As a response to the widespread social, economic and ecological malaise that is a consequence of the expansion of modernity, Fabricio Pereira da Silva gives voice to a quest that has long been a banner of the left: the yearning for a fairer, more equitable way of life, free from the modern values of individualism, exploitation and inconsequential and disproportionate economic growth, based on the recovery and re-reading of pre-capitalist ways of life. This book is driven by the urgency of a utopia that recovers the ideas of communality gestated in the global periphery to inspire another kind of future. In Search of Community presents a list of theoretical perspectives created in the so-called Global South, with the aim of overcoming a “monoculture of knowledge”. Fabricio Pereira da Silva analyzes Mariátegui's Indo-American socialism, the concepts of negritude and ubuntu, 20th century African socialisms, the idea of Good Living (sumak kawsay/suma qamaña) and Bhutan's gross internal happiness. By “illustrating the richness of proposals from the periphery”, the author offers us other theoretical resources, capable of dealing with the “crisis of modernity, the crisis of Western Marxism and socialist projects in a modernist key”.

Backed by Brazil's wealthy agribusiness groups, a growing evangelical movement, and an emboldened military and police force, Jair Bolsonaro took office in 2019. Driven by the former army captain's brand of controversial, aggressive rhetoric, the divisive presidential campaign saw fake news and misinformation shared with Bolsonaro's tens of millions of social media followers. Bolsonaro promised simple solutions to Brazil's rising violent crime, falling living standards and widespread corruption, but what has emerged is Latin America's most right-wing president since the military dictatorships of the 1970s. Famous for his racist, homophobic and sexist beliefs and his disregard for human rights, the so-called 'Trump of the Tropics' has established a reputation based on his polemical, sensationalist statements. Written by a journalist with decades of experience in the field, Beef, Bible and bullets is a compelling account of the origins of Brazil's unique brand of right-wing populism. Lapper offers the first major assessment of the Bolsonaro government and the growing tensions between extremist and moderate conservatives.

Es gibt Zeiten, da liegt unser Leben „auf Eis“ und wir fühlen uns wie aus der Welt gefallen. Durch eine Krankheit oder den Verlust eines geliebten Menschen, durch Arbeitslosigkeit. Auch ein freudiges Ereignis wie die Geburt eines Kindes kann uns aus dem Gleichgewicht bringen. Katherine May nennt diese Zeiten des Rückzugs, die ihr selbst nur allzu vertraut sind, »Winter«. Und wie auch in der winterlichen Kälte alles ruht, um Kraft für den Frühling zu sammeln, so gibt May sich dem „Überwintern“ hin. Sie reist nach Tromsø zu den Polarlichtern, schwimmt im eisigen Meer, schwitzt in der Sauna und feiert das Winterfest Santa Lucia. Sie besinnt sich auf das Wesentliche und gibt sich der Ruhe und inneren Einkehr hin – bis sie sich wieder bereit fühlt, mit neuer Energie weiterzumachen. Wir können uns unsere Winter nicht aussuchen. Aber wie wir überwintern, schon. Ein wunderbares Buch über die heilsame Kraft des Innehaltens.
