Описание: The literature on the right and the radical right has a largely Euro-American bias, limited by partisan academics focusing on the left. The Right and Radical Right in the Americas hopes to be a pioneering work that examines the history and contemporary manifestations of the right and radical right throughout the Americas.
Описание: Numerous political commentators have noted the rise of the radical right worldwide. How has the radical right responded to the COVID-19 pandemic? Has the radical right been legitimized in a world of closed borders and greater securitization? Have radical right regimes in power cracked under the strains of the crisis and thus undermined their own political fortunes? Have radical right-wing responses to COVID-19 been uniform or diversified? These are some of the questions tackled in Responses to the COVID-19 Pandemic by the Radical Right. This volume gathers a collection of short pieces, which highlight the multi-faceted ways in which right-wing and radical right-wing political forces have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic. It presents research by scholars from all around the world concentrating on the evolution of radical right-wing movements since the COVID-19 crisis began and their influence on mainstream and alternative narratives. The edited volume includes case studies as well as far-reaching reports on the radical right's utilizing of the crisis to re-shape ideas about sovereignty, globalization, democracy, equality, diversity, and political legitimacy. Such studies comprise cases on gender and class, racism, religious hatred, scapegoating, anti-Semitism and Sinophobia, conspiracy theories, and online radicalization, focusing on locations as diverse as the US, Canada, Brazil, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Italy, France, Spain, Ukraine, Latvia, Israel, and India. All such studies are compiled in a total of six chapters and an epilogue, organized thematically and by country.

Описание: Soccer is no ordinary game. It is the world s most popular sport, and as such it is also a global and cultural phenomenon of immense importance. The television audience for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa included nearly half of the world s population with viewers from nearly every country and territory on earth. As a reflection of soccer s significance, the sport s cultural impact can be discerned on diverse realms of life from politics and religion to business and the arts. In The World through Soccer: The Cultural Impact of a Global Sport, Tamir Bar-On uses soccer to convey insights into worldwide politics, religion, ethics, marketing, business, leadership, philosophy, and the arts. Throughout, Bar-On examines the ways in which soccer influences and reflects these aspects of society, and vice versa. In addition, each section features representative players, providing specific examples of how soccer replicates and informs our lives. Players discussed come from a wide array of eras, countries, and backgrounds, and include Diego Maradona, Pele, Hugo Sanchez, Cha Bum-Kun, Roger Milla, Jose Luis Chilavert, Zinedine Zidane, Paolo Maldini, Cristiano Ronaldo, Xavi, Neymar, Clint Dempsey, Mia Hamm, and many others. Employing a unique lens through which to view a variety of societal topics, The World through Soccer reveals the profound cultural impact of the sport. Combining philosophical, popular, and academic insights about the world we live in, this book is geared towards soccer fans, academics, and the culturally curious and offers readers a new perspective into a sport that affects millions.
