Truth, Freedom and One Man's Last Journey

'An outstanding dual biography... Dinshaw's book is profoundly entertaining, startling in its depth, and a necessary cautionary tale about the human cost of political division' Daily Telegraph Two old friends end up on opposite sides of the English Civil War, in this dazzling history from the acclaimed author of Outlandish Knight At the Inns of Court, the intellectual, literary, and social heart of early 17th century London, many pivotal friendships were forged: few closer than that of Bulstrode Whitelocke and Edward (Ned) Hyde. Both young men were lively characters, industrious, well-connected, principled and optimistic. They dreamed of reforming the government of Charles I, a young court with age-old problems, by restoring the traditional harmony of Crown and Parliament. This is the story of how their hopes climbed, overreached, and fell into an abyss of relentless civil war. This highly original, vivid and engaging book recreates the atmosphere, drama, players and ideas of what is arguably England's (and Britain's) most crucial and traumatic formative period. Through the stories of his two protagonists, Minoo Dinshaw shows how subtle religious and political differences, careful personal judgments, and mere happenstance combined to place these two friends, most reluctantly, on opposite sides in the English Civil Wars. They would both survive, unlike many thousands of others, into old age; both would become influential historians, shaping how we still understand the conflicts of their age. But their friendship, like the once hopeful country in which it had first flourished, would be forever changed: permanently marred by what both men believed to be senseless and unnecessary civil strife.

Friends in Youth

For more than two decades, Marwan Barghouti has been held in an Israeli prison cell, much of that time in total isolation. Yet his voice has never been forgotten. Described by the Economist as 'the world's most important prisoner' and often referred to as Palestine's Mandela, Barghouti remains the most widely supported Palestinian political leader. As a long-standing advocate of peace grounded in justice and equality, he has become an enduring symbol of unity and hope - even from behind bars. Unbroken brings together, for the first time, a powerful and intimate portrait of Barghouti's life and struggle for a free Palestine: private letters to his family, personal writings, correspondence with global public figures, press interviews, public statements and rare personal photographs. This is his story, in his own words. Unsilenced, unbroken.

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This open access book presents an all-encompassing way to understand lobbying: the 'Diversion Guide'. This shows that lobbying is problematic when institutions are diverted from acting in the public interest. It reveals why diversions happen, how they are linked together, and what can be done to prevent them. The reader can use the 'Diversion Guide' to identify any problem about lobbying, and test when an officeholder has been diverted from acting in the public interest. The book examines how lobbying can encourage citizen participation and lead to informed law and policy, but is not always fair. It considers the way in which wealthy and influential people can gain greater access to the United Kingdom's political system than most to shape the laws that govern everyone. Scandals are often reported in the media surrounding unequal access, corruption, the revolving door, and more. Unchecked, such lobbying corrodes trust in public institutions. It is vital that the problems surrounding lobbying are clearly understood to avoid a system of weak regulations and to ensure that better regulations are created to restore public trust in politics. The 'Diversion Guide' can be used to this end. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Hamad bin Khalifa University.

An Institutional Diversion Framework

Lobbying, Democracy and Public Trust

Since the invasion of Ukraine and ban on foreign reporters, Russia seems to have sunk into an even deeper shadow than in the darkest times of the Soviet Union. Only by presenting himself as an historian was Italian journalist Marzio G. Mian able to penetrate the Russian heartland, leading to his groundbreaking cover story for Harpers' Magazine, "Behind the New Iron Curtain."In Volga Blues, Russian history and literature inform every step of Mian's revealing and perilous journey along Russia's most culturally significant river, the fulcrum of its history, "the mother." Along with Alessandro Cosmelli, his photographer; Vlad, their translator and fixer; and Katya, Vlad's girlfriend, Mian manages to gather firsthand accounts from ordinary Russians. They discuss not only the impact of the war, Western sanctions, and their country's isolation, but how Russian culture has changed as a result. Stalin is back in favor, Lenin has been downgraded as a "Europeanized intellectual." Newly sophisticated local and seasonal cuisine is all the rage. People cite centuries-old grievances to explain their fear of Western invasion, as they claim a willingness to accept nuclear apocalypse to save Russian pride. Talking with contemporary Russian intellectuals, entrepreneurs, priests, widows, mercenaries, and pacifists, Mian discovers how little the West knows about Russia and Russians. Deeply distrustful of democracy, yearning for the ideological and spiritual purity of the Orthodox Church, betrayed by and fearful of the West, and reassured by the brutal, fragile, ancient dream of an imperial civilization, they make clear that the Cold War has not yet ended.In visceral prose, Mian takes us across the floodplains where the Russian Orthodox faith first took root, where the Soviet empire asserted itself, and where the neo-imperial project of Vladimir Putin's post-Soviet autocracy is currently being consolidated. The result is a harrowing, haunting vision of today's great clash of civilizations-between Russia and the West-including a United States that at times seems uncannily similar.

Volga Blues

Schriftenreihe der Vierteljahrshefte für Zeitgeschichte

Mitte der 1970er Jahre waren Migrant*innen ein fester Bestandteil der westdeutschen Gesellschaft. Gleichwohl waren deren politische Partizipationsmöglichkeiten hart umstritten. Politik und Gesellschaft rangen um die Frage, ob die Bundesrepublik ein Einwanderungsland sei. In den Auseinandersetzungen um die Integration und Partizipation von Migrant*innen übernahm München eine Pionierrolle. Als eine der ersten verabschiedete die Stadt 1974 ein "Ausländerprogramm" und richtete einen Ausländerbeirat ein, der die Interessen migrantischer Einwohner*innen und ihre Forderung nach sozialer und politischer Teilhabe vertreten sollte. An der Schnittstelle zwischen Migrations- und Stadtgeschichte zeigt Grazia Prontera die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen dieses Gremiums in den mühsamen Aushandlungsprozessen zwischen Bund, Land und Kommune, die von programmatischen Innovationen ebenso geprägt waren wie von bürokratischen Zuständigkeitsfragen und parteitaktischen Erwägungen.

Stadt, Migration und politische Partizipation

In der Türkei tobt ein Gesellschaftskampf, der sich auch auf die in Deutschland lebenden Türkeistämmigen auswirkt. Tiefe Gräben trennen die verschiedenen Gesellschaftsgruppen voneinander: nationalistische Kemalisten, die einstige AKP-Basis der Partei Erdogans, Feministinnen, Kurden, Aleviten, Juden, Griechen, Armenier. Sie alle haben sich ihre eigenen, nebeneinander existierenden Realitäten geschaffen, leben in eigenen Stadtvierteln, schicken ihre Kinder auf unterschiedliche Schulen. Gleichzeitig gibt es Menschen, die diesen Kampf leid sind. Menschen, die ihre pluralistische Gesellschaft zum Strahlen bringen möchten, die das staatliche, von oben diktierte Geschichtsnarrativ ablehnen und an eine auf Solidarität aufbauende Gesellschaftsordnung glauben. Ihnen schenkt dieses Buch Gehör.

How Coca-Cola makes Americans sick—and makes sure we don’t know it. If we knew that Coca-Cola was among the deadliest products in our diet, would we continue drinking it in such great quantities? The Coca-Cola Company has gone to extraordinary lengths to make sure we don’t find out, as this damning exposé makes patently clear. Marshaling the findings of extensive research and deep investigative reporting, Murray Carpenter describes in Sweet and Deadly the damage Coke does to America’s health—and the remarkable campaign of disinformation conducted by the company to keep consumers in the dark.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An explosive, deeply reported exposé of Johnson &amp; Johnson, one of America’s oldest and most trusted pharmaceutical companies—from an award-winning investigative journalist “A damning portrait.”—Associated Press “A page-turning drama that raises life-or-death questions about the world’s largest healthcare conglomerate.”—Jonathan Eig, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of King: A Life FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD AND THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE • A CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY AND NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR One day in 2004, Gardiner Harris, a pharmaceutical reporter for The New York Times, was early for a flight and sat down at an airport bar. He struck up a conversation with the woman on the barstool next to him, who happened to be a drug sales rep for Johnson &amp; Johnson. Her horrific story about unethical sales practices and the devastating impact they’d had on her family fundamentally changed the nature of how Harris would cover the company—and the entire pharmaceutical industry—for the Times. His subsequent investigations and ongoing research since that very first conversation led to this book—a blistering exposé of a trusted American institution and the largest healthcare conglomerate in the world. Harris takes us light-years away from the company’s image as the child-friendly “baby company” as he uncovers reams of evidence showing decades of deceitful and dangerous corporate practices that have threatened the lives of millions. He covers multiple disasters: lies and cover-ups regarding the link of Johnson’s Baby Powder to cancer, the surprising dangers of Tylenol, a criminal campaign to sell antipsychotics that have cost countless lives, a popular drug used to support cancer patients that actually increases the risk that cancer tumors will grow, and deceptive marketing that accelerated opioid addictions through their product Duragesic (fentanyl) that rival even those of the Sacklers and Purdue Pharma. Filled with shocking and infuriating but utterly necessary revelations, No More Tears is a landmark work of investigative journalism that lays bare the deeply rooted corruption behind the image of babies bathing with a smile.

Regensburger Beiträge zur Digitalisierung des Gesundheitswesens

Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung bringt die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Pflege, Kultur und Gesellschaft durcheinander. Die Beiträger*innen zeigen, dass in der Pflege ein Kulturwandel in vollem Gange ist, der die Entwicklung einer kultursensiblen Pflege erfordert. Neben den Auswirkungen&nbsp;der neuen Technologien beleuchten sie auch die Themen Migration und&nbsp;darauf aufbauende Machtstrukturen und bieten so eine umfassende, interdisziplinäre Einführung in die modernen Herausforderungen der Pflege, die nicht nur für Wissenschaftler*innen interessant ist, sondern auch praxisbezogene Fragen aufgreift.&nbsp;
