John Paul King Ordre des livres (chronologique)

John E. King erläutert die besonderen Merkmale der postkeynesianischen Wirtschaft slehre, einer Schule, die in der Nachfolge des britischen Ökonomen John Maynard Keynes für eine sozial gerechtere Wirtschaft sordnung eintritt. Er beginnt mit einem Überblick über die Kernelemente der Theorie und erklärt, wie sie sich von anderen Schulen unterscheidet. Im Weiteren befasst er sich mit wichtigen methodischen Fragen, die die Postkeynesianer von den Mainstream-Ökonomen trennen, mit ihrer Behandlung von Unternehmen, ArbeiterInnen und Haushalten und ihrer Analyse von Wirtschaftswachstum und Entwicklung. Den postkeynesianischen Ansatz erläutert King insbesondere in Bezug auf Geld- und Steuerpolitik, Einkommen und Umwelt, wobei er den Kontroversen über Sparmaßnahmen und Austeritätspolitik und der Reform des Finanzsektors und des internationalen Währungssystems große Aufmerksamkeit widmet. Diese Einführung ist für ein breites Publikum geschrieben, das nach Alternativen zu sogenannten „Strukturreformen“ und zur makroökonomischen Idealisierung des Konzepts der „schwäbischen Hausfrau“ sucht.

The Seal Club is a three-novella collection by the authors Alan Warner, Irvine Welsh and John King, three stories that capture their ongoing interests and concerns, stories that reflect bodies of work that started with Morvern Callar, Trainspotting and The Football Factory - all best-sellers, all turned into high-profile films.

Every organization is composed of tribes—naturally occurring groups of between 20 and 150 people. Until now, only a few leaders could identify and develop their tribes, and those rare individuals were rewarded with loyalty, productivity, and industry-changing innovation. Tribal Leadership shows leaders how to assess, identify, and upgrade their tribes' cultures, one stage at a time. The result is an organization that can thrive in any economy.

Trois générations d'une même famille, trois hommes issus du milieu prolétaire britannique. Terry English, skinhead et propriétaire d'une petite société de taxis, doute de vivre jusqu'à cinquante ans, mais trouve de la joie dans le ska et sa belle assistante Angie. Il s'engage pleinement dans la réouverture de l'Union Jack Club. Nutty Ray, punk et employé de Terry, lutte contre sa haine de la société et passe son temps à provoquer les flics de Chelsea. Enfin, Lol, un adolescent skater punk de quinze ans, est en quête de son identité. À travers ces personnages, l'auteur explore l'émergence de la culture skin, ancrée dans la musique, notamment le reggae et le ska des années 1970, en rupture avec l'époque hippie. Cette culture s'exprime aussi à travers l'amour de la mode, de la bière et du pays. L'œuvre rend hommage au mouvement culturel britannique des années 1960, souvent mal compris et caricaturé, qui a suscité une peur sociale plus intense que le punk, en raison de son essence profondément prolétaire. L'auteur, reconnu pour son talent, se positionne aux côtés d'écrivains comme Irvine Welsh, en tant que voix du football et de la classe ouvrière anglaise.

Antoine Sfeir's Columbia World Dictionary of Islamism is a significant resource, now available in English for the first time. This comprehensive volume contains over two thousand entries detailing the history of Islamism and Islamic countries, offering a balanced perspective on events, organizations, and key figures, thereby illuminating a movement that has profoundly impacted both Muslim and Western societies. The dictionary covers the origins of Islamism and jihad across various regions, including Africa, Afghanistan, Egypt, Iran, and the United States. It profiles influential individuals such as Louis Farrakhan, Tariq Ramadan, and Hassan Al-Banna, alongside critical historical events like the U.S.S. Cole bombing and Syria's Hama massacre. It also discusses major organizations and movements, including the Taliban, Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood, as well as groups like Tablighi Jamaat and Al-Ahbash. A distinctive feature of this work is its exploration of Islam's antimodern aspects and its attempts to reclaim Muslim identity in various contexts. The volume raises pertinent questions about the nature of activist Islam, its potential for coexistence with Western societies, and the justification of terrorism in relation to the Quran. Sfeir, an expert in the field, navigates the complexities of Islam and Islamism through geopolitical, sociological, and historical lenses.

Following on from his bestselling study of violence, The Football Factory , John King considers Britain's other obsession - sex. Formed in the chemical mists of New Year's Eve, The Sex Division sees the once sacred act of procreation at its most material, as five men devise a system based on the sexual act. In this lager-soaked league, the most that women can offer a man is 4 points - unless, that is, she leaves her handbag unattended...From its base in the asset-stripped, emotionally castrated 90s, Headhunters shows the dreams of The Sex Division members breaking through the heavy media cloud of anorexic pin-ups and paedophile fashion. A missing brother, prophetic visions, a love affair, and tit-for-tat confrontation draw the characters out into the open - revealing the men behind the machismo, their need for mutual respect, and their recognition of the hidden or suppressed affinities.
