Mereka Yang Terusir
Bertahan sebagai pengungsi di negara sendiri tidaklah mudah. Ini dialami oleh komunitas Syiah di Sidoarjo dan komunitas Ahmadiyah di Mataram.

Dengan memaparkan sejarah munculnya Syiah dan Ahmadiyah, konflik lokal yang terjadi, dan narasi kedua komunitas Muslim tersebut, terutama strategi mereka bertahan hidup, buku in...
Analisis Budaya Dan Implikasi Sosial Ekonomi Dalam Praktik Sabuk Jalan
Dalam era sekarang ini, hubungan antarbangsa/manusia juga sangat berkembang sejalan dengan pembangunan infrastruktur. Keduanya sama-sama membangun konektivitas. Namun infrastruktur hubungan budaya belum dikembangkan, baik oleh Tiongkok maupun negara yang diajak bekerja sama, termasuk Indonesia. Akibatnya adalah kendala hubungan, image negatif, dan penolakan antara Tiongkok dengan ASEAN atau dengan Indonesia, maupun dengan negara lain yang menjadi masalah dan kerap terjadi.

Selain itu, hubungan sosial budaya ...

Selling Sex Overseas
2013 Outstanding Book Award Winner from the Division of International Criminology, American Society of Criminology Every year, thousands of Chinese women travel to Asia and the United States in order to engage in commercial sex work. In Selling Sex Overseas, Ko-lin Chin and James Finckenauer challenge the current sex trafficking paradigm that considers all sex workers as victims, or sexual slaves, and as unwilling participants in the world of commercial sex. Bringing to life an on-the-ground portrait of this usually hidden world, Chin and Finckenauer provide a detailed look at all of its participants: sex workers, pimps, agents, mommies, escort agency owners, brothel owners, and drivers. Ultimately, they probe the social, economic, and political organization of prostitution and sex trafficking, contradicting many of the ‘moral crusaders’ of the human trafficking world.
China's Cultural Diplomacy
This book examines China’s contemporary global cultural footprints through its recent development of cultural diplomacy. The volume presents an alternative analytical framework to examine China’s cultural diplomacy, which goes beyond the Western-defined concept of ‘soft power’ that prevails in the current literature. This new approach constructs a three-dimensional framework on Orientalism, cultural hegemony and nationalism to decipher the multiple contexts, which China inhabits historically, internationally and domestically. The book presents multiple case studies of the Confucius Institute, and compares the global programme located around the world with its Western counterparts, and also with other Chinese government-sponsored endeavours and non-government-initiated programmes. The author aims to solve the puzzle of why China’s efforts in cultural diplomacy are perceived differently around the world and helps to outline the distinctive features of China’s cultural diplomacy. This book will be of much interest to students of diplomacy, Chinese politics, foreign policy and International Relations in general.
Trumpty Dumpty Wanted a Crown
Following the success of his New York Times bestseller Dumpty, award-winning actor, author, and illustrator John Lithgow presents a brand-new collection of satirical poems chronicling the despotic age of Donald Trump. Trumpty Dumpty Wanted a Crown is darker and more hard-hitting than ever. Lithgow writes and draws with wit and fury as he takes readers through another year of the shocking events involving Trump and his administration. His uproarious poems and illustrations encompass Trump's impeachment, the COVID-19 pandemic, the Black Lives Matter protests, and much more. Lithgow targets Mitch McConnell, Mike Pompeo, Bill Barr, Jared Kushner, Elaine Chao, and many others, but also includes a few heroes of the moment, including Anthony Fauci, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, and even Barack Obama. The book arrives at a time when it's needed most. With all-new poems and never-before-seen line drawings, Lithgow will once again make readers laugh and pause to remember some of the most defining moments in recent history—skewering the reign of King Dumpty one stanza at a time. Digital audio edition read by the author.
