“Absurdistan is not just a hilarious novel, but a record of a particular peak in the history of human folly. No one is more capable of dealing with the transition from the hell of socialism to the hell of capitalism in Eastern Europe than Shteyngart, the great-great grandson of one Nikolai Gogol and the funniest foreigner alive.” –Aleksandar Hemon From the critically acclaimed, bestselling author of The Russian Debutante’s Handbook comes the uproarious and poignant story of one very fat man and one very small country Meet Misha Vainberg, aka Snack Daddy, a 325-pound disaster of a human being, son of the 1,238th-richest man in Russia, proud holder of a degree in multicultural studies from Accidental College, USA (don’t even ask), and patriot of no country save the great City of New York. Poor Misha just wants to live in the South Bronx with his hot Latina girlfriend, but after his gangster father murders an Oklahoma businessman in Russia, all hopes of a U.S. visa are lost. Salvation lies in the tiny, oil-rich nation of Absurdistan, where a crooked consular officer will sell Misha a Belgian passport. But after a civil war breaks out between two competing ethnic groups and a local warlord installs hapless Misha as minister of multicultural affairs, our hero soon finds himself covered in oil, fighting for his life, falling in love, and trying to figure out if a normal life is still possible in the twenty-first century. With the enormous success of The Russian Debutante’s Handbook, Gary Shteyngart established himself as a central figure in today’s literary world—“one of the most talented and entertaining writers of his generation,” according to The New York Observer. In Absurdistan, he delivers an even funnier and wiser literary performance. Misha Vainberg is a hero for the new century, a glimmer of humanity in a world of dashed hopes.

Ein Blick in die Kristallkugel enthüllt eine merkwürdige Welt der Absurditäten, die durch zwei Konglomerate Absurdistan und Utopia vertreten ist. Absurdistan ist vom unaufhaltsamen Fortschritt besessen. Es verrichtet wunderbare Dinge. Utopia ist rückständig. Es träumt von der Vergangenheit. In böser Absicht, das friedliche Leben von Absurdistan zu stören, terrorisiert der jeweilige Bin Laden Absurdistan. Präsident Push, der Absurdistan regiert, weiss, was er zu tun hat. Er schickt die modernsten Waffen nach Utopia, um das Böse zu treffen. Es passiert so viel in Absurdistan und vieles kommt uns irgendwie bekannt vor, dass sich beim näheren Hinsehen die Frage stellt: Ist es nur die Zukunft oder leben wir bereits in Absurdistan? Sie sind an der Reihe, diese Frage nach dem Durchlesen dieses Buches zu beantworten. Die Beschäftigung mit Satire ist untypisch für Vadim Nikolajew. Er befasst sich mit Innovations- und Zukunftsforschung mit dem Schwerpunkt nachhaltige Entwicklung. Der Abschluss des elitären Moskauer Staatlichen Instituts für Internationale Beziehungen, die Forschung an Akademien der Wissenschaft, Promotion und Habilitation in Berlin sowie die Mitgliedschaft an renommierten Organisationen verschafften ihm Kompetenzen, welche er in zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen mit seinen Lesern teilt. Diesmal greift er zum Mittel der Satire, um Bewusstsein bezüglich gewaltiger Herausforderungen der Zukunft zu schärfen.

This illuminating book offers a timely assessment of the development and proliferation of precursor crimes of terrorism, exploring the functions and implications of these expanding offences in different jurisdictions. In response to new modes and sources of terrorism, attempts to pre-empt potential attacks through precursor offences have emerged. This book examines not only the meanings and effectiveness of this approach, but also the challenges posed to human rights and social and economic development.

The purpose of this book is to honour the influential and wide-ranging work of Professor Clive Walker. It explores Professor Walker's influence from three perspectives. Firstly, it provides a historical reflection upon the development of the law and policy in relation to counter-terrorism and miscarriages of justice since the 1970s. This historical perspective, which is often overlooked, is particularly timely 17 years after 9/11 as trends become clearer and historical perspective even more valuable. So too with miscarriages of justice: while there was considerable public and political scrutiny following high-profile miscarriages such as the Birmingham Six, Guildford Four, and others, in the early 1990s, today there is much less scrutiny, despite significant concern relating to issues such as legal aid and access to justice increasing the potential (if not likelihood) for miscarriages to occur. By including a critical historical perspective, this book enables us to learn lessons from the past and to minimise contemporary risks of miscarriages of justice. Secondly, this book provides a critical analysis of the law and policy as it stands today, and its future trajectory. Applying Walker's theoretical and analytical contributions to the field, the authors focus on pressing contemporary concerns, identifying lacunae where relevant, as well as the possible, probable and preferable future trends. Finally, the book celebrates and recognises the significant contributions by Walker, with each chapter built around one or more of Walker's key works.

Das Coronavirus hat die ganze Welt in einem Covid-19-Wimpernschlag zum Stillstand gebracht. Die Journalistin Lea Rass und ihre international besetzte "Nachrichtengruppe" heften sich mit kriminalistischem Spürsinn, gesundem Menschenverstand und einer Prise Humor an die Fersen der mysteriösen chinesischen Erkältungsmikrobe, um herauszufinden, wie es ihr gelingen konnte, fast die gesamte Menschheit in eine seltsame Trance zu versetzen. Der Corona-Intensivkurs hat Erfolg, der Blick hinter die Kulissen der Pandemie offenbart eine geheimnisvolle, unvorstellbare Inszenierung. Schritt für Schritt setzt sich das Puzzle zusammen. Doch wer hat eigentlich das Drehbuch für diese Show des Jahrhunderts geschrieben?
