Right-Wing Women - Andrea Dworkin - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

‘Feminism is hated because women are hated’Why do some women support right-wing movements, even though they curtail their freedoms? Andrea Dworkin’s timeless, visionary analysis goes to the heart of this contradiction, exploring the Right’s positions on abortion, sexuality, racism and antifeminism, and showing how it attempts both to exploit and to quiet women’s deepest fears of male violence. The right-wing woman, Dworkin contends, acquiesces to male authority for protection and some semblance of power: because ‘survival depends on it’. ‘Groundbreaking’ Bella Abzug‘Her razor-sharp analysis of why so many women are attracted to a politics that despises their rights is more relevant today than ever’ Guardian

What Is Populism? - Jan Werner Muller - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

''This lucid guide is essential reading'' Guardian From Donald Trump to Recep Erdogan, populists are on the rise across the globe. But what exactly is populism? Should everyone who criticizes Wall Street or Washington be called a populist? What precisely is the difference between right-wing and left-wing populism? Does populism bring government closer to the people or is it a threat to democracy? Who are "the people" anyway and who can speak in their name? These questions have never been more pressing.In this provocative book, Jan-Werner Müller argues that at populism''s core is a rejection of pluralism. Populists will always claim that they and they alone represent the people and their true interests. Contrary to conventional wisdom, populists can govern on the basis of their claim to exclusive moral representation of the people: if populists have enough power, they will end up creating an authoritarian state that excludes all those not considered part of the proper "people". Proposing a number of concrete strategies for how liberal democrats should best deal with populists, Müller shows how to counter their claims to speak exclusively for "the silent majority".*Updated with a new afterword*

Selected Poems - Michael Rosen - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Michael Rosen''s Selected Poems is a wonderfully moving sequence of prose poems extracted from his acclaimed autobiographical triptych, Carrying the Elephant , This is Not My Nose and In the Colonie . In a series of artful, deceptively simple poems, Rosen covers a vast terrain, collating vivid and fragmentary memories from his left-wing Jewish upbringing, his teenage holiday at a socialist summer camp in France, his London childhood and the death of his eighteen-year-old son from meningitis. He takes in, along the way, marriage, divorce, births and the undiagnosed illness (an underactive thyroid) from which Rosen suffered for ten years.

The Dark Knight and the Puppet Master - Chris Clarke - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

''A splendid critique'' James O''Brien, Times Literary Supplement ''Richly nuanced, the most stimulating book I have read on Labour in ages'' Martin Kettle, Guardian ''A brilliant book ... a reading of left-wing politics that suggests a road ahead'' Independent A ''dark knight'' conflict between good and evil; control by elite puppet masters; nostalgia for a golden age: these are the core myths of populism. And these narratives, argues Chris Clarke, have seduced the Left in Britain, causing bitter division and electoral disaster. Only by breaking this narrative spell and moving towards pluralism can Labour hope to fix itself - and to one day hold power again.Previously published by Rowman & Littlefield and Policy Network under the title Warring Fictions

Poetics of Relation - Edouard Glissant - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

‘One of the most important writers of the French Caribbean’ GuardianÉdouard Glissant’s most celebrated, scintillating philosophical work – which sets out a new poetic vision for the world‘We cry our cry of poetry. Our boats are open, and we sail them for everyone’In Poetics of Relation, Édouard Glissant turns the Caribbean of his birth into an energetic, multi-layered vision of a world in transformation. We come to see that relation in all its senses – telling, listening, connecting, and the parallel consciousness of self and surroundings – is the key to revolutionising mentalities and societies. We are not rooted, but ever-changing; we have a right to difference, wherever we are. Blending dreamlike prose with philosophical brilliance, this unique exploration of language, colonialism, slavery and freedom narrates an Antillean identity, but also that of the whole world, where ‘the poetics of Relation senses, assumes, opens, gathers, scatters, continues, and transforms.’Translated by Betsy Wing

In this powerful collection of interviews, Noam Chomsky exposes the problems of our world today, as we stand in this period of monumental change, preparing for a more hopeful tomorrow. ''For the left, elections are a brief interlude in a life of real politics, a moment to ask whether it''s worth taking time off to vote . . . Then back to work. The work will be to move forward to construct the better world that is within reach.''He sheds light into the phenomenon of right-wing populism, and exposes the catastrophic nature and impact of authoritarian policies on people, the environment and the planet as a whole. He captures the dynamics of the brutal class warfare launched by the masters of capital to maintain and even enhance the features of a dog-eat-dog society. And he celebrates the recent unprecedented mobilizations of millions of people internationally against neoliberal capitalism, racism and police violence.We stand at a precipice and we must fight to pull the world back from it.

The Spanish Civil War - Hugh Thomas - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Since its first publication, Hugh Thomas''s The Spanish Civil War has become established as the definitive one-volume history of a conflict that continues to provoke intense controversy today. What was it that roused left-wing sympathizers from all over the world to fight against Franco between 1936 and 1939? Why did the British and US governments refuse to intervene? And why did the Republican cause collapse so violently? Now revised and updated, Hugh Thomas''s classic account presents the most objective and unbiased analysis of a passionate struggle where fascism and democracy, communism and Catholicism were at stake - and which was as much an international war as a Spanish one.

Giggs - Joe Lovejoy - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Ryan Giggs first played for Manchester United in the season before the Premiership began; back when Bryan Robson was still captain. He took possession of United''s left wing and never loosened his grip. Over a fourteen year career so far, he''s seen them all come and go: Cantona, Schmeichel, Beckham and the rest. Sir Alex Ferguson said of Giggs ''I knew we had an outstanding talent when we gave him his debut.'' That was back in 1991, but it remains as true in 2005 as it ever was. Giggs has been a pivotal figure in United''s dominance of the Premiership. There have been rivals but no other team can match the their sustained record of success over recent years. And Giggs is the only player to have played in all eight of those title winning campaigns. Off the pitch, Ryan Giggs has always closely guarded his private life. But here he opens up for the first time, sharing details of the sometimes turbulent childhood that shaped him and the relationships that have mattered to him to reveal the man behind the famous number 11 red shirt. One thing seems clear: the Old Trafford crowd will be singing ''Giggs will tear you apart again!'' for a few years yet ...

What impact does that have on how we conduct business, our culture, our stress levels and ultimately our ability to succeed?
