Sinopse

Jakarta Pulse explores Indonesia's capital as a microcosm of the nation's identity, transformations, and struggles. It examines Jakarta's political power, historical evolution, and socio-economic development. This book uncovers how the city embodies both the aspirations and challenges of a rapidly developing nation. For example, Jakarta's multicultural heritage reflects Indonesia's diversity, but also its societal tensions. The book analyzes the city’s growth, addressing issues like infrastructure and socio-economic inequality, to reveal the city's complex story.

 
The book argues that understanding Jakarta's trajectory is crucial for comprehending Indonesia's nation-building and democratization efforts. It progresses through thematic explorations, beginning with Jakarta's historical context as a colonial trading post and then delving into its urban fabric, political dynamics, and future prospects. By drawing upon diverse sources, including archival documents and firsthand accounts, Jakarta Pulse offers a nuanced perspective on Jakarta's past, present, and future, making it valuable for anyone interested in Southeast Asian studies and urban development.

    Beginning in childhood, and continuing throughout our lives, we are immersed in a web of evaluations, attitudes, and practices that are evidence of our deep commitment to moral responsibility. At the same time, we may encounter puzzles and perplexities that may encourage skepticism about moral responsibility.This Very Short Introduction explores our understanding of moral responsibility and what it involves. This includes various practical problems that we face in dealing with it in a truthful, effective, and humane way. The picture presented is one that falls in the territory that lies between a consoling optimism and a bleak pessimism about our human ethical predicament.

    Love Offers No Safety: Nigeria’s Queer Men Speak is a raw and powerful collection of 25 first-person narratives that explore the diverse experience of queer Nigerian men. These stirring stories cut across age, class, religion, ethnicity, family and relationships, offering a glimpse into what it means to survive as a queer man in Nigeria. From Tunji, who takes us back to the thriving networking community before social media, to Chukwori, who struggles to reconcile his need to serve God with his sexuality, and Abdulkarim, who frustratingly wonders if he’ll ever stop working twice as hard to be accepted, these stories are full of contradictions, anger, resiliency, profound insight, and radical hope.
    
    
    With heightened levels of oppression, violence, and discrimination faced by LGBTQ Nigerians due to the Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Law, these voices remind us of what the queer community in Nigeria has always been fighting for - the freedom to be themselves, love themselves, and love each other, despite being viewed as unworthy. Love Offers No Safety is a heart-breaking yet hopeful reminder that love knows no boundaries and offers no safety, but it is worth fighting for.
