Summary

Unity Trade Gains explores the complex impacts of international trade agreements on national economies, GDP growth, income inequality, and environmental sustainability. It investigates whether these agreements truly deliver widespread economic prosperity or disproportionately benefit a select few. The book's strength lies in its data-driven analysis, drawing from sources like the WTO and World Bank to assess the real-world consequences of trade liberalization. One intriguing aspect is the examination of how trade agreements affect different sectors and income groups within participating countries.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the fundamental principles of international trade and the institutions governing it. It then analyzes specific trade agreements, examining case studies from various regions. Subsequent sections delve into the distributional effects of trade, focusing on impacts to different industries, skill groups, and geographic areas.

 
The book concludes with policy recommendations aimed at maximizing the benefits of trade while mitigating potential drawbacks, emphasizing the role of domestic policies. This book uniquely bridges economics and politics, exploring political considerations in trade agreement negotiations and implementation. It also connects with environmental studies by examining the environmental impacts of increased trade flows. It argues that international trade agreements can generate significant economic benefits but require careful design, effective implementation, and complementary domestic policies to address negative consequences and foster inclusive growth.

    A provocative examination of how religious practices of forgetting drive white Christian nationalism. 
      
    The dual traumas of colonialism and slavery are still felt by Native Americans and African Americans as victims of ongoing violence toward people of color today. In The Feeling of Forgetting, John Corrigan calls attention to the trauma experienced by white Americans as perpetrators of this violence. By tracing memory’s role in American Christianity, Corrigan shows how contemporary white Christian nationalism is motivated by a widespread effort to forget the role race plays in American society. White trauma, Corrigan argues, courses through American culture like an underground river that sometimes bursts forth into brutality, terrorism, and insurrection. Tracing the river to its source is a necessary first step toward healing.

    Mankind across the world has been imprisoned. They called it lockdown. We have been terrified into submission. Words like 'pandemic' and images of horror have been thrust upon us. It is all a scam. A lie. It is part of a long-term plot to control, manipulate and enslave mankind. A divided world has been brought together under a common threat and it is just the beginning. 
     
    There are massive, global revolutions being created and fostered by a powerful, dark and sinister group that have directed the sheep for countless generations. Very soon you will be asked to do things you would never have contemplated before and you will do them gladly. This is the story of how your freedoms and liberties are being taken away from you without you even caring. In fact you will be happy to lose them. And all because of a small virus created by that same elite group and let loose upon mankind for a very malevolent end.

    For centuries, temples have functioned not just as places of worship but also social and cultural centres, offering both a connection to the divine and entertainment in the form of music and dance as respite from everyday life. In Dynasties of Devotion, Deepa Mandlik explores seven ancient temples across India and Cambodia, meticulously examines historical contexts and mythological stories associated with each temple. 
    At the Kailasa Temple in Ellora, Maharashtra, she is struck by the visual representation of fertility and abundance - Goddess Lakshmi, elegantly sitting on a lotus, surrounded by four elephants showering her with rain. Through the dancing sculptures of Shiva and Parvati at the magnificent Brihadeeswara Temple in Tamil Nadu, Deepa reveals that this Chola dynasty temple was once a prestigious platform for Bharatanatyam with nearly 400 dancers and 250 musicians in residence. At the Airavatesvara Temple, in Tamil Nadu, she experiences the wonder of the saptaswara (seven-note) steps which, when struck lightly, produce the sound of the seven musical notes. 
    From these to the other similarly named Brihdeshwara Temple in Tamil Nadu to the Chainnakeshva Temple in Karnataka and the Padmanabh Swami Temple in Kerala to Angkor Wat and Bayon in Cambodia, Deepa brings to life the rich tapestry of history, art and spirituality that is woven through them. Marked by vivid storytelling, Dynasties of Devotion is an ode to the enduring legacy of India's temple culture; it is at once an intimate glimpse into these spaces for the curious reader and scholar and a handy walking guide for the spellbound tourist.
