Publisher's Summary:

Anarchism has been both a vision of a peaceful, cooperative society—and an ideology of revolutionary terror. Since the term itself—anarchism—is a negation, there is a great deal of disagreement on what the positive alternative would look like. The black flag comes in many colors.The Anarchist Handbook is an opportunity for all these many varied voices to speak for themselves, from across the decades. These were human beings who saw things differently from their fellow men. They fought and they loved. They lived and they died. They disagreed on much, but they all shared one vision: Freedom.

Title: [Spanish] - Apuntes sobre la supresión general de los partidos políticos

Author: Simone Weil

Narrator: Cecilia Bona

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 1 hour 25 minutes

Release date: November 15, 2021

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

Incluso en las escuelas ya no se sabe estimular de otra manera el pensamiento de los niños si no es invitándolos a tomar partido a favor o en contra de algo. Se cita la frase de un gran autor y se les dice: '¿Están de acuerdo o no? Desarrollen sus argumentos'. Los desgraciados, en el examen, deben terminar su exposición al cabo de tres horas, pero no pueden dedicar más de cinco minutos a preguntarse si están de acuerdo. Cuánto más fácil sería decirles: 'Mediten sobre este texto y expresen las reflexiones que les lleguen al espíritu'. Casi por todas partes, e incluso a veces por problemas puramente técnicos, la operación de tomar partido, de tomar posición a favor o en contra, ha sustituido a la obligación de pensar. Es una lepra que ha tenido origen en los ambientes políticos y se ha extendido, a través de todo el país, casi a la totalidad del pensamiento. Es dudoso que se pueda remediar esta lepra que nos mata si no se comienza por suprimir los partidos políticos.

Title: Environmental Guilt and Shame: Signals of Individual and Collective Responsibility and the Need for Ritual Responses

Author: Sarah E. Fredericks

Narrator: Sara Sheckells

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 12 hours 1 minute

Release date: November 2, 2021

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

Bloggers confessing that they waste food, non-governmental organizations naming corporations selling unsustainably harvested seafood, and veterans apologizing to Native Americans at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation for environmental and social devastation caused by the US government all signal the existence of action-oriented guilt and identity-oriented shame about participation in environmental degradation. Environmental Guilt and Shame demonstrates that these moral emotions are common among environmentally friendly segments of the US but have received little attention from environmental ethicists. Environmental Guilt and Shame makes three major claims: first, individuals and collectives can have identity, agency, and responsibility and thus guilt and shame. Second, some agents, including collectives, should feel guilt and/or shame for environmental degradation if they hold environmental values and think that their actions shape and reveal their identity. Third, a number of conditions are required to conceptually, existentially, and practically deal with guilt and shame's effects on agents. These conditions can be developed and maintained through rituals. Existing rituals need more development to fully deal with individual and collective guilt and shame as well as the anthropogenic environmental degradation that may spark them.

Title: A Decent Meal: Building Empathy in a Divided America

Author: Michael Carolan

Narrator: Patrick Lawlor

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 58 minutes

Release date: October 26, 2021

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

While America's new reality appears to be a deeply divided body politic, many are wondering how we can or should move forward from here. Can political or social divisiveness be healed? Is empathy among people with very little ideological common ground possible? In A Decent Meal, Michael Carolan finds answers to these fundamental questions in a series of unexpected places: around our dinner tables, along the aisles of our supermarkets, and in the fields growing our fruits and vegetables. What is more common, after all, than the simple fact that we all need to eat? This book is the result of Carolan's efforts to create simulations in which food could be used to build empathy, among even the staunchest of rivals. Carolan argues that we must find places and practices where incivility is suspended and leverage those opportunities into tools for building social cohesion. Each chapter follows individuals who participated in a given experiment, ranging from strawberry-picking, attempting to subsist on SNAP benefits, or attending a dinner of wild game. By engaging with participants before, during, and after, Carolan is able to document their remarkable shifts in attitude and opinion. Though this book is framed around food, it is really about the spaces opened up by food, in our communities, in our homes, and, ultimately, in our minds.

Title: The Shattering: America in the 1960s

Author: Kevin Boyle

Narrator: Jonathan Yen

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 18 hours 22 minutes

Release date: October 26, 2021

Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 2

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

On July 4, 1961, the rising middle-class families of a Chicago neighborhood gathered before their flag-bedecked houses, a confident vision of the American Dream. That vision was shattered over the following decade, its inequities at home and arrogance abroad challenged by powerful civil rights and antiwar movements. Assassinations, social violence, and the blowback of a 'silent majority' shredded the American fabric. Covering the late 1950s through the early 1970s, The Shattering focuses on the period's fierce conflicts over race, sex, and war. The civil rights movement develops from the grassroots activism of Montgomery and the sit-ins, through the violence of Birmingham and the Edmund Pettus Bridge, to the frustrations of King's Chicago campaign, a rising Black nationalism, and the Nixon-era politics of busing and the Supreme Court. Kevin Boyle captures the inspiring and brutal events of this passionate time with a remarkable empathy that restores the humanity of those making this history. Often they are everyday people like Elizabeth Eckford, enduring a hostile crowd outside her newly integrated high school in Little Rock, or Estelle Griswold, welcoming her arrest for dispensing birth control information in a Connecticut town.

Title: The Genome Defense: Inside the Epic Legal Battle to Determine Who Owns Your DNA

Author: Jorge L. Contreras

Narrator: Kaleo Griffith

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 12 hours 35 minutes

Release date: October 26, 2021

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

In this riveting, behind-the-scenes courtroom drama, a brilliant legal team battles corporate greed and government overreach for our fundamental right to control our genes. When attorney Chris Hansen learned that the U.S. government was issuing patents for human genes to biotech companies, his first thought was, How can a corporation own what makes us who we are? Then he discovered that women were being charged exorbitant fees to test for hereditary breast and ovarian cancers, tests they desperately needed—all because Myriad Genetics had patented the famous BRCA genes. So he sued them. Jorge L. Contreras, one of the nation’s foremost authorities on human genetics law, has devoted years to investigating the groundbreaking civil rights case known as AMP v. Myriad. In The Genome Defense Contreras gives us the view from inside as Hansen and his team of ACLU lawyers, along with a committed group of activists, scientists, and physicians, take their one-in-a-million case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Contreras interviewed more than a hundred key players involved in all aspects of the case—from judges and policy makers to ethicists and genetic counselors, as well as cancer survivors and those whose lives would be impacted by the decision—expertly weaving together their stories into a fascinating narrative of this pivotal moment in history.   The Genome Defense is a powerful and compelling story about how society must balance scientific discovery with corporate profits and the rights of all people.

Publisher's Summary:

Der westliche Mann wird unterdrückt und verweiblicht, er ist vom Aussterben bedroht.' So klingt der immer lauter werdende Kriegsschrei der Antifeministen, der zu einem Mantra der wiedererstarkenden Rechten geworden ist. Man hört ihn von hyperagressiven Maskulisten und rechtsradikalen Burschenschaftern, von hasszerfressenen Internet-Trollen und neurechten Frauenhassern. Tobias Ginsburg hat sich ihnen ein Jahr lang undercover angeschlossen, um herauszufinden, wo diese Ängste und all der Hass herrühren. Er trifft dabei auf testosteronverklebte Sexisten ebenso wie auf verzweifelte Vaterrechtsaktivisten, lässt sich zum 'wahren-Mann-Sein' anleiten und begleitet muskelbepackte Neonazis bei der Rekrutierung junger Männer. Eine gefährliche Reise in fremde Welten mitten unter uns, in die die meisten Männer und Frauen nie vordringen können. 'Ein leidenschaftlicher Aufklärer.' - MDR Sachsenspiegel.
