A new assessment of the debates about Just War in the twentieth and
twenty-first centuries, from the imperial wars of the nineteenth
century through the age of total war, the evolution of human rights
discourse and international law, to proportionality during the Cold
War and the redefinition of authority with the ascendancy of terror
groups.
Sharon Welch charts a way for people in power to inspire others and themselves, even if the goals of a gradually improving society seem illusory. The author shows us how we can channel our sense of being to a larger good.
When the protests are over, a guide to creating long-lasting social
change beyond the barricades From the Women's March in D.C. to
#BlackLivesMatter rallies across the country, there has been a
rising wave of protests and social activism. These events have been
an important part of the battle to combat racism, authoritarianism,
and xenophobia in Trump's America. However, the struggle for social
justice continues long after the posters and megaphones have been
packed away. After the protests are heard, how can we continue to
work toward lasting change? This book is an invaluable resource for
anyone invested in the fight for social justice. Welch highlights
examples of social justice work accomplished at the institutional
level. From the worlds of social enterprise, impact investing, and
sustainable business, After the Protests Are Heard describes the
work being done to promote responsible business practices and
healthy, cooperative communities. The book also illuminates how
colleges and universities educate students to strive toward social
justice on campuses across the country, such as the Engaged
Scholarship movement, which fosters interactions between faculty
and students and local and global communities. In each of these
instances, activists work from within institutions to transform
practices and structures to foster justice and equality. After the
Protests Are Heard confronts the difficult reality that social
change is often followed by spikes in violence and
authoritarianism. It offers important insights into how the nation
might more fully acknowledge the brutal costs of racism and the
historical drivers of racial injustice, and how people of all races
can contain such violence in the present and prevent its resurgence
in the future. For many members of the social justice community,
the real work begins when the protests end. After the Protests Are
Heard is a must-read for everyone interested in social justice and
activism - from the barricades and campuses to the breakrooms and
cubicles.

"Cinema and the Swastika" is the very first publication to bring
together comparative research on the international expansion of the
Third Reich cinema. This volume investigates various attempts to

befriended or entertained 'neutral' relationships with. Countries
and regions covered included Western and Central Europe, Italy,
Japan, Scandinavia, Spain, the South Americas, the USA and (in a
new chapter for the paperback edition) the occupied Eastern
Territories (Soviet Union, Baltic States and Poland). The book also
features assessments of the International Film Chamber, through
which propaganda minister Goebbels tried to take lead of the 'Film
Europe' movement, and of Hispano Film, through which German cinema
tried to conquer Spanish markets.
"Cinema and the Swastika" includes contributions from
internationally acclaimed specialists. The hardback version of this
book, which has been revised for this paperback edition, was
enthusiastically received and won the 2007 Willy Haas Award for
books on German cinema.

This book is about the recollections I have of my experiences in
the U.S. Army from 1965 to 1968. Many people have written books
about their experiences in Vietnam. I wanted to approach the
subject from my perspective as a support technician who was there
very early in the conflict and never had to experience the effects
of incoming Chinese rockets, their base perimeter being penetrated,
or the Tet offensive in 1968. Most of my approximately 2,000 slides
and pictures from Vietnam got lost during the trials and
tribulations of life, and I am left with 100 slides that I had
digitized in 2000. I have included over 70 of my best pictures from
Hawaii and Vietnam in this book, as well as many stock photos, maps
and documents. At 70 years old my memory is not what it once was,
but I have tried my best to be factual and not embellish my
experiences. Thank you for your interest in my book and I hope you
enjoy it.
