A new translation of Tolstoy's shockingly immersive, formally inventive and masterfully ironic account of life under siege during the Crimean War

Tolstoy L: Sevastopol Tales / B

Sevastopol Tales

One of the great works of fiction to emerge from World War I, featuring an introduction by Booker Prize winner Julian Barnes A Penguin Classic Consisting of four novels—Some Do Not . . ., No More Parades, A Man Could Stand Up,&nbsp;and The Last Post—Parade's End is the story of Christopher Tietjens and his journey from the secure world of Edwardian England into World War I and beyond. Both a portrait of a love triangle—among Tietjens; his beautiful and reckless wife, Sylvia; and the suffragette Valentine—and a depiction of life on the Western Front, Parade's End is one of the greatest fictional works of the twentieth century. Ranging from the drawing rooms of England to the trenches of France and moving between past and present, it is a haunting exploration of identity, loss, and memory.

Parade's End

Russland, China, USA, NATO – wie geht es weiter in der Welt?Die Zukunft erscheint offener, furchteinflößender als vor wenigen Jahren. Wie sie aussieht, hängt nicht nur von Russland und den USA ab, sondern von einer großen Anzahl von Akteuren. Wir bekommen so das Gefühl zurück, dass auch wir eine Rolle in unserer eigenen Zukunft spielen, indem wir uns bewusst machen, was wir tatsächlich wissen, was wir nicht wissen und durch Annahmen ersetzt haben, und vor allem, welche Handlungsoptionen es gibt.Florence Gaub lädt dazu ein, selbst außenpolitische Entscheidungen zu treffen: Anstatt nur Zuschauer mehr oder weniger plausibler Szenarien zu sein, folgt man unterschiedlichen Entscheidungspfaden. Das Buch vermittelt Einblicke in mögliche Entscheidungsprozesse und ein Gefühl der Selbstbestimmung.So wird Außenpolitik konkret und anschaulich: Krisenherde, Handlungsmöglichkeiten, Folgen

Die Zukunft steht auf dem Spiel | Ein interaktives Buch: Welche Gefahren bedrohen Frieden und Freiheit? | Nominiert für den Deutschen Sachbuchpreis 2026

Szenario

Nestor Machno war zehn Monate alt, als sein Vater starb. Aufgrund der Armut seiner Familie konnte er nur in den Wintermonaten die Schule besuchen, während er in den Sommermonaten bei benachbarten Gutsherren im heute ukrainischen Oblast Saporischschja als Schafhirte arbeitete. Durch die seit der Russischen Revolution von 1905 härter gewordenen Repressionen des Zarenreichs wandte er sich, inspiriert von revolutionären Gruppen, dem Anarchismus und den Ideen Bakunins und Kropotkins zu. 1906, im Alter von achtzehn Jahren, wurde er erstmals verhaftet, 1910 ein weiteres Mal und zum Tode verurteilt, aber dann zu lebenslanger Haft begnadigt. 1917 gelang ihm die Flucht, ein Jahr darauf wurde die Ukraine durch den Frieden von Brest-Litowsk politisch und ökonomisch von Sowjetrussland getrennt. Wassili Golowanow schildert mitreißend vor dem Hintergrund der Wirren der Geschichte die kaum zu fassende Biografie Machnos bis zu seinem Tod im Pariser Exil und erzählt dessen kometenhaften Aufstieg zum Anführer einer kompromisslosen, nach ihm benannten Freiheitsbewegung, die eine anarchistische Ukraine verwirklichen wollte.

Studies in International Law

This book offers a foundational rethinking of how international law engages with non-state effective territorial entities - territories that, while legally part of a recognised state, are de facto governed by non-state actors or other states. These entities - ranging from ISIL-controlled areas in Syria to the contested territory of Crimea, the autonomous Somaliland, and Taiwan - occupy an increasingly prominent place in global politics, yet remain inadequately addressed in legal doctrine. Rather than assessing these territories through the binary lens of statehood, the book begins by assuming their non-state status and asks: what legal capacity and responsibilities do such entities hold under international law? It considers their obligations toward both other states and the populations under their control, and explores the broader implications for concepts like sovereignty, territorial integrity, and recognition. Drawing on four case studies across a spectrum of state-likeness, the book moves beyond isolated analyses of conflict or self-determination to offer a more holistic account of what these entities reveal about the limits and possibilities of the current international legal framework. It argues for a more functional, capacity-based understanding of legal responsibility that acknowledges the realities of territorial control without forgoing the notion and role of statehood. Combining doctrinal clarity with pragmatic ambition, this book challenges the state-centric foundations of international law and offers a roadmap for engaging with one of its most pressing contemporary challenges: the legal accommodation of non-state territorial authority in a world still structured around states.

Rethinking Capacity and Responsibility in International Law

Non-State Effective Territorial Entities

This open access book explores the political utility and consequences of memory laws with a focus on how militant memory laws frame, underpin and generate international conflicts. Proceeding from Russia's ongoing aggression against Ukraine, this examination plots how memory laws have preceded, partially led to, and encouraged the outbreak of the war itself via Russian propaganda. It also offers a broader perspective looking at developments in the Baltic States, Belarus, Finland, Germany, Hungary, and Poland, as well as in European (Council of Europe and European Union) law. Bringing together scholars with diverse perspectives, this book provides both analysis and conceptual reflection for scholars assessing the politics of memory laws. 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 the University of Copenhagen.

The Politics of Memory Laws

edition suhrkamp

Die Mehrzahl der russischen Bürger ist überzeugt, »der Westen« plane einen Angriff auf ihr Land. Sind es nur die massiven Medienkampagnen, die diese kollektive Hysterie entfacht haben? Woher die Angst, die Aggressivität, der Hass gegen Andersdenkende? Irina Prochorowa blickt zurück auf die Gewaltgeschichte der Sowjetepoche: Oktoberrevolution, Entfesselung des Terrors, Gulag, Zweiter Weltkrieg. Kaum eine Familie, die nicht über Generationen von extremem Leid und seinen Folgen betroffen gewesen wäre. Das Verhältnis zu Schmerz und Verlust wurde vom Staat diktiert, in jubelnden Massenfesten ritualisiert. Individuelle Erinnerung verdrängen zu müssen war die Grunderfahrung der Gesellschaft. Warum lebt diese »Unfähigkeit zu trauern« bis heute fort? Ist sie der Grund für das kollektive Trauma verängstigter Bürger?

Penguin Clothbound Classics

Gaskell’s timeless exploration of class, social justice, and love in all its forms, now a Penguin Clothbound Classic designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith Elizabeth Gaskell's compassionate, richly dramatic novel features one of the most original and fully-rounded female characters in Victorian fiction, Margaret Hale. It shows how, forced to move from the country to an industrial northern town, she develops a passionate sense of social justice, and a turbulent relationship with mill-owner John Thornton. North and South depicts a young woman discovering herself, in a nuanced portrayal of what divides people, and what brings them together. Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

As relevant now as when it was first published, this classic tale weaves a love story with the clash between the pursuit of profit and humanitarian ideals "[An] admirable story ... full of character and power" —Charles Dickens When her father leaves the Church in a crisis of conscience, Margaret Hale is uprooted from her comfortable home in Hampshire to move with her family to the North of England. Initially repulsed by the ugliness of her new surroundings in the industrial town of Milton, Margaret becomes aware of the poverty and suffering of local mill workers and develops a passionate sense of social justice. This is intensified by her tempestuous relationship with the mill-owner and self-made man John Thornton, as their fierce opposition over his treatment of his employees masks a deeper attraction. In North and South Gaskell skilfully fused individual feeling with social concern, and in Margaret Hale created one of the most original heroines of Victorian literature. In her introduction Patricia Ingham examines Elizabeth Gaskell's treatment of geographical, economic and class differences, and the male and female roles portrayed in the novel. This edition also includes further reading, notes and a useful glossary.

North and South

How can we stay connected without losing ourselves, and be ourselves without turning against one another? We are always falling apart and coming together. Families feud and reconcile. Teams splinter and regroup. Communities, organizations, and nations fragment, fight, ally, and unite. Our biggest problem isn’t falling apart and coming together—it’s falling apart or coming together. Increasingly we’re getting trapped in two dangerous extremes: <ul><li>Combat (separateness without togetherness): pulling back into hostile camps, weaponizing differences, and fracturing into polarization and isolation.</li><li>Subordination (togetherness without separateness): demanding harmony, erasing difference, and silencing dissent.</li></ul> Drawing on thirty-five years of work with diverse groups at all scales all around the world—from apartheid and civil war to everyday organizational and family dynamics—bestselling author Adam Kahane offers a practical way to navigate between these extremes. At the heart of his approach is a recognition of two fundamental universal drives: love, our drive to connect and unite with others as interdependent teammates, and power, our drive to do our thing and realize ourselves as independent parties. Kahane shows how these drives can be harmonized only&nbsp; through building justice: living containers—boundaries, rules of the game, and norms—that enable us to be both separate and together as interrelated kin. Through gritty, real-world stories from Kahane’s professional and personal experiences, readers will learn how to <ul><li>steer between combat and subordination;</li><li>work more skillfully with love, power, and justice;</li><li>repair structures and relationships that are cracking; and</li><li>create conditions for people to live and work together across their differences.</li></ul> For anyone trying to lead a family, team, organization, community, or nation so people can remain themselves and stay connected, Falling Apart and Coming Together offers a hopeful, practical path forward and a survival guide for a fracturing world.

Adam Kahane, bestselling author of Collaborating with the Enemy, shows how justice helps families, organizations, communities, and nations repair broken relationships and live together better. A practical guide to using justice as the lever for balancing power and love in a world that is falling apart. We are always falling apart and coming together. In families, workplaces, communities, and nations, people pull back into smaller camps, harden boundaries, or force unity that leaves too many voices unheard. Adam Kahane names the twin traps of combat and subordination and offers a practical way to steer between them: the justice lever. Drawing on thirty-five years of work with divided groups around the world, along with intimate stories from family life and public life, Kahane defines justice as a functional tool. Justice is the container made of rules, norms, agreements, structures, and relationships that allows people to be both separate and together. Readers will learn how to <ul><li>recognize when relationships are slipping into combat or subordination;</li><li>harness power, the drive to realize ourselves;</li><li>harness love, the drive to unite with others;</li><li>construct justice containers that make collaboration and cohabitation possible; and</li><li>repair cracked containers in families, teams, organizations, communities, and public life.</li></ul> Brief and clear, with unforgettable stories from global peace work, climate negotiations, Indigenous health, family life, and organizational repair, this book gives readers a way to start repairing what is cracking right where they are.
