Military Heroism in a Post-Heroic Era (The Military and Society)

by Uzi Ben-Shalom René Moelker Nehemia Stern Eyal Ben-Ari

This book explores the variety of forms that individual heroism and sacrifice can take in the context of contemporary military conflicts. It addresses three key questions: How has an enduring ideal of heroism been transformed by the nature of modern warfare? Are we now witnessing the emergence of new forms of exemplary military behavior? And, have new ideals of heroism (and by association, sacrifice or bravery) been added to older forms in the recent past? The book advocates viewing the concept of military heroism as a moral category, in which its theoretical definition and empirical practice reflect those factors that are seen as being vital for society itself. The key theoretical and topical challenges addressed in the respective chapters focus on how ideas of heroism become entwined with issues of individualization (bolstered by the cultural assumptions of neo-Liberalism), the spread of the human rights discourse, and the judicialization, marketization and mediatization of armedforces. The book was written by experts on military studies, including many who are currently active military personnel. It includes contributions from a variety of disciplines, e.g. anthropology, sociology, psychology, and political science.

Mimi and Co

by Jennifer Lindsey

Mimi, Sami and Nina are sisters who spend their long summer holidays on the rugged southwest Shipwreck Coast of Victoria. With their family, Mimi & Co learn to swim and surf in the tumbling waves surging in from the cold waters of Bass Strait and climb the great sandstone cliffs that sweep down to the sea. They explore isolated beaches, remote coves, long-lost shipwrecks, and meet penguins, lambs, sheepdogs, frogs – and even a fox. Days are spent reading, sleeping, swimming, and eating picnic lunches on the beach. Television, timetables, and traffic are nowhere to be seen, and time seems somehow to be organised without clocks. We hope you will enjoy their adventures too.

by James R. Doty

A deep exploration of the neuroscience behind manifestation, with a six-part plan for realizing your dreamsFor decades the practice of manifestation has been widely dismissed as self-involved, materialistic pseudoscience.

Doty grounds us in the practices that change our brain structures: attention, meditation, visualization, and compassion. This mind magic allows us to move through the world in ways that help us see clearly—reclaiming our agency, realizing our dreams, and reaching out to help others along the path. Where previous works about manifestation have focused narrowly on outward success and individual benefit, Mind Magic delivers an openhearted call to make manifestation part of a deeper contribution to healing the problems we face today.

Minds, Brains, and Doxa for Inclusive Entrepreneurship: Entrepreneurial Ecosystems for Diverse Entrepreneurs (International Studies in Entrepreneurship #47)

by Kirsten Mikkelsen Annika Wolf

This book explores ways in which inclusive entrepreneurship enhances bottom-up entrepreneurial activity for economic and societal transformation, particularly in remote areas.

It examines the relationship between the internal and external entrepreneurial ecosystems in higher education for fostering entrepreneurial mindsets. Topics such as women and diversity in entrepreneurship; social entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial education are explored. This integration of inclusive and emancipatory aspects in entrepreneurship research and practice is of benefit to researchers, scholars, academics, practitioners, and policy makers interested in and have a passion for (re)building entrepreneurial ecosystems.

Mining, Mobility, and Social Change in the Global South: Regional Perspectives (Routledge Studies of the Extractive Industries and Sustainable Development)

by Gerardo Castillo Guzmán Matthew Himley David Brereton

This volume focuses on how, why, under what conditions, and with what effects people move across space in relation to mining, asking how a focus on spatial mobility can aid scholars and policymakers in understanding the complex relation between mining and social change. This collection centers the concept of mobility to address the diversity of mining-related population movements as well as the agency of people engaged in these movements. This volume opens by introducing both the historical context and conceptual tools for analyzing the mining-mobility nexus, followed by case study chapters focusing on three regions with significant histories of mineral extraction and where mining currently plays an important role in socio-economic life: the Andes, Central and West Africa, and Melanesia. Written by authors with expertise in diverse fields, including anthropology, development studies, geography, and history, case study chapters address areas of both large- and smallscale mining. They explore the historical-geographical factors shaping mining-related mobilities, the meanings people attach to these movements, and the relations between people’s mobility practices and the flows of other things put in motion by mining, including capital, ideas, technologies, and toxic contamination. The result is an important volume that provides fresh insights into the social geographies and spatial politics of extraction. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of mining and the extractive industries, spatial politics and geography, mobility and migration, development, and the social and environmental dimensions of natural resources more generally.

A recently established government ministry is gathering &“expats&” from across history to establish whether time travel is feasible—for the body, but also for the fabric of space-time. She is tasked with working as a &“bridge&”: living with, assisting, and monitoring the expat known as &“1847&” or Commander Graham Gore. As far as history is concerned, Commander Gore died on Sir John Franklin&’s doomed 1845 expedition to the Arctic, so he&’s a little disoriented to be living with an unmarried woman who regularly shows her calves, surrounded by outlandish concepts such as &“washing machines,&” &“Spotify,&” and &“the collapse of the British Empire.&” But with an appetite for discovery, a seven-a-day cigarette habit, and the support of a charming and chaotic cast of fellow expats, he soon adjusts. Over the next year, what the bridge initially thought would be, at best, a horrifically uncomfortable roommate dynamic, evolves into something much deeper. By the time the true shape of the Ministry&’s project comes to light, the bridge has fallen haphazardly, fervently in love, with consequences she never could have imagined. Forced to confront the choices that brought them together, the bridge must finally reckon with how—and whether she believes—what she does next can change the future. An exquisitely original and feverishly fun fusion of genres and ideas, The Ministry of Time asks: What does it mean to defy history, when history is living in your house? Kaliane Bradley&’s answer is a blazing, unforgettable testament to what we owe each other in a changing world.

The Minneapolis Reckoning: Race, Violence, and the Politics of Policing in America

by Michelle S. Phelps

Challenges to racialized policing, from early reform efforts to BLM protests and the aftermath of George Floyd&’s murder The eruption of Black Lives Matter protests against police violence in 2014 spurred a wave of police reform. One of the places to embrace this reform was Minneapolis, Minnesota, a city long known for its liberal politics. Yet in May 2020, four of its officers murdered George Floyd. Fiery protests followed, making the city a national emblem for the failures of police reform. In response, members of the Minneapolis City Council pledged to &“end&” the Minneapolis Police Department. In The Minneapolis Reckoning, Michelle Phelps describes how Minneapolis arrived at the brink of police abolition.Phelps explains that the council&’s pledge did not come out of a single moment of rage, but decades of organizing efforts. Yet the politics of transforming policing were more complex than they first appeared. Despite public outrage over police brutality, the council&’s initiatives faced stiff opposition, including by Black community leaders who called for more police protection against crime as well as police reform. In 2021, voters ultimately rejected the ballot measure to end the department. Yet change continued on the ground, as state and federal investigations pushed police reform and city leaders and residents began to develop alternative models of safety.The Minneapolis Reckoning shows how the dualized meaning of the police—as both the promise of state protection and the threat of state violence—creates the complex politics of policing that thwart change. Phelps&’s account of the city's struggles over what constitutes real accountability, justice, and safety offers a vivid picture of the possibilities and limits of challenging police power today.

Minority Rule: The Right-Wing Attack on the Will of the People—and the Fight to Resist It

by Ari Berman

A riveting account of the decades-long effort by reactionary white conservatives to undermine democracy and entrench their power—and the movement to stop them.The mob that stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021, represented an extreme form of the central danger facing American democracy today: a blatant disregard for the will of the majority. But this crisis didn’t begin or end with Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election. Through voter suppression, election subversion, gerrymandering, dark money, the takeover of the courts, and the whitewashing of history, reactionary white conservatives have strategically entrenched power in the face of a massive demographic and political shift. Ari Berman charts these efforts with sweeping historical research and incisive on-the-ground reporting, chronicling how a wide range of antidemocratic tactics interact with profound structural inequalities in institutions like the Electoral College, the Senate, and the Supreme Court to threaten the survival of representative government in America.“The will of the people,” wrote Thomas Jefferson in 1801, “is the only legitimate foundation of any government.” But that foundation is crumbling. Some counter-majoritarian measures were deliberately built into the Constitution, which was designed in part to benefit a small propertied upper class, but they have metastasized to a degree that the Founding Fathers could never have anticipated, undermining the very notion of “a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.” Chilling and revelatory, Minority Rule exposes the long history of the conflict between white supremacy and multiracial democracy that has reached a fever pitch today—while also telling the inspiring story of resistance to these regressive efforts.

The Minotaur at Calle Lanza

With nods to Calvino and Borges, and reminiscent of Teju Cole, The Minotaur at Calle Lanza is an unforgettable travel memoir about the mysterious transformations that may lurk inside us all.

Miracles for Skeptics: Encountering the Paranormal Ministry of Jesus

by Frank G. Honeycutt

Are the miracle stories in the Bible actually true? Christians and skeptics alike may doubt the veracity of Jesus&’s miracles. Preachers often rely on a dry, literal interpretation of his healings and wonders, or else try to tame them and explain them away rationally. Both approaches, in their obsession with historical accuracy, miss the truth behind these stories. Frank G. Honeycutt draws out the deeper truths in the weird incidents in the Bible. In a warm, conversational style, Honeycutt reads iconic miracle stories—from the wedding at Cana to demonic exorcisms—to enrich the life of faith. Digging into these &“unbelievable&” stories can widen our spiritual imaginations and point to the promise of Christ&’s new world. Pastors seeking thoughtful resources and any inquisitive reader will find a wealth of pastoral insight and scriptural wisdom in Miracles for Skeptics.
