Beschreibung

Chocolate: A Global History reveals the surprising journey of chocolate, tracing its path from ancient Mesoamerican rituals to its current status as a global commodity. The book explores how cocoa beans, once used as currency and in religious ceremonies by the Olmec, Maya, and Aztec civilizations, became a coveted treat in Europe and beyond. This transformation highlights not just a change in taste, but also shifts in global power dynamics and cultural interactions.

 
The narrative progresses chronologically, examining the European encounter with cocoa, the rise of cocoa plantations, and the subsequent reliance on forced labor. It further investigates the industrialization of chocolate in the 19th and 20th centuries, touching upon the creation of iconic brands and the globalization of consumption.

 
The book takes a comprehensive approach, drawing from various disciplines to offer a nuanced understanding of chocolate's intricate past, and encourages readers to consider ethical sourcing and sustainable practices within the chocolate industry.

    The first major book on the uprisings in Iran in 2022 and 2023 
     
    On Tuesday 13 September 2022, all Mahsa Amini has planned is a day shopping in Tehran. Her birthday is next week. But she is arrested as she comes out of the subway – the Guidance Patrol deem her hijab inadequate. On Friday she is pronounced dead. By Sunday, women have taken to the streets across Iran, setting their headscarves on fire and cursing the Supreme Leader. Months later, workers down their tools and businesses close. The battle-cry everywhere: Women, Life, Freedom. 
     
    This isn’t a passing protest wave; something has changed irrevocably. Arash Azizi guides us through Iran ablaze, history being made in real time. From an International Women’s Day celebrated inside Iran’s most notorious prison to mass strikes in Kurdistan, ordinary Iranians are taking risks to fight for a better future.  
     
    Even as the regime spills blood in retaliation, Iranians have not given up. Today one thing’s clear: no Supreme Leader can turn the clock back. A different Iran is within sight; Azizi shows us what it might look like.
