The First Political Order
The Ages of Globalization
How Sex Shapes Governance and National Security Worldwide
Geography, Technology, and Institutions Jeffrey D. Sachs
Valerie M. Hudson, Donna Lee Bowen, and Perpetua Lynne Nielsen
The First Political Order is a groundbreaking demonstration that the persistent and systematic subordination of women underlies all other institutions, with wide-ranging implications for global security and development. It offers a new paradigm for understanding insecurity, instability, autocracy, and violence.
Jeffrey D. Sachs turns to world history to shed light on how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of the twenty-first century. He takes readers through a series of seven distinct waves of technological and institutional change, starting with early modern humans and ending with reflections on today’s globalization.

Warrior Life
Housing and Human Settlements in a World of Change
Pamela Palmater
Edited by Astrid Ley, Ashiq Ur Rahman, and Josefine Fokdal.
Indigenous Resistance and Resurgence
Forewords by Rachel Rolnik and Mohammed El Soufi.
Pamela Palmater addresses a range of Indigenous issues and makes their complex political and legal implications accessible. Warrior Life is an unflinching critique of the colonial project that is Canada and a rallying cry for Indigenous peoples and allies alike to forge a path toward a decolonial future through resistance and resurgence.
This book addresses the challenges of housing and emerging solutions along the lines of three major dynamics: migration, climate change, and neoliberalism. It explores the outcomes of neoliberal “enabling” ideas, responses to extreme climate events with different housing approaches, and how the dynamics of migration reshape urban housing provision.
