"Porter's sensitive, learned, and accessible account is highly recommended for anyone wishing to acquire a deeper knowledge of the history of modern Algeria, as well as of the range of anarchist approaches, in both France and Algeria, to the pathways of Algerian politics before and since independence." --Mohammed Bamyeh, author of Anarchy as Order: The History and Future of Civic Humanity "Eyes to the South makes a significant and valuable contribution to a small but growing literature analyzing the complex and problematic engagement of anarchists with decolonization in general, and Algeria in particular." ?David Berry, author of A History of the French Anarchist Movement, 1917 to 1945 makes a significant and valuable contribution to a small but growing literature analyzing the complex and problematic engagement of anarchists with decolonization in general, and Algeria in particular." --David Berry, author of A History of the French Anarchist Movement, 1917 to 1945 Eyes to the South explores important issues from the last six tumultuous decades of Algerian history, including French colonial rule, nationalist revolution, experiments in workers' self-management, the rise of radical Islamist politics, an insurgent revival of traditional decentralist resistance and political structures, conflicts over cultural identity, women's emancipation, and major "blowback" on the ex-colonial power itself. David Porter's nuanced examination of these issues helps to clarify Algeria's current political, economic, and social conditions, and resonates with continuing conflicts and change in Africa and the Middle East more generally. At the same time, Eyes to the South describes and analyzes the observers themselves--the various components of the French anarchist movement--and helps to clarify and enrich the discussion of issues such as national liberation, violence, revolution, the role of religion, liberal democracy, worker self-management, and collaboration with statists in the broader anarchist and anti-authoritarian movements.

Former MP David Porter's third novel is set in an East Anglian care home for one-time MPS, Lords and senior civil servants, that boasts its own 'Commons Chamber' to relive their glory days.Prone to falls, James Ellington reluctantly moves in to satisfy his family and is at once immersed in a nightmare world of deluded, confused, decrepit shadows of their former selves. After attack from a mobility scooter and meat cleaver by a loopy fellow resident, he uncovers dastardly plans from the management (his former Parliamentary 'Honourable Friend') herding elderly people past their best.Deadly serious, yet rich in comic people, events and mishaps, the story comes from his Parliamentary experiences and the inevitable consequences of living so long.His novels, Old Men's Dreams and Detestable Things and short story anthologies Wild Beasts and Plague, Scoffers Will Come and The Scapegoat Keeper are available in paperback or Kindle.

Today's business environment presents business leaders with an ever-increasing set of complex requirements. From cyber security to quality, compliance to customers, getting things right for customer and regulatory keeps leaders up at night wondering how to meet all these requirements while still delivering on customers needs. Many believe one of the culprits in these difficult challenges is silos. Silos are perceived as obstacles to the efficient and effective operation of an organization. Nothing could be more wrong. Transform Silos to Pillars walks the reader through a different approach. Rather than eliminate silos, readers are encouraged to understand the strength silos bring to organizations and their delivery to the customer. Silos are the foundation of an organization's greatness and should be addressed in that manner. The challenge is designing and managing the silo in a way that optimizes its effectiveness within the context of customer and organizational needs. Transform Silos to Pillars introduces the reader to the Hub Leader who possesses a unique set of skills to connect within and across silos. The goal is to take the non-operational requirements an organization must meet (compliance, quality, security, etc.) and integrate those into operational processes. This approach avoids the ineffective layering of such requirements on top of operational work which leads to frustration and resistance. In the end, silos that have these Core Thread non-operational activities integrated into their operational processes have better designed and optimized delivery as well as a more compliance posture.
