How do you cheer up a woman who has spent hours cleaning prison toilets with a broken mop? The secret is in a tres leches cake. In Iran’s prisons, women endure horrors: they are beaten, interrogated, and humiliated in a thousand ways. Even a whisper to a fellow inmate can be punished. Yet—in spite of anything and everything—they resist: they bake. They console each other, cry together, dance together. The Evin Prison Bakers’ Club is a call to stand up for women, life, and freedom by a woman still fighting for a free Iran.

Disinformation is designed to evoke a strong emotional response to push us toward more extreme views, unable to find common ground with others. The false claims that led to the breathtaking attack on our Capitol in 2020 may have been only a dress rehearsal. Attack from Within shows us how to prevent it from happening again, thus preserving our country's hard-won democracy.

Strategic nonviolent action has reasserted itself as a potent force in shaping public debate and forcing political change.

La globalización ha producido sensaciones de impotencia en millones de personas en Occidente. Ese sentimiento de indefensión genera resentimiento y un afán por buscar culpables. Se culpa a los inmigrantes. Se culpa a los musulmanes. Se culpa a otras razas. Se culpa a la élite cultural. Basándose en una combinación de ejemplos históricos y contemporáneos, Nussbaum desenreda en La monarquía del miedo toda esta maraña de sentimientos y nos proporciona así una hoja de ruta para que sepamos hacia dónde dirigir nuestros pasos a partir de aquí.

Warum zieht es manche Menschen politisch an den rechten Rand (und andere nicht)? Und warum sind unter ihnen so viele Verschwörungsgläubige, Impfgegner und Klimaleugner? Woher kommt ihr Wunsch nach extremen Autoritäten? Wer heute nach Abgrenzung, Härte, neuen Autoritäten und neuen »Wahrheiten« schreit, ist als Kind in seiner Verletzlichkeit allein gelassen worden. Das dadurch beschädigte Vertrauen, so zeigt das Hörbuch, bildet den fruchtbaren Boden für populistische Versprechungen.

In Radically Reframing Climate Change: A Guide to Saving Ourselves, Will Hackman identifies three main obstacles to solving climate change: polarization, paralysis, and stale, ineffective messaging. He empowers readers to turn their anxiety or apathy into passion, and anger into action at the personal, community, and government levels. The climate rallying cries to “Save the Planet” no longer work in our hyper-partisan world, nor do images of polar bears on melting glaciers. The problem isn’t scientific, fact-based, or even technological. It’s political, emotional, and ideological.

Der einzige Grund, warum die CDU/CSU sich immer noch eine "Volkspartei" nennen kann, ist und heißt: Angela Merkel. Doch die in großen Teilen der Bevölkerung noch immer beliebte "Mutti" verlässt unwiderruflich das politische Parkett. Damit wird erstmals sichtbar, was ihre größten Kritiker innerhalb der CDU/CSU und auch außerhalb niemals für möglich gehalten haben - "Mutti" Merkel war für viele deutsche Bürger der einzige Grund, die rückständige Männer- und Wirtschaftspartei CDU/CSU noch ein weiteres Mal zu wählen.

In today’s America, only a slim majority of people register to vote, and a large percentage of registered voters don’t bother to show up: Donald Trump was elected by only 26 percent of eligible voters. Unfortunately, this is not a bug in our system, it’s a feature. Thom Hartmann unveils the strategies and tactics that conservative elites in this country have used, from the foundation of the Electoral College to the latest voter ID laws, to protect their interests by preventing “the wrong people” - such as the poor, women, and people of color - from voting while making it more convenient for the wealthy and white.
