Coming Home? Vol. 1
The wars of the twentieth century uprooted people on a previously unimaginable scale to the extent that being a refugee became an increasingly widespread experience. With the arrival of refugees, governments of host countries had to mediate between divided national populations: some wished to welcome those arriving in search of refuge; others preferred a strategy of exclusion or even expulsion. At the same time, refugees had to manage conflicts of the self as they responded to the loss of nationhood, families, socio-political networks, material goods, and arguably also a sense of belonging or home. While return migration was usually perceived by governments and refugees alike as the best sol...
The Last Survivor
This book proposes an interpretation of Francoism as the Spanish variant of fascism. Unlike Italian fascism and Nazism, the Franco regime survived the Second World War and continued its existence until the death of dictator Francisco Franco.

Some of My Favorite People are Elephants
Some of My Favorite People Are Elephants is a collection of short stories chronicling the author's four years spent traveling with a traditional American circus in the mid-1980s--first as a musician, then (quite unintentionally) as an acrobat and flying trapeze artist. Each short story playfully hints at a life lesson learned by a carefree young man on his unusual journey to adulthood.
Circus Bodies
Examining photographs, illustrations, films and live performances, Peta Tait presents an extraordinary survey of 140 years of trapeze acts and the cultural identities that are presented by bodies in fast, physical aerial movement.
