La ragazza della mattonaia
Tante vicende in una, una vera odissea, un prolungato e ostico percorso attraverso luoghi lontani e sconosciuti alla ricerca di una soluzione esauriente e risolutiva alla sua vita, cui Luca, il protagonista, perverrà solo alla fine del suo lungo e travagliato vagabondaggio. Ma lo scotto sarà la vita di chi a lui la vita l’ha data, che egli riconoscerà come un atto dovuto onde meritarsi una vita finalmente normale, come pure la consapevolezza che la meta a cui ognuno di noi aspira se la deve guadagnare con le proprie mani, poiché nulla è gratis a questo mondo, tantomeno ciò che già ci appartiene.
Photography and Invisible Borders
Think of national borders beyond just lines: this invitation guides Nicoletta Grillo’s journey into the Swiss-Italian border, a journey shaped through the lens of photography theory and practice. Moving between contemporary cross-border work and south-north migrations, this study unveils today’s borderscapes as dynamic constellations of spatial practices and imaginations. The book delves into landscape representations by combining the analysis of contemporary photographic artwork with field research and with the author’s own photographs, displayed in an extensive photo-textual travelogue. Perspectives from critical border studies, research in the arts, and urban studies come together to offer a larger reflection on the re-imagination of borderscapes.
Sanctions
"Even before the extensive sanctions imposed on Russia for its 2022 invasion of Ukraine, it was hard to browse the news without seeing reports of yet another set of sanctions. The United States has sanctions against over 30 countries as well as drug traffickers, terrorist organizations and specially designated individuals. China long has been a target of sanctions and in recent years increasingly a wielder against countries and companies even organizations like the National Basketball Association (NBA). Russia also has been sanctions sender as well as target. The European Union has joined some of the American sanctions as well as imposing its own. In some cases the United Nations has authori...
Russia's Crony Capitalism
A penetrating look into the extreme plutocracy Vladimir Putin has created and its implications for Russia's future This insightful study explores how the economic system Vladimir Putin has developed in Russia works to consolidate control over the country. By appointing his close associates as heads of state enterprises and by giving control of the FSB and the judiciary to his friends from the KGB, he has enriched his business friends from Saint Petersburg with preferential government deals. Thus, Putin has created a super wealthy and loyal plutocracy that owes its existence to authoritarianism. Much of this wealth has been hidden in offshore havens in the United States and the United Kingdom, where companies with anonymous owners and black money transfers are allowed to thrive. Though beneficial to a select few, this system has left Russia's economy in untenable stagnation, which Putin has tried to mask through military might.

Il principe del male
Niccolò è appena un bambino quando la congiura ordita contro la famiglia più potente della città insanguina Firenze. In mezzo alla folla riunita davanti al Palazzo della Signoria assiste alla spietata reazione di Lorenzo de' Medici: i congiurati impiccati alle finestre e poi gettati sulla piazza. Da allora il fuoco della curiosità brucerà nel suo cuore, insieme a un'intelligenza e una capacità di indagare l'animo umano fuori dal comune. E sarà grazie a essi che Machiavelli potrà attraversare gli anni più violenti e travagliati del '500 da testimone lucido e privilegiato: nei picchi e nelle cadute della sorte, tra il sangue dei campi di battaglia e le bugie e la corruzione delle stanze del potere.

SONO LE ANIME NERE DELLA STORIA D'ITALIA: CONDOTTIERI, POLITICI, SOLDATI AUDACI E SPREGIUDICATI MOSSI DA UN'INARRESTABILE SETE DI POTERE.

Nationalism in Contemporary Europe
This book proposes a conceptualisation of nationalism with a multilevel operational character. It offers three different perspectives on nationalism that consider both the discursive structure and the discursive agency of nationalism. It also demonstrates a number of intra-phenomenal and extra-phenomenal constraints on nationalism. This book underlines that nationalism in contemporary Europe should not be regarded in terms of methodological homogeneity and conceptual uniformity, ideological rigidity or strategic consistency but rather as a contested, segmented, bounded and contextual phenomenon.
