        Ein Reader

        by Daniel Loick, Vanessa E. Thompson

        »Abolitionismus« bezeichnet sowohl einen theoretischen Ansatz als auch eine politische und soziale Bewegung, die sich für die Überwindung staatlicher Gewaltinstitutionen wie Gefängnis und Polizei einsetzt. In der Tradition des Kampfes gegen die Versklavung Schwarzer Menschen betonen Abolitionist:innen die rassistische Geschichte staatlicher Gewaltapparate und ihre Komplizenschaft mit Formen kapitalistischer Ausbeutung und patriarchaler Unterdrückung. Dieser Band macht erstmals die wichtigsten Stimmen dieser internationalen Diskussion in deutscher Sprache zugänglich. Mit Texten u. a. von Angela Davis, Michel Foucault, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Ruth Wilson Gilmore, Amna Akbar, Joy James, Klaus Günther, Assa Traoré, Geoffroy de Lagasnerie, Mimi E. Kim, Sarah Lamble, Robyn Maynard und Alex Vitale.

        Plant Pest Risk Analysis

        Concepts and Application

        by Stephanie Bloem, Robert Griffin, Lottie Erikson, Alison Neeley, Kenneth Bloem, Anthony Koop. Edited by Christina Devorshak.

        Pest risk analysis is an evolving and dynamic field. It informs decisions for regulatory plant protection, from domestic activities such as prioritizing pests for surveillance to making quarantine decisions regarding the importation of products. This text provides a solid foundation in pest risk analysis and its application to regulatory plant protection. Basic methods for pest risk analysis are addressed, including how they can be used to solve real life problems in the context of national and international rules, regulations, requirements, laws and agreements. Written by practicing risk analysts, the text is enhanced with examples of methods and applications, many of which are based on real analyses performed by plant protection organizations. Understanding of basic tools and methods is encouraged to enable the reader to prepare, review and develop scientifically sound and technically defensible pest risk analyses. This is an essential resource for students in agricultural sciences, and regulatory plant protection professionals wishing to learn about pest risk analysis: why we do it, how it's done, and what it requires.

        Vivien Leigh

        Actress and icon

        by Kate Dorney, Maggie B. Gale

        This edited volume provides new readings of the life and career of iconic actress Vivien Leigh (1913-67), written by experts from theatre and film studies and curators from the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. The collection uses newly accessible family archives to explore the intensely complex relationship between Vivien Leigh's approach to the craft of acting for stage and screen, and how she shaped, developed and projected her public persona as one of the most talked about and photographed actresses of her era. With key contributors from the UK, France and the US, chapters range from analyses of her work on stage and screen to her collaborations with designers and photographers, an analysis of her fan base, her interior designs and the 'public ownership' of Leigh's celebrity status during her lifetime and beyond.

        On the Move

        by Art studio Agrafka (Authors), Art studio Agrafka (Illustrators)

        The universe is always on the move: Nothing in it remains completely at rest. Movement is natural: The Earth, the water on it, the atmosphere, the continents, and all living organisms exist in a state of constant motion. We walk, run, jump, crawl, swim, and fly. We travel. This book is about movement and travel—not only by people, but also that of animals, plants, the wind, water, and our planet. It describes journeys for the purpose of trade and commerce, journeys for the purpose of pleasure and repose or for survival, as well as scientific expeditions and pilgrimages. It’s about migrations, maps, navigation, and, finally, about finding your own path. Travellers often hear questions associated with "where" and "where from:" "Where are you going?", "Where are you from?" This book is a visual and intellectual expedition through thousands of years of movement, in search of answers to these as well as many other questions related to movement.       From 6 to 9 years, 2896 words Rightsholders: Ivan Fedechko,  ivan.fedechko@starlev.com.ua
