Maison d'édition: Publishdrive

Synopsis

In a world grappling with the enduring legacy of imperialism, this thought-provoking book offers a comprehensive analysis of its insidious workings, far-reaching impact, and the urgent need for transformative change.

With meticulous research and incisive analysis, the author delves into the historical roots of imperialism, tracing its evolution from colonialism to its modern manifestations. Through a critical examination of economic, political, military, cultural, and ideological dimensions, the book reveals the intricate mechanisms that perpetuate imperial power structures.

The author shines a light on the devastating impact of imperialism on developing nations, exposing the deep-rooted inequalities and injustices that continue to plague the global community. From the exploitation of natural resources to the imposition of unfair trade policies, the book lays bare the mechanisms that maintain the dependency of weaker nations on imperial powers.

Moreover, the book explores the courageous resistance movements that have emerged in response to imperialism, highlighting historical examples of defiance and contemporary forms of activism. It emphasizes the crucial role of social movements, international solidarity, and grassroots initiatives in challenging imperial dominance and envisioning a more just and equitable world.

The book also investigates the complex relationship between imperialism and global crises such as climate change and militarism. It exposes the role of imperial powers in driving environmental degradation and exacerbating the climate crisis, while also highlighting the disproportionate impact of these crises on developing nations. The author calls for urgent action to address these interconnected challenges and build a sustainable and peaceful world.

Furthermore, the book examines the ways in which imperialism undermines democracy and perpetuates authoritarianism. It analyzes the impact of imperial powers on the erosion of democratic institutions and the rise of oppressive regimes. The author emphasizes the urgent need for a new democratic order that upholds the principles of equality, justice, and self-determination.

Ultimately, this book is a clarion call for transformative change. It challenges readers to rethink the global power dynamics that perpetuate imperialism and envision a future where all nations can thrive in peace, dignity, and prosperity.

LIBAN State of survival

Fouad Khoury-Helou

Lebanon is often described as “the most successful failed state of the 21st century”. This irony perfectly describes the reality of the country, which harbors vital forces and remarkable economic and cultural potential, but which suffers from extreme and inextricable violence. 
This book, which reads like a thriller, traces this turbulent history since the 19th century: that of a country condemned to constant struggle, constantly buffeted by external interventions, from the Ottomans to the Iranians, via the Syrians, the Israelis, the British and the Americans, not forgetting France, which continues to play a pre-eminent role. 
Although Lebanon, the gateway to the Middle East and hostage to international rivalries, has managed, despite everything, to survive, and, like Sisyphus, to heal its internal dissensions in order to constantly climb back up the slope, it has nevertheless been hit in recent years by a succession of unprecedented crises, with a financial and economic collapse that has brought the country to its knees, This has been compounded by a huge influx of Syrian migrants fleeing the war in their homeland, equivalent to half the Lebanese population, and topped off by a particularly destructive confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah, which has ravaged whole swathes of Lebanon. 
What are the possible solutions for Lebanon's future? What scenarios are on the horizon? These are the answers that this book also seeks to provide.

The Race to the Future - 8000...

Kassia St. Clair

The racers battle over steep inclines, through narrow mountain passages, and across the arid Gobi Desert. Competitors endure torrential rain and choking dust. There are barely any roads, and petrol is almost impossible to find. 
 
 
 
More than its many adventures, the Peking-to-Paris Motor Challenge took place on the precipice of a new world. As the twentieth century dawned, imperial regimes in China and Russia were crumbling, paving the way for the rise of communist ones. The electric telegraph was rapidly transforming modern communication, and with it, the news media, commerce, and politics. Suspended between the old and the new, the Peking-to-Paris, as bestselling historian Kassia St. Clair writes, became a critical tipping point. 
 
 
 
A gripping, immersive narrative of the race, The Race to the Future sets the drivers' derring-do (and occasional cheating) against the backdrop of a larger geopolitical and technological race to the future. Interweaving events from the fall of the Qing dynasty to the departure of the horse economy and the rise of gendered marketing, St. Clair shows how the Peking-to-Paris provided an impetus for profound social, cultural, and industrial change, while masterfully capturing the mounting tensions between nations and empires—all building up to the cataclysmic event that changed everything: the First World War.

Retaking Kokoda - The Battles...

David W. Cameron

Japanese Major General Horii Tomitarô, commanding the South Seas Force, had the Australians on the back foot. Australia was holding the last defendable ridge in the Owen Stanley ranges, Imita Ridge. Horii to his distress was then given orders from Imperial Headquarters in Tokyo that he was to fall back across the mountains to the Japanese beachheads at Gona, Sanananda, and Buna, leaving a force between Templeton’s Crossing and Eora Creek to stop any Australian advance through the mountains. The Japanese, unknown to the Australians evacuated Ioribaiwa Ridge just before they launched their attacks and to their amazement on storming the heights, the Australians encountered no resistance – the Japanese had gone. 
 
This, however, did not mean the fighting on the Kokoda Track was over, far from it. Three more desperate actions would be fought by the Australians and Japanese, before the decisive battles for the Japanese beachheads could be decided – the battles for Templeton’s Crossing, Eora Creek, and finally the Oivi-Gorari positions on the northern lowland plains. Just 15-kilometres east lay the Kumusi River, the last geographical barrier before reaching the strongly fortified Japanese beachheads themselves.
