Описание: Newbery Medalist Paul Fleischman and Bagram Ibatoulline tell a breathtaking immigration tale with appeal across generations."Pick whatever you like most. Then I'll tell you its story." When a little girl visits her great-grandfather at his curio-filled home, she chooses an unusual object to learn about: an old cigar box. What she finds inside surprises her: a collection of matchboxes making up her great-grandfather's diary, harboring objects she can hold in her hand, each one evoking a memory. Together they tell of his journey from Italy to a new country, before he could read and write -- the olive pit his mother gave him to suck on when there wasn't enough food; a bottle cap he saw on his way to the boat; a ticket still retaining the thrill of his first baseball game. With a narrative entirely in dialogue, Paul Fleischman makes immediate the two characters' foray into the past. With warmth and an uncanny eye for detail, Bagram Ibatoulline gives expressive life to their journey through time -- and toward each other.

This book provides explanations for a broader audience as to what the obstacles are to the peace process and offers thoughtful perspectives that could help further the peace initiative. It analyzes factors that transcend the negotiations process, mostly relying on a broad sociological analysis. Many analysts and policy makers treated the conflict as a regular negotiation process and as such focused their analysis in the direction of how this negotiation could work. Others, treated the conflict and the interaction between Palestinians and Israelis as being one between two different narratives that could either be reconciled or not. Some argued that the Palestinians want to put an end to the State of Israel and claim all of historical Palestine for themselves, while others believe Israelis want to impose their sovereignty over the same territory via settlement expansion, claiming that the land legitimately and historically belongs to the Jewish people.
However, the history of the peace process shows that the sides have been very close to an agreement. This book searches for nuanced solutions towards progress. Thus, the political solutions seek alternatives to a Palestinian state seeking peace with Israel, which includes not only peace between the parties but also the need to provide order and normalcy for the Palestinians. It analyzes the idea of a Palestinian/Jordanian confederacy, along with its advantages and disadvantages. Likewise, it analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of an Israeli unilateral withdrawal from most of the West Bank. The book also explores the chances that the Palestinian security establishment, that has worked together with the Israeli security establishment for years, could generate the leadership necessary to restore order to Palestinian society.

The pig played a key role in the German Democratic Republic's attempts to create a modern, industrial food system built on communist principles. By the mid-1980s, East Germany produced more pork per capita than West Germany and the UK, while also suffering the unintended consequences of manure pollution, animal disease, and rolling food shortages.
The pig is a highly adaptive animal, and Thomas Fleischman uncovers three types of pig that played roles in this history: the industrial pig, remade to suit the conditions of factory farming; the wild boar, whose overpopulation was a side effect of agricultural development; and the garden pig, reflective of the regime's growing acceptance of private farming within the planned economy.
Fleischman chronicles East Germany's journey from family farms to factory farms, explaining how communist principles shaped the adoption of industrial agriculture practices. More broadly, Fleischman argues that agriculture under communism came to reflect the practices of capitalist agriculture, and that the pork industry provides a clear illustration of this convergence. His analysis sheds light on the causes of the country's environmental and political collapse in 1989 and offers a warning about the high cost of cheap food in the present and future. Communist Pigs was a finalist for the Turku Book Award, European Society for Environmental History.
