who once might have kicked back to enjoy their sunset years are hard at work. Underwater on mortgages or finding that Social Security comes up short, they're hitting the road in astonishing numbers, forming a new community of nomads: RV and van-dwelling migrant laborers, or "workampers." Building on her groundbreaking Harper's cover story, "The End of Retirement," which brought attention to these formerly settled members of the middle class, Jessica Bruder follows one such RVer, Linda, between physically taxing seasonal jobs and reunions of her new van-dweller family, or "vanily." Bruder tells a compelling, eye-opening tale of both the economy's dark underbelly and the extraordinary resilience, creativity, and hope of these hardworking, quintessential Americans?many of them single women?who have traded rootedness for the dream of a better lifePacked with bedrooms that wrap you in warmth, kitchens that start your day with sunshine, gardens that greet you with…

Par Jane Philpott. 2024
From one of Canada's most respected and high-profile health professionals (and former federal Minister of Health), a timely, practical, ambitious,…
and deeply personal call for action on health that sets out the roadmap to our future well-being.Jane Philpott has spent her life learning what makes people sick and what keeps people well. She has witnessed miracles in modern medicine. She has also watched children die of starvation in a world that has plenty of food. With Health for All, she sounds a clarion call for a radical disruption in a health care system that is broken—but not beyond repair. The vision is rooted in a deep-seated commitment to health equity.Decades ago, a few visionary Canadian leaders put laws in place to ensure health care insurance for all. But the structures to deliver that care were never fully developed as envisioned. As a result, our health systems are not comprehensive or well-coordinated. In the wake of a pandemic, we risk it all falling apart. More than six million people have no family doctor, nor any other access to primary care. Emergency rooms are routinely closed. Exhausted health workers wonder if it will ever get better. Some say we should hand health care over to the private sector. But to abandon our commitment to publicly funded health care now would only lead to more expensive and less equitable care. Philpott outlines a different solution—an ambitious, once-in-a-generation reset of health systems with universal access to primary care teams.What sets this book apart is that it’s more than a prescription for better medical care. Philpott looks at the big picture of health for all. This includes an intimate look at the personal roots of well-being: hope, belonging, meaning, and purpose. Then, through real-life stories, she examines the impact of the social determinants of health. Finally, she explains that none of this will happen without the political will to do the hard work of rebuilding a healthy society. The remedy we await is serious leadership to implement what we already know and to put the well-being of Canadians at the top of the agenda.Who's Afraid of Gender?
Par Judith Butler. 2024
Inflamed by the rhetoric of public figures, the "anti-gender ideology movement" has sought to nullify reproductive justice, undermine protections against…
sexual and gender violence, and strip trans and queer people of their right to pursue a life without fear of violence. Here, Judith Butler, the groundbreaking thinker whose iconic Gender Trouble redefined how we understand gender and sexuality, confronts the attacks on "gender" that have become central to right-wing movements today. Who's Afraid of Gender? examines how "gender" has become a phantasm for emerging authoritarian regimes, fascist formations, and trans-exclusionary feminists. In this vital, courageous book, Butler illuminates the concrete ways in which this phantasm of gender collects and displaces anxieties and fears of destruction, resulting in a movement that demonizes struggles for equality, fuels aggressive nationalism, and leaves millions of people vulnerable to subjugation. An essential intervention into one of the most fraught issues of our moment, Who's Afraid of Gender? is a bold call to refuse the alliance with authoritarian movements and to make a broad coalition with all those who fight against injustice. Imagining new possibilities for freedom and solidarity, Butler offers us a hopeful work of social and political analysis that is both timely and timeless—a book whose verve and rigor only they could deliver.Städtische Mega-Projekte in China: Der Fall Hongqiao
Par Yanpeng Jiang. 2024
Dieses Buch ist die erste systematische Darstellung von städtischen Megaprojekten in China, die sich mit deren Bau, Betrieb und Planung…
befasst. Es ist eine detaillierte Untersuchung der Planung und des Baus von Hongqiao und seiner Auswirkungen auf die Anwohner. Kurz gesagt, das Ziel dieses Buches ist es, den Planungs- und Entwicklungsprozess der Verkehrs- und Handelszone Hongqiao zu untersuchen, ihre Beziehung zur Stadtentwicklung und zur räumlichen Umstrukturierung in Shanghai zu erforschen und dabei die Art des städtischen Wandels im heutigen China zu kommentieren und zu kritisieren, der als eigentums- und infrastrukturgetrieben charakterisiert wird. Städtische Megaprojekte sind wohl das Symbol des unternehmerischen Urbanismus schlechthin, und es ist kein Zufall, dass sie in der ganzen Welt, nicht zuletzt in Ostasien, zu einem vertrauten Bestandteil der städtischen Szene geworden sind. Sie können sowohl als Folge der Deindustrialisierung führender Städte, zunächst in Nordamerikaund Europa und dann in Ostasien, als Reaktion auf den Übergang der Volkswirtschaften zum globalisierten Neoliberalismus betrachtet werden. Dieses Buch bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über die Hauptmerkmale der in Hongqiao gebildeten landbasierten städtischen Wachstumskoalition, indem es das Hongqiao-Projekt im Detail vorstellt und das jüngste Beispiel des wettbewerbsorientierten Ansturms auf städtische Projekte in Chinas größten Städten skizziert, der zur Ausbreitung neuer Finanzdistrikte in Beijing und Guangzhou geführt hat.This book explores the need for innovative approaches to administrative digitization, leveraging technologies such as AI, blockchain, and smart processes…
to meet citizens' expectations, with a particular focus on the role of Chief Digital Officers (CDOs) in driving successful digital transformations within public institutions. Administrative digitization requires fresh inputs to match the leaps seen in the industry sector, utilizing technologies like AI-driven automation, blockchain transactions, and security tools. Smart process solutions are seen as transformative in upholding service standards aligned with citizens' state expectations. Unlike commercial companies, collaboration offers those overseeing public sector digitization enhanced scaling opportunities by drawing from experiences in other regions and metropolises, directly applicable and reusable. In the public realm, digital strategies mirror legal and social conditions, necessitating adjustments and adaptation options for Chief Digital Officers as they lead digital transformation. Methodological focal points in task structure redesign, process optimization, and motivating actors yield diverse action areas for the CDO's new role in public institutions. This book explores the instruments, strategies, and attitudes necessary to successfully implement transformative initiatives in organizations, emphasizing proven concepts with practical applicability, enabling readers to derive their own interaction options as digital guidance leaders. The book is a concise introduction to the specific requirements for visionary designers driving dynamic changes in user-centric public services.
