Der kleine Alfie möchte zu gerne zur Verkleidungsparty in der Schule gehen, sein Kostüm – ein Seestern – liegt schon bereit. Doch kurz davor verlässt ihn der Mut – er ist einfach zu schüchtern. Seine Mutter geht stattdessen mit ihm ins Aquarium, wo Alfie staunend vor der großen Glasscheibe steht und einen Clownfisch beobachtet, der sich kurz zeigt und dann gleich wieder zwischen den Korallen versteckt. »Manchmal müssen Clownfische sich einfach verstecken. So sind sie einfach«, sagt Alfies Mutter. »Menschen auch«, sagt Alfie. Doch bei der nächsten Verkleidungsparty traut er sich – im Kostüm eines Clownfischs. In wunderbar warmem Ton und poetischen Bildern erzählen Davina Bell und Allison Colpoys davon, dass man sich manchmal die Bettdecke über den Kopf ziehen muss und es einfach ein bisschen dauert, bis man bereit ist für die Welt da draußen.
This story is a recreation of a fable originally written in “Kalila and Demna”, an ancient book with Indian roots. In the original story, an old egret tricks the fish into thinking that they are being taken to a safe lake, but they are in fact becoming the egret’s food. Until one day, the crab also asks the egret to take him to the lake and sees the remaining fish bones while riding on his back. He then returns and informs the others. “Believe Me, I’m not an Egret!” is a parody of the original fable, encouraging the children to think about and question what they hear.

Cultural warfare and trust: fighting the Mafia in Palermo concentrates on a central issue in research on democratic processes: the development of generalised trust. The existence of generalised trust and confidence in a society is decisive for economic development and an effective democracy. Is it possible to fight persistent values of distrust and non-cooperation? Is it possible to support the development of generalised trust through public action and education? The book addresses these questions by examining political efforts to combat Palermo's Mafia-controlled heritage and to turn a tradition of non-cooperation and distrust into cooperation and trust. In particular, it focuses on the school program launched in Palermo during the mid-1990s, which was designed to break the Mafia's territorial and mental control. Combining theories on social capital and civic education, the author presents and analyses new quantitative and qualitative research carried out in seven public schools in Palermo. This book will be valuable to students, academics and researchers interested in social capital and trust, Italian politics, civic education, organised crime, local government and democratic practice. ;

The fall and rise of the English upper class explores the role traditionalist worldviews, articulated by members of the historic upper-class, have played in British society in the shadow of her imperial and economic decline in the twentieth century. Situating these traditionalist visions alongside Britain's post-Brexit fantasies of global economic resurgence and a socio-cultural return to a green and pleasant land, Smith examines Britain's Establishment institutions, the estates of her landed gentry and aristocracy, through to an appetite for nostalgic products represented with pastoral or pre-modern symbolism. It is demonstrated that these institutions and pursuits play a central role in situating social, cultural and political belonging. Crucially these institutions and pursuits rely upon a form of membership which is grounded in a kinship idiom centred upon inheritance and descent: who inherits the houses of privilege, inherits England.
