Vladimir Putin

Maison d'édition: Good Press

Synopsis

In "On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians," Vladimir Putin articulates a controversial perspective on the intertwined histories of Russia and Ukraine. The text is a blend of historical reflection and political ideology, wherein Putin employs a rhetorical style that seeks to assert the notion of an intrinsic bond between the two nations. Utilizing historical narratives, cultural references, and nationalistic fervor, he frames contemporary conflicts within a broader historical context, arguing against the legitimacy of Ukrainian sovereignty. This work serves as both a political manifesto and an attempt at historical revisionism, reflecting ongoing tensions in the post-Soviet space. Putin, a former intelligence officer and a figure immensely shaped by his experiences in the Soviet Union, presents this work as a means of reinforcing his geopolitical agenda. Influenced by a deep-seated vision of Russian identity and a desire to reclaim influence over former Soviet territories, his writing is both a personal reflection and an assertion of national strategy. The text reveals the ideological underpinnings that inform his policies, providing insight into his motivations and the narratives he seeks to promote. This book is essential for readers seeking to understand the complex historical narratives that influence contemporary Russian-Ukrainian relations. It is a provocative read for scholars and laypeople alike, offering critical insights into the contentious issues of national identity and regional power dynamics. Putin's arguments warrant careful examination, especially in light of ongoing geopolitical challenges, making this work a significant contribution to modern historical and political discourse.

Paratextualizing Games -...

Gundolf S. Freyermuth, Benjamin...

Gaming no longer only takes place as a ›closed interactive experience‹ in front of TV screens, but also as broadcast on streaming platforms or as cultural events in exhibition centers and e-sport arenas. The popularization of new technologies, forms of expression, and online services has had a considerable influence on the academic and journalistic discourse about games. This anthology examines which paratexts gaming cultures have produced - i.e., in which forms and formats and through which channels we talk (and write) about games - as well as the way in which paratexts influence the development of games. How is knowledge about games generated and shaped today and how do boundaries between (popular) criticism, journalism, and scholarship have started to blur? In short: How does the paratext change the text?

The Fall of the Anunnaki and the...

RYAN MOORHEN

The Most Mysterious Anunnaki governor of all was Ur-Nammu of Ur, who subsequently became an independent Anunnaki king (2113-2096 BC) and founded a spin-off Anunnaki dynasty known as the Third Dynasty of Ur (or Ur 3 period), which endured for more than a century (2113-2006 BC). This Anunnaki Empire was more compact than the Sargon of Agade and showed an advanced Anunnaki Sumerian civilization in its most fully developed form. It was a highly organized bureaucratic society, reflected because cuneiform tablets from this period, mainly referring to gods and descendants of Nibiru in content, are represented in world museums to the number of well over a hundred thousand; most of these are waiting to be published. 
Anunnaki's references became obsessive. Every thing had to be annotated to the Anunnaki realm, such as, on one tablet, an exact count of Anunnaki Deities (2,740 in total) although only 96 were worshiped as gods. There were even documents recording a mass exodus of Anunnaki back to Nibiru for a festival. Despite, or perhaps even because of, this sophisticated Anunnaki worship, it was a time of considerable material prosperity, as archaeology witnesses, as widespread evidence of Anunnaki Temple activities. Ur-Nammu himself, the founder of the principal Anunnaki dynasty, built or rebuilt temples in many ancient cities, such as Erech, Lagash, Nippur, and Eridu, but above all, at his Anunnaki capital, Ur.

Populism Vs Liberalism - A...

Arlo Holders

Political ideologies form the foundation of how societies organize governance, economics, and social structures. They are systems of ideas and beliefs that provide a framework for political thought and action, influencing policies, institutions, and the behavior of individuals and groups. Among the diverse range of ideologies, populism and liberalism have emerged as two of the most significant and often opposing forces in modern political discourse. This chapter introduces the concepts of populism and liberalism, highlights their importance, and sets the stage for the comparative analysis that follows.
Populism is a political approach that champions the rights and concerns of the common people against an established elite. It is often characterized by a rhetoric that emphasizes “the people” as a unified and virtuous entity, contrasted with a corrupt and self-serving elite. While populism can manifest across the political spectrum, its appeal lies in its simplicity and directness, offering solutions that often resonate with those who feel excluded or marginalized by traditional institutions. Populist movements frequently arise in periods of social upheaval or economic insecurity, presenting themselves as corrective forces against perceived injustices.
In contrast, liberalism is a political ideology rooted in the principles of individual rights, equality, and the rule of law. It advocates for democratic governance, free markets, and the protection of civil liberties. Liberalism’s historical development is closely linked with movements such as the Enlightenment and the rise of constitutional democracies. As a flexible and adaptive ideology, liberalism has evolved to address modern issues such as social justice, environmental concerns, and global cooperation while maintaining its foundational emphasis on freedom and equality.
