"Nessuno parla mai dei crimini del comunismo!": sul serio? Dagli eccidi perpetrati dai bolscevichi al massacro di Piazza Tienanmen a Pechino, i crimini dei regimi comunisti o sedicenti tali non sono mai stati sconosciuti, anche quando si è provato a tacerli o negarli; hanno accompagnato la storia del secolo scorso come un’ombra cupa e assillante, condizionandone il corso.

But what most of us don't know is what became of Eric Liddell in the years after the credits rolled. As the storm clouds of World War II rolled in, Liddell's strength of character led him to choose an uncertain future in China during World War II to continue helping the Chinese.

"Sono rimasti inchiodati a lungo nella mia mente, ognuno nella sua vicenda. Pezzi di storia che ci siamo voluti lasciare alle spalle per illuderci che si possa fare finta di niente.

This iconoclastic study was one of the most widely debated books of 2000. Finkelstein indicts with vigor and honesty those who exploit the tragedy of the Holocaust for their own personal political and financial gain.

Wer hätte sich vor wenigen Jahren vorstellen können, dass Krieg wieder zu einer zentralen Bedrohung unserer Welt werden könnte? Was bringt Menschen dazu, andere Menschen zu töten? Dazu müssen wir nach den evolutionären Wurzeln von Gewalt und Aggression forschen und deren Wucherungen durch die menschliche Geschichte hindurch rekonstruieren. Die drei Autoren verbinden anhand von Fallgeschichten die Erkentnisse aus Archäologie, Evolutionärer Anthropologie und den Religions- und Geschichtswissenschaften, um in dieser Menschheitsgeschichte der Gewalt aufzuzeigen, unter welchen Bedingungen es zu Krieg, Mord und Totschlag kommt.

Confían en que se aprenda del sufrimiento, en que se esclarezca la verdad y se haga justicia y, sobre todo, en que lo que ellos han tenido que vivir no se repita jamás.

Colmadas de datos y análisis históricos, estas páginas transparentan el contexto del conflicto árabe-israelí, el rol del fundamentalismo islámico promovido por Irán y Qatar, y la violencia de quienes, con desconocimiento o mala fe, se manifiestan contra Israel y los judíos con un antisemitismo permisivo y mordaz, desatado con virulencia a partir del 7 de octubre. Hoy, advierte la autora, están en juego las libertades y los valores democráticos de Occidente.

In Motherland, Ioffe turns modern Russian history on its head, telling it exclusively through the stories of its women. From her own physician great-grandmothers to Lenin’s lover, a feminist revolutionary; from the hundreds of thousands of Soviet girls who fought in World War II to the millions of single mothers who rebuilt and repopulated a devastated country; from the members of Pussy Riot to Yulia Navalnaya, wife of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, she chronicles one of the most audacious social experiments in history and how it failed the very women it was meant to liberate.
