Reconstruction
'Masterful . . . superior entertainment that makes most other novels of suspense appear dull and slow-witted by comparison' Publishers WeeklyWhat should have been a simple pick-up turns into a day-long nightmare for Bad Sam Chapman. When an operational catastrophe puts a gun in the hands of a young man, who then breaks into South Oxford Nursery School and takes a group of hostages, teacher Louise Kennedy fears the worst.But Jaime Segura isn't there on a homicidal mission, and he's just as scared as those whose lives he holds as collateral.As an armed police presence builds outside the school's gates, Bad Sam Chapman - head of the intelligence service's internal security force, the Dogs - battles the clock to find out what Jaime is after.But the only person Jaime will talk to is Ben Whistler, an MI6 accountant who worked with Jaime's lover, Miro.Miro's gone missing, along with a quarter of a billion pounds allotted for reconstruction work in Iraq.Jaime refuses to believe that Miro is a thief - though he's always had his secrets.But then, so does Louise, so do the other hostages - and so do some people on the outside, who'd much rather Jaime was silenced.

Reconstruction and Mormon America
The South has been the standard focus of Reconstruction, but reconstruction following the Civil War was not a distinctly Southern experience.In the post-Civil War West, American Indians also experienced reconstruction through removal to reservations and assimilation to Christianity, and Latter-day Saints - Mormons - saw government actions to force the end of polygamy under threat of disestablishing the church.These efforts to bring nonconformist Mormons into the American mainstream figure in the more familiar scheme of the federal government's reconstruction - aimed at rebellious white Southerners and uncontrolled American Indians.In this volume, more than a dozen contributors look anew at the scope of the reconstruction narrative and offer a unique perspective on the history of the Latter-day Saints. Marshaled by editors Clyde A. Milner II and Brian Q. Cannon, these writers explore why the federal government wanted to reconstruct Latter-day Saints, when such efforts began, and how the initiatives compare with what happened with white Southerners and American Indians.Other contributions examine the effect of the government's policies on Mormon identity and sense of history.Why, for example, do Latter-day Saints not have a Lost Cause?Do they share a resentment with American Indians over the loss of sovereignty? And were nineteenth-century Mormons considered to be on the ""wrong"" side of a religious line, but not a ""race line""?The authors consider these and other vital questions and topics here.Together, and in dialogue with one another, their work suggests a new way of understanding the regional, racial, and religious dynamics of reconstruction - and, within this framework, a new way of thinking about the creation of a Mormon historical identity.

Reconstruction: A Concise History
The era known as Reconstruction is one of the unhappiest times in American history.It succeeded in reuniting the nation politically after the Civil War but in little else.Conflict shifted from the battlefield to the Capitol as Congress warred with President Andrew Johnson over just what to do with the South.Johnson's plan of Presidential Reconstruction, which was sympathetic to the former Confederacy and allowed repressive measures such as the "black codes," would ultimately lead to his impeachment and the institution of Radical Reconstruction.While Reconstruction saw the ratification of the 14th and 15th Amendments, expanding the rights and suffrage of African Americans, it largely failed to chart a progressive course for race relations after the abolition of slavery and the rise of Jim Crow.It also struggled to manage the Southern resistance towards a Northern free-labor economy.However, these failures cannot obscure a number of accomplishments with long-term consequences for American life, among them the Civil Rights Act, the election of the first African American representatives to Congress, and the avoidance of renewed civil war.Reconstruction suffered from poor leadership and uncertainty of direction, but it also laid the groundwork for renewed struggles for racial equality during the civil rights movement.In this concise history, award-winning historian Allen C.Guelzo delves into the constitutional, political, and social issues behind Reconstruction to provide a lucid and original account of a historical moment that left an indelible mark on the American social fabric.

Reconstruction as Violence in Syria
A sustained critique of postwar reconstruction in Syria as a politically neutral process In 2011, emboldened by the Arab Spring, the Syrians rose up against their government.The Syrian regime used violence to suppress the protests, so that what began as pro-democracy protests eventually morphed into a civil war with heavy outside intervention.Today, the regime has regained partial control of the country, but large parts of it lie in ruins, millions of Syrians are displaced, and the economy is in freefall.Reconstruction as Violence delves into the complex interplay of post-conflict reconstruction in Syria, challenging the traditionally held dichotomy between the end of violence and the commencement of rebuilding. The contributors to this volume—architects, urbanists, geographers, and historians—employ critical concepts such as urbicide, domicide, and “civilian crisis architecture” to argue against the conventional theoretical frameworks that support a neat separation of phases.They illustrate how reconstruction often extends the dynamics of conflict into the urban and social realms, suggesting that the built environment becomes a battleground for further violence.They emphasize the importance of acknowledging the historical, economic, societal, legal, and bureaucratic contexts that shape reconstruction efforts, arguing for initiatives that prioritize equity, inclusivity, and community participation. Reconstruction as Violence starkly underscores the authors’ stance that to overlook any of these dimensions, or to disengage from the reconstruction process altogether, represents a political choice with potentially detrimental effects on Syria and beyond in the Arab world, where countries like Palestine, Yemen, Libya, Iraq, Lebanon, and Sudan are undergoing similar cycles of destruction and rebuilding.It calls for a reimagined approach to reconstruction, one that fosters peace, resilience, and social justice in post-conflict societies.
