Everyday Hate. How antisemitism is built into our world and how you can change it

Biteback Publishing, 2023. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 320. Antisemitism is supposed to have disappeared long ago, but despite our abhorrence of racism and oppression in all its forms, this ancient prejudice continues to thrive. Anti-Jewish hate crime is rising, Jewish blood is spilt in Europe once more and arguments over antisemitism, whether in politics or music, theatre or sport, are increasingly hard to avoid. At a time of economic, political and social turmoil, fueled by conspiracy theories on your smartphone or conflict in the Middle East, antisemitism is back, and we need to know why. It would be tempting to put this down to a handful of extremists, but antisemitism endures at an everyday level in the stereotypes and assumptions about Jews that are woven into the fabric of our world. It is these almost-unnoticed prejudices that perpetuate violent hatred, and until we all understand where they came from, how they are sustained and how they can be challenged, they will continue to do so. Blending personal anecdotes, contemporary examples and historical insights, Everyday Hate takes you on a journey through this contentious and often confusing subject. Spanning Shakespeare to South Park, Israel to Covid-19 and ancient stereotypes to internet memes, it reveals surprising truths about how antisemitism continues to thrive in the interactions, assumptions and views of decent people around the world - and how we can change this for the better.

Exodus. Hoe migratie onze wereld verandert

Spectrum, 2013. Paperback. Pp: 240. Hoe migratie onze wereld verandert Nooit eerder waren jonge mensen in arme landen zich zo bewust van de mogelijkheden buiten hun eigen land. Het gevolg is migratie op grote schaal, waardoor zelfs hele landen ontvolkt kunnen raken. In de gastlanden wonen mensen van allerlei nationaliteiten, die niet integreren. De bevolking van de emigratielanden raakt verspreid en het zwaartepunt van hun economische activiteit ligt vaak buiten hun land van oorsprong.   Exodus zal veel discussie opleveren Paul Collier neemt een prikkelende stelling in. Hij bepleit dat nationale grenzen alleen binnen strenge regels overschreden kunnen worden. Exodus presenteert ethische en legitieme redenen om migratie te beperken, in het belang van zowel de samenleving in de gastlanden als in de migratielanden. Collier onderbouwt zijn betoog met de verhalen van mensen die achterbleven, van mensen die emigreerden naar nieuwe landen en van degenen die het effect van migranten in hun eigen maatschappij ondervinden.   Paul Collier is hoogleraar Economie in Oxford en was directeur ontwikkelingsonderzoek van de Wereldbank. Hij was topadviseur over Afrika voor Tony Blair en wordt regelmatig door verschillende wereldleiders om advies gevraagd over de armoedeproblematiek. ISBN: 9789049102340. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

The Expansive Moment. The rise of Social Anthropology in Britain and Africa 1918-1970

Cambridge University Press, 1995. Hardcover. Pp: 244. Jack Goody's new book explores the history of social anthropology as an emergent discipline in the interwar years. It focuses on key practitioners, such as Malinowski and Fortes, and explores how far ideological approaches adopted by social anthropologists were defined by the institutions in which they developed, particularly in response to key issues of the time: colonialism, anti-Semitism and communism. Goody focuses on Britain and Africa, and draws on his own wide-ranging personal fieldwork experience. ISBN: 9780521450485. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Experiments with Truth

Distributed Art Pub Incorporated, 2002. Paperback. Pp: 404. The catastrophic fate of European Jewry during the years of National Socialism in Germany and the subsequent calamity of the holocaust for both Jews and other minorities under the Third Reich have continued to press on contemporary thinkers and historians the difficult task of coming to terms with its features. While the Holocaust or Shoah remains representative of a form of state crime, its overwhelming singularity is today tested by many cases of state impunity, systemic violence, repression, war crimes, and gross human rights violations-especially in the Balkans and Rwanda. In the wake of the debates around such violations, new and formidable categories of jurisprudence are emerging in which such notions as transitional justice, global justice, and universal jurisdiction are working to reshape the nature of judicial sovereignty on the one hand and accountability on the other in the post-cold war period. "Experiments with Truth" engages with the vicissitudes of the emerging debates around "Truth and Reconciliation," new forms of global justice, testimonies and memories of communities. In this volume a wide range of intellectuals, artists, filmmakers, and historians respond to the challenge of transitional justice in often difficult but illuminating ways. ISBN: 9783775790802.

Op de Expo kon men immers de Russische spoetnik bewonderen, een sprekende encyclopedie uittesten en met eigen ogen zien dat het veelbesproken Atomium wel degelijk overeind bleef.In hun zondagse kleren en in een sfeer van grenzeloos optimisme proefden massaal veel bezoekers er voor het eerst softijs, Coca-Cola en Turkse koffie.Ter gelegenheid van vijftig jaar Expo `58 bundelden de veertien Erfgoedcellen van Vlaanderen hun krachten. Honderden getuigen uit heel Vlaanderen werden geïnterviewd en duizenden foto`s en andere documenten verzameld. Die boeiende anekdotes en unieke foto`s zijn gebundeld in dit feestelijke boek.

Eduardo Gudynas 306678

Extractivisms. Politics, Economics and Ecology

Fernwood, 2021. Paperback. Pp: 156. Nature and communities in the global south is being overwhelmed at a shocking rate. In many places this is due to ventures such as large-scale open-pit mining, oil extraction in tropical areas, and the spread of monocultures. These and other such forms of natural resource appropriation are usually known as extractivisms. This introductory book on the one hand adopts an interdisciplinary and critical perspective, incorporating contributions from economics, politics, ecology, and more. On the other hand it is an exercise in the politics among humans and with the environment. Eduardo Gudnyas explores negative local impacts such as ecological and health degradation or violence, along with spillover effects that redefines democracy and justice. Significantly, presented for the first time in English is a comprehensive overview of the theoretical innovations currently being discussed in the South, such as the distinction between appropriation and production modes and a redefinition of surplus to include social and economic features or new understandings on conflict dynamics. Furthermore, Gudynas discusses the Latin American peculiarities of extractivisms produced both by conservative and new-left governments, making clear that it has very deep roots in culture and ideologies, and offers solutions for the future. 'This book is the result of many years of accumulated knowledge acquired from books and direct experience. Written and thought with demanding erudition and unbeatable passion, it reflects the work of a brilliant mind inhabiting an extraordinary human being. Gudynas's exemplary scholarship has gifted us scholars and politicians with an immensely valuable instrument to learn from, think about and make policy with. Strange to say about an object, but this book is intellectually cosmopolitan: accessible to a very wide public, many will feel at home with it.'

Richard Sennett 40121

The Fall of Public Man

Penguin Adult, 2002. Paperback. Pp: 416. Richard Sennett's The Fall of Public Manexamines the growing imbalance between private and public experience, and asks what can bring us to reconnect with our communities. Are we now so self-absorbed that we take little interest in the world beyond our own lives? Or has public life left no place for individuals to participate? Tracing the changing nature of urban society from the eighteenth century to the world we now live in, and the decline of involvement in political life in recent decades, Richard Sennett discusses the causes of our social withdrawal. His landmark study of the imbalance of modern civilization provides a fascinating perspective on the relationship between public life and the cult of the individual. 'Brilliant. One admires the breadth of Professor Sennett's erudition, the reach of his historical imagination, the doggedness of his analysis. Buy this book and read it. Ironically, it may provide a key to happiness' Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New York Times 'A powerful argument for a more formal public culture and a swipe against the rise of a self-indulgent counter-culture' Melissa Benn, Guardian 'A provocative book. Sennett brings us to an undeniably recognizable place, the contemporary urban scene' Richard Todd, Atlantic MonthlyRichard Sennett'sprevious books include The Fall of Public Man, The Corrosion of Character, Flesh and Stoneand Respect. He was founder director of the New York Institute for the Humanities, and is now University Professor at New York University and Academic Governor and Professor of Sociology at the London School of Economics.
