Hardback. Condición: New. Sweden was perceived for a long time as a society characterized by equality, social cohesion and an ambitious welfare policy. With its independent foreign policy, it stood outside the great power conflicts. In recent years, gang crime and shootings have received a lot of attention in the media, a right-wing populist party has become part of the government and we have ended 200 years of non-alignment by becoming members of NATO. How has it changed the image of our country and ourselves?In this anthology, a number of writers discuss the image of Sweden past and present, both within and outside the country's borders. Svante Nordin writes about Sweden and Luther, Elisabeth Braw about the importance of Swedes living abroad, Mikael Wiberg about the technological wonder, Fraser Nelson about gang crime and Sofia Bard about Sweden's soft power. Per Enerud, Anna von Bayern and Nathan Shachar address the image of Sweden in Russia, Germany and Spain and Richard Swartz criticizes the decline of the Swedish language.…

Paperback. Condición: Fine. From the Roman forum to digital currencies, how has the market developed over the course of history and what might it look like in the future? This anthology takes a deep dive into market development and takes a closer look at the decisive role of markets in shaping the present but also addresses the burning question of how we should navigate towards a sustainable future. In thought-provoking essays written by international researchers, politicians and experts, market dynamics are explored in three critical phases: yesterday, today and tomorrow. Drawing on the squares of ancient Greece and the markets of medieval Europe, the authors examine how technological advances, consumer behavior, and geopolitical strategy, such as the policies of the Reagan era, have shaped contemporary markets. Finally, the book addresses the challenges to market stability posed by, for example, authoritarian states and AI.…

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. An exploration of humanity's 'double soul' - divine and earthly - across cultures, from ancient trances to modern psychological insights. The idea that humans have a double soul has ancient roots and can be found in most cultures and societies, including in religion and art. Phenomena such as ecstasies, trances, and out-of-body states have been observed and analysed in relation to the history of the double soul and its occurrence in different cultures. How can we understand these experiences? What is their significance for our understanding of how people view eternity and the secular world? Can they be explained in psychological terms? The anthology The Double Self in the Religious Experience explores the idea that people have a double soul, part divine and part earthly. Some of our era's most prominent historians of religion, historians of ideas, social anthropologists, and psychologists provide an in-depth analysis of the subject from a philosophical and historical perspective, as well as give an account of the situation today. The book includes previously unpublished texts on Hilma af Klint's view of double souls. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The cultural, religious, and political history of the Middle East as reflected in the region today The Middle East has always been a central site for trade and conquests. Its location has brought enormous wealth, cultural exchange, and intellectual vitality-but also conflicts, instability, and enduring political tensions. Understanding the region's past is crucial to understanding the present day. In Empires of Faith, internationally renowned scholars and writers explore the long history of the Middle East-from Mesopotamia, the Persian Empire, and Alexander the Great to the emergence of Christianity and Islam, the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires, and the dramatic transformation of the region in the twentieth century. How have religion, civilisation, and imperial ambitions shaped the region? What is the legacy of the great empires and how did they influence laws, culture, governance, and the everyday lives of their subjects? And to what extent are the repercussions of this history still visible in today's political and religious landscape?
