Synopsis A Beautiful Police Story As Historical Perspective by :
Not so long ago, I completed and published a version of this book which I called A Beautiful Police Story Revisited-which was actually an updated revision of a book I published in 2002, then known as Blackjack and Jive-Five. No sooner did I get the more recent update of the book enclosed in a cover and published before all Hell began to break loose on a national level in the United States. In utter awe, I found myself repeatedly quoting New York Yankee Hall of Famer, Yogi Berra: "Deja Vu All Over Again!" I was recalling this within my own heart, mind and soul: Been There-Experienced All That! This Book-this Beautiful Police Story As Historical Perspective-pauses to ask this befuddling question: "What are we doing here again . . . and again . . . and again?" When this could be the greatest country ever envisioned, why do we keep suffering from an illness which is curable-and then insist upon perpetuating and finding new ways to spread it . . . again . . . again . . . and again? And indeed, ignorance, fueled by racism and intolerance is a terrible illness. Moreover, no other country in history has suffered from it as profoundly and as often as has the United States. This present book will be very much like A Beautiful Police Story Revisited-its most recent predecessor, . It will contain much of the same story and information as both that revision and its original source, Blackjack and Jive-Five. Yet the version now unfolding will more profoundly associate itself with present-day happenings, as well as clearly point out that there are no excuses as to why certain terrible things are still taking place in the world of America's policing. They should not be happening; there are no excuses for them. It Didn't Have To Be This Way.

Synopsis Beautiful NOW, Beautiful ME, Beyond Guilt, Blame and Shame by : Larry V. Murphy
This book began as the response to a wondrous feel good moment experienced by its author. He described it as such a wonderful glow that seemed like disclosure of an amazing secret he had always kept even from himself. It was a rare moment which the author felt as Beautiful NOW, wherein there was no guilt, no blame and no shame. There was only "Beautiful ME" within that Beautiful NOW, the author realized. He set out to attempt to describe the moment, as well as to attempt to review the long, widely eventful life that had brought him to "Beautiful NOW, Beautiful ME." The author had sought self love for a lengthy lifetime, and came to know he had attained that realization, even if only in a brief instant. Free at Last, was the joyful response.

Synopsis De Facto Trauma Reconsidered by : Faten Haouioui
This collection of essays revises contemporary trauma theory, from Freudian/Caruthian and post-structuralist perspectives. While Western trauma theory is often theorized according to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), this volume discusses different forms of trauma that target decolonisation theories in Arab-Maghrebean and Afro-American contexts and Chinese narratives on courtesans. The contributors to this book also scrutinize the artistic representation of trauma in poetry and drama, adopting a cross-cultural approach to trauma theory.

Synopsis Revisiting Gendered States by : Swati Parashar
Two decades ago, V. Spike Peterson's Gendered States asked what difference gender makes in international relations and the construction of the sovereign state system. This book connects the earlier debates of Peterson's book with the gendered state today, one that exists within a globalized and increasingly securitized world. Bringing together an international group of contributors from the Global South, United States, Europe, and Australia, this volume answers three overarching questions. First, it answers whether the concept of a "gendered state" is generic or if some states are particularly gendered in their identities and interests, and with what implications for the type of citizenship, society, and international security. Second, it looks at the continued theoretical significance of the gendered state for current IR scholarship. And, finally, it explains to what extent postcolonial states are distinctive from metropolitan states with regard to gender. Including scholars from International Relations, Postcolonial Studies, and Development Studies, this volume collectively theorizes the modern state and its intricate relationship to security, identity politics, and gender.
