Syriza`s victory in the recent Greek general election has shaken the foundations of the Western political establishment & has given new hope to the millions suffering the austerity measures imposed by the European Troika. Many people are discussing how this has happened & what it is about Greece that has created such a centre of radicalism? Written by Finance Minister & chief economics spokesman for Syriza Euclid Tsakalotos & economist Christos Laskos, Crucible of Resistance argues that Greece`s exceptionalism is largely a myth. The blame game that has been played by the EU powers is an ideological tool used to shift attention from the realities of both European & global capitalist economic order. By alienating an entire nation of people, the Troika has revealed the internal contradictions of the modern neoliberal establishment, as well as the inadequacies of the earlier social-democratic Keynesian regime. Tsakalotos & Laskos suggest that there is very little that differentiates Greece from other countries struggling under austerity, & that parties such as Syriza could usher in a new, democratic & socialist era across the continent. ...

One year shaped the world we know today. This is the page-turning story of the pivotal changes which were forged in 1948. Two-&-a-half years after the end of the second conflict to engulf the civilised world in twenty years, & the defeat of the Axis forces of Germany, Italy & Japan, this pivotal time would plunge the world into a state of Cold War between the two superpowers that had filled the vacuum of Adolf Hitler: the brooding menace of Joseph Stalin`s Soviet Russia & the Western powers now under new leadership of Harry Truman of America, De Gaulle of France & Britain`s Clement Atlee. The British Empire would begin its quick demise beginning with the separation of the Sub Continent & the birth of the Indian & Pakistan republics, which would ultimately result in the repatriation of millions of peoples, wholesale slaughter of ethnic minorities, & the demise of Britain as a global superpower as South Africa, & other colonies around the globe vied for freedom. Finally, 1948 would mark the end of a long & vicious civil war in China as the communists finally prevailed. The world order would never be the same again. This will be a dynamic narrative, enabling the reader to leap across the globe from one epic tale to the next
- encountering historical figures such as Winston Churchill, Harry S. Truman, Ghandi, Mao Tse Tung, &, David Ben Gurian & providing a clear road map of how the world today was forged in this pivotal year. Praise for Jonathan Fenby: ` Brave & ambitious.` Times Literary Supplement ` Fenby writes with the authority of experience. There is much to enjoy in his fluently written history & much to learn from it too.` Literary Review `[ Fenby] is at his best when he teases out the tensions between the republican unifying ideal & the enduring divisions that periodically emerge.` The Economist ` Fenby positively gallops through a comprehensive account of France from 1789 until now. He has not selected only the juicy bits... He fills in what happens in between so that the narrative is complete. ` Independent

Kathy is a writer. Kathy is getting married. It`s the summer of 2017 & the whole world is falling apart. From a Tuscan hotel for the super-rich to a Brexit-paralysed UK, Kathy spends the first summer of her 40s trying to adjust to making a lifelong commitment just as Trump is tweeting the world into nuclear war.
