E-BooksThe Killing Consensus Police, Organized Crime, and the Regulation of Life and Death in Urban Brazil



The Killing Consensus Police, Organized Crime, and the Regulation of Life and Death in Urban Brazil
Free Download Graham Denyer Willis, "The Killing Consensus: Police, Organized Crime, and the Regulation of Life and Death in Urban Brazil"
English | 2015 | pages: 217 | ISBN: 0520285719 | PDF | 4,3 mb
We hold many assumptions about police work―that it is the responsibility of the state, or that police officers are given the right to kill in the name of public safety or self-defense. But in The Killing Consensus, Graham Denyer Willis shows how in São Paulo, Brazil, killing and the arbitration of "normal" killing in the name of social order are actually conducted by two groups―the police and organized crime―both operating according to parallel logics of murder. Based on three years of ethnographic fieldwork, Willis's book traces how homicide detectives categorize two types of killing: the first resulting from "resistance" to police arrest (which is often broadly defined) and the second at the hands of a crime "family' known as the Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC). Death at the hands of police happens regularly, while the PCC's centralized control and strict moral code among criminals has also routinized killing, ironically making the city feel safer for most residents. In a fractured urban security environment, where killing mirrors patterns of inequitable urbanization and historical exclusion along class, gender, and racial lines, Denyer Willis's research finds that the city's cyclical periods of peace and violence can best be understood through an unspoken but mutually observed consensus on the right to kill. This consensus hinges on common notions and street-level practices of who can die, where, how, and by whom, revealing an empirically distinct configuration of authority that Denyer Willis calls sovereignty by consensus.

Virginie Arantes, "China's Green Consensus "

Despite contrasting approaches, democratic and authoritarian governments all underline the fact that environmental protection is crucial and inevitable―and China's enthusiasm in stepping up its efforts to protect the environment has not gone unnoticed. This book highlights how the consensual orchestration of sustainability in China's biggest city, Shanghai, affects non-state actors' ways of perceiving, acting, and organizing around environmental issues.

E-BooksThe Beijing Consensus How China Has Changed Western Ideas of Law and Economic Development



The Beijing Consensus How China Has Changed Western Ideas of Law and Economic Development
Weitseng Chen, "The Beijing Consensus?: How China Has Changed Western Ideas of Law and Economic Development"
English | ISBN: 1107138434 | 2017 | 346 pages | PDF | 7 MB
Is there a distinctive Chinese model for law and economic development? In The Beijing Consensus scholars turn their collective attention to answer this basic but seemingly under-explored question as China rises higher in its global standing. Advancing debates on alternative development programs, with a particular focus on social and political contexts, this book demonstrates that essentially, no model exists. Engaging in comparative studies, the contributors create a new set of benchmarks to evaluate the conventional wisdom that the Beijing Consensus challenges and that of the Beijing Consensus itself. Has China demonstrated that the best model is in fact no model at all? Overall, this title equips the reader with an understanding of the conclusions derived from China's experience in its legal and economic development in recent decades.

At a time when many proclaim the death of active investing, Rupal J. Bhansali, global contrarian, makes a clarion call for its renaissance. Non-consensus thinking has resulted in breakthrough successes in science, sports, and Silicon Valley. Bhansali shows how to apply it to the world of investing to improve one's odds of achieving above-average returns with below-average risks. Her upside-down investment approach focuses on avoiding losers instead of picking the winners, asking the right questions instead of knowing the right answers, and scoring upset victories to achieve the greatest bang for one's research buck. Non-Consensus Investing is a must-listen for anyone who seeks to understand why active investing disappointed and how it can succeed.

E-BooksHitler's Compromises Coercion and Consensus in Nazi Germany (Audiobook)



Hitler's Compromises Coercion and Consensus in Nazi Germany (Audiobook)
English | 2017 | MP3 | M4B | ASIN: B06XHQV87Z | Duration: 14:51 h | 346 MB
Nathan Stoltzfus / Narrated by Shaun Grindell
History has focused on Hitler's use of charisma and terror, asserting that the dictator made few concessions to maintain power. Nathan Stoltzfus, the award-winning author of Resistance of Heart: Intermarriage and the Rosenstrasse Protest in Germany, challenges this notion, assessing the surprisingly frequent tactical compromises Hitler made in order to preempt hostility and win the German people's complete fealty. As part of his strategy to secure a "1,000-year Reich", Hitler sought to convince the German people to believe in Nazism so they would perpetuate it permanently and actively shun those who were out of step with society. When widespread public dissent occurred at home - which most often happened when policies conflicted with popular traditions or encroached on private life - Hitler made careful calculations and acted strategically to maintain his popular image. Extending from the 1920s to the regime's collapse, this revealing history makes a powerful and original argument that will inspire a major rethinking of Hitler's rule.
