Blood of Others: Stalin's Crimean Atrocity and the Poetics of Solidarity by Rory Finnin
English | April 7, 2022 | ISBN: 148750781X | True EPUB | 352 pages | 1.6 MB
In the spring of 1944, Stalin deported the Crimean Tatars, a small Sunni Muslim nation, from their ancestral homeland on the Black Sea peninsula. The gravity of this event, which ultimately claimed the lives of tens of thousands of victims, was shrouded in secrecy after the Second World War. What broke the silence in Soviet Russia, Soviet Ukraine, and the Republic of Turkey were works of literature. These texts of poetry and prose - some passed hand-to-hand underground, others published to controversy - shocked the conscience of readers and sought to move them to action.

Matteo Fumagalli, "Authoritarian Stability in the South Caucasus: Voting preferences, autocratic responses and regime stability in Armenia "
English | ISBN: 1138478377 | 2018 | 128 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
In recent years, competitive authoritarianism has become an increasingly common form of non-democratic politics. What is the relationship between the demand for particular public policies and a regime's durability in office in such cases? How does policy-making interact with organizational power, the willingness to resort to coercion and patronage politics in countries home to democratic-looking institutions that none the less fall short of democratic standards?

Alexander von Humboldt: Multiperspective Approaches
English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030940071 | 273 Pages | PDF (True) | 9 MB
This book aims to view and to understand Alexander von Humboldt from different perspectives and in varying disciplinary contexts. His contributions addressed numerous topics in the earth but also life sciences-spanning from geo-botany, climatology, paleontology, oceanography, mineralogy, resources, and hydrogeology to links between the environmental impact of humans, erosion, and climate change. From the very beginning, he paved the way for a modern, integrated earth system science approach to decipher, characterize, and model the different forcing factors and their feedback mechanisms. It becomes obvious that Humboldt's holistic approach is far beyond simple description and empiric data collection. As documented and analyzed in the different texts of this volume, he combines observation and analysis with emotions and subjective perceptions in a very affectionate way. However, this publication does not intend to add another encyclopedic text compilation but to observe and critically analyze this unique personality´s relevance in a modern context, particularly in discussing environmental and social key issues in the twenty-first century.

Eduardo Gamarra, "A Divided Union: Structural Challenges to Bipartisanship in America"
English | ISBN: 0367565374 | 2020 | 198 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
A Divided Union delves deep into ten pressing political challenges that former US Representatives Patrick Murphy (D) and David Jolly (R) have identified over their multiple terms in Congress and that continue to plague the American electorate today. In an introduction describing their unique paths to Congress, Murphy and Jolly focus in detail on key institutional barriers they faced in Washington in attempting to do the job voters elected them to do. They introduce us to geographic challenges, demographic change, a polarized media, gerrymandering, the role of money in politics, the structure of primary elections, and several other aspects of political life on Capitol Hill. The core of the book is original analysis by experts who tackle these topics in a manner relevant to both the seasoned political science student as well as the general reader. From the commercials we see on TV to the city council districts in which we live, these concerns shape every facet of our public lives and are distilled here in a careful synthesis of years of experience and research. Contributors include former federal elected officials, political science professors, members of the press, and scholars immersed in their fields of study. While other textbooks may examine similar issues, few have been edited by former members of the U.S. House who have walked the halls of Congress and directly experienced political dysfunction at so many levels - and are willing to address it.

Opis:
Początek letniego obozu. Czwórka odstających od reszty nastolatków - Alex, ZhenZhen, Dariush i Gabriel - dowiaduje się, że musi stawić czoła wyzwaniu większemu niż nauka pływania kanu czy wspinania się po linie - kosmitom, którzy atakują Ziemię. Dzieciaki zostają zupełnie same na kempingu niegdyś pełnego ludzi i niespodziewanie otrzymują klucz, dzięki któremu można powstrzymać inwazję. Nie mają dorosłych ani urządzeń elektronicznych do pomocy, więc nie mają też wyboru - muszą połączyć siły, pokonać strach i ocalić świat.
