The decline of the Roman Empire is one of the most studied events in world history, with numerous scholars and historians seeking to explain the causes and contributing factors that led to its fall. It is a complex process that unfolded over centuries, involving a combination of internal weaknesses and external pressures. Although the empire had been a dominant force for centuries, by the 5th century AD, it was struggling to maintain its territorial integrity and power. Several key elements contributed to this gradual decline. One of the primary causes of the empire's decline was economic instability. Over time, the Roman economy became strained under the weight of military expansion, government spending, and inefficient management. Inflation began to plague the empire as the government devalued its currency to finance its military campaigns and public works. Additionally, the empire faced a growing reliance on slave labor, which hindered innovation and economic development. As the economy weakened, the cost of maintaining the empire’s vast infrastructure and military forces became increasingly difficult to manage, leading to a cycle of financial crises. Political corruption and instability were also central to the empire's decline. Throughout its later years, the Roman government became riddled with corruption, particularly within the ruling elite. Emperors were often chosen based on their ability to maintain power rather than their administrative abilities, leading to a lack of effective leadership. The Senate, once a powerful institution, lost its influence, and political factions within the empire vied for control, often undermining efforts to address the empire’s growing problems. This fragmentation of political power weakened the central authority, making it difficult to implement coherent policies across the empire.Zum Buch

‘A brilliant and challenging book’ GORDON BROWN From the founder of Britain’s leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies – and how to go about it. If you’re shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you’re not alone. Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain – with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK – has been far from immune from far-right politics. From HOPE not hate’s pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the ‘manosphere’ and the issues in Netflix's Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of ‘race science’ and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain’s deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism. His conclusions – which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners – suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples – from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford – of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate. In his latest non-fiction work, Lowles explores the social and political ideologies that underpin totalitarianism and organised terrorism. It's a true biography of activists fighting against ethnic intolerance and fascism, making it a must-read for those interested in these topics. nan HarperCollins 2025Zum Buch
Urban disasters have become an increasingly pressing concern as the world continues to urbanize at an unprecedented rate. Cities, once seen as bastions of opportunity and progress, are now at the forefront of vulnerability to both natural and human-made catastrophes. The rapid growth of urban populations, coupled with poorly planned infrastructure and environmental challenges, has created a precarious landscape where the impact of disasters can be catastrophic. One of the primary drivers of urban disaster risk is the sheer scale of urbanization. By 2050, it is estimated that nearly 70% of the world’s population will reside in urban areas. This rapid urban migration often leads to the expansion of informal settlements, where millions live in overcrowded conditions with inadequate access to basic services such as clean water, sanitation, and healthcare. These areas, typically located in hazard-prone zones like floodplains and unstable hillsides, are particularly vulnerable to disasters. When disasters strike, the lack of preparedness and resilience in these communities amplifies the loss of life and property. Climate change further exacerbates the threat of urban disasters. Rising global temperatures are intensifying the frequency and severity of natural hazards, such as hurricanes, floods, heatwaves, and wildfires. Coastal cities, home to millions, face increasing risks from sea level rise and storm surges, threatening vital infrastructure and displacing large populations. Additionally, the interconnected nature of urban systems means that the failure of one critical system, such as electricity or transportation, can cascade into widespread disruptions, leaving cities paralyzed in the wake of a disaster.Zum Buch
