Sinossi

Currency Changes explores the evolution of American money and monetary policy, revealing how decisions about currency standards have shaped the nation's economic trajectory. It examines the gold standard era, the establishment of the Federal Reserve System, and the eventual move away from gold, highlighting the motivations and consequences of these shifts. The book emphasizes how these policies have influenced economic stability and growth, providing crucial insights into the cyclical nature of economic booms and busts.

The book presents a chronological analysis, starting with early monetary systems and progressing through the rise and fall of the gold standard. It dissects the impacts of these systems on inflation, employment, and economic growth, offering a balanced analysis rather than advocating for any particular policy. By examining historical patterns and consequences, Currency Changes aims to equip readers with the knowledge to understand current debates about economic inequality, government intervention, and the future of the dollar.

Supported by primary source documents and economic data, this accessible work of economic history takes a long-term perspective, emphasizing the reactive nature of U.S. monetary policy. It connects to political science, sociology, and international relations, providing a comprehensive understanding of the forces shaping the U.S. economy. Ultimately, it seeks to inform readers and encourage well-reasoned conclusions about the future of American money.

Late Fascism - Race Capitalism...

Alberto Toscano

Late Fascism turns to theories of fascism produced in the past century, testing their capacity to illuminate our moment and challenging many of the commonplaces that debate on this extremely charged term devolves into. It can be tempting for any contemporary assessment of fascism to reach for historical analogy. 
 
 
 
Rather than treating fascism as an unrepeatable phenomenon or identifying it with a settled configuration of European parties, regimes, and ideologies, Toscano approaches fascism as a problem and a process, one that is intimately linked to capitalism's demands for domination. Drawing especially on Black radical and anti-colonial theories of racial fascism, Late Fascism makes clear the limits of identifying fascism simply with the political violence of bygone European regimes. From the "Great Replacement" to campaigns against critical race theory and "gender ideology," today's global far-right is launching lethal panics about the threats to traditional political, sexual, and racial regimes. Late Fascism allows us to rediscover some truly inspiring anti-fascist thinkers, rooted in their turn in largely anonymous collective practices of worldmaking against domination, traditions of the oppressed that remain a resource for those set on dismantling the hierarchies and segregations that the partisans of Order and Tradition seek to revive and reimpose.

Divine Protection - A retelling...

Krishna Dharma, Chintamani Dhama...

A dramatic narration of the great Sanskrit epic in fluid prose that enables those new to the text to easily assimilate its profound messages, while enjoying its vivid stories of gods, saints, sages, and ancient kings. In this volume, we see how Krishna saves his devotee from degradation. Beginning with the famous story of Ajamila, the brahmin who fell from an exalted position to become a ruthless robber and cheat, only to be miraculously redeemed at the very moment of death. Then we hear how Indra, king of the gods, insulted his guru and, as a result, was overpowered by the demonic races, led by Vritra, a supernatural colossus conjured for the god’s destruction. The twist in this tale is that the demon was a great saintly devotee of Krishna. Finally, we hear how Diti, mother of the demons, gains her salvation. Through all these narrations, we see how, no matter how fallen you are, if you have any divine service to your credit, Krishna will find a way to save you.

John Lorinc, Leslie Woo, Zahra...

Can messiness make our cities more liveable, lively, and inclusive? 
Crowded streets, sidewalk vendors, jumbled architecture, constant clamour, graffitied walls, parks gone wild: are these signs of a poorly managed city or indicators of urban vitality?

Forty-three essays by a range of writers from around the world illuminate the role of messy urbanism in enabling creativity, enterprise, and grassroots initiatives to flourish within dense modern cities. 
With pieces on guerrilla beaches, desire lines, urban interruptions, and the inner lives of unlovely buildings written by experts from all walks of life, Messy Cities makes the case for embracing disorder while not shying away from confronting its challenges.
