Praise for The BeadworkersLong&#8211;listed for the 2020 PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Short Story CollectionLong&#8211;listed for the 2020 Aspen Words Literary PrizeShortlisted for the 2019 NCIBA Golden Poppy Book AwardLong&#8211;listed for the 2019 Northern California Golden Poppy Book Award in Fiction"Provocative . . . [A] richly layered debut short story collection . . . A collection that gives voice to what is so often left unsaid." &#8212;San Francisco Chronicle"Piatote is Nez Perce, and a Native American Studies professor at UC Berkeley. In this eloquent and elucidating debut story collection she brings the Native experience to life&#8212;from the long line of broken treaties and the tragic effect on Native tribes from coast to coast to contemporary repercussions from forced attendance at Indian boarding schools . . . Piatote draws the reader in with spare and perceptive language and resonate empathy for each struggling yet resilient character." &#8212;Booklist"Piatote&#8217;s debut collection mixes poetry, verse, and prose to form an impressive reflection on the lives of modern Native Americans. Piatote, a Nez Perce enrolled with the Colville Confederated Tribes, fits much nuance and profundity into stories that often reflect on the ways in which contemporary mainstream American culture continues to erase the identities and traditions of indigenous groups . . . This beautiful collection announces Piatote as a writer to watch." &#8212;Publishers Weekly"Hope and heartbreak abound in this debut collection set among Native Americans in the northwest . . . Piatote balances the emotional complexities of her characters' lives with the political complexity of their relationship with an America all too eager to look away. A poignant and challenging look at the way the past and present collide." &#8212;Kirkus Reviews"Her prose might be lean, but as a whole her debut short story collection, The Beadworkers, is lush and kaleidoscopic . . . With humor, compassion, and insight, it explores the ease with which conflict seeps through time, and celebrates the resilience of people, beauty, and art in its midst." &#8212;Sam Levin, The Los Angeles Review of Books"This stunning debut collection marks the arrival of a brilliant storyteller; Beth Piatote weaves together political, historical, and personal themes to offer new perspectives on the human condition . . . Piatote, who is Nez Perce, writes with dazzling clarity, emotion, and bone&#8211;dry humor about the lives of indigenous people, in what feels like a celebration, an act of love, and one of the most unforgettable story collections of the year." &#8212;Kristin Iversen, NYLON"Gripping and utterly readable . . . The stories here are wide&#8211;ranging but encompass many perspectives of Indigenous people in North America." &#8212;Literary Hub"The short story collection The Beadworkers mixes prose, poetry, and verse to create a rich tapestry of Native&#8211;American cultural heritage. There is a sparseness to Beth Piatote&#8217;s prose that belies the depth of her chosen subject and the long, complicated history of American Indian Law. Hers is a language that pulls you along and manages to convey both the troubling injustice faced by Native peoples in this country and a sense of joy and celebration, especially when she is writing about the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest, the lyricism of the Nez Perce language, or the power of kinship." &#8212;Carrie V. Mullins, Electric Literature"This exceptional debut collection is as accessible as it is experimental. The Beadworkers combines poetry and prose in a set of Native American stories that decolonize the short story form while mastering it." &#8212;Book Riot"Beth Piatote strings together stories like the intricate strands of a handmade necklace. The Beadworkers gathers those strings together into an illustrious whole. Piatote, who is Nez Perce and an associate professor of Native American studies, has previously written both scholarly and creative works. She brings her expertise to the page with this collection, where individual pieces often defy genre labels . . . The collected pieces of The Beadworkers explore place and identity in vibrant scenes. Throughout, Piatote reveals Native American life in contexts modern, historic and mythical." &#8212;Carla Jean Whitley, BookPage"The Beadworkers is a feast of wit and storytelling. I read it once to see where Piatote would go next. Twice to savor the emotional, cultural, and structural resonance of this wonderful work." &#8212;Louise Erdrich, author of The Night Watchman&#8220;Beth Piatote&#8217;s debut collection is smart, layered, and inventive. This is a profound and humorous meditation on Native families, language, and life. It is braided, and beaded, and true.&#8221; &#8212;Tommy Orange, author of There There"Beth Piatote has created a ritual of clarity, transformation, and wonder. Elegant and vivid, her book is alive, and it will make its readers see the world in a bright new light. I can't recommend it highly enough." &#8212;Luis Alberto Urrea, author of The House of Broken Angels"Beth Piatote&#8217;s marvelous debut short story collection explores crossroads in the lives of unforgettable Indigenous characters within urban, suburban, rural and reservation settings, both past and present . . . The Beadworkers is an intricate and poignant set of meditations on how to move forward with identity and hope intact while reconciling with loss, both collective and personal." &#8212;Erin Keane and Ashlie D. Stevens, Salon"The Beadworkers is beautifully crafted with indigenous storytelling techniques and narrative designs. Throughout, Beth Piatote renders Native American life in all its emotional complexity, profound tragedy, subversive humor, and transformative resilience. After the final drum beat, this book becomes an offering to ancestors, a feast of words, and a water song flowing across generations." &#8212;Craig Santos Perez, author of from unincorporated territory [lukao]"The Beadworkers is an essential celebration of language, kinship, and the enduring power of story. In an exhilarating diversity of voices and literary forms, and with extraordinary heart and artistic precision, this book moves, teaches, and surprises. Beth Piatote is a writer to cherish and trust." &#8212;David Chariandy, author of I've Been Meaning to Tell You&#8220;I loved it! It was like an adventure into Indian Thinking. Beth Piatote weaves characters, myths, emotions, and elements together like she is weaving a fine Plateau cornhusk bag. The stories engage your senses, emotions, and memories like a trip to the reservation. I knew I wanted to read this book again before I was even halfway through! I could feel the wind from the river, and I could smell the fragrance of freshly picked huckleberries on a warm summer day by reading her words and going to her places in the book. I could identify with some characters, and other familiar characters resounded with me to the point that it felt like this book was written just for me. I think a lot of people could get that feeling from reading this book." &#8212;Marcus Amerman, traditional beadworker

'Overall, the collection explores the rich and fruitful results of engagement with Butler's work... the collection is a fine companion to Butler's texts... I would recommend the interview and the more applied chapters as a particularly effective way to teach Butler to advanced undergraduate and graduate students... I would also recommend portions of the text [...] for the important questions they raise about the politics of Butler's uncomfortably foundational status in post-structuralist feminist and queer theory.' Association for Feminist Anthropology  ’... a timely edited collection of essays assessing the critic's impact on feminist and queer studies... searching and provoking questions... clearly invaluable to researchers in this field... provoking some revealing answers... a valid contribution to the study of queer theory...’ The Year's Work in Critical and Cultural Theory

It is high time for a reboot of Crimes of the Powerful and this authoritative anthology accomplishes that task. The editors have rejuvenated a text at risk of becoming criminology’s most prophetic yet esoteric treatise: the foundational and ground-breaking Marxist analysis of corporate crime.

Building on the pioneering research of Frank Pearce, this timely collection demonstrates convincingly that power and crime are intimately linked. Critical, rigorous, and precise, it offers fresh ways of seeing our deeply troubled world and provides intelligent remedies for our real crime problem.

Introduction to Probability, Second Edition

'In this wide-ranging work of pluralist and critical political economy, Wolfgang Hoeschele deploys an analysis of the manufacture of scarcity to develop a comprehensive critique of contemporary capitalist society. While building on a broad tradition of critique this book offers an original and innovative approach: scarcity while often at the centre of political economic analysis frequently remains un-examined; this serious lacunae is comprehensively remedied by Hoeschele. This work's focus on scarcity is balanced and complemented by a discussion of the creation of abundance (material and spiritual) as a political project of alternative development. This confirms that excellent critical work cannot only criticise but must offer a plausible alternative path.'  Christopher May,  Professor of Political Economy, Lancaster University   ’Hoeschele superbly exposes the anatomy of scarcity that capitalism must constantly produce in order to be, and does so by masterfully generating desire for unneeded things. But he also offers a surprisingly feasible possibility to change our world of scarcity and unsustainable growth into the world of abundance and justice to nature and ourselves. A very timely and imaginative book.’  Marianna Pavlovskaya, Associate Professor of Geography, Hunter College and CUNY Graduate Center  '...this is economics that provokes and questions.  It’s a bold thought experiment that opens up new possibilities at a time when we desperately need them. The Economics of Abundance is the first in the new Green Economics and Sustainable Growth Series. If the rest of the series lives up to the this one, it’ll be an intriguing new discussion.   http://makewealthhistory.org/2010/07/19/the-economics-of-abundance-by-wolfgang-hoeschele/  ’The diagnosis is certainly provocative, in turning the mainstream economics on its head. The prescriptions are surprisingly grounded and range across institutional reform, community action and political strategy. By way of

"The essays in this necessary book exemplify why it is so important that the priestly and scholarly vocations find their home in one person. This book will begin a conversation that has long been needed." 
- Stanley Hauerwas, Duke University, USA
"It is a delight to read contributions from those who preside at table on Sunday and engage students in the classroom on Monday. And we need such publications—those that foster good conversation about this and other dual vocations where the two sides of the duality can be held in dynamic tension."
- Gordon T. Smith, Ambrose University, Calgary, Canada, in International Jornal of Christianity & Education
"I found this book to be cathartic in its recognition of the problem and stimulating in its encouragement to persist."
