A definitive study of a hotly debated phenomenon: migration into Europe and America, its socioeconomic impacts, and the eternal policy efforts to stop the inevitable.

Talani Leila Simona: The Migration
Question

The Migration Question

Politics, Economics and the Failure of Border Security

'A must-read account from a heroic reporter who has taken on the world's most dangerous tech company' - Chris Miller, award-winning author of Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology 'Engaging . . . this excellent book lays out the damage of letting arbitrary political power intervene in business' - Financial Times It's on your phone. It's on your children's phones. It's on more than a billion screens across the planet, serving up joy, creativity and connection. But behind the slick feed of the world's most addictive app lies ruthless ambition and a global war for control. This is the dramatic, untold story of TikTok. Charting its rise from obscurity into the world's most valuable startup, Emily Baker-White reveals how TikTok's visionary founder, ByteDance CEO Zhang Yiming, reshaped the global internet from a place where you searched for information to one where information comes to you. Billions of users were soon hooked by the most effective recommendation algorithm in the world. But there was a cost to such success. Soon, TikTok was embroiled in accusations of surveillance, censorship and user manipulation, attracting controversy from India and Europe to the US. After Baker-White - a Harvard-trained lawyer and investigative reporter - revealed that Chinese engineers could access Americans' private information, a team of ByteDance employees even used the app to track her location. Based on unprecedented access to internal documents, leaked recordings and accounts from whistle-blowers inside the company, Every Screen on the Planet reveals how TikTok became trapped between two superpowers, desperate to survive. It is the story of how your attention became the world's moннннst valuable - and dangerous - commodity. 'Revealing. A story about power, control and the hidden battles shaping what we see online' - Parmy Olson, bestselling author of Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT and the Race That Will Change the World

The Secret Story of TikTok

Every Screen on the Planet

This is the first comprehensive analysis of Southeast Asian globalization and development since 1870. Interpreting over 150 years of Southeast Asian economic history, Gregg Huff traces the impact of a first period of globalisation from the 1870s to 1929, the effects of Japanese occupation during World War II and its aftermath, and a second wave of globalisation since the late 1960s. He uses vent-for-surplus, dual economy and plural society concepts and argues that the response of those in Southeast Asia to periods of transport revolutions, innovation and opportunity in the world economy translated into rapid export-led growth. Recent swift growth enabled Southeast Asia to start to 'catch up' with the world's leading countries for the first time in its history. Achievements include industrialization, genuine social progress and numerous large urban regions. Nevertheless, the book contends that Southeast Asian development in its 'miracle economies' remains incomplete.

The riveting new exploration of American history - and how it has led to the era of Donald Trump - from the award-winning political broadcaster. 'A well argued and elegant answer to the question, 'how did America get to this place?'' Justin Webb, presenter of Americast 'Pithy, entertaining and informative' Guardian Trump's second term, even more than his first, is often called 'unprecedented'. But history shows that Trump and his policies are as American as apple pie... Much of what Donald Trump does seems maverick and even mad. His actions and policy pronouncements are a stark rupture from the American style of leadership that we have lived with all our lives. Plenty of people - on both sides of the Atlantic - have argued that he will destroy his country's democracy. But whether we like them or not, his trade tariffs, his determination to deport tens of thousands of people, and his apparent contempt for the rule of law are deeply rooted in American history. Made in America shows how the ideal of liberty has been tested in past generations, from the first intolerant Pilgrims to the brutal invasion of Mexico, and reveals the dark side of the American Dream in order to offer urgent lessons to our turbulent present. Here's what readers are saying about Made in America 'Essential read about Trump . . . informative and frightening' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Brilliant. A great romp through the not so sparkling history of the US' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'A very well written and informative book' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

The dark history that led to Donald Trump

Made in America

Fentanyl is a first-person, insider account of how the crisis consumed the Biden Administration amid a series of other national security emergencies. It follows Jake Braun, a senior White House official, and his colleagues while they scramble to respond to the epidemic. As Mexican cartels ruthlessly executed their most radical transformation in 50 years, Braun and his colleagues architected the first U.S. government wide strategy to combat fentanyl in history. The effort brought him to Mexico to meet with Mexican agents who kick down cartel doors for the U.S. government there. He also spent time with data analytics wizards buried in nondescript offices in Virginia suburbs that hunt down Chinese fentanyl precursor chemicals on the Dark Web. He even takes a detour to gather intelligence from Russian migrants in U.S. detention facilities that migrated through cartel-controlled areas of Mexico. In the process, Braun uncovered the remarkable transformation cartels in Mexico underwent over the last 50 years. They morphed from narco-empires the size of Fortune 50 companies specializing in marijuana and cocaine to ones specializing in human migration and, separately, fentanyl. After much painstaking effort, the Biden Administration successfully executed the most sweeping takedown of cartel leadership and fentanyl infrastructure since the crisis began. Due to the efforts of heroic agents, intelligence officers and national security experts, the leviathan U.S. government is now marshaled in ways never before imagined against the Chinese chemical companies and cartels propagating the fentanyl epidemic. Further, the strategy seems to be working. Just a year after it was kicked off, the fentanyl fatalities dropped nearly 37%. Yet the crisis persists. Finally, Braun draws on his unique experience combating the epidemic to outline how the U.S. government can once and for all end the fentanyl crisis in America.

Through rigorous legal analysis and compelling empirical evidence, this essential text challenges readers to confront the profound human cost of hostile immigration policy while offering concrete strategies for trauma-informed reform. It is an urgent call for systemic change that will resonate with academics, policy makers and practitioners across law, social work, migration studies and human rights.

This book is the first of its kind to provide a comprehensive, contextualized and current account of China's development and regulation of cross-border listings. As the world's second-largest economy, it is crucial to understand how China regulates the overseas listing of its companies and the opening up of its capital market to foreign companies, particularly at a time of ongoing and escalating geopolitical tensions. Offering an up-to-date account of the subject, Professor Huang enables readers to gain a holistic and accurate understanding in this area. Providing a contextualized and practical analysis of the subject from a Chinese perspective, he explains not only what the law is but also why the law is the way that it is fundamentally. The book also examines the political, economic and social factors shaping the institutional context in which the law operates, assisting readers in understanding the reasons behind past regulatory actions and predicting future regulatory developments.
