Political EmotionsWhy Love Matters for JusticeMartha C. Nussbaum

H A Times Higher Education Book of the Week

“[Nussbaum] maps out the routes by which men and women who

begin in self-interest and ingrained prejudice can build a society

in which what she calls ‘public emotions’ operate to enlarge the

individual’s ‘circle of concern’…It is one of the virtues of Nuss-

baum’s book that she neither shrinks from sentimentality…nor

fears being judged philosophically unsophisticated.”

—Stanley Fish, New York Times

“Nussbaum has created valuable space for love and human im-

perfection to be weighed more heavily in the search for justice.”

—Geraldine Van Bueren, Times Higher Education

Fire and AshesSuccess and Failure in PoliticsMichael Ignatieff

H An Independent Book of the Week

“[A] compelling and curiously moving account of [Ignatieff’s] trau-

matic experiences near the very summit of Canadian politics…For

a clear-eyed, sharply observed, mordant but ultimately hopeful

account of contemporary politics this memoir is hard to beat.”

—David Runciman, The Guardian

“[A] brutally frank and at times self-lacerating book…Ignatieff

does have something important to teach us.”

Reflections on JudgingRichard A. Posner

“[Reflections on Judging] is about what judges should do when

confronted with complexity. Like the rest of us, judges face

an increasingly bewildering world, marked by daily advances

in such areas as social media, the sciences and globalization.

Unlike the rest of us, judges must make decisions that enforce

their under-standing—or misunderstanding—of that complex-

ity onto millions…Reflections on Judging is spangled with

legal cases in which Posner, faced with disorder, triumphantly

cuts through the noise.”

Religion without GodRonald Dworkin

H Ronald Dworkin Is Winner of the Holberg International Memorial Prize

“[Ronald Dworkin’s] ambition is to effect not a shift in any

particular position but a transformation in the way we see

the world and in the stance we take toward the most basic

features of our existence…A deep and precious book.”

—Moshe Halbertal, New Republic

“Dworkin is keen to show that—even for people who call them-

selves atheist—there remains a sense or a value to the world

which bears so much in common with attitudes we call religious

or spiritual.”

H Bruno Latour Is Winner of the Holberg International Memorial Prize

“[An Inquiry into Modes of Existence] is not just a book; it is

also a project in interactive metaphysics. In other words, a

book, plus website…Intrigued readers of Latour’s text can go

online and find themselves drawn into a collaborative project…

Latour’s work makes the world—sorry, worlds—interesting again.

And, best of all, it is a project to which you can attach yourself.”

The Society of EqualsPierre RosanvallonTranslated by Arthur Goldhammer

Rosanvallon, one of France’s leading public intellectuals, has

stepped into this minefield to provide a thoughtful work.”

—Daniel Bel-Ami, Financial Times

“Pierre Rosanvallon takes fresh stock of the ideal of equality…

An ambitious bid to revive egalitarian thought in a global econ-

omy that no longer recognizes any moral or political legitimacy

in schemes to redistribute wealth.”

Anthropology Confronts the Problems of the Modern WorldClaude Lévi-StraussForeword by Maurice Olender

Translated by Jane Marie Todd

“There is much to admire [here]…Still fizzing with ideas as he

approached eighty, Claude Lévi-Strauss never relented on

his increasingly lonely structuralist quest. His fascination

for Japanese traditions…stemmed in part from his feeling of

alienation from modernity.”

—Patrick Wilcken, Times Literary Supplement

H A New Scientist Best Science Book of the Year

“Kopenawa provides a fascinating glimpse into his life as well as

into Yanomami cultural beliefs and practices, setting his story

against the various threats the Yanomami people and their forest

have faced since the 1960s…Kopenawa’s story is eloquent, en-

gaging, and thought-provoking, exuding heartfelt wisdom. This

extraordinary and richly detailed work is an outstanding explica-

tion of the Yanomami worldview as well as a plea to all people to

respect and preserve the rain forest.”

and decolonization—and their complex impact on native

lives…A fascinating cultural exploration.”

audience and demonstrates the range, generosity, and acuity of

his thinking…This book is destined to become as significant for

anthropology and cultural studies as its predecessors.”

Evil MenJames Dawes

H One of Maclean’s Top 20 Books of the Year

“[An] unsettlingly brilliant book.”

—Brian Bethune, Maclean’s

“James Dawes’s commendable new book, Evil Men, reflects,

carefully and nervously, on the subject of human cruelty…For

anyone interred in the bloody horizons of the human condition,

it makes for essential reading.”

—Christopher Byrd, Washington Post

“Dawes juxtaposes the soldiers’ stories with a discussion of

our own approach to contemporary war crimes, and although

he doesn’t draw them explicitly, unsettling parallels emerge.”

—Andrew Stark, Times Literary Supplement

Metamorphoses of the CityOn the Western DynamicPierre ManentTranslated by Marc LePain

“The culmination of thirty years of reflection on modern politics,

Metamorphoses of the City is Pierre Manent’s Summa. By tracing

the transformation of Western political form from the Greek city-

state to the nation state, then to our increasingly post-national

world, [Pierre Manent] raises profound questions about the

future of self-government. A beautifully conceived and deeply

unsettling book.”

Israel Has MovedDiana Pinto

H A Times Literary Supplement Book of the Year

“Diana Pinto delineates the physical landscape of present-day

Israel—its highways, restaurants and shopping malls—using it to

describe the country as it is, not as the rest of the world would

like it to be.”

—John Reed, Financial Times

“Pinto’s strength as a writer is her penetrating understanding of

what lies beneath the surface of the clichés…Pinto has written

about the country rather than being drawn, as so many intellec-

tuals are, to the seamline, the conflict.”

—Linda Grant, The Independent

Do Muslim Women Need Saving?Lila Abu-Lughod

“Saving Muslim women is now a global undertaking in which

the participants are both Muslim and non-Muslim. [Lila Abu-

Lughod’s] focus on analyzing how individual Muslim women ex-

perience freedom, rights and constraints brings a much-needed

perspective…This book is destined to unsettle the convictions of

those concerned with saving Muslim women.”

—Madawi Al-Rasheed, Times Higher Education

“In accessible, lucid prose…the author recommends observa-

tion over moral crusades, stating: ‘Anyone seriously interested

in Muslim women’s rights must follow them as they move.’ This

book is an excellent place to begin.”

Justice InterruptedThe Struggle for Constitutional Government in the Middle East

Elizabeth F. Thompson

“It’s easy to assume that religiously driven movements are

all antidemocratic—and indeed, some have proven so in prac-

tice…But Thompson offers a more nuanced view, showing that

many of these religious movements have internalized central

elements of liberal discourse.”

Muslim ZionPakistan as a Political IdeaFaisal Devji

“A detailed analysis of the various political and ideological forces

that were at play in the buildup to Pakistan’s creation.”

—Hannah Harris Green, Los Angeles Review of Books

“A remarkable book…Devji has persuasively interpreted Jinnah’s

view of Pakistan as an anti-territorial, universalistic conception of

the nation. Summoning Pakistan into existence was an act of pure

will that required the rejection of history, soil, and culture—all the

usual grounds on which to claim nationhood, and which for Jin-

nah subverted the unity he claimed for India’s Muslims.”

—Sunil Khilnani, New Republic

racy, Bose sees the country’s future prosperity and stability as

anything but assured.”

—Andrew J. Nathan, Foreign Affairs

seven decades since the country won its independence from the

British…Bose’s work fills in the connections needed to understand

the political complexities of India’s democracy.”

Legal Integration of IslamA Transatlantic Comparison

Christian Joppke and John Torpey

“This short but engaging and provocative work provides an

overview of the legal interaction of Islam with the liberal

state in France, Germany, Canada, and the U.S.…This book’s

strength is its analysis of the two European cases, where

the focus is on law and the legal integration of Islam into the

existing constitutional structure.”

Gandhi’s Printing PressExperiments in Slow ReadingIsabel Hofmeyr

“Fascinating…Isabel Hofmeyr discusses and analyses the

origin and nature of [periodicals published by Gandhi],

focusing on Indian Opinion and Hind Swaraj, and shows

how their specific nature reflected Gandhian thought. Of

particular interest is Hofmeyr’s slant towards Gandhi’s

views on reading, which resonates with our fragmented,

frantic age.”

knowledge and experience accumulated through close

engagement with East Asia during an extraordinarily

eventful half century, Dwight Perkins presents a pan-

oramic overview of the region’s economic transforma-

tion from the 1950s onwards. His brisk, lucid, and finely

textured account of rapid progress in some countries

Legal OrientalismChina, the United States, and Modern Law

Teemu Ruskola

“A provocative book on legal

orientalism…On the one hand,

it is a historical analysis that

illuminates important aspects

of nineteenth- and early-

twentieth-century world his-

tory. On the other, this book

is urgently contemporary,

speaking to interest in legal

studies and the social sci-

ences about the place of law

and legal reform in present-

day China.”

— Mae Ngai,

Columbia University










The People’s CarA Global History of the Volkswagen BeetleBernhard Rieger

H Commended, Fraenkel Prize, Category A, Wiener Library for the Study of Holocaust and Genocide

“[An] illuminating and elegantly written history.”

—Richard J. Evans, London Review of Books

“Bernhard Rieger’s The People’s Car conveys how inextricably

20th-century politics, culture and economics are linked…The

story of ‘the people’s car’ is, of course, interesting in its own

right—its commission, design, post-war production and world-

wide success. But what is most intriguing is how a consumer

commodity became an icon that, over decades, represented

something different for a variety of countries and generations.

Rieger shows this to informative and illuminating effect.”

—Ulrike Zitzlsperger, Times Higher Education


KosherPrivate Regulation in the Age of Industrial FoodTimothy D. Lytton

“Timothy Lytton’s wide-ranging account brings to bear a valuable

new perspective on the kosher food industry. Harnessing the law

and biochemistry, information technology and history—includ-

ing, most memorably, the vinegar scandal of 1986—his lucid

new book makes clear that keeping kosher has as much to do

with the institutions of modern America as it does with age-old

precepts.”

of cultural anthropology sure to draw many readers.”

Industry and RevolutionSocial and Economic Change in the Orizaba Valley, MexicoAurora Gómez-Galvarriato

“Industry and Revolution is an important addition to both the liter-

ature on the economic history of Mexico and the literature on the

economic effects of civil wars and revolutions. It is a powerful

demonstration of how careful archival research can be marshaled

to answer big social science questions.”

— Stephen Haber, Stanford University

“A superb economic history of the Mexican textile industry that

also addresses the critical issues of politics and workers’ welfare.”

The Fracturing of the American Corporate EliteMark S. Mizruchi

“Offers a compelling history of how the American corpo-

rate elite reconciled itself to the New Deal, and then, in

the aftermath of World War II, signed on to a vision of

America in which government played a muscular and

essential role in steering the economy and underwriting

the well-being of the middle class…Mizruchi describes

a business elite that has become fragmented, irrelevant,

and powerless to solve the problems—like mounting na-

tional debt, decaying infrastructure, and failing schools—

that, in the long-term, will hurt the vested interests of

corporate America.”

—Chrystia Freeland, Democracy


Gentlemen BankersThe World of J. P. MorganSusie J. Pak

“Gentlemen Bankers is a window into a world that, for one

fleeting moment, dominated American finance. By con-

centrating on the nonfinancial aspects of that world Pak

greatly enriches our understanding of the entire era.”

—John Steele Gordon, Wall Street Journal

“Pak writes clearly and makes a strong case that the

Morgan bank should be considered in its social as well

as its economic context.”

applies a relatively new ana-

lytical technique to map the

erating large economic gains that private companies had

been unable to seize on their own.”

several-decade enterprise

by the author to case out,

document, and explain the

relations of representation

The Fissured WorkplaceWhy Work Became So Bad for So Many and What Can Be Done to Improve ItDavid Weil

“The Fissured Workplace paints a striking picture of the

underside of the U.S. labor market: the workers who

service expensive hotels but need food stamps and

income support for their families to survive; the ‘inde-

pendent contractors’ who clean office buildings under

contracts that pay below minimum wages; and hundreds

of thousands of others struggling in an economy where

you work not for branded name companies in the open

light but for subcontractors behind the scenes. Weil

documents the growth of the fissured labor market, tells

us how it contributes to the impoverishment of America,

and offers ways to make matters better. You will think

differently about the world of work after reading this

marvelous book.”

What Unions No Longer DoJake Rosenfeld

ly that the decline of American unions is a chief cause

read.”

— Harold Meyerson, Washington Post columnist and Editor-at-Large for The American Prospect


Rethinking Sovereign DebtPolitics, Reputation, and Legitimacy in Modern Finance

Odette Lienau

“Rethinking Sovereign Debt

is the most important book

on sovereign borrowing in

The Tragedy of Religious FreedomMarc O. DeGirolami

“DeGirolami’s is a thoughtful and sophisticated medita-

tion on the protean relationship between law and faith in

a society committed to religious freedom. His intellec-

tual and cultural influences are broad and rewarding;

his style is rich and accessible; and his critique of both

theoretical foundationalism and skepticism is profound

and compelling. The Tragedy of Religious Freedom is

an important book that will undoubtedly influence and

enrich this discussion for years to come.”

—Ian Bartrum, Journal of Church and State

“A sophisticated and thoughtful book, which offers fresh

insights on a central question of religious liberty.”

— Philip Hamburger, author of Separation of Church and State

The Rise and Decline of American Religious FreedomSteven D. Smith

Familiar accounts of religious freedom in the United

States often tell a story of visionary founders who broke

from the centuries-old patterns of Christendom to estab-

lish a political arrangement committed to secular and re-

ligiously neutral government. These novel commitments

were supposedly embodied in the religion clauses of

the First Amendment. But this story is largely a fairytale,

Steven D. Smith says in this incisive examination of a

much-mythologized subject. He makes the case that the

American achievement was not a rejection of Christian

commitments but a retrieval of classic Christian ideals of

freedom of the church and freedom of conscience.

Democracy DisfiguredOpinion, Truth, and the People

Nadia Urbinati

“A beautifully wrought reflec-

tion on the ‘disfigurement’ of

democracy. Deploying the

ancient analogy and image

of the body—as in ‘body

politic’—Urbinati traces

the theoretical sources and

consequences of three

deformations that have been

introduced over time: the

epistemic, the populist, and

the plebiscitarian. All, the

author argues, are ‘negative

mutations of the procedural

character of democracy.’”

Stephen C. Neff

“Justice among Nations is by far the best general survey of the

history of international law to date.”

— Randall Lesaffer, author of European Legal History

our even more pressing need to understand what international

law is and what it can accomplish for our common humanity.”

Originalism and the Good ConstitutionJohn O. McGinnis and Michael B. Rappaport

“This book is a fascinating and innovative defense of originalism.

Unlike some other originalists, who defend the theory because

they claim it is the only feasible way to interpret legal texts, Mc-

Ginnis and Rappaport argue that originalism is superior to living

constitutionalism because it produces better consequences, in

the form of legal rules that benefit more people over time…This

is the best book on originalism in a long time.”

—Ilya Somin, The Volokh Conspiracy

“[This] book will surely play a prominent role in the ongoing

debate over originalism.”

Long Wars and the ConstitutionStephen M. Griffin

“In this troubling book, Stephen Griffin persuasively demon-

strates the inadequacy of the Constitution as a basis for exercis-

ing militarized global leadership. More troubling still, he shows

that in pretending otherwise, successive administrations, in

collaboration with Congress, have done untold damage to our

political system while forging national security policies that are

deeply defective.”

—Andrew J. Bacevich, author of Washington Rules

“Long Wars and the Constitution is one of the most important

books on constitutional theory in a long time and should fun-

damentally reshape the debate about presidential authority to

embark on wars without Congressional approval.”

—Sanford Levinson, author of Framed

—Robert W. Gordon, Stanford Law School

“A moving account of real communities—of fearful residents strug-

gling to control fragile city blocks, visionaries willing to risk ev-

erything for justice, and hustlers driven to profit from the hopes

and hatreds that have defined the American experience.”

The Classical Liberal ConstitutionThe Uncertain Quest for Limited GovernmentRichard A. Epstein

Steering clear of well-worn debates between defenders of

originalism and proponents of a living Constitution, Epstein em-

ploys close textual reading, historical analysis, and political and

economic theory to urge a return to the classical liberal theory of

governance that animated the framers’ original text, and to the

limited government this theory supports.

LegalityScott J. Shapiro

“Legality is the most important contribution about the nature

of law in recent years and a book that raises the bar for future

work in jurisprudence. With admirable clarity, Shapiro argues

that legal systems should not be understood simply in terms

of rules, but instead as highly complex tools for creating and

applying plans. His account offers an illuminating alternative

to the literature and challenges much received wisdom.”

the presidency will continue to grow in political influence in the

coming years, opening possibilities for abuse of power if not

outright despotism.”

Tagore, the Bengali poet and Nobel laureate. But they will also

encounter much less well-known and equally distinguished

figures…As an anthology of Indian political debates, Makers

of Modern India makes for instructive reading.”

Merchants, Markets, and Exchange in the Pre-Columbian WorldEditEd by Kenneth G. Hirth and Joanne Pillsbury

This book examines the structure, scale, and complexity

of economic systems in the pre-Hispanic Americas, with

a focus on the central highlands of Mexico, the Maya

Lowlands, and the central Andes. The book explores

various dimensions of these ancient economies, includ-

ing the presence of marketplaces, the operation of

merchants (and other individuals) who exchanged and

moved goods across space, the role of artisans who

produced goods as part of their livelihood, and the trade

and distribution networks through which goods were

bought, sold, and exchanged.

Viewing the MoreaLand and People in the Late Medieval PeloponneseEditEd by Sharon E. J. Gerstel

The fourteen essays in Viewing the Morea focus on the

late medieval Morea (Peloponnese), beginning with the

bold attempt of Western knights to establish a kingdom

on foreign soil. Reinserted into this tale of Crusader

foundation are the large numbers of Orthodox villagers

who shared the region and created their own narrative of

an eternal and sacred empire generated by the pains of

loss and the hopes of refoundation. The authors look at

the Morea and its people in the broadest possible man-

ner and with careful attention to written and material

evidence, historiography, economic networks, and the

making—or retelling—of myths.

Indigenous (In)JusticeHuman Rights Law and Bedouin Arabs in the Naqab/Negev

EditEd by Ahmad Amara, Ismael Abu-Saad, and Oren Yiftachel

The indigenous Bedouin Arab population in the Naqab/Negev

desert in Israel has experienced a history of displacement,

intense political conflict, and cultural disruption, along with

recent rapid modernization, forced urbanization, and migra-

tion. This volume of essays highlights international, national,

and comparative law perspectives and explores the legal and

human rights dimensions of land, planning, and housing is-

sues, as well as the economic, social, and cultural rights of in-

digenous peoples. Within this context, the essays examine the

various dimensions of the “negotiations” between the Bedouin

Arab population and the State of Israel.
