Sinopsis

Identity Shift Rates explores the intriguing phenomenon of significantly higher LGBTQ+ identification rates among younger generations. It argues that increased visibility, acceptance, and regional variations in social attitudes drive these generational shifts. The book examines how these factors influence individuals' willingness to self-identify, highlighting the intersection of personal identity and broader societal changes. It presents a detailed historical context of LGBTQ+ rights and acceptance, establishing a baseline for understanding contemporary trends.

The book uses U.S. Census data, large-scale surveys, and regional studies, employing statistical methods and qualitative insights to uncover trends and disparities. A unique aspect is its comparative approach, examining LGBTQ+ identification rates across different regions and demographic groups. This spatial analysis identifies social and cultural contexts that either promote or inhibit self-identification. For example, increased acceptance in certain regions correlates with higher rates of LGBTQ+ identification, illustrating how social attitudes impact identity expression.

Structured in three parts, Identity Shift Rates begins with core concepts of identity formation, then examines empirical evidence, and concludes by synthesizing findings into a comprehensive model. It bridges sociology, psychology, and demography, offering a complete picture of the factors influencing LGBTQ+ identity. The book's findings have practical implications for social policy, community resources, and future research directions.

The Great Épinal Escape - Indian...

Ghee Bowman

On 11 May 1944, just four weeks before D-Day, sixty-seven American heavy bombers dropped 168 tons of bombs on the sunlit French town of Épinal on the Moselle river. Unbeknownst to the aircrew of the 'Mighty Eighth', this was the temporary home of over 3,000 Indian prisoners of war – and these bombs had just taken down the walls.
The escapees took food and clothes and set off for the border. If they could make it to Switzerland, neutral territory, they would be safe. But between them and their goal were thousands of Nazis, collaborators and over 100km of French countryside.
The Great Épinal Escape is the incredible story of the most successful escape of the Second World War. It is the story of how, during a period showcasing the worst of humanity – a period marked by brutality, bloodlust and fascism – ordinary people were able to demonstrate the best of humanity: resilience, support and a warm welcome. Ultimately, it is a story of hope.

Selling Social Justice - Why the...

Jennifer C. Pan

The national racial reckoning that began in 2020 promised to radically restructure American society from the bottom up. But five years on, it has mainly served to strengthen the ruling class and deliver the rich an opportunity to rehabilitate a profoundly unequal economic order at a moment when the stability of the system and the public's trust in it are deteriorating. 
 
 
 
Corporations have used antiracism to consolidate their political power and evade government regulation. Employers have surveilled and undermined workers through counterproductive diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings. Affluent professionals and Democratic politicians have exacerbated a stark class divide by pushing half-baked "racial equity" policies that come at the expense of the majority of working people. And the right has reacted to these developments by stoking a toxic culture war against "wokeness" that serves as a distraction from the increasing economic hardship faced by Americans of all races. 
 
 
 
Selling Social Justice investigates the rise and spread of contemporary antiracist ideology and shows how the rich came to embrace this particular form of justice. In this provocative account, Jennifer C. Pan explores why, in a twenty-first-century economy of increasing scarcity, antiracism is the wrong frame for understanding and fighting inequality.

Irish Fairy Forts - Portals to...

Jo Kerrigan

Far more than just a faint echo of the past, Ireland's fairy forts are still vibrantly alive. 
The traditions connected to them are so powerful that, even today, people rarely interfere with Irish fairy forts or fairy trees. They aren't built on; roads curve around them; farmers don't plough over them 
The most numerous ancient remains in Ireland today, numbering up to 50,000 or more, these enigmatic mounds and grassy banks seem to call out to us from an earlier time. So, what are they, who built them and what were they for? And how have so many survived for so long?
With evocative photographs by Richard Mills, master folklorist Jo Kerrigan explores the origins of these mysterious circular structures: the stories and legends, the history and archaeology, the living traditions and practices connected to them. And reminds us of the dangers of disturbing the ancient spirits dwelling beneath.
