Sinossi

Strategic Assassinations explores how targeted killings have shaped history, focusing on the motives, strategic considerations, and political fallout of these acts. The book argues that assassinations are not isolated incidents but calculated interventions capable of destabilizing governments and altering history. For example, the book investigates assassinations that triggered regime changes, fueled social revolutions, and redrew geopolitical maps. The book uniquely examines assassinations as strategic tools with specific political objectives, moving beyond simple narratives. It uses primary sources, archival records, and scholarly analysis to support its arguments. The book progresses systematically, starting with core concepts and historical perspectives, then analyzing case studies, and concluding with ethical dilemmas and long-term consequences. Drawing from criminology, international relations, and sociology, the book enriches its analysis. It demonstrates how understanding the strategic logic behind assassinations can help policymakers anticipate and mitigate risks associated with political violence. Ultimately, Strategic Assassinations provides valuable insights into political violence's enduring impact on world events.

    A fresh portrayal of one of the architects of the African American intellectual tradition, whose faith in the subversive power of education will inspire teachers and learners today. 
     
     
     
    Black education was a subversive act from its inception. African Americans pursued education through clandestine means, often in defiance of law and custom, even under threat of violence. They developed what Jarvis Givens calls a tradition of "fugitive pedagogy"—a theory and practice of Black education in America. The enslaved learned to read in spite of widespread prohibitions; newly emancipated people braved the dangers of integrating all-White schools and the hardships of building Black schools. Teachers developed covert instructional strategies, creative responses to the persistence of White opposition. From slavery through the Jim Crow era, Black people passed down this educational heritage. 
     
     
     
    There is perhaps no better exemplar of this heritage than Carter G. Woodson—groundbreaking historian, founder of Black History Month, and legendary educator under Jim Crow. Givens shows that Woodson succeeded because of the world of Black teachers to which he belonged: Woodson's first teachers were his formerly enslaved uncles; he himself taught for nearly thirty years; and he spent his life partnering with educators to transform the lives of Black students.

    It has become a common theme in today’s world to talk about the incredible technological and economic development of modern China. However, there are very strong historical roots to the exponential growth of modern China going back thousands and thousands of years. 
    Today, people stand in awe of China’s achievements, such as lifting hundreds of millions of people from poverty or becoming a global power. But have you ever wondered how the ancient people from the Far East developed so much while being virtually independent of other civilizations? 
    Not everything in China’s history is tied to growth, improvement, and development. There were many periods riddled with internal strife, which plagued China and its numerous dynasties. However, the Chinese empires were somewhat shielded from external dangers, partially thanks to the ingeniousness of the Chinese and the famous Great Wall of China and partially thanks to the country’s geographic position. 
    In this audiobook, we look into how and why the historical pendulum of China sometimes turned one way and then the other. Discover the following about ancient China:The deep, virtually unfathomable paleolithic roots of Chinese civilization;Neolithic China and the formation of the Yellow River and Yangtze settlements;The Age of Metal in China, a glorious but increasingly violent period that resulted in the emergence of the first hegemons in China;The mythical Xia dynasty and its fantastic Yu the Great, credited with taming the Yellow River;The birth of China’s fascinating writing system during the Shang dynasty;The rise of the Zhou, who finally overthrew the Shang, thanks to their military prowess and ability to keep numerous Chinese states tied in a loose feudal system;And so much more!
