Until I Become Home
Until I Become Home je skupnostna časopisna publikacija, ki se osredotoča na Balkansko begunsko pot in ljudi, ki jo poskušajo prečkati. Publikacija se z različnimi pisnimi in vizualnimi razmisleki osredotoča na pot, ki jo ljudje, ki bežijo pred vojno, konflikti, revščino ali preganjanjem opravijo, preden dosežejo svoje zatočišče v Evropski uniji. Življenja ljudi na Balkanski begunski poti, so pogosto potisnjena na obrobje in pogosto skrita v improviziranih taboriščih v gozdovih in zapuščenih stavbah. Vendar gozdovi vzdolž begunske poti ne skrivajo le beguncev temveč zakrivajo tudi institucionalizirano nasilje držav članic Evropske unije, ki uporabljajo brutalna sredstva in taktike, da bi ustavile migracije, hkrati pa vse bolj kriminalizirajo solidarnost lokalnega prebivalstva. Gosti gozdovi in globoke reke skrivajo tudi smrt mnogih, ki so se na poti izgubili, omagali, umrli od lakote in tistih, ki so na poti izgubili moč. Until I Become Home skozi izjave, poezijo, eseje, ustno zgodovino in vizualni arhiv poskuša odstirati pogled na zgodbe ljudi na poti, ki pogosto ostajajo izgubljena ali skrita.
Societal Transformations and Resilience in Times of Crisis
The COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the world and left turmoil in every facet of society in its wake. As in-person activities came to an end for public safety, businesses closed, classrooms scrambled to transition online, and society was forever changed. As the pandemic comes to a close, it is essential that researchers take this opportunity to study the changes that have occurred so that society may revive what has been lost and promote resilience should another crisis arise. Societal Transformations and Resilience in Times of Crisis focuses on the revival of societal institutions after events such as natural disasters, pandemics, political turmoil, and global crises, and looks toward b...
Bilinguality and Literacy
The new edition of Bilinguality and Literacy argues that bilingual children's literacy learning in English is necessarily an intercultural process. Children's voices are strong in this revised, updated and expanded edition and looks closely at bilingual children's writing development in view of the Ofsted statement that 'fluent bilingual pupils struggle with writing (2003).' Bilinguality and Literacy will be of interest to undergraduate students of applied linguistics, teacher training courses, and academics researching multilingualism and literacy.

Broken Paths
Winner of the Muslim Writers Awards 'Unpublished Novel' 2009. The award-winning Broken Paths is a powerful, tender and elegiac story that charts the dysfunctional relationship between a Bengali single mother and her son, living in England. It peels away layers of family history in both countries to reveal the painful secrets that each keeps from the other, the estrangement this causes over time, and the clash of cultural, religious and moral values. Samir, raised in London and sick of his mother's traditional lifestyle and suffocating love, moves out of home to find his own way beyond his dead end job and druggy friends. Amina is left lonely and desperate: her life's work in her adopted country has been to turn her son into a successful Muslim family man. A Bengali neighbour persuades Amina that an arranged marriage will get her son back, but this path leads to a fateful confrontation between mother and son. The tragic fallout tests the true strength of filial love.
Hollywood and China in the Post-postclassical Era
This book examines the contemporary relationship between Hollywood and China as case studies that help to define a new era in Hollywood film industry, style, and economics, which is termed the ‘post‐postclassical’ period. Centred around a case study of Legendary Entertainment, the analysis shows how the studio adopted and adapted its global strategies in order to gain access to and favour within the Chinese film market, and how issues of censorship and financial performance affected the choices they made. Demonstrating Legendary’s identity as a ‘post‐postclassical’ studio and examining how this plays into its China‐strategy, this book explores how this particular case and the necessary analysis of wider political economic relations offer a periodisation of the contemporary Hollywood‐China relationship. This book will interest students and scholars of media and film studies, as well as academics whose research interests include global cinema, Hollywood, Chinese cinema, transnational cinema, and film industry studies.
