  Christopher Clark

  This book presents new perspectives on how the exercise of power is shaped by different notions of time. Acclaimed historian Christopher Clark draws on four key figures from German history—Friedrich Wilhelm of Brandenburg-Prussia, Frederick the Great, Otto von Bismarck, and Adolf Hitler—to look at history through a temporal lens and ask how historical actors and their regimes embody unique conceptions of time. 
   
   
   
  Inspired by the insights of Reinhart Koselleck and François Hartog, pioneers of the "temporal turn" in historiography, Clark shows how Friedrich Wilhelm rejected the notion of continuity with the past, believing instead that a sovereign must liberate the state from the entanglements of tradition to choose freely among different possible futures. He demonstrates how Frederick the Great abandoned this paradigm for a neoclassical vision of history in which sovereign and state transcend time altogether, and how Bismarck believed that the statesman's duty was to preserve the timeless permanence of the state amid the torrent of historical change. Clark describes how Hitler sought to evade history altogether, emphasizing timeless racial archetypes and a prophetically foretold future. From the Thirty Years' War to the fall of the Third Reich, this book reveals the connection between political power and the distinct temporalities of the leaders who wield it.

  A Brief History of Lao Sai in...

  School-taught 'Social Studies' is a fairly sanitised affair. We learn about Britain, Lee Kuan Yew, and the paramount importance of free trade. We also learn about food and the origins of Chicken Rice. However, what comes out is just as important as what goes in, because Singapore's history is also a fecal history—of dysentery, nightsoil, quacks and more. In short, it's a story of shit.

  Tibet Was Never A Part of China...

  Professor Hon-Shiang Lau

  As a signatory to the League of Nations and United Nations covenants, China promised not to conquer new territories after 1919. Therefore, after the People’s Republic of China (PRC) conquered Tibet in 1950, she saw the necessity of lying to the world that Tibet has always been an inseparable part of China. In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Hon-Shiang Lau, Ph.D., dismantles that narrative with clarity and precision. Drawing on official Chinese sources, imperial records, treaties, and eyewitness accounts, Lau demonstrates that Tibet’s relationship with China was neither one of continuous subjugation nor sovereign control. Instead, he reveals a far more complex and independent Tibetan history that stands apart from Beijing’s propaganda.
  		 
  With meticulous scholarship and accessible prose, Lau takes readers on a journey through centuries of contested borders, political maneuvering, and shifting alliances. The result is a compelling account that restores historical truth to the Tibetan people and dispels the many lies and fabrications propagated by the PRC. This book is not only a critical resource for historians and policymakers but also an essential work for anyone seeking to understand Tibet’s rightful place in world history.
