Future of Work in Asia

Transforming Work Models, Workforce Dynamics and Workplace Technology

From renowned, prize-winning historian Frank Dikötter - 'the historian of China' (Spectator) - a commanding new history of China's path to Communism, brought to the people at the barrel of a gun The history of modern China has long been portrayed as a tale of Communists fighting in the hills for freedom, gradually gaining popular support by taking land from the rich and giving it to the poor. Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence, Red Dawn Over China reveals how unlikely the Party's victory actually was, had it not been for financial and military support from the Soviet Union. Established in 1921 under the direct guidance of Moscow, for the best part of a decade the Communist Party left a trail of destruction, besieging towns and plundering the countryside. When the Communists managed to hold territory, they reduced the villagers to a state of servitude, undermining belief in their cause as well as the local economy. By 1936 they had the same popular appeal as an obscure religious sect. A brutal war of occupation by Japan allowed them to survive far behind enemy lines. After Soviet troops invaded Manchuria in 1945 and provided more money and munitions, the Communists at long last prevailed through a pitiless war of attrition, driven by an unflinching will to conquer at all costs. In this riveting tale told with great narrative verve, Frank Dikötter reveals how thirteen delegates gathered in a dusty room in 1921 ended up raising the red flag over the Forbidden City in 1949, forever altering the course of history for a quarter of humanity and shaping the world as we know it today. Praise for Frank Dikötter and the People's Trilogy: 'Harrowing and brilliant' Ben Macintyre 'Gripping and masterful' Simon Sebag Montefiore 'One of the few books that anyone who wants to understand the twentieth century simply must read' New Statesman

Today, art practices unfold across physical sites and digital platforms. In her study, Ludovica Tomarchio reveals how museums, art districts, and small cultural venues are reshaped by the logics of social media, influencing visibility, public experience, and spatial practices. Through detailed case studies from Singapore and beyond, this book demonstrates how architecture, curatorial practices, and social media platform cultures interact in processes of hybrid spatial production.

Rassismus ist nicht nur eine individuelle Herausforderung für einzelne Menschen, sondern wirkt auch tief in gesellschaftliche Institutionen und Strukturen hinein. Doch wie erscheint Rassismus in konkreten Kontexten? Die Beiträger*innen liefern einen interdisziplinären Überblick zu Bereichen wie Bildung, Soziale Arbeit, Kultur, Wirtschaft und Justiz.&nbsp;Überdies nehmen sie mit künstlicher Intelligenz und Klimakrise auch Phänomene in den Blick, die bislang eher selten mit Rassismus zusammengedacht werden. Die im Rahmen des Nationalen Diskriminierungs- und Rassismusmonitors (NaDiRa) entstandenen Analysen bieten&nbsp;hochrelevante&nbsp; Erkenntnisse zu den Erscheinungsformen, Kontinuitäten und Folgen von Rassismus in Deutschland.

Disasters engage with time in diverse ways and cannot be fully understood as events or processes. Tomás Usón explores how time emerges from disastrous encounters. Building on ethnographic research in the Callejón de Huaylas, he analyses how cities in this Peruvian Andean region have responded to and anticipated extreme events over the past century. Inspired by the Quechua word tinkuy, or gathering in difference, this study invites readers to see disasters both as socio-material arrangements and moments where historical figures gather in conflicting ways: a valuable resource for those interested in disasters, memory, science and technology studies, decolonial perspectives and Peruvian history.

Remembering Future Disasters

Why the consequences of a prolonged period of weaker economic growth will be more profound than anyone dares to predictIn the heady progress of the post-war era, our lifestyles changed, our political systems adapted, and rapid economic growth became the model of every developed economy. But this prevailing consensus is falling apart around us. Growth is now, at best, no more than anaemic. Policymakers dream about an AI revolution and tweak their fiscal rules to accommodate a newly-austere economic reality but, all the while, government debt soars, financial markets become increasingly jittery, and voters lose trust in their politicians.Celebrated economist Stephen D. King asks how our politics will adapt to such persistently low growth. While leaders make fiscal promises based on a future that is unlikely to materialise, nationalism thrives, battlelines are drawn between perceived winners and losers, and the rules-based international order crumbles. The absence of growth triggers invidious political wrangling over tax, welfare, defence and infrastructure, intensifies competition for resources, and leads to social instability.King shows how our new world is governed by them-and-us divisions over limited economic spoils. This is the political economy of plunder.&nbsp;

'Deeply moving and necessary'ANNE ENRIGHT'A must-read'iPAPER'Original and heart-warming' LINDSEY HILSUM'Remarkable ... the perfect antidote to our times'CHRISTINA LAMBFrom the Orwell Prize-winning author of My Fourth Time, We Drownedcomes a powerful account of human resilience, capturing our capacity for love and connection against all odds.We live in an era defined by crisis - whether it be war and displacement, or climate collapse and rapidly widening inequality. Acclaimed international correspondent Sally Hayden has spent her career covering some of the darkest moments of our time, and yet even in the face of unimaginable adversity, she's witnessed the love and care of everyday people.Hayden introduces us to a couple separated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and a mother in northeast Nigeria who risks everything to save her daughter from forced marriage to Boko Haram militants. We meet a group of Syrian women searching tirelessly for their missing spouses and children, while launching a call for justice, and learn about letters from the bereaved to the dead, still being written over a decade after the tsunami that devastated Japan.In stories that crisscross the globe, from Uganda to Lebanon, Rwanda to Iraq, Hayden asks us: what if news was recounted through the actions people take for those they love? Would it become harder to dehumanise those who seem different to us? This is Also a Love Story dares us to recognise how love can be found in even the most difficult of times, and to question what might be needed to create a better world.'Moving ...

Shanghai actively uses culture to promote itself as a global city. This book explores how this has been conceived and pursued, and what questions it raises for notions of 'culture' and 'economy' as understood in the West. If theoretical work around the 'cultural economy' has problematized these two, this book locates these debates empirically in a non-western metropolis.

The Urban Book Series

Disrupting traditional notions of urban and city planning, this volume examines the intricate interplay of conflicts, the emergence of new borders for refugees and migrants, colonial legacies and postcolonial policies, and grassroots struggles for better social policies. As the second volume complementing 
 Border Urbanism: Transdisciplinary Perspectives
 (2023), 
 Urbanism at Borders: Navigating New Frontiers in a Globalized World
 presents a comprehensive exploration of the evolving urban fabric, highlighting 32 of the most compelling, under-explored themes presented at the second Urbanism at Borders Global conference, convened in 2019 in Malaga, Spain. These chapters scrutinize various aspects of border trends to better understand how spatial justice, urban form and the lives of marginalized and common citizens are affected by borders.
 Authors in this volume examine the perception, interpretation, and nature of borders, shedding light on their transformative influence on historical, cultural, and socioeconomic interests. The book focuses on how urban border conditions determine the mobility of goods, resources, and populations, defining interactions and relationships that extend from geopolitical relations to the intricacies of everyday life. Temporal issues arising from diverse urban conditions are addressed, with each chapter contributing to a critical discourse on border urbanism and the nuanced interplay between conflict and coexistence resulting from the delineation, separation, and segregation imposed by borders. This volume goes beyond conventional discourses on borders, exploring often overlooked or hereto-thought unrelated dimensions such as tourism and housing. By broadening the narrative to encompass these critical aspects, this volume enhances understandings of and proposes solutions to contemporary challenges, recognizing that borders–and their effects–manifest at different scales and in different ways.

Studies in Private International Law - Asia

This book examines the interaction between Islam and private international law in Asia. The analysis distinguishes between Muslim-majority and non-Muslim jurisdictions. Among the former, a further distinction can be drawn between Muslim-majority jurisdictions where Islamic law continues to exert a strong influence on both substantive and procedural law (including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Brunei), and those where the law has been largely secularized (such as Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan). Among the latter, non-Muslim jurisdictions can likewise be divided into two groups: those with a significant Muslim minority, often granted a certain degree of judicial or legal autonomy (such as India, the Philippines, and Thailand); and those where Muslims constitute only a small minority and where no special legal or judicial framework exists (including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China). In Muslim-majority jurisdictions, the main question concerns the influence of Islamic law on the private international law treatment of cross-border cases. In non-Muslim jurisdictions, the main question concerns the acceptance of foreign law based on or influenced by Islamic law or judgments rendered in application of such laws. The chapters put the question of the interrelation between Islam and private international law in its broader theoretical context, examining the differences and similarities between the various approaches and proposing suggestions that bridge the gap between sometimes opposing approaches. The book sheds light on the multifaceted interrelation between Islam and private international law in Asia from both a theoretical and practical angle. It offers a unique perspective in which cultural and religious diversity meets private international law. This invaluable book provides judges, practitioners, decision-makers, and scholars with a practical guide and an indispensable reference to understanding this complex issue within the Asian context.
