CHERRY BOMB
The year is 2031 and the US is rapidly devolving into a third world country. Corruption has become public knowledge and the middle-class clings to existence by its fingertips while the federal government does everything in its power to prevent total anarchy. Law enforcement has suffered some of the most devastating cuts - including the Seattle Police Department, employer of Inspector Calvin Lee Asher. When Calvin's ex-girlfriend turns up brutally murdered, he is denied the investigation and assigned instead to uncover a murder conspiracy that resulted in the death of one of the richest men in the country, and a long time friend of his late father. Calvin knows from the get-go that all parties involved are manipulating his investigation, but when the NSA claims terrorism may be involved, the inspector finds himself caught in a web of conspiracies that threaten to destroy what remains of the social order.
The Discordant Note
Ralf Brandenburg, international musician, is found dead on his loved piano. The man who will be in charge for the investigation, Vincent Germano, will have nothing but the words and hearsay evidences from the people who had the luck to know him.
The Diaries of Giacomo Meyerbeer: The years of celebrity, 1850-1856
Volume 3 covers a time span that preeminently represents the period in the composer's life known as The Years of International Fame (1850-56). Confirmed as the major figure on the operatic scene, and freed from the more onerous duties of his official position, Meyerbeer was able to enjoy his most remarkable period of stability and renown, as the detailed and absorbing diary entries reveal. These years saw the composing, rehearsing, and staging of L'Etoile du Nord (1854), and his personal supervision of major productions in London, Dresden, Stuttgart, and Vienna.
So Many Heroes
A vivid description of the Russian-led invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 by Alan Levy, an American journalist who lived there from 1967 to 1971.
Constitutionalism of the Global South
The Indian Supreme Court, the South African Constitutional Court and the Colombian Constitutional Court have been among the most important and creative courts in the Global South. In Asia, Africa and Latin America, they are seen as activist tribunals that have contributed (or attempted to contribute) to the structural transformation of the public and private spheres of their countries. The cases issued by these courts are creating a constitutionalism of the Global South. This book addresses in a direct and detailed way the jurisprudence of these Courts on three key topics: access to justice, cultural diversity and socioeconomic rights. This volume is a valuable contribution to the discussion about the contours and structure of contemporary constitutionalism. It makes explicit that this discussion has interlocutors both in the Global South and Global North while showing the common discourse between them and the differences on how they interpret and solve key constitutional problems.
Law and Counterrevolution
The book presents the author’s understanding of the concept of legal tradition. In modern academic law there is no clear definition of the concept of legal tradition, but at the same time there are many works that consider and use this phenomenon. Based on the research by Harold Berman – “Law and Revolution. The Formation of the Western Legal Tradition”, this book is the attempt to theoretically formulate the concept of legal tradition. The central theme of the work is one of the supreme values of law – the human right to life. The Right to human life had a different value in law in each historical era. This regularity in different historical types of legal order is explained as a ...
Think Global, Fear Local
In 1999, responding to international concerns about the sexual exploitation of children, the Japanese Diet voted unanimously to ban child prostitution and child pornography. Two years later, in the wake of 9/11, Junichiro Koizumi's cabinet radically shifted government counterterrorism policy toward new military solutions, and away from an earlier emphasis on law enforcement. Although they seem unrelated, these two policies reveal the unintended consequences of attempts to enforce international norms at the national level. In Think Global, Fear Local, David Leheny posits that when states abide by international agreements to clamp down on transnational crime and security concerns, they respond...
