Environmental justice recognizes that environmental benefits and burdens should be distributed fairly, and that the people making policy decisions should incorporate the views of those most often harmed: people of color, Indigenous populations, low-income communities, and those who are underserved and disenfranchised for other reasons such as age, gender, or disability. It encompasses not only traditional environmental issues like clean air and clean water, but also social issues such as employment, nutrition, and access to health care.

Psychogeography. In recent years, this term has been used to illustrate a bewildering array of ideas from ley lines and the occult, to urban walking and political radicalism. But where does it come from and what exactly does it mean?

Otage du cirque démocratique, Monsieur Moyen vote, râle, consomme, renonce. Il se résigne à son destin confisqué, à sa nation défigurée. Plutôt fuir qu’affronter ses responsabilités. Plutôt ramper que se battre. Le mal gagne donc par forfait.

Pedofilia, nekrofilia, kazirodztwo, flagelacja, sadyzm, brutalne gwałty, a także czarnoksięstwo, profanacja trupów, miłosne napoje – to tylko niektóre wątki bulwersującej książki Elwiry Watały.

Autorka obnaża różne dewiacje seksualne władców i wielkich tego świata, także tych, których zwykliśmy uważać za wzór cnót.

Human geography offers answers to some of the most important challenges of our time. To understand contemporary struggles over global economic inequality, forced migration, racial injustice, gender justice, and the climate crisis, we must grasp the ways in which these are fought over and through space.

The United States is an exceptionally violent country, increasingly unable or unwilling to stem violence in its many forms. A growing corporate crime wave has gone unprosecuted and unpunished. Meanwhile, the country has doubled down on pursuing people accused of street and drug crimes and immigration offenses. Corporate impunity, the financialization of the economy, militarized policing, the burgeoning carceral state, and the forever wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere all have fostered corporate, economic, and state violence in America.

Police Against the Movement shatters one of the most pernicious myths about the 1960s: that the civil rights movement endured police violence without fighting it. Instead, as Joshua Clark Davis shows, activists from the Congress of Racial Equality and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee confronted police abuses head-on, staging sit-ins at precinct stations, picketing outside department headquarters, and blocking city streets to protest officer misdeeds.

Compulsive Body Spaces presents a spatial understanding of compulsion. Providing a compelling account of the lives of 15 people with Tourette syndrome, it demystifies the seemingly irrational, purposeless and meaningless character of this behaviour. It demonstrates how attending to the spatial circumstances under which compulsive acts, like touching, ordering, and aligning objects take place, can produce valuable new insights to complement neuroscientific, psychiatric and psychological knowledge.

Come si fa oggi a stare nel mondo? In questo mondo. A trovare un modo, un posto adatto a noi che siamo consapevoli di essere privilegiati ma dobbiamo fare i conti anche coi nostri, di traumi, piccoli o grandi, oltre che con quelli giganteschi di chi è sotto le bombe, di chi è oppresso, povero, svantaggiato. Ci si vergogna a dire che ci si sente soli, ma lo siamo sempre di più. Daria Bignardi lo dice con sincerità, ironia, coraggio. Sente che la solitudine può essere una prigione ma anche un posto da cui ascoltare il battito del cuore del mondo. Il mondo la chiama e lei parte.

Despite the flames of record-breaking temperatures licking at our feet, most people fail to fully grasp the gravity of environmental overheating. What acquired habits and conveniences allow us to turn a blind eye with an air of detachment? Using examples from the hottest places on earth, Heat, a History shows how scientific methods of accounting for heat and modern forms of acclimatization have desensitized us to climate change.

Donald Worster looks back over 200,000 years of Homo sapiens to show how human nature, especially the drive for food and sex, has responded to environmental conditions throughout history. Examining how this process led from foraging to the agrarian revolution and then to a capitalist way of life, Worster brings us face to face with a third transformation of human society that is beginning to take shape in China: an ecological civilization.
