By daytime, Ukraine is a sophisticated European country going about its business, and Kyiv seems like an enchanting city. But by night, the sirens roar, and the war begins. Ukraine is using the amount of ammunition that all of Europe produces in one day, and yet on the surface, much of the country appears to be going about its business as usual. This is a very different audiobook as this is a very different war – one fought by a huge army of civilians, from old punk rockers to university professors and Coca Cola brand managers who are working behind the scenes to outwit the Russian army.

Wie die Allianz der Diktatoren Putin und Xi Jinping die Freiheit bedroht. Die sicherheitspolitische Weltlage gleicht einem Pulverfass – während Russland seit 2014 in der Ukraine einen Krieg führt, rasselt China im Südpazifik mit den Säbeln.

Quantos países existem no mundo? A resposta é: cerca de duzentos. Agora pense no ano de 2150. Quantos haverá? Qual futuro o mapa-múndi de hoje sugere? A imagem mais conhecida do mapa-múndi, a que é ensinada desde a escola, mostra territórios delimitados por convenções. Cada pedaço de terra com sua própria bandeira, hino, traje e culinária típicas. Mas, como defende o historiador canadense Quinn Slobodian, é um erro ver a divisão do mundo de maneira uniforme e estática.

The World after Gaza takes the war in the Middle East, and the bitterly polarised reaction to it within as well as outside the West, as the starting point for a broad reevaluation of two competing narratives of the last century: the West’s triumphant account of victory over Nazi and communist totalitarianism and the spread of liberal capitalism, and the darker peoples’s frequently thwarted vision of racial equality. At a moment when the world’s balance of power is shifting, it is critically important to enter the experiences and perspectives of the majority of the world’s population.
