Contextos y responsabilidades políticas y sociales (1998-2019 y más…)

This book explores how COVID-19 represents an inflection point for re-thinking and re-making democracy across the English-speaking world in an age where states are facing a future of overlapping crises. Years after the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic started to unfold, have we yet learned the deep lessons essential to maintaining and improving democracy to meet crisis challenges? Produced with the benefit of distance from the most acute period of the pandemic, the book contextualises the COVID-19 crisis as revealing pre-existing vulnerabilities and intensifying challenges of governance, inclusion, and distrust, while also spurring democratic innovation and shifting the parameters for reform. Six national case studies - Australia, Ireland, Canada, Aotearoa New Zealand, UK and USA - reveal the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Viewed in the round, pandemic responses ranged from the chaotic to the internationally lauded, although even the latter have featured acute deficiencies in democratic practice, which underscores the need to gather the lessons learned. Yet, in all states, the public and political temptation to simply move on, in an act of communal forgetting and collective return to "normalcy," presents a real risk of failing to prepare for more democratic future crisis responses. This collection takes the long view, approaching its subject from multiple perspectives that examine the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach and bringing together both leading and emerging experts on democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law, this book powerfully combines the insights of retrospective analysis with future-focused contemplation of where our democracies are heading.

Welche gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen hatte die Covid-19-Pandemie? Die Beiträger*innen aus Gesundheits-, Politik- und Medienwissenschaft sowie Soziologie und Pädagogik betrachten die Ausnahmesituation aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive und zeichnen ein facettenreiches Bild. Covid-19 erweist sich dabei nicht nur als Katalysator bestehender Krisendynamiken, sondern auch als Beleg für die Multidimensionalität gesellschaftlicher Krisen. Besonders im Fokus steht die krisenhafte Nähe heterogener Gesellschaftsbereiche, die einen fundierten Einblick in die Transversalität und Interdependenz zeitgenössischer Krisen zulässt - auch über den akademischen Tellerrand hinaus.

Modern Studies in European Law

This book explores discretionary decision-making in migration systems in Europe. It investigates how European law influences the existence, exercise and effects of discretion.

Firstly, it argues that national lawmakers often regard discretionary decision-making as the most viable option to accommodate standards of European law in their national migration systems. Secondly, the book shows how the exercise of this power has changed from an area of free choice to an instance of legally instructed decision-making. Ultimately, it illustrates how both the proliferation and transformation of discretionary decision-making have improved the legal position of migrants in the European Union, providing a compelling interpretation of a key field of EU law.

Dandelion is Dead

'Allende is a master storyteller at the peak of her powers' Los Angeles Times It is 1538 in Spain, and Inés' shiftless husband left her years ago. He had travelled to Chile to be a part of the new colonies; he didn't expect that Inés would be bold enough to follow him. Determined to leave her stifling homeland behind, Inés sets out on a journey to the New World. Soon after arriving on the shores of this new land, she discovers that her husband has, once again, slipped out of reach. But before long she meets Pedro de Valdivia - war hero and field marshal to conquistador Francisco Pizarro - and finds a love that not only changes her life, but also the course of history. Based on historical events, Inés of My Soul is an epic tale of how one woman's determination and passion shaped the future of a country.

Inés of My Soul

A provocative analysis of the deadly Cold War conflicts that devastated countries and communities far from Moscow and Washington 
 
Transforming battlegrounds in Africa, Asia, and Latin America into veritable hellscapes, the surrogate wars of the Cold War era left behind a legacy of collective trauma and social conflict that have persisted into the present. In this ambitious work, Alfred W. McCoy uses a bottom-up, outside-in approach to offer an unexpected new perspective on the longest, most consequential conflict in modern history. 
 
McCoy renders an intimate portrait of both embattled covert operatives and committed antiwar protesters, thus humanizing the history of the Cold War-a history that has too often been told in impersonal terms of economic growth, nuclear arsenals, or diplomatic ententes. 
 
As today's great powers devote humanity's scarce resources toward ratcheting up a "new cold war" in the face of a worsening climate crisis, McCoy's history is an important reminder that otherwise- ordinary individuals once helped end a global conflict that threatened nuclear holocaust.

A Global History of Empire and Espionage

Cold War on Five Continents

What if the next global crisis is already here—and we’re still tackling it with yesterday’s tools? This book confronts this question head-on, offering a bold, multidimensional rethinking of how humanity can navigate overlapping emergencies—pandemics, climate collapse, deepening inequality—without sacrificing sovereignty or dignity. Drawing on original contributions from leading scholars and activists across five continents, this book delivers an in-depth, comparative analysis of real-world legal, political, and community responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and the worsening global crisis. The chapters trace how crises magnify structural vulnerabilities, expose failures in governance, and simultaneously reveal unexpected spaces for resistance and innovation—from Indigenous legal activism in Brazil and civic water-protection initiatives in India and Costa Rica, to evolving greenhouse-gas regulation in the United States and Brazil, and the still-unrealised potential of cooperation within the BRICS countries. The approach used is deliberately multidimensional: no single discipline’s or nation-state’s perspective dominates. Instead, the authors weave together legal theory, political philosophy, environmental justice, and on-the-ground empirical insights to challenge unidimensional thinking and propose practical pathways toward coordinated pluralism. Particular attention is given to the tension between sovereignty and shared responsibility, the relational nature of dignity in times of triage and scarcity, and the urgent need for multiscalar governance that learns across borders rather than replicating national silos. This book will be of considerable interest to researchers and scholars of international law, climate justice, human rights, global governance, and political theory—and to activists, policymakers, and practitioners seeking intellectually rigorous yet actionable responses to the polycrisis we already find ourselves in. Perspectives on Crises does not offer easy answers. Rather, it equips readers with more precise questions—and more honest tools—to help them face what comes next.

A Multidimensional Approach to Law and Politics

Perspectives on Crises

Part life philosophy, part financial clarity, and part real-world wisdom from a hugely popular estate planning attorney who has seen what happens when families plan and when they don't. I'm Sorry I'm Dead helps readers confront the reality of life's end, not in a morbid way, but in a deeply empowering one. Estate planning attorney, entrepreneur, and best-selling author Pamela Maass Garrett aka Law Mother has helped thousands of families navigate what happens when someone dies. She has seen firsthand that the biggest problems families face are rarely legal: they are emotional, relational, and the result of decisions never made . . . siblings that stop speaking over a dispute about their parent's home, a grieving widow locked out of bank accounts because she didn't know how to get access, and families forced to guess about critical medical decisions. All of these problems can be easily avoided. In this book, Garrett introduces a powerful mindset shift: when you face the end of life honestly, you begin living more intentionally today. Through compelling stories from real families, practical financial insights, and simple decision-making frameworks, readers learn how to take control of their lives before circumstances take control of them. The book guides readers through the most important life decisions most people avoid: · how to organize finances and build real wealth · how to protect loved ones legally and emotionally · how to make difficult family decisions before crisis strikes · how to prevent conflict, confusion, and regret after death · how to create a legacy that strengthens future generations rather than unintentionally burdening them with a huge tax bill · what you really can and can't do Rather than overwhelming readers with technical legal details, I'm Sorry I'm Dead offers a clear philosophy and practical tools for making the decisions that matter most. The result is a life lived with greater clarity, stronger relationships, and the peace of knowing the people you love will be protected. This book is for anyone who wants to stop drifting through life and start deciding it.

'Fascinating ... Should be required reading everywhere' STEPHEN FRY 'An important book ... Both hopeful and practical' YUVAL NOAH HARARI Trust: like water, like electricity, our society can't function without it. It's a treasure, a living thing that can be cultivated and grown. But it can also wither and die, and it is increasingly under threat. From neighbourhoods to nations, we must get serious about trust and act before this precious resource runs out entirely. When Jimmy Wales founded Wikipedia more than two decades ago, he changed the landscape of knowledge forever - although almost no one realised it at the time. Today, people view Wikipedia 11 billion times every month in the English language alone. But in our 'post-truth' era, where the internet is a sea of disinformation and facts are increasingly malleable, Wales reminds us that it's more important than ever to return to the problem at the heart of it all: that without trust, we have no knowledge. And without knowledge, we can't fight back. Derived from decades of observation, participation and discussion with leaders across the world, these are his clear, actionable rules for building trust in business, leadership and life. The Seven Rules of Trust reveals the fundamental principles that transformed a website which was once regarded as a highly dubious source of information to a universally trusted source for facts. This book will help you become a trust-maker. To build deeper connections with others so you can be a better neighbour, a more understanding friend, even someone who can turn back the tide and inspire others to follow you. If you want to strengthen your relationships or simply bring more happiness and fulfilment into your life, then this is where to start. *** 'Where trust has been lost, Jimmy Wales offers routes to its rediscovery' ALASTAIR CAMPBELL 'Thank you to Jimmy Wales for founding Wikipedia and now, for the first time, telling us how he did it!' SIMON SINEK 'A powerful, essential book that cuts to the heart of how technology can benefit humanity' REID HOFFMAN

Mastering the Art of Connection and Influence

The Seven Rules

Human Rights Law in Perspective

What is the reality of what it is to participate in associations, such as sports clubs, charities, trade unions, or political parties? This book explores the complexities surrounding the right of association from a legal and philosophical perspective.

Legal chapters explore how the right is protected in jurisdictions as diverse as Chile, Germany, Indonesia, Kenya, Slovenia, Türkiye and the United Kingdom, alongside thematic chapters on judicial review, associational schism and the lived experience of associational participation. Philosophical chapters employ social ontology to illuminate the nature of group interaction and the reality of associational life.


Offering the first interdisciplinary examination of freedom of association, this collection contributes significantly to our understanding of this fundamental right.
