Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2021The bonds of family
Slavery, commerce and culture in the British Atlantic world
by Katie Donington
Moving between Britain and Jamaica The bonds of family reconstructs the world of commerce, consumption and cultivation sustained through an extended engagement with the business of slavery. Transatlantic slavery was both shaping of and shaped by the dynamic networks of family that established Britain's Caribbean empire. Tracing the activities of a single extended family - the Hibberts - this book explores how slavery impacted on the social, cultural, economic and political landscape of Britain. It is a history of trade, colonisation, enrichment and the tangled web of relations that gave meaning to the transatlantic world. The Hibberts's trans-generational story imbricates the personal and the political, the private and the public, the local and the global. It is both the intimate narrative of a family and an analytical frame through which to explore Britain's history and legacies of slavery.

THE POLITICS OF HATE – A Piercing Insight into American Politics
by HUGO N. GERSTL
America is being systematically destroyed – not by terrorists from without, but by vested interests from within! It’s being destroyed by politicians, talk show hosts, media moguls, and populist rabble rousers who seek to preserve their “territory” at any cost – by obstructing the passage of beneficial laws, by scandalous lies and accusations, by negative campaigning, and by gratuitous insults. These “saviors” pose absolutely no constructive ideas of their own to resolve the morass in which our country now finds itself. The politicians think no further than getting themselves elected or re-elected. The lure of $100,000 in lecture fees is a powerful aphrodisiac. The lure of power is an even greater aphrodisiac. Politicians, fearmongers, “talking heads,” and captains of industry revel in their fame, their glory, and their self-styled wisdom when the country is in greater debt than any other nation in history, and when we are more and more quickly slipping toward becoming a third world nation each year. If the public starts putting two and two together, the answer should come out “four.” But so far, the “average” American can still be led to believe that 2+2 equals whatever number the spin masters want to make it. What is even worse, more than 40% of Americans are buying into the politics of fear, dissension, and abuse without stopping for even a moment to consider exactly what these political hatemongers are offering in exchange for turning one faction out and securing the benefits of power for themselves. But regardless of political infighting or outfighting, what we are doing is akin to two fleas fighting over who owns the dog. We don’t seem to realize that we have run out of time and money; that we no longer have the luxury of political gamesmanship and needless, stupid bickering. While this timely book points the finger at who’s to blame, it also goes one step further and tells how America, the most powerful nation on earth, can take back control of its destiny and cure its own disease! HUGO N. GERSTL earned a degree in political science and history at UCLA, then went on to graduate from the UCLA School of Law. He turned down an invitation to run for Congress on the Republican ticket as it meant running against his friend and fellow-lawyer, Leon Panetta, who was just finishing his first term in Congress. Gerstl has been a nationally known trial lawyer for forty-six years and remains eternally optimistic about the resilience of the American people. An English eBook Edition was published in fall 2012 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons INC., C.A. 454 pages, 15x22.5cm

September 2021Mutter Vater Land
by Akın Emanuel Şipal
Hundert Jahre Familiengeschichte zwischen Deutschland und der Türkei.Der Autor lässt vier Generationen und ihre Anekdoten, Tiraden, Träume, Rachefantasien aufeinanderprallen, darin verstrickt die Erzählerfigur selbst, Alter Ego. Das Erinnern findet seine formale Struktur in a-chronologisch springenden Jahreszahlen, die blitzlichtartig Familienszenen vor dem Hintergrund gesellschaftlicher Umbrüche der Vergangenheit, der Gegenwart und der Zukunft verhandeln. Dabei wiederholt sich die generationenübergreifende Erfahrung, auf von Außen zugeschriebene Bilder festgelegt zu werden. Akın Emanuel Şipal sprengt diese Zuschreibungen sprachlich und gedanklich auf und lotet die Grenzen von Fiktion und Autobiografie dialogisch neu aus. »OMA: Ich schwöre, dass es Türken waren ALTER EGO: Was hättest du davon, wenn es Türken gewesen wären?«
