V. R: Resurrection Man: Quantum Karma

Resurrection Man: Quantum Karma

Why Britain's energy path gave rise to an ideology of endless growth Despite the warnings of climate scientists, the world remains dangerously addicted to fossil fuel. Why has it been so difficult to break this habit? In a major new account, Fredrik Albritton Jonsson suggests that the planetary emergency has profound historical roots reaching back to the making of the first fossil fuel economy in eighteenth-century Britain. Rather than look for a single dramatic rupture centered on the steam-powered factory system, in Infinite Coal Albritton Jonsson shows that there was a much more gradual and multidimensional development of the first coal economy, stretching from the deep mine and ironworks to the household and the global food system. Albritton Jonsson explores not only the material forces behind the British energy path but also how ideas about fossil fuel energy reoriented politics and society toward a new ideal of growth. At the same time an environmental and political history of Britain’s energy transformation, Infinite Coal explains why and how coal became so deeply embedded in our way of life. Albritton Jonsson argues that the most important legacy of Britain’s early fossil fuel economy is fossil cornucopianism—the idea of a bountiful, never-ending energy source—which still haunts modern politics and economics.

How Britain Became the First Fossil Fuel Economy

Infinite Coal

Priya Kobold ist die Nachfahrin einer mächtigen Hexe, die die Aufgabe hatte, ein Relikt zu bewachen. Im Laufe der Zeit ging allerdings das Relikt und das alte Wissen über Magie verloren. Als ihr eröffnet wird, dass sie die Auserwählte ist, die das Erbe der Hexe antreten soll, ist sie zunächst verwirrt. Doch das Böse nimmt darauf keine Rücksicht. Es ist ebenfalls am Relikt interessiert und ihr auf den Fersen. Ein Wettlauf mit der Zeit beginnt, der über das Schicksal der gesamten Welt entscheiden wird.

Hexenblut - Das Relikt der Ahnin

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.

Enemies & Lovers

 Auf der Suche nach dem Mann, dem sie vor einem Jahr ihre Seele verkauft hat, gerät Enya an den erbarmungslosen Seelenhändler Spades. Weil er ihre einzige Chance ist, sich nicht selbst zu verlieren, geht sie einen verhängnisvollen Deal mit ihm ein. Obwohl Spades ihr Verderben sein könnte, fühlt sie sich auf verbotene Weise zu ihm hingezogen und besiegelt damit ihr Schicksal. Gebunden an einen Mann, der ihre Seele und ihren Körper, nicht jedoch ihr Herz will, droht Enya in seinem Schattenreich zu versinken ...
 'My Soul to Keep' gehört zur Dark Romantasy-Dilogie 'Enemies &amp; Lovers' (unabhängig lesbar).

 ***Leseprobe***

 

 Obwohl er nicht fest zudrückte, fühlte sich mein Hals auf einmal ganz eng an, das Blut rauschte lauter in meinen Ohren, und mir wurde schummrig zumute. Ich wollte wütend auf ihn sein, ihn hassen für das falsche Spiel, das er mit mir spielte, doch zu meiner Überraschung konnte nicht einmal der verfluchte Teil von mir solche Gefühle für ihn empfinden. Genauso wenig konnte er verhindern, dass mein Blick wie von selbst hinab zu Spades' Lippen wanderte ...

 

 Eine Reaktion, die ihm nicht entging. Ein verführerisches Lächeln umspielte seine Mundwinkel, und mit seinem Griff zwang er meinen Kopf in den Nacken, sodass es nur noch eine winzige Bewegung gebraucht hätte, um unsere Münder miteinander verschmelzen zu lassen. 'Und die zweite Regel lautet', raunte er. 'Je mehr du mich von dir wegstößt, desto härter werde ich in dich stoßen, sobald sich mir die Gelegenheit dazu bietet.'

 

 Mein Fluch setzte sofort ein, und ich verengte die Augen. 'Du wirst niemals die Gelegenheit bekommen.'

 

 Spades verzog keine Miene. 'Mach dir nichts vor. Ich kann deine Seele sehen. Und ich sehe, wie sie anfängt zu glühen, wenn du mit mir sprichst. Wenn ich dich berühre. Ich weiß genau, was du willst, und ich werde es dir geben. Früher oder später.' Seine Lippen teilten sich leicht, als sein Blick über meine glitt. 'Ich werde mich in dir versenken. Ich werde in dir untergehen.'

A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to the First World War, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.

Das Zeitmobil - Flucht aus der Vergangenheit (Band 3)

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.

Facing the Child

This open access book introduces the first systematic approach to the debate on the unity or fragmentation of practical reasoning and its profound implications for legal philosophy. Bringing together some of the foremost legal philosophers from the Hispanic-Latin world, the book presents a thoughtful dialogue with the Anglo-American literature, making it of interest to scholars from both cultural traditions. Although the topic is rarely discussed explicitly and systematically, it is pivotal to ongoing debates about legal normativity, the nature of law, legal authority, and the rationale behind legal decisions. This book fills this gap by providing a comprehensive perspective that illuminates the intersections between the philosophy of law and the philosophy of practical reasoning. It analyses law from the perspective of the agent and offers deep insights into critical issues in the field of law. The volume is divided into four parts. The 1st part addresses the question of the nature of reasons and the unity of practical and theoretical reasoning. The 2nd part deals with the question of whether practical reasoning works in a unified or fragmented way. The 3rd section examines the autonomy of legal normativity in relation to morality and other normative domains. In the 4th and concluding section, the authors analyse the implications of the thesis of the unity of practical reason for legal decision-making and the authority of law. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Law and the Unity of Practical Reasoning

On the Calculation of Volume

We're a little more than halfway through Balle's hypnotic, monumental seven-volume novel about a woman set adrift within the walls of November 18th. Balle's riveting project continues to wring ever more fascinating dimensions from time and its hapless, mortal captives. In Book III we saw the addition of a handful of new characters to Tara's world-fellow travelers within November 18th-and now Book IV heralds the arrival of many others, and soon to be even more, roaming uncertainly through the same November day. Could this be the first stirrings of an alternate civilization? The big house in Bremen turns into the headquarters for this growing group of time-trapped individuals. But who are they and what has happened to them? Are they loopers, repeaters, or returners? A brilliant modern spin on the myth of Babel in the Book of Genesis, Book IV asks urgent questions, concerning the naming of things, of people, and of the functions of language itself-must a social movement have a common language in order to exist? Snatches of conversation, argument, and late-night chatter crowd onto the pages of Tara's notebooks. Amid the buzz and excitement of a new social order coming into being, Book IV ends with a sudden, unexpected, and tantalizing cliffhanger that no one-not even Tara, our steady cataloger and cartographer of the endless November day-could have foreseen.
