Synopsis

'Honor Killing Practices' presents a comprehensive examination of honor-based violence as a critical human rights issue, exploring how these deadly practices persist in modern society despite global advancement. The book navigates the complex intersection of cultural traditions, legal frameworks, and human rights, offering both scholarly analysis and practical solutions for addressing this challenging social phenomenon.

 
Drawing from extensive field research across multiple continents, the work reveals how honor killings have evolved from tribal customs to contemporary manifestations, supported by both quantitative data and compelling case studies. The book's unique strength lies in its interdisciplinary approach, connecting legal studies, anthropology, and gender studies to provide a holistic understanding of the issue.

 
Through systematic exploration of sociocultural foundations, legal responses, and prevention strategies, readers gain insight into how these practices become embedded in community structures and why they resist change. The book progresses logically from foundational concepts to practical applications, making it valuable for both academics and practitioners. It combines statistical analysis with firsthand accounts from law enforcement and social workers, while addressing current debates about cultural relativism versus universal human rights.

 
Most importantly, it offers evidence-based frameworks for policy development and community intervention, providing essential tools for professionals working to combat gender-based violence and promote sustainable social change.

    In The Time beneath the Concrete, Nasser Abourahme argues that settler colonialism is always as much an attempt to conquer time as it is to conquer land. Taking as his primary object  Palestinian refugee camps, created in the fallout of the eliminatory violence of Israel's founding, Abourahme shows how these camps become the primary place where settler colonial attempts to dominate space and time encounter Indigenous refusal. Seen from the camps, Israel becomes a settler colonial project defined by its inability to move past the past—a project stuck at its foundational moment of conquest. At the same time, the Palestinian insistence on return is a refusal to abide by the closure of the past into settler futurity. Palestinian struggle does not just happen in the open time of dispossession; it happens over this time. That struggle, Abourahme demonstrates, is a form of anticolonial refusal that draws its power not from any decisive finality, but precisely from irresolution and keeping time open.

    Discover Henry David Thoreau’s philosophy of living a good life and learn how to apply it to your own.   The hero for our time is someone few people get right. Thoreau wasn’t a hermit in the woods. He lived during a time like ours, of rapid technological and economic changes, political division, and a pandemic. Thoreau, like us, reassessed his priorities: What does success really look like? What is my duty as an ethical citizen of a less-than-ethical world? How can I live a good life amid (insert hand-sweeping gesture) all of this?   His solution: Pare down to trade up.  Finding Your Walden combines classic literature with happiness studies, exploring how experts—psychologists, career coaches, and doctors—support Thoreau’s ideas as guideposts for today’s Great Reassessment. It combines insights of the 1854 classic with people who embrace the pare-down-to-trade-up philosophy today, whether through major life changes (such as tiny homes or sabbaticals) or smaller life hacks (like digital sabbaths or meditation practices). Their stories inspire us to apply creativity, simplicity, and peace to the experiment of life.  Finding Your Walden isn’t about shunning money or success. It’s about grappling with the purpose of the first and the meaning of the second. Whether you love Walden or haven’t read it, you can join Thoreau on a path to discover an intentional life during a volatile time—you just need to make a stop at a cabin on the way.

    This radical and rigorous rethinking of the traditional MBA program combines solid business principles with a commitment to environmental and social justice. 
     
    Many current and aspiring entrepreneurs are looking for a solid business education that also deeply aligns with their progressive values. Based on a course field-tested with over 500 students, this book fills that gap. It covers traditional topics such as business strategy and structure, finance, marketing, recruiting, and branding from a socially just and environmentally regenerative perspective. And it also touches on topics such as strategies to reverse climate change, nonviolent communication, self-managing organizations, locally self-reliant economies, racial justice, and more.  
     
    Traditional MBA programs are based on outdated principles that were developed during the Industrial Revolution-and they can be hugely expensive. Sustainable MBA programs, while laudable, are too incremental to make a sufficient impact. The Next Economy MBA is for entrepreneurs seeking to make business an active force for good. It draws on the authors' experience of working with over 300 social enterprises, from small organizations like Winona's Hemp and Heritage Farm to household names like Ben & Jerry's and Patagonia. 
     
    Our current economy, what the authors call the "Business as Usual Economy," has created a massive wealth gap, a climate crisis, racial division, and needless housing, food, and healthcare shortages. This book shows how businesses can pave the way to a Next Economy that meets the basic needs of all people and restores and protects the planetary ecosystem.

    I have a secret—something that’s consuming my life. 
    Strength…it’s what matters most in the military. If you’re skinny and weak like me, then you need allies. You need to prove your worth. 
    You go into the woods with more powerful men. 
    You open your mouth and thank them while they use you. 
    Then you go back to camp and cook their food. You make their beds. You fall to your knees and beg to do it all again tomorrow. 
    That’s how life is for boys like us. We’re born to be controlled. 
    It’s natural.
