Assistimos na era moderna ao aparecimento de indivíduos que controlaram um conjunto aterrador de instrumentos de controlo, persuasão e morte. Sociedades inteiras foram reconfiguradas e guerras foram combatidas, muitas vezes no desrespeito cruel pelas regras mais elementares. Na cúpula dessas sociedades estavam líderes cujas personalidades de alguma forma lhes possibilitaram fazer o que quisessem. O novo livro de Ian Kershaw é uma tentativa cativante, lúcida e provocadora de entender esses líderes, quer operassem a nível global (Lenine, Estaline, Hitler, Mussolini), quer tivessem um impacto sobretudo nacional (Tito e Franco). Que tinham estes líderes, e que tempos foram aqueles em que viveram, que lhes permitiu terem um poder irrestrito e mortífero? E o que suscitou o fim dessa era? Num grupo contrastante de personalidades (Churchill, De Gaulle, Adenauer, Gorbatchev, Thatcher e Kohl), Kershaw emprega as suas excepcionais qualidades para reflectir sobre como estas outras figuras tão diferentes chegaram ao poder.

A obra se propõe a contribuir para o debate sobre a crise das democracias a partir do seu diálogo com o passado, não exatamente sobre suas causas mais diretas e de curto prazo, como a crise financeira de 2008, o aumento das desigualdades e a falta de fé no futuro ou mesmo a questão dos imigrantes e o descrédito dos partidos tradicionais, por exemplo, mas de suas questões históricas e de mais longo prazo relacionadas aos regimes de tipo fascista em países como a Itália de Mussolini, Portugal de Salazar, a Espanha de Franco e o Brasil de Vargas. Para tanto, foram aqui reunidos estudos inéditos de importantes pesquisadores de instituições brasileiras, portuguesas, espanholas, italianas e argentinas, tais como PUCRS, Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV), Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF), Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC), Universidade de Coimbra, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Universidade de Vigo, Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, Universidade Complutense de Madri, Universidade de Barcelona, Universidade de Modena, Universidade de Bolonha e Universidade General San Martin, todos filiados à Rede Internacional de Estudos dos Fascismos, Autoritarismos, Totalitarismos e Transições à Democracia (REFAT), que desde 2005 se dedica a apoiar a investigação, o ensino a divulgação e a aplicação do conhecimento científico sobre essas temáticas, sendo seu último encontro realizado em Porto Alegre no ano de 2022. A obra está dividida em 3 partes: a primeira – Crise Democrática – reúne os textos de Luciano Aronne de Abreu e João Paulo Avelãs Nunes, que se propõem a pensar historicamente sobre o presente das democracias e a busca atual de soluções populistas e autoritárias ou ditatoriais; a segunda – História e Memória – reúne os estudos de Matteo Pasetti, Denise Rollemberg, Alberto Pena Rodriguez, Pau Casanellas e Maria Victoria Martins Rodriguez, que se propõem a discutir questões relacionadas às diferentes memórias das ditaduras fascistas, exposições e museus; a terceira parte – Estudos de Casos – inclui os trabalhos de Enrique Clemente Yanes, Alfonso Botti, Ruy Farias, Luís Reis Torgal, Antônio Rafael Amaro, Pedro Aires Oliveira, Fábio Gentile e Américo Freire sobre diferentes questões de ordem política, social, econômica e colonial relacionadas aos regimes italiano, português, espanhol e brasileiro, de forma particular.

From one of Britain's most distinguished historians and the bestselling author of Hitler, this is the definitive history of a divided Europe, from the aftermath of the Second World War to the present. After the overwhelming horrors of the first half of the 20th century, described by Ian Kershaw in his previous book as having gone 'to Hell and back', the years from 1950 to 2017 brought peace and relative prosperity to most of Europe. Enormous economic improvements transformed the continent. The catastrophic era of the world wars receded into an ever more distant past, though its long shadow continued to shape mentalities. Europe was now a divided continent, living under the nuclear threat in a period intermittently fraught with anxiety. Europeans experienced a 'roller-coaster ride', both in the sense that they were flung through a series of events which threatened disaster, but also in that they were no longer in charge of their own destinies: for much of the period the USA and USSR effectively reduced Europeans to helpless figures whose fates were dictated to them by the Cold War. There were striking successes - the Soviet bloc melted away, dictatorships vanished and Germany was successfully reunited. But accelerating globalization brought new fragilities. The impact of interlocking crises after 2008 was the clearest warning to Europeans that there was no guarantee of peace and stability. In this remarkable book, Ian Kershaw has created a grand panorama of the world we live in and where it came from. Drawing on examples from all across the continent, Roller-Coaster will make us all rethink Europe and what it means to be European.

Britain, as the most powerful of the European victors of World War One, had a unique responsibility to maintain the peace in the aftermath of the Treaty of Versailles. The outbreak of a second, even more catastrophic war in 1939 has therefore always raised painful questions about Britain's failure to deal with Nazism. Could some other course of action have destroyed Hitler when he was still weak? In this highly disturbing new book, Ian Kershaw examines this crucial issue. He concentrates on the figure of Lord Londonderry - grandee, patriot, cousin of Churchill and the government minister responsible for the RAF at a crucial point in its existence. Londonderry's reaction to the rise of Hitler-to pursue friendship with the Nazis at all costs-raises fundamental questions about Britain's role in the 1930s and whether in practice there was ever any possibility of preventing Hitler's leading Europe once again into war.

When Brazil's 'golden age' began, the Portuguese were securely established on the coast and immediate hinterland. European rivals - Spanish, French, Dutch - had been repelled, and expansion into the vast interior had begun. By the end of the 'golden age', bandleirantes, missionaries, miners, planters and ranchers had penetrated deep into the continent. In 1750, by the Treaty of Madrid, Spain recognized Brazil's new frontiers. The colony had come to occupy an area slightly greater than that of the ten Spanish colonies in South America put together. Despite conflicts, the fusion of Portuguese, Amerindian and African into a Brazilian entity had begun; and the explosive expansion of Brazil had laid the foundation for the independence that followed in 1822. Professor Boxer deals not only with the turbulent events of the 'golden age' but analyses the economic and administrative changes of the period. He examines the relationships of officials with colonists, of settlers with Indians, of colony with mother country. Professor Boxer's classic study of a critical period in the growth of Brazil (the world's fifth largest country) has long been out of print. It is here reissued with numerous illustrations.

An erudite scholar and an elegant writer, Gordon S. Wood has won both numerous awards and a broad readership since the 1969 publication of his widely acclaimed The Creation of the American Republic. With The Purpose of the Past, Wood has essentially created a history of American history, assessing the current state of history vis-à-vis the work of some of its most important scholars-doling out praise and scorn with equal measure. In this wise, passionate defense of history's ongoing necessity, Wood argues that we cannot make intelligent decisions about the future without understanding our past. Wood offers a master's insight into what history-at its best-can be and reflects on its evolving and essential role in our culture.

Revolution Of Everyday Life written by Raoul Vaneigem and has been published by PM Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2012-10-05 with Philosophy categories.
Originally published just months before the May 1968 upheavals in France, Raoul Vaneigem’s The Revolution of Everyday Life offered a lyrical and aphoristic critique of the “society of the spectacle” from the point of view of individual experience. Whereas Debord’s masterful analysis of the new historical conditions that triggered the uprisings of the 1960s armed the revolutionaries of the time with theory, Vaneigem’s book described their feelings of desperation directly, and armed them with “formulations capable of firing point-blank on our enemies.” “I realise,” writes Vaneigem in his introduction, “that I have given subjective will an easy time in this book, but let no one reproach me for this without first considering the extent to which the objective conditions of the contemporary world advance the cause of subjectivity day after day.” Vaneigem names and defines the alienating features of everyday life in consumer society: survival rather than life, the call to sacrifice, the cultivation of false needs, the dictatorship of the commodity, subjection to social roles, and above all the replacement of God by the Economy. And in the second part of his book, “Reversal of Perspective,” he explores the countervailing impulses that, in true dialectical fashion, persist within the deepest alienation: creativity, spontaneity, poetry, and the path from isolation to communication and participation. For “To desire a different life is already that life in the making.” And “fulfillment is expressed in the singular but conjugated in the plural.” The present English translation was first published by Rebel Press of London in 1983. This new edition of The Revolution of Everyday Life has been reviewed and corrected by the translator and contains a new preface addressed to English-language readers by Raoul Vaneigem. The book is the first of several translations of works by Raoul Vaneigem that PM Press plans to publish in uniform volumes. Vaneigem’s classic work is to be followed by The Knight, the Lady, the Devil, and Death (2003) and The Inhumanity of Religion (2000).

Robespierre’s justification of the Terror in the French Revolution Robespierre’s defence of the French Revolution remains one of the most powerful and unnerving justifications for political violence ever written. It has an extraordinary resonance in a world obsessed with terrorism and appalled by the language of its proponents. Yet today the French Revolution is celebrated as the event which gave birth to a nation built on the principles of Enlightenment. So how should a contemporary audience approach Robespierre’s vindication of revolutionary terror? Žižek’s introduction analyzes these contradictions with a prodigious breadth of analogy and reference.
