Beschreibung

Tasmania Extinction explores the tragic, intertwined fates of the Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacine) and the indigenous Palawa people, arguing that their demise stemmed from the same roots of colonial violence and ecological destruction. The book uncovers unsettling parallels in how both the Thylacine and the Palawa were perceived as impediments to colonial progress, leading to systematic persecution. For instance, a bounty system encouraged the killing of Thylacines, while the "Black War" aimed to eliminate the Palawa, revealing a shared ideology of domination.

 
Beginning with an introduction to the unique characteristics of the Thylacine and Palawa society, the book then develops a historical narrative, examining the policies and practices that led to the Thylacine's extermination and the near-eradication of the Palawa people, including forced relocations and reserves. It draws upon historical archives, government records, and oral histories to construct a multi-faceted account.

 
The book's value lies in its parallel analysis, revealing the underlying ideologies that fueled both tragedies and offering insights into contemporary environmental issues, reconciliation, and indigenous rights. This examination offers a crucial understanding of colonial dynamics and their lasting effects on both the environment and indigenous communities. By connecting ecological and social injustices, Tasmania Extinction challenges conventional narratives and highlights the urgent need for conservation and ethical engagement, providing practical considerations for a more sustainable and just future.

Shiva the barber was unperturbed. 'There is no point in showing your anger. Raje is gone. Flown away! I got a chance to wear his clothes and pretend to be him for an hour. What else do I need. This is my reward.'
'Haramzaade!' Siddi shouted again and plunged his sword into Shiva's chest. Shiva's face contorted with pain and he stumbled back. He steadied himself for a bit, holding a pillar inside the tent. He could not afford to show his back to the enemy. Even when he was acting like Shivaji he had to be one!
He said, raising his hand to his forehead as he said, 'Raje, ha maaza shevat cha muzra.' It was his last salute to Raje. Shiva collapsed the next moment, dead.

When Shivaji has men like him, how could he not live up to their expectations

Escaping the Gulags: The History of the Most Famous Attempts to Escape the Soviet Union’s Notorious Labor Camps - cover

One of the most idiosyncratic horrors of Soviet Russia was the Gulag system, an extensive network of forced labor and concentration camps. Part of the rationale behind this system was that it could serve as slave labor in the drive for industrialization, while also serving as a form of punishment. The name Gulag is in fact an acronym, approximating to “Main Administration of Camps” (in Russian: Glavnoe Upravlenie Lagerei) and operated by the Soviet Union’s Ministry of the Interior.[1] The Gulag consisted of internment camps, forced labor camps, psychiatric hospital facilities, and special laboratories, and its prisoners were known as zeks. Such was the closed and secretive nature of the Soviet state that to this day, knowledge of the Gulag system comes mainly from Western studies, firsthand accounts by prisoners such as Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, and some local studies after the fall of communism. 
	The most recognisable version of the Gulag, a term that was never pluralized in Russia itself, existed from the 1930s-1950s, a period in which a huge network of camps and prisons was established across the vast Soviet federation. Prisoners were often used as forced labor, made to do physically arduous and soul-destroying tasks. Some workers helped to build large infrastructure projects, and indeed the system was partly rationalized in terms of economics.  
	By the early 1960s, Gulags were synonymous with various forms of punishments, including house arrest, imprisonment in isolated places, or confinement to a mental hospital where a prisoner would be declared insane or diagnosed with a “political” form of psychosis. In its later years, the Gulags held a particular place in the public’s imagination, both within the USSR and in the outside world. They could mean exile, brutal punishment, or simply being banished to Siberia.

Richard I ruled as King of England from 1189 to 1199. He also governed as Duke of Normandy, Aquitaine, and Gascony, Lord of Cyprus, and Count of Poitiers, Anjou, Maine, and Nantes, and also being ruler of Brittany at different periods. He was the 3rd of 5 sons of King Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine, and he appeared not likely to prosper his dad as king, but all of his brothers had passed away before him, other than the youngest, John.Just because of his track record as a prominent army leader and fighter, Richard is called Richard Cur de Lion (Norman French: Le quor de lion) or Richard the Lionheart. Richard Oc-e-Non (Occitan for Yes and No) was a label given to him by troubadour Bertran de Born, probably simply because of his terseness.Richard had taken management of his own army by the age of 16, putting down disobediences in Poitou against his dad.Richard was a key Christian leader throughout the Third Crusade, commanding the project after Philip II of France's departure and winning substantial successes over Saladin, his Muslim equivalent, while signing a peace treaty and ending the fight without retaking Jerusalem.In this book, we will learn more about his life and his motivations.
