Summary

At the beginning of the 21st century, the EU is facing deep political, social, and economic changes. The benefit of supranational organization is no longer obvious to European citizens and questions of legitimacy have accompanied the EU's development over the last decades. Regions - albeit often deemed »obsolete« - present themselves as stable and reliable partners in this turbulent environment: in being important objects of identification to their citizens, but also relevant political and legal entities in the EU's multilevel governance system. This edited volume asks about the role of regions and regional identity in a European Union that is perhaps struggling more than ever about its future.

    Inhabitants of Medellín, Colombia, suffered from the war-like violence perpetrated by drug cartels and other actors in the 1980s and 1990s. Thousands died, including innocent civilians, judges, and journalists, many more were injured and suffered psychological trauma. Three decades later, however, transnational media companies such as Netflix have transformed the traumatic memories into entertainment while the main perpetrator, Pablo Escobar, became a 
    recognizable brand name. 
     
     
     
    Victimhood, Memory, and Consumerism: Profiting from Pablo documents the story of violence inflicted on Medellín, and critically examines the status of its victims. Drawing on unique empirical material, the book addresses the impact of commercial exploitation of the city's violent past on the victims of mass drug violence and on the present nature of the city. 
     
      
     
    Victimhood, Memory, and Consumerism offers a poignant critique of the role of the global market economy in the unequal distribution of narrative power among those engaged in processes of collective memory construction. A thoroughly compelling listen, this volume will appeal internationally to academics in criminology and victimology, as well as those interested in critical perspectives on Netflix, commercialism, and Colombian history.

    This program is read by the author."As a mature observer of the human condition, Marsh has audible serenity that makes listeners curious about how his story ends." - AudioFile MagazineFrom the bestselling neurosurgeon and author of Do No Harm, comes Henry Marsh's And Finally, an unflinching and deeply personal exploration of death, life and neuroscience.As a retired brain surgeon, Henry Marsh thought he understood illness, but he was unprepared for the impact of his diagnosis of advanced cancer. And Finally explores what happens when someone who has spent a lifetime on the frontline of life and death finds himself contemplating what might be his own death sentence.As he navigates the bewildering transition from doctor to patient, he is haunted by past failures and projects yet to be completed, and frustrated by the inconveniences of illness and old age. But he is also more entranced than ever by the mysteries of science and the brain, the beauty of the natural world and his love for his family. Elegiac, candid, luminous and poignant, And Finally is ultimately not so much an audiobook about death, but an audiobook about life and what matters in the end.

    Love, Demystified – Feel Like Getting Hot Under the Sheets? New Book Shares Why Sex is Always on Our Minds 
    With sex holding such a prominent place in the human experience, Dr Jasmine's new book – Love, Demystified, takes readers on a unique journey into better understanding that there's so much more to love than what happens under the sheets, in the back of the car, or on the kitchen table. You will learn all about the timeless, and modern love mysteries: the soulmate, the muse, the dark passion, the one night stand, love as a drug and so much more. 
    When you are "vibing" with someone, you could feel great or you might sense that they are toxic, right? But did you know, that the 'vibes', or 'vibrations', are the actual tangible essence of the universe – that energy which connects all entities. Published on the 2d of July, 2024, Love Demystified by Dr Jasmine (who writes under a pseudonym) enthralls readers as she sets out her intriguing beliefs around how Love, God and electromagnetic energy are all one of the same thing; using school level physics to demonstrate her claims. 
    If you’ve had enough of ordering your next lover, like a pizza, from a dating App, or treating your ‘faulty’ partner like a washing machine (isn’t it so much easier to get a new one than to repair an old one?), then Love, demystified, will show you how to nurture a lifelong relationship that transcends the act of sex and opens participants up to the deepest and infinite layers of a person. Whilst also leading to the highest levels of lovemaking pleasures.  
     And as an accidental by product, embracing love in this way also results in you finding, and accomplishing, your life’s purpose.
