  Above Life's Turmoil - Rise...

  James Allen (1864–1912) was a man who lived his philosophy. Forced to leave school at 15 after his father's murder, he worked in manual labor jobs before dedicating his life to writing and spiritual inquiry. Despite his lack of formal education, he authored nearly twenty books, with As a Man Thinketh becoming his most famous. Above Life's Turmoil was written during the height of his literary career and reflects his deep synthesis of Christian, Buddhist, and Stoic thought, offering a pragmatic path to peace during the tumultuous Industrial Age—a message that resonates even more powerfully today. 
  In an era of relentless noise and external pursuit, James Allen’s Above Life’s Turmoil offers a timeless sanctuary for the soul. This profound work, penned in 1910, is more than a book; it is a practical philosophy for living. Allen, a British philosophical writer who rose from poverty and personal tragedy to become a quiet pioneer of the self-help movement, argues that while chaos is an inevitable part of life, peace is an internal creation. He guides the reader to rise above adversity not by changing the world, but by mastering the self. 
  Through a series of insightful essays, Allen reveals how the cultivation of pure thoughts, compassionate actions, and a disciplined mind is the only true path to unshakable happiness. He explores the immutable law of cause and effect in one’s inner life, demonstrating how we shape our destiny with every thought. This is not a promise of wealth or fame, but of something far greater: enduring serenity, self-conquest, and a harmonious existence. For anyone feeling overwhelmed by the storms of modern life, this classic text remains an essential guide to finding calm, clarity, and purpose within.

  Colonialism - A Global History

  • 0

  Colonialism: A Global History interprets colonialism as an unequal relationship characterized by displacement and domination and reveals the ways in which this relationship has been constitutive of global modernity. 
   
   
   
  The volume focuses on colonialism's dynamism, adaptability, and resilience. It appraises a number of successive global colonial 'waves', each constituting a specific form of colonial domination, each different from the previous ones, each affecting different locales at different times, and each characterized by a particular method of exploiting colonized populations and territories. Outlining a succession of distinct colonizing conjunctures, and the ways in which they 'washed over' what is today understood as the 'Global South', shaping and reshaping institutions and prompting diverse responses from colonized communities, Colonialism: A Global History also outlines the contemporary relevance of this unequal relation. Overall, it provides an original definition of colonialism and tells the global history of this mode of domination’s evolution and reach. 
   
   
   
  The broad chronological and geographical scope makes this volume the ideal resource for all students and scholars interested in globalization, colonialism, and empire.

  Disaster Nationalism - The...

  The rise of the new far right has left the world grappling with a profound misunderstanding. While the spotlight often shines on the actions of charismatic leaders, the true peril lies elsewhere. Defeating these people will not stem the tide driving them forward. They are merely the embodiment of profound forces that are rarely understood. Propelled through the vast networks of social media and fueled by far-right influencers, enthralled by images of disaster and fantasies of doom, they have emerged from a reservoir of societal despair, fear, and isolation. Within this seething cauldron, we witness not only the surge of far-right political movements but also the sparks of individual and collective violence against perceived enemies, from 'lone wolf' killers to terrifying pogroms. Should a new fascism emerge, it will coalesce from these very elements. This is disaster nationalism. 
   
   
   
  Richard Seymour delves deep into this alarming development in world politics, dissecting its roots, its influencers, and the threats it poses. With meticulous analysis and compelling storytelling, Seymour offers a stark warning. The battle against disaster nationalism is not just political; it is a struggle for our collective soul and the future of civilization itself. Unless we understand the deeper forces propelling the far-right resurgence, we have little chance of stopping it.
