POTUS ENDING OF GREENING MARKET, BEGINNING OF ADAPTATING MARKET:    1/8: Nature and Human History: The Earth Transformed: An Untold History Hardcover  by  Peter Frankopan  (Author) 1873 VULURE BISON https://www.amazon.com/Earth-Transformed-Untold-History/dp/0525659161/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Global warming is one of the greatest dangers mankind faces today. Even as temperatures increase, sea levels rise, and natural disasters escalate, our current environmental crisis feels difficult to predict and understand. But climate change and its effects on us are not new. In a bold narrative that spans centuries and continents, Peter Frankopan argues that nature has always played a fundamental role in the writing of history. From the fall of the Moche civilization in South America that came about because of the cyclical pressures of El Niño to volcanic eruptions in Iceland that affected Egypt and helped bring the Ottoman empire to its knees, climate change and its influences have always been with us. Frankopan explains how the Vikings emerged thanks to catastrophic crop failure, why the roots of regime change in eleventh-century Baghdad lay in the collapse of cotton prices resulting from unusual climate patterns, and why the western expansion of the frontiers in North America was directly affected by solar flare activity in the eighteenth century. Again and again, Frankopan shows that when past empires have failed to act sustainably, they have been met with catastrophe. Blending brilliant historical writing and cutting-edge scientific research, The Earth Transformedwill radically reframe the way we look at the world and our future.

Elif Shafak's award-winning novels are celebrated globally. Her work has been translated into 58 languages, and her latest, There Are Rivers in the Sky, is a testament to the power of storytelling across borders and cultures. This is an epic story of interconnection. Spanning ancient Mesopotamia to contemporary London, Shafak charts the lifespan of a raindrop, as it is consumed, subsumed and transformed across continents and centuries. This sweeping narrative is anchored by the lives of three characters, all of whom live on the banks of the Thames or the Tigris. Their lives are all touched by the Epic of Gilgamesh, a poem written during the late second millennium BC. In April 2025 Shafak was be joined by historian Peter Frankopan on the Intelligence Squared stage. In his acclaimed The Earth Transformed, Frankopan explores how the natural environment has shaped the development and demise of civilisations across time. Here he joined Shafak to shed light on the history of ancient Mesopotamia and the weaving of epic narratives across time and place. ------ If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

We're living in a time of upheaval. The war in the Middle East is intensifying. Russia is making gains in Ukraine. America faces an election of unparalleled importance. Climate change and AI appear on the brink of changing our world forever. How are we to make sense of the world today? Study its past, argues acclaimed historian Peter Frankopan, who returned to the Intelligence Squared stage in November 2024.  Now that his remarkably turbulent year is almost over, attention is turning to 2025 and what lies in the months ahead for us all. Drawing on his best-selling books, The Silk Roads and The Earth Transformed, Frankopan put our current challenges and opportunities into historical perspective and sought to map out what we can expect from the world in 2025. Frankopan was in conversation with Emily Maitlis, the award-winning journalist and presenter of The News Agents podcast.

Peter Frankopan, the author of Silk Roads and Earth Transformed, shares his insights with Dan Saladino on food, history and questions for our future. Produced and presented by Dan Saladino.

In a world increasingly defined by global environmental challenges and changes, the perspective of historian Peter Frankopan, author of the best-selling «The Silk Roads», is crucial to helping us understand a planet in constant change. In this interview, Frankopan discusses the consequences of climate change over time and highlights the importance of human resilience - a constant in human history - which is essential for human adaptation to current challenges. He also emphasizes the imminence of historical disasters and the international cooperation that is fundamental to effective crisis management. His vision offers an in-depth analysis of humanity's challenges and the strategies needed to face the new global reality. Peter Frankopan stresses the urgency of a collective response to problems, and calls for the need to prepare new generations for a world where populism and political crises are intensifying. The interview with the historian not only gives us a perspective about the future, but also reinforces the importance of learning from the past in order to better manage the present and plan for the future.

Even as temperatures increase, sea levels rise, and natural disasters escalate, our current environmental crisis feels difficult to predict and understand. But climate change and its effects on us are not new. In a bold narrative that spans centuries and continents, Peter Frankopan argues that nature has always played a fundamental role in the writing of history. From the fall of the Moche civilization in South America that came about because of the cyclical pressures of El Niño to volcanic eruptions in Iceland that affected Egypt and helped bring the Ottoman empire to its knees, climate change and its influences have always been with us. Frankopan explains how the Vikings emerged thanks to catastrophic crop failure, why the roots of regime change in eleventh-century Baghdad lay in the collapse of cotton prices resulting from unusual climate patterns, and why the western expansion of the frontiers in North America was directly affected by solar flare activity in the eighteenth century. Again and again, Frankopan shows that when past empires have failed to act sustainably, they have been met with catastrophe.

Frankopan explains how the Vikings emerged thanks to catastrophic crop failure, why the roots of regime change in eleventh-century Baghdad lay in the collapse of cotton prices resulting from unusual climate patterns, and why the western expansion of the frontiers in North America was directly affected by solar flare activity in the eighteenth century. Again and again, Frankopan shows that when past empires have failed to act sustainably, they have been met with catastrophe. Blending brilliant historical writing and cutting-edge scientific research, The Earth Transformedwill radically reframe the way we look at the world and our future.

The Silk Roads Full Free Audio Book SummaryCome to Bookey Book Summary to unlock more content. Were you under the impression that the Silk Road was just a trade route? Or a ‘belt' around the world? The history of the Silk Road is a condensed version of world history. The historical journeys of countries don't happen in isolation – but are instead all inextricably linked to the Silk ‘Roads'. The book's author redefines world history from the perspective of the Silk Road. By reading this book, you will discover that the Silk Road not only encompasses the history of humans, but also determines the future of the world. Overview | Chapter 1Hi, welcome to Bookey. Today we'll unlock the book The Silk Roads: A New History of the World. When discussing the Silk Road, most people view it as an ancient trade route that connects the East with the West. History bestowed it with a great deal of mystery and legend: camels and goods travelled on the trade route; merchants of different races, different countries, and diverse cultural backgrounds interacted and traded with each other; Chinese silk and porcelain flowed along this trade route to various countries in the west. Silver from western countries also moved to the east on the same path… This account of The Silk Roads that we will uncover today uses multiple threads to tell the stories that took place on the Silk Road, starting more than 2,000 years ago. The book begins its story with the creation of the Silk Road. Using a broad time frame, it recounts the stories of countries from their peak to their decline, and from humble beginnings to becoming entities that wield absolute power. It has shaped world history into a brand-new system. It reveals to people that for much of history, the world's axis revolved around the Silk Road. Each countries history doesn't evolve in isolation and is more or less associated with the Silk Road. From the Silk Road, we can see that the world is smaller and more accessible than we've previously imagined. World history has been redefined. Once the book The Silk Roads was published, it quickly became a best-selling book around the world, and was even listed as No.1 in World History on Amazon UK! It was also no.1 in the genre of Historical Geography on Amazon US and no.1 on the list of non-fiction best sellers in India. It was also recommended by various organizations and figures. The People's Daily in China recommended it twice in 19 days, which was an unprecedented move by the most influential Chinese publication. The Times commented on the book saying: “Many books have been written which claim to be ‘A New History of the World.' This rare one fully deserves the title.” The Economist stated: Frankopan uses exquisite and intelligent language to interpret a world history revolving around the East. The famous British historian William Dalrymple lavishly praised the book by saying: “ambition that is rare … a remarkable book on many levels, a proper historical epic of dazzling range and achievement.” Peter Frankopan is the author of this book and a famous British historian. He has received considerable attention from mainstream academic historians around the world because he's shown a talent for examining the anatomy of the contemporary world from a perspective that differs from European history. For this book, The Silk Roads, in particular, he consulted all the literary and historical resources that he could find in libraries around the world. Finally, he wrote this well sourced book which included nearly a hundred citations for each chapter on average,

The first event marking Black History Month UK took place thirty five years ago, and the re-claiming and documenting of Black British and International History has since evolved into a national movement. But how much has changed in those three decades? The historian Miranda Kaufmann has spent years uncovering evidence of Africans in Renaissance Britain. Her first book Black Tudors: The Untold Story was published five years ago and has since become a free online course. The British Nigerian poet Yomi Ṣode interweaves his native Yoruba with English slang in his debut collection Manorism. He explores what it means to grow up black in Britain and the pressure to be constantly adapting his behaviour and language. But he also shows the past works in mysterious ways by finding inspiration in the life of the 17th century Italian painter, Caravaggio. The curator Christine Checinska explores how fashion has formed a key part of Africa's cultural renaissance in a ground-breaking exhibition at the V&A. Africa Fashion starts with the years of African independence that sparked radical political and social movements. But the show also includes contemporary designers who have broken with historical ideas to look to the future. The historian Peter Frankopan makes the case for world history – a view of the past from multiple foci – in the essay collection, What Is History, Now? He questions the role of history; whose stories are told and why. But the challenge of broadening horizons to encompass the whole world can make it oversimplistic and fractured. Frankopan believes the job of the historian is to look at the connections between societies, and explore what the past can tell about today's world.

Im Jahr 1098 hatten sich zehntausende christliche Streiter dem Ersten Kreuzzug angeschlossen, um Jerusalem und das heilige Land im Namen des Kreuzes zu erobern. Doch auf halber Strecke, mitten im Herrschaftsgebiet der türkischen Seldschuken, drohte der Kreuzzug bereits zu scheitern. Vor den Toren Antiochias, der stark befestigten Metropole am Orontes, begannen die Kreuzfahrer eine Belagerung und damit ein Rennen auf Zeit: Wenn es ihnen nicht gelingen würde, die Stadt einzunehmen, bevor die ihnen überlegene muslimische Armee eintraf, wären sie alle verloren. In dieser Situation schien der einzige Ausweg eine wagemutige Geheimoperation zu sein... ......... Literatur zur Folge: Harari, Yuval Noah: Fürsten im Fadenkreuz.

Stiamo attraversando un'epoca di transizione. Il mondo attorno a noi sta mutando rapidamente. Per prepararci e adattarci, il primo passo è capire cosa sta succedendo e perché. Ma per farlo bisogna modificare radicalmente il modo in cui guardiamo il passato e il presente – e cambiare il nostro modo di guardare la Storia. Molti pensano alla via della seta come a un'esotica curiosità del passato. Ma le reti che hanno collegato l'Asia all'Europa e all'Africa e, più tardi, alle Americhe, sono — e sono sempre state — il sistema nervoso centrale del pianeta. Nel XXI secolo le vie della seta stanno risorgendo. E il destino dell'Occidente continuerà a essere sempre indissolubilmente legato a quello dell'Oriente.

Har du nogensinde tænkt over, hvad økonomi er for en videnskab? Hvordan opstod den, og hvem var dens grundlæggere? Eller har du interesseret dig for moderne diskussioner om samfundet, herunder ulighed, ressourceforbrug eller konkurrence? Hvis dette er tilfældet, er økonomiens teorihistorie vigtig og nyttig for dig. Den type af diskussioner er nemlig mindst lige så gammel som den økonomiske videnskab selv, og du vil i dens rødder også finde rødderne til de moderne argumenter. Til dagens afsnit har jeg læst: Boettke, P. J. (2012). Living Economics. Oakland: Independent Institute. Davies, R. (2019). Extreme Economies: Survival, Failure, Future-Lessons from the World's Limits. New York: Random House. Follett, K. (1989). The Pillars of the Earth. New York: Penguin Random House. Follett, K. (2007). World Without End. New York: Penguin Random House. Frankopan, P. (2019). The New Silk Roads: The Present and Future of the World. New York: Knopf. Varberg, J., Grautze, B., & Kaul, F. (2014). Glasvejen. Skalk. Hayek, F. A. (1948). Individualism and Economic Order. Chicago: University of Chicago Press. Hayek, F. A. (1978). Law, Legislation, and Liberty. Chicago: University of Chicago Press. Leeson, P. T. (2012). Ordeals. The Journal of Law and Economics, 691-714. Marwick, B. (2003). Pleistocene Eschange Network as Evidence for the Evolution of Language. Cambridge Archaeological Journal, 67-81.   I like to dedicate this season to my teachers Ole Bruus and Bruce Caldwell. All mistakes and mispronunciations are mine alone and no fault of theirs.

In this episode of Crossroads we discuss with Princess Ingrid Detter de Frankopan about the philosophy of law, and explore the ideas of whether values and morals are innate.

Eccoci di nuovo pronti ad allietarvi (?) il fine settimana con una nuova scintillante puntata di Incassaforte Pod. Come al solito iniziamo rispondendo alla domanda di un ascoltatore, poi passiamo a commentare questo articolo del sole 24 ore in cui si parla di università. L'articolo tratta i temi di uno studio dell’OCSE (OECD) intitolato “Education at a Glance”, che potete trovare qui. I dati indicano che laurearsi conviene, anche in Italia, anche se meno che altrove. Questo viene in parte compensato dal fatto che, da noi, studiare costa poco. A penalizzare i nostri compatrioti c'è la triste tendenza a laurearsi in cose inutili. Questo ed altro nella nuova puntata di Incassaforte Pod, il podcast di incassaforte.com. Come sempre, potete scaricarlo ed iscrivervi su iTunes oppure sulla pagina di Posdbean. Se tutto e’ andato bene, dovreste ora trovarci anche su Spotify. Io non lo uso quindi non ho modo di verificare. I consigli della settimana sono: Andrea: American Gangster, eccellente film di Ridley Scott. Carlo: Le nuove vie della seta, libro di P. Frankopan che parla di come il baricentro del mondo si sia spostato ad est. Tommaso: 21 Lezioni per il 21esimo secolo, ultimo libro di Yuval Noah Harari (quello di Sapiens)    

Peter Frankopan is a Professor of Global History at Oxford University, Director at the Oxford Centre for Byzantine Research and an author. In the west we tend to have a view that our own political, economical and cultural situations are the most important on the planet. We tend to believe that we are principally shaping the direction the world heads in. Today Peter offers an alternative view which identifies the rapid rate of change seen in Asia over the last few years which could change not only the financial and commercial but the cultural focus of the globe.
