Manche sagen: Wenn Mütter ihren Kindern antipatriarchales Wissen vermitteln würden, hätten wir schnell echte Gleichberechtigung. Dass es so einfach nicht ist, davon handelt dieser Essay. Denn während junge Frauen zunehmend feministisch denken, wenden sich junge Männer verstärkt rechtem und frauenfeindlichem Gedankengut zu. Misogyner Content ist überall, vor allem Jugendliche konsumieren ihn millionenfach. Was können wir dem in Familie und Gesellschaft entgegensetzen? Ist es wahr, dass Männer im Patriarchat nur Vorteile haben – oder zeigt ein genauerer Blick ein anderes Bild?

Once America's "arsenal of democracy," Detroit is now the symbol of the American urban crisis. In this reappraisal of America's racial and economic inequalities, Thomas Sugrue asks why Detroit and other industrial cities have become the sites of persistent racialized poverty. He challenges the conventional wisdom that urban decline is the product of the social programs and racial fissures of the 1960s.

The death sentence of slavery is still a harrowing reality for far too many—both young and old—despite the improvements of the 21st century.

Out of the Slave Fields shares the heartfelt, true stories of child labor today and the rescuers who have made it their mission to get justice for children.

For Jobs and Freedom: Race and Labor in America since 1865 describes the African American struggle to obtain equal rights in the workplace and organized labor's response to their demands. Award-winning historian Robert H. Zieger asserts that the promise of jobs was similar to the 40-acres-and-a-mule restitution pledged to African Americans during the Reconstruction era. The inconsistencies between rhetoric and action encouraged workers, both men and women, to organize themselves into unions to fight against unfair hiring practices and workplace discrimination.

The government constantly attacks unions, CEOs devote endless time and resources to undermining them, and many unions themselves are stuck in the past. Despite this, inspiring work is happening all the time, from fast food strikes and climate change campaigning to the modernization of unions for the digital age. Speaking to academics, experts and grassroots organizers from TUC, UNISON, ACORN, IWGB and more, Eve Livingston explores how young workers are organizing to demand fair workplaces, and reimagines what an inclusive union movement that represents us all might look like.

Combining classical Marxism, psychoanalysis, and the new labor history pioneered by E. P. Thompson and Herbert Gutman, David Roediger's widely acclaimed book provides an original study of the formative years of working-class racism in the United States. This, he argues, cannot be explained simply with reference to economic advantage; rather, white working-class racism is underpinned by a complex series of psychological and ideological mechanisms that reinforce racial stereotypes, and thus help to forge the identities of white workers in opposition to Blacks.
