Аннотация: "This interdisciplinary volume brings together a richly substantive collection of case studies that examine European-indigene interactions, economic relations, and their materialities in the formation of the modern world. Research has well demonstrated the extent and complexity of the varied local economic and political systems, and diverse social formations that pre-dated European contact. These preexisting systems articulated with the expanding European economy and, in doing so, shaped its emergence. Moving beyond the confines of national or Atlantic histories to examine regional systems and their historical trajectories on a global scale, the studies within this volume draw examples from the Caribbean, Mesoamerica, North America, South America, Africa, and South Asia. While the contributions are rooted in substantive studies from different world areas, their overarching aim is to negotiate between global and local frames, revealing how the expanding world-system entangled the non-Western world in global economies, yet did so in ways that were locally articulated, varied and, often, non-European in their expression"--

Аннотация: "Billionaire Wilderness offers an unprecedented look inside the world of the ultra-wealthy and their relationship to the natural world, showing how the ultra-rich use nature to resolve key predicaments in their lives. Justin Farrell immerses himself in Teton County, Wyoming-both the richest county in the United States and the county with the nation's highest level of income inequality-to investigate interconnected questions about money, nature, and community in the twenty-first century. Farrell draws on three years of in-depth interviews with "ordinary" millionaires and the world's wealthiest billionaires, four years of in-person observation in the community, and original quantitative data to provide comprehensive and unique analytical insight on the ultra-wealthy. He also interviewed low-income workers who could speak to their experiences as employees for and members of the community with these wealthy people. He finds that the wealthy leverage nature to climb even higher on the socioeconomic ladder, and they use their engagement with nature and rural people as a way of creating more virtuous and deserving versions of themselves. Billionaire Wilderness demonstrates that our contemporary understanding of the relationship between the ultra-wealthy and the environment is empirically shallow, and our reliance on reports of national economic trends distances us from the real experiences of these people and their local communities"--

Аннотация: "This book examines the Housing Voucher Choice Program, colloquially known as "Section 8," and the effect of the program on low-income families living in Park Heights in Baltimore. In a new era of housing policy that hopes to solve poverty with opportunity in the form of jobs, social networks, education, and safety, the program offers the poor access to a new world: safe streets, good schools, and well-paying jobs through housing vouchers. The system should, in theory, give recipients access to housing in a wide range of neighborhoods, but in The Voucher Promise, Rosen examines how the housing policy, while showing great promise, faces critical limitations. Rosen spent over a year living in a Park Heights neighborhood, getting to know families, accompanying them on housing searches, spending time on front stoops, and learning about the history of the neighborhood and the homeowners who had settled there decades ago. She examines why, when low-income renters are given the opportunity to afford a home in a more resource-rich neighborhood, they do not relocate to one, observing where they instead end up and other opportunities housing vouchers may offer them"--

Аннотация: "A PEOPLE'S HISTORY OF DETROIT provides a sweeping, Marxist account of Detroit's development and dispossession over the past century. Throughout the book, Mark Jay and Philip Conklin show how the revitalization as well as demise of Detroit are part and parcel of the logic of capitalism. Building on other recent works that show how precarity, uneven development, and colossal waste are constitutive parts of capital's relentless pursuit of surplus value, the book offers a powerful antidote to recurrent narratives of market triumphalism. Chapter 1 analyzes contemporary Detroit, arguing that increasing investment downtown and the dispossession of neighborhoods are not separate entities, but a result of the same process of unequal development. The second chapter looks back at Detroit's birth as a global industrial center and how increased demands for labor led to ethnic divisions among workers and, later, heightened racial violence. Chapters 3 and 4 explore the radical movements and politicized organizations that came out of the 1960s. The Black Panther Party is one of these groups, which called for a restructuring of the political economy but were met with severe repression. The final chapter further discusses the "dialectic of repression and integration" these groups faced as well as the victories of state forces allied with corporations. Among the issues that emerged at this time were the growing unemployment rates and the lack of willingness on behalf of the state to accept crime as a result of social dislocation. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in sociology, urban studies, and African American studies"--
