  Paris Is Not Dead - Surviving...

  The Paris of popular imagination is lined with cobblestone streets and stylish cafés, a beacon for fashionistas and well-heeled tourists. But French-American journalist Cole Stangler, celebrated for his reporting on Paris and French politics, argues that the beating heart of the City of Light lies elsewhere—in its striving, working-class districts whose residents are being priced out of their hometown today. 
   
   
   
  Paris Is Not Dead explores the past, present, and future of the City of Light through the lens of class conflict, highlighting the outsized role of immigrants in shaping the city's progressive, cosmopolitan, and open-minded character—at a time when politics nationwide can feel like they're shifting in the opposite direction. This is the Paris many tourists too often miss: immigrant-heavy districts such as the 18th arrondissement, where crowded street markets still define everyday life. Stangler brings this view of the city to life, combining gripping, street-level reportage, stories of today's working-class Parisians, recent history, and a sweeping analysis of the larger forces shaping the city. 
   
   
   
  In the tradition of Lucy Sante and Mike Davis, Paris Is Not Dead offers a bottom-up portrait of one of the world's most vital urban centers—and a call to action to Francophiles and all who care about the future of cities everywhere.

  This is a home where a man’s word is law—no matter which of them is the man. 
    
  I’m used to giving the orders, so when my wife produces a pair of magic potions for the bedroom, she only demurely suggests we drink. A suggestion I will come to regret—or will I? 
    
  As I am turned into a stunning model of the feminine side, I am amazed to find the hot man who used to be my wife now makes my mouth water—a mouth that wants to wrap around that firm rod. 
    
  But not before doing the dishes and getting that sweet new rear end of mine bent over the sink, where my newfound innocence will be taken. 
    
  How much can I take before I turn back to a man, and will I ever be the same?

  Before the Romans could become masters of the Mediterranean, they had to first conquer the people of their own peninsula. This book explores the origins of Roman imperialism and the creation of Rome's early Italian empire, bringing new light and interpretations to this important but problematic period in Roman history. It explains how and why the Romans were able to expand their influence within Italy, often through the use of armed conflict, laying the foundations for their great imperial project. 
   
   
   
  This book critically reexamines and reframes the traditional literary narrative within an archaeologically informed, archaic Italian context. Jeremy Armstrong presents a new interpretation of the early Roman army, highlighting the fluid and family-driven character which is increasingly visible in the evidence. Children of Mars argues that the emergence of Rome's empire in Italy should not be seen as the spread of a distinct "Roman" people across Italian land, but rather the expansion of a social, political, and military network amongst the Italian people. Armstrong suggests that Rome's early empire was a fundamentally human and relational one. While this reinterpretation of early Roman imperialism is no less violent than the traditional model, it alters its core dynamic and nature, and thus shifts the entire trajectory of Rome's Republican history.

  Anarchism and Society - How...

  Anarchism, as a political philosophy, is fundamentally concerned with the question of authority and its rightful place in society. The central tenet of anarchism is the belief that no individual or institution should have absolute power over others. This idea rejects hierarchical structures and the idea of the state as a necessary or legitimate institution. Anarchism calls for a society where individuals govern themselves through voluntary cooperation and mutual aid, without the need for a coercive state apparatus. 
  Historically, anarchism has evolved from a series of intellectual traditions and movements that have sought to challenge the dominant power structures in society. It draws heavily on the ideas of early political thinkers such as Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, who famously declared, "Property is theft!" and Mikhail Bakunin, who argued for the abolition of the state and the establishment of a society based on collective freedom and self-management. These thinkers were critical of the state, capitalism, and other forms of social hierarchy that limit human freedom. 
  Anarchism is often misunderstood or misrepresented as a chaotic or violent ideology. However, at its core, anarchism advocates for a peaceful and just society where individuals are free to govern themselves without external control. Anarchists argue that true freedom can only be achieved when people are no longer subject to the oppressive structures of the state, capitalism, or other forms of authoritarian control. They advocate for the dismantling of oppressive institutions and the creation of a more equitable and cooperative society.
