Les représentations culturelles du droit de l'alcool Volume 3 La consommation

Why do organizations keep causing harm? And how do we cure toxic cultures? "A timely, rigorous, and deeply unsettling book."—Amy C. Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School, and author of The Fearless Organization Not a week goes by with out yet another major organizational scandal: Open AI’s agents going rogue, Volkswagen’s emissions cheating, Boeing’s persistent safety issues, endemic police misconduct at the Oakland PD, and sexual abuse at yet another Roman Catholic Church. So why do do organizations keep causing these harms? Benjamin van Rooij and Nicholas Lord argue that to truly understand and address the impacts of dysfunctional organizations we must look beyond leadership and understand the deeper problems in the organization itself. To do so, Toxic uses dozens of in-depth case studies to connect the dots between various scandals and illustrate the deeper toxic patterns within organizations that lead to them. Each chapter recounts compelling stories of individuals caught within these toxic systems and addresses urgent societal challenges such as environmental degradation, the opioid epidemic, the harms of social media, and police abuse. Stories include:<ul><li>Facebook sought to grow from 1 billion to 5 billion users, leading it to enter Myanmar’s volatile ethnic context without having the knowledge or capacity to do proper content moderation, and thus contributing to genocide.</li><li>Don Parus, a BP engineer made an all-out effort to warn company leaders to invest in safety, just months before a major explosion killed fiteen and injured hundreds at its Texas City Refinery.</li><li>Keith Batt, a rookie at the Oakland Police Department, was made to witness, condone and participate in falsifying arrest records, planting evidence, and even in unsanctioned violence, all within two weeks on the job.</li></ul>Revealing, accessible, engaging, and unsettling, Toxic breaks down the core characteristics of toxic organizations and shows readers how to recognize and address toxicity in their everyday lives.

How Organizations Go Bad

Toxic

Carcosa

Ein Raumschiff strandet auf einem fernen Planeten, buchstäblich am Ende des Universums. Die kleine Gruppe von Frauen und Männern findet sich in einer lebensfeindlichen Einöde wieder und muss versuchen, auch nur die ersten Tage gemeinsam zu überstehen. Als die Männer stattdessen hochfliegende Pläne schmieden, wie diese Welt zu 'kolonisieren' sei, kommt es zur Katastrophe ... 
Mit ihrem erstmals 1976 erschienenen Roman "Wir, die wir sehr bald ..." verfasste Joanna Russ die definitive Antithese zu den Werken ihrer männlichen Kollegen: Hier tragen keine strahlenden Helden die Zivilisation in die Weiten des Weltraums hinaus. Hier stellt sich eine Frau den existenziellen Fragen des Daseins. Bis zur letzten Konsequenz. // Der abschließende Band unserer Russ-Werkausgabe enthält außerdem zwei längere Erzählungen, eine Folge repräsentativer Buchkritiken und einen Essay aus der dritten Schaffensphase der Autorin.

Maria the Wanted

Why we crave enjoyment from news, how our news use divides us, and what we can do to create better news and more informed citizens. TikTok. Short-form reels. Late-night TV monologues. Podcasts. The way news is delivered has changed dramatically and so has the way we consume it. Now, we no longer look to the news just to learn and be informed; we expect enjoyment as well. In Enjoyment Is Breaking News, Jennifer Hoewe explains how and why this shift toward news enjoyment occurred and what we can do to address the information crisis we now face. Evidence shows that enjoyment-driven decisions are leaving us less informed—despite what we might expect—because they lead us to ignore other news that matters. This book explains why we don’t always select the best sources of news, how we respond to the news sources we do select, and how that information impacts our political knowledge and decisions. The author also offers solutions for how to improve news creation and news use moving forward. Specifically, she shows how news consumers can escape their “self-righteous” consumption cycles; how news and social media companies can play a role in curbing our automatic amplification of enjoyable news; and how we can all do better when it comes to the information we seek and share.

How We Became Less Informed and More Divided (and How to Fix It)

Enjoyment Is Breaking News

Vom verschneiten Erzgebirge reist Jungkommunistin Kira für mehrere Monate ins sonnige Kuba. Zurück lässt sie ihren zynischen Exfreund Ben und dessen lebensmüden Vater, einen Räuchermännchenmacher. Aus der Entfernung formt sich zögernd ein Zwiegespräch. Als Ben, der sich als Youtuber und Hate­fluencer in der Aufmerksamkeitsökonomie verdingt, seine Greiffener Adresse preisgibt, bricht in das dauerweihnacht­liche Spielzeugdorf die Welt garstig ein. 

Während das alles erklärende Buch über Ostdeutschland wieder und wieder geschrieben wird, ist 'Kleiner als drei' ein intimer Feldpostbriefroman aus dem Systemkampf zwischen Real­sozialismus und -kapitalismus. Ein Dialog am Rande, von teilnehmender Bolschewistin zu giftigem Memefaschisten. Wie schon in seinem Debüt 'Ich glaube jetzt, dass das die Lösung ist' entwickelt Ken Merten auch in seinem neuen Roman einen unverwechselbaren, treibenden Sound.

Kleiner als drei

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Three lives, one hundred years, one ghost town: an explosive novel about a mysterious place called Sunrise, where the secrets of the past refuse to stay buried, from the award-winning author of The Tiger’s Wife “Masterful . . . [Obreht] delightfully mashes up several genres, including Western gothic, murder mystery and survival saga.”—The New York Times Book Review “I’ve loved every book Téa Obreht has written but I might love this one the most. Please put this book into the hands of everyone you know.”—Liz Moore, author of The God of the Woods In 2024, Nina’s small-engine plane crashes into a lake in the Wyoming mountains. Her boyfriend Ben, who was flying it, is nowhere to be found. Lost and freezing on the shore, Nina is armed with only a few old protein bars, a phone with no service, and a vague hope of rescue. It is up to her to survive in the vast wilderness. But then she stumbles upon Sunrise—a town of the Old West that is strangely well maintained, but seemingly abandoned. A place that holds the missing link to a ghost story one hundred years in the making. In 2003, local golden boy Coll is putting the finishing touches on the town’s annual historical reenactment. But when an upstart would-be author comes to him with questions about one of Sunrise’s most beloved figures, it threatens to upend everything he thought he knew about the city—and himself. In 1902, town founder, gunslinger, and legendary pulp hero Anton Vargas returns to Sunrise and quickly takes charge of a group searching for a missing boy. But who really is Vargas? What does he know about the boy’s disappearance? And why has he returned after such a long absence? These three strangers are separated by time and circumstance. But Sunrise’s many secrets are like gunpowder: quiet, contained, until they encounter a spark. Magisterial and suspenseful, Téa Obreht’s novel challenges the myths we think we know: of heroes and villains, of the people and places to which we lay claim, and, most of all, of our own lives.

A Novel

Sunrise

Eine Mythenerzählung von Kontrollverlust und ungeahnter Verbundenheit in den surrealen Kulissen des globalisierten Kapitalismus.

Zwei junge Menschen, zwei Leben für die Kunst: Malik in Köln, Jenny in Chongqing. Während ihre Lebensentwürfe unter ökonomischem Druck ins Wanken geraten, beginnen die Stalaktiten über ihren Betten auf sich aufmerksam zu machen - sie tropfen, sie wachsen, und sie verschwinden nicht wieder.

Ein Roman über Leben im Ungleichgewicht, globale Verflechtungen und die Frage, was geschieht, wenn die Realität selbst instabil wird.

Stalaktiten

Universum

Klaus-Gerd Bromsen, Anfang fünfzig und seines Zeichens Hauptkommissar und Leiter der Dortmunder Mordkommission, ist alles andere als sportlich. Das Herz am richtigen Fleck, begleiten ihn jedoch Nikotin, Alkohol und langwierige Scheidungsformalitäten durch den zumeist tristen Alltag. Mehr als vierhundert Kilometer entfernt von seiner Heimat, den Plöner Seen, gestaltet sich auch das Verhältnis zu seinem Sohn Marcel, der bei seiner Tante in Bremen lebt, als äußerst schwierig. Überraschen oder gar aus der Ruhe bringen kann Bromsen daher so schnell nichts mehr.
Der Fund eines zerstückelten Mädchens am Hengsener Stausee und nur kurze Zeit später die Hinrichtung eines jungen Bulgaren in der Dortmunder Nordstadt gehen jedoch auch ihm an die Nieren. Die Ermittlungen geraten schnell ins Stocken und erst die anonyme Zustellung einer Zeitungsseite der WAZ aus November 1998 lässt sie wieder Fahrt aufnehmen. Zwei Tote aus den Chefetagen zweier Unternehmen des internationalen Großanlagenbaus führen ihn schlussendlich auf den richtigen Weg, der jedoch weit zurück in längst vergangene Zeiten führt, aber auch in der Gegenwart weiterhin seine Opfer fordert.
Wer besitzt ein Interesse daran, dass die Vergangenheit aufgearbeitet wird?
Was für Auswirkungen haben mehrere Jahrzehnte zurückliegende Ereignisse auf Kuba und in der Türkei und welche Rolle spielt schlussendlich ein unbescholtener Bürger bei den jetzigen Ermittlungen?
Bromsen und sein Team geraten zunehmend ins Schwitzen und auch die Kollegen aus den angrenzenden Ruhrgebietsstädten werden mehr und mehr mit eingebunden.

DAMALS WAR KEIN TAG, ALS DIESONNE IM MEER VERSANK PART 1

A young girl clings fiercely to the damaged love of her mother—a taciturn farmworker cast out by her family and scorned by her village—in this devastating and lyrically rendered novel from a French-Italian maverick. Marie lives with her mother, Genie, in a ramshackle house by a willow-lined river in rural France. Every morning, Genie walks to the neighboring farms to do what work there is to be done. When farmers and villagers greet her, she says nothing, and keeps walking. Once, she was a lighthearted girl from the best family in the valley; now they all call her “Crazy Genie.” While her mother works, Marie waits, yearning for her mother to notice her, longing for the moment when they will be back in their lonely house by the river. Told in Marie’s ingenuous, straightforward voice, Crazy Genie is the second novel by Inès Cagnati, who grew up in poverty in rural France in the 1940s, the child of Italian immigrant agricultural workers. Rich in observation and detail, and devastating in its portrayal of a child’s unconditional love and of society’s callous prejudices, Crazy Genie, together with her first novel, Free Day, confirms Cagnati's astonishing power as a writer.

Crazy Genie

Die Liebe von Nelly und Igor beginnt, ohne dass er von ihren geheimen Angriffen auf einen einflussreichen Großkonzern ahnt, der ihre Stadt bedroht. Sich von dem übermächtigen Feind immer wieder zu neuen Aktionen provoziert fühlend, begibt sie sich in wachsende Gefahren.

Frau mit Bombe

Una noche de celebración, entre risas y brindis, se quiebra abruptamente cuando un vecino, Brandon, irrumpe en la fiesta. Su mirada desquiciada y sus balbuceos sobre una "Sombra Roja" que lo persigue y amenaza con aniquilar a quienes intenten ayudarlo, transforman la alegría en un pavor helado.
¿Es la Sombra Roja el delirio de una mente atormentada por la esquizofrenia, o una entidad malevolente que ha encontrado en Brandon su puerta de entrada a nuestra realidad? A medida que la presencia de esta sombra se vuelve más palpable y sus advertencias se tiñen de una verdad escalofriante, la línea entre la cordura y lo sobrenatural se desdibuja peligrosamente.
La Sombra Roja es una inmersión perturbadora en los abismos de la psique y lo desconocido. Una historia donde el miedo no solo acecha en la oscuridad, sino que se enraíza en la propia percepción, arrastrando al lector a un misterio que desafía toda lógica y promete una verdad tan incomprensible como aterradora. Prepárate para un viaje sin retorno, donde la única certeza es que, una vez que la veas, nada volverá a ser igual.
 
Pablo E. Espenet nacido en Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina, en 1989. Desde sus primeros recuerdos conscientes, siempre amó el género de terror, acompañado del suspenso, el drama y aquellas historias oscuras que invitan a la reflexión profunda y, con algo de fortuna, al cambio real. De nacionalidad argentino-italiana, y gracias a la invaluable ayuda de Jamie que lo apoyó desde el comienzo y forma parte de su familia verdadera, no la biológica, emprendió su viaje por Europa con su marido hace casi dos años, comenzando por Grecia. Tras recorrer varios países y absorber mucho de diversas culturas, viven actualmente en Madrid, España. Escribió este libro en 2015, hace diez años, y, tras tanto tiempo guardado, por fin verá la luz. Después de una época muy dura de su vida, que se prolongó por muchos años, esta historia llegó a él de forma natural, inspirada tanto por cuestiones personales de su contexto en aquel momento como por situaciones, personas y vivencias del pasado. Toda esa mixtura llevó a La Sombra Roja a materializarse y ser. Con una pasión intensa por la escritura, los idiomas, el cine, las distintas culturas y la investigación, y gracias a haber crecido rodeado de diversas tradiciones, como sus bisabuelos, que provenían de distintos países europeos, puede crear historias con trasfondos profundos. Una de sus principales intenciones es abrir las mentes de las personas y aportar un poco más de luz a un mundo sumido en la oscuridad.

LA SOMBRA ROJA

Sparks fly as two former college rivals are forced together for a new D&amp;D campaign—clashing both in and out of the game—in this fusion of contemporary second-chance romance and fantasy from the author of Roll for Romance. “Level Up for Love has all the fun of Roll for Romance while feeling like entirely its own thing. The interweaving of the D&amp;D campaign with the main love story makes for a thoroughly entertaining read.”—M. Stevenson, author of Behooved In college, Reagan Riley and Wesley Locke were constantly at each other’s throats, competing to be the best in their video game design program—until Wesley ghosts her after their unexpected hookup, severing their ties for good. Six years later, Reagan has set aside her game design dreams, opting instead to stay close to her family in Connecticut and channel her creative energy into D&amp;D. When her longstanding group falls apart, she and her sister join their local game store's new advanced campaign—only to find the demanding Dungeon Master at the helm is none other than Wesley. In the game, he is Vadrien, a merciless, power-hungry vampire lord, and Reagan is Sindra, the sword-wielding lady knight who will stop at nothing to cut him down. When a game design opportunity opens up in the real world, Reagan and Wesley find themselves doubly pitted against each other. But as their buried spark reignites and Reagan starts to question why Wesley left all those years ago, can they find a way to play nice—and are they playing for more than just to win?
