  Mississippi rivers and creeks have shaped every aspect of the state's geology, ecology, economy, settlement, and politics. Mississippi's paddleways—its rivers, rills, creeks, and streams—are its arteries, its lifeblood, and the connective tissues that tie its stories and histories together and flood them with a sense of place and impel them along the current of time. The rivers provide structure for the telling of stories. In Paddleways of Mississippi: Rivers and People of the Magnolia State, listeners will discover flowing details of virtually every waterway in the state—the features, wildlife, vegetation, geology, hydrology, and specific challenges to be expected—alongside many wonderful historical and social accounts specific to each system. 
   
   
   
  Interviews and oral histories enliven these waterways with evocative scenery, engaging anecdotes, interesting historical tales, and personal accounts of the people and communities that arose along the waterways of Mississippi. Part natural history, part narrative nonfiction, Paddleways of Mississippi will appeal to outdoor enthusiasts, anglers, naturalists, campers, and historians, and is suitable for novices as well as experts. Told together, the pieces included are a social and ecological history that exposes and deepens the connection coursing between the people and the rivers.

  Social Entrepreneurship in...

  Public and political interest in social entrepreneurship (SE) is increasing while it remains a contested and ambiguous concept. Philipp Kenel traces the popular media representation of SE in Germany over time (1999—2021), making an important empirical contribution to the sociological and political understanding of the phenomenon. He shows that until 2008, SE was mainly understood as a reform of the welfare infrastructure (including public and non-profit institutions). From 2009, SE was increasingly conceptualised as part of the economy, while sometimes challenging and other times reaffirming mainstream economic logics. More recently, in somewhat competing perspectives, SE has been framed as part of the ›start-up‹ world or as a force for deeper social and ecological transformation.

  The Populist Playbook -...

  Populism, as a political ideology and movement, is rooted in the idea of a fundamental divide between "the people" and "the elite." It asserts that the common people, often portrayed as hardworking and morally upright, are being oppressed or ignored by an elite class of politicians, businessmen, and intellectuals who are perceived as self-serving and out of touch with the needs of the general public. The term "populism" has evolved over time and can be used to describe a range of political movements and leaders who claim to represent the interests of the ordinary person against established powers. However, despite its widespread usage, the definition of populism remains fluid, often shaped by the context in which it is used. 
  Historically, populism has roots in 19th-century agrarian movements in the United States and Europe. In the United States, for instance, the Populist Party emerged in the late 1800s as a response to the economic struggles of farmers, advocating for policies such as free silver and the direct election of senators. Similarly, in Europe, populist movements often arose in opposition to industrialization and the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of the elites. These early forms of populism focused on economic issues and the struggle of the working class and rural populations against the powerful urban elites and industrialists. 
  In modern times, populism has become more varied and globalized, often adapting to the specific cultural, economic, and political climates of different countries. Contemporary populist movements often capitalize on discontent with globalization, rising inequality, and the perceived failures of traditional political elites to address the concerns of ordinary citizens. The populist playbook has expanded to include a wide array of strategies, from fiery rhetoric and social media manipulation to direct attacks on democratic institutions and the media.
