Tough on Crime
A prison in Gatineau Park? Tougher sentencing laws to fill it up? Something about this plan smells. After losing seats in the election, a (less than) honourable Prime Minister decides to do things his way with a massive new tough-on-crime bill. Finally, he'll have the power to silence his critics once and for all. It was all going according to plan until word gets out to the feisty mayor of Riverdale, Quebec, who decides to fight back. Rallying behind their mascot, Arthur the skunk, she and the town pull out all the stops to end the Government's charade. Then it's the Prime Minister's turn to face the music.

Senseless Acts of Beauty
Welcome to the social and environmental devastation that is Britain in 1996. Welcome to interchangeable political parties and their chattering media jesters pulling together to make Johnny Rotten's dream come true: no future.

We Stay the Same
Written in a clear and relatable style for students, We Stay the Same combines ethnographic and ecological research to show how the people of New Hanover, Papua New Guinea, continue to survive and make meaningful lives in a situation where their own hopes for economic development via logging and commercial agriculture have often been used against them as a mechanism of a more distantly profitable dispossession.
Festival Cultures
This book brings together interdisciplinary research from the fields of Anthropology, Sociology, Archaeology, Art, History and Religious Studies, showing the necessity of a transdisciplinary and diachronic approach to examine the last half-century of modern arts and performance festivals. The volume focuses on new theoretical and methodological approaches for the examination of festivals and festival cultures, both the Burning Man festival in Nevada's Black Rock Desert and burner culture in Europe. The editors argue that festival cultures are becoming values-inflected global forms of travel, dwelling, festivity, communication, and social organisation that are transforming contemporary cultures and have significant political capital.
