Reimagine Hong Kong - A Hong Kong Memoir

by Jia Jia

3,95€ + 10% CARD

 CO-CREATING HONG KONG In Reimagine Hong Kong, Jia Jia explores the cultural identity of China's special administrative region, which began to emerge in the mid-twentieth century during its time as a British colony. His critique delves into the contradictions and dichotomies that have defined Hong Kong, weaving together history, philosophy, sociology, and economics. Jia Jia believes it is time to take a long, reflective look at his hometown, two and a half decades after its return to China. He started writing this memoir during the last wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2022. His analysis of real estate, urbanism, popular culture, linguistics, literature, and food culture offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the global financial centre's past, present, and future. Reimagine Hong Kong addresses three fundamental questions: Does Hong Kong have an "identity crisis"? Why has it been labelled a "cultural desert"? Has Hong Kong fostered its own "meaninglessness" and "tastelessness"? This compelling thesis reimagines the metropolis "from a distance" while addressing global universal issues through its local culture. The author takes readers on an unforgettable journey from London's theatres to New York's skyscrapers, Tokyo's nano homes, and back to vernacular heritage architecture, neon signs, and tea restaurants, alongside various social phenomena. This anthology is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the unprecedented conflicts of the early twenty-first century, shaped by geopolitics and ideologies, including the "woke" movement. Accompanied by a captivating photograph by Wong Wei-him, each chapter serves as a study on the cross-cultural impacts of the digital revolution, postmodernity, postcolonialism, and late capitalism on social structure, human behaviour, aesthetics, and taste. Jia Jia concludes by reflecting on futurism and posthumanism.

Gaza'S Gravediggers - An Inquiry Into Corruption In High Places

by Norman Finkelstein

~~9,59€~~ 7,67€ 20% OFF

 The world’s leading forensic scholar exposes international duplicity and complicity in the Gaza genocide.
Methodically debunking the claims of its apologists, Norman Finkelstein has for decades laid bare the cynical politics behind Israel’s high-tech killing sprees in Gaza.
Since October 7, 2023, he has been a unique voice in not just condemning Israel’s onslaught but also providing original and acute insight into it.
Now, in Gaza’s Gravediggers, Finkelstein turns his critical lens to the global enablers of genocide—those who distort truth and manipulate justice as they prostitute themselves to power and privilege.
With meticulous research and razor-sharp analysis, he systematically dissects and dismantles the most influential arguments defending Israel’s actions. He exposes how a United Nations special representative lent credence to an Israeli smear campaign, how officials in the world’s highest court perverted international law in Israel’s defence, and how even Israel’s severe critics colluded in misrepresenting genocide as a war.
This is more than a book; it is a searing indictment of those who abused their authority to whitewash an unfolding horror. Gaza’s Gravediggers serves as a clarion call for accountability, reminding those in power: the world is watching, and History will not forgive. “It will not be forgotten,” Finkelstein admonishes. “It will no longer be business as usual, if you choose to do the Devil’s work.”

by Belal Abu-Alabbas

~~125,88€~~ 100,70€ 20% OFF

 Muhammad ibn Isma?il al-Bukhari (d. 256/870) stands as one of the most distinguished figures in Islamic intellectual history. His magnum opus, the Sahih, is revered as the most authoritative collection of Prophetic traditions in Sunni Islam and is the most cited book in Islamic history.

Al-Bukhari’s legacy endures, shaping Islamic scholarship and devotion to this day.This pioneering critical study offers the first comprehensive examination of al-Bukhari’s life, intellectual trajectory and the socio-political landscape that influenced his scholarship.

Providing both historical depth and analytical rigour, it is an essential contribution to the study of Islamic legal and hadith traditions.

A History Of Timelessness - Constructing Authenticity At The Ise Shrines

by Jordan Sand

~~33,56€~~ 26,85€ 20% OFF

 Every twenty years for over a millennium, the Ise shrines have been rebuilt from the ground up, and hundreds of shrine treasures replaced. At Ise, the aspiration to timelessness that is the essence of all monuments has been pursued through endless repetition rather than construction in durable materials. Spanning from Ise's prehistoric beginnings to the present, A History of Timelessness explores the manifold circulation of goods this massive enterprise has engendered, as well as the political and ideological purposes the ritual rebuilding has served. In the late nineteenth century, the state took control of the shrines and recast them as an embodiment of modern imperial power. Yet, rather than resolving their status, nationalization awakened new anxieties around Ise's permanence and ephemerality and new contests over shrine buildings and materials. Through an exploration of Ise's tumultuous history, Jordan Sand rethinks the temporality of monuments and the materiality of the state.

In The Lion'S Den - An Eyewitness Account Of Washington'S Battle With Syria

by Andrew Tabler

~~12,88€~~ 10,30€ 20% OFF

 A key player and an unrelenting obstacle in the Middle East peace process, Syria has long been a thorn in Washington's side when it comes to forging strategic alliances with powers in the region. But only after the events of 9/11 and Damascus's staunch opposition to the War in Iraq did the U.S. government begin a secret campaign to topple President Bashar al-Assad's regime and bring Syria into the Western political orbit. Author Andrew Tabler was both a witness to and participant in the events of this covert conflict. No other Western journalists or academics were based in Damascus during this time, and as co-owner of what was then Syria's only English-language publication, Tabler was not only watched and censored but courted by the Syrian government in an attempt to influence his stories to the international community. He gained unique access to the upper echelons of power like no other journalist before him, even accompanying the Syrian president on a state visit to China. In the Lion's Den provides a rare glimpse into the machinations of one of the world's most baffling political systems. The book vividly captures Tabler's behind-the-scenes experiences as well as the story of Syria itself post 9/11 and Washington's attempts to craft a "New Middle East." Tabler's astute political analysis of the goings-on around him is seamlessly interwoven with a devastating critique of U.S. foreign policy. He examines the perverse effects of the neoconservatives' strategy, asking what went wrong, why the secret war ultimately failed, and where Washington needs to go from here to achieve a new relationship with this pivotal Middle Eastern power.

Armenians And Young Turks - The Armenian Revolutionary Federation And Constitutionalism In The Ottoman Empire, 1895-1908

by Garabet K. Moumdjian

~~107,33€~~ 85,86€ 20% OFF

 What was the nature of the relationship between the Young Turks, whose members would go on to form and lead the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) which would carry out the Armenian Genocide beginning in 1915, and the Armenian revolutionaries of the late Ottoman Empire? Based on rich Armenian, Ottoman, British and other archival documents and periodicals, this book reveals the complex dynamics and relations that Armenian organizations, most importantly the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF), maintained with the Young Turks between 1895-1908, when relations were transformed from mutual suspicion to closer collaboration. Put in the context of the worsening conditions for Ottoman-Armenians in the eastern provinces of the empire, the book reveals the internal debates of the ARF about collaboration with Young Turk cadres in an effort to improve conditions for their people, as well as the role that Armenian revolutionaries played in CUP calculations and aims for toppling the regime of Sultan Abdulhamid. The book thus reveals the complex and gradual development of relations between the groups before the outright anti-Armenian policies of the CUP would culminate in the Armenian Genocide. It also reveals the ARF's commitment to the constitutional project and the difficult choices it faced in pursuing those aims.

Justice And Islamic Law - Mazalim Courts And Legal Reform

by Jonathan A.C. Brown

46,02€ + 10% CARD

 What do you do when divine law and the justice demanded by your conscience clash? Muslims have wrestled with this problem since the earliest caliphates. The mazalim courts, dating back to the eighth century, were the answer: courts where any subject could appeal directly to an Islamic ruler regarding any matter of justice. Mazalim courts, which were not bound by the rulings of an established school of Islamic law, could address crises in authority and order that Shariah courts could not. Bestselling author Jonathan A.C. Brown unveils the history of mazalim courts, analyses the political, legal and theological thought of its tradition and contends that mazalim courts did not oppose or transcend Shariah. Mazalim courts allowed the state to step in and provide substantive justice when procedural justice failed its subjects.

Armenian Refugees In French Mandate Syria - Statelessness And Nation-Building In The Middle East

by Victoria Abrahamyan

~~101,36€~~ 81,09€ 20% OFF

 In the aftermath of the First World War, the Armenian Genocide, and the Turkish War of Independence, Syria became host to thousands of Armenian refugees. In this comprehensive history covering the period from 1920 to 1948, Victoria Abrahamyan foregrounds the experience of the Armenian refugees in the Syrian Jazira as they navigated competing state-building efforts led by the French mandatory power, Syrian nationalists, and Soviet Armenia. The book reveals the refugees' agency amid internal conflicts and diverse loyalties. It sheds light on the intricate power struggles over their status and belonging- particularly through competing French and Soviet post-war refugee settlement schemes-in a critical frontier between Western imperialist powers, the Soviet bloc, and Turkey. Using Armenian, Arabic, Russian, and French language sources, the book explores how the Armenian refugee community responded to the rise of Arab nationalism in Syria, complicating simplistic sectarian interpretations of their place and reception in interwar Syria.- By situating this history within the broader context of Armenian experiences in the Eastern Mediterranean and the role of refugees and displaced populations in state building in the post-war Middle East in general, this study offers essential reading for students and scholars of Armenian and Middle Eastern history alike.

Pizza Before We Die - An Eyewitness Account In Gaza

by Hassan Kanafani

~~9,59€~~ 7,67€ 20% OFF

 A heart-wrenching personal account of the ongoing devastation in Gaza by an ordinary citizen who bears witness to the undoing of his community and homeland
The human tragedy unfolding in Gaza has been made all the more tragic by the widespread denial and apathy expressed by much of the rest of the world. Here is an urgent first-hand account of life and death in Gaza, written not by a war correspondent, but an ordinary citizen whose life was upended when the genocide began.
In the midst of the chaos, Hassan began posting about his daily experiences on Reddit. Three activists, moved by his words, started collecting his posts without a clear plan—only the conviction that his story needed to be seen and the hope that somehow, it might help raise funds for him. By chance, those posts found their way to award-winning author Yasuko Thanh, who helped Hassan frame them for a book.
Hassan's missives are a vivid, heartbreaking account of war and its toll—on families, on children, on innocent civilians. These are stories of hunger, survival, and death. These are stories that demand to be heard. And yet, stories like these are not being told: Mainstream media has largely remained silent. Foreign journalists are barred from Gaza. Local journalists are being killed. In this vacuum, Hassan's voice breaks through out of the darkness and into the light.
Pizza Before We Die is literary journalism at its rawest and most urgent—clear eyed, unflinching, and deeply humane. Hassan captures the unspeakable horror of the tragedy in Gaza with restraint and precision, never sensationalizing, always bearing witness. It is a work of raw power and emotion and a reminder that in the midst of chaos and tragedy, our shared humanity remains intact.
In addition to editing this book, Yasuko Thanh has written a foreword that provides context for Hassan's powerful story.
A portion of proceeds from the sale of Pizza Before We Die will be donated to Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières.

by Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib

~~17,61€~~ 14,09€ 20% OFF

 For almost twenty years, Hamas ruled Gaza and prepared for a battle that it knew it could not win. But the group made a cold calculation: its path to victory rested on sacrificing the lives and livelihoods of the 2.2 million people of Gaza.

He reflects on his and his family's experiences, and on how Hamas's destructive leadership has set back the hopes and prospects of his people. Hamas and Its Two Million Hostages provides crucial insights into the state of Hamas following its devastating war with Israel, including an assessment of the future of the group and how to ensure it can no longer control the people of Gaza. Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib is a Gazan writer and advocate, founder of Realign for Palestine and a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council based in Washington, DC. He writes analysis and commentary for publications such as The Atlantic and Foreign Policy and appears regularly in US and international media. He can be found at @afalkhatib.

Empire By Law - The Ottoman Origins Of The Mandate System In The Middle East

by Aimee M. Genell

~~38,40€~~ 30,72€ 20% OFF

 The Ottoman Empire long used flexible administrative arrangements to govern its vast domains. Starting in the 1830s, however, European intervention in Ottoman affairs resulted in the emergence of a new type of negotiated province. The "privileged provinces," which included Egypt and Mount Lebanon, enjoyed levels of administrative autonomy that were unparalleled not only within the Ottoman domains but also in late nineteenth-century imperial systems more broadly. Empire by Law reveals the importance of the Ottoman Empire’s autonomous provinces, both within the empire and in the history of international relations. Aimee M. Genell argues that these provinces became the key arena in which possibilities for sovereignty and imperial control were negotiated and tested in the Middle East. She traces how the Ottoman state turned to international law to maintain control over parts of the empire that European powers attempted to wrest from it. Genell demonstrates that the concept of autonomy provided an important alternative model for imperial organization among the empire’s diverse subjects, even as successive Ottoman governments tried to curtail it. She argues that the Ottoman model of autonomy became the foundation for the mandate system established in the Middle East after World War I, with lasting and catastrophic consequences for the region. Bridging legal, international, and imperial history, this book shows how Ottoman practices of governance shaped the Middle Eastern political order.

Arabia Incognita - Dispatches From Yemen And The Gulf

~~9,59€~~ 7,67€ 20% OFF

 Yemen is an intriguing, strategically located country that is the perennial “poor relation” of the wealthy oil monarchies of the Arabian Peninsula and has been plagued by deadly conflict since early 2015. In 2011, it saw a broad eruption of the mass protests associated with the “Arab Spring.” But four years later, that popular movement was largely over-run by a series of deadly conflicts, stoked from outside by a lengthy, lethal military intervention led by neighboring Saudi Arabia. The Saudis and their allies pounded Yemen’s major cities with billions of dollars’ worth of advanced bombs and missiles—most of them US-supplied. Catastrophe ensued for Yemen’s already impoverished population of 27 million. In large areas of the country, meanwhile, a resilient branch of Al-Qaeda had also sunk deep roots. Arabia Incognita helps readers understand Yemen’s unfolding crisis by tracing the country’s modern history from the strong anti-imperial movement of the 1960s through the present complex of conflicts. Reporting at-the-time and mostly from on-the-spot, the book’s contributors focus on Yemen’s own social/political dynamics. They also explore parallel disharmonies in the neighboring Gulf petro-kingdoms and the roles played by wider pan-Arab movements and various US military and paramilitary bodies. The "dispatches" in this anthology were originally published in Middle East Report. They were chosen by renowned Yemen expert Dr. Sheila Carapico, who also contributes an Introduction and other guides for readers. Arabia Incognita is published in collaboration with the Middle East Research and Information Project (MERIP), which has published Middle East Report since 1971.

History Of Slavery And Emancipation In Iran, 1800-1929

by Behnaz A. Mirzai

~~17,81€~~ 14,25€ 20% OFF

 The first history of slavery in this key Middle Eastern country and how it shaped the nation's unique character. Slavery in the Middle East is a growing field of study, but the history of slavery in a key country, Iran, has never before been written. This history extends to Africa in the west and India in the east, to Russia and Turkmenistan in the north, and to the Arab states in the south. As the slave trade between Iran and these regions shifted over time, it transformed the nation and helped forge its unique culture and identity. Thus, a history of Iranian slavery is crucial to understanding the character of the modern nation. Drawing on extensive archival research in Iran, Tanzania, England, and France, as well as fieldwork and interviews in Iran, Behnaz A. Mirzai offers the first history of slavery in modern Iran from the early nineteenth century to emancipation in the mid-twentieth century. She investigates how foreign military incursion, frontier insecurity, political instability, and economic crisis altered the patterns of enslavement, as well as the ethnicity of the slaves themselves. Mirzai's interdisciplinary analysis illuminates the complex issues surrounding the history of the slave trade and the process of emancipation in Iran, while also giving voice to social groups that have never been studied: enslaved Africans and Iranians. Her research builds a clear case that the trade in slaves was inexorably linked to the authority of the state. During periods of greater decentralization, slave trading increased, while periods of greater governmental autonomy saw more freedom and peace. "This is a major contribution to the study of enslavement in Iran, which will doubtlessly become a must-read for any future studies of Middle Eastern and Islamic enslavement and abolition, as well as for any work on Iranian history in general." Ehud R. Toledano, Tel Aviv University, author of As If Silent and Absent: Bonds of Enslavement in the Islamic Middle East"While this book will be revelatory to scholars of Iran, it also promises to engage with theoretical trends in the study of slavery elsewhere. It frames many research questions broadly to engage with scholars of slavery in other Muslim lands, as well as slavery elsewhere." Kamran Scot Aghaie, University of Texas at Austin, coeditor of Rethinking Iranian Nationalism and Modernity
