political economy in the popular uprising and discusses some oft-neglected factors in the analysis of popular protests in Africa and the Middle East. These include the relationship between geopolitics and grassroots activism in democratisation; the role of social media and diasporic activism in helping to shape and sustain local networks of resistance; and new dynamics of mobilisation, which have seen the emergence of youth and women in particular as central actors in the protests.Based on many years of research, Revolutionary Sudan shines light on the ways in which Sudan''s revolution holds important lessons for popular uprisings in the region and beyond.

As powerfully intimate as it is politically incendiary' VOGUE 'Private Revolutions could be a Netflix series, for family, violence and romance abound' IRISH TIMES 'A portrait of China through four women who refused to accept the life laid out for them. Incredible' SUNDAY TIMES 'A revelatory, moving and tender tale of hopes, fears and change' PETER FRANKOPAN *A Sunday Times, Observer &amp; BBC Highlight for 2024* This is a book about the coming of age of four women born in China in the 1980s and 1990s, in a society about to change beyond recognition. It is about Leiya, who wants to escape the fate of the women in her village. Still underage, she bluffs her way on to the factory floor. It is about June, who at fifteen sets what her family thinks is an impossible goal: to attend university rather than raise pigs. It is about Siyue, ranked second-to-bottom of her English class, who decides to prove her teachers wrong. And it is about Sam, who becomes convinced that the only way to change her country is to become an activist - even as the authorities slowly take her peers from the streets. With unprecedented access to the lives, hopes, homes, dreams and diaries of four ordinary women over a period of six years, Private Revolutions gives a voice to those whose stories go untold. At a time of rising state censorship and suppression, it unearths the identity of modern Chinese society - and, through the telling, something of our own.

Argentina, a Tale of Two Utopias takes us through the outsized and unexpected remnants of the influence of anarchist ideas and practice on modern-day Argentina—from the names of popular pastries to the foundation of numerous soccer clubs—until we arrive at the explosive intersection of anarchism, football, and the crisis of neoliberalism.
This is a thrilling first-person account of the December 2001 uprising in Argentina that marked the end of the neoliberal experiment of the 1990s, narrated by an anarchist participant in the clashes that laid siege to the presidential palace and forced the president to resign and flee on a rooftop helicopter. A Tale of Two Utopias weaves together two simultaneous yet seemingly unrelated events of those “days which contain decades” of Buenos Aires in December 2001: the uprising and the first championship in 35 years of the popular football club Racing Club de Avellaneda.
Alternating between urgent narration and historical account, and accompanied by over 150 photos and illustrations, A Tale of Two Utopias leads the reader through the streets of a burning Buenos Aires while also finding the time to take us on a lovingly traced tour of the rich history of Argentina’s anarchist movement of the early twentieth century, then among the largest in the world. It is also a compelling account of the trauma inflicted by Argentina’s numerous dictatorships.
