    Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie 9
    Shikimori seems like the perfect girlfriend: cute, fun to be around, sweet when she wants to be... but she has a cool dark side that comes out under the right circumstances. And her boyfriend Izumi loves to be around when that happens! A fun and funny high school romance with a sassy twist perfect for fans of Nagatoro-san and Komi Can't Communicate! Izumi is hyper pumped-up about the upcoming school trip to Kyoto, and has even volunteered to be the leader of his group. His first task is to find another member to add to the gang in order to make a group of six. And Izumi's mystery selection turns out to be Saruogi-kun, a boy who seems suspiciously similar to Izumi, albeit far more timid. With possibly two disaster-prone boys in the group, can Shikimori be a strong enough guardian angel to ensure that the trip to Kyoto is a memorable one (for good reasons)?

    Limited Statehood in Post-Revolutionary Tunisia
    This book explores the complexity of the only widely-acclaimed successful democratic transition following the Arab uprisings of 2010-2011 - the Tunisian one. The country's transformation, in terms of state-society relations across several analytical dimensions (citizenship, security, political economy, external relations), is looked at through the prism of statehood and of limited statehood in particular. The author illustrates how the balance of power and the relationship between the state and societal forces have been shaped and reshaped a number of times at key critical junctures by drawing on examples from very different policy arenas. The critical reading of statehood speaks beyond the Tunisian case study as notions of limited statehood can be applied, with different degrees of intensity and in some dimensions more than others, to most political systems in the Middle East and North Africa. Accessible for students, academics and professionals alike, the book illuminates the complexities and challenges of a successful, albeit still fragile, transition.

    Representation and Truth
    The first volume of this new yearbook focuses on Eric Voegelin's 1952 paper "New Science of Politics", its significance and enduring relevance. Eric Voegelin's "New Science of Politics" is today considered a classic of recent political philosophy, albeit a controversial one. As soon as it was published, the book caused a sensation, especially because of its relatively sharp criticism of the normative foundations of Western modernity. In doing so, Voegelin places the question of the ambiguity of the concept of representation and its claim to truth at the center of his reflections. The contributions to this volume aim to shed light on how fruitful and topical this perspective still is today from various perspectives. The contributions come from authors of different disciplines, including political science, philosophy, and sociology. In addition to a classification of the "New Science of Politics" in Voegelin's oeuvre as a whole, the volume primarily inquires into the systematicallyinteresting points of contact, which are also of interest beyond Voegelin's reception.

    Stever Fever, Hörbuch, Digital, 37min
    With Gillespie, life is approached in a full sprint, like a kid on vacation tearing down the beach to jump into the sea. He has come up with a fun game to play while in the car (albeit not one that is suitable for women. Or children) and he proves how much of a glass-half-full guy he is when he reveals the upside to being fined $10,000 for hitting a construction worker with your vehicle.
