Working Poverty in Europe
Offering a comparative perspective, this book examines working poverty - those in work who are still classified as 'poor'. It argues that the growth in numbers of working poor in Europe is due to the transition from a Keynesian Welfare State to a 'post-fordist' model of production.

Race, Religion, Region
Racial and religious groups have played a key role in shaping the American West, yet scholars have for the most part ignored how race and religion have influenced regional identity. In this collection, eleven contributors explore the intersections of race, religion, and region to show how they transformed the West. From the Punjabi Mexican Americans of California to the European American shamans of Arizona to the Mexican Chinese of the borderlands, historical meanings of race in the American West are complex and are further complicated by religious identities. This book moves beyond familiar stereotypes to achieve a more nuanced understanding of race while also showing how ethnicity formed i...
Raza Schools
In 1929, a Latino community in the borderlands city of Del Rio, Texas, established the first and perhaps only autonomous Mexican American school district in Texas history. How it did so—against a background of institutional racism, poverty, and segregation—is the story Jesús Jesse Esparza tells in Raza Schools, a history of the rise and fall of the San Felipe Independent School District from the end of World War I through the post–civil rights era. The residents of San Felipe, whose roots Esparza traces back to the nineteenth century, faced a Jim Crow society in which deep-seated discrimination extended to education, making biased curriculum, inferior facilities, and prejudiced teache...
The Precariat in Western China
This book provides a comprehensive picture for understanding the experiences and dynamics of precarious workers’ in-work poverty in western China. The research presented in this book identifies the causes and the consequences of precarious employment and in-work poverty and analyses the stakeholders’ responses to the changes in the context of employment in China's socialist market economy. The book explains why precarious workers tend to remain outsiders to rapid socio-economic transformation and informs readers as to how people make choices, how those with different abilities adapt to the process of de-traditionalisation and how marketisation changes people’s lifestyles, value systems, policy designs. Detailing empirical investigations of the experience and dynamics of workers’ precarious life, this book will appeal to students and scholars of Chinese society, social policy and poverty.
A Risky Dream
There are certain dangers in this activity that not everyone is ready for. A person has to be committed to face danger as one of the rules of this wild game. This activity is for those that aren't afraid to risk it all to find a treasure. The author and his friends risked more than enough in some of the projects that they got into. Sometimes we wonder about the risks and dangers Miguel and his friends were exposed to in the past. Was it worth it? Yes it was! Fortunately, they came out of it alive. We can't say the same for other less fortunate individuals that lost it all, after successfully finding and excavating a treasure in Mexico.
The philosophy of bitcoin
The work addresses the impact of bitcoin at a theoretical-historical level, focusing on what this currency is, what money is and why bitcoin has specific qualities that represent a revolution in this field. In addition, it exposes and delves into the analysis of the crisis of two ideas: that of currency linked to the validation of political authority and that of the State, focusing, among other aspects, on the redefinition of property rights.
