pWinner of the 2019 Gordon K. Sybil Lewis Book AwardppIn 1833, the abolition of slavery in the British Empire led to the import of exploited South Asian indentured workers in the Caribbean under extreme oppression. Dave Ramsaran and Linden F. Lewis concentrate on the Indian descendants' processes of mixing, assimilating, and adapting while trying desperately to hold on to that which marks a group of people as distinct.ppIn some ways, the lived experience of the Indian community in Guyana and Trinidad represents a cultural contradiction of belonging and non-belonging. In other parts of the Caribbean, people of Indian descent seem so absorbed by the more dominant African culture and through intermarriage that Indo-Caribbean heritage seems less central.ppIn this collaboration based on focus groups, in-depth interviews, and observation, sociologists Ramsaran and Lewis lay out a context within which to develop a broader view of Indians in Guyana and Trinidad, a numerical majority in both countries. They address issues of race and ethnicity but move beyond these familiar aspects to track such factors as ritual, gender, family, and daily life. Ramsaran and Lewis gauge not only an unrelenting process of assimilative creolization on these descendants of India, but also the resilience of this culture in the face of modernization and globalization.p

- A plea for the healing of society - Accompanies the exhibition Pedro Reyes Sociatry, held from 26 March to 14 August 2022 at the Museum Marta Herford - Art between activation and activism This book is published to accompany the first comprehensive show of the Mexican artist Pedro Reyes in Europe. The trained architect caused an international sensation in 2012 with his large installation Sanatorium at dOCUMENTA 13 in Kassel. In the exhibition at Museum Marta Herford, Reyes presents his extensive sculptural work, which is allied to the concept of social sculpture developed by Joseph Beuys and often references political activism. As an artist who takes an interdisciplinary approach, Reyes is an advocate of the social impact of art, architecture and design. With his sculptural concepts that take a stand against violence and promote an intensive community experience and greater participation, he invites viewers to explore contemporary perspectives and creates a connection to theater, political activism and psychology. The term 'sociarty' was coined by the social scientist Jacob Levy Moreno, who developed a series of therapies for healing society. In this sense, Reyes not only poses critical questions with his projects, but also develops utopian approaches to solving real social problems. In doing so, he incorporates psychological and philosophical as well as sociological and activist methods - encouraging people to become active themselves. Text in English and German.

Renowned author Ariel Dorfman, obsessed for twenty-five years with the malignant shadow General Pinochet cast upon Chile and the world, followed every twist and turn of the four year old trial in Great Britain, Spain and Chile as well as in the U.S., the country that had created Pinochet. Told as a suspense thriller, filled with court-room drama and sudden reversals of fortune, the book at the same time addresses some of today's most burning issues, made all the more urgent after the terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001. What are the limits of national sovereignty in a globalizing world How does an ever more interconnected world judge crimes committed against humanity What role do memory and pain and the rights of the survivors play in this struggle for a new system of justice But above all, the author, by listening carefully to the voices of Pinochet's many victims, explores how can we purge ourselves of terror and fear once we have been traumatized, and asks if we can build peace and reconciliation without facing a turbulent and perverse past.

pFootprints is a collection of poems that were either written or revised recently or recalled from work begun and lost fifty years before. Some recall pleasant memories of my beloved Veronica and some her later struggles with ill health. She was born and grew up in Dublin and Ireland remained a special place for both of us. The DART from Howth to Greystones tunnels under Queen V's crown and pops out for the view above Killiney Bay where the magic face of Ireland is found. We met and married in Syracuse. Events and places from that time are featured in some of the poems. Newtown Plus Five was written shortly after news coverage of the fifth anniversary of the Sandy Hook school massacre. An Elegy for One and Many commemorates the life of a friend the victims of the Pittsburgh synagogue rampage who died during the same period of time. Many of the poems are written in traditional verse forms and rhyme schemes.ppA number of poems reflect concerns about America the face it presents to the world and the state of its democracy. Ode from a Colonial Bowl recounts a family history of its founding.ppFlint where once-upon-a-time America coursed through its leaden arteries to nurse its middle class. In Vietnam we've grown old, some fifty years removed from when our universe was rolled into a white-hot ball, to find the common threads we shared in youth to pursue our common legacy. American Graffiti asks, Can Cicero and Caesar coexist within republican constraintppLet Freedom Ring calls upon us to answer the distant bells of freedom pealing in Ukraine.
