Philosophy and Resistance in the CrisisCOSTAS DOUZINASBirkbeck, University of London, UK
✤ A timely and provocative book on the current crisis in Europe by a leading radical thinker

spontaneous and leaderless events that disrupt political settlements imposed from above and attest
to the will to resist – a persevering trait of the human spirit
✤ Written by an author who is well known for his commentaries on the situation in Greece, Douzinas
argues that Greece, the birthplace of democracy, has once again become a key testing ground for
democracy, as popular resistance to the austerity package imposed on Greece leads to new forms of
contestation and struggle

Why Some Politicians Are More Dangerous Than OthersJAMES GILLIGANNew York University, USA
✤ Jim Gilligan is a leading expert on the social bases of interpersonal violence
✤ This highly original book is based on a simple discovery: Gilligan noticed that the national rates of
homicide and suicide in the US have fluctuated greatly since 1900, and he found that these
fluctuations correspond almost exactly to the presidential election cycle; the rates increase
dramatically during Republican administrations, and decline during Democratic administrations
✤ This book is Gilligan’s account of this hitherto unrecognized relationship between politics and death
rates, and his reflection on why it exists and what its implications are

Philosophy and Resistance in the CrisisCOSTAS DOUZINASBirkbeck, University of London, UK
✤ A timely and provocative book on the current crisis in Europe by a leading radical thinker
✤ Douzinas uses radical political theory to analyse the current protests in Greece and elsewhere as
spontaneous and leaderless events that disrupt political settlements imposed from above and attest
to the will to resist – a persevering trait of the human spirit
✤ Written by an author who is well known for his commentaries on the situation in Greece, Douzinas
argues that Greece, the birthplace of democracy, has once again become a key testing ground for
democracy, as popular resistance to the austerity package imposed on Greece leads to new forms of
contestation and struggle

Why Some Politicians Are More Dangerous Than OthersJAMES GILLIGANNew York University, USA
✤ Jim Gilligan is a leading expert on the social bases of interpersonal violence
✤ This highly original book is based on a simple discovery: Gilligan noticed that the national rates of
homicide and suicide in the US have fluctuated greatly since 1900, and he found that these
fluctuations correspond almost exactly to the presidential election cycle; the rates increase
dramatically during Republican administrations, and decline during Democratic administrations
✤ This book is Gilligan’s account of this hitherto unrecognized relationship between politics and death
rates, and his reflection on why it exists and what its implications are
