Evans Alfred B.: Russian Civil Society:
A Critical Assessment

Russian Civil Society: A Critical Assessment

A Critical Assessment

'Buckle your trousers, fasten your seatbelts, here comes Kate Lister. Her curious history of sex is a wild ride, made all the more enjoyable by a wonderfully irreverent approach . . . I've never had so much fun learning stuff' The Times 'Had Victoria Wood decided to write a scholarly book about sex, it would be like this. Lister has a saucy wit . . . I laughed out loud.' Daily Mail 'Lister romps her way through masturbation, menstruation and prostitution, the invention of condoms, the use of vibrators to cure hysteria and much more . . . Glorious' Evening Standard This is not a comprehensive study of every sexual quirk, kink and ritual across all cultures throughout time, as that would entail writing an encyclopaedia. Rather, this is a drop in the ocean, a paddle in the shallow end of sex history, but I hope you will get pleasantly wet nonetheless. The act of sex has not changed since people first worked out what went where, but the ways in which society dictates how sex is culturally understood and performed have varied significantly through the ages. Humans are the only creatures that stigmatise particular sexual practices, and sex remains a deeply divisive issue around the world. Attitudes will change and grow - hopefully for the better - but sex will never be free of stigma or shame unless we acknowledge where it has come from.Based on the popular research project Whores of Yore, and written with her distinctive humour and wit, A Curious History of Sex draws upon Dr Kate Lister's extensive knowledge of sex history. From medieval impotence tests to twentieth-century testicle thefts, from the erotic frescoes of Pompeii, to modern-day sex doll brothels, Kate unashamedly roots around in the pants of history, debunking myths, challenging stereotypes and generally getting her hands dirty. This fascinating book is peppered with surprising and informative historical slang, and illustrated with eye-opening, toe-curling and meticulously sourced images from the past. You will laugh, you will wince and you will wonder just how much has actually changed.

A Curious History of Sex

In Devil Take the Hindmost, Edward Chancellor traces the origins of the speculative spirit back to the publicani of ancient Rome and chronicles its revival in the modern world: from the tulip scandal of 1630s Holland and 'stockjobbing' in London's Exchange Alley, to the infamous South Sea Bubble of 1720, which prompted Sir Isaac Newton to comment, 'I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.' This revised and updated edition analyses with characteristic liveliness and precision the end of the dot-com bubble, the property value speculations that culminated in the 2008 financial crisis, the 'Everything Bubble' of the pandemic years and the gigantic speculations of Artificial Intelligence. This is the story of human hopes and folly through the ages, populated by brokers underwriting risks that included highway robbery and the 'assurance of female chastity'; credit notes and lottery tickets circulating as money; wise and unwise investors from Alexander Pope and Benjamin Disraeli to Hillary Rodham Clinton and well-known leaders of our own time.

Kindheits- und Jugendgeschichte

Das Ausmaß der Kinderarbeit in Deutschland außerhalb von Fabriken war bislang weitgehend unbekannt. Manuel Schramm zeigt am Beispiel Sachsens neue Perspektiven für die historische Forschung zur Kinderarbeit auf. Dabei greift er ungelöste Fragen der bisherigen Literatur, wie beispielsweise den Einfluss des technischen Wandels oder die Ursachen des Rückgangs der Kinderarbeit, auf und behandelt auch Aspekte wie die Höhe und Entwicklung der Löhne sowie die Unterschiede zwischen Jungen und Mädchen. Es zeigt sich, dass Kinderarbeit weiter verbreitet war als bisher angenommen und sich nicht nur auf die Unterschichten beschränkte.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERThe world's criminals earn trillions every year. They keep almost all of it. Every effort to stop them has failed. Why? Join Oliver Bullough through the looking glass, voyaging through the dark heart of the global economy: where flows of dirty banknotes, designer goods and baby eels prop up illicit networks spanning from Miami to Shanghai - via, strangely, North Oxfordshire. Cryptocurrencies flow through ledgers that would look familiar to a fifteenth-century Florentine banker. Casinos, lottery tickets and government ignorance all power the merry-go-round of dirty money. And it all works brilliantly. Better than ever. There has never been a better time to be a criminal. It's time that changed.

DOGA 2025

Genus Homo

Olmo Gómez Aldaz (Bilbao, 1971) es víctima de sustracción de identidad y adopción fraudulenta. Registrado como expósito y criado con una filiación falsa, tardó casi cuarenta años en encontrar a su familia biológica y confirmar, mediante prueba de ADN, su verdadera filiación. Licenciado en Ciencias Físicas y profesor de matemáticas, lucha por el reconocimiento de los crímenes de identidad y la reparación de sus víctimas.

DOGA 2025 no es una novela ni una autoficción: es la declaración personal de una víctima de sustracción de identidad y adopción fraudulenta que decide poner por escrito, de forma ordenada y verificable, cómo el Estado y la Iglesia destruyeron su filiación y la mantuvieron oculta durante más de medio siglo.

El libro reproduce íntegramente el documento DOGA presentado como declaración de víctima ante la Ley 20/2022, acompañado de un preámbulo jurídico y de un archivo de pruebas que incluye registros civiles y parroquiales, escrituras notariales, informes periciales, pruebas de ADN, autos y sentencias que restituyen la filiación biológica de Olmo Gómez Aldaz. Pagina a página, el lector puede seguir la pista documental de un caso concreto que, sin embargo, habla de miles.

Esta obra es, a la vez, memoria personal, pieza jurídica y denuncia política. DOGA 2025 pone nombre a los crímenes de identidad cometidos a través de la adopción y reclama verdad, justicia y reparación para quienes fueron convertidos en "expósitos" a la fuerza. No es un libro cómodo, pero sí necesario.

La batalla por mi identidad

A Financial Times Book of the Year No other phenomenon has shaped human history as decisively as capitalism. It structures how we live and work, how we think about ourselves and others, how we organise our politics. Sven Beckert situates the story of capitalism within the largest conceivable geographical and historical framework in this fascinating new book. Capitalism, argues Beckert, was born global. Emerging from merchant communities across Asia, Africa and Europe, capitalism's radical recasting of economic life rooted itself only gradually. Then it burst onto the world scene, as European states and merchants built a powerful alliance that would propel them across the oceans. This epic drama corresponded at no point to an idealised dream of free markets. All along, state-backed institutions and imperial expansions shaped its dynamics. Capitalism decentres the European perspective, highlighting agency, resistance, innovation and ruthless coercion around the world through to the present with the rise of Asian economies, particularly China. Sven Beckert doesn't merely add up capitalism's debits and credits in this monumental book, but allows us to think afresh about the past to help us re-imagine the future.

Power of Rulers, Power of Rules: Russia’s Legal Dualism in Action

The Rule of Law in Russia

The rivetingly tense and timely conclusion to the Arkady Renko series - an iconic character from a titan of the political crime thriller genre. When Arkady Renko is charged with investigating the murder of Alexei Kazasky, the Deputy Minister of Defence, he knows he has to tread carefully. Alexei Kazasky is a high-profile politician and has a complicated relationship with Putin. This investigation clearly has Kremlin approval, but, as with everything in Russia, things are not always what they seem. Already preoccupied with his developing Parkinson's, Arkady finds he has more to worry about. The war in Ukraine is gaining momentum, and his adopted son Zhenya has become involved with the Black Army, a Russo-Ukrainian group of hacktivists. Moreover, as Arkady digs deeper into Kazasky's murder, he realizes that the man's death may have been more politically motivated than he first assumed. Now it seems that the people behind the killing have him firmly in their crosshairs - but this time Arkady's life is not the only one on the line. PRAISE FOR MARTIN CRUZ SMITH: 'Does more on a page than most writers manage in a chapter. He is unique and irreplaceable' MICK HERRON 'Among the first of a new generation of writers who made thrillers literary' GUARDIAN 'One of those writers that anyone who is serious about their craft views with respect bordering on awe' VAL McDERMID¿ 'The undisputed master of the political crime thriller' ABIR MUKHERJEE 'One of the finest writers of our age' CHARLOTTE PHILBY&nbsp;
