From The Rubble

Synopsis

In the aftermath of World War II, the world stood on the precipice of a new era, a world irrevocably transformed by the cataclysm that had just passed. **From the Rubble** delves into this pivotal moment in history, capturing the raw emotions, shattered dreams, and indomitable spirit of a world grappling with the aftermath of devastation.

From the ashes of war, leaders gathered in Potsdam, Germany, to shape the fate of a world in ruins. President Truman of the United States, Prime Minister Churchill of the United Kingdom, and General Secretary Stalin of the Soviet Union came together to redraw the boundaries of nations, determine the postwar order, and lay the foundation for a new world order.

Yet, their visions for the future clashed, and the seeds of a new conflict were sown. The Potsdam Conference laid bare the deep ideological divides that would shape the world for decades to come, setting the stage for the Cold War—a protracted struggle between democracy and communism.

**From the Rubble** is not merely a chronicle of events; it is a tapestry of human experiences, a poignant exploration of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity. It delves into the stories of ordinary people who rose from the ashes to rebuild their lives and communities, acts of courage and compassion that shone through the darkness.

The book also examines the lasting impact of the war, the psychological scars that lingered long after the guns fell silent. It explores the efforts to rebuild shattered cities, heal the wounds of trauma, and bring war criminals to justice. It highlights the birth of the United Nations, a symbol of hope for a world yearning for peace and cooperation.

**From the Rubble** is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war, the enduring legacies of conflict, and the indomitable spirit that drives humanity to overcome adversity. It is a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit, a testament to the power of hope, and a call for a future free from the scourge of war.

NORAH ROMNEY

Of all the geographical classifications of the indigenous cultures of America that inhabited the continent, only the region called Mesoamerica had, from very early in its history, the use of letters to transmit messages. It is known that the Inca cultures and perhaps some of those that preceded them used a system to memorize stories, but such systems never used signs with values, whether they were logographic or phonetic. This uniqueness places the Mesoamerican area on a par with the cultures of the old continent and Asia, concerning the transmission of the historical memory of its peoples. 
All writing is an information storage system. Indeed, long before writing was invented, human memory existed, and often specific groups of people were trained to ensure the community safeguarding their past. However, there is a significant difference between the transmission of information in written form, that is, utilizing sculpted or painted drawings or signs, and that is, therefore, more efficient and easier to save than that which depends only on the memory and oral transmission.

Totem and Taboo

Sigmund Freud

"Totem and Taboo" by Sigmund Freud explores the origins of human culture, religion, and morality through a psychoanalytic lens. Freud draws parallels between primitive societies and modern neuroses, examining totemism, taboos, and the Oedipus complex. He argues that primal emotions and unconscious drives shape societal structures, including laws and religious practices. By analyzing rituals, myths, and prohibitions, Freud delves into the psychological underpinnings of group identity and authority. A groundbreaking work, it bridges anthropology and psychoanalysis, offering provocative insights into the shared roots of individual and collective behavior. Though controversial, it remains a foundational text for understanding human nature.

Empire of Normality -...

Robert Chapman

'Groundbreaking . . . [provides] a deep history of the invention of the "normal" mind as one of the most damaging and oppressive tools of capitalism. To read it is to see the world more clearly' Steve Silberman, author of NeuroTribes 
 
 
 
Neurodiversity is on the rise. Awareness and diagnoses have exploded in recent years, but we are still missing a wider understanding of how we got here and why. Beyond simplistic narratives of normativity and difference, this groundbreaking book exposes the very myth of the 'normal' brain as a product of intensified capitalism. 
 
 
 
Exploring the rich histories of the neurodiversity and disability movements, Robert Chapman shows how the rise of capitalism created an 'empire of normality' that transformed our understanding of the body into that of a productivity machine. Neurodivergent liberation is possible—but only by challenging the deepest logics of capitalism. Empire of Normality is an essential guide to understanding the systems that shape our bodies, minds, and deepest selves—and how we can undo them.

NEW KALISHNIKOVS THE - AK-47 -...

Mike Blake

THE NEW KALISHNIKOVS :: AK-47 - aka Drones 
This poem is about the new invention in war, of small arms arsenals - The Drone. Coming on the heels of the 
former mass produced and used small arm the - Kalashnikov rifle. 
The similarities of the AK and Drones, for widespread use are their cheapness to build relative to their 
use - cost benefit. Their individual strike and their reliability, and their 
effectiveness. 
In all its guises, it represents a new era in remote 'close contact'. 
The Drone itself being sent from a remote location and controlled at a remote location, 
but the target being an individual, small group or military vehicle like the Tank. 
Drones are fast becoming the choice of weapon in the modern age for battlefield contact.
