  New Zealand Wars - Conflict and...

  The New Zealand Wars, a series of armed conflicts in the 19th century, marked a defining period in the history of Aotearoa. These wars were fought primarily between the British colonial forces and various Māori iwi (tribes), though the conflicts were far from one-sided. They stemmed from a complex array of issues, including disputes over land, sovereignty, and the growing influence of European settlers on Māori society. The origins of these wars can be traced to the arrival of Europeans, whose presence in New Zealand brought with it not only trade but also significant cultural, political, and economic changes. 
  The initial encounters between Māori and European settlers were characterized by a mixture of curiosity, trade, and alliance-building. However, as more settlers arrived, pressure mounted on Māori land and resources. Tensions began to escalate as land was purchased, often under dubious circumstances, leading to Māori grievances over the loss of their ancestral territories. The New Zealand Company, a British settlement scheme, played a significant role in these land disputes, exacerbating tensions between Māori and the Crown. 
  In response to these threats, Māori began to organize and resist. Some iwi, such as the Waikato and Taranaki, developed strong resistance movements in defense of their land and way of life. The British, in turn, sought to assert their authority over the increasingly restless Māori population, leading to the outbreak of hostilities.

  Underwater - The Greed-Soaked...

  While the celebrity victims of Dr. Larry Nassar and the USA Gymnastics sexual abuse scandals rightly got a lot of attention, the number of affected kids is far more numerous in swimming. Underwater tells the almost unbelievable story, in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Australia, Latin America, and the Middle East, of coaches who preyed on children while hopping from program to program, state to state, and even country to country, in a pattern similar to the pedophile priests of the Catholic Church. 
   
  Irvin Muchnick, an experienced investigative reporter of the dark side of our popular sports entertainments, gained access to thousands of pages of FBI files and other sources to expose scores of such scenarios, as well as the inaction of bureaucrats and even the most highly regarded politicians. The ranks of abusers include some of the most famous and celebrated coaches in swimming history. And there’s no fixing the problem, the author says, so long as hundreds of thousands of young swimmers annually — elite and casual athletes alike — remain at the mercy of the Olympic system’s money-hungry priorities.

  Social and Political Change in...

  David S. G Goodman

  This in-depth study examines the influence of the Chinese Communist Party’s effective organizing in Shanxi Province during the War of Resistance. Shanxi Province was on the frontlines of the 1937–1945 War of Resistance against Japan—the war that launched the Chinese Communist Party. During that time, the Taihang Base Area of Southwest Shanxi was one of the Party’s most important strongholds. David Goodman provides the first county-level analysis of social and political change in the Taihang Base Area during those crucial years.   Goodman explores revolution as process, arguing that the Party was successful because of its management of revolutionary incrementalism. He examines the roles of various groups, highlighting the activities of urban intellectuals, teachers, and peasant small-holders as agents of change.   Based on newly available sources, including recently republished materials from the Taihang Base Area, restricted documentation from the Taiyuan Archive, and interviews with veterans of the Taihang Base Area this meticulously researched work deepens our understanding of the social and political origins of the Chinese revolution.
