Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Khmer Rouge Purge: A Villager's Journey Through the Killing Fields of CambodiaWhen the Khmer Rouge took control of Cambodia, they promised a new society. What they delivered was terror. Families were torn apart, children indoctrinated, and millions of lives destroyed in the name of revolution.In this powerful memoir, survivor Tom Hout Chow shares the story of life as an ordinary villager caught in one of history's darkest regimes. Through famine, forced labor, and the silence of the Killing Fields, he reveals the pain of a people stripped of freedom, dignity, and even family bonds.Yet this is more than a story of loss. It is also a testimony of resilience. Chow shows how determination, faith, and the hunger to learn became lifelines that no tyrant could take away. From the villages of Cambodia to the refugee camps of Thailand, his journey is a reminder that dictators can destroy bodies, but they cannot kill the human spirit.The Khmer Rouge Purge is at once a historical witness, a personal journey, and a call to remember-so that the world never repeats the mistakes of the past.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book critically examines how polycrisis is recontextualised and (ab)used in contemporary discourse from across Europe. The book brings together established and emerging researchers in the field of discourse studies from around the world to explore the accelerating interconnected challenges of climate change, conflict, risk, Brexit, democracy, COVID-19, the rising cost of living, and migration. Recognising that polycrisis is socially produced, constructed and dismantled through discourse, the authors contemplate the discursive manifestations of crisis. Falling under the banner of critical discourse studies (CDS), the methodological approaches are heterogeneous, including, but not limited to, corpus-assisted CDS and multimodal CDS. The data are equally varied, ranging from focus groups to no-war letters, media representations to environmental protection commercials. The volume provides a comprehensive consideration of how critical approaches to discourse can help to make sense of, resist, and respond to (poly)crisis, and it will be of interest to students and scholars working in the remit of discourse studies, with a particular interest in crisis communication.
