The Aspen Elite - Sean Elias - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Aspen Elite - Sean Elias - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The mountain resort town of Aspen, Colorado, is an ultra-exclusive power elite ‘enclave’ and ‘hub’ where both the US and global power elite own property, vacation, and meet together. Over fifty billionaires have homes or real estate investments in Aspen; more than 90% of the world’s billionaires at some point have docked their private aircraft at "Sardy Field," the town’s airport. Aspen is defined by exclusivity, where the average home price hovers in the multiple millions. Based on years of in-depth ethnographic field research, this rare look into the lives of the super-wealthy sheds new light on how the 1% lives, thinks, and wields extraordinary power in America and internationally. The book’s vivid prose makes the book an ideal reading for courses in social class, inequality, and social stratification, and power in American society. In Aspen, Veblen’s notion of conspicuous consumption has morphed into colossal consumption, Marx’s observations of "mammon" or "avarice" of the capitalist ownership class has transformed into hyper-gluttony and warp-greed that Marx would have difficulty comprehending. Moreover, Aspen is site of the intersections of politics, money, and war, where one witnesses the elites’ control over states, economies, and militaries that Mills and Domhoff identify.

Aspen and the American Dream - Jenny Stuber - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

Aspen and the American Dream - Jenny Stuber - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

How is it possible for a town to exist where the median household income is about $73,000, but the median home price is about $4,000,000? Boring into the "impossible" math of Aspen, Colorado, Stuber explores how middle-class people have found a way to live in this supergentrified town. Interviewing a range of residents, policymakers, and officials, Stuber shows that what resolves the math equation between incomes and home values in Aspen, Colorado—the X-factor that makes middle-class life possible—is the careful orchestration of diverse class interests within local politics and the community. She explores how this is achieved through a highly regulatory and extractive land use code that provides symbolic and material value to highly affluent investors and part-year residents, as well as less-affluent locals, many of whom benefit from an array of subsidies—including an extensive affordable housing program—that redistribute economic resources in ways that make it possible for middle-class residents to live there. Stuber further examines how Latinos, who provide much of the service work in Aspen and who tend to live outside the town, fit into the social geography of one of the most unequal places in the country. Overall, Stuber argues that the Aspen's ability to balance the interests of its diverse class constituencies is not a foregone conclusion; rather, it is the result of efforts by local stakeholders—citizens, government, developers, and vacationers—to preserve the town’s unique feel and value, and "keep Aspen, Aspen" in all its complex dynamics.

Mother Aspen - Annette Lebox - Bog - Groundwood Books Ltd ,Canada - Plusbog.dk

Mother Aspen - Annette Lebox - Bog - Groundwood Books Ltd ,Canada - Plusbog.dk

A lyrical story of an aspen grove through the seasons, inspired by the ground-breaking work of Dr. Suzanne Simard on how trees and fungi talk to each other. In early spring, the Mother Tree wakens. She is hundreds of years old, and her children are the sprouts that she sends up from her roots. They look like many separate trees, but they are all part of the Mother Tree. Above ground, the aspens use the sun to produce sugar. Below ground, fungi wrap threads around the aspen’s roots, feeding on the sugar that they cannot make themselves. And in exchange, the fungi carry messages from tree to tree — warnings of drought, disease and infestations. Through the seasons and years, the Mother Tree shelters and feeds the other trees, the animals that make their home in the grove and the fungi that make it possible for the trees to talk to each other. But when a violent storm upends the order of things, can the forest survive without its Mother Tree? This story of symbiosis, richly illustrated by Crystal Smith, shows how the forest inhabitants thrive by working together. An author’s note explains the significance of mycorrhizal networks and why it is crucial to protect aspen forests.

Jakkesæt og tændrør - Aspen Hadley - Bog - Forlaget mellemgaard - Plusbog.dk

Liv Phelps har en mission: tage sin eksamen, forblive uafhængig, redde sin familie og begynde et nyt liv langt fra den lille by, hvor hun er vokset op. Kærlighed optræder ikke på listen. Imidlertid har universet anden indstilling til, hvad Liv har brug for, og da den flotte Blaine Harris træder ind på den restaurant, hvor hun arbejder, beslutter hun sig for at give ham en chance. Blaines liv er fuldstændig anderledes end hendes, og han præsenterer hende for ting, hun længe har drømt om. Men da han presser hende til at få sin gamle bil tjekket hos den lokale mekaniker, sker noget uventet. Connor Hunt, der bor i samme lille by, har ikke stået øverst på Livs liste over favoritmennesker, siden hun var vidne til hans til, hvordan det lykkedes ham at få skabt et forfærdeligt omdømme. Han er en tryllekunstner med biler, og han kan ikke tåle synet af en maskine, der lider. Han har en plan til, hvordan han kan redde Livs bil, selvom hun ikke kan betale. Aldrig nogensinde havde Liv forestillet sig, hvordan et simpelt ’ja’ kunne sende hende på den rutsjebanetur, hun altid havde prøvet at undgå. Uddrag af bogen ”Hej,” svarede jeg. ”Hallo,” svarede Blaines stemme. ”Jeg håber ikke, jeg forstyrrer?” Jeg kunne ikke fortælle ham, at han faktisk forstyrrede, for Blaine vidste faktisk slet ikke, at jeg malede. Ingen ude for min familie og Kelly vidste det. Det var noget, jeg holdt for mig selv. Jeg tvang et smil frem i min stemme og fortalte ham, at han ikke forstyrrede, selvom mine øjne kiggede længselsfuld tilbage på lærredet. 30 minutter mere havde været fantastisk. ”Fantastisk,” svarede han. ”Jeg ville bare høre, hvordan din bil havde det?” ”Min bil?” ”Ja. Jeg har været bekymret for den, lige siden vi var ude den anden aften. Den lød virkelig medtaget. Jeg tror altså ikke, at det er sikkert for dig at køre rundt i den i den tilstand.” Det var uventet. Var vi det sted i vores forhold, hvor han kunne komme med den slags forslag? Hvem ved, men selvom det var sødt af ham, så havde jeg egentlig ikke lyst til at snakke med Blaine om min skrotbunke af en bil med ham. ”Det er virkelig sødt af dig,” svarede jeg så betænksomt, som jeg kunne, ”men det er altså ikke noget, du behøver bekymre dig om. Jeg har kørt i den samme bil i årevis nu, og den har aldrig svigtet.” Om forfatteren Aspen Hadley er amerikansk forfatter. Hun har fortalt historier, siden hun skrev sin første roman ved køkkenbordet i 8. klasse. Aspen skriver den type bøger, hun selv elsker at læse: underholdende og sjove kærlighedshistorier, der efterlader en med en god følelse i kroppen.

Pro-Voice: How to Keep Listening When the World Wants a Fight - Aspen Baker - Bog - Berrett-Koehler - Plusbog.dk

Pro-Voice: How to Keep Listening When the World Wants a Fight - Aspen Baker - Bog - Berrett-Koehler - Plusbog.dk

When Aspen Baker had an abortion at the age of 24 she felt caught between the warring pro-life and pro-choice factions, with no safe space to share her conflicted feelings. In this hopeful and moving book, Baker describes how she and Exhale, the organization she cofounded, developed their “pro-voice” philosophy and a set of tools that enable anyone to have respectful, compassionate exchanges about even the most contentious topics. Initially distrusted by both sides, Exhale now receives post abortion referrals from pro-life and pro-choice organizations. Baker examines the history of the abortion debate, identifying the mistakes and misunderstandings that have led us to the current painful divide. She shares how Exhale discovered creative ways to help women and men share their feelings about abortion, such as starting a post abortion telephone service and piloting a nationwide story-sharing tour led by women who’d had abortions. Thanks to Aspen Baker’s innovative ideas and the trendsetting work of Exhale, the culture around abortion is changing. Pro-voice can be adopted by anyone interested in dialogue rather than dogma. Peace, in this perspective, isn’t a world without fighting or conflict but one where conflict can be engaged in - fiercely and directly - without dehumanizing ourselves or our opponents. Our world is full of gray areas. It’s vital we learn practices like pro-voice to help us move from paralysis to progress.

Confronting Totalitarian Minds - Aspen Brinton - Bog - Karolinum,Nakladatelstvi Univerzity Karlovy,Czech Republic - Plusbog.dk

Jan Patocka was a Czech philosopher who not only lived through the turbulent politics of twentieth-century Central Europe, but he shaped his intellectual contributions in response to that tumult. One of the last students of Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, he was a philosophical inspiration to Václav Havel and other dissidents who confronted the Soviet regimes before 1989, as well as being actively involved in authoring and enacting Charter 77 in Czechoslovakia. He died in 1977 from medical complications resulting from interrogations of the secret police, his political involvement cut short by an untimely death. Confronting Totalitarian Minds examines his legacy along with several contemporary applications of his ideas about dissidence, solidarity, and the human being’s existential confrontation with unjust politics. Aspen Briton puts Patocka’s ideas about dissidence, citizen mobilization, and civic responsibility in conversation with those of notable world historical figures like Mohandas Gandhi, expanding the current possibilities of comparative political theory. In adding a fresh voice to contemporary conversations on transcending injustice, Confronting Totalitarian Minds seeks to educate a wider audience about this philosopher’s continued relevance to political dissidents across the world.
