From Europe to the United States, opportunistic politicians have exploited the economic crisis, terrorist attacks, and an unprecedented influx of refugees to bring hateful and reactionary views from the margins of political discourse into the mainstream. They have won the votes of workers, women, gays, and Jews; turned openly xenophobic ideas into state policy; and pulled besieged centrist parties to the right. How did we get here?

Este libro trata de la inmigración masiva, la violencia sexual y los derechos de las mujeres en Europa. Trata de un fracaso colosal por parte de la clase dirigente europea. Y trata de las soluciones al problema, de las falsas y de las reales. En los últimos años, el debate en torno a la inmigración, la integración y el islam en Europa se ha intensificado en respuesta a los atentados terroristas, a la prédica de un islam radical en algunas mezquitas y centros de culto, al resurgimiento de partidos populistas y de extrema derecha....

Der Kampf gegen den Rassismus ist eine Menschheitsaufgabe. Hamed Abdel-Samad hat Rassismus erlebt: In Ägypten wurde er als hellhäutiger Kreuzritterbastard denunziert, in Deutschland ist seine Haut manchen zu dunkel, sein Name anderen zu muslimisch. Dieses erfahrungssatte Buch ist kein Bericht der Betroffenheit. Es ist die Analyse eines durch Globalisierung, Migration und Vorfälle in den USA auch hierzulande angeheizten Themas.

An den europäischen Außengrenzen werden vielfach Menschenrechte gebrochen. Geflüchtete werden ohne Zugang zu Asylverfahren zurückgewiesen, eingesperrt, auf dem Meer ausgesetzt und misshandelt. Erik Marquardt sitzt für die Grünen im EU-Parlament und war in den letzten Jahren immer wieder auf der Balkanroute, auf Lesbos und bei der Seenotrettung auf dem Mittelmeer. In seinem Buch macht er die Diskrepanz zwischen dem europäischen Bekenntnis zu Menschenrechten und -würde und der Wirklichkeit vor Ort deutlich.

Hasnain Kazim ist nicht nur Journalist und Bestsellerautor, vor einigen Jahren hat er sich auch eine zweite Identität zugelegt - als Kalif. Das war seine nicht ganz ernst gemeinte Antwort auf die permanenten Ängste von Menschen vor einer "Islamisierung des Abendlandes" und auf Dauervorwürfe von Rechtsextremisten, er sei in Wahrheit ein "Islamist", der "Deutschland islamisieren" wolle.

Nella ricostruzione di Gian Antonio Stella, ricca di fatti, personaggi, aneddoti, documenti, storie ignote o sconvolgenti, compare l'altra faccia della grande emigrazione italiana. Quella che meglio dovremmo conoscere proprio per capire, rispettare e amare ancora di più i nostri nonni, padri, madri e sorelle che partirono. Quella che abbiamo rimosso per ricordare solo gli "zii d'America" arricchiti e vincenti.

"Eliminare il razzismo non vuol dire mostrare e convincersi che gli Altri non sono diversi da noi, ma comprendere e accettare la loro diversità." Dopo "Il fascismo eterno", una nuova illuminante riflessione civile, contro ogni pregiudizio e intolleranza.

"Ein Mann, der uns mit einem radikal anderen Blick auf die Welt zum Nachdenken zwingt", urteilt Bundespräsident Steinmeier über den Denker aus Singapur. Diesen anderen, neuen Blick stellt Parag Khanna in "Move" eindrucksvoll unter Beweis. Er bringt Geschichte, Politik und die natürlichen Lebensbedingungen des Menschen, die sich gerade rasant verändern, zusammen und leitet daraus Voraussagen für die Zukunft ab. Seine Grundthese: Die Menschheit wird sich in den nächsten Jahrzehnten neu auf der Erde verteilen (müssen).

In the 60,000 years since people began colonizing the continents, a recurring feature of human civilization has been mobility - the ever-constant search for resources and stability. Seismic global events - wars and genocides, revolutions and pandemics - have only accelerated the process. The map of humanity isn’t settled - not now, not ever.

Deeply informed by archival research and current scholarship, but written as a reflective and intimate memoir, What the Oceans Remember addresses current issues in migration, identity, belonging and history through an interrogation of race, ethnicity, gender, archives and memory. More importantly, it addresses the relevance of our past to understanding our present. It shows the multiplicity of identities and origins that can shape the way we understand our histories and our own selves.

The inspiring true story of one man’s treacherous boyhood journey from a rural village in Ghana to the streets of Barcelona - and the path that led him home.

In conversations with drivers ranging from veterans of foreign wars to Indigenous women protecting one another, Di Cintio explores the borderland of the North American taxi.

We live in an age of displacement. Refugee numbers are increasing due to a proliferation of fragile states. And yet, rising populist nationalism has undermined the political willingness of rich countries to accept migrants and asylum seekers. Given these contradictory trends, how can we create sustainable refugee policies that enable displaced people to live in safety and dignity, while operating at scale? The Wealth of Refugees draws upon a decade of original qualitative and quantitative research to offer practical solutions.

All They Will Call You is the harrowing account of "the worst airplane disaster in California's history", which claimed the lives of 32 passengers, including 28 Mexican citizens - farmworkers who were being deported by the US government. Outraged that media reports omitted only the names of the Mexican passengers, American folk icon Woody Guthrie penned a poem that went on to become one of the most important protest songs of the 20th century.

From Annie Moore, the Irishwoman who was the first to be processed there, to Arne Peterssen, the Norwegian who was the last to be taken away from the island in 1954, Ellis Island weaves together the personal experiences of forgotten individuals with those who live on in history: Fiorello La Guardia, Lee Iacocca, and other American leaders whose paths led them to the island for various reasons.

Three experts in immigration law offer a comprehensive examination of the rise and demise of the US asylum system. Beginning with the Refugee Act of 1980, they describe how Congress adopted a definition of refugee based on the UN Refugee Convention and prescribed equitable and transparent procedures for a uniform asylum process. The authors then chart the evolution of this process, showing how Republican and Democratic administrations and Congresses tweaked the asylum system but maintained it as a means of protecting victims of persecution - until the Trump administration.

For all of the energy that the far right has demonstrated - and for all of the support that they receive from institutional conservatives in the GOP and affiliated organizations - the United States is experiencing an upsurge in left-wing social movements unlike any other in the past half-century, with roots not in the Democratic Party but Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter. Drawing on his original reporting as well as archival research, O’Connor investigates how the capitalist class and the radical right mobilize racism to defend their interests....

Inside Syria and Iraq, and even along the refugee trail, they’re a religious minority persecuted for their Christian faith. Outside the Middle East, they’re suspect because of their nationality. A small remnant of Christians is on the run from the Islamic State. If they are wiped out, or scattered to the corners of the earth, the language that Jesus spoke may be lost forever - along with the witness of a church that has modeled Jesus’ way of nonviolence and enemy-love for two millennia.

Drawing on astute political analysis and extensive reporting from around the world, Return: Why We Go Back to Where We Come From illuminates a personal quest.
