Beschreibung

Gothic Migration explores the intricate history of the Goths, examining their migrations, their complex relationships with the Roman Empire, and their lasting impact on the transition from Late Antiquity to the medieval world. It challenges the traditional view of the Goths as mere barbarian invaders, arguing instead that they were a dynamic people who significantly shaped, and were shaped by, their interactions with Roman civilization. For instance, the Battle of Adrianople in 378 AD exposed the Roman Empire's vulnerabilities, highlighting the Goths' military prowess. The book emphasizes the Goths' agency in creating new political and cultural entities within former Roman territories, such as the Visigothic kingdom in Spain and the Ostrogothic kingdom in Italy. 

 
The book unfolds chronologically and thematically, tracing the Goths' origins and migrations from Scandinavia to the Black Sea region. It analyzes their initial interactions with Rome as trading partners and allies, then delves into their increasing rivalry and conflicts, including the Barbarian Invasions. Further chapters detail the establishment of Gothic kingdoms, examining their governance, laws, and cultural contributions. By drawing upon historical sources, archaeological evidence, and legal codes, Gothic Migration provides a comprehensive narrative of the Goths' role in the Fall of Rome and the subsequent transformation of Europe.

    Ayn Rand's philosophy, known as Objectivism, centers around a few key principles: 
      
    Metaphysics: Rand asserts the primacy of existence. She argues that reality exists independent of our perceptions or beliefs, and that it is knowable through reason. 
      
    Epistemology: She champions reason as the only means of acquiring knowledge. According to Rand, reason is the faculty that identifies and integrates the material provided by our senses. 
      
    Ethics: Rand's ethical theory is based on rational self-interest or egoism. She argues that individuals should act in their own best interest, and that this is both moral and practical. The virtue of selfishness, as she terms it, means pursuing one’s own happiness as the highest moral aim. 
      
    Politics: Rand advocates for laissez-faire capitalism as the ideal political system. She believes that the government’s sole role should be to protect individual rights through the police, military, and judiciary, but not to interfere in the economy or individual choices. 
      
    Aesthetics: In her view, art is a reflection of an artist's values and vision of life. She supports Romantic Realism, where art is a representation of life as it could be and should be, celebrating human potential and achievement.

    Spreading Hate - The Global Rise...

    The modern white power movement is now a global, transnational phenomenon. 
     
    In this sweeping, authoritative account, Daniel Byman traces the key moments in the white power movement’s evolution in the United States and around the world and then details its many facets today. Using a wide range of sources, Byman explodes several myths about  
    white power terrorism and identifies dangerous gaps in current policies. 
     
    For almost two decades since 9/11, white supremacist terrorism has been relegated to a secondary concern in the US and Europe despite shocking episodes of violence from New Zealand to Norway to South Carolina. Because white power terrorists’ grievances echo  
    mainstream debates and their violence often exacerbates polarization, their political impact can be inordinately high even if the body count is low. As Byman stresses, they are not a hidebound movement seeking to turn back the clock, but are dynamic, drawing on  
    ideas from around the world and exploiting the most cutting-edge technologies, especially social media. 
     
    White power terrorists, however, have many weaknesses. They are divided, with poor leadership, and often attract the incompetent and the criminal as well as the dangerous and deluded. If governments act decisively and treat white power terrorism with the same  
    urgency they use to manage jihadist violence, then the threat can be reduced. This will require aggressive law enforcement, international intelligence cooperation, crackdowns by technology companies, and other forceful steps. Spreading Hate will be essential reading  
    for anyone worried about this increasingly networked movement that threatens to grow more dangerous in the years to come.

    For more than thirty years, investigative journalist and New York Times bestselling author Craig Pittman has chronicled the wildest stories Florida has to offer. Featuring a selection of columns that have appeared in the Tampa Bay Times and other outlets throughout Pittman's career, this book highlights just how strange and wonderful Florida can be. 
     
     
     
    With a folksy style, an eye for the absurd, and a passion for the history and environment of his home state, Pittman describes some of Florida's oddest wildlife as well as its quirkiest people. The State You're In includes a love story involving the most tattooed woman in the world, a deep dive into the state's professional mermaid industry, and an investigation of a battle between residents of a nudist resort and the U.S. Postal Service. Pittman introduces listeners to a who's who of Florida crime fiction, a what's what of exotic animals, and an array of beloved places he's seen change rapidly in his lifetime. 
     
     
     
    Many of these stories are funny, some are serious, and several offer rare insights into the heart of the Sunshine State. For Pittman, Florida is both inspiring and dangerous—an "evolutionary test" for those who live in it. Together these pieces paint a complex picture of a fascinating state longing for an identity beyond palm trees and punchlines.
