Políticas y narrativas del cuerpo 2

Lucía Caminada, Fernando Gonçalves

Questo libro raccoglie riflessioni e analisi sul corpo a partire da diverse discipline per pensare trasversalmente le esperienze delle corporeità nelle loro concrezioni materiali e simboliche, suscitando un dialogo critico sulle loro capacità di generare pratiche, discorsi e poetiche diverse, dissidenti e complesse oggi.
In questa seconda edizione si punta a continuare a costruire, attraverso una raccolta biennale, la categoria della corporeità in dialogo con le arti, le scienze sociali e umane. È notevole come la corporeità e le sue politiche e narrazioni diventino malleabili, flessibili e vulnerabili agli sguardi teorici emergenti che ci fanno riflettere permanentemente e pensare ad una mobilità categorica.

Rare Recording of Richard...

Richard Wurmbrand

Richard Wurmbrand (March 24, 1909 - February 17, 2001) was a Romanian Christian minister of Jewish descent. He was a youth during a time of anti-Semitic activity in Romania, but it was later, after becoming a believer in Jesus Christ as Messiah, and daring to publicly say that Communism and Christianity were not compatible, that he experienced imprisonment and torture for his beliefs. After serving five years of a second prison sentence, he was ransomed for $10,000. After spending time in Norway and England, he and his wife Sabina, who had also been imprisoned, emigrated to America and dedicated the rest of their lives to publicizing and helping Christians who are persecuted for their beliefs. He wrote more than eighteen books, translated into more than 60 languages, the most widely known being "Tortured for Christ." He founded the international organization, Voice Of The Martyrs, which aids Christians around the world who are persecuted for their faith.

A Measure Short of War - A Brief...

William C. Wohlforth, Jill Kastner

In 2016, the United States was stunned by evidence of Russian meddling in the US presidential elections. But it shouldn't have been. Subversion—domestic interference to undermine or manipulate a rival—is as old as statecraft itself. The basic idea would have been familiar to Sun Tzu, Thucydides, Elizabeth I, or Bismarck. 
 
 
 
It came as a surprise in 2016 because the sole superpower had fallen asleep at the wheel. But what's really new? Have we entered a new age of vulnerability? To answer these questions, and to protect ourselves against future subversion, we need a clear-eyed understanding of what it is and how it works. 
 
 
 
In A Measure Short of War, Jill Kastner and William C. Wohlforth provide just that, taking the listener on a compelling ride through the history of subversion, exploring two thousand years of mischief and manipulation to illustrate subversion's allure, its operational possibilities, and the means for fighting back against it. With vivid examples from the ancient world, the great-power rivalries of the nineteenth century, epic Cold War struggles, and more, A Measure Short of War shows how prior technological revolutions opened up new avenues for subversion, and how some democracies have been fatally weakened by foreign subverters while others have artfully defended themselves—and their democratic principles.
