Inter/Nationalism: Decolonizing Native America and Palestine / Steven Salaita
In Inter/Nationalism, Salaita argues that the seemingly disparate fields of Palestinian studies and American Indian studies have more in common than one may think and that American Indian and Indigenous studies must be more central to the scholarship and activism focusing on Palestine.
The Last Refuge: A True Story of War, Survival and Life Under Siege in Srebrenica / Hasan Nuhanovic
The Last Refuge is a powerful first-hand account of the barbarism of those years leading up to the massacre in Srebrenica; it is also a compelling, action-packed and pertinent story of the life of a refugee and survival and heroism on the frontlines of a bitter conflict.
The Struggles for Human Rights in Xinjiang / Roy Anthony Rogers
This book analyses the human rights conditions in Xinjiang, and also the internal and external factors that have influenced China’s policies on the human rights conditions in this region between 1978 and 2007. The human rights condition in Xinjiang have never been consistent and this book looks into these changes and the factors that have caused these changes.
