Story
Kaum eine Gruppe innerhalb des Arbeitsmarktes hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten einen so rasanten Anstieg des Lohnes erlebt wie sie - die Konzernchefs. Wie kann das sein? Begründet wird dies damit, dass der Markt nunmal die Gehälter vorgibt. Wirtschaftsexperte Dirk Schütz weiß, dass das so nicht ganz richtig ist, und dass hinter der Fassade nichts weiter als bloße Gier steckt. Anhand von Beispielen deutscher Großkonzerne zeigt er auf, wie das Managergehalt zum Hort des Drachen werden konnte - und was man dagegen tun kann.

Story
"Min uimodståelige mand" er en vittig og personlig beretning om manglen på ligestilling i en tid, hvor #MeToo-bølgen forandrer, hvad politikere ikke har magtet, og kvindebevægelser altid har drømt om. Dokumentarist, forfatter og feminist Mette Korsgaard opsøger forskere og eksperter for at finde en forklaring på, hvorfor Danmark halter bagud på ligestillingsbarometeret, hvorfor vi ikke orker at tale om det, og hvorfor vi alle i bund og grund er mandschauvinister. Vidste du for eksempel, at mødre til små drenge med stor nøjagtighed kan vurdere, hvor stejlt deres børn kan kravle, mens mødre til piger ofte undervurderer pigernes evner?

Story
Deutschland im Jahr 2019. Billig, konsumfreundlich und auf Nur-nicht-drüber-Nachdenken getrimmt. Gewerkschaften gelten als unsexy, faire Bezahlung ist kein Thema. Dabei gibt es immer mehr Menschen, deren Einkommen nicht zum Leben reicht. Investigativ-Autorin Anette Dowideit nimmt die Löhne und Gehälter verschiedener Branchen unter die Lupe und fragt: Wer ist eigentlich noch Mittelschicht? Ehemals angesehene Berufe rutschen in Richtung Prekariat ab: Pilot, Stewardess, Lehrer, Krankenschwester.

Story
Bloß nicht so werden, wie alle anderen um sich herum. Bloß nicht so werden, wie man schon längst ist. Bloß schnell Erwachsen werden, um in die transzendentale Form des Verklärens eintauchen zu dürfen, die Jugend als "die beste Zeit des Lebens" zu feiern. Sophie Passmann teilt aus gegen alle, am verheerendsten aber gegen sich selbst und ihresgleichen. Dies ist kein Memoir, kein Roman, keine Biographie, es ist: literarischer Selbsthass. Das finden Sie anmaßend? Genau das ist es und genau das will Sophie Passmann: sich anmaßen, das zu tun, was sie tun möchte.

Story
Warum unsere Gesellschaft Arbeitslose verachtet und sie dennoch braucht. Faul. Ungebildet. Desinteressiert. Selber schuld. Als Kind von zwei Langzeitarbeitslosen weiß Anna Mayr, wie falsch solche Vorurteile sind. Früher schämte sie sich, dass ihre Eltern keine Jobs haben. Heute weiß sie, dass unsere Gesellschaft Menschen wie sie braucht: als drohendes Bild des Elends. In ihrem kämpferischen, thesenstarken Buch zeigt Mayr, warum wir die Geschichte der Arbeit neu denken müssen und wie eine Welt aussehen könnte, in der wir die Elenden nicht mehr brauchen, um unseren Leben Sinn zu geben.

Story
Als sein Vater stirbt, reist Didier Eribon zum ersten Mal nach Jahrzehnten in seine Heimatstadt. Gemeinsam mit seiner Mutter sieht er sich Fotos an - das ist die Ausgangskonstellation dieses Werks, das autobiografisches Schreiben mit soziologischer Reflexion verknüpft. Eribon realisiert, wie sehr er unter der Homophobie seines Herkunftsmilieus litt und dass es der Habitus einer armen Arbeiterfamilie war, der es ihm schwer machte, in der Pariser Gesellschaft Fuß zu fassen.

Wir steuern auf eine Großkrise zu: Die Freiheitsrechte und die Marktwirtschaft erodieren, das monetäre System kollabiert, die Eliten versagen. Durch maßlose Umverteilung gleiten wir in einen planwirtschaftlichen Staatsmonopolkapitalismus ab. Markus Krall hat bereits in seinen früheren Bestsellern diese Gefahren eindrucksvoll beschworen. In seinem neuen Buch ruft er nun unsere Leistungselite dazu auf, aufzuwachen und die Krise als Chance für eine bürgerliche Revolution zu nutzen.

Als Jeremias Thiel elf Jahre alt ist, macht er sich auf den Weg zum Jugendamt. Er hält es zu Hause nicht mehr aus, hat Angst, der Armut und Verwahrlosung, die dort herrschen, niemals entkommen zu können. Seine Eltern sind psychisch krank und leben von Hartz IV, die häusliche Situation ist mehr als schwierig. Von da an lebt er im SOS-Jugendhaus, bis er als Stipendiat auf ein internationales College geht und im Herbst 2019 sein Studium in den USA beginnt. Er ist sich sicher, dass viele, die in ähnlichen Verhältnissen leben, nicht die Möglichkeit haben, sich daraus zu befreien.

C'è una linea immaginaria eppure realissima, una ferita non chiusa, un luogo di tutti e di nessuno di cui ognuno, invisibilmente, è parte: è la frontiera che separa e insieme unisce il Nord del mondo, democratico, liberale e civilizzato, e il Sud, povero, morso dalla guerra, arretrato e antidemocratico. È sul margine di questa frontiera che si gioca il grande gioco del mondo contemporaneo.

Story
In Italia - che pure non è tra i Paesi con più elevata disuguaglianza - i dieci individui più ricchi posseggono più risorse economiche dei circa tre milioni di individui più poveri. Molte sono le questioni di natura economica e politica che tale divario solleva. Quanta parte della ricchezza di un individuo deriva dal suo impegno e quanta invece è frutto del caso? Quanto contano eredità e origini sociali? È giusto che lo Stato si preoccupi di redistribuire la ricchezza o non dovrebbe piuttosto assicurare a ciascuno le stesse opportunità?

Story
One in eight Americans struggles with hunger, and more than 13 million children live in food-insecure homes. As Christians we are called to address the suffering of the hungry and poor: "For I was hungry, and you gave me food..." (Matthew 25:35). However, the problems of hunger and poverty are too large and too complex for any one of us to resolve individually. I Was Hungry offers not only an assessment of the current crisis but also a strategy for addressing it. Jeremy Everett, a noted advocate for the hungry and poor, calls Christians to work across ideological divides....

Story
It wasn’t surprising when the first abandoned bicycles were found along the dirt roads and farmland just across the border from Tijuana, but before long they were arriving in droves. The bikes went from curiosity, to nuisance, to phenomenon. But until they caught the eye of journalist Kimball Taylor, only a small cadre of human smugglers - coyotes - and migrants could say how or why they’d gotten there. This is the story of 7,000 bikes that made an incredible journey and one young man from Oaxaca who arrived at the border with nothing, built a small empire, and then vanished.

For the majority of young adults today, the transition to independence is a time of excitement and possibility. But nearly five million young people experience entry into adulthood as abrupt abandonment, a time of disconnection from school, work, and family. For this growing population of Americans, which includes kids aging out of foster care and those entangled with the justice system, life screeches to a halt when adulthood arrives. Abandoned is the first-ever exploration of this tale of dead ends and broken dreams.

Story
Nearly 40 million people in the United States live below the poverty line - about $26,200 for a family of four. Low-income families and individuals are everywhere, from cities to rural communities. While poverty is commonly seen as a personal failure, or a deficiency of character or knowledge, it's actually the result of bad policy. Public policy has purposefully erected barriers that deny access to basic needs, creating a society where people can easily become trapped - not because we lack the resources to lift them out, but because we are actively choosing not to.

In Privilege Lost, Jessi Streib traces the lives of over 100 youth born into the upper-middle-class. Following them for over 10 years as they transition from teens to young adults, Streib examines who falls from the upper-middle-class, how, and why don't they see it coming. In doing so, she reveals the patterned ways that individuals' resources and identities push them onto mobility paths - and the complicated choices youth make between staying true to themselves and staying in their class position.

We are invited into homes and offices, where we recognize the crushing pressure of unraveling plans, and the healing warmth of being together. Moreover, we witness the constant planning that goes into a "good" day, often with the aid of phones and apps.

Amid increasing hardship and limited employment options, poor urban youth are developing creative online strategies to make ends meet. Using such social media platforms as YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram, they're capitalizing on the public's fascination with the ghetto and gang violence. But with what consequences? Ballad of the Bullet follows the Corner Boys, a group of 30 or so young men on Chicago's South Side who have hitched their dreams of success to the creation of "drill music" (slang for "shooting music").
