Beschreibung

In many countries, the political backlash against neoliberalism has mainly been a retreat from democracy, with a decline in independence of the judiciary and the monetary authorities, increased control of the media, and manipulation of elections for purposes of authoritarian control. The economic dynamics and the impact of neoliberalism, i.e. deregulation and liberalized markets, is just one cause of this authoritarian shift. The contributors to this volume examine the impact of neoliberal economic policies in relation to cultural and political factors and how these have promoted the recent authoritarian turn, as well as probing the economic policies and performance of the illiberal regimes.

    In the introductory Chapter the reader will find the aim and object of these studies set forth at length. In view of the importance and complexity of the problems involved it seemed better to incorporate such a statement in the book itself, rather than relegate it to a Preface which all might not trouble to read. Yet I feel that such a general statement does not adequately express my full debt of obligation. Among the many whose labour has been laid under contribution in the following pages there are certain scholars whose published work, or personal advice, has been specially illuminating, and to whom specific acknowledgment is therefore due. Like many others I owe to Sir J. G. Frazer the initial inspiration which set me, as I may truly say, on the road to the Grail Castle. Without the guidance of The Golden Bough I should probably, as the late M. Gaston Paris happily expressed it, still be wandering in the forest of Broceliande!

    St Petersburg's structures lay over the skeletons of the press-ganged servant workers who worked to build it, making it the label "the city built on bones." Historians approximate that 100,000 18th-century slaves are buried underneath the city's stunning Italianate estates and large Parisian-style streets.They passed away of cold, appetite, illness, or, if they were truly unfortunate, wolves. They were drawn from all around the Russian Empire at the time. They dedicated their lives for the magnificence of Imperial Russia, and the city they built, St Petersburg, stands as a testimony to the Russian state's single-mindedness.Its extravagant palaces radiate European elegance and were actively built in a Western way to bring Russia closer to Europe.Still, more than 3 centuries later, Russia has yet to finish this journey, and St Petersburg is a witness to the trouble of the journey.Let’s take a look at what else makes Saint Petersburg such a unique place.

    Fred, the patriarch and visionary behind the Koch brothers' legacy, blazed a trail in the oil industry. In 1925, his foresight led him to acquire a one-third stake in a Wichita engineering firm, a pivotal move that laid the foundation for the eventual behemoth, Koch Industries. From these modest beginnings, Fred's entrepreneurial spirit set the stage for a family saga marked by astounding success, familial discord, and a profound impact on the American political landscape. 
    The year 1933 witnessed the union of Fred and Mary Koch, marking the commencement of their familial odyssey. The arrival of their firstborn, Frederick, in 1934, was followed by the birth of Charles in 1935. The family's expansion continued in 1940 with the arrival of fraternal twins, David and Bill, completing the Koch family circle. These formative years were crucial in shaping the dynamics that would later shape the Koch brothers' relationships and individual trajectories. 
    Despite the burgeoning success of Fred's investments, he was steadfast in his resolve not to raise entitled children. Financial lessons were woven into their upbringing, with the children receiving only a modest allowance for completing household chores. Luxuries deemed unnecessary, such as television, were intentionally excluded from their lives. This deliberate approach aimed to instill in them a strong work ethic, rooted in humility, that would serve as the cornerstone of their future endeavors. 
    Fred's commitment to molding resilient individuals was further underscored by his emphasis on manual labor and impromptu history lessons at the family dinner table. Through these unconventional but impactful methods, he sought to impart a broader understanding of the world to his children, transcending the traditional bounds of formal education.

    In this riveting cultural biography, New York Times film critic Alissa Wilkinson examines Joan Didion's influence through the lens of American mythmaking. As a young girl, Didion was infatuated with John Wayne and his on-screen bravado, and was fascinated by her California pioneer ancestry and the infamous Donner Party. The mythos that preoccupied her early years continued to influence her work as a magazine writer and film critic in New York, offering glimmers of the many stories Didion told herself that would come to unravel over the course of her career. But out west, show business beckoned. 
     
     
     
    We Tell Ourselves Stories eloquently traces Didion's journey from New York to her arrival in Hollywood as a screenwriter at the twilight of the old studio system. She spent much of her adult life deeply embroiled in the glitz and glamour of the Los Angeles elite, where she acutely observed—and denounced—how the nation's fears and dreams were sensationalized on screen. Meanwhile, she paid the bills writing movie scripts like A Star Is Born, while her books propelled her to celestial heights of fame. 
     
     
     
    Peering through a scrim of celluloid, Wilkinson incisively dissects the cinematic motifs and machinations that informed Didion's writing—and how her writing, ultimately, demonstrated Hollywood's addictive grasp on the American imagination.

    Research-based strategies for Christian leaders to engage Gen Z and Gen Alpha 
     
    In a world where young people are increasingly disconnected from traditional religious institutions and influenced by social media, church leaders face an urgent challenge: how to authentically engage Gen Z and Gen Alpha in meaningful faith conversations. Faithful Futures offers a research-based lifeline with practical tools and strategies designed specifically for connecting with younger generations in today's rapidly changing cultural landscape. 
     
    This actionable resource provides church leaders with 
     
    ● research-based insights - fresh data on Gen Z and Gen Alpha faith patterns, digital behaviors, and cultural values; 
    ● practical ministry strategies - proven methods for building trust and fostering belonging; 
    ● digital-age tools - effective approaches for engaging youth who grew up online and think in micronarratives; 
    ● relationship-building frameworks - how to establish relational authority and create authentic connections with younger generations; and 
    ● ready-to-use resources - exercises, tools, and discussion questions. 
     
    Traditional youth ministry approaches are often outdated and ineffective for digital natives who grew up online. Sociologist Josh Packard advocates a revolutionary approach that emphasizes relational authority, cultivates genuine belonging, and understands faith as an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision. 
     
    Drawing on fresh data, innovative practices, and more than twenty years of sociological experience, this comprehensive guide equips religious leaders to understand and engage younger generations authentically. It translates complex concepts into practical strategies, addressing the unique cultural and digital landscapes of today's youth and offering new ways to resonate with their realities. 
     
    Whether you're a senior pastor, youth minister, church staff member, or volunteer leader, this book provides the research-backed tools you need to build meaningful relationships with Gen Z and Gen Alpha.
