Duke University Press WorldSystems Analysis
Book SynopsisAn introduction to world systems analysis by its creator.Trade Review“At a time when globalization is at the center of international debate from Davos to Porto Alegre, an introduction to ‘world-systems analysis,’ an original approach to world development since the sixteenth century, is timely and relevant. This is a lucidly written and comprehensive treatment of its origins, controversies, and development by Immanuel Wallerstein, its undoubted pioneer and most eminent practitioner.”—Eric Hobsbawm, author of Interesting Times: A Twentieth-Century Life and The Age of Extremes: A History of the World, 1914–1991“Immanuel Wallerstein’s mind can reach as far and encompass as much as anyone’s in our time. The world, to him, is a vast, integrated system, and he makes the case for that vision with an elegant and almost relentless logic. But he also knows that to see as he does requires looking through a very different epistemological lens than the one most of us are in the habit of using. So his gift to us is not just a new understanding of how the world works but a new way of apprehending it. A brilliant work on both scores.”—Kai Erikson, William R. Kenan Jr. Professor Emeritus of Sociology and American Studies, Yale UniversityTable of ContentsAcknowledgments vii To Start: Understanding the World in Which We Live ix 1.

Adams Media Corporation Yes, I'm Hot in This: The Hilarious Truth about
Book Synopsis“Fahmy uses humor to work through stereotypes and tell stories about nuanced hijabi characters.” —The Washington Post Popular Instagram cartoonist and Muslim-American Huda Fahmy presents a hilarious, relatable, and painfully honest new collection of comics that break down barriers and show how universal our everyday problems, worries, and joys actually are. At some point in our lives, we’ve all felt a little out of place. Huda Fahmy has found it’s a little more difficult to fade into the crowd when wearing a hijab. In Yes, I’m Hot in This, Huda navigates the sometimes-rocky waters of life from the unique perspective of a Muslim-American woman, breaking down misconceptions of her culture one comic at a time. From recounting the many questions she gets about her hijab every day (yes, she does have hair) and explaining how she runs in an abaya (just fine, thank you) to dealing with misconceptions about Muslims, Yes, I’m Hot in This tackles universal feelings from an point of view we don’t hear from nearly enough. Every one of us have experienced love, misunderstanding, anger, and a deep desire for pizza. In Yes, I’m Hot in This, Huda’s clever comics demonstrate humor’s ability to bring us together, no matter how different we may appear on the surface.Trade Review"The book does something an Instagram account simply cannot, which is provide a continuous narrative that flows seamlessly (and humorously) through every emotion experienced by the modern woman wearing hijab. Fahmy illustrates her experiences with amiable, unreserved honesty. The book is an incredibly enjoyable read, too… .Fahmy manages to express all of the struggles she experiences with unabashed zest … at the same time, she asserts that she isn’t defined by these struggles." * Haute Hijab *"Yes, I’m Hot in This is hilarious, honest, and will show you how alike all humans actually are." * HelloGiggles *"Nothing unites us quite like comedy. Dive into another perspective with this delightful collection of comics from Huda Fahmy about the realities of wearing a hijab and some of the ridiculous questions she gets asked about it." * CulturedVultures *"Yes, I’m Hot in This tackles universal feelings from an point of view we don’t hear from nearly enough … Huda’s clever comics demonstrate humor’s ability to bring us together, no matter how different we may appear on the surface." * Ashley Karlen *"This book was pretty wonderful ... a very realistic, raw, and true commentary on the world today regarding how many Americans treat other cultures unfairly." * Reader Fox *"Yes, I’m Hot in This doesn’t shy away from the differences between some Muslim-American experiences and the rest of the population, but it does go to great lengths to make those experiences part of the human condition." * Houston Chronicle *"A gift for all the well-meaning but clueless people in your life; it tackles serious topics with humor and grace." * Muslim Reads *"Both hilarious and heartbreaking." * HJ Book Blog *"A hilarious comic collection...both entertaining and informative." * Jill Emmett *"A breath of fresh air." * Muslimah Media Watch *

New York University Press Caring Democracy
Book SynopsisArgues for the need to make care, not economics, the central concern of democratic political lifeTrade ReviewIn this wonderful book from one of todays leading feminist political theorists, Joan Tronto argues that democracy is in a time of crisisand she is right. Identifying the & passes that some of us get for sharing responsibility for care, particularly men and the wealthy, she calls for a & democratic care revolution. Though keenly aware of the personal and private character of many care activities, Tronto makes a compelling case for care as a public good and for rethinking the way in which caring responsibilities are carried out in order to achieve the freedom, equality, and justice that are necessary not only to better care, but to better democracy. Her notion of & caring with as a fundamental democratic ideal brings a much-needed corrective to the literature on care that enables us to think more concretely about how society needs to be restructured to meet the care needs of all citizens. The argument is thoughtful, careful, meticulous, and indeed, riveting. -- Nancy J. Hirschmann,author of Gender, Class, and Freedom in Modern Political TheoryIs democracy just a matter of voter turnout? No, Tronto argues in this important paradigm-shifting bookit also connects us to one another through a responsibility to care. The neo-liberal call to an & ownership society erodes that responsibility by giving out & passes. With the & bootstrap pass one can say, & its enough to care for me and mine. With the & charity pass one can say & well help only the few we chose.Read this book and open your eyes. -- Arlie Hochschild,author of The Outsourced Self: Intimate Life in Market TimesTable of ContentsC o n t e n t s Preface ixAcknowledgments xviiIntroduction: When Care Is No Longer "at Home" 1Part I : Envi s ioning a Caring D emocracy1 Redefining Democracy as Settling Disputesabout Care Responsibilities 172 Why Personal Responsibility Isn't Enough for Democracy 46Part I I : How We Care Now3 Tough Guys Don't Care ...
