Book Description
En 2023, El Niño fait son grand retour. Ce phénomène climatique récurrent, généré par l’océan Pacifique, réchauffe brutalement l’atmosphère. Inscrit dans l’histoire de nos civilisations, il va avoir un impact violent sur l’actualité géopolitique la plus brûlante. Car les historiens en retracent l’influence, aussi globale que redoutable, jusque dans un passé lointain. Le phénomène est souvent associé à des périodes de ruptures et d’effondrements civilisationnels, de l’Égypte antique aux cités-États mayas. Certains épisodes du XIXe siècle sont corrélés aux pires violences, de la défaite de la Grande Armée napoléonienne en Russie, jusqu’à l’histoire coloniale de l’Inde sous la domination britannique. Au XXe siècle, il a amplifié nombre des bouleversements politiques, économiques et militaires. Le cycle de 2023 est porteur de risques climatiques et géopolitiques inédits. Aujourd’hui, El Niño aggrave l’emballement climatique et ses effets en cascade. Or les marchés agro-alimentaires mondiaux sont déjà sous très haute tension du fait des interactions entre la guerre en Ukraine, la rivalité sino-américaine, la crise de l’énergie et la multiplication de phénomènes climatiques extrêmes toujours plus marqués. À quoi va ressembler un monde chauffé à blanc, sur fond de tensions internationales, de migrations climatiques et de guerres de l’eau – qu’elles se jouent entre villages ou entre grandes puissances, comme les Etats-Unis et la Chine, déstabilisées par le climat et en compétition féroce pour les ressources ? El Niño 2023-2024 pourrait être un crash-test climatique. Nos sociétés sont-elles prêtes à encaisser 1,5°C de réchauffement planétaire ? Laurent Testot, journaliste scientifique spécialisé en histoire globale, conférencier, formateur. Auteur notamment de Cataclysmes. Une histoire environnementale de l’humanité, Payot, 2017, prix Léon de Rosen de l’Académie française 2018 (+ de 12 000 exemplaires vendus). Dernier ouvrage paru : Vortex. Faire face à l’Anthropocène, avec Nathanaël Wallenhorst, Payot, 2023.

Book Description
Capitalizing on the rich historical record of late antiquity, and employing sophisticated methodologies from social and economic history, this book reinterprets the end of Roman slavery. Kyle Harper challenges traditional interpretations of a transition from antiquity to the Middle Ages, arguing instead that a deep divide runs through 'late antiquity', separating the Roman slave system from its early medieval successors. In the process, he covers the economic, social and institutional dimensions of ancient slavery and presents the most comprehensive analytical treatment of a pre-modern slave system now available. By scouring the late antique record, he has uncovered a wealth of new material, providing fresh insights into the ancient slave system, including slavery's role in agriculture and textile production, its relation to sexual exploitation, and the dynamics of social honor. By demonstrating the vitality of slavery into the later Roman empire, the author shows that Christianity triumphed amidst a genuine slave society.

Book Description
How devastating viruses, pandemics, and other natural catastrophes swept through the far-flung Roman Empire and helped to bring down one of the mightiest civilizations of the ancient world Here is the monumental retelling of one of the most consequential chapters of human history: the fall of the Roman Empire. The Fate of Rome is the first book to examine the catastrophic role that climate change and infectious diseases played in the collapse of Rome’s power—a story of nature’s triumph over human ambition. Interweaving a grand historical narrative with cutting-edge climate science and genetic discoveries, Kyle Harper traces how the fate of Rome was decided not just by emperors, soldiers, and barbarians but also by volcanic eruptions, solar cycles, climate instability, and devastating viruses and bacteria. He takes readers from Rome’s pinnacle in the second century, when the empire seemed an invincible superpower, to its unraveling by the seventh century, when Rome was politically fragmented and materially depleted. Harper describes how the Romans were resilient in the face of enormous environmental stress, until the besieged empire could no longer withstand the combined challenges of a “little ice age” and recurrent outbreaks of bubonic plague. A poignant reflection on humanity’s intimate relationship with the environment, The Fate of Rome provides a sweeping account of how one of history’s greatest civilizations encountered and endured, yet ultimately succumbed to the cumulative burden of nature’s violence. The example of Rome is a timely reminder that climate change and germ evolution have shaped the world we inhabit—in ways that are surprising and profound.

Book Description
On Nov. 4, 2015, Justin Trudeau became Canada's 23rd prime minister. Trudeau promised to govern differently - in an optimistic and transparent way. Instead, as author and Sun columnist Candice Malcolm reports in this detailed examination of his earliest decisions, Trudeau has chosen to pursue a cynical political agenda to manipulate Canada's immigration system. As authorities in Europe struggle to respond to terror attacks and waves of migration from conflict zones, Trudeau is haphazardly throwing Canada's doors open to the world. Why is Trudeau granting Canadian citizenship to a convicted terrorist? Why is he scrapping the language test for many citizenship applicants? Malcolm puts forward compelling evidence that the prime minister is undermining Canadian values - and doing it for one simple reason: so his Liberal Party can win favour with special interest groups and add to its voting coalition in time for the next election. With his radical changes to our immigration system, Trudeau is sacrificing Canada's traditions and advantages. He is putting our economy, our national security and our very way of life at risk. Trudeau is changing our country - and changing what it means to be Canadian. Losing True North is a wake-up call to all Canadians.

Book Description
Lorenzo Cherubini investigates the effectiveness of attempts to introduce culturally relevant programs in Ontario, where the province has documented an achievement gap between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal students. He turns the spotlight on a rare success story-- one high school's attempt to recognize Aboriginal students' cultural and academic needs while helping them to build relationships with non-Aboriginal students. In this insightful study, teachers, students, youth counsellors, parents and caregivers, community leaders, and administrators share their thoughts on the effectiveness of the program, adding their voices to the existing literature and a human face to quantitative data on Aboriginal education and public policy in Ontario.--Provided by publisher

Book Description
The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies provides a forum for the scrutiny of significant issues in EU Law, the law of the European Convention on Human Rights, and Comparative Law with a 'European' dimension, and particularly those issues which have come to the fore during the year preceding publication. The contributions appearing in the collection are commissioned by the Centre for European Legal Studies (CELS) Cambridge, a research centre in the Law Faculty of the University of Cambridge specialising in European legal issues. The papers presented are at the cutting edge of the fields which they address, and reflect the views of recognised experts drawn from the University world, legal practice, and the institutions of both the EU and its Member States. Inclusion of the comparative dimension brings a fresh perspective to the study of European law, and highlights the effects of globalisation of the law more generally, and the resulting cross fertilisation of norms and ideas that has occurred among previously sovereign and separate legal orders. The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies is an invaluable resource for those wishing to keep pace with legal developments in the fast moving world of European integration.

Book Description
In 1969 the U.S. Air Force issued a statement that read' "No UFO reported, investigated and evaluated by the Air Force was ever an indication of threat to our national security." This statement is patently false. It has been proven untrue by the testimony of many military officers and airmen and documentation of incidents involving UFOs and nuclear weapons, testimonies of which the U.S. Air Force was fully aware. Unidentified details many of these testimonies, some for the first time. As partial justification for its position, the Air Force cites a University of Colorado study that was contracted and paid for by federal funds. Unidentified reveals how this study was actually just another part of the plan to cover up the reality of the UFO phenomenon. For the first time, Unidentified publishes evidence that the investigators for the Colorado study knew about the UFO-related missile shutdown incidents but did not investigate them or include them in their final report.
