Beschreibung

Latin America's political and cultural upheavals in recent years are in large measure attributable to a flourishing renaissance of knowledge production and innovation – intellectual, cultural, literary, grassroots, and artistic projects that have exploded from a multiplicity of social settings and in new media, new movements, and new political expressions.
Rethinking Intellectuals in Latin America captures unfolding processes and cultural politics through a comparative lens examining both historical precursors and contemporary dynamics. This work offers an interdisciplinary tour de force, combining perspectives from history, literature, anthropology, linguistics, politics, and law, and will be an indispensable source for those who want to capture – in all of its plural complexity – the past and the future of cultural and intellectual shifts transforming the Americas.

    Awkwardness - A Theory

    Awkwardness offers an account of the psychology and philosophical significance of a ubiquitous social phenomenon. Our aversion to awkwardness mirrors our desire for inclusion. This explains its power to influence and silence us: as social creatures, we don't want to mark ourselves as outsiders. As a result, our fear of awkwardness inhibits critique and conversation, acting as an impediment to moral and social progress. Even the act of describing people as "awkward" exacerbates existing inequities, by consigning them to a social status that gives them less access to the social goods (knowledge, confidence, social esteem) needed to navigate potentially awkward situations. 
     
     
     
    Awkwardness discusses how we ostracize and punish those who fail to fit into existing social categories; how we all depend on—and are limited by—social scripts and norms for guidance; and how these norms frequently let us down when we need them. But awkwardness has a positive side: it can highlight opportunities for moral and social improvement, by revealing areas where our social norms and scripts fail to meet our needs or have yet to catch up with changing social and moral realities. Awkwardness ultimately underscores the conflict between our moral motivations and our desire for social approval and conformity.

    Journey into the heart of one of the greatest collapses in human history. Collapse and Conflict: The Fall and Fracturing of the Roman Empire (3 in 1) is a powerful collection that captures the drama, chaos, and slow disintegration of a civilization once thought invincible. As the Roman Empire crumbled beneath the weight of corruption, invasions, economic turmoil, and internal strife, the echoes of its decline would shape the course of Western civilization for centuries to come. 
    This volume includes three richly detailed works. The Fall of Rome provides a sweeping account of the final days of the Western Empire, examining the pressures both from within and beyond its borders. Glory and Decay explores the transformation of Rome’s grandeur into fragmentation, as cities crumbled, institutions weakened, and emperors rose and fell in rapid succession. Finally, The Roman Empire Uncovered digs deeper into the myths and realities of the Empire’s decline, revealing the lesser-known events, key figures, and regional shifts that contributed to Rome’s ultimate disintegration. 
    Blending historical narrative with insightful analysis, this trilogy is ideal for readers passionate about ancient history, the rise and fall of empires, and the enduring legacy of Rome. Whether you're a student, scholar, or curious reader, these pages offer a captivating exploration of a world on the edge of collapse—and the birth of what came next.

    The world is desperate for cobalt. It drives the proliferation of digital and clean technologies. But this "demon metal" has a horrific present and a troubled history. 
     
     
     
    The modern search for cobalt has brought investors back to a small town in Northern Canada, a place called Cobalt. Like the demon metal, this town has a dark and turbulent history. 
     
     
     
    The tale of the early-twentieth-century mining rush at Cobalt has been told as a settle's adventure, but Indigenous people had already been trading in metals from the region for two thousand years. And the events that happened here—the theft of Indigenous lands, the exploitation of a multicultural workforce, and the destruction of the natural environment—established a template for resource extraction that has been exported around the world. 
     
      
     
    Charlie Angus reframes the complex and intersectional history of Cobalt within a broader international frame—from the conquistadores to the Western gold rush to the struggles in the Democratic Republic of Congo today. He demonstrates how Cobalt set Canada on its path to become the world's dominant mining superpower.
