Studi tentang gerakan mahasiswa merupakan salah satu bagian penting dari studi gerakan sosial. Dibandingkan studi gerakan petani, buruh, nasionalisme, dan nativisme yang sering berwajah keras, maka studi gerakan mahasiswa mempunyai varian khas dan kompleks. Dinilai khas karena studi gerakan mahasiswa seringkali berwajah “oposisi” terhadap negara. Di negara mana pun mahasiswa selalu menempatkan dirinya kritis terhadap negara. Lebih dari itu, studi gerakan mahasiswa juga mengandung 3 aspek teori gerakan sosial, yaitu aspek konflik, perilaku kolektif (collective behavior), dan perubahan sosial. Makna penting dari membaca buku Makassar Kota Demonstran adalah kita membaca suatu kekuatan politik oposisi yang konsisten, radikal, dan keras terhadap negara. Dan itu adalah mahasiswa Kota Makassar. Bukan hanya mahasiswa Jakarta, Bandung, dan Yogyakarta. Asri Abdullah dan Ostaf Al Mustafa berhasil mengungkapkan dan menarasikan pentingnya mahasiswa Kota Makassar.

Clear and compact guidance on integrating mindfulness into practice This clear and concise book provides practical, evidence-based guidance on the use of mindfulness in treatment: its mechanism of action, the disorders for which there is empirical evidence of efficacy, mindfulness practices and techniques, and how to integrate them into clinical practice. Leading experts describe the concepts and roots of mindfulness, and examine the science that has led to this extraordinarily rich and ancient practice becoming a foundation to many contemporary, evidenced-based approaches in psychotherapy. The efficacy of mindfulness-based interventions in conditions as diverse as borderline personality disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, alcohol and substance use, emotional dysregulation, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, chronic stress, eating disorders, and other medical conditions including type 2 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis is also described. The book is invaluable reading for all those curious about the current science around mindfulness and about how and when to incorporate it effectively into clinical practice.
Slaves and Slave Agency in the Ottoman Empire offers a new contribution to slavery studies relating to the Ottoman Empire. Given the fact that the classical binary of ‘slavery’ and ‘freedom’ derives from the transatlantic experience, this volume presents an alternative approach by examining the strong asymmetric relationships of dependency documented in the Ottoman Empire. A closer look at the Ottoman social order discloses manifold and ambiguous conditions involving enslavement practices, rather than a single universal pattern. The authors examine various forms of enslavement and dependency with a particular focus on agency, i. e. the room for maneuver, which the enslaved could secure for themselves, or else the available options for action in situations of extreme individual or group dependencies.
