Story1
After the Dance first appeared in 2004, 10 years after South Africa’s wildly enthusiastic embrace of freedom and democracy. Its value now, 15 years later, seems to be as a portrait of a new democracy that is losing its innocence. The optimism remains widespread, but the cracks, first hinted at in the 2004 edition, are beginning to show. The halcyon days of the Nelson Mandela presidency have slipped away too rapidly, replaced by early signs of that distinctive post-Uhuru pattern.

Story1
Flat Earth isn't merely a matter of topography and the conspicuous lack of curvature or detectable movement. Flat Earth is the absence of delusion. It is a cleansing of the doors of perception, allowing us to see reality as it is, infinite. The Flat Earth Reformation has already begun in the minds of those who unplugged from that blind faith in the official interpretations of reality and recognized how the Globe-Paradigm is a mental and religious construct which binds humanity in a toxic and codependent relationship with power.

Story1
Die Wahl eines amerikanischen Präsidenten mit afrikanischen Wurzeln und pazifischer Heimat im Jahr 2008 ist Sinnbild eines tiefgreifenden Wandels, der weit über die USA hinausweist. Der fünfhundertjährige Siegeszug des "weißen Mannes" ist Geschichte. Die ehemals koloniale Welt ist im Aufbruch begriffen - demografisch, wirtschaftlich, politisch. Dabei wendet sie sich vom Westen ab, sucht neue Leitbilder, besinnt sich auf eigene Stärken und Traditionen. Die Maßstäbe der Welt werden zurechtgerückt, die Verlierer von einst sind die Gewinner von morgen.

Story0
Jo Guldi tells the story of a global struggle to bring food, water, and shelter to all. Land is shown to be a central motor of politics in the twentieth century: the basis of movements for giving reparations to formerly colonized people, protests to limit the rent paid by urban tenants, intellectual battles among development analysts, and the capture of land by squatters taking matters into their own hands. The Long Land War provides a definitive narrative of land redistribution alongside an unflinching critique of its failures.

Story0
Kwasi Kwarteng is the child of parents whose lives were shaped as subjects of the British Empire, first in their native Ghana, then as British immigrants. He brings a unique perspective and impeccable academic credentials to a narrative history of the British Empire, one that avoids sweeping judgmental condemnation and instead sees the Empire for what it was: a series of local fiefdoms administered in varying degrees of competence or brutality by a cast of characters as outsized and eccentric as anything conjured by Gilbert and Sullivan.

Nick Neely chronicles his 650-mile trek on foot from San Diego to San Francisco, following the route of the first overland Spanish expedition into what was soon called Alta California. Led by Gaspar de Portolá in 1769, the expedition sketched a route that would become, in part, the famous El Camino Real. It laid the foundation for the Golden State we know today, a place that remains as mythical and captivating as any in the world.

One Sunday in 2001 ear, nose and throat specialist Dr Peter Friedland received an unexpected call from Nelson Mandela’s personal physician. The former president was struggling to hear. Could Peter visit him at home? Friedland discovered that Mandela was using antiquated hearing aids and was struggling to maintain them. Soon he became a regular visitor to Mandela’s home in Houghton where he experienced the elderly statesman, in the frailty of old age, away from the crowds. He was full of stories and always bearing a lesson.

Hard Neighbors follows the people who came to be known as Scotch-Irish and traces their relations with Native Americans, examines their experiences as marginalized people, and demonstrates their roles as protective and disruptive forces on the edge of colonialism. The Scotch-Irish fought Indian wars and shaped the frontier, and their experiences living near and fighting against Indians shaped their identity and their attitudes towards government. They influenced national attitudes and policies, and they transformed Indian people into racial others as they transformed themselves into Americans.
