  • [Spanish] - Excesos by Emilio Ontiveros
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/526163 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - Excesos Author: Emilio Ontiveros Narrator: Javier Serrano Palacios Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 18 minutes Release date: April 1, 2021 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: ¿Qué importancia tiene China en el nuevo orden mundial? ¿Por qué Trump tiene miedo a Huawei? ¿Qué papel le espera a Europa después del brexit? Y, sobre todo, ¿cómo repercutirán en nuestro país las peleas en el tablero internacional? Emilio Ontiveros hace un repaso de lo que queda después de la gran crisis y se anticipa al mundo que viene. Porque si la globalización sigue desarrollándose de forma descontrolada, o controlada por las grandes corporaciones multinacionales y no por los gobiernos y los organismos internacionales, se redoblará la tendencia a la 'introspección' de los países, es decir, a los aranceles, los cierres de fronteras y las guerras comerciales. Un fascinante viaje que nos avisa y propone medidas correctoras que pasarían por una mayor colaboración entre países.

Anderson Jr. Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 58 minutes Release date: March 31, 2021 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Your personal identity describes who you are, who you aspire to be, or who people perceive you to be. The majority of us have been told in our lives at one time or another that we can be whoever or whatever we want to be, but what happens when someone else makes that decision for you without your honest consent? Typically in our society when someone's identity is stolen, there are a series of laws and agencies in place to remedy that issue; however, when it is the lawmaker that is the thief of your identity what recourse do you have? Who do you tell? Who can help you? Who will believe you? Stolen Identity is a story about a young man's battle with a dysfunctional family, a faulty criminal justice system, and oppressive society to distinguish who he really is from who they have labeled him as and virtually created him to be.

  • Faith, Gender, and Activism in the Punjab Conflict: The Wheat Fields Still Whisper by Mallika Kaur
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/530146 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Faith, Gender, and Activism in the Punjab Conflict: The Wheat Fields Still Whisper Author: Mallika Kaur Narrator: Soneela Nankani Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 18 minutes Release date: March 30, 2021 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Punjab was the arena of one of the first major armed conflicts of postcolonial India. During its deadliest decade, as many as 250,000 people were killed. This audiobook makes an urgent intervention in the history of the conflict, which to date has been characterized by a fixation on sensational violence—or ignored altogether. Mallika Kaur unearths the stories of three people who found themselves at the center of Punjab’s human rights movement: Baljit Kaur, who armed herself with a video camera to record essential evidence of the conflict; Justice Ajit Singh Bains, who became a beloved “people’s judge”; and Inderjit Singh Jaijee, who returned to Punjab to document abuses even as other elites were fleeing. Together, they are credited with saving countless lives. Braiding oral histories, personal snapshots, and primary documents recovered from at-risk archives, Kaur shows that when entire conflicts are marginalized, we miss essential stories: stories of faith, feminist action, and the power of citizen-activists.

Vorsorgen - Warum Vorsorgevollmacht, Patientenverfügung und Testament nicht auf die lange Bank gehören und wie du sie angehst (ungekürzt) Author: Pia-Rhona Saxe Narrator: Pia-Rhona Saxe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 47 minutes Release date: March 26, 2021 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: ,,Ach, dieses leidige Thema. Das machen wir irgendwann.' So oder so ähnlich denken viele Menschen, wenn es um Vorsorgemaßnahmen für Krankheits- oder Todesfälle geht. Und ehe man es sich versieht, ist der Ernstfall eingetreten und man hat - du errätst es sicher - nicht vorgesorgt. Schon hängt das Amtsgericht in deiner Privatsache drin und die dadurch ausgelöste, zusätzliche Behördenrennerei ist erst recht nicht das, was man in solchen Situationen braucht. Dieses Buch soll dir kein schlechtes Gefühl vermitteln, sondern dir im lockeren Gesprächston vermitteln, welche Vorsorgemaßnahmen es gibt und wie du den eventuellen Ernstfall schon im Vorfeld bürokratisch lösen kannst. Darüber hinaus erfährst du auch, ob die einzelnen Maßnahmen mit Kosten verbunden sind und sogar konkret, wie hoch diese Kosten sein könnten. Nach dem Lesen hast du dir einen Überblick über die Themen Vorsorgevollmacht, Patientenverfügung, Erbrecht und Testamente und die damit verbundenen Kosten verschafft und kommst ins Handeln, weil du weißt, wie wichtig die richtige Vorsorge ist und vor allem, wie du sie angehen könntest.

Estas tres afirmaciones se pueden utilizar como punto de partida para hablar de por qué cuando la economía enferma (decrece) la gente muere menos. O de qué significa la justicia en salud en tiempos en los que hay que defender cada derecho conquistado. O de cómo se ven representadas las injusticias culturales en las políticas de salud. O de que si queremos enfatizar los cuidados, tal vez los servicios de salud tengan que empezar por no ser lugares donde estos estén muy devaluados. O de cómo nos las vamos a arreglar para que la novedosa medicina postgenómica sea algo más que la forma tecnologizada de la más desigual de las sociedades posibles. Este libro plantea qué sociedad puede permitirse una sanidad pública para las próximas décadas, y qué sistema público de salud puede aportar algo a una sociedad que ha de transformarse para resistir y cambiar las dinámicas de precarización y crisis permanente del sistema económico y social.

  • [German] - Move - Das Zeitalter der Migration (Ungekürzt) by Parag Khanna
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/514222 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [German] - Move - Das Zeitalter der Migration (Ungekürzt) Author: Parag Khanna Narrator: Julian Mehne Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 24 minutes Release date: March 24, 2021 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: 'Ein Mann, der uns mit einem radikal anderen Blick auf die Welt zum Nachdenken zwingt', urteilt Bundespräsident Steinmeier über den Denker aus Singapur. Diesen anderen, neuen Blick stellt Parag Khanna in 'Move' eindrucksvoll unter Beweis. Er bringt Geschichte, Politik und die natürlichen Lebensbedingungen des Menschen, die sich gerade rasant verändern, zusammen und leitet daraus Voraussagen für die Zukunft ab. Seine Grundthese: Die Menschheit wird sich in den nächsten Jahrzehnten neu auf der Erde verteilen (müssen). Gebiete, die bislang von der Natur bevorzugt wurden, drohen unbewohnbar zu werden; alte Industrieregionen, die Millionen von Menschen angezogen haben, werden veröden; neue Zentren werden entstehen. All dies wird nicht auf ein Land beschränkt sein, sondern zum weltweiten Phänomen. Die Gründe, die Khanna für riesige Migrationsströme über die Kontinente hinweg sieht, sind vielfältig: von demographischen Schieflagen und unterschiedlichen Modernisierungsgeschwindigkeiten über Klimaveränderungen bis zu sich neu verteilenden Arbeitsmöglichkeiten. Die Menschen werden, ob aus Zwang oder freiwillig, in kaum vorstellbarer Weise 'on the move' sein. Faktenreich, mit anschaulichen Beispielen und überzeugendem Zahlenmaterial entwirft Khanna die 'Zivilisation 3.0', in der Mobilität unser aller Schicksal, ja die Signatur der Zeit sein wird.

  • Green Fraud: Why the Green New Deal Is Even Worse Than You Think by Marc Morano
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/528907 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Green Fraud: Why the Green New Deal Is Even Worse Than You Think Author: Marc Morano Narrator: John Mclain Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 7 minutes Release date: March 23, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.67 of Total 3 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: Marc Morano’s analysis of the proposed Green New Deal is eye-opening and damning. In his new book, Green Fraud: Why the Green New Deal Is Even Worse Than You Think, Morano exposes the program as a far-left agenda filled with progressive policies disguised as a way to save the planet. No matter what the environmental scare-of-the-day may be, Morano says, the same solution is always proposed—and that solution should scare us. Morano clearly shows how the Green New Deal will lay a path for “global governance,” resulting in less freedom, less sovereignty, massive government bureaucracy, and significant, crippling wealth redistribution. Drawing on past “new deals” to illustrate the impact such “deals” have on the United States, Morano will explain how FDR’s New Deal and Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” really impacted American society. And this latest big government program is no different. In Green Fraud, Morano reveals how the Green New Deal’s objectives extend far beyond the environment—including free college; “healthy food” for all; “safe, affordable, adequate housing” provided by the government; and other far-left agenda items;that in Europe, where climate policies are years ahead of the United States, energy rationing, low economic growth, and rising costs are leading to misery and even death among Europeans;how even Green New Deal allies such as the New York Times and Washington Post have outed the legislation as a wish-list of progressive policies; andhow America can and must defeat the Green New Deal and restore sanity to the climate and energy policy discussion.

  • Reclaiming Patriotism in an Age of Extremes by Steven B. Smith
    Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/523171 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Reclaiming Patriotism in an Age of Extremes Author: Steven B. Smith Narrator: Mack Sanderson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 53 minutes Release date: February 23, 2021 Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics Publisher's Summary: A rediscovery of patriotism as a virtue in line with the core values of democracy in an extremist age The concept of patriotism has fallen on hard times. What was once a value that united Americans has become so politicized by both the left and the right that it threatens to rip apart the social fabric. On the right, patriotism has become synonymous with nationalism and an “us versus them” worldview, while on the left it is seen as an impediment to acknowledging important ethnic, religious, or racial identities and a threat to cosmopolitan globalism. Steven B. Smith reclaims patriotism from these extremist positions and advocates for a patriotism that is broad enough to balance loyalty to country against other loyalties. Describing how it is a matter of both the head and the heart, Smith shows how patriotism can bring the country together around the highest ideals of equality and is a central and ennobling disposition that democratic societies cannot afford to do without.
