Dear Readers,

One of the most challenging questions we all face is how to balance thinking and action. That’s why I’m so proud to announce the books in this catalogue, in which extraordinary writers and scholars lead the way in tying together theory and practice. Columbia’s Bernard E. Harcourt offers an inspiring and profound model for reconciling the two, Critique and Praxis (p. 1), an essential book for readers looking to revisit left-wing thought in light of today’s social movements. Sustainable Food Production (p. 5) and Rethinking Readiness (p. 6), written by leading figures from Columbia University’s Earth Institute, display a deep commitment to making expert knowledge available for the public good. Explaining the key issues in agriculture and emergency management, both highlight the importance of interdisciplinary research in tackling climate change and other twenty-first-century challenges.

Faced with a shocking rise in right-wing domestic terrorism, Arie Perliger’s American Zealots (p. 18) helps us understand where this violence comes from and how to react to it. And as conflict continues to roil the Middle East, Gilles Kepel’s Away from Chaos (p. 19) offers insight into how the world can respond.

This season we welcome three new distributed presses—the Association for Asian Studies (p. 90), Fernwood Publishing (pp. 80-85), and the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy (pp. 86-89). Complementing our strengths in Asian studies, critical political engagement, and sustainability in public policy, these remarkable publishers are at the forefront of integrating theory and practice to shape global conversations.

To publish these groundbreaking books, we rely on our readers, partners, and the university community. We are grateful for your support of our books and our mission—and we hope that you are inspired by them to act. Jennifer Crewe Associate Provost and Director

Critique and Praxis BERNARD E. HARCOURT

HOW CAN WE R ET H I N K CR I T I Q U E I N O R D E R TO RE DIR EC T IT TOWAR D C H A N G I N G T H E WO R L D?

Critical philosophy has always questioned the division between theory and practice. At its best, it aims to turn contemplation into emancipation, seeking to transform society in pursuit of the flourishing of humanity. Yet today’s critical theorists often seem to engage only in critique.

Bernard E. Harcourt calls for us to move beyond the complacency of decades of philosophical detours and to harness critical thought to the need for action. In a time of increasing awareness of economic and social inequality, of the privileges of some and the deprivations of the many, Harcourt shows how critical theory can guide us toward a more self-reflexive pursuit of justice. Charting a vision for political action and social transformation, Harcourt argues that instead of answering the question, “What is to be done?” we must now turn it back onto ourselves and ask, “What more am I to do?”

Critique and Praxis advocates for a new path forward that challenges each and every one of us to ask what more we can do to realize a society based on equality and justice. Joining his decades of activism, socialjustice litigation, and political engagement with his career of critical theory and philosophical work, Harcourt has written a magnum opus. BERNARD E. HARCOURT

“Has critical philosophy completed its mission, or has it renounced the task to link theory and praxis in order to change the world? Harcourt’s response is unequivocal: the critical theory that emerged from the Frankfurt School has lost its bearing and separated theory from praxis. In this book, Harcourt transforms critical philosophy into a manifesto of ethical engagement.” —Antonio Negri, coauthor of Empire

Duchamp Is My Lawyer

The Polemics, Pragmatics, and Poetics of UbuWeb KENNETH GOLDSMITH T H E STO RY A N D THEO RY B EHI N D A N O N LI N E AVA N T- GA RDE A RC HI VE

In 1996, during the relatively early days of the web, Kenneth Goldsmith created UbuWeb to post hard-to-find works of concrete poetry. What started out as a site to share works from a relatively obscure literary movement grew into an essential archive of twentieth- and twenty-first-century avant-garde and experimental literature, film, and music. Visitors around the world now have access to both obscure and canonical works, from artists such as Kara Walker, Yoko Ono, Pauline Oliveros, Samuel Beckett, Marcel Duchamp, Cecil Taylor, Glenn Ligon, William Burroughs, and Jean-Luc Godard.

“UbuWeb is one of the great avant-

In Duchamp Is My Lawyer, Goldsmith tells the history of UbuWeb, explaining the motivations behind its creation and how artistic works are archived, consumed, and distributed online. Based on his own experiences and interviews with a variety of experts, Goldsmith describes how the site navigates issues of copyright and the ways that UbuWeb challenges familiar configurations and histories of the avant-garde. The book also portrays the growth of other “shadow libraries” and includes a section on the artists whose works reflect the aims, aesthetics, and ethos of UbuWeb. Goldsmith concludes by contrasting UbuWeb’s commitment to the free-culture movement and giving access to a wide range of artistic works with today’s gatekeepers of algorithmic culture, such as Netflix, Amazon, and Spotify.

garde projects of our times. In Duchamp Is My Lawyer, Goldsmith takes us through the aesthetic, legal, economic, and social aspects of the whole project. Through it, we see how the avant-garde had to shift gears to move from the era of analog media to that of digital or database media. It is an essential document on the theory and practice of experimental media art.” —McKenzie Wark, author of A Hacker Manifesto

Conversations

AI WEIWEI

AI WEIWEI S P EAKS O U T O N A RT, PO L I T I C S , A N D L I FE

“I was a person coming from a communist society, so everything in New York was incredibly stimulating and had an enormous impact on me. I spent twelve years in the United States, so I learned all my bad habits from here. . . . When I was in detention, and after fifty interrogations, a very high-level secret police officer sitting in front of me said, ‘Ai Weiwei, you have been watching too many Hollywood movies.’ He couldn’t believe the words that were coming out of my mouth. He thought that maybe I was brainwashed. . . . I talked about freedom of speech, individual rights, liberty, and all those things. For the police, they thought this was ridiculous for a guy like me to be talking about such things.”

This book presents Ai Weiwei in conversation with theorists, critics, journalists, and curators about key moments in his life and career. Characteristically irreverent and humble, Ai discusses his relationship with China, the meaning of citizenship, moving his studio to Lesbos to be on the front lines of the migrant crisis, how to make art, and technology as a tool for freedom or oppression.

“Your voice needs to be heard, and you have to find your language and your expression. If you don’t have that expression, it just doesn’t work. You must create your appearance just like this stupid Chinese artist did. There is no other way. The only way to bear some responsibility is to find yourself.”

Ai opens up about his relationship to his father as a poet and dissident forced into hard labor in a small village after the Cultural Revolution. He conjures up scenes from his long relationship with New York: dropping out of Parsons because he couldn’t afford tuition, making portraits in Washington Square Park as an undocumented immigrant in the 1980s, taking photos for the New York Times at demonstrations in Tompkins Square Park, and returning to set up the Good Fences Make Good Neighbors project. These candid, spontaneous conversations reveal why Ai Weiwei has become such a major force in contemporary art and political life. AI WEIWEI

is one of the world’s most acclaimed artists and activists.

The Story of Evolution in 25 Discoveries

The Evidence and the People Who Found It DONALD R. PROTHERO TA L E S O F THE SC I EN TI STS WHO DEFI N ED THE STUDY O F E VO LUTI O N

The theory of evolution unites the past, present, and future of living things. It puts humanity’s place in the universe into necessary perspective. Despite a history of controversy, the evidence for evolution continues to accumulate as a result of many separate strands of incredible scientific sleuthing.

In The Story of Evolution in 25 Discoveries, Donald R. Prothero explores the most fascinating breakthroughs in piecing together the evidence for evolution. In twenty-five vignettes, he recounts the dramatic stories of the people who made crucial discoveries, placing each moment in the context of what it represented for the progress of science. He tackles topics like what it means to see evolution in action and the distance between species in space and time, following figures from Darwin to lesserknown researchers as they unlock the mysteries of the fossil record, the earth, and the universe. The book also features the stories of animal species strange and familiar, including humans—and our ties to some of our close relatives and more distant cousins. Prothero’s wide-ranging tales showcase awe-inspiring and bizarre aspects of nature and the powerful insights they give us into the way that life works. Brisk and entertaining while firmly grounded in fundamental science, The Story of Evolution in 25 Discoveries is a captivating read for anyone curious about the evidence for evolution and what it means for humanity.

“This is an informative and engaging work about the discovery process, mainly centered around evolution. Readers will be well informed about why biologists think evolution is not only real but also important for discovering who we are. Prothero provides a useful service in clearing up many misconceptions about evolution.” —Norman Johnson, author of Darwinian Detectives: Revealing the Natural History of Genes and Genomes

Industrial agriculture is responsible for widespread environmental degradation and undermines the pursuit of human well-being. With a projected global population of 10 billion by 2050, it is urgent for humanity to achieve a more sustainable approach to farming and food systems.

This concise book offers an overview of the key issues in sustainable food production for all readers interested in the ecology and environmental impact of agriculture. It details the ecological foundations of farming and food systems, showing how knowledge from the natural and social sciences can be used to create sustainable alternatives to the industrial production methods used today. Beginning with a discussion of the role of agriculture in human development, the primer explains the principles of environmental sustainability and explore how these principles can be put into practice in agrifood systems. They emphasize the importance of human well-being and insist on the centrality of social and environmental equity and justice. Sustainable Food Production is a compelling guide to how we can improve our ability to feed one another today and preserve the ability of our planet to do so tomorrow. It provides a comprehensive yet accessible framework for achieving agricultural sustainability in the Anthropocene. SHAHID NAEEM

Rethinking Readiness

A Brief Guide to Twenty-First-Century Megadisasters JEFF SCHLEGELMILCH Foreword by Irwin Redlener E X PE RT I N SI GHT I N TO HOW TO MA N AGE THE MOST S E R I O US DI SASTERS

As human society continues to develop, we have increased the risk of large-scale disasters. From health care to infrastructure to national security, systems designed to keep us safe have also heightened the potential for catastrophe. How can we prepare for and prevent the disasters on the horizon?

“Schlegelmilch provides a new perspective on the major threats and vulnerabilities facing modern society. Readers will find the discussion of megadisasters intriguing and the argument for better preparation compelling. Rethinking Readiness argues for a broader view of disasters and for a sustained effort to reduce the threats and societal vulnerability.” —William L. Waugh Jr., professor emeritus, Georgia State University

Rethinking Readiness offers an expert introduction to human-made threats and vulnerabilities, with a focus on opportunities to reimagine how we approach disaster preparedness. Jeff Schlegelmilch identifies and explores the most critical threats facing the world today, detailing the dangers of pandemics, climate change, infrastructure collapse, cyberattacks, and nuclear conflict. Drawing on the latest research from leading experts, he provides an accessible overview of the causes and potential effects of these looming megadisasters. The book highlights the potential for building resilient, adaptable, and sustainable systems so that we can be better prepared to respond to and recover from future crises. Thoroughly grounded in scientific and policy expertise, Rethinking Readiness is an essential guide to this century’s biggest challenges in disaster management. JEFF SCHLEGELMILCH

The Alchemy of Disease

How Chemicals and Toxins Cause Cancer and Other Illnesses

JOHN WHYSNER A TOXICOLOGIST EXPL A I N S H OW A N D W H Y C H E M I CA LS AND TOXINS IN OUR E N V I R O N M E N T M A K E U S S I CK

Since the dawn of the industrial age, we have unleashed a bewildering number of potentially harmful chemicals. But out of the vast array of threats, how do we identify which actually endanger us? What does it take to prove that a certain chemical causes cancer? How do we translate academic knowledge of the toxic effects of particular substances into understanding real-world health consequences? The science that answers these questions is toxicology.

John Whysner offers an accessible and compelling history of toxicology and its key findings. He details the experiments and discoveries that revealed the causal connections between chemical exposures and diseases. Balancing clear accounts of groundbreaking science with human drama and public-policy relevance, Whysner describes key moments in the development of toxicology and their thorny social and political implications. The book features discussions of issues including DDT, cigarettes and other carcinogens, lead poisoning, fossil fuels, chemical warfare, pharmaceuticals—including opioids—and the efficacy of animal testing. Offering valuable insight into the science and politics of crucial public-health concerns, The Alchemy of Disease shows that toxicology’s task—pinpointing the chemical cause of an illness—is as compelling as any detective story. JOHN WHYSNER

“Whysner’s book is a valuable addition to the history of toxicology and allied fields, as it benefits from the institutional knowledge of a professional working in the field of toxicology for five decades. The author brings to light technical aspects of the science that some may not be aware of, especially concepts of risk assessment, dose response, and links between cancer rates and the reality of the state of the science.” —Dale A.

On the Prowl

In Search of Big Cat Origins MARK HALLETT AND JOHN M. HARRIS Illustrated by Mark Hallett A V I V I D P O RTRA I T O F B I G CAT EVO LUTI O N

Big cats such as lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars fascinate us like few other creatures. They are enduring symbols of natural majesty and power. Yet despite the magnetic appeal of the big cats, their origins and evolutionary history remain poorly understood—and human activity threatens to put an end to the big cats’ glory.

“On the Prowl is a superb book, both enjoyable and instructive. I’m greatly impressed with the huge amount of data that Hallett and Harris have collected and presented in a most readable manner. The complex evolutionary history and relationships of the cats will keep researchers arguing for years.” —George Schaller, senior conservationist, Wildlife Conservation Society, and author of The Serengeti Lion: A Study of Predator-Prey Relations

On the Prowl is a fully illustrated and approachable guide to the evolution of the big cats and what it portends for their conservation today. Mark Hallett and John M. Harris trace the origins of these iconic carnivores, venturing down the evolutionary pathways that produced the diversity of big cat species that have walked the earth. They place the evolution and paleobiology of these species in the context of ancient ecosystems and climates, explaining what made big cats such efficient predators and analyzing their competition with other animals. Hallett and Harris pay close attention to human impact, from the evidence of cave paintings and analysis of ancient extinctions up to present-day crises. Their engaging and carefully documented account is brought to life through detailed illustrations by the paleoartist Hallett based on the most recent research by leading paleontologists. Offering a fresh look at the rise of these majestic animals, On the Prowl also makes a powerful case for renewed efforts to protect big cats and their habitats before it is too late. MARK HALLETT

The Bearded Lady Project Challenging the Face of Science

LEXI JAMIESON MARSH AND ELLEN CURRANO, EDITORS PORT R AITS AND ESSAYS R ET H I N K I N G W H AT A FI E L D S CI E NT IST LOOKS L I K E

During a discussion of how women are treated in traditionally male-dominated fields, the paleobotanist Ellen Currano lamented to the filmmaker Lexi Jamieson Marsh that, as the only young and female faculty member in her department, she was not taken seriously by her colleagues. If only she had the right amount of facial hair, she joked, maybe they would recognize her expertise? The next morning, she saw a message from Lexi saying: Let’s do this. Let’s get beards. That simple remark was the beginning of the Bearded Lady Project.

Challenging persistent gender biases in the sciences, the project puts the spotlight on underrepresented geoscientists in the field and in the lab. This book pairs portraits of these scientists after donning fake beards with personal essays in which they tell their stories. The beautiful photography—shot with a vintage large-format camera and often in the field, in deserts, mountains, badlands, and mudflats— takes us back to the early days of paleontological expeditions more than a century ago. The pictures dismantle the stereotype of the burly, bearded white man that has dominated ideas of field scientists for far too long. Using a healthy dose of humor, The Bearded Lady Project celebrates the achievements of the women who study the history of life on Earth. LEXI JAMIESON MARSH

“The stories within are compelling, and I wish I had been able to read them before I embarked on my own career as a scientist. The voices of the contributors and editors emanate clearly from the pages. The writing is an impressive combination of approachable yet sophisticated, powerful yet playful, meticulously researched and fact-based yet balanced with personal, often painful narratives.” —Lindsay Zanno, head of paleontology, North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences

Meals Matter

A Radical Economics Through Gastronomy MICHAEL SYMONS A PPR OAC HI N G ECO N O MI C S THRO UGH SUSTEN A N C E R AT H ER THA N P RO FI T

Until the early nineteenth century, political philosophy and economics were dining companions. Both took up fundamental questions of how we should feed one another. But with the rise of corporate capitalism, modern economics lost sight of its primary task and turned away from the complexities of real people’s sustenance in favor of the singleminded pursuit of money.

“Symons succeeds brilliantly in a radical project: convincing readers to rethink a singular ‘economics’ as multiple ‘economies’: bodily, household, market, political, and natural. His book draws on intellectual history, economic and social theories, and gastronomy, and it is richly illustrated with stories about meals.” —Janet Flammang, author of The Taste for Civilization: Food, Politics, and Civil Society

In Meals Matter, Michael Symons returns economics to its roots in the distribution of food and the labor required. Setting the table with vivid descriptions of conviviality, he offers a gastronomic rebuttal to the narrow worldview of mainstream economics. Engaging with a wide variety of thinkers—including Epicurus, Enlightenment philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes and John Locke, the gastronomer Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, and economic theorists from François Quesnay and Adam Smith through the neoliberals—Symons traces how we went astray and how we can find our way back to a more caring, sustainable way of life. He finds hope for shared “table pleasure” in institutions like community gardens, street markets, and banquets and in eating fresh, local, and “slow” food.

An innovative, historically based argument at the intersection of food history and social thought, Meals Matter challenges us to reject the economics of greed in favor of a community-based economics of sharing and gastronomic enjoyment. MICHAEL SYMONS

The Chile Pepper in China A Cultural Biography BRIAN R. DOTT HOW T H E FOR EIGN C H I L E PE PPE R I G N I T E D CHI N ES E C ULT UR E

Chinese cuisine without chile peppers seems unimaginable. Entranced by the fiery taste, diners worldwide have fallen for Chinese cooking. In China, chiles are everywhere, from dried peppers hanging from eaves to Mao’s boast that revolution would be impossible without chiles, from the eighteenth-century novel Dream of the Red Chamber to contemporary music videos. Indeed, they are so common that many Chinese assume they are native. Yet there were no chiles anywhere in China before the 1570s, when they were introduced from the Americas.

Brian R. Dott explores how the nonnative chile went from obscurity to ubiquity in China, influencing not just cuisine but also medicine, language, and cultural identity. He details how its versatility became essential to a variety of regional cuisines and swayed both elite and popular medical and healing practices. Dott tracks the cultural meaning of the chile across a wide swath of literary texts and artworks, revealing how the spread of chiles fundamentally altered the meaning of the term spicy. He emphasizes the intersection between food and gender, tracing the chile as a symbol for both male virility and female passion. Integrating food studies, the history of medicine, and Chinese cultural history, The Chile Pepper in China sheds new light on the piquant cultural impact of a potent plant and raises broader questions regarding notions of authenticity in cuisine. BRIAN R. DOTT

“A learned as well as lively book with many surprises. How chile peppers came to China from the New World just starts a story involving taste, regionalism, adaptation, and folklore. Chiles were key to Chinese cuisine’s subtlety and variety, and not just in Sichuan and Hunan either.” —Paul Freedman, Yale University

Table for One Stories

YUN KO-EUN Translated by Lizzie Buehler Q U I R KY A N D UN CA N N Y SHO RT STO RI ES FRO M A N EW S O U T H KO REA N VO I C E

An office worker who has no one to eat lunch with enrolls in a course that builds confidence about eating alone. A man with a pathological fear of bedbugs offers up his body to save his building from infestation. A time capsule in Seoul is dug up hundreds of years before it was intended to be unearthed. A vending machine repairman finds himself trapped in a shrinking motel during a never-ending snowstorm. “Reflecting the quirky and dysfunctional interiority of its characters, Table for One provides a unique insight into modern Koreans. Yun has a distinct literary personality that puts her in the company of major contemporary Korean women writers such as Pyun Hye-young, Jo Kyung-ran, Han Kang, and Han Yujoo.” —Heinz Insu Fenkl, author of Memories of My Ghost Brother

In these and other indelible short stories, the contemporary South Korean author Yun Ko-eun conjures up slightly off-kilter worlds tucked away in the corners of everyday life. Her fiction is bursting with images that toe the line between realism and the fantastic. Throughout Table for One, comedy and an element of the surreal are interwoven with the hopelessness and loneliness that pervades the protagonists’ decidedly mundane lives. Yun’s stories focus on solitary city dwellers, and her eccentric, often dreamlike humor highlights their sense of isolation. Mixing quirky and melancholy commentary on densely packed urban life, she calls attention to the toll of rapid industrialization and the displacement of traditional culture. Acquainting the English-speaking audience with one of South Korea’s breakout young writers, Table for One presents a parade of misfortunes that speak to all readers in their unconventional universality.

Sachiko

A Novel

ENDŌ SHŪSAKU Translated by Van C. Gessel THE STORY OF A WO M A N TO R N BET W E E N G O D A N D COUNT RY, F R OM T H E AU T H O R O F S I L E NC E

In novels such as Silence, Endō Shūsaku examines the persecution of Japanese Christians in different historical eras. Sachiko, set in Nagasaki in the painful years between 1930 and 1945, is the story of two young people trying to find love during yet another period in which Japanese Christians were accused of disloyalty to their country.

In the 1930s, two young Japanese Christians, Sachiko and Shūhei, are free to play with American children in their neighborhood. But life becomes increasingly difficult for them and other Christians after Japan launches wars of aggression. Meanwhile, a Polish Franciscan priest and former missionary in Nagasaki, Father Maximillian Kolbe, is arrested after returning to his homeland. Endō alternates scenes between Nagasaki—where the growing love between Sachiko and Shūhei is imperiled by mounting persecution—and Auschwitz, where the priest has been sent. Shūhei’s dilemma deepens when he faces conscription into the Japanese military, conflicting with the Christian belief that killing is a sin. With the A-bomb attack on Nagasaki looming in the distance, Endō depicts ordinary people trying to live lives of faith in a wartime situation that renders daily life increasingly unbearable. Endō’s compassion for his characters, reflecting their struggles to find and share love for others, makes Sachiko one of his most moving novels. ENDŌ SHŪSAKU

“An important work of historical fiction that raises profound questions about the moral legitimation and human cost of war, transnational relationships, and the atomic bombing of Nagasaki.” —Kevin M. Doak, Georgetown University

Other Moons

Vietnamese Short Stories of the American War and Its Aftermath TRANSLATED AND EDITED BY QUAN MANH HA AND JOSEPH BABCOCK Foreword by Bao Ninh S H O RT FI C TI O N SHOWI N G THE EFFEC TS O F THE WA R O N E VERYDAY VI ETN A MESE

“Other Moons makes widely read war fiction from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam available in English translation for the first time. The stories offer a range of perspectives on the impact of war in Vietnam, bridging the experiences of north and south, the homefront and the battlefield, women and men, and even the living and the dead. This book will be welcomed by readers interested in war commemoration in Vietnam.” —Kathlene Baldanza, Penn State University

In this anthology, Vietnamese writers describe their experience of what they call the American War and its lasting legacy through the lens of their own vital artistic visions. A North Vietnamese soldier forms a bond with an abandoned puppy. Cousins find their lives upended by the revelation that their fathers fought on opposite sides of the war. Two lonely veterans meet years after the war has ended through a newspaper dating service. A psychic assists the search for the body of a long-vanished soldier. The father of a girl suffering from dioxin poisoning struggles with corrupt local officials.

The twenty short stories collected in Other Moons range from the intensely personal to narratives that deal with larger questions of remembrance, trauma, and healing. By a diverse set of authors, including many veterans, they span styles from social realism to the fantastic. Yet whether describing the effects of Agent Orange exposure or telling ghost stories, all speak to the unresolved legacy of a conflict that still haunts Vietnam. Among the most widely anthologized and popular pieces of short fiction about the war in Vietnam, these works appear here for the first time in English. Other Moons offers Anglophone audiences an unparalleled opportunity to experience how Vietnamese people think and write about the conflict that consumed their country from 1954 to 1975—a perspective still largely missing from American narratives.

The Nose and Other Stories NIKOLAI GOGOL

Translated by Susanne Fusso A N EW T R ANS L AT ION O F CL ASS I C S H O RT STO R I E S BY RU SS IA’ S GR EAT EST CO M I C W R I T E R

Nikolai Gogol’s novel Dead Souls and play The Government Inspector revolutionized Russian literature and continue to entertain generations of readers around the world. Yet Gogol’s peculiar genius comes through most powerfully in his short stories. By turns—or at once—funny, terrifying, and profound, the tales collected in The Nose and Other Stories are among the greatest achievements of world literature.

These stories showcase Gogol’s vivid, haunting imagination: an encounter with evil in a darkened church, a downtrodden clerk who dreams only of a new overcoat, a nose that falls off a face and reappears around town on its own, outranking its former owner. Written between 1831 and 1842, they span the colorful setting of rural Ukraine to the unforgiving urban landscape of St. Petersburg to the ancient labyrinth of Rome. Yet they share Gogol’s characteristic obsessions—city crowds, bureaucratic hierarchy and irrationality, the devil in disguise— and a constant undercurrent of the absurd. Susanne Fusso’s translations pay careful attention to the strangeness and wonder of Gogol’s style, preserving the inimitable humor and oddity of his language. The Nose and Other Stories reveals why Russian writers from Dostoevsky to Nabokov have returned to Gogol as the cornerstone of their unparalleled literary tradition. NIKOLAI GOGOL

“The first major English translation of Gogol’s stories in more than twenty years, The Nose and Other Stories captures his humor and complexity brilliantly. This volume will prove to be a great read for students and Russian-literature enthusiasts alike.” —Bruce Holl, Trinity University

The Life Written by Himself ARCHPRIEST AVVAKUM

Translated by Kenneth N. Brostrom A ST RI KI N G RECO RD O F RUSSI A’ S SEVEN TEEN THCE N T URY SC HI SM FRO M A LEA DER O F THE O LD BE L I EVERS

“[Brostrom’s] translation is exceptionally well done, recreating . . . the rhythms, stylistic alternations, and vernacular intonations of the original.” —Priscilla Hunt, Slavic Review

Moscow in the middle of the seventeenth century had a distinctly apocalyptic feel. An outbreak of the plague killed half the population. A solar eclipse and comet appeared in the sky, causing panic. And a religious reform movement intended to purify spiritual life and provide for the needy had become a violent political project that cleaved Russian society and the Orthodox Church in two. The autobiography of Archpriest Avvakum provides a vivid account of these cataclysmic events from a figure at their center.

Written in the 1660s and ’70s from a cell in an Arctic village where the archpriest had been imprisoned by the tsar, Avvakum’s autobiography is a record of his life, ecclesiastical career, painful exile, religious persecution, and imprisonment. It is also a salvo in a contest about whether to follow the old Russian Orthodox liturgy or import Greek rites and practices. These concerns touched every stratum of Russian society—and for Avvakum represented an urgent struggle between good and evil.

Avvakum’s autobiography has been a cornerstone of Russian literature since it first circulated among religious dissidents. Its language and style served as a model for writers such as Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Gorky. The Life Written by Himself is not only an important historical document but also an emotionally charged and surprisingly conversational self-portrait of a crucial figure in a tumultuous time. ARCHPRIEST AVVAKUM

(1620/2–1682) was born near Nizhny

Novgorod to a priest and a nun. He became a leader in the Old Believers movement. He wrote the earliest version of his biography between 1669 $19.95t / £16.99 paper 978-0-231-19809-7 $40.00 / £34.00 cloth 978-0-231-19808-0 $18.99t / £15.99 e-book 978-0-231-55249-3

Journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow ALEXANDER RADISHCHEV

Translated by Andrew Kahn and Irina Reyfman A CL ASS IC L IT ER ARY J O U R N E Y FR O M T H E O R I G I N A L RU SS IAN R AD ICAL

Alexander Radishchev’s Journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow is among the most important pieces of writing to come out of Russia in the age of Catherine the Great. An account of a fictional journey along a postal route, it blends literature, philosophy, and political economy to expose social and economic injustices and their causes at all levels of Russian society. Not long after the book’s publication in 1790, Radishchev was condemned to death for its radicalism and ultimately exiled to Siberia instead. Radishchev’s literary journey is guided by intense moral conviction. He sought to confront the reader with urgent ethical questions, laying bare the cruelty of serfdom and other institutionalized forms of exploitation. The Journey’s multiple strands include sentimental fictions, allegorical discourses, poetry, theatrical plots, historical essays, a treatise on raising children, and comments on corruption and political economy, all informed by Enlightenment arguments and an interest in placing Russia in its European context. Radishchev is perhaps the first in a long line of Russian writer-dissenters, such as Herzen and Solzhenitsyn, who created a singular literary idiom to express a subversive message. In Andrew Kahn and Irina Reyfman’s idiomatic and stylistically sensitive translation, one of imperial Russia’s most notorious clandestine books is now accessible to English-speaking readers. ALEXANDER RADISHCHEV

“Combining profound linguistic sophistication with enviable literary style, Andrew Kahn and Irina Reyfman, two of today’s most esteemed scholars of Russian literature, have produced the definitive translation of Radishchev’s classic revolutionary cri de coeur.” —Douglas Smith, author of Rasputin: Faith, Power, and the Twilight of the Romanovs

was born in 1749 to a minor noble family

American Zealots

Inside Right-Wing Domestic Terrorism ARIE PERLIGER E X PE RT A N A LYSI S O F THE N ATURE O F FA R- RI GHT V I O L EN C E

In an unsettling time in American history, the outbreak of right-wing violence is among the most disturbing developments. In recent years, attacks originating from the far right of American politics have targeted religious and ethnic minorities, with a series of antigovernment militants, religious extremists, and lone-wolf mass shooters inspired by right-wing ideologies. The need to understand the nature and danger of far-right violence is greater than ever.

“American Zealots is an immensely timely and important publication. Written by one of this country’s foremost authorities on far-right extremist violence, it provides a comprehensive analysis of this movement’s evolution and trajectory and its implications for American society and politics.” —Bruce Hoffman, author of Inside Terrorism

In American Zealots, Arie Perliger provides a wide-ranging and rigorously researched overview of right-wing domestic terrorism. He analyzes its historical roots, characteristics, tactics, rhetoric, and organization, assessing the current and future trajectory of the use of violence by the far right. Perliger draws on a comprehensive dataset of more than 5,000 attacks and their perpetrators between 1990 and 2018 in order to explore key trends in American right-wing terrorism. He describes the entire ideological spectrum of the American far right, including today’s white supremacists, antigovernment groups, and antiabortion fundamentalists, as well as the histories of the KKK, skinheads, and neo-Nazis. Based on these findings, Perliger suggests counterterrorism policies that can respond effectively to the far-right threat. A groundbreaking examination of violence spawned from right-wing ideologies, American Zealots is essential reading for everyone seeking to understand the transformation of domestic terrorism.

Away from Chaos

The Middle East and the Challenge to the West GILLES KEPEL Translated by Henry Randolph FRANC E’S FOR EM OST S C H O L A R O F I S L A M E X PLO R E S THE GLOBAL INT ER CO N N E C T E D N E SS O F M I D D L E E AST CONF L IC T

The Middle East is one of the world’s most volatile regions. In recent years, from the optimism and then crushing disappointment of the Arab uprisings through the rise and fall of the Islamic State, it has presented key international security challenges. With the resilient jihadi terror threat, large-scale migration caused by warfare and climate change, and fierce competition for control over oil, it promises to continue to be a powder keg. What ignited this instability?

Away from Chaos is a sweeping political history of four decades of Middle East conflict and its worldwide ramifications. Gilles Kepel, called “France’s most famous scholar of Islam” by the New York Times, offers a clear and persuasive narrative of the long-term causes of tension while seamlessly incorporating on-the-ground observations and personal experiences from the people who lived through them. From the Yom Kippur/Ramadan war of 1973 to the aftermath of the Arab Spring, Away from Chaos weaves together the various threads that run through Middle East politics and ties them to their implications on the global stage. With keen insight stemming from decades of experience in the region, Kepel puts these chaotic decades in perspective and illuminates their underlying dynamics. He also considers the prospects of emerging from this long-lasting turmoil to achieve a more stable future. © FRANCESCA M A N T O VA N I © É D I T I O N S GALLIMARD

“Who else but Gilles Kepel could have written this seductively provocative book? Kepel has drawn on his decades of deliberation and argument in this tour d’horizon of the development of Islamist movements in the Middle East since the 1960s.

Just Like Us

The American Struggle to Understand Foreigners THOMAS BORSTELMANN A LY R I CA L ACCO UN T O F HOW A MERI CA N S HAVE SEEN OT H E RS A N D THEMSELVES

Americans have long considered themselves a people set apart. Yet American exceptionalism is built on a set of tacit beliefs about other cultures. From the founding exclusion of indigenous peoples and enslaved Africans to the uneasy welcome of waves of immigrants, from republican disavowals of colonialism to Cold War proclamations of freedom, Americans’ ideas of their differences from others have shaped the modern world—and how Americans have viewed foreigners is deeply revealing of their assumptions about themselves.

Just Like Us is a pathbreaking exploration of what foreignness has meant across American history. Thomas Borstelmann traces American ambivalence about non-Americans, identifying a paradoxical perception of foreigners as suspiciously different yet fundamentally sharing American values beneath the layers of culture. Considering race and religion, notions of the American way of life, attitudes toward immigrants, competition with communism, Americans abroad, and the subversive power of American culture, he offers a surprisingly optimistic account that shows how the United States has grown steadily more inclusive. In a time of resurgent nativism and xenophobia, Just Like Us provides a reflective, urgent examination of how Americans have conceived of foreignness and their own exceptionalism throughout the nation’s history.

“This is one of those books that sticks with you. Borstelmann asks a big question—about U.S. attitudes toward foreigners—and has an important argument to make. What is more, Just Like Us sparkles with telling details and unexpected connections. It is, plainly put, masterful.” —Daniel Immerwahr, author of How to Hide an Empire:

Fifty Years of Making Magazines WALTER BERNARD AND MILTON GLASER Foreword by Gloria Steinem THE ART AND H ISTORY O F M AG A Z I N E D E S I G N AS S E E N THRO UGH T H E CAR E E R S O F T WO I CO N I C FI G U R E S

For more than fifty years, Walter Bernard and Milton Glaser have revolutionized the look of magazine journalism. In Mag Men, Bernard and Glaser recount their storied careers, offering insiders’ perspective on some of the most iconic design work of the twentieth century. The authors look back on and analyze some of their most important and compelling projects, from the creation of New York magazine to redesigns of such publications as Time, Fortune, Paris Match, and The Nation, explaining how their designs complemented a story and shaped the visual identity of a magazine.

Richly illustrated with the covers and interiors that defined their careers, Mag Men is bursting with vivid examples of Bernard and Glaser’s work, designed to encapsulate their distinctive approach to visual storytelling and capture the major events and trends of the past half century. Bernard and Glaser detail their relationships with a variety of writers, editors, and artists, including, Nora Ephron, Tom Wolfe, Gail Sheehy, David Levine, Seymour Chwast, Katherine Graham, Clay Felker, and Katrina vanden Heuvel. At a time when uncertainty continues to cloud the future of print journalism, Mag Men offers not only a personal history from two of its most innovative figures but also a reminder and celebration of the visual impact and sense of style that only magazines can offer.

The Uncertainty Mindset

Innovation Insights from the Frontiers of Food VAUGHN TAN W H AT THE HAUTE C UI SI N E TEST K I TC HEN CA N TEAC H U S A BO UT O RGA N I Z ATI O N A L I N N OVATI O N

“Chefs are responsible for some of today’s most novel innovations. Vaughn Tan goes behind the scenes to show how R&D is organized inside the world’s most famous kitchens, uncovering surprising lessons that have wide application. This is a provocative contribution to studies of culture and R&D.” —Woody Powell, Stanford University

Innovation is how businesses adapt to market conditions that change in unpredictable ways. In the first decade of the twenty-first century, high-end cuisine underwent a profound transformation. Once an industry that prioritized consistency and reliability, it turned into one where constant change was a competitive necessity. A top restaurant’s reputation and success have become so closely bound up with its ability to innovate that a new organizational form, the culinary research and development team, has emerged. The best of these R&D teams continually expand the frontiers of food—they invent a constant stream of new dishes, new cooking processes and methods, and even new ways of experiencing food. How do they achieve this nonstop novelty? And what can culinary research and development teach us about how organizations innovate?

Vaughn Tan opens up the black box of elite culinary R&D to provide essential insights. Drawing on years of unprecedented access to the best and most influential culinary R&D teams in the world, he reveals how they exemplify what he calls the uncertainty mindset. Such a mindset intentionally incorporates uncertainty into organization design rather than simply trying to reduce risk. It changes how organizations hire, set goals, and motivate team members and leads organizations to work in highly unconventional ways. A revelatory look at the R&D kitchen, The Uncertainty Mindset upends conventional wisdom about how to organize for innovation and offers practical insights for businesses trying to become innovative and adaptable.

No Finish Line

Lessons on Life and Career MEYER FELDBERG WHAT L EAD ER S CAN L E A R N FR O M T H E R I C H L I FE STORY OF M EY ER F E L D BE R G

Meyer Feldberg is a storyteller. The source of his stories is his rich and unique life, which took him from South Africa under apartheid to a C-Suite in present-day New York, from the hallowed halls of academia to the frenzy of global investment banking. As with all storytellers, there is a purpose embedded in each of his stories that is specific in its details but universal in its message. No Finish Line is Meyer Feldberg as his friends and colleagues know him. It is the professor dispensing sage advice. It is the mentor telling a tale about himself that is really about you. In his telling, Feldberg’s story—both his successes and his failures—is a lesson plan for how to lead a worthy personal and professional life.

This concise volume reminds the reader of the importance of courage and decency in our relationships. Feldberg shows how values like self-awareness, personal responsibility, and generosity play out in ways that in retrospect become pivotal. He relates his regrets as well as his triumphs, candidly sharing how our failures to live up to our own expectations can continue to haunt us. Written by a leading fixture of New York’s educational, cultural, and business elite, No Finish Line is an engaging portrait of what matters most in living a good and successful life. MEYER FELDBERG

The Power of And

Responsible Business Without Trade-Offs R. EDWARD FREEMAN, KIRSTEN E. MARTIN, AND BIDHAN L. PARMAR T R A N SFO RMI N G THE WAY WE THI N K A BO UT THE RO LE O F BUSI N ESS I N SO C I ETY

The idea that business is only about the money doesn’t hold true in the twenty-first century, when companies around the world are giving up traditional distinctions in order to succeed. Yet too often our expectations for businesses remain under the sway of an outdated worldview that emphasizes profits for shareholders above all else.

“In the twenty-first century, the old story that businesses only care for profits and shareholders and pursue these above else is incomplete. The Power of And shows the way forward, illustrating how businesses can embed powerful purpose in their business strategy, intertwining ethics and responsibility with value creation. Freeman, Martin, and Parmar weave a compelling narrative, acknowledging the complexities of organizations and people and their effect on societies. The book is a must-read for practitioners and students.”

The Power of And offers a new narrative about the nature of business, revealing the focus on responsibility and ethics that unites today’s most influential ideas and companies. R. Edward Freeman, Kirsten E. Martin, and Bidhan L. Parmar detail an emerging business model built on five key concepts: prioritizing purpose as well as profits; creating value for stakeholders as well as shareholders; seeing business as embedded in society as well as markets; recognizing people’s full humanity as well as their economic interests; and integrating business and ethics into a more holistic model. Drawing on examples across companies, industries, and countries, they disprove the conventional wisdom that there are unavoidable trade-offs between acting ethically and succeeding financially. The Power of And presents a conceptual revolution about what it means for business to be responsible, providing a new story for us to tell in order to help all kinds of companies thrive. R.

Narrative Change

How Changing the Story Can Transform Society, Business, and Ourselves HANS HANSEN WHY R EF R AM ING T HE N A R R AT I V E I S T H E K E Y TO CRE AT ING C H ANGE

Texas prosecutors are powerful: in cases where they seek capital punishment, the defendant is sentenced to death over 90 percent of the time. When the management professor Hans Hansen joined Texas’s newly formed death-penalty defense team to rethink their approach, they faced almost insurmountable odds. Yet while Hansen was working with the office, they won seventy of seventy-one cases by changing the narrative for death penalty defense. To date, they have succeeded in preventing well over one hundred executions—demonstrating the importance of changing the narrative to change our world. In this book, Hansen offers readers a powerful model for creating significant organizational, social, and institutional change. He unpacks the lessons of the fight to change capital punishment in Texas and juxtaposes those life-and-death decisions with efforts to achieve a cultural shift at Uber. Hansen reveals how narratives shape our everyday lives and how we can construct new narratives to enact positive change. This narrative-change model can be used to transform corporate cultures, improve public services, encourage innovation, craft a brand, or even develop your own leadership.

Narrative Change provides an unparalleled window into an innovative model of change while telling powerful stories of a fight against injustice. It reminds us that what matters most for any organization, community, or person is the story we tell about ourselves—and the most effective way to shake things up is by changing the story. HANS HANSEN

can be used for social change in a way that is both theoretically simple and eminently practical—an unusual combination in modern approaches to change. He does this by telling the story of how he inadvertently got involved with fighting the death penalty in Texas and the surprising success they had when they used these ideas. This is not only a mustread for anyone interested in social change; it is a great story that is nearly impossible to put down.” —Steven S.

China’s Fintech Explosion

Disruption, Innovation, and Survival SARA HSU AND JIANJUN LI E X PLORI N G THE I N N OVATI VE C HI N ESE FI N TEC H I N D U STRY

Financial technology—or fintech—is gaining in popularity globally as a way of making financial services more efficient and accessible. In rapidly developing China, fintech is taking off, catering to markets that state-owned banks and an undersized financial sector do not serve amid a backdrop of growing consumption and a large, tech-savvy millennial generation. It is becoming increasingly likely that some of China’s fintech firms will change the way the world does business.

“While most writing on fintech takes a vertical approach to the field, this book’s integrative approach will become more valuable as pointsolution start-ups start to build more multifaceted solutions long offered by incumbent financialservices firms. It is also accessible to anyone looking to gain a better understanding of the current state of affairs of fintech in China— certainly a good text for fintech courses in undergraduate and graduate programs.” —Drew David Pascarella, associate dean for MBA Programs and founder of the Fintech Intensive, Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management, Cornell University

In China’s Fintech Explosion, Sara Hsu and Jianjun Li explore the transformative potential of China’s financial-technology industry, describing the risks and rewards for participants as well as the impact on consumers. They cover fintech’s many subsectors, such as digital payment systems, peer-to-peer lending and crowdfunding, credit card issuance and internet banks, blockchain finance and virtual currencies, and online insurance. The book highlights the disruption of traditional banking as well as the risks of fintech and regulatory technology. Hsu and Li describe major companies including Alipay and Tencent, developer of WeChat Pay and a wealth-management business, and other leading fintech firms such as Creditease, Zhong An Insurance, and JD Finance. Offering expert analysis of market potential, risks, and competition, as well as case studies of firms and consumer behavior, China’s Fintech Explosion is a must-read for anyone interested in one of the world’s breakout sectors.

Startup Myths and Models

What You Won’t Learn in Business School RIZWAN VIRK I N S IGH TS INTO T H E PI T FA L L S O F E N T R E PR E N E U R S H IP A ND H OW TO AVOID T H E M

Budding entrepreneurs face a challenging road. The path isn’t made any easier by all the clichés they hear about how to make a startup succeed—from platitudes and conventional wisdom to downright contradictions. This witty and wise guide to the dilemmas of entrepreneurship debunks widespread misconceptions about how the world of startups works and offers hard-earned advice for every step of the journey. Instead of startup myths—legends spun from a fantasy version of Silicon Valley—Rizwan Virk provides startup models—frameworks that help make thoughtful decisions about starting, growing, managing, and selling a business. Rather than dispensing simplistic rules, he mentors readers in the development of a mental toolkit for approaching challenges based on how startup markets evolve in real life. In snappy prose with savvy pop-culture and realworld examples, Virk recasts entrepreneurship as a grand adventure. He shares the secrets of founding a startup, raising money, hiring and firing, when to enter a market and when to exit, and how to value a company. Virk combines lessons learned the hard way during his twenty-five years of founding, investing in, and advising startups with reflections from well-known venture capitalists and experts. His candid advice makes Startup Myths and Models an ideal companion for readers from those just embarking on the startup life to those looking for their next adventure. RIZWAN VIRK

The Joys of Compounding

The Passionate Pursuit of Lifelong Learning Revised and Updated GAUTAM BAID A G U I DE TO VA LUE I N VESTI N G A N D LI FE THAT SY N T HESI Z ES B USI N ESS A N D P HI LOSO P HY

Value investing is not just a system for success in the market. It is also an intellectual toolkit for achieving a deeper understanding of the world. In The Joys of Compounding, the value investor Gautam Baid builds a holistic approach to value investing and philosophy from his wide-ranging reading, combining practical approaches, self-cultivation, and business wisdom.

“The Joys of Compounding is a fresh opportunity to learn and relearn those key lessons that will make us better investors and better human beings. Gautam Baid has written something extraordinary.” —Guy Spier, CEO of Aquamarine Capital and author of The Education of a Value Investor

“An instant classic! Baid’s book is the definitive guide to lifelong learning for investors and all those seeking to reach their full potential.” —John Mihaljevic, chairman of MOI Global

Distilling investment and life lessons into a comprehensive guide, Baid integrates the strategies and wisdom of preeminent figures whose teachings have stood the test of time. Drawing on the work of investing greats like Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Ben Graham, as well as philosophers and scholars, he artfully interweaves the lessons learned from his many teachers. Baid demonstrates their practical applications in the areas of business, investing, and decision making and also shows that these ideas can be applied to one’s own life with just as much reward.

A celebration of the value-investing discipline, this book also recounts Baid’s personal experiences, testifying to his belief that the best investment you can make is an investment in yourself. The Joys of Compounding offers curated reflections on life and learning for all investors, investment enthusiasts, and readers seeking a dose of practical wisdom. This revised and updated edition highlights Baid’s distinctive voice. GAUTAM BAID,

Creating Strategic Value

Applying Value Investing Principles to Corporate Management JOSEPH CALANDRO JR. HOW TO IM P R OV E CO R PO R AT E M A N AG E M E N T A N D STRAT EGY V IA VALU E - I N V E ST I N G PR I N CI PL E S

The principles of value-investing have resonated with savvy practitioners in the world of finance for a long time. In Creating Strategic Value, Joseph Calandro Jr. explores how the core ideas and methods of value investing can be profitably applied to corporate strategy and management.

Calandro builds from an analysis of traditional value-investing concepts to their strategic applications. He surveys value investing’s past, present, and future, drawing on influential texts, from Graham and Dodd’s time-tested works to more recent studies, to reveal potent managerial lessons. He explains the theoretical aspects of value-investing-consistent approaches to corporate strategy and management and details how they can be successfully employed through practical case studies that demonstrate value realization in action. Calandro analyzes the applicability of key ideas such as the margin of safety principle to corporate strategy in a wide range of areas beyond stocks and bonds. He highlights the importance of an “information advantage”— knowing something that your competitors either do not know or choose to ignore—and explains how corporate managers can apply this key valueinvesting differentiator. Offering expert insight into the use of time-tested value-investing principles in new fields, Creating Strategic Value is an important book for corporate strategy and management practitioners at all levels as well as for students and researchers.

JOSEPH CALANDRO JR.

“Understanding values is the key to corporate success, and Graham and Dodd is the Rosetta Stone of unlocking values.

Notre-Dame of Amiens

Life of the Gothic Cathedral STEPHEN MURRAY

A G R A N D TO UR O F THE B EAUTI FUL A MI EN S CATHEDRA L

Notre-Dame of Amiens is one of the great Gothic cathedrals. Its construction began in 1220, and artistic production in the Gothic mode lasted well into the sixteenth century. In this magisterial chronicle, Stephen Murray invites readers to see the cathedral as more than just a thing of the past: it is a living document of medieval Christian society that endures in our own time.

“In Notre-Dame of Amiens, Murray inverts the usual narrative applied to a cathedral: rather than clearing away later accretions and alterations in a search for the purity of an original vision, he presents the building in time as a product of intentional interventions and unanticipated consequences. Rather than frozen in a moment or brief period of time, the fabric of Amiens cathedral offers an unfolding chronicle of structural behavior, changing devotional attitudes and practices, and shifting taste.” —Michael T. Davis, Mount Holyoke College

Murray tells the cathedral’s story from the overlapping perspectives of the social groups connected to it, exploring the ways that the layfolk who visit the cathedral occasionally, the clergy who use it daily, and the artisans who created it have interacted with the building over the centuries. He considers the cycles of human activity around the cathedral and shows how groups of makers and users have been inextricably intertwined in collaboration and, occasionally, conflict. The book travels around and through the spaces of the cathedral, allowing us to re-create similar passages by our medieval predecessors. Murray reveals the many worlds of the cathedral and brings them together in the architectural triumph of its central space.

A beautifully illustrated account of a grand and historically and religiously important building from a variety of perspectives and in a variety of time periods, this book offers readers a memorable tour of Notre-Dame of Amiens that celebrates the cathedral’s eight hundredth anniversary in 2020. Notre-Dame of Amiens is enhanced by highresolution images, liturgical music, and animations embedded in an innovative website. STEPHEN MURRAY

Ascent to Glory

How “One Hundred Years of Solitude” Was Written and Became a Global Classic ÁLVARO SANTANA-ACUÑA TRAC ING H OW T H E N OV E L BY G A BR I E L G A R C Í A MÁ R QUEZ WAS CAN O N I Z E D

Gabriel García Márquez’s novel One Hundred Years of Solitude seemed destined for obscurity upon its publication in 1967. The little-known author, small publisher, magical style, and setting in a remote Caribbean village were hardly the usual ingredients for success in the literary marketplace. Yet today it ranks among the best-selling books of all time. Translated into dozens of languages, it continues to enter the lives of new readers around the world. How did One Hundred Years of Solitude achieve this unlikely success? And what does its trajectory tell us about how a work of art becomes a classic?

© JENNY RODRÍGUEZ-PEÑA

Ascent to Glory is a groundbreaking study of One Hundred Years of Solitude, from the moment García Márquez first had the idea for the novel to its global consecration. Using new documents from the author’s archives, Álvaro Santana-Acuña shows how García Márquez wrote the novel, going beyond the many myths that surround it. He unveils the literary ideas and networks that made possible the book’s creation and initial success. Santana-Acuña then follows this novel’s path in more than seventy countries on five continents and explains how thousands of people and organizations have helped it to become a global classic. Shedding new light on the novel’s imagination, production, and reception, Ascent to Glory is an eye-opening book for cultural sociologists and literary historians as well as for fans of García Márquez and One Hundred Years of Solitude. ÁLVARO SANTANA-ACUÑA

“Ascent to Glory is an original and important book. It’s very well written, theoretically complex, and advances a compelling explanation of the processes through which Cien Años de Soledad achieved the status of a classic. Santana-Acuña is going to be a well-known and respected scholar in cultural sociology for years to come.” —Claudio E. Benzecry, author of The Opera Fanatic: Ethnography of an Obsession

Subterranean Fanon

An Underground Theory of Radical Change GAVIN ARNALL R E CON SI DERI N G FA N O N ’ S WO RK TO REVEA L A POW ERFUL VI SI O N O F C HA N GE

“Subterranean Fanon is grounded in Arnall’s expertise in Fanon’s writings, which he reads carefully and creatively. He develops an important argument about a central tension in Fanon’s thinking. This exemplary work of scholarship should shift the ground of debate about this canonical thinker. It is also a welcome example of next-generation postcolonial and political theory.” —Gary Wilder, author of Freedom Time: Negritude, Decolonization, and the Future of the World

The problem of change recurs across Frantz Fanon’s writings. As a philosopher, psychiatrist, and revolutionary, Fanon was deeply committed to theorizing and instigating change in all of its facets. Change is the thread that ties together his critical dialogue with Hegel, Marx, Freud, and Nietzsche and his intellectual exchange with Césaire, Kojève, and Sartre. It informs his analysis of racism and colonialism, négritude and the veil, language and culture, disalienation and decolonization, and it underpins his reflections on Martinique, Algeria, the Caribbean, Africa, the Third World, and the world at large.

Gavin Arnall traces an internal division throughout Fanon’s work between two distinct modes of thinking about change. He contends that there are two Fanons: a dominant Fanon, who conceives of change as a dialectical process of becoming, and a subterranean Fanon, who experiments with an even more explosive underground theory of transformation. Arnall offers close readings of Fanon’s entire oeuvre, from canonical works like Black Skin, White Masks and The Wretched of the Earth to his psychiatric papers and recently published materials, including his play, Parallel Hands. Speaking both to scholars and to the continued vitality of Fanon’s ideas among today’s social movements, this book offers a rigorous and profoundly original engagement with Fanon that affirms his importance in the effort to bring about radical change.

Foucault’s Strange Eros LYNNE HUFFER

HOW FOUCAULT INFO R M S A N E W ET H I C S O F E R OS

What is the strange eros that haunts Foucault’s writing? In this deeply original consideration of Foucault’s erotic ethics, Lynne Huffer provocatively rewrites Foucault as a Sapphic poet. She uncovers eros as a mode of thought that erodes the interiority of the thinking subject. Focusing on the ethical implications of this mode of thought, Huffer shows how Foucault’s poetic archival method offers a way to counter the disciplining of speech.

At the heart of this method is a conception of the archive as Sapphic: the past’s remains are, like Sappho’s verses, hole-ridden, scattered, and dissolved by time. Listening for eros across fragmented texts, Huffer stages a series of encounters within an archive of literary and theoretical readings: the eroticization of violence in works by Freud and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, the historicity of madness in the Foucault-Derrida debate, the afterlives of Foucault’s antiprison activism, and Monique Wittig’s Sapphic materialism. Through these encounters, Foucault’s Strange Eros conceives of ethics as experiments in living that work poetically to make the present strange. Crafting fragments that dissolve into Sapphic brackets, Huffer performs the ethics she describes in her own practice of experimental writing. Foucault’s Strange Eros hints at the self-hollowing speech of an eros that opens a space for the strange. LYNNE HUFFER

“Foucault’s Strange Eros challenges its readers to describe aptly, to touch delicately their seeking, mortal, embodied selves. The book elicits and sustains their interest. It rejoices on some pages to weep on others, but it is animated throughout by generous reading and creative responding.” —Mark Jordan, author of Convulsing Bodies: Religion and Resistance in Foucault

Universality and Identity Politics TODD McGOWAN

W H Y UN I VERSA LI TY I S THE EMA N C I PATO RY A LT E RN ATI VE TO RI GHT-WI N G I DEN TI TY P O LI TI C S

The great political ideas and movements of the modern world were founded on a promise of universal emancipation. But in recent decades, much of the left has grown suspicious of such aspirations. Critics see the invocation of universality as a form of domination or a way of speaking for others and have come to favor a politics of particularism—often derided as “identity politics.” Others, both centrists and conservatives, associate universalism with twentieth-century totalitarianism and hold that it is bound to lead to catastrophe.

This book develops a new conception of universality that helps us rethink political thought and action. Todd McGowan argues that universals such as equality and freedom are not imposed on us. They emerge from our shared experience of their absence and our struggle to attain them. McGowan reconsiders the history of Nazism and Stalinism and reclaims the universalism of movements fighting racism, sexism, and homophobia. He demonstrates that the divide between right and left comes down to particularity versus universality. Despite the accusation of identity politics directed against leftists, every emancipatory political project is fundamentally a universal one—and the real proponents of identity politics are the right wing. Through a wide range of examples in contemporary politics, film, and history, Universality and Identity Politics offers an antidote to the impasses of identity and an inspiring vision of twenty-first-century collective struggle.

“I used to be among those leftleaning academics who believe that universalism is problematic and that particularism represents a corrective to false universalism. Not anymore. McGowan shows that a genuinely emancipatory politics is intrinsically universalist and reveals the various ways in which identity politics inevitably serves the conservative establishment and traps us into a conception of politics as a struggle of one identity against others. Universality and Identity Politics is a genuinely groundbreaking book.” —Mari Ruti, author of Penis Envy and Other Bad Feelings: The Emotional Costs of Everyday Life

Social Appearances

A Philosophy of Display and Prestige BARBARA CARNEVALI Translated by Zakiya Hanafi WHY AP P EAR ANC E I S T H E FO U N DAT I O N O F S OC IAL L IF E

Philosophers have long distinguished between appearance and reality, and the opposition between a supposedly deceptive surface and a more profound truth is deeply rooted in Western culture. At a time of obsession with self-representation, when politics is enmeshed with spectacle and social and economic forces are intensely aestheticized, philosophy remains moored in traditional dichotomies: being versus appearing, interiority versus exteriority, authenticity versus alienation. Might there be more to appearance than meets the eye?

In this strikingly original book, Barbara Carnevali offers a philosophical examination of the roles that appearances play in social life. While Western metaphysics and morals have predominantly disdained appearances and expelled them from their domain, Carnevali invites us to look at society, ancient to contemporary, as an aesthetic phenomenon. The ways in which we appear in public and the impressions we make in terms of images, sounds, smells, and sensations are discerned by other people’s senses and assessed according to their taste; this helps shape our ways of being and the world around us. Carnevali shows that an understanding of appearances is necessary to grasp the dynamics of interaction, recognition, and power in which we live—and to avoid being dominated by them. Anchored in philosophy and traversing sociology, art history, literature, and popular culture, Social Appearances develops new theoretical and conceptual tools for today’s most urgent critical tasks. BARBARA CARNEVALI

“Every sentence in this brilliant book is a unit of thought; it’s as epigrammatic as Nietzsche and as seamlessly developed as, say, Hume. And it helps that it’s new. Carnevali has restored aesthetics to its central role in philosophy.” —Edmund White, author of The Unpunished Vice: A Life of Reading

Downsizing

Confronting Our Possessions in Later Life DAVID EKERDT H OW O LDER A DULTS A RE REDUC I N G THEI R ACCU MULATED MATERI A L O B J EC TS

As life unfolds, things tend to accumulate. When older adults undergo health, residential, and marital changes, they will face a reckoning with their lifelong store of possessions—special, ordinary, and forgotten. Such a predicament now confronts tens of millions of Americans as the Baby Boom cohort passes into retirement and beyond. Despite what a thriving industry of clutter manuals tells us, for most older adults, downsizing is no simple task.

Drawing on in-depth interviews with recent movers in over a hundred diverse U.S. households, David Ekerdt analyzes the downsizing process and what it says about the meaning and management of possessions. He details how households approach and accomplish downsizing, exploring the decisionmaking process and the effectiveness of different strategies. From an expert gerontological perspective, he considers the cognitive, physical, emotional, and social tasks that the process entails and the role of factors such as gender and class on the divestment of things. Ekerdt finds that despite the fatigue and emotional challenges people encounter, afterward they report satisfaction in having completed a downsizing and feel empowerment on the other side of the task. Offering an empathetic and practical look at one of life’s major transitions, Downsizing brings forward the voices of elders so that older adults, their families and friends, and practitioners working with older clients can understand and benefit from their experience.

“Downsizing is a good read that advances the notion that the life course within social gerontology needs to take a material turn. It is hard to imagine a reader who could not relate to this book.” —Renee Beard, College of the Holy Cross

A College of Her Own

The History of Barnard ROBERT McCAUGHEY

HOW BAR NAR D COLL E G E BE CA M E A L E A D I N G I N STIT UT ION FOR WO M E N ’ S E D U CAT I O N

In 1889, Annie Nathan Meyer, still in her early twenties, led the effort to start Barnard College after Columbia College refused to admit women. Named after a former Columbia president, Frederick Barnard, who had advocated for Columbia to become coeducational, Barnard, despite many ups and downs, became one of the leading women’s colleges in the United States.

A College of Her Own offers a comprehensive and lively narrative of Barnard from its beginnings to the present day. Through the stories of presidents and leading figures as well as students and faculty, Robert McCaughey recounts Barnard’s history and how its development was shaped by its complicated relationship to Columbia University and its New York City location. McCaughey considers how the student composition of Barnard and its urban setting distinguished it from other Seven Sisters colleges, tracing debates around class, ethnicity, and admissions policies. Turning to the postwar era, A College of Her Own discusses how Barnard benefited from the boom in higher education. Beyond the decisions made at the top, McCaughey examines the experience of Barnard students, including the tumult and aftereffects of 1968 and the impact of the feminist movement. The concluding section looks at present-day Barnard, the shifts in its student body, and its efforts to be a global institution. Informed by McCaughey’s five decades as a Barnard faculty member and administrator, A College of Her Own is a compelling history of a remarkable institution.

Étienne Balibar explores the tensions between cosmopolitanism and secularism in order to advance a truly democratic and emancipatory cosmopolitanism. Going beyond circumscribed notions of religion and the public sphere, Secularism and Cosmopolitanism is a profound rethinking of identity and difference.

Alain Badiou offers a highly original and compelling account of Lacan’s psychoanalytic theory and therapeutic practice. The book offers a forceful reading of an enigmatic yet foundational thinker and sheds light on the crucial role that Lacan plays in Badiou’s own thought.

The future of fiction is neither global nor national. Instead, Matthew Hart argues, it is trending extraterritorial. Extraterritorial spaces fall outside of national borders but enhance state power. They range from the United Nations headquarters and international waters to CIA black sites and the departure zones at international airports. Hart reveals extraterritoriality’s centrality to twenty-first-century art and fiction and presents a new theory of literature that explains what happens when dreams of an open, connected world confront the reality of mobile, elastic, and tenacious borders.

Bookishness

Loving Books in a Digital Age JESSICA PRESSMAN HOW BOOKS AS OB J E C TS H AV E BE CO M E S O U R C E S O F ME ANING IN T H E T W E N T Y- FI R ST C E N T U RY

Twenty-first-century culture is obsessed with books. In a time when many voices have joined to predict the death of print, books continue to resurface in new and unexpected ways. From the proliferation of “shelfies” to Jane Austen–themed leggings and from decorative pillows printed with beloved book covers to bookwork sculptures exhibited in prestigious collections, books are everywhere and are not just for reading. Writers have caught up with this trend: many contemporary novels depict books as central characters or fetishize paper and print thematically and formally.

In Bookishness, Jessica Pressman examines the new status of the book as object and symbol. She explores the rise of “bookishness” as an identity and an aesthetic strategy that proliferates from storewindow décor to experimental writing. Ranging from literature to kitsch objects, stop-motion animation films to book design, Pressman considers the multivalent meanings of books in contemporary culture. Books can represent shelter from—or a weapon against—the dangers of the digital; they can act as memorials and express a sense of loss. Examining the works of writers such as Jonathan Safran Foer, Jennifer Egan, Mark Z. Danielewski, and Leanne Shapton, Pressman illuminates the status of the book as a fetish object and its significance for understanding contemporary fakery. Bringing together media studies, book history, and literary criticism, Bookishness explains how books still give meaning to our lives in a digital age. JESSICA PRESSMAN

“Jessica Pressman’s great strength lies in her wonderful touch for the material. Her expansive command of exemplars runs the gamut from the high literary to cultural kitsch. Bookishness offers that rare and enviable combination of fascinating source material and an easily transportable take-away—the title term, which is sure to become widely adopted and relied upon.” —Matthew Kirschenbaum, University of Maryland

English and comparative literature at San Diego State University, where she cofounded the Digital Humanities Initiative. She is the author of Digital Modernism: Making It New in New Media (2014) and coeditor of Book Presence in a Digital Age (2018), among other works.

Degenerative Realism

Poems and New Media from the Magic Lantern to Instagram

MIKE CHASAR

CHRISTY WAMPOLE

“A persuasive, thoroughly researched, memorable, and often delightful book.” —Stephanie Burt, Harvard University

“This book is timely in its intervention, and it offers a bracing portrait of the new degenerative realists. Wampole makes a persuasive case for the coherence and significance of this reactionary literary tendency.”

Mike Chasar rebuts claims that poetry has become a marginal art form, exploring how it has played a vibrant and culturally significant role by adapting to and shaping new media technologies. Beginning with the magic lantern and continuing through the dominance of the internet, he follows poetry’s travels off the page into new media formats, including silent film, sound film, and television. Ranging from Citizen Kane to Leave It to Beaver to Rupi Kaur, Poetry Unbound reveals poetry’s ability to find new audiences and meanings in media forms with which it has often been thought to be incompatible.

—Lee Konstantinou, University of Maryland

A new strain of realism has arisen in France. Novels that contain it represent diverse fears—immigration and demographic change, radical Islam, feminism, new technologies, globalization, American capitalism, and the European Union—but share crucial affinities. In their dystopian visions, the collapse of Western civilization is portrayed as all but certain, and the literary mode of realism begins to break down. Examining key novels by Michel Houellebecq, Frédéric Beigbeder, Yann Moix, and other French writers, Christy Wampole identifies and critiques this emergent tendency.

Midcentury Suspension

Female Citizenship, Human Rights, and the International Avant-Gardes

Literature and Feeling in the Wake of World War II

JILL RICHARDS

CLAIRE SEILER

“Richards’s book is masterful in its range of inquiries, beautifully written, and elegantly argued.” —Elizabeth S. Anker, Cornell University

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, radical women’s movements and the avant-gardes were often in contact with each other. Jill Richards argues that these movements offered each other an experimental language that could move beyond the nation-state’s rights of man and citizen. Rather than focus on the demand for the vote, The Fury Archives turns to the daily practices and social worlds of feminist action. It offers an alternative history of women’s rights, practiced by female arsonists, suffragette rioters, industrial saboteurs, self-named terrorists, lesbian criminals, and queer resistance cells. JILL RICHARDS

is assistant professor of English and affili-

ated faculty in the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program at Yale University. She is a coauthor of The Ferrante Letters: An Experiment in Collective Criticism (Columbia,

“It is impossible not to be impressed by the highly accomplished results on offer in Seiler’s reconfiguration of early postwar transatlantic literature. I suspect that her revisionist efforts to construct the intellectual framework of the midcentury and its suspensions will significantly reshape our understanding of this period for years to come.” —Deak Nabers, Brown University

How did literary artists confront the middle of a century already defined by two global wars and newly faced with a nuclear future? Claire Seiler argues that a sense of suspension—a feeling of being between beginnings and endings, recent horrors and opaque horizons—shaped transatlantic literary forms and cultural expression in this singular moment.

Focusing on the development of Baltimore’s wealthiest, whitest neighborhoods, Paige Glotzer offers a new understanding of the deeper roots of suburban segregation. The mid-twentieth-century policies that favored exclusionary housing were not simply the inevitable result of popular and elite prejudice, she reveals, but the culmination of a long-term effort by developers to use racism to structure suburban real estate markets.

Beginning in the 1950s, a group of North Carolina academics, businesspeople, and politicians set out on an ambitious project, positioning the universities of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill as the kernel of a new tech hub.

Since the mid-twentieth century, the United States and Saudi Arabia have built a close but often troubled alliance. In this critical history, Victor McFarland reveals the deep ties binding the leaders of the two nations. Connecting foreign relations and domestic politics, he challenges the view that the U.S.-Saudi alliance is the inevitable consequence of American energy demand and Saudi Arabia’s huge oil reserves. Oil Powers traces the growth of the alliance through a dense web of political, economic, and social connections that bolstered royal and executive power and the national-security state.

episode in Japanese religious and cultural history.”

—Andrew David Jackson, Monash University

—Elizabeth Morrison, Middlebury College

After a Chosŏn faction realigned Korea with the Ming dynasty, the Manchu attacked in 1627 and again a decade later, forcing Korea to support the newly founded Qing dynasty. The Korean scholar-official Na Man’gap (1592–1642) recorded the second Manchu invasion in the only first-person account chronicling the dramatic Korean resistance. George Kallander’s critical introduction and extensive annotations place The Diary of 1636 in its historical, political, and military context.

In 1829, three women and three men were paraded through Osaka and crucified. Placards set up at the execution ground proclaimed their crime: they were devotees of the “pernicious creed” of Christianity. Christian Sorcerers on Trial offers annotated translations of a range of sources on this sensational event, from the 1827 arrest of the alleged Christians through the case’s afterlife.

Staging Personhood

Costuming in Early Qing Drama GUOJUN WANG

The Korean Vernacular Story

Telling Tales of Contemporary Chosŏn in Sinographic Writing SI NAE PARK

“A marvelous piece of scholarship, Staging Personhood presents an exhaustive study of the function of clothing on stage and off.” —Stephen H. West, Arizona State University

“The first full-length examination of the yadam genre, The Korean Vernacular Story examines the literary and social milieu in late Chosŏn Seoul using meticulous research.”

After toppling the Ming dynasty, the Qing conquerors forced Han Chinese men to adopt Manchu hairstyle and clothing. Yet China’s new rulers permitted the use of traditional Chinese attire in performances, making theater one of the only areas of life where Han garments could still be seen and where Manchu rule could be contested. Staging Personhood uncovers a hidden history of the Ming-Qing transition by exploring what it meant for the clothing of a deposed dynasty to survive onstage. Reading dramatic texts and performances against Qing sartorial regulations, Guojun Wang offers an interdisciplinary lens on the entanglements between Chinese drama and nascent Manchu rule in seventeenth-century China. GUOJUN WANG

—Michael J. Pettid, Binghamton University

Si Nae Park examines how the culture of Chosŏn Seoul gave rise to a new vernacular literary form (yadam), anonymously and unofficially circulating tales. She focuses on the collection Repeatedly Recited Stories of the East, which was written in a new medium in which Literary Sinitic is hybridized with the vernacular realities of Chosŏn society. The Korean Vernacular Story combines historical insight, textual studies, and the history of the book and challenges the script (han’gŭl)focused understanding of Korean language and literature.

Stating the Sacred

Religion, China, and the Formation of the Nation-State MICHAEL J. WALSH “This book is a major contribution to our understanding of how the sacred works in the modern and how the modern works the sacred.” —David Chidester, author of Empire of Religion: Imperialism and Comparative Religion

Focusing primarily on China, Michael J. Walsh offers a novel approach to nationstate formation, arguing that its most critical element is how the state sacralizes the nation. He argues that the foundational role of the sacred makes all nation-states religious states. Stating the Sacred offers new ways of understanding China’s approach to legality, control of the populace, religious freedom, human rights, and the structuring of international relations, and it raises existential questions about the fundamental nature of the nation-state.

“Collins’s previous books have all been field-changing works. Wisdom as a Way of Life is no exception.” —Anne M. Blackburn, author of Locations of Buddhism: Colonialism and Modernity in Sri Lanka

This wide-ranging and powerful book argues that Theravāda Buddhism provides ways of thinking about the self that offer broader insights into how to learn and how to act. A bold reappraisal of the history of Buddhist literature and practice, Wisdom as a Way of Life offers students and scholars across the disciplines a nuanced understanding of the significance of Buddhist ways of knowing.

The Treasury of the True Dharma Eye (Shōbōgenzō) is the masterwork of Dōgen (1200–1253), founder of the Sōtō Zen Buddhist sect in Kamakura-era Japan. The text is complex and compelling, famed for its eloquent yet perplexing manner of expressing the core precepts of Zen teachings and practice.

Dewei Zhang explores the history of the boom in enthusiasm for Buddhism in the Jiajing-Wanli era (1522–1620), tracing a pattern of advances and retrenchment at different social levels in varied regions. He reveals that the Buddhist renewal was a dynamic movement that engaged a wide swath of elites, from emperors and empress dowagers to eunuchs and scholar-officials. A groundbreaking interdisciplinary study, Thriving in Crisis provides a new theoretical framework for understanding the patterns of Buddhist history in China. DEWEI ZHANG

In recent years, Sufism has been held up as a supposedly peaceful alternative to the spread of forms of Islam associated with violence.

How did the concept of the director as author of the film become so deeply ingrained in our understanding of cinema? Virginia Wright Wexman offers a groundbreaking history of how movie directors became cinematic auteurs that reveals and pinpoints the influence of the Directors Guild of America. Drawing on a broad array of archival sources, interviews, and theoretical and sociological insight, Hollywood’s Artists sheds new light on the ways in which the Guild has shaped the role and image of directors both within the Hollywood system and in the culture at large.

The advent of new screening practices and viewing habits in the twenty-first century has spurred a public debate over what it means to be a “cinephile.” In Anxious Cinephilia, Sarah Keller places these competing visions in historical and theoretical perspective, tracing how the love of movies intertwines with anxieties over the content and impermanence of cinematic images. This book reimagines the concept of cinephilia to embrace its diverse forms and its uncertain future. SARAH KELLER

Debashree Mukherjee provides a panoramic history of early Bombay cinema and its consolidation in the 1930s that illuminates the relationship between a modernizing city in the throes of anticolonial agitation and a film industry struggling to craft a viable cultural and commercial form. Bombay Hustle offers vital insight into practices of modernity and political, social, and technological change in late colonial India. DEBASHREE MUKHERJEE

is an assistant professor in the

Department of Middle Eastern, South Asian, and African Studies at Columbia University. She formerly worked in the Bombay film industry.

Making Worlds argues that contemporary European cinema provides ways of thinking about and feeling collectivity that can challenge the twenty-first century’s alarming political trends. Claudia Breger offers nuanced readings of films by directors such as Michael Haneke, Alejandro Iñárritu, Fatih Akin, Asghar Farhadi, and Aki Kaurismäki.

The Cinema of Paolo Sorrentino

Herstories on Screen

Commitment to Style

Feminist Subversions of Frontier Myths

RUSSELL J. A. KILBOURN

KATHLEEN CUMMINS

“The Cinema of Paolo Sorrentino will be a touchstone for future work on the director. Kilbourn writes in a lively, clear, and engaging tone, translating concepts from a wide array of fields in a very accessible fashion.” —Dana Renga, author of Mafia Movies: A Reader

Paolo Sorrentino, director of Il Divo (2008) and The Great Beauty (2013) and creator of the HBO series The Young Pope (2016), has emerged as one of the most compelling figures in twenty-first-century European film. This book is a critical examination of Sorrentino’s work, focusing on his emergence as a preeminent transnational auteur. Russell J. A. Kilbourn offers close readings of Sorrentino’s feature films and television output in the first English-language study of the acclaimed director’s oeuvre. RUSSELL J. A. KILBOURN

is professor of English and

film studies at Wilfrid Laurier University. His books include Cinema, Memory, Modernity: The Representation of Memory from the Art Film to Transnational Cinema (2010) and W. G.

From the late 1970s into the early 1990s, a generation of female filmmakers took aim at their home countries’ popular myths of the frontier. Herstories on Screen is a transnational study of feature narrative films from Australia, Canada, the United States, and New Zealand/Aotearoa that deconstruct settler-colonial myths. Kathleen Cummins offers in-depth readings of ten works by a diverse range of women filmmakers including Jane Campion, Julie Dash, Merata Mita, Tracey Moffat, and Anne Wheeler. She reveals how they skillfully deploy genre tropes and popular storytelling conventions in order to critique master narratives of feminine domesticity and purity and depict women and subaltern people performing acts of agency and resistance. KATHLEEN CUMMINS

is a film professor in the Faculty of

Animation, Arts, and Design at Sheridan College. She is also a filmmaker whose work has been broadcast and screened internationally.

The Closed Circle offers an unprecedented inside view into how one of the world’s most influential Islamist groups operates. Lorenzo Vidino marshals unique interviews with prominent former members and associates of the Muslim Brotherhood from Europe, the United Kingdom, and North America, shedding light on why and how people join and leave.

Why do people persist in supporting torture—and can they be persuaded to change their minds? Erin M. Kearns and Joseph K.

—Scott Bollens, University of California, Irvine

—Saadia Pekkanen, University of Washington

Michael Dumper explores the causes and consequences of contemporary conflicts in holy cities. He offers five case studies of important disputes, beginning with Jerusalem, often seen as the paradigmatic example of a holy city in conflict, and discussing Córdoba, Banaras, Lhasa, and George Town in Malaysia. Applying the lessons drawn from these cities to a broader global urban landscape, Power, Piety, and the People offers scholars and policy makers new insights into a pervasive category of conflict that often appears intractable.

Since the mid-1990s, Japanese policy has shifted to a new liberal strategy emphasizing regional institution building and rule setting. Japan’s New Regional Reality offers a comprehensive analysis of Japan’s geoeconomic strategy that reveals the country’s role in shaping regional economic order in the Asia-Pacific. Saori N. Katada explains Japanese foreign economic policy in light of both international and domestic dynamics.

Doctors’ Orders

The Making of Status Hierarchies in an Elite Profession TANIA M. JENKINS

The United States does not have enough doctors. Every year since the 1950s, internationally trained and osteopathic medical graduates have been needed to fill residency positions because there are too few American-trained MDs. These international and osteopathic graduates have similar or better average track records than their American-trained MD counterparts. But they often end up in lowerprestige training programs while American-trained MDs tend to occupy elite training positions. Some programs are even fully segregated, accepting exclusively U.S. medical graduates or non-U.S. medical graduates, depending on the program’s prestige. How do international and osteopathic medical graduates end up so marginalized, and what allows U.S.-trained MDs to remain elite?

“Doctors’ Orders sheds light on an area of medical sociology that is important but not terribly well understood. Jenkins’s book is well

Doctors’ Orders offers a groundbreaking examination of the construction and consequences of status distinctions between physicians before, during, and after residency training. Tania M. Jenkins spent years observing and interviewing American, international, and osteopathic medical residents in two hospitals to reveal the unspoken mechanisms that lead to hierarchies among supposed equals. By relying on a system of informal beliefs and practices that equate status with merit and eclipse structural disadvantages, the profession convinces international and osteopathic graduates to participate in a system that subordinates them to American-trained MDs. Offering a rare ethnographic look at the inner workings of an elite profession, Doctors’ Orders sheds new light on the formation of informal status hierarchies and their significance for both doctors and patients.

Known for its pioneering studies of urban life, immigration, and criminality using the “city as laboratory,” the so-called Chicago school of sociology has been a dominant presence in American social science since it emerged around the University of Chicago in the early decades of the twentieth century. Jean-Michel Chapoulie’s groundbreaking book on the development and influence of the Chicago tradition provides a unique perspective on the history of social science. JEAN-MICHEL CHAPOULIE

The People’s Choice is a landmark psychological and statistical study of American voters during the 1940 and 1944 presidential elections, originally published in 1948.

COLUMBIA BOOKS ON ARCHITECTURE AND THE CITY

Preservation and Social Inclusion ERICA AVRAMI, EDITOR

The field of historic preservation is becoming more socially and culturally inclusive through increasing diversity in the profession and enhanced community engagement. However, within New York City and around the United States, that engagement is relatively ad hoc and focused on the designation process. Enhancing the policy toolbox for how significant places can be valued and by whom could help build capacities for engaging and empowering traditionally underrepresented communities. Bringing together a broad range of academics, historians, and practitioners, this second volume in the Issues in Preservation Policy series documents historic preservation’s progress toward inclusivity and explores further steps to be taken.

The publication includes contributions from Fallon Samuels Aidoo, Ciere Boatright, Sangita Chari, Caroline Cheong, Sara Delgadillo Cruz, Andrew Dolkart, Jenna Dublin, Ingrid Gould Ellen, Donna Graves, Claudia Guerra, Janet Hansen, Maria Rosario Jackson, Brent Leggs, Michelle Magalong, Brian J.

The Italian Invert

Intimate Confessions of a Homosexual to Émile Zola MICHAEL ROSENFELD WITH WILLIAM A. PENISTON, EDITORS Translated by Nancy Erber and William A. Peniston

FOR SALE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD

“A brilliant archival discovery, a triumph of careful scholarship, an unsuspected episode in modern literature, a moving testimony about sex and love, and a fascinating, previously censored chapter in the history of sexuality. Rosenfeld masterfully restores the context in which conscious writing about homosexuality emerged in Europe during the last decades of the nineteenth century.” —David Halperin, W. H. Auden Distinguished University Professor, University of Michigan

In the late 1880s, a dashing young Italian aristocrat confesses his life story to the famous novelist Émile Zola. In his revealing text, he frankly describes his seduction as a teenager by one of his father’s (male) friends, his first love affair with a sergeant in his military regiment, and his “extraordinary” personality. Judging it too controversial, Zola gives it to a young doctor, Georges Saint-Paul, who publishes a censored version in 1896 in a medical study on sexual perversion. A few months later, the Italian finds this medical treatise in a bookstore and is shocked to discover that the doctor censored and distorted the most daring parts of his text in order to support his own theories. He protests by writing a long, unapologetic, and even more daring letter to the doctor, forthrightly expressing his desires and defending his right to lead his own life.

This is the first complete, unexpurgated version in English of this famous gay autobiography. Two analytical essays—one by Michael Rosenfeld on the relationships among Zola, Saint-Paul, and the Italian “invert,” and the other by Clive Thomson on the doctor’s career—provide further context to this remarkable voice from the past. MICHAEL ROSENFELD

is a doctoral candidate at the Université

Sorbonne Nouvelle–Paris 3 and at the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium. His thesis is on the representation of homosexuality in public discourse, intimate writing, and literature in France and Belgium from 1870 to 1905. WILLIAM A. PENISTON

It offers contemporary, empirically based guidance for practitioners and educators in all major mental health and counseling professions. “Conversion therapy” and “reparative therapy” were the previous terms used to describe efforts to reshape an individual’s sexual orientation or gender identity. The use of the term “therapy” tacitly and falsely implied that such efforts were based on empirically validated mental health practice.

NOlympians

Inside the Fight Against Capitalist Mega-Sports in Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Beyond JULES BOYKOFF

NOlympians investigates the intersection of the global rise of anti-Olympics activism and the declining popularity of hosting of the Games. The Olympics were once buoyed by myths of luminous prosperity and upticks in tourism and jobs, but in recent years these assurances have been debunked. Now more than ever, it’s clear that the Olympics have transmogrified into a political-economic juggernaut that arrives with displacement, expanded policing, and antidemocratic backroom deals.

“The need for critical writing about the Olympics has never been more important, and no one does it more effectively or incisively than Jules Boykoff. Here he shows us not only the potential harm of the LA 2028 Summer Games but the activists who are bringing this reality to light.” —Dave Zirin, sports editor for The Nation

Jules Boykoff—a former professional soccer player who represented the U.S. Olympic team—zooms in on Los Angeles, where the Democratic Socialists of America have launched the NOlympics LA campaign ahead of the 2028 Summer Games. Boykoff shows how DSA-LA’s anti-Olympics activism fits with the resurgence of socialism in the United States and beyond.

Based on more than 100 interviews with antiOlympics activists; personal experiences at protests in Los Angeles, Rio de Janeiro, London, and Tokyo; academic research, mass- and alternative-media coverage; and Olympic archives, NOlympians tells the story of activists fighting against the odds and embracing the transformative politics of democratic socialism.

More Powerful Together

Conversations with Climate Activists and Indigenous Land Defenders JEN GOBBY

How can social movements help bring about large-scale systems change? This is the question Jen Gobby sets out to answer in More Powerful Together. As an activist, Gobby has been actively involved with climate justice, anti-pipeline, and Indigenous land-defense movements in Canada for many years. As a researcher, she has sat down with folks from these movements and asked them to reflect on their experiences with movement building. Bringing their incredibly poignant insights into dialogue with scholarly and activist literature on transformation, Gobby weaves a powerful story about how change happens. Indigenous scholarship, ecological principles, and activist reflections all converge on the insight that the means and ends of radical transformation is in forging relationships of equality and reciprocity with one another and with the land.

P3s in an Age of Austerity

Immigrant Women and Domestic Violence

JOHN LOXLEY

WENDY CHAN

Public-private partnerships (P3s), in which the private sector takes on roles previously carried out by the public sector, have been heavily promoted throughout the world, but especially in the UK, the United States, and Canada. In Ideology Over Economics, the economist John Loxley examines the expansion of P3s following the 2008 global financial crisis, when corporations responded by lobbying governments for financial assistance and austerity governments responded by expanding financial resources for P3s. In a close examination of case studies of P3s in the UK, Canada, and developing countries, Loxley concludes that P3s do not achieve any of their promised goals. He argues that their expansion owes more to ideology than to a rational evaluation of their benefits.

Immigrant women not only are at greater risk of experiencing domestic violence but also underutilize mainstream services because their needs are not adequately met by them. Many immigrant women stay in abusive relationships because of the inadequate support available, despite the extraordinary efforts of many service providers. Based on interviews with service providers from the immigration, criminal justice, and family justice systems in four different communities in British Columbia, Hiding in Plain Sight examines the barriers encountered by abused immigrant women across Canada as they seek services and support. Wendy Chan identifies the key challenges for women accessing services as well as the struggles service organizations experience in meeting their needs.

Despite predictions that they are destined to disappear, smallholder or family farms still number more than 500 million worldwide and account for more than 90 percent of all the world’s farm units and 80 percent of the world’s food. However, the world over, smallholder farmer populations are aging, and many of them have no successor. Agriculture and the Generation Problem examines the dynamics of the transfer of resources and opportunities between the generations in rural communities and argues that we must take generational relations seriously if we are to understand the future of farming.

The Political Economy of Agrarian Extractivism Lessons from Bolivia BEN M. M c KAY

Challenging the Right, Augmenting the Left Recasting Leftist Imagination

ROBERT LATHAM, JULIAN VON BARGEN,

The Political Economy of Agrarian Extractivism analyzes how the Bolivian countryside is transformed by the development and expansion of soybean production and reveals the extractive dynamics of capitalist industrial agriculture while also challenging dominant discourses legitimating this form of production as a means to achieve rural development and food security. Ben M. McKay finds that within the context of Bolivia’s first indigenous president, Evo Morales, and his “government of social movements,” fundamental contradictions abound. BEN M. M c KAY

new generation. His insights, freshly interpreted in the pages of landscape designs and drawings, give me hope for the future of our planet.” —Bruce Babbitt, former U.S. secretary of the interior

“Ian McHarg would be heartened to see the range and quality of thinking he’s inspired. Each of these essays will leave you with an enlarged sense of possibility, which is a great gift in a constrained world.” —Bill McKibben, author of Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?

In 1969, Ian McHarg’s seminal book Design with Nature set forth a new vision for regional planning using natural systems. To celebrate its fiftieth anniversary, a team of landscape architects and planners from the University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design have showcased some of the most advanced ecological design projects in the world today. Written in clear language and featuring vivid color images, Design with Nature Now demonstrates McHarg’s enduring influence on contemporary practitioners as they contend with climate change and other twenty-first-century challenges. “Like Ian McHarg’s classic Design with Nature, this beautiful and fulsome reprise of his earlier work inspires us with its sheer virtuosity. Yes, it looks back at the pioneering work of McHarg, but, much more, it elucidates contemporary challenges with boldness and precision. Human destruction and climate change are front and center, but so are dynamic planning and deep understanding of the places we inhabit and the ecological threats they face.

Film Curatorship

Archives, Museums, and the Digital Marketplace PAOLO CHERCHI USAI, DAVID FRANCIS, ALEXANDER HORWATH, AND MICHAEL LOEBENSTEIN, EDITORS

What are the major issues and challenges film archives, cinémathèques, and film museums are bound to face in the digital age and at a time when there is an expectation of access on demand? What is curatorship, and what does it imply in the context of film preservation and presentation? Is there a concept of the “film artifact” that transcends the idea of film as “content” or “art” in the information age?

Film Curatorship is an experiment: a collective text, a montage of dialogues, conversations, and exchanges among four professionals representing three generations of film archivists and curators. It calls for an open philosophical and ethical debate on fundamental questions the profession must come to terms with in the twenty-first century.

After several years out of print, the book will be republished with a new foreword in 2020.

“The volume on hand is actually about curatorship in the original sense: how people build up a collection of (art) objects and related materials, take care of the corpus created, and show parts of it in a way that makes sense of the objects and thus helps create further levels of enlightenment and meaning.” —CinemaScope

Reading the Plural Through Gandhi KUMKUM SANGARI

F O R SA L E T H R O U G H O U T T H E WO R L D, E XC LU D I N G S O U T H A S I A

Alternative visions of our plural pasts are evacuated and erased, and strategies of labor import, discrimination, racialization, internal colonization, uncertain citizenship, border control, surveillance, ghettoization, the cordoning of land and resources for the few morph and arc across the long twentieth century. The questions Gandhi asked about imperial nations and how free nations should be made remain at the core of challenges to casteist, racist, patriarchal, and sectarian regimes. This book examines Gandhi’s struggle with the burden of received colonial historiography, legal systems, scriptural texts, and racialized and patriarchal vocabulary in the attempt to confront colonial oppression and social exclusion. The openings and impasses, thresholds and limits, successes and failures are equally instructive when read as a series of resolved and unresolved contradictions. KUMKUM SANGARI

Weighing the Evidence: Who Killed Gandhi?

The Justice Jeevan Lal Kapur Commission of Inquiry Report ANNOTATED AND EDITED BY TEESTA SETALVAD

This volume brings to light the report of the Kapur Commission, which was appointed by the government of India in 1965 to examine the depth and scope of the conspiracy behind the killing of Gandhi. This threevolume report has been absent from the public domain though it contains invaluable evidence—intelligence reports, oral and documentary testimony—of the extent of complicity. The commission, headed by Justice Jeevan Lal Kapur, a former judge of the Supreme Court, examined voluminous evidence. Kapur concluded that the facts, taken together, undermined “any theory other than the conspiracy to murder senior leaders” by functionaries of supremacist organizations like the Hindu Mahasabha and those closely allied to them.

Ghatak’s Partition Quartet: The Screenplays Volume 1

IRA BHASKAR, EDITOR Translated by Rani Ray

Set in Calcutta in the immediate aftermath of Partition, Ritwik Ghatak’s Nagarik (released in 1977 after Ghatak’s death in 1976) chronicles the struggles of a refugee family from East Bengal as they desperately strive to survive in a metropolis that is unable to address the necessities of thousands of people pouring in from across the border. Unemployment, starvation, incessant dislocation, and the yearning for stability and a home mark the lives of the refugee families in this film. Ghatak was to return to the theme in three other films that have been known as the Partition Trilogy—Meghe Dhaka Tara, Komal Gandhar, and Subarnarekha. With this translation of the screenplay of Nagarik, it will be clear that Ghatak’s Partition films form a quartet. IRA BHASKAR

During the whole of his writing career August Strindberg was a restless canon maker. This volume gathers contributions from renowned Strindberg scholars to discuss questions such as: How did Strindberg construct a canon of his predecessors, and to which traditions did he link himself ? How is a Strindbergian text altered in performative practice in theater? How did Strindberg, with his strong bonds with Sweden as nation, relate to foreign cultural values?

Angrynomics

ERIC LONERGAN AND MARK BLYTH

Economics increasingly fails to explain why the pressures of life appear to be intensifying when income per capita is rising, why we work more hours for less money in real terms, and why we see the rise of nationalism everywhere when globalization, on average, has made us all richer. The disconnect between our experience of the world and the economic model used to explain it has given rise to “angrynomics”: an economy of heightened uncertainty and anger, where faith in the workings of markets and politics has been undermined and rapid and seemingly ever-accelerating economic change has become something to be feared.

Eric Lonergan and Mark Blyth have written a book for anyone anxious—or angry—about the mismatch between how they experience the world with the increasing day-to-day pressures they face and the model used by economic elites and politicians to explain and justify it. In a powerful and passionately argued analysis, they bring their critical insight and expertise to bear on the nature of angrynomics. Lonergan and Blyth offer a set of radical and innovative policies that cut across tired party political lines—and that if implemented might just help the world to be a less angry place.

What We Can Learn from the World’s Happiest Country DANNY DORLING AND ANNIKA KOLJONEN

In 2018, the World Happiness Report ranked Finland the world’s happiest country, both for its total population and for the immigrants living there. The United States and the United Kingdom were placed eighteenth (fifteenth for immigrants) and nineteenth (twentieth for immigrants), respectively. The Nordic model has long been touted as the aspiration for social and public policy in Europe and North America, but what is it about Finland that makes the country so successful and seemingly such a great place to live? Is it simply the level of government spending on health, education, and welfare? Is it that Finland has one of the lowest rates of social inequality and childhood poverty and highest rates of literacy and education? Finland clearly has problems of its own—for example, a high level of gun ownership and rising rates of suicide—which can make Finns skeptical of their ranking, but its consistently high performance across a range of well-being indicators does raise fascinating questions.

In commemoration of the founding of the Council of European Studies fifty years ago, this volume brings together some of the most influential Europeanists writing today to take stock of the subject and to consider the most fruitful avenues for future research. With European democracy seemingly under threat from populism on the Left and the Right, the economies of countries still struggling to emerge from a decade of recession and stagnating growth, environmental concerns paramount, and the quest for social cohesion a distant goal, the contributors to this volume bring their insight to bear on the fertile ground that the EU and the continent more broadly offer for researchers across the social sciences and humanities.

The Conservative Challenge to Globalization

Anglo-American Perspectives RAY KIELY

Ray Kiely examines the conservative discourse of “winners” and “losers” of globalization that has emerged since the financial crisis and that has been used to reflect real and imagined threats to domestic economies and national identity. Both the election of Donald Trump and the UK’s Brexit vote are potent examples of the success of this conservative (anti-)globalization rhetoric, which has informed popular mantras of deregulation and economic nationalism.

The book explores the nostalgia for a supposed former age of economic and societal harmony that has characterized U.S. and UK conservative responses to the increasing interconnections in the global economy. It provides both an account of the crisis of globalization and the wider resurgence of populism, as well as a detailed examination of new U.S. and UK conservative movements and how these have shaped responses to globalization that challenge neoliberal and third-way approaches.

Quantitative Easing

JONATHAN ASHWORTH

Before the financial crisis of 2008–2009, significant reductions in official interest rates typically proved sufficient to generate sustainable economic recoveries from downturns. The crisis pushed policy makers in a number of developed economies to embark on a new policy, which switched from targeting the price of money (interest rates) to the quantity of reserves it held— quantitative easing (QE).

This book offers a thorough and perspicacious analysis of QE, which has become a recovery method of last resort. While it was successful in stimulating growth, it remains controversial and continues to promote widespread debate in economics, financial, and political-economy circles, not least because it is likely to be a key tool when the next major slowdown emerges. This book is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand central banking’s role in the national economy.

Blockchain technology has the potential to disrupt digital interaction in our economy and society. However, the implications of this potential new technological paradigm have not yet been adequately explored. This book presents the key concepts of blockchain technology and an overview of the machinations of different blockchain ecosystems. It discusses the socioeconomic impact of this new technology, including its effects on sectors such as energy, data, capital markets, logistics, and gambling. Challenges of adoption and rollout are discussed with a specific focus on scalability and regulation. Nontechnical and accessible, the book seeks to demystify blockchains and their potential.

Cultural Economics analyzes the contribution to and role of the creative industries and their products and services in the overall economy. From the performance arts to television, from the internet to paintings and publishing, the creative industries can be goods or services that are both public and private, protected by copyright, consumed, created, auctioned, and susceptible to fashion and technological development. In this fascinating introduction to the field, Christiane Hellmanzik unpacks the complexity of the issues at stake and through the careful use of case studies illuminates the challenges that the creative industries present for economic analysis. Topics covered include the demand for culture, investment, the superstar theory, and the impact of globalization and the internet on markets and industrial models. CHRISTIANE HELLMANZIK

Bounded Rationality

Productivity

This short book introduces the field of bounded rationality to a beginning readership in economics. It offers a tour of the key concepts involved in the modeling of bounded rationality, the approaches that have been adopted, and some of the most revealing, at times surprising findings that have been generated. The book explores how bounded rationality has been used in economic models to shed light on real-life behavior and how doing so has led to specific policy implications that would otherwise have gone unappreciated. The exposition is nontechnical, and the focus throughout is primarily on the behavior of individuals or organizations within given situations rather than on macroeconomic concerns. Since understanding how we make economic decisions and how we depart from rational-choice theory has become fundamental to understanding the workings of the economy at all levels, this book is well suited for a wide range of economics students and courses.

The word “productivity” looms large in public-policy discussions and has become the focus of complex debate. Mike Haynes provides a detailed examination of the concept, how it is used, and why it is held by economists to be so important in evaluating the health of modern economies. He maintains that too little attention is paid to why productivity grows or fails to grow in certain contexts as well as the difficulties involved in measuring its scope. Using a range of case studies, Haynes examines how real-world variables such as social welfare, automation, and the reorganization of global and local economies interact with measurements of efficiency and output. The book concludes by discussing whether growth in productivity is sustainable or whether productivity is, in fact, no longer the motor of economic growth that it once was and no longer the most appropriate economic indicator for modern economies.

Slipping Loose

The UK’s Long Drift Away from the European Union

Post-Keynesian Theory Revisited

Money, Uncertainty, and Employment MATTEO IANNIZZOTTO

MARTIN WESTLAKE

F O R S A L E O N LY I N N O R T H A N D S O U T H A M E R I C A

The June 2016 Brexit referendum result has been portrayed as the consequence of various short-term phenomena: the financial crisis, austerity, migration, and UKIP, to name a few. Overnight, the political future of the UK took an unprecedented and unexpected turn, and since then the UK government has been charting unknown waters. Martin Westlake argues that focus on the short-term causes of the Brexit vote has overshadowed a series of longer-term trends that were leading or pushing the UK away from full membership of the European Union. He shows that the UK was an increasingly semidetached member, requiring ever more elaborate and ingenious fixes to keep its involvement in the project. Rather than a sudden, impulsive act of rejection, Brexit should be seen as having taken place over a number of years at various levels: a gradual slipping of the ties that bound the country to the European Union. MARTIN WESTLAKE

With its emphasis on real-world assumptions above theoretical neatness and the centrality of money within its theoretical framework, post-Keynesian economics offers important insights into understanding how modern-day economies work where financial services and flows dominate. In this advanced introduction, Matteo Iannizzutto showcases post-Keynesianism’s contributions to such central issues as the fundamental uncertainty in economic decisions, the theory of liquidity preference, effective demand, and nominal contracts. In each case he presents the strength of post-Keynesian ideas alongside those of mainstream economics and shows their explanatory power in the light of the financial crisis. Iannizzutto also explores the implications for policy prescriptions such as supporting the level of employment and regulation and segmentation of financial markets. MATTEO IANNIZZOTTO

Farming as Financial Asset

Market/Place

Global Finance and the Making of Institutional Landscapes

Exploring Spaces of Exchange

STEFAN OUMA

NORMA RANTISI, EDITORS

Since the global financial crisis, the world has seen a stark rise in financial investment in farming and agricultural production. Indeed, finance has been identified as one of the main causes of the so-called global land rush. The debate that this has caused in the media is frequently alarmist, and financiers are blamed for rising land prices and intensification of land commodification across the globe.

The term “market” originally referred to a public space for economic transactions, but the term has since evolved into an abstract and disputed idea. This collection of essays rediscovers the physical space that markets inhabit and explores how political, social, and economic factors determine the shape of a particular market space. The essays present new research from the fields of geography, economics, political economy, and planning and show how markets are contested, constructed, and placed. Rather than separating markets from the surrounding society and state, these essays connect markets to their wider context and showcase how economic geography can combine with other disciplines to throw new light on spaces of exchange.

In the late 1970s, at the close of the Cultural Revolution, a group of young, largely autodidact artists in China endeavored to create artwork that would depart from present norms and reflect individual ideals. It was a period of hope for the future, full of energy that permeated all levels of society. The artists came from a variety of backgrounds and had an even greater variety of artistic training and skill, but their ideas united them around a common goal. The first exhibition organized by the Stars Group (Xingxing huahui) was one of the key outdoor shows and one of the most radical unofficial exhibitions following the end of the Cultural Revolution, representing for many scholars the beginnings of a Chinese avant-garde for a post-Mao China. It was a movement toward artistic democracy—a performance even—taking place over the course of three years and bringing an engaged group, with individual ideas, into the heart of the official art establishment. These Stars would set into motion the policies and norms that later generations of contemporary Chinese artists would build upon to expand their minds and artistic vocabularies. In the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the Stars, Stars 79–80 collects the most significant writings, images, and artworks of the Stars. It captures the youthfulness and vibrancy of a new ideological movement that swept through the capital with hurricane force. LI XIANTING

is a famed independent art critic and curator of contem-

porary Chinese art in China. Today he is considered the “godfather of contemporary Chinese art.” HUANG RUI

is one of China’s most highly regarded artists and was one

of the founders of the well-known Stars Group, the first nonconformist art group in China.

Through the keen eyes and curious mind of a young girl, Ying-tzu, we are given a glimpse into the adult world of Peking in the 1920s. Exploring ideas of loss and bewilderment, Lin Hai-yin carefully captures the transition from childhood to adulthood. Shielded by a child’s innocence, we are taken on a journey of discovery as Ying-tzu grapples with the uncertainties of human relationships as well as her developing awareness of the world around her. This volume is a ChineseEnglish bilingual edition of Memories of Peking.

In the West, love occupies center stage in the modern age, whether in art, intellectual life, or economic life. In China, on its own impetus, this feature of modern life has also been securely and unambiguously established, abetted by the thriving of literature, whether in traditional or modern forms. Qiancheng Li examines the nuances of this trend in the Chinese context. The emphasis is on readings of literary texts, including important Ming- and Qing-dynasty works of drama, Buddhist texts, and other religious and philosophical works, in all their subtlety and evocative power. QIANCHENG LI

is associate professor in the Department of

Comparative Literature at Louisiana State University.

This monograph, composed by some twenty experts from both Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland, is a concise encyclopedia of Hong Kong in the Belt and Road Initiative. It provides a comprehensive introduction to the national initiative, exploring various opportunities for the territory in the “Belt and Road” as well as Hong Kong’s cooperation with relevant regions along the routes, including ASEAN, Europe, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and Arab states.

ASIMINA MICHAILIDOU, PIETER DE WILDE, AND HANS JÖRG TRENZ

This book offers a wealth of empirical data on how online media shape EU politics. The authors highlight myths and facts about the nature of online media content and show how public demands for legitimacy are at the heart of the politicization of European integration. What EU citizens most intensely debate online are fundamental questions of what European institutions stand for and how they can be held accountable. Drawing on innovative and rigorous analysis of online media ownership, journalistic content, and readers’ input, the authors piece together the convergence toward Euroskepticism across EU member states.

This book discusses the local effects of globalization, especially in the context of social work, health, and practical theology, as well as the challenges of higher education in a troubled world. The more globalized the world becomes, the more important local identities are. The global becomes effective in the local sphere. This phenomenon, called “glocalisation” since the 1990s, poses many challenges to people and to the social structures in which they operate.

Ambiguity Revisited is concerned with the manner in which pictures communicate with the spectator. Its focus lies in those fluid, indeterminate spaces where our reading of images in art and photography exercises and draws upon our imagination, memory, and experience. Ambiguity is infrequently discussed but is highly relevant as an expressive device. It holds a position at the core of communication within the visual arts. STUART FRANKLIN

In 1989, as a full member of Magnum Photos, Franklin photographed the uprising in Tiananmen Square and shot one of the Tank Man photographs, first published in Time, as well as widely documenting the uprising in Beijing, earning him a World Press Photo Award.

Banned from the Soviet Union in 1982 but allowed back in 1990, he became the first U.S. journalist to be barred from Russia since the Cold War in 2013, on the grounds that the secret police regarded his presence as “undesirable.”  The articles in this unique collection are a chronicle of Russia from the day Satter arrived in the Soviet Union until the present.

The idea of looking for novelty and new beginnings legitimized the dissolution of the USSR as well as many state- and economyrelated experiments.

In today’s Russia, Putinism is making cautious attempts to lean upon ideological legitimation associated with “traditional values” discourses. This timely book surveys key themes and tendencies in the development of conservative ideology in Russia.

He examines memories of the war and 2004 riots and the daily realities of local governance and politics in a postwar environment.

A group of international scholars offers new perspectives on the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as well as the history, development, and portrayal of the use of atomic energy in military and civilian industries, civil nuclear power, literature and film, and the contemporary world.

Christoph Bluth and Uzma Mumtaz scrutinize the atypical and seemingly paradoxical impact of nuclearization on the conflict between India and Pakistan, paying careful attention to the question of how stable this strategic relationship is.

The Child of the Sun

Royal Fairy Tales and Essays by the Queens of Romania, Elisabeth (Carmen Sylva, 1843–1916) and Marie (1875–1938) SILVIA IRINA ZIMMERMANN, EDITOR

“For anyone interested in the dark ideologies that motivate a politics that shows no signs of abating,

“Inspiring for everyone involved in German-Romanian cultural studies.”

—Richard Steigmann-Gall, Kent State University

—Maria Sass, University of Sibiu

This wide-ranging collection of essays examines the various undertakings by modern intellectuals and ideologues in the process of propaganda and political debate. Matthew Feldman calls attention to the substantial role played in post–Great War Europe and the United States by religions— both familiar monotheisms like Christianity and secular “political faiths”—over the last century of upheaval and revolutionary change. With thought-provoking discussion of the interplay between belief and modern politics as understood by familiar intellectual voices, this volume will be of interest to scholars and general readers alike.

The first two queen consorts of Romania, Elisabeth (Carmen Sylva) and Marie, became famous as writers during their lifetime. They both wrote in their mother tongues, Elisabeth in German and Marie in English, and published many of their books not only in Romania but also abroad, reaching a widespread readership, worldwide publicity, and literary recognition. This critically edited volume comprises the most notable tales and essays by the queen consorts, either translated into English (Carmen Sylva) or in the original English version (Marie).

Faith

In the 1930s, a young Samuel Beckett confessed to a friend that he had been living his life according to an “abject self-referring quietism.” Andy Wimbush argues that quietism—a philosophical and religious attitude of renunciation and willlessness—is a key to understanding Beckett’s artistic vision. Using Beckett’s published and archival material, he shows how Beckett distilled an understanding of quietism and turned it into an aesthetic that would liberate him from the powerful literary traditions of nineteenth-century realism and early twentieth-century high modernism.

High Treason and Low Comedy is the first in-depth treatment in English of E. E. Kisch’s work as a playwright during the years 1920–1925. The translations of his two most successful works for the cabaret stages of Germany, Austria, and Czechoslovakia form the basis of biographical, historical, and cultural analysis. The plays are a portal into the world of Kisch’s youth as an enterprising journalist and into his thinking and writing just before he became “the raging reporter” and the star of international reportage.

Blood and Black Lace

Studying Shaun of the Dead

Mario Bava’s Blood and Black Lace (1964) is a legendary title, commonly considered the archetypal giallo. It set the rules for the genre: a masked, black-gloved killer, an emphasis on graphic violence, elaborate and suspenseful murder sequences. But Blood and Black Lace is first and foremost an exquisitely stylish film, full of gorgeous color schemes, elegant camerawork, and surrealistic imagery. This book examines its main narrative and stylistic aspects, including the groundbreaking prominence of violence and sadism and its use of color and lighting, as well as Bava’s irreverent approach to genre filmmaking and clever handling of the audience’s expectations by way of irony and pitch-black humor. The book also considers Blood and Black Lace’s place within Bava’s oeuvre, its historical impact on the giallo genre, and its influential status on future filmmakers.

Shaun of the Dead (2004) was a breakthrough film for director Edgar Wright and star and cowriter Simon Pegg, who entranced audiences with their combination of high-energy originality and magpie-like referencing of pop culture. Studying Shaun of the Dead looks at Wright’s cinematic style, covering overarching aspects of the film and core areas of film studies. It includes in-depth study of representation, looking at age and gender and the the relationships among characters, narrative structure and devices, and ideological aspects. There is in-depth analysis of the genres that Wright blends, highlighting conventions as well as drawing contrasts with the films that inspired this romance-zombie-comedy. The book analyzes production, distribution, and marketing; the varying interpretations of the film; and reasons that might lie behind its success with audiences.

Pina Bausch and Dance Theater offers new and groundbreaking perspectives on the work of the Tanztheater Wuppertal. The development and performance of its oeuvre, the passing on of choreographic material, and reactions by the public are presented as complex, interdependent, and reciprocal processes of translation. This book focuses on the artistic research involved in the company’s international coproductions and features extensive empirical material in the form of interviews with dancers, collaborators, and spectators, as well as ethnographic insights. This book introduces a praxeology of cultural and aesthetic translation as a viable key concept for research into dance and art. GABRIELE KLEIN

The essays, poetry, and visual art collected here consider the more-than-human cultures of our multispecies world. At a time when humanity’s impact has put our planet’s ecosystems into great jeopardy, the book explores literary, sonic, and visual imaginaries that feature encounters between and across a variety of living creatures: beetles and bisons, people and pigeons, trees and spiderwebs, vegetables and violets, orchards and octopuses, vampires and tricksters. Offering a wide range of critical and creative contributions, the volume seeks to foster new ways of imagining coexistence. BIRGIT SPENGLER

Right-Wing Populism and Gender

European Perspectives and Beyond GABRIELE DIETZE AND JULIA ROTH,

Are We Comparing Yet? On Standards, Justice, and Incomparability HAUN SAUSSY

While the field of research in right-wing populism has recently been blossoming and is expanding, a systematic look into the interface of right-wing populism and gender is still missing, even though gender issues are omnipresent in discourses of the radical right, ranging from “ethnosexism” against immigrants to “anti-genderism.” This volume seeks to strengthen the analysis of the intersection of gender and race as constitutional for radical right discourse. The contributions investigate the ways in which gender is used as an arena and as an epistemological platform for the ordering and hierarchization of political objectives.

Debates about the possibility of an open culture—or indeed about the possibility of an open debate about the openness of culture—often turn on questions of standards. But since no benchmark can be absolute, judgment is a proliferation of comparisons. Through a series of case studies in everyday and academic comparison (literature, history, politics, philosophy), Haun Saussy calls out the typical vices of comparison and proposes ways to unseat them. For however much it is abused, distorted, and manipulated, comparison retains an essential link to the idea of justice.

This annual report is a call to action to embrace the notion that we as humans can change how we make money, govern societies, and interact with one another online. It invites participation in setting an agenda for how we can work together to create an internet that truly puts people first. This book is neither a country-level index nor a doomsday clock. Its intention is to show that while the worldwide consequences of getting things wrong with the internet could be huge—for peace and security, for political and individual freedoms, for human equality—the problems are never so great that nothing can be done. Established in 2003, the not-for-profit MOZILLA FOUNDATION

has invested in visionary ideas, leaders across the

globe, and citizen-centered campaigns to ensure the internet remains a global public resource that is healthy, open, and accessible to all.

Architectonics of Game Spaces

The Spatial Logic of the Virtual and Its Meaning for the Real ANDRI GERBER AND ULRICH GÖTZ, EDITORS

What consequences does the design of the virtual yield for architecture, and to what extent can the nature of architecture be used productively to turn game worlds into sustainable places—over here in “reality”? This pioneering collection gives an overview of contemporary developments in designing video games and of the relationships such practices have established with the design of architecture. Because of their often simulatory nature, games reveal constructions of reality while positively affecting spatial ability and allowing for alternative avenues to complex topics and processes of negotiation. Granting insight into the merging of the design of real and virtual environments, this volume offers an invaluable platform for further debate. ANDRI GERBER

In recent years, spectacular images of ruined boats, makeshift border camps, and beaches littered with life vests have done much to consolidate the politics of migration in Europe. The mediation of migration as a crisis, in turn, has done much to shore up certain kinds of humanitarian response, legislative action, and affective investment. Bridging artistic practice and academic inquiry, the essays and artworks gathered in Moving Images ask how images, discourses, and data are involved in shaping visions of migration in increasingly global contexts.

Where do computer games “happen”? The articles collected in this pioneering volume explore the categories of “space,” “place,” and “territory” to lay the groundwork for the study of spatiality in games. Shifting the focus away from earlier debates such as the narrative nature of games, this collection proposes instead that thorough attention be given to the tension between experienced spaces and narrated places as well as to the mapping of both of these.

Northern landscapes are both real places and representations—notions that are bound to collide in landscape photography. In this book, photographers, academics, curators, and archivists from Germany, Finland, Scandinavia, the United States, and the UK address urgent questions about environmental degradation, globalization, consumerism, and the role of new technologies of representation in relation to landscape. Wide-ranging case studies examine the interpretation, experience, and appropriation of landscape in northern Europe, Canada, northern England, Scotland, and the Nordic countries. DARCY WHITE

Border Wall Aesthetics

Artworks in Border Spaces ELISA GANIVET

Thirty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, we live in a time of globalization and free trade. Nevertheless, seventy new border walls have been built in this period. While governments offer manifold justifications for building these separation barriers, they invariably attract the attention of artists. Is it merely the lure of transgression, however, that attracts them—or is there a deeper significance in the artistic encounter with border walls? And which artistic strategies do these artists employ to approach them? Elisa Ganivet revisits the history of border wall aesthetics and compares more recent border-related works by artists including Joseph Beuys, Banksy, and Frida Kahlo. ELISA GANIVET

is an art historian who has organized exhi-

bitions of modern and contemporary artists. Her research in aesthetics explores the mechanisms of utopian practices and border concepts.

Recent advances have led to a renaissance of dystopian and utopian speculations on the future of artificial intelligence. Algorithmic technologies are deployed for identifying potential terrorists through vast surveillance networks, producing sentencing guidelines and recidivism risk profiles in criminal justice systems, demographic and psychographic targeting for advertising or propaganda, and more generally for automating the analysis of language, text, and images. Against this background, the aim of this book is to discuss the heterogenous conditions, implications, and effects of modern AI and internet technologies in terms of their political dimension: What does it mean to critically investigate efforts of net politics in the age of machine-learning algorithms?

How does being a parent in the field influence a researcher’s positionality and the production of ethnographic knowledge? Based on regionally and thematically diverse cases, this collection explores methodological, theoretical, and ethical dimensions of accompanied fieldwork. The authors show how the presence of children, partners, or other family members affects immersion in the field and the construction of its boundaries, and they detail differences among female and male authors from various career stages.

The contributions to this anthology take debates about the financial crisis, recent austerity measures, and the Brexit referendum a step further by showing how a common denominator of these dynamics is underlying ideas of “the economy.” Each author identifies a facet of Britain’s imagined economies, connecting seemingly separate fields such as finance and fiction in order to better understand current political changes and offering an urgently needed interdisciplinary view on the performative power of economic thought.

Practices of Speculation

Modeling, Embodiment, Figuration JEANNE CORTIEL, CHRISTINE HANKE, JAN SIMON HUTTA, AND COLIN MILBURN, EDITORS

This volume offers innovative ways to think about speculation at a time when anticipation of catastrophe in an apocalyptic mode shapes public discourse on a global scale. It maps an interdisciplinary field of investigation, interrogating hegemonic ways of shaping the present through investments in the future while also looking at speculative practices that reveal transformative potential. The twelve contributions explore concrete instances of envisioning affirmative speculative potentials in history, literature, comics, computer games, mold research, ecosystem science, and artistic practice.

Realms of Royalty

New Directions in Researching Contemporary European Monarchies

Taking Sides

Theories, Practices, and Cultures of Participation in Dissent ELKE BIPPUS, ANNE GANZERT, AND

IMKE POLLAND, EDITORS

ISABELL OTTO, EDITORS

Monarchies are constantly adapting to the challenges of contemporary society—consequently, research on monarchies has to adapt as well. This collection introduces new directions in researching contemporary European monarchies by suggesting theoretical approaches to recent developments (e.g., pop concerts during royal celebrations) and new perspectives on royal families’ interactions with their subjects (e.g., during royal tours). With its interdisciplinary analyses, the book is a timely answer to the renewed academic and popular interest in monarchies.

Is there an option to oppose without automatically participating in the opposed? This volume explores different perspectives on dissent, understanding practices, cultures, and theories of resistance, dispute, and opposition as inherently participative. It discusses aspects of the body as a political instance, the identity and subjectivity building of individuals and groups, (micro-) practices of dissent, and theories of critique from different disciplinary perspectives. This collection touches upon contemporary issues, recent protests and movements, artistic subversion and dissent, and online activism as well as historic developments and theories of dissent.

Many of the most prolific and influential conspiracy theories originated in Eastern Europe. The efficacy of conspiracy narratives can be observed in recent developments in Poland or with regard to the wars waged in eastern Ukraine and the former Yugoslavia. This volume analyzes the history behind this widespread phenomenon as well as its relationship with representations of the present in Eastern European cultures and literatures. PETER DEUTSCHMANN

During the uprisings of the Arab Spring, oppositional movements used political humor to criticize political leaders or to expose the absurdities of sociopolitical conditions. Humor was expressed in various art forms such as poetry, stand-up comedy, street art, music, caricatures, cartoons, comics, and puppet shows and was further distributed in social media. This comprehensive study of political humor in the uprisings explores the varieties and functions of humor as a creative tool for resistance. SABINE DAMIR-GEILSDORF

SUGIERA, EDITORS

This book explores the potential of the internet for enabling new and flexible political participation modes. With an ethnographic focus on Icelandic and German online participation tools Betri Reykjavík and LiquidFriesland, the book offers plentiful advice for citizens, programmers, politicians, and administrations alike on how to get the most out of online participation formats.

This volume is a response to the growing need for new methodological approaches to the rapidly changing landscape of new forms of performative practices. The authors address a host of contemporary phenomena situated at the crossroads of science and fiction that employ various media and merge live participation with mediated hybrid experiences at both affective and cognitive levels.

Reinventing Corporeality DENISA BUTNARU, EDITOR

Developments in the fields of medicine, new media, and biotechnologies have led to questioning the understanding of our corporeal limits. Using examples from literary fiction, media studies, philosophy, performance arts, and social sciences, this collection underlines how bodily models and transformations thought until recently to be only fictional products have become a part of our reality. The essays provide a spectrum of perspectives on how the body emerges as a transitional environment between fictional and factual elements.

Objects like straitjackets, cribs, and binding belts are often used as metonyms for psychiatry and the way psychiatric patients are treated, but very little is known about the agency of these objects and their appropriation by staff and patients. By focusing on material cultures, this book offers a new perspective on the history of psychiatry as a complex entanglement where power is permanently negotiated. MONIKA ANKELE

Social Life in Johannesburg and Maputo Through Ethnographic Comparison

The Poetics and Ethics of Anglophone Arab Representations

Queer Resilience in Twentieth- and TwentyFirst- Century English Literature and Culture

BARBARA HEER

MARKUS SCHMITZ

SUSANNE JUNG

How do people live together in cities shaped by inequality? This comparative ethnography of two African cities, Maputo and Johannesburg, presents a new narrative about social life in cities often described as sharply divided. It includes case studies of entangled lives unfolding in a township and a suburb in Johannesburg and in a barrio and an elite neighborhood in Maputo.

This book explores Anglophone Arab representations ranging from earlytwentieth-century Mahjar writings to contemporary transnational Palestinian resistance art. A comparative study of dissonant truth making, it presents critical readings in which the notion of cross-cultural translation gets displaced and strategic unreliability becomes an essential quality. Questioning conventional interpretive approaches, it shows what Anglophone Arab studies are and what they can become from a radically decentered relational point of view.

LGBTQ people have strategies of resilience to help them deal with the challenge that heteronormativity as a power structure poses to their affective lives. This book makes the concept of resilience available to queer literary and cultural studies, analyzing these strategies in terms of narration, performance, bodies, and space. Authors and artists discussed include Katherine Mansfield, Christopher Isherwood, Sylvia Townsend Warner, Jeanette Winterson, Michael Cunningham, and Ian McKellen.

Narcissistic mothers are an important motif in modernist literature. Tracing its appearance in the works of writers such as D. H.

Post-Apartheid Criticism

Perceptions of Whiteness, Homosexuality, and Democracy in South Africa IVES S. LOUKSON

South Africa’s postapartheid narrative is one of democracy and equality—but its flaws run deep, argues Ives S. Loukson. Disclosing prejudices about whiteness, homosexuality, and democracy, he offers a demonstration of literary criticism practiced as a fecund interdisciplinary activity and lays the foundation for post-apartheid criticism that differs from postcolonial criticism.

Subjects of Substance traces the ways in which materialist conceptions of selfhood inspire and shape recent U.S. literature. While disciplines like neuroscience and evolutionary biology transform the human self from an immaterial essence into a material construct, writers likewise consider materialist models of mind.

The ability to theorize about political conditions remains largely an elite, technocratic, and esoteric enterprise. In this timely intervention, Dean Caivano and Sarah Naumes argue that storytelling in the form of narrative and autoethnography creates an emancipatory potential through its ability to theorize from below, welcoming marginalized and excluded voices. This volume offers a new assessment of political texts through the lens of the sublime as a fertile terrain to challenge who can write and disseminate political ideas—and how.

How is musical practice connected with everyday life? Eva-Maria Houben shows that performing music as an activity—indeed, as playing— can be understood as open and never finished. Such an emphasis on repetition offers freedom from perfection, productivity, and purpose, thus allowing meaning to unfold in specific situations, places, and relationships. EVA-MARIA HOUBEN
