Summary

Displacement and Safety sheds light on the often-overlooked plight of LGBTQ refugees and asylum seekers, exploring the reasons behind their forced migration due to violence, discrimination, and persecution. The book emphasizes the necessity for specialized protections within international refugee systems. Current legal frameworks frequently fail to address the nuanced persecution faced by LGBTQ individuals. One intriguing fact highlighted is how cultural norms and legal frameworks significantly influence experiences of persecution, shaping the landscape of homophobia and transphobia worldwide. The book argues for recognizing LGBTQ status as a valid basis for asylum, advocating for inclusive policies.

 
It unfolds in three parts: introducing core concepts, analyzing factors driving LGBTQ displacement through case studies and narratives, and examining challenges within the asylum process. Drawing from legal analyses, human rights reports, and interviews, it provides a comprehensive understanding of issues. A unique aspect is its focus on intersectionality, acknowledging how race, religion, and socioeconomic status compound the challenges faced by LGBTQ refugees seeking social justice and human rights.

  • Death in Old Mexico - The 1789 Dongo Murders and How They Shaped the History of a Nation - cover

    Death in Old Mexico - The 1789...

    In a Mexico City mansion on October 23, 1789, Don Joaquín Dongo and ten of his employees were brutally murdered by three killers armed with machetes. Investigators worked tirelessly to find the perpetrators, who were publicly executed two weeks later. Labelled the "crime of the century," these events and their aftermath have intrigued writers of fiction and nonfiction for over two centuries. Using a vast range of sources, Nicole von Germeten recreates a paper trail of Enlightenment-era greed and savagery, and highlights how the violence of the Mexican judiciary echoed the acts of the murderers. The Spanish government conducted dozens of executions in Mexico City's central square in this era, revealing how European imperialism in the Americas influenced perceptions of violence and how it was tolerated, encouraged, or suppressed. An evocative history, Death in Old Mexico provides a compelling new perspective on late colonial Mexico City.

    Continuing his exploration of the alternative paths that British history might so easily have taken, Timothy Venning turns his attention to the Hundred Years War between England and France. Could the English have won in the long term, or, conversely, have been decisively defeated sooner? 
     
     
     
    Among the many scenarios discussed are what would have happened if the Black Prince had not died prematurely of the Black Death, leaving the ten-year-old Richard to inherit Edward IIIs crown. What would have been the consequences if France's Scottish allies had been victorious at Neville's Cross in 1346, while most English forces were occupied in France? What if Henry V had recovered from the dysentery that killed him at 35, giving time for his son Henry VI to inherit the combined crowns of France and England as a mature (and half-French) man rather than an infant controlled by others? And what if Joan of Arc had not emerged to galvanize French resistance at Orleans? 
     
     
     
    While necessarily speculative, all the scenarios are discussed within the framework of a deep understanding of the major driving forces, tensions, and trends that shaped British history and help to shed light upon them.
