Poslední ghetto je srozumitelným, poutavým i bolestným čtením o tom, jak vypadal život vězňů v Terezíně. Každodennost, kterou Hájková čtenáři předkládá, nemá podobu sentimentalizující fotografické momentky. Nejedná se o únik z kruté reality života v ghettu do poslední bašty nezkaleného lidství. Autorka nabízí pohled do mnohovrstevnaté minulosti, jakési minulé přítomnosti, kde je základní charakteristikou lidí i ve velice vypjatých situacích jejich vlastní jednání. Pečlivá práce s obrovským množstvím osobních svědectví a dokumentů tvoří základní kámen úspěchu této knihy. A ačkoli Hájková čtenáři předkládá vrchovatou míru výpovědí, jmen a situací, poměrně hladce sleduje hlavní výkladovou linku. Ukázky vzpomínek nemají povahu pouhého vršení důkazů, pod jejichž tíhou by měl čtenář rezignovat na vlastní uvažování. Přínos Posledního ghetta se ovšem nevyčerpává s novým výkladem historie Terezína. Hájková v knize opakovaně konstatuje, že její práci lze číst i jako ukázku, jak analyzovat vězeňská společenství, či dokonce společnosti v extrémních podmínkách. Dr Anna Hájková je associate professor na britské University of Warwick. Vystudovala dějiny, sociologii a anglistiku na Humboldtově univerzitě v Berlíně a obdržela doktorát na University of Toronto v Kanadě. Rukopis knihy Poslední ghetto byl vyznamenán cenami Herberta Steinera a Irmy Rosenbergové. Hájková publikuje v českých, německých, britských, amerických a izraelských novinách.

Edice dvou rodinných deníků: Jany Lebovič, žid a odbojář skupiny Přehledy žijící v ilegalitě, si vedl deník mezi březnem a srpnem 1944, kdy byl spolu s částí skupiny zatčen. V téže době byla za podporu skupiny deportována do koncentračního tábora také Pavla Hájková, matka Janyho kamaráda Miloše Hájka. Ta si pořizovala deníkové záznamy po osvobození během návratu domů přes zničené Německo a v prvých poválečných měsících. Pro Leboviče i Hájkovou představovalo psaní především způsob komunikace s nepřítomným partnerem, od něhož je oddělili nacisté. Tyto jedinečné dokumenty z bezprostřední zkušenosti vypovídají o holokaustu, odboji a koncentračních táborech. Edici doprovází rámující úvod a doprovodné texty Pavliných vnuků a Janyho neteře.

Terezín, as it was known in Czech, or Theresienstadt as it was known in German, was operated by the Nazis between November 1941 and May 1945 as a transit ghetto for Central and Western European Jews before their deportation for murder in the East. Terezín was the last ghetto to be liberated, one day after the end of World War II.The Last Ghetto is the first in-depth analytical history of a prison society during the Holocaust. Rather than depict the prison society which existed within the ghetto as an exceptional one, unique in kind and not understandable by normal analytical methods, Anna Hájková argues that such prison societies that developed during the Holocaust are best understood as simply other instances of the societies human beings create under normal circumstances. Challenging conventional claims of Holocaust exceptionalism, Hájková insists instead that we ought to view the Holocaust with the same analytical tools as other historical events. The prison society of Terezín produced its own social hierarchies under which seemingly small differences among prisoners (of age, ethnicity, or previous occupation) could determine whether one ultimately lived or died. During the three and a half years of the camp''s existence, prisoners created their own ... Unknown localization key: "more"

With new contributions by Latinx scholar Ed Morales and adapter Rebecca Stefoff based on newly available scholarship, here is a new and revised edition of Howard Zinn''s seminal text, A Young People''s History of the United States. A new chapter, introduction, conclusion and further updates throughout the book expand our understanding of Latinx history in the US through the political movements and cultural contributions of Latino Americans, as well as expanded coverage of Native history and Asian American activism. This now-classic work of radical and activist US history gives readers the viewpoints of workers, slaves, immigrants, women, Native Americans, and others whose stories, and their impact, are rarely included in books for young people. Beginning with a look at Christopher Columbus''s arrival through the eyes of the Arawak Indians, then leading the reader through the struggles for worker''s rights, women''s rights, and civil rights during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and ending with the recent protests against continued American imperialism, Howard Zinn presents a radical new way of understanding America''s history. In so doing, he reminds readers that America''s true greatness is shaped by our dissident voices, not our military generals.

The wave of uprisings and revolutions that swept the Middle East and North Africa between 2010 and 2012 were most vividly transmitted throughout the world not by television or even social media, but in short videos produced by the participants themselves and circulated anonymously on the internet.In The People Are Not An Image, Snowdon explores this radical shift in revolutionary self-representation, showing that the political consequences of these videos cannot be located without reference to their aesthetic form. Looking at videos from Tunisia, Bahrain, Syria, Libya, and Egypt, Snowdon attends closely to the circumstances of both their production and circulation, drawing on a wide range of historical and theoretical material, to discover what they can tell us about the potential for revolution in our time and the possibilities of video as a genuinely decentralized and vernacular medium.

Queer historie holokaustu, tedy otázka stejnopohlavní touhy obětí holokaustu, zůstávala donedávna bílým místem historického bádání. Důvodem je obecně rozšířená homofobie obětí i pozůstalých, která vedla k tomu, že hlasy těchto lidí byly z archivů z velké části vymazávány. Kniha Anny Hájkové nabízí první pokus o zachycení historie těchto umlčených hlasů. Ve třech kapitolách: úvodu do queer touhy v době holokaustu, dramatickém příběhu pražské odbojářky Ireny Millerové a pěti osudech queer židovských teenagerů včetně Anne Frankové nabízí kniha Lidé bez historie jsou prach fundovaný vhled do dlouho utajované historie, která mění naše porozumění dějinám holokaustu.

In this monumental book, Chris Harman achieves the impossible—a gripping history of the planet from the perspective of the struggling people throughout the ages.From earliest human society to the Holy Roman Empire, from the Middle Ages to the Enlightenment, from the Industrial Revolution to the end of the millennium, Chris Harman provides a brilliant and comprehensive history of the planet. Eschewing the standard histories of ‘Great Men,’ of dates and kings, Harman offers a groundbreaking counter-history, a breathtaking sweep across the centuries in the tradition of ‘history from below.’ In a fiery narrative, he shows how ordinary men and women were involved in creating and changing society and how conflict between classes was often at the core of these changes. While many pundits see the victory of capitalism as now safely secured, Harman explains the rise and fall of societies and civilizations throughout the ages and demonstrates that history never ends. This magisterial study is essential reading for anyone interested in how society has changed and developed and the possibilities for further radical change.

Everything we think we know about populism is wrong. Donald Trump. Brexit. European right-wing extremists. All have been accused of populism. But what does this often thrown about, yet generally misunderstood, term actually mean?The real story of populism is an account of enlightenment and liberation; the story of democracy itself, of its promise of a decent life for us all. Here, acclaimed political commentator Thomas Frank takes us from the emergence of the radical left-wing US Populist Party in the 1890s, through the triumphs of reformers under Roosevelt and Truman, to the present day, reminding us how much we owe to the populist ethos. He pummels the elites, revisits the movement’s provocative politics, and declares true populism to be the language of promise and optimism. People Without Power is a ringing affirmation of a movement that, Frank shows us, is not the problem of our times, but the solution.

For more than a millennium, Polynesians have occupied the remotest islands in the Pacific Ocean, a vast triangle stretching from Hawaii to New Zealand to Easter Island. Until the arrival of European explorers they were the only people to have ever lived there. Both the most closely related and the most widely dispersed people in the world before the era of mass migration, Polynesians can trace their roots to a group of epic voyagers who ventured out into the unknown in one of the greatest adventures in human history.How did the earliest Polynesians find and colonise these far-flung islands? How did a people without writing or metal tools conquer the largest ocean in the world? This conundrum, which came to be known as the Problem of Polynesian Origins, emerged in the eighteenth century as one of the great geographical mysteries of mankind.For Christina Thompson, this mystery is personal: her Maori husband and their sons descend directly from these ancient navigators. In Sea People, Thompson explores the fascinating story of these ancestors, as well as those of the many sailors, linguists, archaeologists, folklorists, biologists and geographers who have puzzled over this history for three hundred years. A masterful mix of history, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

''Not only our most distinguished historian but also one of the most valuable contributors to historical theory'' SpectatorIn answering the question, ''what is history?'', E. H. Carr''s acclaimed and influential bestseller shows that the facts of history are simply those which the historian selects for scrutiny. His fluent and hugely wide-ranging account of the nature of history and the role of the historian argues that all history is to some degree subjective, written by individuals who are above all people of their own time. ''Lively and controversial, full of wit and humour, E. H. Carr''s What Is History? played a central role in the historiographical revolution in the 1960s'' Richard J. EvansWith an introduction by Richard J. Evans, author of the Third Reich trilogy.
