When My Ship Comes Home

The book looks at the investment in shipping by Aberystwyth locals in the mid nineteenth century, when Aberystwyth was amongst the most prominent of the 'lesser' ports of England and Wales, outside places like London, Liverpool and Hull, in terms of the tonnage of its registered fleet. It looks at the occupations of investors and identifies a major contribution by many with no direct connection to shipping or the sea other than living close to it. In effect, because of the lack of local banking, shares in shipping became something akin to a local, tradeable, currency. It also looks at how registers of shipping can be a fruitful source for family historians.

How to Be an Anticapitalist City

How do we find new ways of urban being and doing? This edited collection explores how global capitalism has shaped cities into sites of inequality, precarity and alienation--spaces designed to serve profit rather than people. Drawing on diverse examples, the book analyses how urban life is failing under current economic systems and offers real-world alternatives that promote human flourishing. From rethinking urban governance to exploring community-led initiatives, the collection offers evidence-based visions for cities grounded in care, equity and social purpose. It is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand and transform urban life in the face of deepening global crises.
