Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

At least 200,000 people died from hunger or malnutrition-related
diseases in Spain during the 1940s. This book provides a political
explanation for the famine and brings together a broad range of
academics based in Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States and
Australia to achieve this. Topics include the political causes of
the famine, the physical and social consequences, the ways
Spaniards tried to survive, the regime's reluctance to accept
international relief, the politics of cooking at a time of famine,
and the memory of the famine. The volume challenges the silence and
misrepresentation that still surround the famine. It reveals the
reality of how people perished in Spain because the Francoist
authorities instituted a policy of food self-sufficiency (or
autarky): a system of price regulation which placed restrictions on
transport as well as food sales. The contributors trace the massive
decline in food production which followed, the hoarding which took
place on an enormous scale and the vast and deeply iniquitous black
market that subsequently flourished at a time when salaries plunged
to 50% below their levels in 1936: all contributing factors in the
large-scale atrocity explored fully here for the first time.
It is the mid-1980s, the era of so-called reformist apartheid, and
South Africa is in flames. Police and military are gunning down
children at the forefront of the liberation struggle. Far from such
action, it seems, a small party of four is traveling by minibus to
the north of the country, close to the border with Zimbabwe. Their
aim is to shoot a documentary on the discovery of a prehistoric
skull that Professor Digby Bamford boasts is evidence that, "True
man first arose in southern Africa." Boozy, self-absorbed Professor
Bamford is unaware that his young lover, Vicky, brings with her
some complications. Rian, the videographer, was once in love with
her, and his passion has been reignited. Bucs, a young man from the
townships, is doing his best not to be involved in the increasingly
deadly tensions. Powerful and provocative, brilliantly written, The
Unspeakable is as unforgettable as it is unsettling. Told in the
first person by Rian, it centers on the conflicted being of the
white male under apartheid. Unlike many of the great novels of the
era, it renounces any claim to the relative safety zone of
moralistic dissociation from the racist crime against humanity, and
cuts instead to the quick of complicity. It is sometimes said of
Albert Camus's The Stranger that everything would have turned out
very differently, had the murder only taken place "a few hundred
miles to the south." This is that South with a vengeance.
This book explores the impact of the United Nations Declaration on
the Rights of Indigenous Peoples in Japan and Australia, where it
has heralded change in the rights of Indigenous Peoples to have
their histories, cultures, and lifeways taught in culturally
appropriate and respectful ways in mainstream education systems.
The book examines the impact of imposed education on Indigenous
Peoples' pre-existing education values and systems, considers
emergent approaches towards Indigenous education in the
post-imperial context of migration, and critiques certain
professional development, assessment, pedagogical approaches and
curriculum developments. This book will be of great interest to
researchers and lecturers of education specialising in Indigenous
Education, as well as postgraduate students of education and
teachers specialising in Indigenous Education.

Black Mirror, Netflix's dystopian anthology, probes what it means
to be human in a technological world. While the show raises
interesting, if not disturbing, questions, it refrains from giving
answers, putting the onus on viewers to continue the conversation.
Accordingly, Theology and Black Mirror engages questions and
prominent themes in Black Mirror with resources from the Christian
tradition, including the academic disciplines of biblical studies,
theology, philosophy, and ethics.

Tracing the lives and experiences of 100,000 Africans who landed in
Sierra Leone having been taken off slave vessels by the British
Navy following Britain's abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave
trade, this study focuses on how people, forcibly removed from
their homelands, packed on to slave ships, and settled in Sierra
Leone were able to rebuild new lives, communities, and collective
identities in an early British colony in West Africa. Their
experience illuminates both African and African diaspora history by
tracing the evolution of communities forged in the context of
forced migration and the missionary encounter in a prototypical
post-slavery colonial society. A new approach to the major
historical field of British anti-slavery, studied not as a history
of legal victories (abolitionism) but of enforcement and lived
experience (abolition), Richard Peter Anderson reveals the linkages
between emancipation, colonization, and identity formation in the
Black Atlantic.

In the face of the continuously changing challenges of the digital
age, it is difficult for quality news journalism to survive on any
significant scale if a means for adequately funding it is not
available. This new study, a follow-up to 2007's The Future of
Journalism in the Advanced Democracies, includes a comparative
analysis of possible alternative business models that may save the
future of the quality news business across the developed,
intermediate, and developing worlds. Its detailed evaluation
encompasses also the different ways in which wider key issues are
affecting the prospects for quality news as a core ingredient of
effectively working democracies. It focuses on the United States,
the United Kingdom, South Africa, India, Kenya, and selected parts
of the Arab World, providing a comprehensive cross-cultural survey
of different approaches to addressing these various issues. To keep
the study firmly rooted in the "real world" the contributors
include distinguished practitioners as well as experienced
academics.
In Spain between 1936-1945, the Franco regime carried out one
Europe's more brutal but less remembered programs of mass
repression. Many were murdered by the regime's death squads, and in
some areas Francoists also subjected up to 15% of the population to
summary military trials. Here many suffered the death sentence or
jail terms up to thirty years. Although historians have recognised
the staggering scale of the trials, they have tended to overlook
the mass participation that underpinned them. In contrast to the
discussion in other European countries, little attention has been
paid to the wide scale collusion in the killings and incarcerations
in Spain. Exploring mass complicity in the trials of hundreds of
thousands of defeated Republicans following the end of the Spanish
Civil War, The Francoist Military Trials probes local Francoists'
accusations whereby victims were selected for prosecution in
military courts. It also shows how insubstantial and hostile
testimony formed the bedrock of 'investigations', secured
convictions, and shaped the harsh sentencing practices of Franco's
military judges. Using civil court records, it also documents how
grassroots Francoists continued harassing Republicans for many
years after they emerged from prison. Challenging the popularly
prevalent view that the Franco regime imposed a police state upon a
passive Spanish society, the evidence Anderson uncovers here
illustrates that local state officials and members of the regime's
support base together forged a powerful repressive system that
allowed them to wage war on elements of their own society to a
greater extent than perhaps even the Nazis managed against their
own population.

"The Global Politics of Power, Justice and Death" investigates the
nature and complexity of global change. Among other things it looks
at the future of the state, the environment, the international
political economy, war and global rivalries, and the role of
international law and the UN in the post-Cold War world. The book
devises a readily comprehensible "change map" which both
incorporates a wide range of the fundamental concepts of
international relations theory and suggests a number of new
concepts capable of assisting the investigation of global change.
This new framework is deployed to look closely at real world issues
in order to isolate the crucial factors which determine whether or
not mass hunger, for example, or environmental abuse, can be
eliminated. Readers interested in International Relations and
International Politics will find this a stimulating and provocative
introduction to a fascinating subject.
