Paper Cut

Equality law is audist. Deaf communities around the world continue to encounter Deaf Legal Exclusion through legal frameworks that define them narrowly and restrict their rights. This book examines why these frameworks have not delivered equality in practice. It argues that the core issue is structural misrecognition: law protects deaf people only when they accept a definition based on impairment. Sign language, culture and community are treated as secondary. What appears to be inclusion is often a Deaf Legal Illusion: equality claimed in principle but absent in practice. The book analyses five models used to categorise deaf people in law and policy: disability, language minority, culturo-linguistic community, ethnic group and Indigenous group. Some appear in legislation; others are found in scholarship and advocacy. Each reflects only part of deaf people's lives. Drawing on doctrinal and socio-legal analysis of the Equality Act 2010, case law of the ECtHR, and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the book critiques how equality law relies on narrow definitions of fairness. It explores formal, substantive and transformative precepts of equality, assessing their ability to reflect deaf people's experiences. It identifies the audist assumptions built into legal systems that expect deaf people to adapt to hearing norms, while withholding full recognition of sign language and community belonging. In response, the book proposes the Deaf Rights Model, which brings the five models together as complementary rather than competing. Alongside Deaf Equality Concepts, it offers a framework in which sign language, culture and community become central to legal thinking about equality. The Deaf Legal Dilemma establishes Deaf Legal Studies as a field grounded in the priorities and expertise of deaf communities. It invites lawmakers, practitioners and scholars to rethink the purpose of the law and the structures through which deaf people are recognised.

No One Wants to See Your D*ck

A spellbinding tale of female defiance and rage In a time outside time, in a world hemmed in by dark woods and silence, the villagers of Les Montes endure a life of hardship and submission. The land is stingy, the Lords are merciless, and for the village women, resistance is a futile dream. One day, a foundling appears at the edge of the forest. Madelaine grows up to be mysterious, magnetic, and shockingly adept with an axe. One day, she slaughters a stag in defiance of the Lord's decrees. The land, the laws, and the lives of those around her tremble in response, and a new destiny begins to take root. Madelaine Before the Dawn is a wild, lyrical novel about the inheritance of silence and the fire of female defiance. Collette has created an electrifying vision of revolt and resilience at the edge of civilization.

As national governments and global institutions fail to address climate change, an increasing number of cities have committed to major sustainability and climate strategies. Why do some cities take bold action while others remain on the sidelines? Christof Brandtner shows that city climate action is not simply a matter of political will: It is an organizational problem. Cities do not act alone. They are embedded within both a broad institutional superstructure of professional networks and peer cities as well as a deep organizational infrastructure of civil society organizations, public agencies, and socially responsible firms. This dual embeddedness shapes cities' capacity to plan, learn, lead, and scale sustainability solutions. Drawing on comparative research spanning fifteen years and thousands of cities around the world, Brandtner traces how environmental strategies, sustainability practices, and green building initiatives emerge, diffuse, and take hold. He uncovers the structural conditions that enable and inhibit meaningful climate action, revealing why it varies so widely across cities. By combining lenses from urban theory and organizational sociology, Cities in Action sheds light on how cities navigate their social and institutional environments to meet the climate challenge. This book offers a novel perspective for scholars, policy makers, and practitioners seeking not just to explain but also to empower city action.

Cities in Action

How corporations can address legacies of historical oppression in ways that are good for them and good for others. Increasingly, corporate executives find themselves called upon to atone for their predecessors’ moral transgressions. While many are prepared to address inherited failed product lines or dysfunctional teams, few know how to handle demands that their enterprise address legacies of mass atrocity such as slavery, genocide, or colonialism. In Corporate Reckoning, Sarah Federman provides a corporate atonement model for corporate leaders and employees across industries around the world. When survivors and descendants demand reckoning, many corporate leaders initially shirk the responsibilities that follow from these requests. They may claim that history belongs to the historians, that their company’s activities were legal at the time, or that too much time has passed. If it comes to it, courts will rule in their favor, they reassure themselves. Others avoid these issues simply because they have no idea how to address them. Demands for reckoning ebb and flow, but these histories do not disappear. This book offers a way forward that serves companies and those affected by these historical harms. Taking responsibility for irreparable harm is not easy or comfortable. Despite the dilemmas and difficulties, the only way out is through.

Die Public Health Humanities verstehen Gesundheit und Krankheit als kulturell und sozial geprägte Phänomene. Sie ergänzen die empirisch orientierte Multidisziplin Public Health um geisteswissenschaftliche und künstlerische Perspektiven. Dabei fragen sie nach der Bedeutung des Künstlerischen für die Gesundheit, interessieren sich für moralische, soziale und kulturelle Dimensionen von Gesundheit und Krankheit in Kunst bzw. Medien und bieten theoretische Zugänge für gesundheitliche Analysen an. Bezugsdisziplinen sind u.a. Kunst-, Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften, Philosophie und Geschichte. Die Beiträger*innen leuchten das Spektrum unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und Zugänge der Public Health Humanities erstmals auf Deutsch aus.

The Margellos World Republic of Letters

The extraordinary testimony of a daring Caribbean writer-activist, determined to expose injustice and defend the dignity of migrant workers &nbsp; In the 1960s, hundreds of women traveled from French colonies in the West Indies to become domestic workers for white families in France. Lured by the French government with the false promise of economic opportunity, these women instead found themselves subjected to racial discrimination, deplorable living conditions, overwork, and no pay until they "earned back" the cost of the trip to France.After hearing the shocking stories of Caribbean domestic workers, Françoise Ega took a position as a cleaning woman in wealthy French homes in order to chronicle these abuses. Structured as a collection of unsent letters to the Brazilian writer Carolina Maria de Jesus, Notes to a Black Woman weaves the story of Ega's experiences in France with her memories of Martinique, her observations on the joys and tribulations of family life, and her reflections on the power of the written word to reveal the discomfiting truths behind the facade of bourgeois French society.Composed on her bus commutes and by candlelight at her kitchen table while her five children slept, Notes to a Black Woman is a piercing denunciation of the legacies of colonialism and slavery, a wholesale rejection of alienation, and an intimate archive of friendship, joy, solidarity, motherhood, and hope.

Notes to a Black Woman

Noch nie gab es so viel Reichtum - und das ist ein Problem für uns alle!In kaum einem anderen westlichen Land ist Vermögen so ungleich verteilt wie bei uns - und die Schere geht immer weiter auf. Dieses Buch zeigt das schockierende Ausmaß der Ungleichheit in Deutschland. Dass die Vermögen der Reichen von Generation zu Generation immer weiter wachsen, während jeder Sechste in Armut lebt, ist gesellschaftliches Dynamit. Martyna Linartas zeigt, dass es von unserem politischen Willen abhängt, daran etwas zu ändern, und wie eine gerechte Lösung aussehen könnte.In dieser hellsichtigen und fundierten Analyse wird das politische Tabuthema unserer Zeit seziert: Dass wir die Reichen nicht besteuern, gefährdet unseren Wohlstand, unsere Umwelt und unsere Demokratie. Aber es geht auch anders - wenn wir nur wollen! Anhand von exklusiven Interviews mit der mächtigen Wirtschaftselite über Ungleichheit und das Zusammenspiel von Wirtschaft und Politik sowie einer einmaligen historischen Analyse zeigt sich, wie eine Besteuerung von Überreichen funktionieren kann. Dieses Buch gibt uns alle Argumente an die Hand, um jetzt zu handeln.'Ganz wenige haben zu viel. Zu viele haben ganz wenig. Dieses Buch verdeutlicht dies grandios und zeigt die Auswege aus dem Wahnsinn auf.' - Tilo Jung
