This book analyses the changing nature of the British economy and the consequences of Brexit upon its place within the European economic space. The overhang from the global financial crisis, the Eurozone crisis, the political negotiation of prolonged economic downturn and now the spectre of ‘Brexit’ provide the backdrop for various forms of capitalist restructuring designed to restore competitiveness and prosperity. This re-structuring has clear implications for existing European growth models, the structural imbalances and inequalities which characterise the British economy, the fortunes of the City of London and competing financial districts internationally, and the prospective strategies of progressive politics in this context. Adopting a broadly critical political economy lens – which gives analytical weight to the relationship between economic and political dynamics – the book will draw on the research of eminent scholars to assess divergence in the foundations of economic competitiveness and their social repercussions.

Diverging Capitalisms

Poetry. The second edition of Daniel Bailey's intoxicated battle cry of a sonnet sequence. From forgiveness in a beehive to tiny banquets for retired janitors, Bailey's poems have been wept and clutched and dropped all over, but they will still be there in the morning when your heart catches a shake.

The Drunk Sonnets

A troubling high-profile case leads Atlanta homicide chief of detectives Jed Bradley into a forced retirement, prompting his return to his childhood home amid the moss-draped live oaks and tidewater canals of South Carolina's pristine lowcountry, in this tightly crafted, suspenseful mystery. Soon Bradley is reluctantly lured into investigating local murders involving hoodoo ritualism, similarities to his brother's murder thirty years ago, and a possible connection with a childhood sweetheart. The hot swampy lowcountry provides a diverse, unique setting for a story contrasting violence with humor and taut with complex, realistic racial tension between characters who have known one another and worked together for years.
