The Watchtower's Coming Crisis
A devastating crisis has the Jehovah's Witness religion facing extinction. Chances are that you have never met a real “Jehovah’s Witness.” While those at your door may claim to be one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, their own publications plainly teach otherwise. So, who are the real Jehovah’s Witnesses? The Watchtower Society teaches that they are members of the 144,000 who will be the only ones going to heaven. Membership in this group began with the early apostles. Over the centuries others have been added but the Watchtower declared that the number was completed in 1935. Anyone who claims to be one of Jehovah’s’ Witnesses has to be one of the 144,000 and must be very old now. Howev...

Lake/Flato
In this contribution to the ongoing debates over theorizing state power, the author draws on her fieldwork in Mexico to examine the ways in which local agrarian communities negotiate with the state and with local bureaucracies in an apparently hopeless round of mismanagement and corruption - which yet contains a self-correcting stability. While the ethnography focuses on a particular community at a time of transition, the author draws out the wider implications in ways that should be of interest not only to anthropologists concerned with Mexican ethnography, but also to students of political anthropology, more generally, and development studies.
Jehovah's Witnesses: Behind Closed Doors
Similar to other Bible-based religious cults, the Watchtower Bible and Tracy Society had prophesied the end of the world for the year 1975. During that time, the Jehovah's Witnesses were actually encouraged to sell their homes and property in preparation for "the end." While many Witnesses were busy selling their homes and property, the Watchtower Society was purchasing property in Brooklyn, New York the same year the world was supposed to end. This book details the stories of fictitious characters set in a historic setting documented by the Watchtower Society's own literature. When the end failed to materialize, the Watchtower Society never assumed responsibility for the failed prophecy. Instead, the leadership blamed their own followers.The reader will experience first hand what the Witnesses experienced during that time.
Planetary Health
Human health depends on the health of the planet. Earth’s natural systems—the air, the water, the biodiversity, the climate—are our life support systems. Yet climate change, biodiversity loss, scarcity of land and freshwater, pollution and other threats are degrading these systems. The emerging field of planetary health aims to understand how these changes threaten our health and how to protect ourselves and the rest of the biosphere. Planetary Health: Protecting Nature to Protect Ourselves provides a readable introduction to this new paradigm. With an interdisciplinary approach, the book addresses a wide range of health impacts felt in the Anthropocene, including food and nutrition, i...
