88,95 kr. SHORT FICTION: In this fascinating book, Martin Wright has created four beautiful short stories. The originality, simplicity and yet, depth of the stories are remarkable. The reader is thrown into a world in which a festival, a library and a garden of beautiful flowers are one. Funny, pleasant, thought provoking all these stories are. May the reader be the judge. In the "THE MAN WHO ATE MY SHOES," we are introduced to a tough guy named Frank, who forcefully takes two loaves of bread away from his neighbour Eddie. But these are not your average breads. On the plastic container of each, it is written: Sun and Happiness Over Everyone-SHOE! Frank, thus, becomes the shoe thief and the shoe eater! Consequently, he develops bad dreams. In the dreams, a bunch of horses run after him and throw him on the ground, and then one of the horses takes Frank's shoes off his feet. He experiences pain when that happens. The bad dreams continue, affecting his mood and health until he ends up in therapy. The therapy sessions are hilarious. In the UVANTAS FAVOURITE, the world of a very different group of people has come together in a "Time Train". Among them, there is Newface who is a political science professor. He specializes in conducting coup d'état in different countries! Will he take advantage of the traveling back in time adventure to do the same in some place in history? Johnny Sosa is a mafia boss-turned writer. His book "A History of Madness, ' may have affected his own mind. And John, a unique man, is always after Uvantas Favourites: exquisite forms of beauty. He has found one in Nina. Nina is a beautiful woman with a sublimely beautiful voice. She is in love with John, but he is only after her voice, wanting to record it. Will she let him? Harry, Jack, and others have their own uniqueness. In "THE CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU," very unusual and thought-provoking discussions take place between two men. In the second part of this story, we witness a group of individuals-including one of the two men-running for the President in the USA. Parties like Vegetable Party, Anti-sausage, and Counter-fear Parties are among the contestants! Who shall win? And finally in the "IMAGINATION," a desperate man is rescued from his situation by his imagination. Yet, this imagination is an entity, a small shaped fellow, who talks!

339,95 kr. One of the classic and original works that paved the way for the development of the Restorative Justice movement. Martin Wright argues that the real need is for fundamental rethinking of crime and punishment, rather than short-term tinkering with a prison system that is in an intolerable state of crisis. Martin Wright starts by demonstrating that neither the conservative idea of deterrence through punishment nor the liberal ideal of rehabilitation has worked in practice. In their place he proposes the basis for a radical but carefully worked out practical philosophy which would place the emphasis on the offender making amends to the victim and society for the damage caused.

- Political Culture and National Identity Before the Great War
183,95 kr. This study examines the spread of socialism in late-Victorian and Edwardian Wales, paying particular attention to the relationship between socialism and Welsh national identity. Welsh opponents of socialism often claimed it to be a foreign import, whereas socialists often asserted that the Welsh were socialist by nature. This study - the first full-scale study of the influence of early socialism across all of Wales - demonstrates that the reality was more complex than either assertion would admit. Rather than focusing on the structural growth of socialism, the topic is discussed in terms of the spread of ideas and the development of a political culture. The study culminates in a discussion of attempts, in the period before the Great War, to create a specifically Welsh socialist tradition. In approaching the topic from this angle, this study restores a part of the lost diversity of British socialism that is of striking contemporary relevance.
