A leader remembered, a legacy contested yet enduring. This collection traces John Pombe Magufuli's ascent as both symbol and statesman-a figure whose reforms struck like lightning and whose resolve reshaped national ethos. It situates Magufuli within Tanzania's historical and political continuum, illuminating his revolutionary vision, his disciplined governance, and his defiance of imposed paradigms. "Hapa kazi tu", his mantra emerges not merely as a slogan but as a philosophical framework rooted in African self-belief, cultural affirmation, and developmental sovereignty. Through poetic reflection and scholarly insight, these pages examine the man, the myth, and the memory. They reveal a leader who challenged complacency and reclaimed national purpose. Magufuli's legacy is cast alongside Nyerere, Kenyatta, Nkrumah, Sankara, and Mandela, revealing a shared pursuit of African autonomy. His pragmatism, bold reforms, and actiondriven leadership mark him as a pivotal voice in Africa's future trajectory. A resonant tribute to a figure whose imprint continues to provoke thought and inspire conviction.

Mwaba wa Afrika

John Pombe Magufuli

As inequality, inflation, and overwhelming corporate power threaten democracy, a rising-star economist asks what it would mean to create an anti-fascist economics that guarantees dignity for all. On the night of President Trump's second presidential victory, economist Isabella Weber tweeted: "Can we now finally have a serious conversation about an anti-fascist economics?" In her view, Democrats had missed the seriousness of the affordability crisis in the wake of pandemic-era inflation. By refusing to step in to protect their constituencies against corporate profiteering and price shocks in essentials, they left room amidst the global crisis for the resurgence of the politics of resentment that Trump and the right reveled in. Her question, though, was a bold one with implications that reached far beyond one election. In a neoliberal world, we tell people at the same time: Democracy is the highest form of political organization. And: When it comes to the economy, to the material foundation of our life, the best the representatives of the people can do is to subordinate their constituencies to the corporate pursuit of profits. This basic contradiction between the rule of the people and the rule of the market makes neoliberal democracy vulnerable to the threat of fascism, she argues. Economists have too often acted as prophets of market subordination and ended up waxing the slippery slope to fascism. Isabella Weber knows that if we are serious about saving democracy and preventing the further rise of fascists, we need an economics that serves democracy and centers people's needs and dignity rather than seeing their fulfillment as a welcome side effect in the pursuit of other goals. In Anti-Fascist Economics, Weber proposes just such a way out. She envisions an economics that strives to make life on our planet livable for all, that confronts rather than conceals corporate power, and that charts the way towards international cooperation rather than getting stuck in the dichotomy of free trade and trade wars. To halt the further rise of fascism, we need a tangible alternative to the dystopian status quo, she insists, one that takes affordability seriously as a foundation of democracy. In this paradigm-shifting book, Weber recalls a history of mid-twentieth-century economists for whom "never again" was the North star and reinvents their thinking for our day.

Studies in Private International Law

This groundbreaking book offers an in-depth exploration of the complex and evolving landscape of the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments across Africa. Covering more than 26 jurisdictions, it spans a remarkable diversity of linguistic traditions (including English, French, Arabic, and Portuguese), religious contexts (such as Christian-majority and Muslim-majority countries), and legal systems (ranging from common law and civil law to mixed jurisdictions). As the first comprehensive study of its kind, the book examines national procedures, legal regimes, and institutional frameworks, combining theoretical insights with practical analysis. It sheds light on the multifaceted challenges that arise in cross-border civil and commercial litigation and reflects on the prospects for legal harmonization and reform within the continent. Drawing on the most up-to-date case law and legislative developments, both domestic and regional, the book offers a unique and timely contribution to understanding the mechanisms-current and emerging-that govern the movement of judgments across African borders. A practical guide and indispensable reference for practitioners, academics, judges, students, and policy makers alike, this invaluable book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of foreign judgments recognition and enforcement in Africa, with all its intricacies and complexities.

ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES AND THE ATLANTIC’S TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR • ONE OF BARACK OBAMA’S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR • Through the “revelatory and gut-wrenching” (Associated Press) stories of five Atlanta families, this landmark work of journalism exposes a new and troubling trend—the dramatic rise of the working homeless in cities across America. “An exceptional feat of reporting, full of an immediacy that calls to mind Adrian Nicole LeBlanc’s Random Family and Matthew Desmond’s Evicted.”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice) FINALIST FOR THE ANDREW CARNEGIE MEDAL, THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE, AND THE BERNSTEIN AWARD • A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: NPR, The Washington Post, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Elle, New America, BookPage, Shelf Awareness The working homeless. In a country where hard work and determination are supposed to lead to success, there is something scandalous about this phrase. But skyrocketing rents, low wages, and a lack of tenant rights have produced a startling phenomenon: People with full-time jobs cannot keep a roof over their head, especially in America’s booming cities, where rapid growth is leading to catastrophic displacement. These families are being forced into homelessness not by a failing economy but a thriving one. In this gripping and deeply reported book, Brian Goldstone plunges readers into the lives of five Atlanta families struggling to remain housed in a gentrifying, increasingly unequal city. Maurice and Natalia make a fresh start in the country’s “Black Mecca” after being priced out of DC. Kara dreams of starting her own cleaning business while mopping floors at a public hospital. Britt scores a coveted housing voucher. Michelle is in school to become a social worker. Celeste toils at her warehouse job while undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer. Each of them aspires to provide a decent life for their children—and each of them, one by one, joins the ranks of the nation’s working homeless. Through intimate, novelistic portraits, Goldstone reveals the human cost of this crisis, following parents and their kids as they go to sleep in cars, or in squalid extended-stay hotel rooms, and head out to their jobs and schools the next morning. These are the nation’s hidden homeless—omitted from official statistics, and proof that overflowing shelters and street encampments are only the most visible manifestation of a far more pervasive problem. By turns heartbreaking and urgent, There Is No Place for Us illuminates the true magnitude, causes, and consequences of the new American homelessness—and shows that it won’t be solved until housing is treated as a fundamental human right.

Working and Homeless in America

There Is No Place for Us

A searing exposé of the new tools of corporate profiteering and a field guide to the deceptive tactics companies are using to cheat consumers out of their money—and how we can get ahead of them—from a leading voice in economic policy and executive director of a corporate watchdog think tank Everywhere you turn, Americans are getting ripped off: Landlords use software to band together and organize artificial rent hikes. Ride-sharing apps spike the price of trips when your phone is about to die. Online ticket sellers hide behind exorbitant processing fees. And car companies install software that reports your driving behavior to insurance companies so that they can raise your premiums. Price gouging is the latest frontier in corporate profiteering—and it’s gutting the American economy and your wallet. In Gouged, economist and veteran consumer advocate Lindsay Owens takes us inside the corporate boardrooms where pricing decisions are made, uncovering the tricks, traps, and outright fraud corporations use to jack up the price you pay at checkout. From data collection to drone surveillance, modern technology provides companies a staggering arsenal of sophisticated tools to squeeze as much money out of consumers as possible, bringing in record profits as a result. Drawing on original reporting, shareholder meeting transcripts, and rigorous economic analysis, Owens takes aim at big-tech behemoths, airlines, health insurance companies, and more to pull back the curtain on how price gougers are coming for almost every line item in your household budget, from doctors’ visits to rent, groceries, and even your summer vacation. Gouged arms us with the essential knowledge we need to first recognize, then sidestep the traps that corporations try to conceal from us. In a world where price gouging has become ubiquitous, Gouged is necessary reading for anyone looking to stay an informed consumer, save money rather than surrender it to greedy CEOs, and stand up for fair prices in America.

Cette œuvre traite des questions cruciales relatives à la lutte menée par les marginalisés contre les systèmes oppressifs en Afrique de nos jours. La problématique de la corruption, du tribalisme et de la mauvaise gérance y est traitée avec acuité, mettant en relief les défis du discours subalterne dans un contexte postcolonial. L'auteur explore avec finesse les paradigmes étatiques qui silencent les voix subalternes, perpétuant ainsi les inégalités socio-économiques sur le continent africain. Ce travail contribue à amplifier les voix subalternes. Il est essentiel pour comprendre les dynamiques de pouvoir en Afrique contemporaine. Il serait intéressant d'explorer davantage les pistes de résistance et de mobilisation face à ces systèmes oppressifs. - Professeur Patrice Nganang, Stony Brook University, New York, USA

Dumela Rra Duma Boko is a work of laudatory poetry that celebrates the dawn of a new era. It explores the path toward reclaiming Botswana's dignity and recapturing the "lost glory" of the African continent. The collection offers vital nuggets of wisdom for President Duma Boko as he confronts the deep-seated challenges of inequity, poverty, and corruption. While encouraging the President to deliver on his promises, the poem also serves as a sharp critique of past leaders who treated the presidency as a family business. It is both a celebration of potential and a stern warning against the evils that have historically hindered African progress.
