Rodrigo Duterte was elected President of the Philippines in 2016. In his first 18 months in office, 12,000 people were murdered on the streets, gunned down by police officers and vigilante citizens - all with his encouragement. Duterte is a serial womanizer and a self-confessed killer, who has called both Barack Obama and Pope Francis "sons of whores." He is on record as saying he does not "give a shit" about human rights. Yet he is beloved of the 16.6 million Filipinos who voted for him, seen as vulgar but honest, a breath of fresh air, and an iconoclastic, anti-imperialist rebel.

Was wäre, wenn jeder von uns Monat für Monat 1200 Euro überwiesen bekäme? Vom Staat. Einfach so. 1200 Euro, mit denen jeder von uns seine existenziellen Grundbedürfnisse wie Nahrung, Wohnen, Wärme - abdecken könnte. Ohne jegliche Bedingung. Zu schön, um wahr zu sein? War das eben Ihr erster Gedanke? Ist es nicht erschreckend, dass man sich nicht einmal in Gedanken dem Traum eines bedingungslosen Grundeinkommens hingeben kann, ohne sich selbst einen Fantasten zu schimpfen? Wie aber soll dieses "Menschenrecht" jemals Wirklichkeit werden, wenn wir uns schon den Gedanken an dieses Grundrecht verwehren?

The national security and civil liberties tensions of the World War II mass incarceration link 9/11 and the 2015 Paris-San Bernardino attacks to the Trump era in America - an era darkened by accelerating discrimination against and intimidation of those asserting rights of freedom of religion, association and speech, and an era marked by increasingly volatile protests. This book discusses the broad civil liberties challenges posed by these past-into-the-future linkages.

Wie die Konzerne den Staat als Geisel nehmen und uns beherrschen Internationale Konzerne hinterziehen Steuern, schädigen die Umwelt, verstoßen gegen Menschenrechte und diktieren den Politikern die Gesetzesvorlagen. Und das oft ganz legal. Doch damit nicht genug: Sie werden immer dreister und nutzen die Freiräume und Schlupflöcher immer hemmungsloser. Thilo Bode zeigt erstmals das ganze Bild dieser neuen Diktatur der Konzerne, in deren Würgegriff wir Bürger zunehmend geraten.

Reports of sexual violence in armed conflict frequently appear in political discussions and news media, presenting a stark contrast to a long history of silence and nonrecognition. Conflict-related sexual violence has transitioned rapidly from a neglected human rights issue to an unambiguous security concern on the agendas of powerful states and the United Nations Security Council. Through interviews and primary-source evidence, Kerry F. Crawford investigates the reasons for this dramatic change and the implications of the securitization of sexual violence.

American public opinion tends to be sticky. Although the news cycle might temporarily affect the public's mood on contentious issues like abortion, the death penalty, or gun control, public opinion toward these issues has remained remarkably constant over decades.

Listen, We Need to Talk tests a new theory about how to change people's attitudes on controversial topics.

The massacre of the Yazidi people by ISIS was nothing less than genocide. In refugee camps in Iraqi Kurdistan, the authors brought a skilled team to interview more than a hundred ISIS survivors and document what they experienced and saw.
