Since October 2023, Israel has carried out one of the most brutal military onslaughts in modern history on the Gaza Strip, in response to the Hamas-led attacks of October 7. But Gaza had long been in crisis even prior to the current violence, now widely recognized as genocidal. For seventy-seven years, the Palestinian people have endured displacement, occupation, collective punishment, and ethnic cleansing―with those in Gaza often bearing the brunt of it.

Story0
The Second World War was the most destructive conflict in history. It left Europe in ruins, its economies severely damaged and millions of its people facing malnutrition, its political systems shaken if not destroyed. Yet three decades later its economies had recovered; it largely appeared politically stable; its inhabitants generally were well housed and well fed. Then at the end of the 1980s, the postwar settlement disintegrated, and a new chapter in Europe's postwar history had begun.

Russia and China are increasingly revisionist in their regions. The Middle East appears to be unraveling. And many Americans question why the United States ought to lead. What will great power competition look like in the decades ahead? What impact will geopolitics have on globalization? And what strategy should the United States pursue to succeed in an increasingly competitive world? In this book, Thomas Wright explains how major powers will compete fiercely even as they try to avoid war with each other.

On the seventy-fifth anniversary of Kristallnacht comes this untold story of a teenager whose act of defiance would have dire international consequences. On the morning of November 7, 1938, a seventeen-year-old Jewish refugee, Herschel Grynszpan, walked into the German embassy in Paris and in an act of desperation assassinated Ernst vom Rath, a low-level Nazi diplomat. He did it, he said, out “of love for my parents and for my people.”

Story1
Tadeusz Borowski’s concentration camp stories were based on his own experiences surviving Auschwitz and Dachau. In spare, brutal prose he describes a world where where the will to survive overrides compassion, and prisoners eat, work, and sleep a few yards from where others are murdered; where the difference between human beings is reduced to a second bowl of soup, an extra blanket, or the luxury of a pair of shoes with thick soles; and where the line between normality and abnormality vanishes.

This third and final volume of the unexpurgated diaries of Sir Henry 'Chips' Channon begins as the Second World War is turning in the Allies' favour. It ends with a prematurely aged Chips descending into poor health but still socially active and able to turn a pointed phrase about the political events that swirl around him and the great and the good with whom he mingles.

Con il termine Ventennio, in Italia, ci si riferisce al periodo fascista, vent'anni, appunto, durante i quali Benito Mussolini ricoprì ininterrottamente la carica di capo del governo. Tutto cominciò in una piovosa giornata di fine ottobre, il 30 ottobre 1922, quan-do il re Vittorio Emanuele III affidò al leader di una forza politica di minoranza l'incarico di formare il governo. Da quel lontano ottobre del 1922 fino al 1943, i fascisti avrebbero tenuto le redini del Paese.

La figura di Adolf Hitler è sicuramente una delle più criticate e studiate del Novecento. La sua incredibile popolarità e il suo indiscutibile carisma lo portarono a diventare il leader massimo di una nazione in crisi dopo la disfatta della Prima Guerra Mondiale. Questo avvenne anche grazie al neonato Ministero delle Propaganda che, sotto la guida di Joseph Goebbels, plasmò le menti del popolo tedesco a favore della guerra.

Story0
Questo percorso inizia e si dipana all'interno delle logge massoniche italiane, tra i primi anni Sessanta e i primi anni Ottanta. Ripercorre la storia delle vicende legate a Licio Gelli e alla famigerata loggia massonica Propaganda 2, da tutti conosciuta come P2. La verità circa la P2 non può che essere multiforme, ambigua, contraddittoria, come in ogni storia che volutamente si ammanta di mistero, segretezza e omertà. Un silenzio che copre la reputazione di centinaia di uomini e che risalirebbe alla notte dei tempi, un silenzio squarciato da anni di indagini che hanno portato alla luce storie, nomi e intrighi tra i più scottanti della storia d'Italia.

Il 9 maggio 1978, il corpo di Aldo Moro fu ritrovato in un'automobile Renault 4 rossa a Roma in via Caetani, strada vicina sia a piazza del Gesù (dov'era la sede nazionale della Democrazia Cristiana), sia a via delle Botteghe Oscure (dove era la sede nazionale del Partito Comunista Italiano). Cinque processi, dal 1983 al 1996, non hanno fatto piena luce sul sequestro Moro. Qui cercheremo di descrivere quello che è successo, ciò che è stato scoperto nel corso degli anni, i fatti emersi durante le indagini. Una ricostruzione per quanto possibile oggettiva, basata soprattutto sull'esame delle carte processuali e sulle relazioni delle principali perizie degli esperti.

Il periodo che va dalla conquista del potere di Mussolini, nell'ottobre del 1923, alla sua caduta nel luglio 1943 è passato alla storia con il nome di "Ventennio fascista" e avrebbe mutato la politica, l'economia e la vita sociale degli italiani. Il fascismo non fu un semplice partito, una corrente di pensiero o un movimento conservatore. Fu prima il sogno, poi il tentativo, di Mussolini di cambiare l'Italia.
