TIMOTHY L. FIELDS AND SHEREEM HERNDON-BROWN Finding the right college is a challenge for all students. But Black families face additional challenges and questions while navigating the admissions process. In The Black Family’s Guide to College Admissions, veteran admissions experts Timothy L. Fields and Shereem Herndon-Brown share provocative insights and demystify this complex process to answer important questions, from where to apply to how to get in. Fields and Herndon-Brown discuss specific concerns for Black families that are not often addressed by school counselors or other resources. They highlight how the current social justice movement amplifies the distinct dynamics that exist between Historically Black Colleges and Universities and predominantly white institu tions and which college choices may be best for Black students.
The Black Family’s Guide to College Admissions is the definitive resource to begin the complex conversation about the choices that Black families face as they go through the college admissions process at the intersection of education, parenting, and race. “A unique, refreshing, and much needed resource from two admissions insiders.” —Rick Clark, Assistant Vice Provost/Executive Director of Undergraduate Admission, Georgia Institute of Technology, coauthor of The Truth about College Admission TIMOTHY L.

But this is only the latest example in a long history of ideas that include the satanic panics of the 1980s, the New World Order and Vatican conspiracy theories, fears about fluoridated water, speculations about President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, and the notions that the Sandy Hook massacre was a false flag operation and 9/11 was an inside job.

In Conspiracy, Michael Shermer presents an overarching review of conspiracy theories—who believes them and why, which ones are real, and what we should do about them. Trust in conspiracy theories, he writes, cuts across gender, age, race, income, educa tion level, occupational status—and even political affiliation. One reason that people believe these conspiracies, Shermer argues, is that enough of them are real that we should be constructively conspiratorial: elections have been rigged (LBJ’s 1948 Senate race); medical professionals have intentionally harmed patients in their, care (Tuskegee); your government does lie to you (Watergate, Iran–Contra, and Afghanistan); and, tragically, some adults do conspire to sexually abuse children. But Shermer reveals that other factors are also in play: anxiety and a sense of loss of control play a role in conspiratorial cognition patterns, as do certain personality traits. This engaging book will be an important read for anyone concerned about the future direction of American politics.

ROCK & ROLL IN KENNEDY’S AMERICA
A Cultural History of the Early 1960s
RICHARD AQUILA
From the former host of NPR’s Rock & Roll America, Richard Aquila’s Rock & Roll in Kennedy’s America offers an in-depth look at early 1960s rock & roll, as well as an unconventional history of Kennedy’s America through the lens of popular music. Based on extensive research and exclusive interviews with Dion, Bo Diddley, Brenda Lee, Martha Reeves, Pete Seeger, Bob Gaudio, Dick Clark, and other legendary figures, the book rejects the myth that Buddy Holly’s death in 1959 was “the day the music died.” It proves that rock & roll during the early 1960s was vibrant and in tune with the history and events of this colorful era. These interviews and Aqui la’s research reveal unique insights and new details about politics, gender, race, ethnicity, youth culture, and everyday life. Rock & Roll in Kennedy’s America recalls an important chapter in rock & roll and American history. “Well-written and a pleasure to read. Rock & Roll in Kennedy’s America helps define the contours of rock and roll music, which were ever-changing and influenced significantly by artists in rhythm and blues, soul, country music, mainstream pop, and many other genres. Aquila captures the variety and vitality of the music and provides excellent vignettes about the personalities and activities of the era. The oral histories he conducted with many figures from the era are especially vivid and welcome.”
In the early 1960s, the nation was on track to fulfill its destiny in what was being called “the American Century.” Baby boomers and rock & roll shared the country’s optimism and energy. For “one brief, shining moment” in the early 1960s, both President John F. Kennedy and young people across the country were riding high. The dream of a New Frontier would soon give way, however, to a new reality involving assassinations, the Vietnam War, Cold War crises, the civil rights movement, a new feminist movement, and various culture wars.

MAURIZIO VALSANIA George Washington—hero of the French and Indian War, com mander-in-chief of the Continental Army, and first president of the United States—died on December 14, 1799. The myth-making began immediately thereafter, and the Washington mythos crafted after his death remains largely intact. But what do we really know about Washington as an upper-class man?
“Using his unique perspective and skillset, Maurizio Valsania has cracked the marble shell that encases George Washington to reveal the real man—flesh and blood, passion and emotion, mind and body.” —Douglas Bradburn, President/CEO, George Washington’s Mount Vernon, coeditor of Early Modern Virginia: Reconsidering the Old Dominion MAURIZIO VALSANIA (CHAPEL HILL, NC) is a professor of American history at the University of Turin. He is the author of Jefferson’s Body: A Corporeal Biography. £23.50 available as an e-book Dispelling common myths about the first US president and revealing the real George Washington.
FIRST AMONG MEN
Washington is frequently portrayed by his biographers as America at its unflinching best: tall, shrewd, determined, resilient, stalwart, and tremendously effective in action. But this aggressive and muscular version of Washington is largely a creation of the nineteenth century. In First Among Men: George Washington and the Myth of American Masculinity, Maurizio Valsania considers Washington’s complexity and apparent contradictions in three main areas: his physical life (often bloody, cold, injured, muddy, or otherwise unpleasant), his emotional world (sentimental, loving, and affectionate), and his social persona (carefully constructed and maintained). In each, he notes, the reality diverges from the legend quite drastically. Ultimately, Valsania challenges readers to reconsider what they think they know about Washington. Aided by new research, documents, and objects that have only re cently come to light, First Among Men tells the fascinating story of a living and breathing person who loved, suffered, moved, gestured, dressed, ate, drank, and had sex in ways that may be surprising to many Americans. In this accessible, detailed narrative, Valsania presents a full, complete portrait of Washington as readers have rarely seen him before: as a man, a son, a father, and a friend.

LAWRENCE T. BROWN (BALTIMORE, MD) is an equity scientist, urban Afrofuturist, and the director of the Black Butterfly Academy, a racial equity education and consulting firm. In June 2018, he was honored by Open Society Institute–Baltimore with the Bold Thinker award for sparking critical discourse regarding Baltimore’s racial segregation. He is currently a research scientist in the new Center for Urban Health Equity at Morgan State University, where he is leading the Black Butterfly Rising Initiative. 6⅛ $19.95 £15.00
hc Also available as an e-book Hardcover edition published in 2021 978-1-4214-3987-7
Drawing on social science research, policy analysis, and archival materials, Brown reveals the long history of racial segregation’s impact on health, from toxic pollution to police brutality. Beginning with an analysis of the current political moment, Brown delves into how Baltimore’s history influenced actions in sister cities such as St. Louis and Cleveland, as well as Baltimore’s adoption of increasingly oppressive techniques from cities such as Chicago.
Throughout the book, Brown offers a clear five-step plan for activists, nonprofits, and public officials to achieve racial equity.
Persuasively arguing that, since urban apartheid was intentionally erected, it can be intentionally dismantled, The Black Butterfly demonstrates that America cannot reflect that Black lives matter until we see how Black neighborhoods matter.

The Harmful Politics of Race and Space in America
In The Black Butterfly—a reference to the fact that Baltimore’s majority-Black population spreads out like a butterfly’s wings on both sides of the coveted strip of real estate running down the center of the city—Lawrence T. Brown reveals that ongoing historical trauma caused by a combination of policies, practices, systems, and budgets is at the root of uprisings and crises in hypersegregated cities around the country.
The best-selling look at how American cities can promote racial equity, end redlining, and reverse the damaging health- and wealth-related effects of segregation.

ANDREW M. WEHRMAN
JOHN HOPKINS UNIVERSITY PRESS | press.jhu.edu 7
The Revolutionary War broke out during a smallpox epidemic, and in response, General George Washington ordered the inoculation of the Continental Army. But Washington did not have to convince fearful colonists to protect themselves against smallpox— they were the ones demanding it. In The Contagion of Liberty, Andrew M. Wehrman describes a revolution within a revolution, where the violent insistence for freedom from disease ultimately helped American colonists achieve independence from Great Inoculation,Britain. a shocking procedure introduced to America by an enslaved African, became the most sought-after medical procedure of the eighteenth century. The difficulty lay in providing it to all Americans and not just the fortunate few. Across the colonies, poor Americans rioted for equal access to medicine, while cities and towns shut down for quarantines. In Marblehead, Massachusetts, sailors burned down an expensive private hospital just weeks after the Boston Tea Party.
This thought-provoking history offers a new dimension to our understanding of both the American Revolution and the origins of public health in the United States.

On the Frontier of Medical Innovation RAJU PRASAD In Building Breakthroughs, Raju Prasad tells the story of import ant advancements in biotechnology and medical innovation from gene therapies to mRNA vaccines, providing historical context and examining cutting-edge research. Based on in-depth interviews with both the scientists who developed these discoveries and the patients who have benefited from them, Building Breakthroughs reveals the key players behind drug development and the inner workings of this essential business. Through stories of patients and their families, and of the researchers creating new treatments, Prasad reveals how cell therapies are advancing to treat childhood leukemia and a form of lymphoma, how a gene therapy was established to treat the rare disease spinal muscular atrophy type I, and how potentially curative therapies that are being developed for sickle cell disease. By examining the clinical trial and regulatory paths each therapy took to reach approval, Prasad uncovers the building blocks of biotechnology innovation and the investments that must be made to catalyze the development of future breakthroughs. He also explores issues of scientific communication and misinformation, providing recommendations for improvements in the future.

Racism in the US health care system has been deliberately under mining Black health care professionals and exacerbating health disparities among Black Americans for centuries. These health disparities only became a mainstream issue on the agenda of US health leaders and policymakers because a group of health profes sions schools at Historically Black Colleges and Universities banded together to fight for health equity. We’ll Fight It Out Here tells the story of how the Association of Minority Health Professions Schools (AMHPS) was founded by this coalition and the hardwon influence it built in American politics and health care. David Chanoff and Louis W. Sullivan, former secretary of health and human services, detail how the struggle for equity has been fought in the field of health care, where bias and disparities continue to be volatile national issues. Chanoff and Sullivan outline the history of Black health care, from pre-Emancipation to today, centering on the work of AMHPS, which brought to light health care inequities in 1983 and precip itated virtually all minority health care legislation since then. The work of this coalition of Black health schools continues, both in supporting the training of more doctors and health professionals from minority backgrounds and in advancing issues related to health equity.

In this book, Allen Pietrobon presents the first true biography of Norman Cousins. Cousins was much more important than we re alize: he was involved in several secret citizen diplomacy missions during the height of the Cold War and, acting as a private citizen, played a major role in getting the Limited Test Ban Treaty signed. He also wrote JFK’s famous 1963 American University commence ment speech (“not merely peace in our time but peace for all Thistime”).book is a fascinating look at the outsized impact that one individual had on the course of American public debate, interna tional humanitarianism, and the Cold War itself. This biography of the vocal anti-communist and anti-nuclear activist’s public life will interest readers across the ideological spectrum. “Pietrobon shines light on the extraordinary life of Norman Cousins, an activist, journalist, philosopher, and private citizen who, over the course of nearly five decades, conducted quiet ‘citizen’ diplomacy when political elites were unable or unwilling to engage on difficult issues.”

A short but engaging exploration of our changing perception of creativity. Reflections In Reflections, a series copublished with Denmark’s Aarhus University Press, scholars deliver 60-page reflections on a key concept that encapsulates their years of study and research. These books present unique insights on a wide range of topics and concepts—everything from love, trust, and play, to corruption, welfare, and sleep—that entertain and enlighten readers with exciting discoveries and new perspectives.
CHRISTIAN BJØRNSKOV Why is Denmark consistently ranked one of the happiest nations? In Happiness, researcher Christian Bjørnskov explores what we mean when we talk about happiness. By evaluating studies and theories on happiness that test how family, genetics, religion, wealth, work, and trust factor into our happiness as well as how often we smile or compare ourselves to others, Bjørnskov outlines why our most important source of happiness may be the people around us.

Pathways to Reckoning and Renewal REBECCA POPE-RUARK, PhD Faculty often talk about how busy, overwhelmed, and stressed they are. These qualities are seen as badges of honor in a capitalist culture that values productivity above all else. But for many women in higher education, exhaustion and stress go far deeper than end-of-the-semester malaise. Burnout, a mental health syndrome caused by chronic workplace stress, is endemic to higher education in a patriarchal, productivity-obsessed culture. In this unique book for women in higher education, Rebecca Pope-Ruark, PhD, draws from her own burnout experience, as well as collected stories of faculty in various roles and career stages, interviews with coaches and educational devel opers, and extensive secondary research to address and mitigate burnout. Pope-Ruark lays out four pillars of burnout resilience for faculty members: purpose, compassion, connection, and balance. Each chapter contains relatable stories, reflective opportunities and exercises, and advice from women in higher education. Blending memoir, key research, and reflection opportunities, Pope-Ruark helps faculty not only address burnout personally but also use the tools in this book to eradicate the systemic conditions that cause it in the first place. As burnout becomes more visible, we can destigmatize it by acknowledging that women are not unrav eling; instead, women in higher education are reckoning with the productivity cult embedded in our institutions, recognizing how it shapes their understanding and approach to faculty work, and learning how they can remedy it for themselves, their peers, and women faculty in the future.

In this book, the first of its kind, 15 LGBTQ presidents and chancellors in higher education provide insight into their experiences and highlight the importance of queer leadership for the academy and the world.
Over the past several decades, higher education in the United States has been shaped by marketization and privatization. Efforts to critique these developments often rely on a contrast between a bleak present and a romanticized past. In Unsettling the University, Sharon Stein offers a different entry point—one informed by decolonial theories and practices—for addressing these issues by describing the colonial violence underlying three of the most celebrated moments in US higher education history: the founding of the original colonial colleges, the creation of land-grant colleges and universities, and the post–World War II “Golden Age.”

MICHAEL T. BENSON In Daniel Coit Gilman and the Birth of the American Research University, Michael T. Benson argues that Daniel Coit Gilman’s enduring legacy will always be as the father of the modern research university—a uniquely American invention that remains the envy of the entire world. In the past half-century, nothing has been written about Gilman that takes into account his detailed journals, reviews his prodigious correspondence, or considers his broad external board service. This book fills an enormous void in the history of the birth of the “new” American system of higher education, especially as it relates to graduate education. The late 1800s, Benson points out, is one of the most pivotal periods in the de velopment of the American university model; this book reveals that there is no more important figure in shaping that model than Daniel Coit Gilman.

Connecting Climate, Economics, and Social Justice
ERIC A. DAVIDSON Since it was first proposed in the US House of Representatives, the Green New Deal has been hotly debated, often using partisan characterizations that critique it as extreme or socialist. In Science for a Green New Deal, Eric Davidson dissects this legislative resolution. He also shows how green new deal thinking offers a framework for a much-needed con vergence to develop holistic policy solutions to the most pressing issues of our day. Finally, Davidson makes the case for linkages among multiple global crises, including a pandemic and a renewed, chilling awareness of profound social injustices highlighted by the Black Lives Matter movement.

BY APOSTOLOS N. ATHANASSAKIS Next to the works of Homer, Hesiod’s poems are foundational texts for students of the classics. His two major surviving works, the Theogony and the Works and Days, address the divine and the mundane, Introducingrespectively.hiscelebrated
translations of Hesiod, Apostolos N. Athanassakis positions the philosopher-poet as heir to a long tra dition of Hellenic poetry. Hesiod’s poems demonstrate the author’s passionate interest in the governance of human society through justice and a tangible work ethic. As a physicist and a materialist, Hesiod avoided such subjects as honor and the afterlife. His works contain the oldest fundamentals on law and Greek economy, mak ing Hesiod the first great thinker of Western civilization. Athanas sakis’s contextual notes offer both comparison to Biblical and Norse mythologies as well as anthropological connections to modern Greece.

When Amish Mafia was released in 2012, viewers were fascinated by the stories of this secret group of Amish and Mennonite enforcers who used threats, extortion, and violence to keep members of the Amish community in line. While some of the stories were based loosely on actual events, the group itself was a complete fabrication.
STEPHANIE DEGOOYER Before borders determined who belonged in a country and who did not, lawyers and judges devised a legal fiction called naturalization to bypass the idea of feudal allegiance and integrate new subjects into their nations. At the same time, writers of prose fiction were attempting to undo centuries of rules about who could—and who could not—be a subject of literature. In Before Borders, Stephanie DeGooyer reconstructs how prose and legal fictions came together in the eighteenth century to dramatically reimagine national belong ing through naturalization. The bureaucratic procedure of naturalization today was once a radically fictional way to create new citizens and literary subjects. Through early modern court proceedings, the philosophy of John Locke, and the novels of Daniel Defoe, Laurence Sterne, Maria Edgeworth, and Mary Shelley, DeGooyer follows how naturalization evolved in England against the backdrop of imperial expansion.

Joshua Logan Wall’s Situating Poetry studies five poets of the New York literary scene rarely considered together: James Weldon Johnson, Charles Reznikoff, Lola Ridge, Louis Zukofsky, and Robert Hayden. Charting their works and careers, Wall illustrates how these politically marginalized writers wrestled with their status as American outsiders. These poets produced a secularized version of America in which poetry, rather than God, governed individual obligations to one another across multiethnic barriers.

In this definitive rebuttal to the idea that the American MFA program is the hallmark of writing practice, Kimberly Quiogue Andrews lays out a foundational theory of the intercon nectedness of literary criticism with the work of poets. A provocative and luminous study, The Academic Avant-Garde makes the case for the radical poetic possibilities of the work of literary scholarship. In her examination of the cross-pollination between the analytic humanities and the craft of poetry writing, Andrews tells a bold story about some of today’s most innovative literary works.

Natural Health in a Pharmaceutical Culture
COLLEEN DERKATCH Public interest in wellness is driven by two opposing philosophies of health that cycle into and amplify each other: restoration, where people use natural health products to restore themselves to prior states of wellness; and enhancement, where people strive for maximum wellness by optimizing their body’s systems and functions. Derkatch tracks the tension between these two ideas of wellness across a variety of sources, including interviews, popular and social media, advertising, and online activism. Derkatch offers a nuanced account of how language, belief, behavior, experience, and persuasion collide to produce and promote wellness, one of the most compelling—and harmful—concepts that govern contemporary Western life.

LAWRENCE P. JACKSON In Hold It Real Still, Lawrence Jackson examines Clint Eastwood’s influence on the western film while also exploring how that genre continues to operate into the twenty-first century as an ideological channel for ideas about race and imperialism. The western genre pivoted from an initial doctrine of racial liberalism, albeit a clumsy one, during the John Wayne years to an agenda of substitution, exclusion, and false equivalency during the Clint Eastwood period. Jackson situates Eastwood’s work as a response to massive social and political upheavals in America: defeat in Vietnam, riots in northern cities, the civil rights movement and associated legislation, and the Great Migration. Tackling the rise of neoracism and the domestic apparatus of surveillance, control, and erasure, Hold It Real Still offers an astonishing revision of a uniquely American genre of film.
JORDAN E. TAYLOR “Fake news” is not new. Just like millions of Americans today, the revolutionaries of the eighteenth century worried that they were entering a “post-truth” era. Their fears, however, were not fixated on social media or clickbait but rather on peoples’ increasing reliance on reading news gathered from foreign newspapers. In Misinformation Nation, Jordan E. Taylor reveals how foreign news defined the boundaries of American politics and ultimately drove colonists to revolt against Britain and create a new nation.

BROWNING
ELLIOTT DRAGO As the most southern of northern cities in a state that bordered three slave states, antebellum Philadelphia maintained a long tradition of both abolitionism and fugitive slave activity. Although Philadelphia’s Black community lived in a free city in a free state, they faced constant threats to their personal safety and freedom. Enslavers, kidnappers, and slave catchers prowled the streets of Philadelphia in search of potential victims, violent anti-Black riots erupted in the city, and white politicians legislated to undermine Black freedom. In Street Diplomacy, Elliott Drago illustrates how the political and physical conflicts that arose over fugitive slave removals and the kidnappings of free Black people forced Philadelphians to confront the politics of slavery.
Environmental Thought and Labor Radicalism in Chicago, 1886–1937ELIZABETHGRENNAN
In Nature’s Laboratory, Elizabeth Grennan Browning argues that Chicago offers the clearest lens for analyzing the history of the intellectual divide between countryside and city in the United States at the end of the nineteenth century. By examining both the material and intellectual underpinnings of Gilded Age and Progressive Era environmental theories, Browning shows how Chicago served as an urban laboratory where public intellec tuals and industrial workers experimented with various strains of environmental thinking to resolve conflicts between capital and labor, between citizens and their governments, and between immigrants and long-term residents.
The untold history of how Chicago served as an important site of innovation in environmental thought as America transitioned to modern, industrial capitalism.

Imagining the Global Environment in Early Modern Europe
LYDIA BARNETT Many centuries before the emergence of the scientific consensus on climate change, people began to imagine the existence of a global environment: a natural system capable of changing humans and of being changed by them. In After the Flood, Lydia Barnett traces the history of this idea back to the early modern period, when the Scientific Revolution, the Reformations, the Little Ice Age, and the overseas expansion of European empire, religion, and commerce gave rise to new ideas about nature, humanity, and their intersecting histories. Recovering a forgotten episode in the history of environmental thought, Barnett brings to light the crucial role of religious faith and conflict in the emergence of a global envi ronmental consciousness. Barnett reveals how early modern earth and environmental sciences were shaped by gender, evangelism, empire, race, and nation.
JOHNATHAN O’NEILL (STATESBORO, GA) is a professor of history at Georgia Southern University. He is the author of Originalism in American Law and Politics: A Constitutional History.
O’Neill identifies four fundamental transformations engendered by the New Deal: the rise of the administrative state, the erosion of federalism, the ascendance of the modern presidency, and the development of modern judicial review. Various schools of conservative thought (traditionalists, neoconservatives, libertarians, Straussians) responded to these major changes.

BRENDA HILLMAN WESLEYAN POETRY SERIES
An iconoclastic ecopoet who has led the way for many young and emerging artists, Brenda Hillman continues to re-cast innovative poetic forms as instruments for tracking human and non-human experiences. At times the poet deploys short dialogues, medita tions or trance techniques as means of rendering inner states; other times she uses narrative, documentary or scientific materials to record daily events during a time of pandemic, planetary crisis, political and racial turmoil. Hillman proposes that poetry offers courage even in times of existential peril; her work represents what is most necessary and fresh in American poetry.

During an enchantment in the life Do you love a living person absolutely? Tell them now. In a half-unwieldy life you made, under the hyaline sky, while the dead drank from zigzag pools nearby, if they saved you in your wild incapacities, in timing of the world’s harm in a little pettiness in your own heart while others took your madrigals in shreds to a tribunal, when others said you should feel grateful to be minimally adequate for the world’s triple exposure or some tired committee...
The ones who love us, how do they break through our defenses? We’re tired today. Come back later. Their baffled voices melting our wax walls with a candle, the ones who understand what being is—the glowing, the broken, the wheels, the brave ones— they have their courage, you have whenyours,,,;youmeet the one you love, it is so rare. When you meet the one who loves you, it is extremely rare.

SHALINI R. AYYAGARI MUSIC / CULTURE SERIES In Musical Resilience, Shalini Ayyagari shows how professional low-caste musicians from the Thar Desert borderland of Rajasthan, India have skillfully reinvented their cultural and economic value in postcolonial India. Before India’s independence in 1947, the Manganiyar community of hereditary musicians were tied to traditional patrons over centuries and through hereditary ties. In postcolonial India, traditional patronage relations faded due to new political conditions, technological shifts, and cultural change. Ayyagari uses resilience, one of the most poignant keywords of our times, to understand how Manganiyar musicians sustain and enliven their cultural significance after the fading of traditional patronage.
Love and Rage is a deeply ethnographic account of punk in Mexico City as it is lived and practiced, connecting the sounds of punk music to different styles of political ac tion. Through compelling first-person accounts, ethnographer Kelley Tatro shows that punk is more than music. It is a lifestyle choice that commits scene participants to ex perimentation with anarchist politics. Key to that process is the concept of autogestión (“self-management”), a term with deep history in local leftist politics. In detailed vi gnettes, grounded in historical, social, and political frames, the book shows how punkscene sounds and practices foster autogestión through intensely affective experiences, understood as manifestations of love and rage. Drawing on the history of anarchism in Mexico City, as well as social movement scholarship, Love and Rage details the plea sures and problems of using music as a tool for creating an autonomous politics.

CRITICAL BRASS Street Carnival and Musical Activism in Olympic Rio de Janeiro SNYDER MUSIC / CULTURE SERIES
Critical Brass tells the story of neofanfarrista, an explosive carnival brass band community turned activist musical movement in Rio de Janeiro, as Brazil shifted from a country on the rise in the 2000s to one beset by various crises in the 2010s. Though predominantly middle-class, neofanfarrista have creatively adapted the critical theories of carnival to militate for a more democratic city. Illuminating the tangible obstacles to musical movement building, Andrew Snyder argues that festive activism with privileged origins can promote real alternatives to the neoliberal city, but meets many limits and contradictions in a society marked by diverse inequalities.

Organized in three parts, the book addresses the transnational in composition in schol arship, teaching, and administration. It brings together contributions from institutional, geopolitical, and cultural contexts ranging from North America, Europe, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Caribbean and covers writing in English, Chinese, multiple European languages, Latin American Spanish, African and West Indian Creoles, and Guianan French. Exploring the relationship among transnational, international, global, and translingual approaches to composition—while complicating the term composition itself—essays draw on theories of border work, mobility, liminality, cross-border interac tion, center-periphery contours, superdiversity, and transnational rhetoric and address, among other topics, models of cognitive processing, principles of universal design, and frames of critical literacy awareness.

APPROACHES TO TEACHING WORLD LITERATURE
A cosmopolitan author who spent nearly a decade in Europe and was versed in the works of his British and French contemporaries, James Fenimore Cooper was also deeply con cerned with the America of his day and its history. His works embrace themes that have dominated American literature since: the frontier; the oppression of Native Americans by Europeans; questions of race, gender, and class; and rugged individualism, as represented by figures like the pirate, the spy, the hunter, and the settler. His most memorable character, Natty Bumppo, has entered into American popular culture.
The essays in this volume offer students bridges to Cooper’s novels, which grapple with complex moral issues that are still crucial today. Engaging with film adaptations, cross-culturalism, animal studies, media history, environmentalism, and Indigenous American poetics, the essays offer new ways to bring these novels to life in the classroom.

Other writing has appeared in The New York Times, Granta, The Paris Review, Kenyon Review, Virginia Quarterly Review, Michigan Quarterly Review, and numerous other periodicals.
SHARONA MUIR Animal Truth and Other Stories is a collection of eco-fabulist tales in which adventures with fantastic animals and real science lead to metamorphoses of the heart. Familiar legends, from Faust and Oedipus to werewolves and time travel, appear in radically new ways: An artist obsessed with species extinction unwittingly summons a demonic double when he creates a “banquet” featur ing a baked mermaid. A brilliant woman studying a rare fish makes a soul-shattering discovery about motherhood. A time-traveling billionaire escapes his modern life only to have his heart broken by a lovely creature in Earth’s remote past. Each tale in this collection turns into gold the prickling straw of anxieties about our continued life on the planet. By turns playful, terrifying, haunting, and sensuous, these stories inspire wonder at the interwoven lives of human and nonhuman beings.

This Book comes twenty-five years after the creation of Nuestra Palabra: Latino Writers Having Their Say in Houston, where Our Voices and Stories were silenced and ignored. This Book is published ten years after Arizona officials enforced a ban on Mexican American Studies. These erasures—and Our resistance to them—have long themselves been erased. That ends now.

In the fall of 1969, on Sunset Boulevard, a giant billboard advertised the newly released album, Abbey Road. Shortly after it appeared, Paul McCartney’s head was cut off the display, mysteriously disappearing. Set against that backdrop, Rejoice the Head of Paul McCartney is about more than a specific incident or snapshot of history; it is a story of people and a generation being shaped by their times. Through its ensemble cast, we see how that moment of desecrating the symbol of an era affects the lives of the characters over the course of several decades. Some characters are drawn to confronting the chal lenges, while others are trying to escape them. But all are affected by the specter of the missing Paul McCartney head.

The personal and professional life of Bruno Kreisky, Austria’s longest-serving chancellor, has been studied extensively. However, his ambiguous and complex relationship to his Jewishness, Israel, and Zionism, and how this influenced his politics and global aspirations, remains only partially researched. This book systematically and comprehensively analyzes these connections through interviews with Kreisky’s contemporaries and archival material. Simultaneously, the book shows that Kreisky was among the most influential and controversial politicians since WWII.

Stories from Memory SAMUEL LEBARON In Ordinary Deaths, Dr. Samuel LeBaron illustrates the human need for acknowledgement and courage when faced with death and loss. Based on notes from over thirty years working with children dying from cancer, the book includes moments from LeBaron’s own childhood, an early career as a clinical psychologist, experiences in medical school, work at the Calgary city morgue, and a subsequent practice and hospice work in California. LeBaron’s stories reveal a life of vital connection and intimacy with others. Writing as he faces his own terminal illness—stage IV lung cancer—LeBaron hopes to leave readers with a book that makes them feel stronger, more confident, and less alone as they experience mortality and lose the certainties we lean on. "If we consider death at all, we tend to load it with drama—but the truth of death is more accessible, and less terrifying, if we’d only dare to look. Using his considerable imagination and experience, Samuel helps us to see the truth before us: profound and plain."

KASIA VAN SCHAIK Kasia Van Schaik’s startling debut story collection captures the most intimate, violent, and transforming moments of female experience in a world threatened by ecological crisis. Raised by a single immigrant mother in a small town in British Columbia, Charlotte Ferrier navigates relationships—with lovers, parents, friends, and environ ments—as they form and fray. Mother and daughter wait out the end of a bad year in a Mexican hotel; a friendship is tested as forest fires demolish Charlotte’s town; a childhood friend disappears while travelling through Europe; and a girl on the beach examines the memories of dying jellyfish. Each story asks: how do we find connection in a world shaped by isolation? How do we accept the new? Calling to mind Alice Munro’s precocious Del Jordan and Rachel Cusk’s Faye, these powerful portraits of female interiority balance nostalgia, fear, and hope for the future as they tell of the struggle to understand what it means to live on earth. Kasia Van Schaik (MONTREAL, QUÉBEC) is a South African-Canadian writer living in Montreal/Tiohtià:ke. We Have Never Lived On Earth is her first story collection.
A Year in Pandemic Time AMY ExploringKALERonewoman’s changing consciousness and confusion, Until Further Notice is a real-time personal account of the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Amy Kaler’s book documents a series of episodic jolts to her thoughts, perceptions, feelings, and habits, creating an internal seismograph of living through a global health emergency. Kaler finds solace in Edmonton’s North Saskatchewan River valley, where she bides her time while other public spaces are closed. As a sociologist, Kaler’s introspection underlines the disso nance brought on by COVID-19. At the same time, the pandemic lets Kaler put down roots, as she rediscovers her neighbourhood and her city’s natural spaces. Reflexive and relatable, Until Further Notice invites readers to think about the ambiguities and perplexities of the pandemic by capturing fine-grained, everyday experiences from an extraordinary year.

MARTIN M. TWEEDALE In Making Wonderful, Martin M. Tweedale tells how an ideology arose in the West that, casting aside earlier philosophic and religious constraints, energized the West’s eco nomic expansion that has led to ecological disaster. The origins of this ideology go back to a highly attractive Zoroastrian myth in which at the end of history human life and the whole world are “made wonderful.” Having flowed through Jewish apocalyptic thought into early Christianity, this vision spawned the utopian thinking that eventually resulted in a distinctively Western idea of progress. When this was abetted by a virtually religious faith in the power of science and technology to improve life, it promoted the kind of economic expansion that now results in planet-wide environmental catastrophe. Making Wonderful is for all readers who find themselves wondering how humanity has come to be in today’s calamitous predicament.

DAVIS Lazăr Săineanu (1859-1934), linguist and folklorist, was a pioneer in his native Romania, seeking out the popular elements in culture along with high literary ones. He was the first to publish a study of Yiddish as a genuine language, and he uncovered Turkish features in Romanian language and customs. He also made an index of hundreds of Romanian folktales. Yet when he sought Romanian citizenship and a professorship, he was blocked by powerful fig ures who thought Jews could not be Romanians and who fancied the origins of Romanian culture to be wholly Latin. Faced with anti-Semitism, some of his friends turned to Zionism. Instead he tried baptism, which brought him only mockery and shame. Hoping to find a polity to which he could belong, Săineanu moved with his family to Paris in 1900 and became Lazare Sainéan. There he made innovative studies of French popular speech and slang, culminating in his great work on the origins of that language. Once again, he was contributing to the development of a national tongue. Even then, while welcomed by literary scholars, Sainéan was unable to get a permanent university post. Though a natural ized citizen of France, he felt himself a foreigner, an “intruder,” into his old age.

THE TRIUMPH OF UNCERTAINTY Science and Self in the Postmodern Age
JULY
ALFRED I. TAUBER From quantum mechanics to complex biological systems, science’s quest for explanatory certainty has given way to probabilistic de scription. Uncertainty; thus, has become constitutive of depictions of reality. This is an inevitable outcome of irreducible chance and indeterminate causality. And beyond these epistemological limits, the interpretative faculties of the individual scientist invariably affects how data are understood. Whereas positivism had claimed radical objectivity, post-positivists have identified how a web of non-epistemic values and social forces profoundly influence the production of knowledge. Tauber, investigates these issues as a participant-observer. The Triumph of Uncertainty tracks his own experiences as a laboratory investigator and as a philosopher, from the lingering positivism of the Vienna Circle to the post-positivism of late 20th centu ry Boston. He shows, through autobiographical narrative, how immunology in particular exemplifies these post-positivist issues. Immunology’s interpretive problems in regard to biological identi ty, individuality, and cognition resonate with postmodern debates in philosophy, psychology, sociology, and cultural criticism. The correspondence between contemporary immunology and cultural notions of selfhood are strong and striking. Just as uncertainty haunts science, so too does it hover over current constructions of personal identity, self-knowledge, and moral agency.

NOVEMBER
This farcical tale tells how the British bombing of a Finnish port city changes the life of the Russian governor, his wife, their cook, and the cook’s Finnish fiancé. The story takes place during a Nordic offshoot of the Crimean conflict, known as the Åland War, in which a British-French naval force attacked the coast of the Grand Duchy of Finland in 1854–1856. The location of the novella is Åbo, today’s Turku, where soldiers in the Russian garrison enjoy life, Cossacks dance and drink, and the governor’s wife is preoccupied about her cook’s marriage to a local lad, against which the governor and the English admiral devise a plot... Spitteler’s deeply held pacifism breaks through his otherwise sarcastic description of the characters and episodes in the novella.
STANISLAU SHUSHKEVICH (1934-2022) This memoir of the first president of an independent Belarus (1991-1994) tells about the revival of independent Belarus, the difficulties in establishing a democracy and a market economy, a hardened Soviet mentality, and the political immaturity of the intelligentsia and obduracy of the old nomenklatura. The book describes Shushkevich’s role in hosting the Belavezha Accords, which brought about the end of the Soviet Union, and explores the motivation behind the decision for the de jure dissolution of the empire at a time when the major world leaders were categorically against the division of the USSR into independent states. Shushkevich also provides valuable insights into contemporary Belarus, including an assessment of Lukashenka’s controversial role in recent events.

THE MAKING OF MaˇMaˇLIGaˇ
The Lower Danube—the stretch of Europe’s second longest river between the RomanianSerbian border and the confluence to the Black Sea—was effectively transformed during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Military conflicts and peace treaties changed the nature of sovereignty over the area, as the expansionist tendencies of the Habsburg and British Empires encountered rival Ottoman and Russian imperial plans. The inconvenience that the river’s physical shape obstructed free navigation and the growth of commercial traffic, was an increasing concern to all par ties. This book shows that alongside imperial aspirations, transnational actors like engineers, commissioners and entrepreneurs were the driving force behind the river regulation.

Three generations of a family of lawyers have run a firm founded in 1893 in the small city of Becskerek (today in Serbian Zrenjanin), first part of the Austro-Hungarian Habsburg monar chy, then Hungary, then Yugoslavia, then for a while under German occupation, then again part of Yugoslavia and finally Serbia. In the Banat district of the province of Vojvodina, the multiplicity of languages and religions and changes of place-names was a matter of course. What is practically unprecedented is that all files, folders and documents of the law office have survived. They concern marriages, divorces, births and testaments, as well as expul sions, emigrations, incarcerations and releases of these largely rural and small-town dwell ers. Mundane cases reflect times through war, peace, revolution and counter-revolution, through serfdom and freedom, through comfort and poverty.

POLICEMEN OF THE TSAR
Russia’s police were key instruments of tsarist power. In the reign of Alexander II (18551881), local police forces took on new importance. The liberation of 23 million serfs from landlord control, growing fear of crime, and the terrorist violence of the closing years challenged law enforcement with new tasks that made worse what was already a staggering burden.

This book describes the regime’s decades-long struggle to reform and strengthen the police. It reviews the local police’s role and performance in the mid-nineteenth century and the implications of the largely unsuccessful effort to transform them. The study also considers how the police’s systemic weaknesses undermined tsarist rule, impeded a range of liberalizing reforms, perpetuated reliance on the military to maintain law and order, and gave rise to vigilante justice.

Urban Religious Life and Communities in Late Medieval Pressburg (1400–1530)
JUDIT MAJOROSSY This study of religion in the everyday life of late medieval Pressburg (historical Posonium/ Pozsony, present-day Bratislava) shows what bequests for the souls of the dead can tell about the religious thinking of fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century inhabitants, and how overlapping religious and secular communities were active in memorial activities.
Pressburg was always an important cultural crossroads. Adjacent to Vienna, it was a commercial gateway for the medieval kingdom of Hungary to the west, and from the 1541 Ottoman occupation of Buda until the seventeenth century it was the residence of Hungary’s kings. Thanks to it abundant archival material, it is an ideal place for which to reconstruct religious and cultural customs. In interpreting its citizens’ last wills, Majorossy draws on art and archaeology, on urban elites, kinship networks, and social topography.

While the literature of hybrid regimes has given up the presumption that post-communist countries must democratize, its language and concepts still mostly relate to Western democ racies. Magyar and Madlovics strongly argue for a vocabulary and grammar tailored to the specifics of the region. In 120 short propositions they unfold a conceptual framework with (1) a typology of post-communist regimes and (2) a detailed presentation of ideal-type actors and the political, economic, and social phenomena in these regimes. The book is a more di gestible companion to the 800-page The Anatomy of Post-Communist Regimes (CEU Press, 2020), which was a detailed theoretical study with plenty of empirical illustrations. BÁLINT MAGYAR (Budapest, Hungary) is Research Fellow at CEU Democracy Institute. BÁLINT MADLOVICS (Budapest, Hungary) is a political scientist and economist.

BÁLINT MAGYAR, BÁLINT MADLOVICS
The authors challenge conventional notions about Habsburg and Czechoslovak politics, arguing that they were more democratic than they often appear. At combining political science and history, the authors’ guiding principle and means of analysis is the consociational model of Consociationalismdemocracy.hasproven its worth as a model for describing contemporary democ racies and diagnosing their ills. By exploring the institutions and practices of the Habsburg Monarchy before 1918 and the Czechoslovak First Republic, Howe, Lorman, and Miller prove the value of the consociational theory at analyzing the past. They hold that a multi tude of parties, frequent cabinet changes, and reliance on circles of experts do not neces sarily signal flawed democracies, when, in fact, they are features of consociationalism.
Who were the dissident intellectuals and what did they want? Under what conditions do intellectuals rebel and what are the patterns of their protest?
Bozóki argues that the Hungarian intellectuals did not become a ‘New Class’. By rolling transition, he means an incremental, non-violent, elite driven political transformation which is based on the rotation of agency, and it results in a new regime. This is led mainly by different groups of intellectuals who do not construct a vanguard movement but create an open network. Their roles changed from dissidents to reformers, to movement organizers and negotiators through the periods of dissidence, open network building, roundtable negotiations, parliamentary activities, and new movement politics.
Utilizing a new and original framework for examining the role of intellectuals in countries transitioning to democracy, Bozóki analyses the rise and fall of dissident intellectuals in Hungary in the late 20th century. He shows how that framework is applicable to other countries too as he forensically examines their activities.

THE RISE AND DECLINE OF COMMUNIST CZECHOSLOVAKIA'S RAILWAY SECTOR

ROLLING TRANSITION
Once the pride of interwar Czechoslovakia, and key during the forced industrialization of the Stalinist period, during the 1970s and 1980s the Czechoslovak railway sector showed the symptoms of the political tiredness and economic exhaustion of the Soviet Bloc. Based on the presentation of its history and on the detailed scrutiny of the actors, institutions, internal mechanisms, and conditions of the railway sector, the analysis reveals the identities of the real stakeholders in the state administration. This case shows how the country was governed by Communist Party institutions and government ministries, and how developments in the transportation sector—like in every sector—reflected their priorities. Numerous tables with selected statistics underscore the economic analysis and black and white photos offer a glimpse on the technical base of the railway sector.

DYNAMICS OF AN AUTHORITARIAN SYSTEM
KEEPING THE WORLD’S ENVIRONMENT UNDER REVIEW
JAN BAKKES, ET AL. Among the myriad detailed narratives about the condition of the planet, the Global Envi ronment Outlook (GEO) reports—issued by the United Nations Environment Programme— stand out as the most ambitious. For nearly three decades the GEO project has not only delivered iconic global assessment reports, but through its multitude of contributors has inspired hundreds of similar processes worldwide from the regional to the local level. This book provides an inside account of the evolution of the GEO project from its earliest days. Building on meticulous research, including interviews with former heads of the UN Environment Programme, diplomats, leading contributing scientists, and senior leaders of collaborating organizations, the story is told from the perspective of five GEO veterans who all played a pivotal role in shaping the periodic assessments.

Six scholars from various professional fields explore the metamorphosis of a political party into a centralized authoritarian system. Viktor Orbán and his Fidesz party needed less than ten years to accomplish this transformation in Hungary. In 2010, after winning a majority that could make changes in the constitution – two-thirds of the parliamentary seats, they evolved and stabilized the system, which produced again the two-thirds majority in 2014 and 2018. The authors reveal how a democratic setting can be used as a device for political capture. They show how a political entity managed to penetrate almost all sub-fields of the economy to arrive at institutionalized corruption, and how the centralized power structure reproduces itself.

EDITED BY LIVIU MATEI, CHRISTOF ROYER
Fifteen essays address real-world contemporary challenges to open society from a variety of perspectives. What unites the individual authors and chapters is an interest in open society’s continuing usefulness and relevance to address current problems. And what distinguishes them is a rich variety of geographical and cultural backgrounds, and a wide range of academic disciplines and traditions.
The book features a comprehensive introduction to the history and current ‘uses’ of the theory of open society. The authors link the concept to contemporary themes including education, Artificial Intelligence, cognitive science, African cosmology, colonialism, and feminism. The diversity of viewpoints reflects a commitment to plurality that is at the heart of this book and of the idea of open society itself.

The book goes beyond simplistic media interpretations that limit the analysis to Vladimir Putin and Russian aims to annex Ukraine. Instead, the authors identify the deeper roots linked to the history and autonomy of Donbas as a region. The contributions explore local society and traditions and the alienation from the rest of Ukraine caused by the events of Euromaidan, which saw the removal of the Donetsk-based president Viktor Yanukovych.
The Contemporary Relevance of a Contested Idea
Chapters address the refugee crisis, the Minsk Accords in 2014 and the impact of president Volodymyr Zelensky and his efforts to bring the war to an end.
