European Regions - Perspectives...

Gabriele Abels, Elisabeth Donat,...

At the beginning of the 21st century, the EU is facing deep political, social, and economic changes. The benefit of supranational organization is no longer obvious to European citizens and questions of legitimacy have accompanied the EU's development over the last decades. Regions - albeit often deemed »obsolete« - present themselves as stable and reliable partners in this turbulent environment: in being important objects of identification to their citizens, but also relevant political and legal entities in the EU's multilevel governance system. This edited volume asks about the role of regions and regional identity in a European Union that is perhaps struggling more than ever about its future.

The Mythical Underworld -...

Odessa Nightshade

The concept of the underworld has been a central theme in mythology and religious traditions across cultures and centuries. It is a realm shrouded in mystery, often depicted as the final destination of souls after death. Whether seen as a place of judgment, purification, or eternal rest, the underworld reflects humanity’s deep curiosity and fear about what lies beyond life. From the Greek Hades to the Egyptian Duat, these mythical realms offer insight into the values, beliefs, and spiritual practices of ancient civilizations. While each culture envisions the underworld differently, common themes emerge, such as the presence of a ruler of the dead, trials for the soul, and pathways leading to different fates.
Death and the afterlife have always been significant concerns for humankind, shaping rituals, moral codes, and philosophical ideas. The question of what happens after death has inspired countless myths, each attempting to explain the mysteries of existence. For some, the underworld is a dark and terrifying place filled with suffering, while for others, it is a peaceful domain where the dead find rest. In many traditions, the journey to the underworld is not simply an end but a transition, offering the possibility of rebirth, redemption, or transformation. These beliefs influenced burial customs, from the elaborate tombs of Egyptian pharaohs to the Norse practice of ship burials, each designed to prepare the deceased for the next stage of existence.
The underworld also plays a crucial role in religious and moral systems, reinforcing the idea of divine justice. Many myths describe a system where souls are judged based on their deeds in life, determining whether they receive reward or punishment. The Greek underworld, for instance, separates the virtuous from the wicked, assigning them to Elysium or Tartarus.

A Spectre Haunting

China Miéville

In 1848, THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO was published by two émigrés from Germany. Marx and Engels' apocalyptic vision of an insatiable system that penetrates every corner of the world reduces every relationship to that of profit, and burst asunder the old forms of production and of politics. It is still a recognisable picture of our world – the vampiric energy of the system being once again highly contentious. 
 
The Manifesto is a text that shows no sign of fading into antiquarian obscurity. Its ideas animate in different ways the work of writers like Yanis Varoufakis, Adam Tooze, Naomi Klein and the journalist Owen Jones. 
 
China Mieville is not a writer who has been hemmed in by conventional notions of expertise or genre, and this is a strikingly imaginative take on Marx and what his most haunting book has to say to us today.
