With her characteristic brilliance, grace, and radical audacity, Angela Y. Davis has put the case for the latest abolition movement in American life: the abolition of the prison. As she quite correctly notes, American life is replete with abolition movements, and when they were engaged in these struggles, their chances of success seemed almost unthinkable. In Are Prisons Obsolete?, Professor Davis seeks to illustrate that the time for the prison is approaching an end. She argues forthrightly for "decarceration," and argues for the transformation of the society as a whole.

WIRD RUSSLAND EUROPÄISCHES NATO-TERRITORIUM ANGREIFEN? Aktuell kann niemand diese Frage beantworten, sicher aber ist: Ziehen sich die USA mittelfristig aus Europa zurück, wie es unter Donald Trump den Anschein hat, werden sich die Europäer gegen einen Angriff kaum effektiv verteidigen können.

Like two intrepid leftist sleuths, Herb Boyd and Don Rojas take a deep dive into the files of the CIA, mainly inspired by Malcolm X's belief that he was under surveillance. They unearth and disclose enough evidence to confirm Malcolm's suspicion as well as to suggest, through circumstantial documentation, at least one agent stalking him. The book offers valuable insight into the history of government agencies spying on Black activists, and targeting Malcolm was just among the most notable of those in the CIA's crosshairs.

Sicherheitspolitik hat Konjunktur – sie befindet sich jedoch auf einem gefährlichen Irrweg. Der Begriff „Kriegstüchtigkeit“ steht für diese Entwicklung wie kaum ein anderer. Das dahinterstehende Konzept beansprucht unverhältnismäßige Ressourcen, militarisiert Politik und Gesellschaft und löst die Probleme nicht. Der derzeit weitverbreitete Alarmismus in weiten Teilen der Politik und der Medien basiert zudem auf keiner seriösen Bedrohungsanalyse. Der in 80 Jahren überwunden geglaubte Militarismus scheint schleichend und oft sogar mit guten Absichten in einem neuen Gewand zurückzukehren.

Du « parapluie bulgare » au Novitchok, de l'espionnage atomique à la cyberguerre, du KGB au FSB, Andreï Kozovoï brosse une vaste fresque peuplée d'agents aux multiples facettes, lesquels ont acquis au fil des ans une expérience sans équivalent, mais aussi un considérable pouvoir de nuisance.
