Sinopsis

Activism Growth explores the pivotal role of women in shaping global activism and social movements throughout history. It highlights how women's activism, often overlooked, has been crucial in driving social, political, and economic change. The book reveals that women's unique approaches, marked by collaboration and empathy, have been instrumental in achieving significant social progress. For instance, their focus on intersectional issues acknowledges the complex interplay of race, class, and gender in shaping experiences and activism.

 
The book begins by establishing key concepts and theoretical frameworks before delving into specific case studies of women-led movements across diverse regions and eras. These case studies are thematically organized, encompassing the fight for suffrage and political rights, the pursuit of economic justice and labor rights, and the advocacy for peace and environmental sustainability.

 
By examining archival documents, oral histories, and personal accounts, Activism Growth offers a comprehensive analysis of women's leadership and their lasting impact on the pursuit of equality.

    I don't know who I am anymore

    Human beings have always questioned their identity in an attempt to understand themselves better and to develop. With the development of our societies and especially the new technological revolutions, the search for the self has become more perilous and dangerous because it is less controlled.
    In this essay, Thierry Delcourt discusses the mechanisms at play that undermine our identity. Based on a clinical examination of the teenagers and young adults he follows on a daily basis, he questions our psyche in the face of societal upheavals: Are we going to become virtual, to the point of criminalizing all non-consensual contact and, in fact, reducing social empathy? What are the neuropsychic consequences of AI? What are the consequences of the war in Ukraine and Palestine on our identity? What are the disorders related to contact with YouTubers, blockbusters and manga? The disorders related to the questioning of gender and sexuality? To the radicalization of the political debate, or even to the seizure of power by minorities? To drug use, which is increasing year on year? The search for altered states of consciousness and paranormal phenomena, two very strong trends among young people at the moment?
    These disorders affect us all at one time or another in our lives, and particularly in the fragile moments of our development, such as for young people confronted with the world, its constraints and its turmoil.
    Secondly, the psychiatrist provides us with avenues for constructing our identity. “The question is not ‘things were better before’, but 'what do we do with the new social, political and economic order and the transformation of the psyche? How can we resist, describe, criticize, get involved, choose, invent, subvert, play, intervene and impose in order to construct our identity properly?

    ""A true-crime masterpiece."" —Don Winslow 
    A Mystery Writers of America Edgar Award Finalist (Best Fact Crime) 
    From the FBI’s former assistant director, a shocking journey to the dark side of America’s highways, revealing the FBI Highway Serial Killings Initiative’s hunt for the long-haul truckers behind an astonishing 850 murders–and counting. 
    In 2004, the FBI was tipped off to a gruesome pattern of unsolved murders along American roadways. Today at least 850 homicides have been linked to a solitary breed of predators: long-haul truck drivers. They have been given names like the “Truck Stop Killer,” who rigged a traveling torture chamber in the rear of his truck and is suspected to have killed fifty women, and “The Interstate Strangler,” who once answered a phone call from his mother while killing one of his dozen victims. The crisis was such that the FBI opened a special unit, the Highway Serial Killings Initiative. In many cases, the victims—often at-risk women—are picked up at truck stops in one jurisdiction, sexually assaulted and murdered in another, and dumped along a highway in a third place. The transient nature of the offenders and multiple jurisdictions involved make these cases incredibly difficult to solve. 
    Based on his own on-the-ground research and drawing on his twenty-five-year career as an FBI special agent, Frank Figliuzzi investigates the most terrifying cases. He also rides in a big-rig with a long-haul trucker for thousands of miles, gaining an intimate understanding of the life and habits of drivers and their roadside culture. And he interviews the courageous trafficked victims of these crimes, and their inspiring efforts to now help others avoid similar fates. 
    Long Haul is a gripping exploration of a violent, disordered world hiding in plain sight, and the heroes racing to end the horror. It will forever unsettle how you travel on the road.

    The Impeachment Power - The Law...

    We are witnessing an unprecedented moment in American politics in which impeachments are increasingly common. In today's partisan environment, it is more vital than ever that government officials, scholars, and ordinary citizens understand what an impeachment can reasonably be expected to accomplish. In this incisive and accessible book, Keith Whittington provides needed clarity on the constitutional power of impeachment. 
     
     
     
    Drawing insights from American and British history, congressional practice, and the language of the Constitution itself, Whittington shows how impeachment is a tool for checking abuses of elective office and defending constitutional norms. While we have come to associate impeachment with the presidency, it can be used to remedy gross misconduct by an array of officers of the federal government. Whittington cautions against abusing this immense and consequential power to settle political scores, demonstrating how it undermines the independence of the branches and makes Congress the seat of political power. 
     
     
     
    A must-listen for the informed citizen, The Impeachment Power argues that impeachment is ultimately a political instrument and gives us the perspective we need to recognize when an impeachment might be useful and when we are better served by looking for alternative ways to solve our political problems.
