Gang-related violence has forced thousands of Hondurans to flee their country, leaving behind everything as refugees and undocumented migrants abroad. To uncover how this happened, Jon Carter looks back to the mid-2000s, when neighborhood gangs were scrambling to survive state violence and mass incarceration, locating there a critique of neoliberal globalization and state corruption that foreshadows Honduras's current crises. Carter begins with the story of a thirteen-year-old gang member accused in the murder of an undercover DEA agent, asking how the nation's seductive criminal underworld has transformed the lives of young people. He then widens the lens to describe a history of imperialism and corruption that shaped this underworld—from Cold War counterinsurgency to the "War on Drugs" to the near-impunity of white-collar crime—as he follows local gangs who embrace new trades in the illicit economy. Carter describes the gangs' transformation from neighborhood groups to sprawling criminal societies, even in the National Penitentiary, where they have become political as much as criminal communities. Gothic Sovereignty reveals not only how the revolutionary potential of gangs was lost when they merged with powerful cartels but also how close analysis of criminal communities enables profound reflection on the economic, legal, and existential discontents of globalization in late liberal nation-states.

Now featuring a new preface by Peter Thiel Two renowned investment advisors and authors of the bestseller The Great Reckoning bring to light both currents of disaster and the potential for prosperity and renewal in the face of radical changes in human history as we move into the next century. The Sovereign Individual details strategies necessary for adapting financially to the next phase of Western civilization. Few observers of the late twentieth century have their fingers so presciently on the pulse of the global political and economic realignment ushering in the new millennium as do James Dale Davidson and Lord William Rees-Mogg. Their bold prediction of disaster on Wall Street in Blood in the Streets was borne out by Black Tuesday. In their ensuing bestseller, The Great Reckoning, published just weeks before the coup attempt against Gorbachev, they analyzed the pending collapse of the Soviet Union and foretold the civil war in Yugoslavia and other events that have proved to be among the most searing developments of the past few years. In The Sovereign Individual, Davidson and Rees-Mogg explore the greatest economic and political transition in centuries—the shift from an industrial to an information-based society. This transition, which they have termed "the fourth stage of human society," will liberate individuals as never before, irrevocably altering the power of government. This outstanding book will replace false hopes and fictions with new understanding and clarified values.

Gothic Modern illuminates the pivotal discovery of medieval Gothic art for Edvard Munch, Käthe Kollwitz and their artist contemporaries. It explores their deep attraction to the Gothic art of Europe’s north and German lands via paintings, prints and in other artistic media to imagine a new ‘Gothic modernity’, unlocking a different energy of modern art and creative experiment beyond nation-centric stories. The book sheds light on the profound importance of medieval Gothic art for Edvard Munch, Käthe Kollwitz and their contemporaries. It explores their re-imagining of Gothic art between the 1870s and 1920s to create new visions of the artist, ‘belonging’, modern society, sexuality, spirituality and identity. In these ways, a distant Gothic age is recreated as tantalisingly close to ‘modernity’, in short, to making modern art. Dark or radiant, enchanted or uncanny, these sites of ‘Gothic modernity’ inspired Munch’s and Kollwitz’s generation with urgent imaginaries for creating worlds. Artists include: Hans Baldung Grien, Ernst Barlach, Max Beckmann, Dirk Bouts, Arnold Böcklin, Gustav Carus, Lovis Corinth, Lucas Cranach The Elder, Otto Dix, Albrecht Dürer, James Ensor, Lyonel Feininger, Akseli Gallen-kallela, Matthias Grünewald, Ernst Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Max Klinger, Käthe Kollwitz, Lowis Korinth, George Minne, Paula Modersohn-becker, Edvard Munch, Emil Nolde, Helene Schjerfbeck, Hugo Simberg, Carl Spitzweg, Marianne Stokes, Henrik Sorensen, Hans Thoma, Gustave Van De Woestyne, Vincent Van Gogh, Emanuel Vigeland, Gustav Vigeland, et al.

V knize se bývalý americký prezident podrobně zabývá předsudky, diskriminací, násilím, zkresleným výkladem náboženských textů (Bible, Koránu a dalších), fyzickým a duševním týráním, chudobou, nemocemi a válkami z hlediska ženské nerovnosti, existující dnes na celém světě. Carter ukazuje, že muži sice s tímto stavem věcí mnohdy nesouhlasí, ale mlčí, aby si zachovali dominantní postavení. Jimmy Carter navštívil se svou ženou Rosalynn 145 zemí světa a společně založili neziskovou organizaci The Carter Center, která aktivně působí v polovině z nich. Měl příležitost seznámit se s lidmi z často velmi odlehlých vesnic v džunglích i pouštích. Dozvěděl se mnoho z jejich osobního života, zvláště to, že nerovnost mezi pohlavími roste stále rychleji a platí to stejnou měrou pro země bohaté i chudé. Carter si sice uvědomuje, že ekonomická nerovnost ve světě představuje čím dál větší problém, ale zároveň již dospěl k pevnému přesvědčení, že nejvážnějším a všeobecně opomíjeným problémem se celosvětově staly deprivace a týrání žen i dívek, jež převážně povstaly z falešného výkladu některých náboženských textů a rostoucí tolerance vůči násilí a válkám - podle jeho slov naneštěstí tento příklad světu poskytly samotné Spojené státy americké. Carter zdůrazňuje, že kromě velkého utrpení žen, o němž se téměř nemluví, tu je i zničující dopad na ekonomiku v důsledku toho, že k prosperitě nemůže přispět nejméně polovina lidské populace na Zemi.

A killing like no other.A killer more twisted than he’s ever seen before.A case that will test him to the limit. Has Robert Hunter finally met his match?‘Do you believe the Devil exists, Detective?’ the officer at the end of the line asks. ‘Because if you don’t . . . I’m sure you will once you get here.’ Robert Hunter is called to the most vicious crime scene he has ever attended. It is made even more disturbing when the autopsy reveals a poem, left by the killer, inside the body of their victim. Soon, another body is found. The methods and signature of the murder differs, but the level of violence used suggests that the same person is behind both crimes. Hunter’s fears are confirmed when a second part of the poem is found. But this discovery does more than just link the two killings – it suggests that this is the work of a serial murderer. With no forensic evidence to go on, Robert Hunter must catch the most disciplined and systematic killer that he has ever encountered, someone who thrives on the victims' fear, and to whom death is a lesson that needs to be taught.From #1 Sunday Times and multi-million copy bestselling author, Chris Carter, comes the most compelling and ruthless Robert Hunter thriller yet.

These are subversive tales by Ama Ata Aidoo, Jane Bowles, Angela Carter, Colette, Bessie Head, Jamaica Kincaid and Katherine Mansfield among others. They all have one thing in common; the wish to restore adventuresses and revolutionaries to their rightful position as models for all women.

He adds detail and emotion about his youth in rural Georgia that he described in his magnificent An Hour Before Daylight. He writes about racism and the isolation of the Carters. He describes the brutality of the hazing regimen at Annapolis, and how he nearly lost his life twice serving on submarines and his amazing interview with Admiral Rickover. He describes the profound influence his mother had on him, and how he admired his father even though he didn’t emulate him. He admits that he decided to quit the Navy and later enter politics without consulting his wife, Rosalynn, and how appalled he is in retrospect. In his “warm and detailed memoir” (Los Angeles Times), Carter tells what he is proud of and what he might do differently. He discusses his regret at losing his re-election, but how he and Rosalynn pushed on and made a new life and second and third rewarding careers. He is frank about the presidents who have succeeded him, world leaders, and his passions for the causes he cares most about, particularly the condition of women and the deprived people of the developing world. “Always warm and human…even inspirational” (Buffalo News), A Full Life is a wise and moving look back from this remarkable man. Jimmy Carter has lived one of our great American lives—from rural obscurity to world fame, universal respect, and contentment. A Full Life is an extraordinary read from a “force to be reckoned with” (Christian Science Monitor).

Kniha - autor Kalashatra Govinda; Gaby Brandl, česky Objevujeme spirituální dimenzi ženské sexuality. Na anatomické úrovni označuje sanskrtský pojem »jóni« zevní i vnitřní ženské pohlavní orgány. V širším smyslu představuje »jóni« především spirituální tajemství související se sexuální energií ženy, s přijímající silou, obětavostí, potěšením, rozkoší a láskou. S pomocí meditací a cvičení, cíleného používání muder a praxe jóni-jógy lze odhalovat prvotní ženskou sílu a rozvíjet ji. Důležitou roli přitom sehrává i masáž jóni, která stimuluje srdeční, sakrální a kořenovou čakru a která je uvádí do souladu. Tantrická JÓNI jóga je pro tebe tou správnou knihou, jestliže nejsi spokojena se svými dosavadními sexuálními zkušenostmi, jestliže chceš vědět, zda ti rozkoš a smyslnost dokážou nabídnout šanci zacházet pozorněji a intenzivněji sama se sebou i se svým partnerem a dosáhnout sama či ve dvojici vrcholu extáze, když dospěješ k poznání, že sex...

Over the past decade, Jon Alexander’s consultancy, the New Citizenship Project, has helped revitalise some of Britain’s biggest organisations including the Co-op, the Guardian and the National Trust. Here, with the New York Timesbestselling writer Ariane Conrad, he shows how history is about to enter the age of the Citizen. Because when our institutions treat people as creative, empowered creatures rather than consumers, everything changes. Unleashing the power of everyone equips us to face the challenges of economic insecurity, climate crisis, public health threats, and polarisation. Citizens is an upbeat handbook, full of insights, clear examples to follow, and inspiring case studies, from the slums of Kenya to the backstreets of Birmingham – and a foreword by Brian Eno. It is the perfect pick-me-up for leaders, founders, elected officials – and citizens everywhere. An ideal companion to the groundbreaking books Doughnut Economics and Radical Help. Organise and seize the future! Reviews ''Every great transformation requires a new story. A story that reveals new possibilities and points toward an optimistic alternative to the current situation. Citizens presents just such a story.'' – Tim Brown, Chair of IDEO and author of Change By Design ''The shift from consumer to citizen is a truly big idea. If you’re in a position of strategic influence, I strongly recommend you engage with this and consciously explore what it might mean for your organisation.'' – Dame Fiona Reynolds DBE, Former Director General, National Trust, and Trustee, BBC ''The belief that every single one of us has both the potential and the desire to make the world better drives me every day, in everything I do. In Citizens, Jon shows how taking that belief as a starting point really could transform our world. This is a truly powerful book, in every sense of the word.'' - Josh Babarinde, Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Entrepreneur ''There is such a thing as an idea whose time has come. This is that idea.'' – James Perry, Board Member, B Lab Global, and Founding Partner, Snowball Investment Management About the Authors JON ALEXANDER began his career with success in advertising, winning the prestigious Big Creative Idea of the Year before making a dramatic change. Driven by a deep need to understand the impact on society of 3,000 commercial messages a day, he gathered three Masters degrees, exploring consumerism and its alternatives from every angle. In 2014, he co-founded the New Citizenship Project to bring the resulting ideas into contact with reality. In Citizens, he is ready to share them with the world. BRIAN ENO is an artist, philosopher and Citizen who has played a critical part in British culture since the early 1970s. He is a deep believer in the power of ideas and the possibility of a better world. His latest book is What Art Does. Buy the book and start readingForeword. Brian Eno sets out the value of Citizens in framing a new, optimistic cooperative story for our age, as opposed to the two other options: authoritarian states such as China and "Siliconia" - "a Consumer state with centralised power and deep surveillance". Mentions Citizen Story 1. Opening. Jon Alexander sets out the need to ''step into'' the Citizen Story so that we can deal with the many challenges of our age: economic insecurity, ecological emergency, public health threats, political polarisation, and more. Mentions citizens, economic insecurity, ecological emergency 2. Citizens Everywhere. How humans are bound together through interdependence and reciprocity, and in turn have a deep bond with nature, which conventional big business cannot understand. Picks apart the self-dependence and utilitarian philosophy of tech billionaires Peter Thiel and Mark Zuckerberg 3. Citizens By Nature. Central to the Citizen Story is a belief in ourselves and in human nature as creative, capable, and caring, rather than lazy, self-interested, and competitive within a zero-sum framework. Any redesign of institutions will fail if we haven’t embraced this fundamental belief 4. We''re All Consumers Now. The launch of the consumer age, by way of Apple''s advert for its new Macintosh at the US SuperBowl in 1984.

''One of the very few necessary and inevitable utterances of the century.'' William Morris, in the Preface. The Nature of Gothic started life as a chapter in Ruskin''s masterwork, The Stones of Venice. Ruskin came to lament the ''Frankenstein monsters'' of Victorian buildings with added Gothic which ''The Stones'' inspired; but despite his misgivings the original moral purpose of his writing had not fallen on stony ground. The Nature of Gothic, the last chapter of the second volume, had marked his progression from art critic to social critic; in it he found the true seam of his thought, and it was quickly recognised for the revolutionary writing it was. As Morris himself put it, The Nature of Gothic ''pointed out a new road on which the world should travel''; and in its indictment of meaningless modern labour and its celebration of medieval architecture it could be called the foundation stone of Morris''s aesthetic and purpose in life. 40 years after he first read it, Morris chose Ruskin''s text for one of the first books to be published at his Kelmscott Press, using his own Golden type. It is one of the summits of his career, and one of the most beautiful books ever published.Few books can so completely sum up an era. The Kelmscott Nature of Gothic encapsulates the meeting of two remarkable minds and embodies their influence in word, image and design. But more than that, Ruskin''s words are increasingly relevant for our times. In this facsimile edition, the first ever made of this rare book, the reader can fully appreciate their importance and their legacy, as understood by one of the most potent visual imaginations to have worked in Britain. In this enlarged edition, essays by leading scholars, Robert Hewison (who was one of Ruskin''s successors as Slade Professor of Fine Art at Oxford University), Tony Pinkney (Senior Lecturer at Lancaster University) and Robert Brownell (lecturer, stained glass maker and author of Marriage of Inconvenience) explain the importance of this book for Ruskin, for Morris and for us today.

A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2025 IN THE INDEPENDENT, GQ, NEW STATESMAN, FINANCIAL TIMES AND BBC CULTUREWhen the Going Was Good is Graydon Carter''s lively recounting of how he made his mark as one of society''s most talented editors and shapers of culture. Carter arrived in New York from Canada with little more than a suitcase, a failed literary magazine in his past and a keen sense of ambition. He landed a job at Time, went on to work at Life, co-founded Spy magazine and edited The New York Observer before catching the eye of Condé Nast chairman Si Newhouse, who tapped him to run Vanity Fair.With his inimitable voice and raconteur''s quip, Carter brings readers inside the drawing rooms of the great and not-always-good of America, Britain and Europe. He assembled one of the best-ever stables of writers and photographers under one roof, and here he re-creates in real time the steps he took to ensure that Vanity Fair during his 25-year run cemented its place as the epicentre of art, culture, business and politics. Charming, candid and brimming with humour, When the Going Was Good perfectly captures the last golden age of print magazines from the inside out.

From a spirit-haunted church in Western Ohio to an ancient Italian castle, from a freakish funhouse on the Jersey shore to a Connecticut cottage with a storybook façade that belies its spine-tingling contents: this collection of aspirational interiors will appeal to anyone who wishes to live in the luxury of Gothic darkness without sacrificing even an ounce of style. The Art of Gothic Living profiles 15 homes and their owners, chronicling their journeys to creating living spaces that reflect a philosophy steeped in the tenets of Gothic subculture--individuality, creativity, and a fascination with life's shadow side. The ways in which this manifests in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, and living rooms is as diverse as the homeowners in author Paul Gambino's intriguing book. How does one showcase a collection of medical models and religious iconography in a way that emphasizes its beauty (and allows space for entertaining)? How can a homeowner make the ghosts that linger in the halls a feature, not a bug? This engaging, beautifully designed treasure trove of dark delights answers plenty of the most practical questions while inspiring readers to new heights of decorative expression as they envision a Gothic home for themselves, wherever they may reside.
