Rappaport Helen: The Rebel Romanov / B

The Rebel Romanov

In this innovative reinterpretation of African and European economic history, Warren Whatley contrasts how Western European freedom from slavery unleashed freedom dividends across Western Europe whilst African-American slave trades instead produced slavery and underdevelopment in Africa.

Princeton Review AP European History Premium Prep, 25th Edition

Hart Studies in Private Law

This book provides a comprehensive study of two parallel notions of civil and common law: cause and consideration. It does this in three ways; with historical, comparative, and functional perspectives. Aspects of cause and consideration are hotly contested by contract lawyers and this book will bring clarity by looking at the English and Continental positions. Key areas of focus include: enforceability, questions of legality and morality, contractual justice, and the correction of unjustified property displacements. Bringing together a team of experts, the book discusses (in some cases for the first time in English) complex questions of both academic and practical importance.

Exploring the Foundations of Contract Law

Cause and Consideration

Driving Productivity reconstructs the industrial histories of the American and German automotive industries, offering a fresh perspective on their development. 
 
From the Fordist assembly line to Japanese lean production and Industry 4.0, Anthony J. Knowles critically examines major technical developments within the historical dynamics of capitalism. Both countries face the pressure to automate, transform labor, and increase efficiency, yet their responses differ due to divergent paradigms of integrating business, labor, and government. The book makes a strong case that improving productivity is a never-ending process that becomes a compulsory social imperative that industries must respond to but that is nevertheless responded to differently between countries.

Automation, Labor, and Industrial Development in the United States and Germany

Driving Productivity

This open access book critically analyses a wide range of consumer law issues generated or exacerbated by the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things challenges many of the dichotomies which have shaped current laws: goods-services, hardware-software, tangible-intangible, online-offline. The book focuses on 4 specific challenges: things-as-service, liability, bricking of physical devices through software control, and the potential for enhanced personalisation, especially for digital assistants. The chapters analyse specific applications such as smart homes, connected cars, and consumer wearables with a view to providing innovative solutions to the new challenges posed by the Internet of Things, and to steer the development of the Internet of Things in a fairer direction. As well as offering an important analysis of the potential for smart consumer laws in the Internet of Things, the book also provides important insights into the growing divergence between Germany's and the UK's consumer laws since Brexit. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by UKRI (Arts and Humanities Research Council) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).

Carl von Imhoff, württembergischer Veteran des Siebenjährigen Krieges und ein bekannter Miniaturenmaler, schifft sich 1769 in Diensten der East India Company von Plymouth nach Kolkâtâ in Bengalen ein. Auf der Schiffspassage verliert - böse Federn schreiben "verkauft" - er seine Frau an Warren Hastings, Indiens künftiges koloniales Ungeheuer. Imhoff nimmt es fatalistisch und zieht an den Weimarer Musenhof. Indien aber lässt seine Ex-Frau, Sohn und Enkel nicht mehr los. Die Geschichte des deutschen Barons Carl von Imhoff, Marian de Saint Valentin und Warren Hastings dreht einige Runden in der Literatur, zum Beispiel bei Macaulay, Feuchtwanger und Brecht. Welche moderne Scheidungsgeschichte bietet mehr?

Summer 2014. Crimea has been seized; death and destruction are running wild in eastern Ukraine. Michael Pugh has heard the rumble of dragons awakening, and despite the splendor of life as an expat lawyer in Moscow, decides it is time to go. With a love of Russia dating back to his student days, Michael chooses to leave the slow way: by horse.Riding west through a bucolic Russian landscape of wildflower meadows to monasteries and historic battle sites is like riding back in time. Soon, Dog Friday joins Michael and they ride deeper into a vast wilderness, dotted with forgotten aristocratic estates meeting fascinating characters along the way.There's a change of pace in Belarus when Michael swaps his Kabardin steed Parliament for Marlboro, a stallion with a nose for adventure. Fire, dancing and song envelop him at the midsummer festival of Kupala. Riding on, he explores the vanished lives of the Poles and the Jews. Despite dark warnings about Ukraine, Michael finds a welcoming people, fiercely proud to defend their beautiful country from Russia. Finally, he navigates the complex legacy of Austria-Hungary in Romania. Throughout, his journey is lifted by the antics of horses, guides and stable girls; by the kindness of the strangers and friends and by the great quantities of delicious food and fiery moonshine.

Riding Through War and Peace

A new history of the idea of Europe from Ancient Greece to the present 'A magisterial history, written with great panache, that is both enlightening and deeply readable. A true tour de force - Peter Frankopan What do we talk about when we talk about Europe? Is it defined by geography? Or is it politics, or shared culture? In Europe, award-winning historian Roderick Beaton tells the story of Europe as never before - as the history of an idea, and a collective identity. Since its dramatic birth in ancient Greece, 'Europe' has been defined, and redefined, by its people. Through this powerful lens, and with the narrative drive and scope of a novelist, Beaton deftly surveys Europe's major historical developments: the rise and fall of Rome; the explosion of Christianity; the intellectual ferment of the Renaissance and the Enlightenment; the arrival of Europeans in the Americas; the violent upheavals of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and the uncertainties of the present. Throughout, original sources allow the voices of the past, from Tacitus to Thatcher, to speak for themselves. Grappling with the multilayered identities that have always come with being European, Europe places the Europe of today in a long arc of history stretching back more than 2,500 years.

A New History

Europe

From Alexander Pushkin and Nikolai Gogol, Leo Tolstoy and Vladimir Nabokov, to Nadezhda Mandelstam and Olga Slavnikova, Natalya Meshchaninov and Alla Gorbunova, the new, fresh voices of Russia today rub shoulders with the greats of the past. Together these hundred writers, their hundred voices, sing out together to create a glorious chorus of three centuries of Russian short stories.

Defiant Voices

A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to the First World War, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.

 beschreibt Anna Heringer ihr Architektur-Verständnis. 
 Für ihr neues Buch reiste sie mit Iwan Baan nach Bangladesch, um mit ihm die dort entstandenen Bauten aber auch ihr Frauen-Empowerment Projekt, die Dipdii Textiles, zu besuchen. Der niederländische Fotograf Iwan Baan ist vor allem für Bilder bekannt, die das Leben und die Interaktionen in der Architektur zeigen. In Bangladesch entstanden intensive und sinnliche Bilder, die zwischen Dokumentation und Kunst Zeugnis von dem ablegen, was Architektur leisten kann, wenn es nicht um Repräsentation, sondern um gesellschaftlichen Nutzen geht. <ul><li>

Mitte der 1970er Jahre waren Migrant*innen ein fester Bestandteil der westdeutschen Gesellschaft. Gleichwohl waren deren politische Partizipationsmöglichkeiten hart umstritten. Politik und Gesellschaft rangen um die Frage, ob die Bundesrepublik ein Einwanderungsland sei. In den Auseinandersetzungen um die Integration und Partizipation von Migrant*innen übernahm München eine Pionierrolle. Als eine der ersten verabschiedete die Stadt 1974 ein "Ausländerprogramm" und richtete einen Ausländerbeirat ein, der die Interessen migrantischer Einwohner*innen und ihre Forderung nach sozialer und politischer Teilhabe vertreten sollte. An der Schnittstelle zwischen Migrations- und Stadtgeschichte zeigt Grazia Prontera die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen dieses Gremiums in den mühsamen Aushandlungsprozessen zwischen Bund, Land und Kommune, die von programmatischen Innovationen ebenso geprägt waren wie von bürokratischen Zuständigkeitsfragen und parteitaktischen Erwägungen.
