Thoughtful advice on how to leave academia gracefully and build your best life in retirement Retirement is one of the most challenging transitions in an academic's career, and it's natural to feel overwhelmed by the changes that lie ahead. This how-to guide explains how to structure your last few years of employment so that you retire well and feel good about it. Drawing on engaging personal stories from across academia, it shares concrete tips for letting go of one key phase of life and embracing the opportunity to reinvent yourself in the next. On Retiring makes the case that you have the ultimate say in charting your path through retirement, aging, and whatever comes next after academia--and provides the guidance you need to do so. Susan Shaw describes the lessons she learned from her own retirement experience and those of her colleagues, highlighting what worked and what didn't while paying special attention to the things that make the academic workplace unique. She outlines the four-year retirement plan she developed for herself and suggest some steps colleges and universities can take to honor the service of faculty members and help them to stay connected after retirement. Along the way, Shaw examines some of the downsides of aging in the academy and discusses relevant differences in academic experiences, covering topics such as gender, race, and sexuality. Focusing on so much more than just financial planning, On Retiring empowers you with social, psychological, and philosophical tools to leave the academy on your own terms and thrive in retirement.

In&nbsp;Famous, internationally bestselling author Matt Thorne examines seven moments in music when stars from pop, rock and hip-hop have collided - and how the resulting reverberations impacted everything from the cultural landscape to the decisions of world leaders.

A rollicking, eye-opening history of the Star Wars franchise: an unrivaled force in popular culture that changed the way Hollywood makes movies—and that is now imperiled by many of the industry forces it set in motion From the premiere of the first film in 1977, the Star Wars franchise not only captured the imaginations of billions of people—and&nbsp;billions&nbsp;of dollars of revenue—but also rewrote the rules of the entertainment industry. Game-changing special effects, must-have collectibles, and the richness of George Lucas’s ever-expanding narrative&nbsp;gave rise to a new Hollywood model in which the boundary between screen and life collapsed. Star Wars wasn’t just a movie, after all: it was&nbsp;an alternate universe, a moral code, a way of life. Over the last half-century, Wall Street Journal reporter Erich Schwartzel explains, the Star Wars franchise has relied on an anti-establishment ethos, the savvy of executives, and the devotion of moviegoers to become a new American myth. But since its fateful acquisition by Disney in 2012, Star Wars has become a cautionary tale of Hollywood excess, and its present status as a corporate holding bears little resemblance to its origins. Drawing on scores of insider interviews and surveying fifty years of American culture and commerce, Schwartzel delivers fresh perspective on the Star Wars story, bringing to life the scrappy creative spirit of Lucasfilm’s early days; the box-office frenzy that rang in Hollywood’s blockbuster era and gave rise to a new industry playbook; and the scores of fans whose lives have been shaped by this singular force. A panoramic narrative of dreams, obsession, and power, Rebels and Empires is the untold history of Hollywood’s most storied epic.

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.

Wie neurechte Medien demokratische Öffentlichkeit und Deutungshoheit umkämpfen

Neue Medien wie Nius, Compact, Apollo News oder {ungeskriptet} by Ben präsentieren sich als Stimme einer unterdrückten Mehrheit und zeigen, wie die Neue Rechte Medienmacht gewinnt. Sie versprechen einen Raum radikaler Meinungsfreiheit, in dem alles sagbar, denkbar und diskutierbar scheint. Doch sind sie Ausdruck pluralistischer Vielfalt oder gefährden sie die Demokratie?
Marcus S. Kleiner erklärt, wie neue Medien und gesellschaftliche Spaltung zusammenwirken und zeigt, wie sich im Medienökosystem der Neuen Rechten Aufmerksamkeit in Macht verwandelt.

Die Medienmacht der Neuen Rechten

For the first time available from Penguin Classics U.S., a new translation for one of the greatest writers of twentieth-century France A Penguin Classic Claudine lives in a large house with a rose-filled garden and a vegetable patch smelling of tomato leaves and apricots.

Inside her house are Mama, who loves animals, Papa, who lost his leg in the war, and a library full of forbidden and irresistible books . . . Based on Colette’s own early life, Claudine’s House is a rich and enchanting depiction of childhood, animals, flowers, trees, books, families, and love in late-nineteenth-century France. Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Hart Studies in Private Law

This book provides a comprehensive study of two parallel notions of civil and common law: cause and consideration. It does this in three ways; with historical, comparative, and functional perspectives. Aspects of cause and consideration are hotly contested by contract lawyers and this book will bring clarity by looking at the English and Continental positions. Key areas of focus include: enforceability, questions of legality and morality, contractual justice, and the correction of unjustified property displacements. Bringing together a team of experts, the book discusses (in some cases for the first time in English) complex questions of both academic and practical importance.

Cause and Consideration

Unser Blick auf Sexualität und Gender wurde lange Zeit von der Vorstellung geprägt, dass alles außerhalb der heterosexuellen Orientierung und der binären Geschlechteraufteilung unnatürlich sei. Bis heute glauben viele, dass die Evolution dies vorgäbe, weil es dem Gesetz der Fortpflanzung diene. Vereinzelte Beispiele aus dem Tierreich wie Clownfische, die ihr Geschlecht umwandeln, oder homosexuelles Verhalten bei Pinguinen wurden und werden fälschlicherweise als Ausnahmen betrachtet. 
Um seine Standpunkte zu verdeutlichen, nimmt uns der renommierte Biologe Nathan H. Lents mit auf eine Reise durch das Liebesleben der Tiere, aber auch des Menschen. Es stellt sich heraus, dass die Fluidität von Geschlecht kein neues Phänomen ist. Lents erklärt, dass es in der Natur von Vorteil sein kann, homo-, pan- oder bisexuell zu sein: ob bei schwul lebenden Gänsen oder bisexuellen Bonobos. 
Lents deckt Vorurteile auf und zeigt, dass am Ende der Kern der Evolution nicht die Fortpflanzung, sondern das Erzeugen von Diversität ist.
