Until I Become Home
Until I Become Home je skupnostna časopisna publikacija, ki se osredotoča na Balkansko begunsko pot in ljudi, ki jo poskušajo prečkati. Publikacija se z različnimi pisnimi in vizualnimi razmisleki osredotoča na pot, ki jo ljudje, ki bežijo pred vojno, konflikti, revščino ali preganjanjem opravijo, preden dosežejo svoje zatočišče v Evropski uniji. Življenja ljudi na Balkanski begunski poti, so pogosto potisnjena na obrobje in pogosto skrita v improviziranih taboriščih v gozdovih in zapuščenih stavbah. Vendar gozdovi vzdolž begunske poti ne skrivajo le beguncev temveč zakrivajo tudi institucionalizirano nasilje držav članic Evropske unije, ki uporabljajo brutalna sredstva in taktike, da bi ustavile migracije, hkrati pa vse bolj kriminalizirajo solidarnost lokalnega prebivalstva. Gosti gozdovi in globoke reke skrivajo tudi smrt mnogih, ki so se na poti izgubili, omagali, umrli od lakote in tistih, ki so na poti izgubili moč. Until I Become Home skozi izjave, poezijo, eseje, ustno zgodovino in vizualni arhiv poskuša odstirati pogled na zgodbe ljudi na poti, ki pogosto ostajajo izgubljena ali skrita.
Lying Beyond Scruples
Lies and manipulations have long been part of social life, but the rise of Trump and Trumpism has made these practices excessively blatant and obscene, challenging our ability to respond effectively. This book explores this shift through sociological, anthropological, philosophical, and communicological perspectives, analysing the emergence of a new form of lying and manipulation—anti-/non-/post-truthful, anti-/non-/post-ethical, and anti-/non-/post-reflexive. Using the Slovenian case of Trump-inspired practices, Kotnik presents an analytical model of resistance as a means of self-empowerment against these disruptive and harmful tactics. She examines how open liars and transparent manipulators have become socially tolerable in our increasingly "mentirocratic" societies and argues that it is crucial to resist these practices both in principle and in action. Kotnik's work offers a stimulating investigation into why the open lie and transparent manipulation have become socially acceptable and why they must be actively opposed.

A Memory Without Evidence
A Memory without Evidence ('Spomin brez dokazov') je skupnostna publikacija, v kateri so predstavljene pripovedi beguncev in ljudi na poti, ki so prečkali balkansko begunsko pot in jim je uspelo priti v Evropsko unijo. Publikacija, ki je nastala na podlagi skupnosntih delavnic in dialogov z razseljenimi skupnostmi, predstavlja zgodbe tistih, ki so ujetost za rezilno žico, minami in sistemskim nasiljem na balkanski begunski poti, zamenjali za ujetništvo v azilnem sistemu EU. Za mnoge, ki so sodelovali pri nastajanju publikacije, se boj za njihov obstoj, priznanje in svobodo ne konča, ko dosežejo varno zatočišče, temveč ostaja nedosežen cilj. Prispevki so razdeljeni na tri segmente: V zaporih in taboriščih; Rojeni v begunstvo in 4517 kilometrov pozneje. Vsak od njih ponuja kritičen, poetičen in poglobljen razmislek o različnih vprašanjih, povezanih zbegunstvom. Pobudnik skupnega projekta je bil fotograf in umetnik Jošt Franko, ki je publikacijo uredil skupaj s Ziedom Abdellaouijem.
Anna Meyer Internetionale
In Meyer's work, the glittering temptations of a global consumer culture are set opposite that culture's losers--figures hapless in the face of the promises of happiness made by the mass-media, advertising and shopping culture. Whomever cannot keep up with this system is brutally pushed to its periphery.
Surface Properties of Non-conventional Cellulose Fibres
The authors describe how sustainable textile fibers from crops such as quinoa, grass, hops, corn and wheat stems, etc. have recently begun to generate great interest. The structure-property relationships of such non-conventional cellulose fibers are studied in this brief, as are their sorption and surface properties which are of primary importance. A systematic review of each fiber's properties is given, the emphasis is placed on the water sorption capacity, the fiber's surface potential, and fibrillation properties.
Third Cinema, World Cinema and Marxism
Third Cinema, World Cinema and Marxism offers an analysis of Third Cinema and World Cinema from the perspective of Marxism. Its starting point is an observation that of all cinematic phenomena none is as intimately related to Marxism as Third Cinema, which decries neoliberalism, the capitalist system, and the Hollywood model of cinema as mere entertainment to make money. This is largely to do with the fact that both Marxism and Third Cinema are preoccupied with inequalities resulting from capital accumulation, of which colonialism is the most extreme manifestation. Third Cinema also defines cinematic modes in terms of representing interest of different classes, with First Cinema expressing imperialist, capitalist, bourgeois ideas, Second Cinema the aspirations of the middle stratum, the petit bourgeoisie and Third Cinema is a democratic, popular cinema.
