        The End of the Desert

        by Said Khatibi

        On a nice fall day of 1988, Zakiya Zaghwani was found lying dead at the edge of the desert, giving way to a quest to discover the circumstances surrounding her death. While looking for whoever was involved in the death of the young singer, nearby residents discover bit by bit their involvement in many things other than the crime itself. ///The story takes place in a town near the desert. And as with Khatibi’s previous novels, this one is also marked by a tight plot, revolving around the murder of a singer who works in a hotel. This sets off a series of complex investigations that defy easy conclusions and invite doubt about the involvement of more than one character. /// Through the narrators of the novel, who also happen to be its protagonists, the author delves into the history of colonialism and the Algerian War of Independence and its successors, describing the circumstances of the story whose events unfold throughout the month. As such, the characters suspected of killing the singer are not only accused of a criminal offense, but are also concerned, as it appears, with the great legacy that the War of Independence left, from different aspects.///The novel looks back at a critical period in the modern history of Algeria that witnessed the largest socio-political crisis following its independence in 1988. While the story avoids the immediate circumstances of the war, it rather invokes the events leading up to it and tracks its impact on the social life, while capturing the daily life of vulnerable and marginalized groups. /// Nonetheless, those residents’ vulnerability does not necessarily mean they are innocent. As it appears, they are all involved in a crime that is laden with symbolism and hints at the status of women in a society shackled by a heavy legacy of a violent, wounded masculinity. This approach to addressing social issues reflects a longing to break loose from the stereotypical discourse that sets heroism in a pre-defined mold and reduces the truth to only one of its dimensions.

        Citizenship and gender politics in Georgian England

        by Matthew McCormack, Pamela Sharpe, Penny Summerfield, Lynn Abrams, Cordelia Beattie

        'Independence' was an important ideal for men in Georgian England. In this period, however, the word meant much more than simply the virtues of self-sufficiency and impartiality. Most people believed that obligations absolutely compromised freedom and conscience, whereas 'independence' was associated with manly virtue and physical vigour. Fundamentally, the political world was thought to consist of 'independent men', exercising their consciences and standing up for the general good. As such, Georgians thought about political action and masculine virtue very differently to the ways in which we do today. In study, newly available in paperback, Matthew McCormack establishes the links between the histories of masculinity and politics, highlighting the centrality of 'manly' ideals in the political world and - conversely - the role of politics in the operation of gender ideology. ;

        Territorial politics in Catalonia and Scotland

        Nations in flux

        by Paul Anderson

        Nations in flux explores the evolution of territorial politics in Catalonia and Scotland since 2010, offering an in-depth, comparative analysis of developments in both cases and drawing on interviews with political elites whilst providing a compelling snapshot of the growing relevance of nationalism in contemporary society and politics. Empirically, this book analyses the experiences and effects of referendums on independence, Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic, and examines some of the most pressing tensions within the existing territorial models. It highlights the need for further reform in both cases and identifies necessary changes to ensure the institutionalisation of more accommodative territorial models and thus, the continuation of political partnership between Catalonia and Spain, and Scotland and the UK. Overall, the book raises important questions about the accommodation of diversity in plurinational states in the twenty-first century.

        A Cool History of UkraineFrom Dinosaurs Till Now

        by Inna Kovalyshena

        Do you really think that history is boring and hard to under- stand? The heroes of this book thought so, too, at first. But just one interesting discovery pushed them to get to know history better — and to see that it can be fascinating, vibrant and so close to each of them. Four friends decide to explore the Ukrainian history and learn the truth: what kind of dino- saurs lived on our lands, who fought for Ukraine’s independ- ence, and why Ukrainians are the way they are. It turns out that history can be exciting and very important, even if it was back in the days of the dinosaurs. The subject of the book is the history of Ukraine from dinosaurs to today, which is interestingly and directly revealed. The main characters are children, in whom readers can recognize themselves. The text is written with humor and simple words, which makes the perception of information interactive. The book touches on important points of Ukraine's struggle for independence over many years.

        The Moscow Factor: US Policy toward Sovereign Ukraine and the Kremlin

        by Eugene M. Fishel

        24 February 2022 was not the beginning of Russia's war on Ukraine. Back in 2014, Russia illegally annexed Crimea from Ukraine, bolstered a separatist conflict in the Donbas region, and attacked Ukraine with units of its regular army and special forces. In each instance of Russian aggression, the U.S. response has often been criticized as inadequate, insufficient, or hesitant. The Moscow Factor: U.S. Policy toward Sovereign Ukraine and the Kremlin is a unique study that examines four key Ukraine-related policy decisions across two Republican and two Democratic U.S. administrations. Author Eugene M. Fishel asks whether, how, and under what circumstances Washington has considered Ukraine’s status as a sovereign nation in its decision-making regarding relations with Moscow. This study situates the stance of the United States toward Ukraine in the broader context of international relations. It fills an important lacuna in existing scholarship and policy discourse by focusing on the complex trilateral—rather than simply bilateral—dynamics among the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia, in 1991–2016. This book brings together for the first time documentary evidence and declassified materials dealing with policy deliberation, retrospective articles authored by former policymakers, and formal memoirs by erstwhile senior officials. The study is also supplemented by open-ended interviews with former and returning officials.

        Love, Dad

        by Valeriy Puzik

        He could have been showing his son the world, and just stayed by his side. Instead, he joined the army to protect his country in the Russo-Ukrainian war. Despite the exhausting days of combat, the main character doesn’t forget that he is a father, too. This book came to be as a conversation with the son who remains far away, yet always close — in his father’s heart. The book doesn’t include battle scenes or combat descriptions. Valeriy Puzik tries to demonstrate that even at the time of the most ruthless wars, a human remains at the center of everything. He leads readers through fragments of memories, reflections about today, and dreams about the future, creating his own battlefield reality. This book is about the here and now that thousands of soldiers experience during the war. It’s a raw nerve that leaves no space for feelings of indifference towards the world around. It’s a narrow path over the precipice that must be crossed to finally see the light — children, loved ones, and a peaceful homeland.

        by Gisela von Wysocki

        Die Geschichte der Annäherung an ein Faszinosum. Und die skurrilen, vergeblichen Versuche, seiner Anziehung zu entkommen. Wie ein magisches Geschehen erscheint der Salzburger Schülerin Hanna Werbezirk die Stimme eines Autors, der im Nachtstudio von Radio Wien zu hören ist. Es ist die des in Frankfurt am Main lebenden Philosophen, Soziologen und Komponisten Th. W. Adorno. Das unausgeführte »W« seines Namens, das für »Wiesengrund« steht, wird zur poetischen Einstiegsstelle in einen Roman, der sich an die Fersen der jungen Hanna Werbezirk heftet. Um Wiesengrund in natura zu erleben, geht sie als Philosophiestudentin nach Frankfurt am Main, wo sie in gänzlich neue Sphären hineingerät. Nicht nur in die politischen Turbulenzen der Zeit, sondern vor allem in jenes magische Feld, das sie selbst um den hazardeurhaften Denker errichtet hat. Über die Begegnungen mit ihm erzählt das Buch in einer Vielzahl von emblematischen Miniaturen. Und vom Denken eines Musikers, eines Poeten der Moderne, der die europäische Aufklärung auf seine Weise weiterschreibt.

        Monarchies and decolonisation in Asia

        by Robert Aldrich, Cindy McCreery

        With original case studies of a more than a dozen countries, Monarchies and decolonisation in Asia offers new perspectives on how both European monarchs who reigned over Asian colonies and Asian royal houses adapted to decolonisation. As colonies became independent states (and European countries, and other colonial powers, lost their overseas empires), monarchies faced the challenges of decolonisation, republicanism and radicalism. These studies place dynasties - both European and 'native' - at the centre of debate about decolonisation and the form of government of new states, from the sovereigns of Britain, the Netherlands and Japan to the maharajas of India, the sultans of the East Indies and the 'white rajahs' of Sarawak. It provides new understanding of the history of decolonisation and of the history of modern monarchy.

        Wiesengrund

        by Gisela Wysocki

        Sterne sind aus Plasma und Gas gemacht. Der Vater muss es wissen, ein weit über Salzburg hinaus bekannter Astrophysiker. Hanna Werbezirk hält sie trotzdem für ewig. Und hat wenig Lust, ihm als Assistentin in seinem astronomischen Labor zu dienen. Im Nachtstudio hört sie heimlich die Vortragsfolge eines Autors, dessen Name sie sich merken wird. Wiesengrund. Er könnte hilfreich sein, für sie die Frage nach der Beschaffenheit der Sterne zu klären. Seine Worte, wendig und wandlungsfähig, eröffnen ihr den Blick in eine Welt mit eigenen Gesetzen. Das Gefühl einer Komplizenschaft mit dem radiophonen Mitternachtsbesucher macht aus der Lektüre seiner Schriften ein von Herzklopfen begleitetes Ereignis. Als Studentin der Philosophie reist Hanna einige Jahre später nach Frankfurt am Main, um Wiesengrund in natura zu erleben – und gerät in gänzlich neue Sphären. Die politischen Turbulenzen der Zeit wirken auch in ihre neuen Lebensverhältnisse hinein. Vor allem aber steht sie jenem magischen Feld gegenüber, das sie selbst um den hazardeurhaften Denker errichtet hat. Wiesengrund ist der zweite Roman der Schriftstellerin, Essayistin und Theaterautorin Gisela von Wysocki nach ihrem gefeierten Romandebüt Wir machen Musik. Er handelt von der Annäherung an ein Faszinosum. Und beschreibt die komischen, skurrilen Versuche, aber auch die Vergeblichkeit, seinem beklemmenden Zauber zu entkommen.

        Transformation of the Agri-food System in Central and Eastern Europe and the New Independent States

        by Jill E Hobbs, William A Kerr, James D Gaisford

        This book offers a coherent perspective on the transition to a market-based agri-food system in the Central and Eastern European Countries and the New Independent States of the former Soviet Union. It provides a formal analysis of the entire food chain from farm inputs to final consumers including imports and exports. Major components of the agribusiness sector (inputs, farm-level marketing, processing, distribution and retailing) are all dealt with in separate chapters. In addition there is coverage of food security, multinationals, commercial law, finance and building market institutions. Theoretical chapters are devoted to problems concerning prices, transactions costs and bilateral monopoly. This theoretical discussion gives an in depth discussion of the difficulties underlying the process of transition to a market-based agri-food system and forms a consistent focus for the book as a whole. Overall, the book makes a highly original contribution to the literature on this topical subject and will be indispensable for agricultural and food economists, as well as general economists and others interested in the topic of economies in transition.
