Egalitarian Rights Recognition

A Political Theory of Human Rights

By: Matt Hann

This book takes a distinctive and innovative approach to a relatively under-explored question, namely: Why do we have human rights? Much political discourse simply proceeds from the idea that humans have rights because they are human without seriously interrogating this notion. Egalitarian Rights Recognition offers an account of how human rights are created and how they may be seen to be legitimate: rights are created through social recognition. By combining readings of 19th Century English philosopher T.H. Green with 20th Century political theorist Hannah Arendt, the author constructs a new theory of the social recognition of rights. He challenges both the standard ‘natural rights’ approach and also the main accounts of the social recognition of rights which tend to portray social recognition as settled norms or established ways of acting. In contrast, Hann puts forward a 10-point account of the dynamic and contingent social recognition of human rights, which emphasises the importance of meaningful socio-economic equality.

The Seven Years War

A Transatlantic History

By: Matt Schumann,Karl W. Schweizer

The Seven Years War has been described as the first global conflict in history. It engulfed the Euro-Atlantic world from 1756 to 1763, and engaged the energies of European cabinets as never before. More than previous conflicts, the Seven Years War involved a variety of approaches to war, and taxed the military, material and moral resources of the powers involved. Drawing on a diverse array of archival, printed primary and secondary sources, The Seven Years War: A Transatlantic History covers the war’s origins, its conduct on land and at sea, its effects on logistics and finance, its interactions with domestic politics, its influence on international relations and its approach to peace. The book highlights the role of personality, alongside the enduring importance of communication, misperception and understanding. In so doing, it endeavours not merely to chronicle the war’s events, but to situate them in the context of mid-eighteenth century warfare, finance, politics and diplomacy. The Seven Years War will be of great interest to students of the European history, American history, maritime history, diplomatic and military history.

A Blessing and a Curse

Oil, Politics, and Morality in Bolivarian Venezuela

A Blessing and a Curse

Oil, Politics, and Morality in Bolivarian Venezuela

By: Matt Wilde

A Blessing and a Curse examines the lived experience of political change, moral uncertainty, and economic crisis amid Venezuela's controversial Bolivarian Revolution. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted in an urban barrio over the course of a decade, Matt Wilde argues that everyday life in this period was intimately shaped by a critical contradiction: that in their efforts to capture a larger portion of oil money and distribute it more widely among the population, the governments of Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro pursued policies that ultimately entrenched Venezuela in the very position of dependency they sought to overcome. Offering a new synthesis between anthropological work on energy, politics, and morality, the book explores how the use of oil money to fund the revolution's social programs and political reforms produced profound cultural anxieties about the contaminating effects of petroleum revenues in everyday settings. Tracing how these anxieties rippled out into community life, family networks, and local politics, Wilde shows how questions about how to live a good life came to be intimately shaped by Venezuela's contradictory relationship with oil. In doing so, he brings a vital perspective to contemporary debates about energy transitions by proposing a new way of thinking about the political and moral economies of natural resources in postcolonial settings.

Recruited

The First Adventure of the New Guardians

By: Matt Slimming

We all have gifts and talents. Some are obvious, but some are hidden and take a while to show themselves. In Recruited, each of three siblings cautiously start to perceive that they may have a special talent. They are propelled on a journey which requires that they develop their gifts to supernatural levels. Vicious and angry animals, Yetis, Pirates and a storm at sea all threaten their very lives. Only with the powers of Light, Speed and Strength will they be able to survive the battles that lie ahead. In the process they uncover a life-changing truth about the animal kingdom. They learn that for centuries there has been an unseen war going on all over the earth: the war between the Clean and Unclean animals. On occasions this war has drawn humans into battle, sometimes unknowingly. There are even acts of violence and complicated strategies of defense going on right beneath their own noses, in their own subdivision. Everything that these children have known about their surroundings will be turned on its head. Every few generations, the Clean animals are able to recruit a human to help them in their quest to avoid annihilation. Can one of these children, equipped with their own amazing gift, join this ancient battle? If they become part of the struggle, will they survive in this strange new existence? One thing is for sure: after this adventure, the world around them will never seem boring again.
