Das resiliente Wir. Wieviel Polarisierung können wir aushalten und wann bricht eine Gesellschaft einfach auseinander? 2015/2016 führt die Flüchtlingskrise zu einem Erstarken rechtspopulistischer Kräfte; 2020 ändert ein neuartiges Virus schlagartig unsere Lebensrealität und wirkt wie ein Brandbeschleuniger für soziale Ungleichheiten; 2022 beginnt Putin vor den Augen der Welt einen Vernichtungskrieg gegen die Ukraine, mit schweren Folgen auch für die deutsche Wirtschaft. Und die größte Krise in Form der sich anbahnenden Klimakatastrophe steht uns erst noch bevor.

Colonists brought a different view of nature, one that saw its resources as commodities to be bought and sold. Over the course of centuries, this conflict of ideologies would continue, one that persists today in courtroom debates surrounding Indigenous rights, on frontlines protesting pipeline projects, and in the hearts and minds of people advocating that "water is life". So when a water protector proclaims "water is life", they speak not just in slogan form, but as part of an ancient philosophy that dates back millennia.

Best-selling author and attorney Mark W. Smith exposes the all-encompassing nature of the anti-gun lobby’s attack on the right to keep and bear arms—and how it serves as a proxy to empower government to control other important aspects of our lives.

This second edition of Marijuana Legalization: What Everyone Needs to Know® discusses what is happening with marijuana policy, describing both the risks and the benefits of using marijuana, without taking sides in the legalization debate.

Dr. Meili argues that health delivery too often focuses on treatment of immediate causes and ignores fundamental conditions that lead to poor health such as income, education, employment, housing, and environment.

The story of the twelve Regional Dialogues and the Uluru National Constitutional Convention has never been told. It is a yarn borne from centuries of struggle, full of vision, determination and courage. These community gatherings, led and attended by fifteen hundred everyday First Peoples, represent the largest ever consultation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in history. Our Voices From The Heart is the official celebration of the grassroots campaign that guided us to this inspiring moment in Australia's history.

È il primo banco e l'ultimo, è il banco di prova. È la scuola, che amiamo e vituperiamo a giorni alterni, sempre considerandola una sorta di mondo a parte, da celebrare in astratto o – troppo spesso – da riformare su basi ideologiche. Ma oggi sta succedendo qualcosa di più. La logica dell'emergenza e il «culto del fenomeno», che stanno affossando il nostro Paese, rischiano di portare allo sfascio anche l'unica istituzione in grado di risollevarlo, ed è tempo di correre ai ripari. Come? Innanzitutto rimettendo al centro gli insegnanti: il ruolo che rivestono, la professionalità che esprimono.

Now, Britain's best-loved institution is under greater threat than ever, besieged by a deadly combination of underfunding, understaffing and the predatory private sector.

But, as Gavin Francis reveals in this short, vital book - it doesn't have to be this way, and until recently, it wasn't.

An engaging account of innovation in healthcare and why the results fall short for patients and society. The evolution of the cell phones we carry in our pockets demonstrates that quality can increase while prices fall. Why doesn't healthcare also get better and cheaper? In Why Not Better and Cheaper?, James B. Rebitzer and Robert S. Rebitzer offer an answer to this question. Bringing together research on incentives, social norms, and market competition, they argue that the healthcare system generates the wrong kinds of innovation.

«I giornali e i media parlano solo di temi politicamente corretti. Non si può scherzare più su nulla. Se usi espressioni come "signore e signori" vieni accusato di non essere inclusivo. La famiglia è quella composta da madre e padre, basta con la lobby gay! Viviamo in una dittatura del pensiero unico e nessuno lo dice.» È davvero così? Ogni volta che in Italia si prova a fare un passo avanti nel campo dei diritti civili o si lotta per la difesa o l'empowerment di quelle che definiamo minoranze, qualcuno immediatamente protesta: «Ma non ci sono cose più importanti?».

La crisis de vivienda existe y no podemos seguir ignorándola. Nuestras ciudades son cada vez más inhabitables: cada vez más caras, más distantes, más precarizadas y con menos servicios. Miles de personas están preocupadas por su imposibilidad de adquirir unavivienda en propiedad o, incluso, en arrendamiento. Sin embargo, esta problemática sigue siendo percibida como una preocupación individualizada y no como el problema estructural que realmente es.

Både velfærds- og konkurrencestaten har som analytiske perspektiver og som fungerende statsformer vist sig utilstrækkelige, når det drejer sig om at handle på klima- og biodiversitetskriserne. De to ideologisk konkurrerende statsformer, der både fylder i den offentlige debat og er på pensumlisterne på alle landets læreanstalter, hverken handler eller svarer på de enorme kriser, men er tværtimod med til at forværre dem. Og de politikere, der bebor de gamle statsformer, virker handlingslammede imens protesterne vokser.

On January 22, 1973, the United States Supreme Court released two interlocked abortion decisions overturning the laws of all the individual states. Only one of the decisions, Roe v. Wade, tends to get much media attention, and it is popularly said that it grants a "woman's right to choose". But Justice Blackmun is in several places very adamant: Though it had been explicitly sought, he was not granting to women the "right to choose". In Doe v. Bolton, the second and often unexamined companion decision, Blackmun is explicit. The right he is granting is to the doctor.

As we grapple with the world's worst pandemic for a century, our minds are on our health more than ever. But what should we rightfully expect of doctors? In this original and thought-provoking book, Sir David Haslam explores what good healthcare should achieve and asks how we pay for it. Informed by patient stories and data from across the world—from US big pharma to Britain's NHS—this is an urgent and often moving examination of our most important asset: our health.

These three friends – who between them have almost a century of expertise in international economics, business and global government – began talking over zoom at the start of the pandemic. They wanted to discuss the challenges the world was facing: unanticipated shocks, poor policy responses, struggling coordination. But the more they talked, the more they realised there was nothing pre-ordained about the gloomy path we’re on now.

Ohne Kinder würde später niemand unsere Rente bezahlen; die alten Menschen haben unsere Wohlstand aufgebaut.

Many experts believe that we are at a fulcrum moment in history, a time that demands radical shifts in thinking and policymaking. Calls for bold change are everywhere these days, particularly on social media, but is this actually the best way to make the world a better place? In Gradual, Greg Berman and Aubrey Fox argue that, contrary to the aspirations of activists on both the right and the left, incremental reform is the best path forward.

America's greatness comes from people working hard to fulfill their dreams. But today that greatness is being undermined by people using the government to steal other people's dreams (and money). Rather than participate and innovate in the marketplace, generating goods and services that benefit...

In a society marked by extreme inequality of income and opportunity, why should economists care about how people feel? The truth is that feelings of well-being are critical metrics that predict future life outcomes. In this timely and innovative account, economist Carol Graham argues for the importance of hope—little studied in economics at present—as an independent dimension of well-being.

Our legal system often feels like it only works for the rich and powerful - for those who have the means to use the courts to enforce their will and defend their interests. But we can fight back. Jolyon Maugham KC founded Good Law Project in 2017 with the belief that the law can also put power in the hands of ordinary people. . It has brought a series of landmark cases against a dishonest and increasingly autocratic government and won widespread acclaim in successfully reversing Boris Johnson's unlawful suspension of Parliament.

In July 2016, inner-city resident Judy Ryan found a young man—one of ‘her regulars'—slumped and quiet at her gate. He had overdosed from heroin. Fortunately, that man lived. But Judy had reached breaking point. After four years in a ‘war zone', where children might encounter a body on the streets, enough was enough. Knowing little about what she was getting into, but fired with resolve, Judy launched a grassroots campaign against apathy and prejudice.
