Im Auftrag der italienischen Zeitschrift Internazionale bereiste der Comic-Blogger Zerocalcare das türkisch-syrische Grenzgebiet. In den von Kurden beherrschten Gebieten entstand dort die autonome Region Rojava, mit der Stadt Kobane als Symbol für den Widerstand im Kampf gegen den Islamischen Staat. Im Januar 2014 gab sich die von der Bevölkerung aufgebaute demokratische Selbstverwaltung eine soziale Charta: Mit Gleichberechtigung der Frau, Religionsfreiheit und dem Verbot der Todesstrafe. Es sind die Werte, von denen sich die Türkei unter Erdogan immer weiter entfernt.Zerocalcare besuchte die Menschen vor Ort und sein Bericht ist nicht nur eine große Reportage, sondern zugleich ein Apell an die Herzen und ein Aufruf um Unterstützung: Kobane calling!"Mit seinem einzigartigen Stil und einem unglaublichen Sinn für Humor gibt Zerocalcare uns einen persönlichen Bericht über die Geschehnisse in Syrien und die wahren Gesichter des kurdischen Widerstands." europecomics.com"Kobane Calling besticht mit seinem Humor und den wichtigen Informationen, die darüber transportiert werden.

Democracy: A User's Guide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 808min

They say we live in a democracy. We are free, and we should be grateful.But just how “free” are we? How democratic are our so-called “democracies”?Is it enough to simply elect our leaders and sit back, helpless, as they rule over us like dictators? What good is selecting our politicians, if we cannot control our media, police, or soldiers? If we must blindly follow our teachers’ and bosses’ commands whilst at school and in the workplace, is it not a little naïve to believe that we are the masters of our own destinies? And if our resources are controlled by a tiny cabal of plutocrats, bankers, and corporations, can we honestly say that our economies are being run for us?Could things not be a little bit more, well, democratic?Indeed, they can! Democracy: A User’s Guide shows us how.In this story-filled book, we shall visit Summerhill, a democratic school in the east of England, before stopping off in Brazil to check out Semco, where workplace democracy is the name of the game. We will travel to Rojava, to explore life in a democratic army, and head to Spain to see why Podemos is giving liquid democracy a go. We shall travel back in time to see democracy at work in hunter-gatherer societies, tribal confederacies, the guilds, and on the commons. We will consider the case for participatory budgeting, deliberative democracy, collaborative hiring, community currencies, peer-to-peer lending, and much much more. The message is clear and concise: Democracy does not have to be a pipe dream. We have all the tools we need to rule ourselves.PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

The Conquest of Bread , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 452min

The Conquest of Bread is an 1892 book by the Russian anarcho-communist Peter Kropotkin: (Pyotr Alexeyevich Kropotkin, December 9, 1842 - February 8, 1921) a Russian activist, revolutionary, scientist, geographer and philosopher who advocated anarcho-communism. Originally written in French, it first appeared as a series of articles in the anarchist journal Le Révolté. It was first published in Paris with a preface by Élisée Reclus, who also suggested the title. Between 1892 and 1894, it was serialized in part in the London journal Freedom, of which Kropotkin was a co-founder. In the work, Kropotkin points out what he considers to be the defects of the economic systems of feudalism and capitalism and why he believes they thrive on and maintain poverty and scarcity. He goes on to propose a more decentralized economic system based on mutual aid and voluntary cooperation, asserting that the tendencies for this kind of organization already exist, both in evolution and in human society. The Conquest of Bread has become a classic of political anarchist literature. It was heavily influential on both the Spanish Civil War and the Occupy movement as well as Rojava (the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria). The publication of The Conquest of Bread was a watershed moment in anarchist history since it was the first time that a completed and in-depth theoretical work of anarcho-communist theory was available to the public. The publication of the text shifted the focus of anarchism from individualist, mutualist and collectivist strains to social and communist tendencies. This shift would prove to be one of the most enduring changes in the history of anarchism as anarchism developed throughout the 20th century with Kropotkin and The Conquest of Bread as firm reference points. ungekürzt.

Where is Ser (The Brave Lion) (eBook, ePUB)

A powerful story as seen through the eyes of an American veteran who in 2016 during the bloody civil war with ISIS flew alone to Iraq. There, he was able to join the Kurdish militia, YPG as a combat medic sneaking into Rojava, Syria. These pages are his personal story and they take you to the front lines of battle in a way that will make you smell the dirt. This book tears away the thin vale of war in a terrifyingly haunting way. "I, River Rainbow O'Mahoney Hagg Tekoser Azad, just a name only. A shadow who never honestly looked at myself. Never knew myself and so I died alone and ignorant. Buried alive in Manbij, Syria, like so many before me and so many more to come. "Why now? Please?" There is a deep sadness in realizing I had wasted my whole life not getting to know me before there was no me. Too late! A deep and penetrating sadness of all I wasted when I thought I had all the time in the world and I did not. So, like an idiot, I danced right up to the edge of the end without ever even knowing it." "This is the place where the disappeared aren't missing."
