ON THE NATURE OF BEAUTIFUL ART: LITERATURE FOR LIFE A paean to Romanticism, Poeticism and Aestheticism, in a Manifesto on the Nature of Art, its place in the world, and on the cultivation of a viable Life of Letters in a Culture of Beauty.

Strained Peace: Northern Ireland from Good Friday to Brexit
Winner of the 2025 British Association for Irish Studies Book Prize As the United Kingdom continues to grapple with the aftermath of Brexit, one corner of the Union has remained caught in the crosshairs. Northern Ireland has been the subject of renewed scrutiny since 2016, as efforts to leave the European Union come up against the terms of the Good Friday Agreement and threaten the region’s hard-won peace. The reasons for these challenges can be traced back to the Agreement itself, as the negotiated settlement and its immediate aftermath set in place a strained peace. This book examines the function – and dysfunction – of peace after 1998 to explain why its endurance cannot be taken for granted. Strained peace stands apart from the traditional peace/violence binary. Structures of conflict and patterns of division are reiterated in the structures of peace. Tensions might relax just as they might be inflamed by new challenges, but the threat of a return to violence is never fully gone. This book explores how such a condition developed between Good Friday and Brexit, addressing variations in the quality of peace in the insecurity of official structures at Stormont, the shifting role of community groups and the third sector, and the adaptation of culture as a “culture war” replaced physical violence on the streets.

Det blir krig nu: Hur gängens våld blev vår vardag
Det första som händer Amanda Hällsten när hon börjar som kriminalreporter på Aftonbladet är att hon kontaktas av en person från foxtrotnätverket, therealbenzema : Tja, ring mig . Det ska komma att fortsätta. Hon är då endast 28 år, har endast jobbat som i journalist i tre år och ska komma att ha en av de värsta gängkriminella i telefonen varje dag. Detta är mitt i den tid som medierna kallade svarta september , den period då det skedde mord, våldsdåd, skjutningar och sprängningar nästan varje dag, ibland flera våldsamma händelser om dagen. Det blir krig nu är bland annat en berättelse om att vara kriminalreporter och vara i tjänst nästan dygnet runt, åka från skjutning till skjutning, från sprängning till sprängning, från mord till mord, följa de gängkriminellas utspel i sociala medier – men också att träffa människorna som bor i grannhusen, de anhöriga till de skjutna, de som ibland inte haft någonting med gängkriminaliteten att göra. Men Amanda träffar inte bara dem. Hon träffar också tonåringarna som rekryteras till uppdragen och deras anhöriga, hon intervjuar socialarbetare, lärare och poliser. Amanda Hällstens sitter i reporterbilen mitt i den gängkriminella tryckvågen som drar över Sverige från sommaren 2023 till idag, men tappar aldrig fokus på samhället och möter alla inblandade: gängledarna, människorna som drabbas, musikerna, rättssamhället som på olika sätt försöker stävja kriminaliteten, politikerna och de på fältet som räddar barnsoldaterna ur de kriminellas klor. Hon upptäcker hur kriminaliteten går genom alla samhällsklasser – det är inne att vara kriminell. Amanda Hällstens Det blir krig nu är en rapport från ett slagfält – men det är också en djupt personlig skildring av att vara ung reporter och kastas in ett gängkrig som har få motsvarigheter i världen.
