Sinopse

"Civil Wars" explores the complex phenomenon of nations turning against themselves, examining the root causes and devastating consequences of internal conflicts throughout history. From the American Civil War to more recent crises in Rwanda and Syria, the book analyzes how political instability, socioeconomic disparities, and ideological clashes converge to ignite these conflicts. It highlights the critical role of state failure and elite manipulation in escalating tensions, emphasizing the importance of understanding early warning signs to prevent future outbreaks of violence.

 
A key insight is that civil wars are not random, but stem from specific historical, social, and political conditions, including legacies of colonialism and Cold War proxy conflicts. The book also delves into the immense human cost, detailing displacement, famine, and psychological trauma suffered by civilian populations.

 
It progresses by introducing key concepts, presenting detailed case studies, and analyzing the role of international actors and challenges of post-conflict peacebuilding. By drawing on diverse sources and offering a multidisciplinary perspective, "Civil Wars" provides a balanced account of these complex events, offering valuable insights for policymakers, scholars, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the forces driving internal conflict across the globe.

    Mass Supervision - Probation...

    We've heard a lot in recent years about the nearly 2.1 million people incarcerated in American prisons and jails. But what about the approximately four million more who are on probation and parole—monitored by the state at great expense and at risk of being sent to prison at the whim of a probation or parole officer for the least imaginable infraction? 
     
     
     
    Vincent Schiraldi was New York City probation commissioner under Mayor Bloomberg, supervising a system charged with monitoring 30,000 people on a daily basis. In Mass Supervision, he combines firsthand experience with deep research on the inadequately explored practices of probation and parole, to illustrate how these forms of state supervision have strayed from their original goal of providing constructive and rehabilitative alternatives to prison. They have become instead, Schiraldi argues, a "recidivism trap" for people trying to lead productive lives in the wake of a criminal conviction. 
     
     
     
    Schiraldi offers the first full and up-to-date account of these two key aspects of our criminal justice system, showing that these practices increase incarceration, have little impact on crime rates, and needlessly disrupt countless lives. Ultimately, he argues that they should be dramatically downsized or even abolished completely.

    The 2024 Israeli-Palestinian...

    The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the most complex and enduring disputes in modern history. Rooted in competing nationalist aspirations, territorial claims, and historical grievances, the conflict has shaped the Middle East and drawn international attention for over a century. To understand the events of 2024, it is essential to examine the historical context that underpins this struggle. 
      
    The origins of the conflict can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, during the rise of nationalist movements among both Jews and Arabs. For Jews, Zionism emerged as a response to widespread anti-Semitism and sought the establishment of a homeland in Palestine, which was then part of the Ottoman Empire. For Arabs, the decline of Ottoman rule and growing European influence spurred their own nationalist aspirations, with Palestine viewed as integral to a future Arab state. 
      
    Following World War I, Britain gained control of Palestine under a League of Nations mandate, which complicated the situation. The 1917 Balfour Declaration expressed British support for a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine, fueling Jewish immigration to the region. However, this increased tensions with the Arab population, who viewed the declaration as a betrayal of their aspirations for self-determination. Clashes between Jewish and Arab communities became more frequent in the 1920s and 1930s, setting the stage for further conflict.

This highly original book, which is one of the classic works of existentialism, combines elements of the essay and the novel as a way of transmitting the author's philosophical ideas.
