In this masterly work of synthesis, Peter Mansfield, drawing on his experience as a journalist and a historian, explores two centuries of history in the Middle East. He forms a picture of the historical, political, and social history of the meeting point of Occident and Orient, from Bonaparte's marauding invasion of Egypt to the start of the Gulf War. For more than four thousand years, the Middle East has provided a setting for titanic struggles between great civilizations and religions. In this century it became the focus of rivalry between the European powers as the last major Islamic empire of the Ottoman Turks crumbled and collapsed. The discovery of the world's greatest oil reserves gave the region global economic importance as well as a unique strategic value. The foundation of a national state by immigrant Zionist Jews created one of the most insoluble political problems of our era, which is compounded by the reassertion of Islamic consciousness among the great majority of the region's inhabitants. In two penetrating final chapters, Peter Mansfield discusses Saddam Hussein and the prospects for the future.

Ce court opuscule de Stéphane Hessel, ancien résistant, diplomate et militant politique, est devenu en 2009 un phénomène d'édition avant d'inspirer un mouvement social d'une ampleur planétaire ! "Indignez-vous !" défend l'idée selon laquelle l'indignation est le ferment de l'esprit de résistance et constate que les raisons de s'indigner dans le monde d'aujourd'hui ne manquent pas : l'écart grandissant entre les très riches et les très pauvres, l'état de la planète, le traitement fait aux sans-papiers, aux immigrés, aux Roms, la course au "toujours plus", à la compétition, la dictature des marchés financiers, jusqu'aux acquis bradés de la Résistance - retraites et Sécurité sociale.

Palestine is a microcosm of the world: on fire, stubborn, fragmented, dignified. While a settler colonial state continues to inflict devastating violence, fundamental truths are deliberately obscured—the perpetrators are coddled while the victims are blamed and placed on trial. How we see Palestine reveals how we see each other; how we see everything else. Masterfully combining candid testimony, history, and reportage, Perfect Victims presents a powerfully simple demand: dignity for the Palestinian.
