***LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR NON-FICTION***IN SEPTEMBER 2022, in response to the death of Mahsa Jina Amini in police custody, after being arrested and beaten for not wearing her hijab properly, thousands of Iranians - mostly women - took to the streets in one of the countrys largest uprisings in decades: the Woman, Life, Freedom movement.Despite the threat of imprisonment or death for her work as a journalist, Fatemeh Jamalpour joined the throngs of people fighting to topple Irans religious extremist regime. Meanwhile, Nilo Tabrizy was covering the protests from New York, knowing that spotlighting the brutality of the Iranian government meant she would not be able to safely return to her birth country.Though they had only met once, united by sisterhood and shared purpose, Nilo and Fatemeh corresponded constantly as they worked to shed light on what was happening on the ground. For the Sun After Long Nights is their extraordinary and deeply moving chronicle of the spirit and legacy of this historic movement, as well as the history, geopolitics and influences that led to this pivotal moment.

Este libro es el resultado de una investigación sobre la movilización estudiantil universitaria en Colombia, por alcanzar la transformación radical y absoluta de la sociedad y del sistema político en los ultimos cuatro decenios del siglo XX. Sin embargo, a la par con la puesta en marcha de la utopia antisistemica revolucionaria en las universidades publicas colombianas de los años sesenta del siglo pasado y sus consecuentes transformaciones en los decenios siguientes, tambien operan cambios que atraviesan la esfera de la vida academica, politica y social de los claustros universitarios. Esta compleja situacion es la que el lector encontrara en esta publicacion. Un trabajo que implico delimitar el escenario de indagacion e ir desde los conceptos hasta las propias experiencias universitarias elegidas, y recurrir a la memoria individual y social de los protagonistas y los testigos de aquella epoca.

*LONGLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR CONSERVATION 2025Reading Hannahs story, compellingly told, you will fall in love with these increasingly endangered birds, true masters of the sky. Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE The inspirational story of a bird lover who became a nature-warrior in a David v Goliath battle to save swifts from extinction.Nature Needs You tells the compelling story of how Hannah, without campaigning experience, funding or contacts, set out to save swifts from extinction in the UK. Her mission is to change the law and make swift bricks mandatory so that the birds who nest in our walls will have a future in Britain. Nature Needs You delves into the highs and lows of trying to win hearts and minds, grab the news agenda with her naked Feather Speech, win Caroline Lucas and Lord Zac Goldsmiths support, navigate meetings with Secretaries of State and debates in the Houses of Parliament, survive the trolling and midnight self-doubt and raise a petition with the requisite 100,000 signatures for a Parliamentary debate. At stake, with a decline in numbers of over 60% since 1995, are the birds who have become our symbol of summer, the swifts screaming in the skies above us. Steeped in love for the wild, by a talented writer, Nature Needs You is a clarion call to save the nature on our doorsteps and to prove that passion can be a superpower in bringing change to nature-depleted Britain. Raw, funny, self-deprecating and unstoppable in turn, this is nature writing with the pace of a thriller. Hannah is now knocking at the door of the new Labour Secretary of State for Housing, in the hope that, where Rishi Sunak and Michael Gove failed, Angela Rayner and Matthew Pennycook will save our swifts. I applaud Hannahs book; her inner steel and her sassy take on conservation are inspiring. I am so heartened that there are courage-driven young women holding nature in the light so that it WILL be seen by the powerful.Mary Colwell, author of Curlew MoonThis book might make you scream. It is the story of a fight that started with a promise to a small bird. It is about bird spirit and the spirit of a very singular human. Hannah Bourne-Taylor has a searing eye for both truth and charlatans.Keggie Carew, author of BeastlyA wonderful book that will make you furious, hopeful and inspired by turns. Buy it, read it and then become an activist yourself.Roger Morgan-Grenville, author of Shearwaters

Entre 2019 y 2020 hubo manifestaciones masivas en Colombia contra la corrupción, la violencia sexual, y en favor de mejor acceso a la educación y la prestación universal de salud, entre otros temas. Mujeres, estudiantes, representantes sindicales y de comunidades indigenas y afrocolombianas salieron a la calle a exigir al Estado que cumpla sus compromisos y obligaciones. El telon de fondo de las protestas era la implementacion del Acuerdo de Paz firmado entre el Gobierno y las FARC en 2016.Este informe analiza si la cooperacion internacional esta respondiendo a las demandas de estas protestas. Despues de casi siete decadas de actuacion en Colombia, ¿que papel cumple la cooperacion (especialmente la oficial)? ¿Deberia adaptarse a la nueva agenda politica de la sociedad civil e incorporar temas como la desigualdad, la reforma tributaria, la evasion de capitales o el impacto del crimen organizado? Y, ¿que posicion tendria que adoptar la cooperacion frente al disenso politico?El autor entrevisto a medio centenar de especialistas del mundo academico y diplomatico, organizaciones multilaterales y de la sociedad civil de Colombia e internacionales. Sus opiniones se presentan junto con analisis de contexto, los debates mas actuales sobre la cooperacion y recomendaciones.

Nos retrotrae a momentos trascendentales en la actuacion del gobierno revolucionario y a sucesos tan relevantes como los primeros enfrentamientos en varios y diversos campos con el Gobierno de los Estados Unidos y sus agentes internos: las conjuras anticomunistas; el proceso de nacionalizacion de las riquezas del pais; la desaparicion fisica del inolvidable comandante Camilo Cienfuegos; las figuras de Osvaldo Dorticos, del comandante Ernesto Guevara y del Canciller de la Dignidad, Raul Roa, y otros sucesos que no por distantes han logrado borrarse de la memoria popular. Es, en fin, como asistir a un largo, complejo y hermoso documental historico.
