From the time of Peter the Great to the reign of Vladimir Putin, the question of Russia's view of Europe and Western values has absorbed and divided the country's rulers, thinkers and people. One distinctive Russian idea, formulated almost 200 years ago, is that Russia not only differs from Western civilisation, but is morally superior to it. In the years since the collapse of the Soviet Union, this idea has come to replace communism as a state ideology. 
In this concise and illuminating account, Bengt Jangfeldt highlights the dramatic swings of the pendulum in Russian history. By outlining the main features of the dualistic nature of Russian civilisation, Jangfeldt leads the reader through the history of ideas of this vast country and explains how Russia became the bulwark of reactionary nationalism it is today.

The book that has been waiting to be written – how Ireland’s housing policy has locked an entire generation out of the housing market and what we should do about it. 
Millennials are the first generation in Ireland to be worse off than their parents. Trapped in a game of rental roulette, stuck living at home as adults, and many on the brink of homelessness, the Irish housing crisis has defined the lives of an entire generation – and it is set to continue. 
With housing costs in Ireland the highest in the EU, the property ladder has been kicked from under thousands. So how did we get here … and how do we break the cycle? 
In Gaffs, housing expert Rory Hearne urges us to think about the people behind the statistics, and shows us that there is a way towards a future where everyone has access to a home. 
In Gaffs, Rory Hearne, a renowned expert in sociology and economics, delves into the heart of the Irish housing crisis, exposing the economic disparity and social classes struggle. He presents a compelling argument, backed by top-notch research, about the dire need for a shift in public policy.

In Church as It Is In Heaven - Cultivating a Multiethnic Kingdom Culture - cover

In Church as It Is In Heaven -...

Heaven is multiethnic. Are you ready for that? 
 
 
 
The Bible tells us that the congregation gathered around God's heavenly throne will be "a vast multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language," all singing the praises of the Lamb. God's intention has always been to delight for all eternity in a redeemed community of ethnic diversity. 
 
 
 
But this diverse community shouldn't have to wait until eternity to begin! It can be a reality in our own local churches here and now. Patterned after a worship service, In Church as It Is in Heaven gives biblical warrant for such a community and shows how multiethnic churches provide a unique apologetic for the gospel. Along the way, the authors tell the story of their own church—a majority-white congregation which is being transformed into a family that reflects the diversity of heaven. 
 
 
 
The multiethnic kingdom is not just a nice idea, or an abstract theory. It's a reality—one we can enter into today.
