Hoe maken we een einde aan de zwarte pieten-discussie ? Het gedoe dat elk jaar weer op duikt en families en gezinnen en vrienden kringen en de hele maatschappij verdeelt ?

Kimberley Korenaar schreef een uit het hart gegrepen boekje dat het definitieve boek hier over wil zijn. Met een helder overzicht over de geschiedenis van hoe zwarte piet is ontstaan voor en tegen standers en hoe nu verder in Nederland ? Afgewisseld met prachtige zelf geschreven gedichten is dit een onpartijdige zoek tocht ...

When asked to name an archetypal love story, most people will reply 'Romeo & Juliet', although some say 'Tristan & Isolde' instead. Very few will come up with a classical example, and the reason for this is simple: when you say archetypal, it is assumed you mean love between a man and a woman, and instances of this in classical accounts are rare. The reason for this is also not hard to find: as it does now, 'love' in the ancient world meant the affection of equals, and given the inferior posi...

Six years of research with the purpose of having the untold account of Suriname’s LGBT history at long last comprehensively divulged and documented, has resulted in this publication:

Love – A History of Hate in Suriname - Hide, Flee or Suicide

Execution Extinction Existence Expression - An Insight into a Country’s Gay History.

In reality, we have been living in the same multipolar world for more than three decades. Europeans are only now again getting used to how such a world of great powers works. In the process, the European Union has rediscovered the importance of geopolitics. Without geopolitical awareness, crafting good strategy is impossible. But not every problem is geopolitical, and strategy co...

Nicholas Walliman's writing style is well loved and widely read. In this book the authors practically guide health and social care students through the process of doing a dissertation and how to achieve success with such a project.

Written by UK MEP Janice Atkinson, she gives an excoriating analysis of the politicians who pass damaging legislation that ordinary people have not sanctioned, were never in party manifestos or even discussed, the latter mainly because they have made discussions on certain subjects a hate crime.

Western governments, the European Union, the United Nations, the World Health Organisation and those that gather at DAVOS - the liberal left elite - are making decisions over the voters’ heads, that...
