Sinopse

"Artificial Borders Conflicts" examines how artificially imposed borders, often drawn by colonial powers with little regard for existing populations, continue to fuel conflict and instability worldwide. The book argues these borders aren't just lines; they actively shape political landscapes. It's crucial to understand the history of imperialism, such as the scramble for Africa, to understand the contemporary geopolitical landscape. These borders often disrupt social structures and exacerbate inter-group tensions, directly causing conflict. The book explores the historical context of artificial border creation, the socio-political ramifications for affected populations, and the long-term impact on international relations. 

 
Beginning with a theoretical framework for border studies, the book progresses chronologically and thematically, analyzing specific cases across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Consider the Sykes-Picot Agreement, where arbitrary lines redrew the Middle East, impacting current conflicts. The book analyzes potential solutions and strategies for mitigating the negative impacts of these borders. 

 
Through historical records, treaties, maps, demographic data, and case studies, the book demonstrates the impact of artificial borders. Readers will gain insights into the underlying causes of ongoing conflicts and critically evaluate policy proposals related to border management, conflict resolution, and international development. The book also addresses debates surrounding sovereignty, self-determination, and the legacy of colonialism.

    Aftershock - How Past Events...

    You may be at a point in your life where you realize that you have been edgy, a bit depressed, feeling unsettled. Yet everything in your life seems to be okay. You look for a cause, but you just can't put your finger on it. Perhaps you should examine your recent past—six months ago, a year ago—and ask yourself, "What did I go through that was stressful at the time, yet I was able to deal with by suppressing my stress until that situation was over?" 
     
     
     
    "Aftershock" is a term coined by clinical psychologist Dr. Geri-Lynn Utter, who came to recognize this largely ignored scenario in many of her patients. As a subclinical level of the more familiar post-traumatic stress disorder, "aftershock" may underlie your present emotional stress, a delayed emotional response that affects many of us after common, yet big deal, life events such as miscarriage, moving to a new city, divorce, or, for some people, the Covid-19 pandemic that has rocked much of the world. 
     
     
     
    The most urgent raison d'etre of Aftershock is to enlighten listeners to the very presence of this psychological trauma—what it is and what causes it, how to recognize the symptoms, and how to heal when life's stressors keep you in the center of the aftershock of a storm.

    Listen now to get the key ideas from Jonathan Franklin's, 438 Days. 
    Salvador Alvarenga, a fisherman fleeing violence in El Salvador, found refuge in Costa Azul, Mexico, embracing the treacherous deep-sea fishing of the Gulf of Tehuantepec. On November 17, 2012, Alvarenga and inexperienced fisherman Ezequiel Córdoba went on a fishing trip amidst storm warnings. A powerful storm soon stranded them far offshore. With their boat damaged and no way to navigate, they drifted across the Pacific for months. In 438 Days (2015), journalist Jonathan Franklin draws on interviews with Alvarenga and those involved in his rescue to chronicle this remarkable true story of survival, resilience, and endurance...

    Based on Philip Cowley's entertaining columns in The House magazine, this collection of political oddities and fascinating research, discussing the politics of fights, cockroaches, riots, potholes, beards and much more, is perfect for reading in multiple sittings.

    Equal parts witty and thought-provoking, and with additional grumpy complaints about bats, overly long constituency names and giving the vote to sixteen-year-olds, it's a book that will appeal to the sort of person who likes to tell you that, actually, it's all a bit more complicated than that…
