 Jessica Kingsley Publishers Sei-Ki: Life in Resonance - The Secret Art of Shiatsu GTIN: 9781848190429 Raamatud The therapeutic art of shiatsu is now widely practised in the West, yet practitioners find it difficult to acquire the training that will take them beyond the mechanistic level. For many years Akinobu Kishi has been visiting the West to teach, but never before has his approach been recorded in book form. Regarded as one of the leading exponents of shiatsu, Kishi trained with and assisted Shizuto Masunaga, and is widely regarded as the heir to his work, developed to the higher level of Seiki Soho, which takes the practice beyond technique. With the assistance of his long-term student Alice Whieldon, Kishi's theory and practice of Seiki Soho are described and explained for the first time in this important book. Setting his work within the historical context of shiatsu, the long central section of the book consists of a dialogue about the fundamental principles and practice of Masunaga's Zen Shiatsu and Seiki Soho as taught by Kishi. The final section consists of case studies of practice, including the experiences of people treated by Kishi. This groundbreaking and generous book is illustrated with Kishi's calligraphy and other artwork, and will be essential reading for all shiatsu practitioners and students who want to deepen their practice, and a rich and rewarding read for anyone interested in Eastern approaches to life and healing.

 Verso Books Civil Imagination: A Political Ontology of Photography New edition GTIN: 9781804292594 Raamatud "This remarkable book enhances Ariella Azoulays position as the most compelling theorist of photography writing today."Jonathan Crary, author of Scorched EarthA groundbreaking work on the power of photography as a vehicle for civil protestUnderstanding photography is more than a matter of assessing photographs, writes Ariella Azoulay. The photograph is merely one event in a sequence that constitutes photography and which always involves an actual or potential spectator in the relationship between the photographer and the individual portrayed. The shift in focus from product to practice, outlined in Civil Imagination, brings to light the way images can both reinforce and resist the oppressive reality foisted upon the people depicted.Through photography, Civil Imagination seeks out relations of partnership, solidarity, and sharing that come into being at the expense of sovereign powers that threaten to destroy them. Azoulay argues that the civil must be distinguished from the political as the interest that citizens have in themselves, in others, in their shared forms of coexistence, as well as in the world they create and transform. Azoulays book sketches out a new horizon of civil living for citizens as well as subjects denied citizenshipinevitable partners in a reality they are invited to imagine anew and to reconstruct.Beautifully produced with many illustrations, Civil Imagination is a provocative argument for photography as a civic practice capable of reclaiming civil power.

 Verso Books Loot: How Israel Stole Palestinian Property GTIN: 9781804295151 Raamatud How the Nakba was marked not just by forced expulsions but also widespread looting of Palestinian propertyDuring the 1948 war, looting was a general and widespread phenomenon whereby Israeli fighters and residents alike plundered Palestinian property - including homes, shops, businesses, and farms - left behind by those who were expelled or fled during the war.This bitter truth was then silenced and forgotten by the Jewish public in Israel over the years: thousands of shops and tens of thousands of homes and buildings were pillaged by the Jewish residents of the country during and after the war.The pillage of Palestinian property was carried out by tens of thousands who stole the belongings of those who had been their neighbours. However, this mass looting has implications that go far beyond the personality or moral fortitude of those who took part in it. The widespread looting served a political agenda that sought to empty the country of its Palestinian residents. It should be seen in its context as an aspect of the prevailing policy during the war - a policy that sought, among other things, to crush the Palestinian economy, destroy villages, and to confiscate and sometimes destroy crops and harvests remaining in displaced villages.The participating Jewish public became a stakeholder in preventing Palestinian residents from returning to the villages and cities they left, and as such, was mobilized to support a political agenda that pushed for segregation between Jews and Arabs in the early years of statehood.

This new secular impetus strode hand in hand with racial capitalism in the age of empires: a terrestrial paradise was to be achieved through accumulation and the ravaging of nature.Far from a defence of religion, The States of the Earth argues that phenomena such as evangelism and political Islam are best understood as products of empire and secularization.

Breaking with accounts which focus on the actions of a single state or the final countdown to hostilities, Paul W. Schroeder describes the systemic crisis engulfing the Great Powers.They were more interested in colonial plunder overseas (stealing horses to great applause, in the old Spanish adage) than the traditional statecraft of European peace-making. Preserving the balance of power required preserving all the essential actors in it, including a tottering Austria-Hungary. This the British in particular failed to recognise. The Central Powers may have started the War but that does not mean they in any real sense caused it. In the end Schroeder recalls the verdict of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet: All are punished.Stealing Horses to Great Applause includes appraisals of Niall Ferguson and A. J. P. Taylor, and an extensive unpublished final paper rethinking the First World War as "the last 18th-century war."With an introduction by Perry Anderson. Autorid: Paul W.

The Rest and the West locates the origins of this development in the turbulent dynamics of the capitalist world market. Rather than reducing global conflict to a matter of great power rivalries or the process of economic decoupling, Sandro Mezzadra and Brett Neilson investigate the increasing centrality of war to capital operations and to the transformation of capitalism. The goal is to forge a theory of imperialism adequate to a world in which the rest no longer provides a putative unity that defines and opposes theWest.

 Verso Books After Black Lives Matter: Policing and Anti-Capitalist Struggle GTIN: 9781804293003 Raamatud "After Black Lives Matter should be commended both for the clarity of its message and the bravery of its convictions."Jay Caspian Kang, New YorkerWhy did a movement as powerful as the one inspired by the murder of George Floyd fall short of securing its most militant demands?The murder of George Floyd prompted a historic uprising that transformed the way Americans and the world think about race and policing. Why did that movement fall short of the most militant demands to defund and dismantle police departments? After Black Lives Matter argues that the failure to make institutional changes was not a simple result of the mercurial and reactive character of the protests. Rather, the core of the movement itself failed to locate the central racial injustice that underpins the crisis of policing:socioeconomic inequality.The anticapitalist and downwardly redistributive politics of many Black Lives Matter activists has too often been drowned out in the flood of black wealth creation, the fetishism of Jim Crow black entrepreneurship, corporate diversity initiatives, and a quixotic reparations demand. Contemporary policing reflects the turn from welfare to domestic warfare as the chief means of controlling the most dispossessed elementsof the working class.The way forward lies in building popular democratic power to advance redistributive policies and social welfare.

She begins by asking how her family became assimilated into the identities of Israeli, Jewish, or French.As she does, she finds a whole lost world open up to her the world of her family, the Arab Jews of Algeria. She traces how Arab Jews were severed from other Arabs, and how Arab Jews were severed from their Arabness by the Israeli vision of a Jewish diaspora, and sets out to repair those breaks and revive their world.But it is in the return to the carefully crafted jewels, whose beautifully crafted objects act as messages to the future, reminds us of the conviviality of a world that existed long before colonial disruption, and whose memory challenges the imperial ways of thinking we have all inherited.

 Verso Books Last Man Takes LSD: Foucault and the End of Revolution New edition GTIN: 9781804292648 Raamatud Foucaults personal and political experimentation, its ambiguous legacy, and the rise of neoliberal politicsPart intellectual history, part critical theory, The Last Man Takes LSD challenges the way we think about both Michel Foucault and modern progressive politics. One fateful day in May 1975, Foucault dropped acid in the southern California desert. In letters reproduced here, he described it as among the most important events of his life, one which would lead him to completely rework his History of Sexuality. That trip helped redirect Foucaults thought and contributed to a tectonic shift in the intellectual life of the era. He came to reinterpret the social movements of May 68 and reposition himself politically in France, embracing anti-totalitarian currents and becoming a critic of the welfare state.Mitchell Dean and Daniel Zamora examine the full historical context of the turn in Foucaults thought, which included studies of the Iranian revolution and French socialist politics, through which he would come to appreciate the possibilities of autonomy offered by a new force on the French political scene that was neither of the left nor the right: neoliberalism.

 Verso Books Lean on Me: A Politics of Radical Care GTIN: 9781804292945 Raamatud "A personal and political memoir about interdependence and the importance of caring for each other"-- Have you ever relied on the kindness of strangers? What brings people together to find hope and solidarity? What do we owe each other as citizens and comrades?Questions of care, intimacy, education, meaningful work, and social engagement lie at the core of our ability to understand the world and its possibilities for human flourishing. In Lean On Me feminist thinker Lynne Segal goes in search of hope in her own life and in the world around her. She finds it entwined in our intimate commitments to each other and our shared collective endeavours.Segal calls this shared dependence 'radical care'. In recounting from her own life the moments of motherhood, and of being on the front line of second-wave feminism, she draws upon lessons from more than half a century of engagement in left feminist politics, with its underlying commitment to building a more egalitarian and nurturing world. The personal and the political combine in this rallying cry to transform radically how we approach education, motherhood, and our everyday vulnerabilities of disability, ageing, and enhanced needs.Only by confronting head-on these different forms of interdependence and care can we change the way we think about the environment and learn to struggle together against impending climate catastrophe.

 Verso Books Zone: An Alternative History of Paris GTIN: 9781804294048 Raamatud In The Zone, Justinien Tribillon takes the reader on a tour of an eponymous Parisian hinterland. The site of dreams and nightmares, from Van Gogh's paintings to the cinematic violence of La Haine, the Zone, so often misun- derstood, is the key to understanding today's Paris, and even France itself. Originally the site of defensive walls, alongside which mushroomed makeshift housing, allotments, and dancehalls in the nineteenth century, the Zone has performed many functions and been a place of contention for two centuries. Dismantled in the 1920s, the fortifications were first replaced with gardens, stadia and homes. After the war came the Boulevard Périphérique, a ring road promising seamless travel in a futuristic car-centric Paris. With the ring road came new dreams of modernity in reinvented suburbs: new towns, high-rise architecture and social housing built at record speed. Yesterday's Paris made way for tomorrow's banlieue. But the metropolitan dream was never realised. The Zone became a symbol of division: between inner and outer cities; between the bourgeois centre and the working-class immigrant outskirts; between 'us' and 'them'. The Zone, both a physical space and a powerful myth, came to crystallise the social, spatial and ethno-racial differences between Paris and the banlieue. The Zone is a brilliant anatomy of the true heart of Paris. An essential book for urbanists and historians. Autorid: Justinien Tribillon | 3 | 20,99 € | Vaata | ||

Tim Maughan, author of INFINITE DETAIL"A brilliant barn burner of a book." Kate Crawford, author of The Atlas of AI When the tech platforms promised a future of "connection," they were lying. They said their "walled gardens" would keep us safe, but those were prison walls.The platforms locked us into their systems and made us easy pickings, ripe for extraction. Twitter, Facebook and other Big Tech platforms hard to leave by design. They hold hostage the people we love, the communities that matter to us, the audiences and customers we rely on. The impossibility of staying connected to these people after you delete your account has nothing to do with technological limitations: it's a business strategy in service to commodifying your personal life and relationships.We can - we must - dismantle the tech platforms.

In Leaving the Twentieth Century, the movement is captured for the first time in its full range and diversity. McKenzie Wark traces the group's development from the bohemian Paris of the '50s to the explosive days of May '68. She introduces the group as an ensemble, revealing the work and activities of thinkers previously obscured by the reputation of founding member Guy Debord. Roaming through Europe and exploring the vital lives its members-including Constant, Asger Jorn, Michèle Bernstein, Alexander Trocchi, and Jacqueline de Jong-Wark uncovers a group riven with conflicting passions. She follows the narrative beyond 1968, to the Situationists International's disintegration and beyond: the ideas of T. J. Clark, the Fourierist utopia of Raoul Vaneigem, René Vienet's earthy situationist cinema, Gianfranco Sanguinetti's pranking of the Italian ruling class, Alice Becker-Ho's account of the anonymous language of the Romany, and Debord's late films and his surprising work as a game designer.

 Verso Books Hollow Land: Israels Architecture of Occupation GTIN: 9781804297100 Raamatud Hollow Land is a groundbreaking exploration of the political space created by Israels colonial occupation.In this journey from the deep subterranean spaces of the West Bank and Gaza to their militarized airspace, Eyal Weizman unravels Israels mechanisms of control and its transformation of the Occupied Territories into a theoretically constructed artifice, in which all natural and built features function as the weapons and ammunition with which the conflict is waged. Weizman traces the development of these ideas, from the influence of archaeology on urban planning, Ariel Sharons reconceptualization of military defense during the 1973 war, through the planning and architecture of the settlements, to contemporary Israeli discourse and practice of urban warfare and airborne targeted assassinations.In exploring Israels methods to transform the landscape and the built environment themselves into tools of domination and control, Hollow Land lays bare the political system at the heart of this complex and terrifying project of late-modern colonial occupation.

 Verso Books Females GTIN: 9781804298213 Raamatud A groundbreaking exploration of gender and desire from the Pulitzer Prizewinning essayist and critic??With a New Afterword by the AuthorABA IndieBound BestsellerEveryone is female, and everyone hates it.So begins Andrea Long Chus genre-defying investigation into sex and lies, desperate artists and reckless politics, the smothering embrace of gender and the punishing force of desire. Drawing inspiration from a forgotten play by Valerie Solanaswho wrote the SCUM Manifesto and shot Andy WarholChu aims her searing wit and surgical intuition at targets ranging from performance art to psychoanalysis, incels to porn, and even feminists like herself. Each step of the way she defends the indefensible claim that femaleness is less a biological state of women and more a fatal existential condition that afflicts the entire human racemen, women, and everyone else. In a new afterword, Chu reflects on the books reception, the growing anti-trans movement in America, and the continuing need for a radical theory of desire.

 Verso Books Now, the People! Revolution in the Twenty-First Century GTIN: 9781804297940 Raamatud In summer 2024, France stood on the brink of a far-right takeover. But the disaster was avoided thanks to a New Popular Front of parties headed by long-standing left-wing leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon. It won the most seats in the snap parliamentary elections, running on a radical, progressive, inclusive agenda, in large part inspired by Mélenchon's presidential programme. Now, the People! details his vision of revolution in our time. In this book, Mélenchon embarks on a survey of human history from its earliest moments to the crisis- ridden present. He outlines his vision for a new strategy for radical parties to reach the highest levels of government and peacefully transform the capitalist system: a citizens' revolution. In this revolution, individuals come together to form a single, politically mobilised people. They assert their power over the collective conditions of urbanised life, against the oligarchy that still controls them. Autorid: Jean-Luc Mélenchon, David Broder | 3 | 19,19 € | Vaata | ||
 Verso Books 24/7: Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep GTIN: 9781804298404 Raamatud A fascinating short book on the perils of 21st-century capitalism and its near-complete takeover of our everyday lives (New York Times Magazine) 24/7: Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep explores some of the ruinous consequences of the expanding non-stop processes of twenty-first-century capitalism. The marketplace now operates through every hour of the clock, pushing us into constant activity and eroding forms of community and political expression, damaging the fabric of everyday life. Jonathan Crary examines how this interminable non-time blurs any separation between an intensified, ubiquitous consumerism and emerging strategies of control and surveillance. He describes the ongoing management of individual attentiveness and the impairment of perception within the compulsory routines of contemporary technological culture. At the same time, he shows that human sleep, as a restorative withdrawal that is intrinsically incompatible with 24/7 capitalism, points to other more formidable and collective refusals of world-destroying patterns of growth and accumulation.

In the course of discussing all the facets of neoliberal psychopolitics fueling our contemporary crisis of freedom, Han elaborates an analytical framework that provides an original theory of Big Data and a lucid phenomenology of emotion.

Art critic, novelist, and artist John Berger brings humanity and a voice to those silenced in the political debate about who does and doesn't belong. Why does the Western world look to migrant labourers to perform the most menial tasks? What compels people to leave their homes and accept this humiliating situation? In A Seventh Man, Berger and Jean Mohr come to grips with what it is to be a migrant worker - the material circumstances and the inner experience - and, in doing so, reveal how the migrant is not so much on the margins of modern life but at its centre.

 Verso Books Racial Fictions Paperback original GTIN: 9781804299937 Raamatud A powerful critique of the myths about race that continue to shape our world.Drawing on a rich tapestry of historical analysis, literary criticism, and cultural theory, Hazel Carby interrogates how racial fictions have been constructed, maintained, and weaponized across centuries to justify systems of domination and exploitation.Traversing global geographies and temporalities, Racial Fictions reveals the interconnectedness of America's domestic racial struggles with international colonial ambitions.

Du Bois, as well as contemporary movements like Black Lives Matter, situating them within a broader narrative of resistance and survival.Carby challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truths about the persistence of white supremacy, the violence embedded in historical memory, and the silencing of marginalized voices.

 Verso Books Global Casino: How Wall Street Gambles with People and the Planet GTIN: 9781804297223 Raamatud How everything from the price of food to energy and housing costs is fixed by remote, unregulated financial markets, and what can be done about itThe global market in money housed in the offshore shadow banking system holds $217 trillion in financial assets and operates beyond the reach of any nations taxman. Asset managers, private equity firms, and pension and sovereign wealth funds scoop up the worlds savings for investment and manage them as they choose, unaccountable to politicians or the citizens who elect them.In this brilliant, accessible and incisive introduction to the murky world of globalized finance, Ann Pettifor links the activities of remote mobile financial markets to both the cost-of-living and climate crises. In an insane global casino, bankers are gambling with our future. When we foot the bill, no one but a few economists understands what has happened. The result is volatile, unpredictable and uncontrollable speculation in global commodities, pension, energy, and housing.Pettifor argues that societies and governments can take back control of the global financial system. We have done it before and can do it again. Indeed, it is imperative that we do so if we are to manage the twin threats of climate breakdown and biosphere collapse.

 Verso Books Motherdom: Breaking Free from Bad Science and Good Mother Myths New edition GTIN: 9781804297544 Raamatud Blaming, shaming and flimsy evidence: welcome to the ugly world of Good Mother mythsWhen Alex Bollen had her first baby, the fear of being a bad mother made her guilty and anxious. A researcher with twenty years experience, she went looking for answers. To her surprise the studies she looked at were exaggerated and misrepresented in the media, forming the foundation for what she calls Good Mother myths. These myths are an assortment of narratives, ideologies and stereotypes, deployed to censure mothers and blame them for every societal ill.Incensed by the way bad science is used to shame mothers, Alex Bollen decided to set the record straight. With meticulous research and keen insight, Motherdom exposes both the shaky science and unjustified prescriptions about how mothers should naturally behave. Competing visions of birth natural versus medical mean women can be criticised whatever happens, raising the odds that birth will be a damaging, even deadly, experience. Mothers are judged and belittled whether they breast- or bottle-feed their babies. Bogus claims about brain development and dodgy attachment theories mean that whatever mothers do, it is never enough.This has to stop. We must replace Good Mother myths with a realistic approach to parenting. Alex Bollen proposes motherdom, a more expansive conception of motherhood, which values and respects the different ways people raise their children. Instead of finding fault with mothers, Motherdom shifts our focus to the relationships and resources children need to flourish. Autorid: Alex Bollen | 3 | 13,89 € −0,54 € | Vaata | ||

What should architects do in the 21st century? A manifesto on what is possible in the age of climate change, AI, and inequality.Architecture, as we know it, may be coming to an end, and architects only have themselves to blame. The profession is out of touch, refusing to acknowledge the changes in the conditions that they work, or to reflect on how they go about doing their job.In Architecture Against Architecture, Reinier de Graaf sets out a 14-point manifesto of what needs to be done to revolutionize architecture for the 21st century. With wit and insight, De Graaf anatomises the future of the profession and calls for the end the era of the Staritect. How architects should unionise. Why there should be a mandatory retirement age of 67. That building should not be copyrighted. How to use AI in practice. At the same time, he looks at the economics and politics of design. He offers strategies of why we should stop building. That architects should design to adapt to climate change rather than to mitigate it. To reuse rather than demolish. And the vital question of whether an architect can refuse a project on moral grounds. This book will provoke and challenge readers. De Graaf wants to rebuild architecture from the ground up and make it relevant again. Autorid: Reinier De Graaf | 3 | 20,89 € | Vaata | ||

 Verso Books Cultural Marxism Conspiracy: Why the Right Blames the Frankfurt School for the Decline of the West GTIN: 9781804296967 Raamatud "Cultural Marxism" is one of the far right's favorite buzzwords. But despite its currency, the meaning and origins of the term are rarely investigated. This book uncovers the bizarre story of the cult leaders, right-wing intellectuals, and White House officials who believe a coterie of left-wing scholars and students is plotting to undermine Western civilization. Drawing on years of archival research and using the tools of critical theory, A.J.A. Woods reveals how a group of German thinkers known as the Frankfurt School was recast as the sinister orchestra-tors of a global conspiracy. Instead of simply debunking this conspiracy theory, Woods offers a sharp analysis and critique of the political movements that have declared war on all that passes for Cultural Marxism in the US, the UK, and Brazil. Only when we understand the practices and weaknesses of those reactionaries committed to fighting this illusory threat-a conflict causing real-world damage-can we effectively resist. This is an essential book for anyone seeking to understand the ideological currents shaping politics in the twenty-first century. Autorid: A.J.A. Woods | 3 | 17,99 € −0,81 € | Vaata | ||
