Patterns of Power

Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In Patterns of Power, we embark on a captivating journey to explore the intricate and multifaceted nature of power. This comprehensive book delves into the historical, social, political, and cultural contexts of power, offering a profound understanding of its dynamics and impact on our world.

We begin by examining the evolution of power structures across civilizations, analyzing how power has been wielded by individuals and institutions throughout history. We investigate the psychology of power, shedding light on the motivations and behaviors of those who seek and maintain power, as well as the effects of power on those subjected to it.

Furthermore, we explore the relationship between power and various societal institutions, including politics, economics, and culture. We examine how power shapes political decision-making, economic policies, and cultural norms, and how these institutions, in turn, perpetuate and reinforce power structures. We also investigate the role of media, education, and religion in shaping perceptions of power and the ways in which these institutions can be used to maintain or challenge existing power dynamics.

Additionally, we delve into the complex relationship between power and technology. We explore how technological advancements have transformed the ways in which power is exercised and experienced, and the implications of these changes for individuals, societies, and the world at large. We discuss the potential of technology to empower individuals and promote social change, while also considering the risks and challenges associated with its use and misuse.

Throughout the book, we draw upon a wide range of case studies, historical examples, and contemporary issues to illustrate the diverse manifestations of power and its impact on our lives. We encourage readers to engage critically with the concepts and theories presented, fostering a deeper understanding of power dynamics and their implications for social justice, equality, and human flourishing.

Patterns of Power is an essential read for anyone seeking a comprehensive exploration of power and its intricate workings in our world. It is a thought-provoking and enlightening work that challenges conventional perspectives and inspires readers to think critically about the nature of power and its role in shaping our societies and lives.

Blowing up Ukraine - The Return...

Yuri Felshtinsky, Michael Stanchev

Presciently researched before the invasion of Ukraine, Blowing up Ukraine is the first comprehensive investigation into the lethal methods Russia has used since 1999 to take over Ukraine – culminating in full-blown unprovoked war in 2022 and mounting atrocities. In this chilling, riveting and alarming narrative the authors cite ample evidence, draw historical analogies, and marshal sources that are new, little known, or anonymous by necessity.Over twenty years, Vladimir Putin skilfully manipulated Ukraine's self-serving politicians and oligarchs, only to be thwarted time and again by peaceful revolutions of ordinary Ukrainians – the Maidan – against government corruption and being pushed into Russia's arms. As Putin became obsessed with conquering Ukraine, Blowing up Ukraine shows how the Kremlin has become a threat to global stability and Ukraine is almost certain to be the first battleground of World War III if the West is not careful to take a stance

They Told Us To Move: Dakota—Cassia

Kok Hoe Ng

What happens when an entire community is moved?  
 
Dakota Crescent was one of Singapore's oldest public housing estates and a rental flat neighbourhood for low-income households. In 2016, its residents—many of whom are elderly—were relocated to Cassia Crescent to make way for redevelopment. To help them resettle, a group of volunteers came together and formed the Cassia Resettlement Team. 
 
They Told Us to Move tells the story of the relocation through interviews with the residents from the Dakota community and reflections by the volunteers. Accompanying these are essays by various academics on urban planning; gender and family; ageing, poverty, and social services; civil society and citizenship; and architectural heritage and place-making. Through this three-part conversation, the book explores human stories of devotion, expectation, and remembrance. It asks what we can achieve through voluntary action and how we can balance self-reliance and public services. 
 
This book is for people who want to understand the kind of society we are, and question what kind of society we want to be.

Highland American Empires -...

Rolf Hedger

Highland American Empires: Kingdoms in the Clouds (3 in 1) explores the rise, achievements, and legacies of three remarkable civilizations that flourished in the rugged highlands of South America: Tiwanaku, the Wari Empire, and the Tairona Civilization. These cultures adapted to extreme altitudes, developing sophisticated cities, engineering feats, and complex societies that influenced later Andean and Mesoamerican civilizations.   
Journey into the world of Tiwanaku, a spiritual and political center near Lake Titicaca, known for its massive stone structures, intricate carvings, and advanced understanding of agriculture and irrigation. Its influence spread across the Andean region, shaping cultural and religious traditions that endured for centuries.   
Discover the Wari Empire, one of the first true imperial powers of the Andes, which established extensive road networks, administrative centers, and urban planning techniques that prefigured the later Inca civilization. Their mastery of terraced farming and state organization allowed them to dominate the region for hundreds of years.   
Uncover the Tairona Civilization, a lesser-known yet sophisticated society that thrived in the mountainous regions of present-day Colombia. Renowned for their breathtaking gold craftsmanship, elaborate stone cities, and harmonious integration with the surrounding environment, the Tairona left a legacy that still resonates among their modern descendants, the Kogi people.   
From sacred temples to vast road systems, these highland empires demonstrated remarkable resilience and ingenuity. This book is perfect for history enthusiasts seeking to explore the hidden civilizations that once ruled the mountain landscapes of the Americas.

Shmuel's Bridge - Following the...

Jason Sommer

A moving memoir of a son's relationship with his survivor father and of their Eastern European journey through a family history of incalculable loss. 
 
 
 
Jason Sommer's father, Jay, is ninety-eight years old and losing his memory. More than seventy years after arriving in New York from WWII-torn Europe, he is forgetting the stories that defined his life, the life of his family, and the lives of millions of Jews who were affected by Nazi terror. Observing this loss, Jason vividly recalls the trip to Eastern Europe the two took together in 2001. 
 
 
  
As father and son travel from the town of Jay's birth to the labor camp from which he escaped, and to Auschwitz, where many in his family were lost, the stories Jason's father has told all his life come alive. So too do Jason's own memories of the way his father's past complicated and impacted Jason's own inner life. 
 
 
  
Shmuel's Bridge shows history through a double lens: the memories of a growing son's complex relationship with his father and the meditations of that son who, now grown, finds himself caring for a man losing all connection to a past that must not be forgotten.
