Follow Fucking Orders
The brutal 2010 murders of promising footballer Eddie Moussa and his brother were a harbinger of the gang violence now laying siege to Sweden. Written by crime reporter Ann Toernkvist, Follow Fucking Orders captures the freefall of a quaint town, known for its sports-crazed community and top-league football team, into a bloody turf war. After the biggest police investigation into organised crime in Swedish history, the local mob boss was sentenced to life for ordering the hit on Eddie. Author Ann Toernkvist followed the gripping story for five years, securing unique access to families who had fled into the witness protection programme. In 2016, the mob boss tried to derail this book's publication by threatening to have her killed. Undeterred, Toernkvist published Follow Fucking Orders in Sweden in 2018. The first edition sold out within a week and soon became the most popular book in the country's maximum-security prisons. Ultimately, the book offers a chilling reminder that true crime has no last chapter.

The Fear of Islam, Second Edition
The Fear of Islam investigates the context of Western views of Islam and offers an introduction to the historical roots and contemporary anxiety regarding Islam within the Western world. Tracing the medieval legacy of religious polemics and violence, Green orients readers to the complex history and issues of Western relations to Islam, from early and late modern colonial enterprises and theories of "Orientalism," to the production of religious discourses of otherness and the clash of civilizations that proliferated in the era of 9/11 and the war on terror. In this second edition, Green brings the reader up to date, examining the Islamophobic rhetoric of the 2016 US presidential election and ...
The Future of Money
A cutting-edge look at how accelerating financial change, from the end of cash to the rise of cryptocurrencies, will transform economies for better and worse. We think weÕve seen financial innovation. We bank from laptops and buy coffee with the wave of a phone. But these are minor miracles compared with the dizzying experiments now underway around the globe, as businesses and governments alike embrace the possibilities of new financial technologies. As Eswar Prasad explains, the world of finance is at the threshold of major disruption that will affect corporations, bankers, states, and indeed all of us. The transformation of money will fundamentally rewrite how ordinary people live. Above ...
Advarsel
"Svenske tilstander" har blitt et skjellsord i Norge. Mens biler settes i brann, parallellsamfunnene vokser og voldelige gjenger får herje i vårt naboland, har Norge vært forskånet fra utviklingen. Eller har vi det? I "Advarsel" forteller den rutinerte gravejournalisten Einar Haakaas en sjokkerende historie om hvordan gjengen Young Bloods vokste fram i bydelen Holmlia. Han følger gjengens sentrale medlemmer fra ungdomstiden til i dag. Det er en rystende historie om vold, tortur og lukrative narkotikamarkeder. Han snakker med Holmlia-beboere som har fått nok av en gjeng som har fått herje nesten fritt i bydelen, og tar samtidig turen til våre naboland for å sammenlikne. Nådeløst avdekker han hvordan politikere og politi - med et par hederlige unntak - har skjønnmalt og bortforklart utviklingen. Dramatisk, ærlig og brennaktuell - denne boka dokumenterer at de svenske tilstandene er på vei til Norge. Einar Haakaas har skrevet en sterk advarsel mot en samfunnsutvikling de færreste ønsker.

Den inbillade kloke - Om konsten att förneka verkligheten
Uppdaterad upplaga med ny och ännu mer aktuell information. Hur kom det sig att debatten i Sverige förvandlades till något av en intellektuell återvändsgränd, dominerad av människor som tycks ha fastnat i en närmast verklighetsresistent åsiktskorridor? Där alla som ifrågasatte eller försökte problematisera det officiella narrativet beträffande ämnen som migrationspolitik, den grova brottsligheten, klimatförändring eller genusteorier, reflexmässigt stämplades som rasister, nazister, stollar och sexister? Vad baserar de som anser sig ha tolkningsföreträde i dessa frågor egentligen sina påståenden på? Och hur kan det komma sig att styrande politiker, från vänster till höger, har kunnat tillåta en utveckling där Sverige utvecklats till ett av Europas våldsammaste länder och blivit känt som ett paradis för kriminella och en bankomat för bedragare? Med basis i den forskning som finns tillgänglig försöker författaren finna svaren på dessa frågor och titta på möjliga lösningar.
