Sons and Others - On Loving Male Survivors

Tanaka Mhishi

Casa editrice: 404 Ink

Sinossi

In the UK, around one in six men will experience some form of sexual violence. Many of these men who experience sexual abuse are dismissed, only brought up as the butt of a joke, an exception to the rule or, perhaps at worst, are used as a rhetorical tool against female victims.
Conversations on sexual violence have understandably focused on women's voices and experiences, with data indicating that women are still the majority of victims and not enough is being done to prevent this violence. As most perpetrators of this violence against women are men, it becomes almost easy to mistake that male survivors stories are exceptions or irrelevances. The fact is that we share a world and our experiences are closely interwoven.
Sons and Others challenges misconceptions and misrepresentations of sexual violence against men across media and society and offers a new way of seeing and understanding these men in our lives, asking how the violence they experience affects us all.

The Collapse of Global...

Philip Pilkington

In the 1990s, a vision emerged of a frictionless world of globalization in which the West would become ever richer on the basis of a tech-based service economy, all underpinned by a rules-based liberal international order. It became the basis for the mainstream politics of center-left and right. 
 
Philip Pilkington argues that this vision was always delusional and is now dying. It is based on a doctrinaire and unrealistic form of liberalism and has given rise to hollowed-out financialized economies and disintegrating societies that can barely even reproduce their population or meet their energy needs. The US and UK find themselves ill-equipped to compete with China and other non-liberal states within an emerging post-liberal order in which what really matters is industrial capacity, realpolitik, and military strength. Only by abandoning our liberal delusions and advancing our own brand of hard-headed post-liberalism can the West survive. 
 
No clearsighted observer of contemporary geopolitics can afford to miss this bracing diagnosis of the West's malaise and bold agenda for renewal.

Blood Brothers - To Battleground...

Deon Lamprecht

On 10 June 1980, during the Border War, the SADF's 61 Mechanised Battalion Group attacked a complex of Swapo military bases in southern Angola. A long day of bloody fighting ensued.
Second Lieutenant Paul Louw led Platoon 1, in four Ratel infantry fighting vehicles, to an objective called Smokeshell. After emerging from a dry riverbed, the young national servicemen suddenly found themselves facing a heavily defended enemy position and under deadly fire.
In the ensuing chaos of that day, 12 troopies of Louw's platoon of 44 were killed and he himself was wounded. The 18-year-old HP Ferreira was shot through the pelvis by a 14,5 mm anti-aircraft round and also hit by AK-47 bullets. He miraculously survived.
Blood Brothers records the dramatic events of that horrific day, in the words of the survivors of the battle, and follows members of Louw's platoon on their long journey of healing and recovery. It investigates the human cost of war after the last shots have been fired and follows the veterans as they return to the battleground four decades later in search of peace.

The Shocking Truth about Modern...

Zoey Fraisers

Education is often considered the most important tool for personal success and societal progress, promising to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the complexities of life. It is believed to be the key to opportunity, growth, and empowerment. Yet, when we take a closer look at the state of modern education, we find a different reality—a system that is increasingly failing to meet the needs of today’s learners and society as a whole. Behind the promise of a well-rounded, enriching education lies a structure that often stifles creativity, disregards individuality, and fails to prepare students for the rapidly changing world around them.
At its core, the modern education system is built on an outdated framework that prioritizes uniformity and standardization over adaptability and critical thinking. The methods used to educate students today were designed in the industrial era, when the focus was on producing workers for factories rather than nurturing creative thinkers, innovators, and problem-solvers. While the world has evolved in countless ways since then—especially with the rise of technology and globalization—the classroom has remained largely unchanged. The result is a system that no longer serves the needs of diverse learners and, in many cases, actively hinders their potential.
This book aims to explore the hidden truths about modern education, shedding light on the deep-rooted issues that have long been overlooked or ignored. From the rise of standardized testing to the growing influence of corporate interests, we will examine how these forces have reshaped education into something that prioritizes compliance and efficiency over genuine learning and personal growth.
