Box of Memories By: Paulette Atencio, Storyteller In the dumps and abandoned houses of northern New Mexico, two girls search for treasure, chasing childhood fairy tales and family myths and the secrets beneath the surface of their small town.

Young Paulette pries loose floorboards to reveal a small box. A memory box. Their grandfather’s lost secrets. A brief and beautiful memoir, Box of Memories shares the story of the box's discovery and some of the secrets that lay hidden for decades beneath its lid.

World of the Right

The contemporary radical Right is not merely a series of nationalist projects but a global phenomenon. This book shows how radical conservative thinkers have developed long-term counter-hegemonic strategies that challenge prevailing social and political orders both nationally and internationally. At the heart of this ideological project is a critique of liberal globalisation that seeks to mobilise transversal alliances against a common enemy: the 'New Class' of global managerial elites who are accused of undermining national sovereignty, traditional values, and cultures. 'World of the Right' argues that while the radical Right is far from a unified political movement, its calls for sovereignty, civilisational orders, and multipolarity enable complex, strategic convergences with illiberal states such as China and Russia, as well as states and people in the Global South. The potential consequences for the future of the liberal world order are profound and wide-ranging.
