"L'histoire vraie du plus incroyable réseau d'espions du XXe siècle ! Alors que la crise de 1929 a plongé les classes populaires anglaises dans une misère noire et que le fascisme émerge partout en Europe, dans les amphithéâtres de Cambridge, la majorité des étudiants reste indifférente, assurée d'appartenir à une caste immuable d'élus. Mais les certitudes se lézardent pour certains, et au doute succèdent le dégoßt puis la conviction que le Vieux Continent se compromet. Seule l'Union soviétique semble avoir quitté la rive à temps... De cette prise de conscience naît le plus incroyable réseau d'espions du XXe siècle, qui, dans l'ombre, infléchira radicalement, pendant plus de 30 ans, le cours de l'Histoire : Les Cinq de Cambridge !".

Kim Buck uses well-known jewellery motifs such as hearts, signet rings and crosses as a point of departure, but the materials can be anything from precious metals to found objects and ready-mades. With surprising combinations, wordplay and a touch of irony, he questions the conventions of the jewellery business as well as the way national and religious symbols are used and abused. The issues raised by his jewellery and objects reach far beyond the jewellery field itself, disrupting our cultural habits and understanding of the self.

'Women in the Sky' examines Korean women factory workers' century-long activism, from the 1920s to the present, with a focus on gender politics both in the labor movement and in the larger society. It highlights several key moments in colonial and postcolonial Korean history when factory women commanded the attention of the wider public, including the early-1930s rubber shoe workers' general strike in Pyongyang, the early-1950s textile workers' struggle in South Korea, the 1970s democratic union movement led by female factory workers, and women workers' activism against neoliberal restructuring in recent decades. Hwasook Nam asks why women workers in South Korea have been relegated to the periphery in activist and mainstream narratives despite a century of persistent militant struggle and indisputable contributions to the labor movement and successful democracy movement.

Whitewashing the Movies addresses the popular practice of excluding Asian actors from playing Asian characters in film. Media activists and critics have denounced contemporary decisions to cast White actors to play Asians and Asian Americans in movies such as Ghost in the Shell and Aloha. The purpose of this book is to apply the concept of “whitewashing” in stories that privilege White identities at the expense of Asian/American stories and characters. To understand whitewashing across various contexts, the book analyzes films produced in Hollywood, Asian American independent production, and US-China co-productions. Through the analysis, the book examines the ways in which whitewashing matters in the project of Whiteness and White racial hegemony. The book contributes to contemporary understanding of mediated representations of race by theorizing whitewashing, contributing to studies of Whiteness in media studies, and producing a counter-imagination of Asian/American representation in Asian-centered stories.
