The momentous influx of Mexican undocumented workers into the United States over the last decades has spurred new ways of thinking about immigration. Pierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo's incisive book enlarges our understanding of these recently arrived Americans and uncovers the myriad ways that women and men recreate families and community institutions in a new land.Hondagneu-Sotelo argues that people do not migrate as a result of concerted household strategies, but as a consequence of negotiations often fraught with conflict in families and social networks. Migration and settlement transform long-held ideals and lifestyles. Traditional patterns are reevaluated, and new relationships-often more egalitarian-emerge. Women gain greater personal autonomy and independence as they participate in public life and gain access to both social and economic influence previously beyond their reach.Bringing to life the experiences of undocumented immigrants and delineating the key role of women in newly established communities, Gendered Transitions challenges conventional assumptions about gender and migration. It will be essential reading for demographers, historians, sociologists, and policymakers."I've opened my eyes. Back there, they say 'no.' You marry, and no, you must stay home. Here, it's different. You marry, and you continue working. Back in Mexico, it's very different. There is very much machismo in those men."-A Mexican woman living in the United States

The demand for equality has been at the heart of the politics of the Left in the twentieth century, but what did theorists and politicians on the British Left mean when they said they were committed to 'equality'? How did they argue for a more egalitarian society? Which policies did they think could best advance their egalitarian ideals? Equality and the British Left provides the first comprehensive answers to these questions. It charts debates about equality from the progressive liberalism and socialism of the early twentieth century to the arrival of the New Left and revisionist social democ.

The economist and historian Deirdre Nansen McCloskey has been best known recently for her Bourgeois Era trilogy, a vigorous defense, unrivaled in scope, of commercially tested betterment. Its massive volumes, The Bourgeois Virtues, Bourgeois Dignity, and Bourgeois Equality, solve Adam Smith’s puzzle of the nature and causes of the wealth of nations, and of the moral sentiments of modernity. The world got rich, she argues, not chiefly by material causes but by an idea and a sentiment, a new admiration for the middle class and its egalitarian liberalism. For readers looking for a distillation of McCloskey’s magisterial work, Leave Me Alone and I’ll Make You Rich is what you’ve been waiting for. In this lively volume, McCloskey and the economist and journalist Carden bring together the trilogy’s key ideas and its most provocative arguments. The rise of the west, and now the rest, is the story of the rise of ordinary people to a dignity and liberty inspiring them to have a go. The outcome was an explosion of innovation after 1800, and a rise of real income by an astounding 3,000 percent. The Great Enrichment, well beyond the conventional Industrial Revolution, did not, McCloskey and Carden show, come from the usual suspects, capital accumulation or class struggle. It came from the idea of economic liberty in Holland and the Anglosphere, then Sweden and Japan, then Italy and Israel and China and India, an idea that bids fair in the next few generations to raise up the wretched of the earth. The original shift to liberalism arose 1517 to 1789 from theological and political revolutions in northwest Europe, upending ancient hierarchies. McCloskey and Carden contend further that liberalism and “innovism” made us better humans as well as richer ones. Not matter but ideas. Not corruption but improvement. Leave Me Alone and I’ll Make You Rich draws in entertaining fashion on history, economics, literature, philosophy, and popular culture, from growth theory to the Simpsons. It is the perfect introduction for a broad audience to McCloskey’s influential explanation of how we got rich. At a time when confidence in the economic system is under challenge, the book mounts an optimistic and persuasive defense of liberal innovism, and of the modern world it has wrought.

L’autogestion est une forme d’organisation collective où chaque membre du groupe prend part au processus décisionnel qui s’exprime dans la recherche de consensus. Depuis ses débuts, la pensée libertaire propose, à travers ce type d’organisation, de quitter le paradigme capitalisme. Elle rejette non seulement la domination et l’exploitation de l’humain sur l’humain mais aussi l’emprise de l’humain sur son environnement qui conduit à sa destruction. Depuis trois ans, en Grèce, le Refugee Village for Freedom est un collectif autogestionnaire de réfugié.e.s qui pratique une agriculture en marge des circuits conventionnels. La souveraineté alimentaire pour le collectif est visée tout comme la solidarité, avec l’apport gratuit et régulier de produits sain et frais à plus d’un millier de réfugié.e.s vivant à Athènes. À travers une enquête sur le terrain et d’entretiens qualitatifs avec certains de ses membres, ce travail va analyser l’apprentissage du Refugee Village for Freedom dont le fondement libertaire offre un potentiel de transformation sociale rendu possible par l’autogestion. Self-organisation is a form of collective organisation where each member of the group participates in the decision-making process as a way of obtaining consensus. Since its inception, libertarian thought has proposed, through this type of organisation, to depart from the capitalism paradigm. It rejects not only the domination and exploitation of humans over humans but also the control of humans over their environment that leads to its destruction. For the past three years, in Greece, the Refugee Village for Freedom is a refugee collective based on the principles of self-organisation. In light of this, this collective has tended to practice a form of farming outside the conventional agriculture. Food sovereignty for the collective is targeted, along- side solidarity, with the free and regular supply of healthy and fresh products to more than a thousand refu- gees living in Athens. Through the use of field research and qualitative interviews with some of its members, this work will analyze the learnings observed from the Refugee Village for Freedom whose libertarian foun- dation offers a potential for social transformation, made possible by self-organisation.
