Synopsis

In this provocative and thought-provoking book, Pasquale De Marco challenges the conventional wisdom about progress. Pasquale De Marco argues that the idea of progress is a myth, and that it is actually leading us down a dangerous path.

Pasquale De Marco traces the history of the idea of progress from its origins in the Enlightenment to its current crisis. Pasquale De Marco shows how the belief in progress has been used to justify everything from colonialism to environmental destruction.

Pasquale De Marco argues that we need to rethink our understanding of progress. We need to move away from the idea that progress is inevitable and that it is always good. We need to develop a more sustainable and just vision of progress, one that is based on the values of equality, justice, and environmental sustainability.

This book is a wake-up call. It is a call to action. It is time for us to change our course and to create a better future for ourselves and for generations to come.

Kotromanić Dynasty The: The...

Editors Charles River

Much has been written about Western intervention during the breakup of Yugoslavia, and whether it made matters worse, prevented worse atrocities, or was simply ineffective. In early 1992, however, what was clear was that Europe was hopelessly divided over the best course of action to take towards Yugoslavia, and after several years of fighting, the Bosnian War was one of the most violent conflagrations in Europe since the end of World War II.  
	Depending on the source, many authors have focused on different catalysts for Yugoslavia’s demise, but Vesna Drapac may have succinctly summed the situation up when he wrote that by the end, the state “lacked a reason to exist.” There is certainly something in this sentiment, but the disintegration came at an enormous cost. 
	Given what happened in Yugoslavia, it should be little surprise that Bosnia did not have its fully-established borders until the 19th century, and even in modern times, in many respects the people distinguished and defined Bosnia as a polity more than its shifting borders, and regardless of whether Bosnia operated as an independent state or kingdom. It was during the Middle Ages that Bosnia’s culture and ethnic makeup truly began to coalesce, despite the politically rocky nature of the era in the Balkans.

Progressive Dystopia - Abolition...

Savannah Shange

San Francisco is the endgame of gentrification, where racialized displacement means that the Black population of the city hovers at just over three percent. The Robeson Justice Academy opened to serve the few remaining low-income neighborhoods of the city, with the mission of offering liberatory, social justice-themed education to youth of color. While it features a progressive curriculum, including Frantz Fanon and Audre Lorde, the majority Latinx school also has the district's highest suspension rates for Black students. In Progressive Dystopia Savannah Shange explores the potential for reconciling the school's marginalization of Black students with its sincere pursuit of multiracial uplift and solidarity. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and six years of experience teaching at the school, Shange outlines how the school fails its students and the community because it operates within a space predicated on antiblackness. Seeing San Francisco as a social laboratory for how Black communities survive the end of their worlds, Shange argues for abolition over revolution or progressive reform as the needed path toward Black freedom.
