Everywhere we look, people are using fashion to communicate self and society--who they are, and where they belong. Transglobal Fashion Narratives presents an international, interdisciplinary analysis of those narratives. Moving from sweatshop to runway, page to screen, camera to blog, and artist to audience, the book examines fashion as a mediated form of content in branding, as a literary and filmic device, and as a personal form of expression by industry professionals, journalists, and bloggers.

The whole concept of gender identity is being increasingly challenged and words such as non-binary, pansexual, transgender, cisgender and gender dysphoria are becoming commonplace. This book explores the cultures and people of the past who have embraced, challenged or quietly subverted society's expectations about gender. It features the current stories of openly transgender people around the world in positions of power and authority who are helping to increase recognition and acceptance of the trans community. And, as trans people often start their journeys in their teens, the book explores the experiences of some young people just at the start of their journeys. The book has a foreword by two patrons of the charity Mermaids. Jake says, ' what is becoming evident is that trans people have been around for centuries, in many guises ... transgender is certainly not trendy fad that the press would have us believe'. This book for children aged 12+ supports the study of the fascinating long history of transgender around the world.

Genre: Music
ISBN: 1501311980

Through a transnational, comparative and multi-level approach to the relationship between youth, migration, and music, the aesthetic intersections between the local and the global, and between agency and identity, are presented through case studies in this book. Transglobal Sounds contemplates migrant youth and the impact of music in diaspora settings and on the lives of individuals and collectives, engaging with broader questions of how new modes of identification are born out of the social, cultural, historical and political interfaces between youth, migration and music. Thus, through acts of mobility and environments lived in and in-between, this volume seeks to articulate between musical transnationalism and sense of place in exploring the complex relationship between music and young migrants and migrant descendant's everyday lives.

A telephone call originating in Idaho triggers alarms as far away as New York and Paris. When the Secretary of the Interior’s helicopter is shot out of the sky, his plans to develop an exclusive residential community on lands owned by his wife’s family are put on hold. The President’s National Security Advisor suspects the Secretary’s murder may signal the beginning of a series of terrorist attacks on US soft targets, possibly sponsored by the Saudi Royal family to stop the Secretary’s push to tap additional US oil and gas reserves. CIA operative Alec Caldwell, a master at mountain man skills, is tasked with finding the crash site in the remote Idaho Mountains. Conflicting evidence leads Caldwell to suspect there is more to the Secretary’s death than meets the eye. When deadly radioactive waste is found buried in the Secretary’s development, Alec tracks the culprit to Europe, but a contract assassin silences his target before he can take him into custody. Caldwell ultimately identifies the assassin, but does not turn her over to the FBI. He, and the CIA have other plans for her considerable talents. Caught up in a web of mistakes in handling the case, a disgruntled FBI agent blames Alec for his problems and targets him for assassination. Can Beth get Alec the medical attention he needs to save his life or do the Alec Caldwell sagas end here?
