An exploration of night - the nocturnal world, insomnia, the creative potential of the dark hours, the work that happens at night to keep the modern world moving - by Sunday Times bestselling author Dan Richards

Richards D: Overnight / B

Overnight

Journeys, Conversations and Stories After Dark

Organizational Crime

This timely study offers a concise, yet thorough, introduction to the illicit arms trade. The main theme of the book confronts the complex reality, that while it is proper to think of two separate trades in arms--legal and illegal--in practice there is a considerable overlap between the two. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Phythian argues that the lessons of the most important and extensive cases of the last 20 years suggest that a significant element of the illicit trade in arms has in fact been sanctioned at some level of government in the pursuit of broader security or geopolitical ends.

Offering a concise, yet thorough, introduction to the illicit arms trade, the main theme of this significant volume confronts the complex reality that while it is proper to think of two separate trades in arms, legal and illegal, in practice there is a considerable overlap between the two. Although this overlap is sometimes distinguished by referring to 'black' (wholly illegal) and 'grey' (semi-legal) markets, this book situates all of these transactions along a continuum under the banner of the 'illicit arms trade'. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Mark Phythian argues that the lessons of the most important and extensive cases of the last fifteen to twenty years suggest that a significant element of the illicit trade in arms has in fact been sanctioned at some level of government, in the pursuit of broader security or geopolitical ends.

'The law of libel is the instrument of censorship by which dignity-too often pseudo-dignity-is to be upheld.' That is Michael Rubinstein's definition in his introduction to this lively and authoritative account Wicked, Wicked Libels (originally published in 1972) of the libel situation in Britain.The contributors are all actively concerned about libel as a living issue. Michael Rubinstein writes first about 'the popular appetite for scandal', and the other contributors view libel from various angles. H. Montgomery Hyde looks at the law of libel itself, Louis Blom-Cooper writes about the conflicts between freer speech and privacy, and Anthony Lincoln discusses the problems facing legal advisers to the press. William Kimber, Richard Ingrams and Cecil H. King look at the subject from the publisher's point of view. Eugene Gros writes as a successful plaintiff, Louis A. Abraham looks at defamation as contempt of Parliament, and Michael Rubinstein contributes a chapter on book publishing and the law of libel. There are also two important appendices of particular interest: one an account by Harold Laski of a day in court, and the other a Press comment on the PQ 17 case after the hearing in the Court of Appeal.

Ein emotionales und wichtiges BuchConny Böttger widmet ihr Leben der Tierrettung. Ihr Engagement nahm seine Anfänge, als ihr Großvater seinen Bauernhof schließen und seine letzte Kuh zum Schlachthof bringen wollte. Diese letzte Kuh markiert den Beginn einer sehr schönen und fast unglaublichen Geschichte.Neben ihrem Vollzeitberuf hat Conny mit ihren Unterstützer:innen in den letzten Jahren über 100 Rinder auf das Gut im Erzgebirge geholt, auf dem sie die Tiere unterstellen darf. Sie ist bei jeder Rettungsaktion persönlich dabei, kennt jede Kuh einzeln und weiß um ihre Gefühle und Bedürfnisse. Für Conny sind die Tiere nicht bloß Kühe, sie sind Lebewesen, deren Bedürfnisse über die Maßen schützenswert sind. Und das geht ins Herz.

The Radical Imagination

Since its initial 2011 publication, Theory from the South has stimulated a new field of inquiry from leading scholars, while world developments have escalated and supported its original thesis of how "Euroamerica has evolved toward Africa." Not least of these is the many resemblances of the Trump presidency to that of Jacob Zuma, transformations in the nature of many of the world's Northern democracies, the rise of populist politics, the intensifying hold of private capital over functions of the state, sharpening inequalities, and the transformation of labor. In a new chapter for this expanded edition, the Comaroffs extend their theorizing around and beyond these new developments. Critique and discussion by several prominent commentators round out this new edition: Achille Mbembe, James Ferguson, Ato Quayson, Srinivas Aravamudan, and Juan Obarrio.

This book is concerned with the practical, ethical and political realities of critical research around state punishment. By definition, critical research is a dynamic and political process which recognizes the broad structural contexts within which human action takes place. Critical researchers argue for a more dynamic and reflexive approach to research, and have duties to expose oppressive structures and practices, make audible voices that are habitually silenced, and empower and emancipate marginalized groups and individuals. Based on a series of interviews conducted with researchers within and outside of academia, this book aims to capture the personal challenges, ethical dilemmas, practical obstacles, positive rewards and (potential or actual) harmful effects of undertaking critical research concerned with state punishment. It will also explore the different mediums used to disseminate research findings and how such findings are received by peers, the public and the state.Researching Punishment is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of criminology, media, sociology, journalism, film studies, and cultural studies.

Researching Punishment

This volume tackles the pressing issue of online violence against academics, considering the diverse forms that cyberbullying and harassment can take, as well as their likely targets. Offering both theorizations of the phenomenon and a series of empirical case studies, it maps out possible countermeasures for creating a more resilient academic environment.The collection not only identifies the types of attacks and likely targets but also offers practical, evidence-based countermeasures to mitigate online violence. It fills a crucial gap in scholarship by exploring the intersections of online violence, gender, and minority experiences within the academic realm. Its unique contribution lies in its synthesis of empirical research, personal narratives, and practical recommendations, providing readers with a holistic understanding of the issue and moving beyond mere documentation to actively engage with the pressing question of how academia can foster a more inclusive and resilient environment.It will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in the sociology of work, scholarly careers, the challenges facing social researchers and issues of academic freedom.
