An Francesco Dionigi von Borgo san Sepolcro in Paris. Die Besteigung des Mont Ventoux. Mit farbigen Fotografien von Constantin Beyer
by Francesco Petrarca, Constantin Beyer, Paul Stern, Hans Nachod, Horst Nalewski
Francesco Petrarca (1304-1374) soll als einer der ersten den höchsten und eindrucksvollsten Berg der Provence, den von Winden umwehten Mont Ventoux, bestiegen haben. Der Brief, in dem er seinen Aufstieg schildert, ist ob des neuen Naturgefühls, das sich in ihm ausspricht, berühmt geworden.Rainer Maria Rilke war Petrarcas Brief bei einem Aufenthalt in der Provence zum Ereignis geworden durch die in ihm formulierte, auf Augustinus zurückgehende Erkenntnis, dass ein noch so reiches »Außen« übertroffen werde von der Tiefendimension unseres Inneren. Petrarcas Aufstieg nachvollzogen hat ein Urenkel Rilkes, der Fotograf Constantin Beyer.

Overtourism
Excesses, Discontents and Measures in Travel and Tourism
by Claudio Milano, Joseph M Cheer, Marina Novelli
The 'overtourism' phenomenon is defined as the excessive growth of visitors leading to overcrowding and the consequencial suffering of residents, due to temporary and often seasonal tourism peaks, that lead to permanent changes in lifestyles, amenities and well-being. Enormous tensions in overtourism affected destinations have driven the intensification of policy making and scholarly attention toward seeking antidotes to an issue that is considered paradoxical and problematic. Moving beyond the 'top 10 things you can do about overtourism', this book examines the evolution of the phenomenon and explores the genesis of overtourism as well as the system dynamics underpinning it. With a rigorous scientific approach the book uses systems-thinking and contemporary paradigms around sustainable development, resilience planning and degrowth; while considering global economic, socio-political, environmental

The Moscow Factor: US Policy toward Sovereign Ukraine and the Kremlin
by Eugene M. Fishel
24 February 2022 was not the beginning of Russia's war on Ukraine. Back in 2014, Russia illegally annexed Crimea from Ukraine, bolstered a separatist conflict in the Donbas region, and attacked Ukraine with units of its regular army and special forces. In each instance of Russian aggression, the U.S. response has often been criticized as inadequate, insufficient, or hesitant. The Moscow Factor: U.S. Policy toward Sovereign Ukraine and the Kremlin is a unique study that examines four key Ukraine-related policy decisions across two Republican and two Democratic U.S. administrations. Author Eugene M. Fishel asks whether, how, and under what circumstances Washington has considered Ukraine’s status as a sovereign nation in its decision-making regarding relations with Moscow. This study situates the stance of the United States toward Ukraine in the broader context of international relations. It fills an important lacuna in existing scholarship and policy discourse by focusing on the complex trilateral—rather than simply bilateral—dynamics among the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia, in 1991–2016. This book brings together for the first time documentary evidence and declassified materials dealing with policy deliberation, retrospective articles authored by former policymakers, and formal memoirs by erstwhile senior officials. The study is also supplemented by open-ended interviews with former and returning officials.

8 BILLION REASONS POPULATION MATTERS
The Defining Issue of the 21st Century
by Valorie M. Allen
The world is about to hit a population level of EIGHT BILLION people on one small planet. Through Allen’s analysis of the situation, the realization sets in that the fights by environmental and world aid groups are all for naught as every gain is soon overwhelmed by the pressures of more growth. Our planet's greatest threat is of too many people depleting the Earth's resources and contributing to climate change. Allen offers a thorough analysis of our environmental, social, political, and economic crises; then offers a treasure trove of solutions and success stories that we can all take to heart.
