An Agenda for Britain

Frank Field

An Agenda for Britain

Originally published in 1993, An Agenda for Britain offers a radical vision for the future of Britain and the Labour Party.Unemployment, Frank Field argues, must be the major issue on the political agenda; welfare should be taken ‘out of the ghetto’ and made part of the debate about Britain’s economic and industrial future; and employees should have much greater control over their own pension capital. The adoption of this reforming agenda is, he believes, essential if the Labour Party is to be...

The Age of Consent

George Monbiot

The Age of Consent

Waiting for the Etonians: Reports from the Sickbed of Liberal England

You Can’t Read This Book: Censorship in an Age of Freedom

From the fall of the Berlin Wall to the advert of the Web, everywhere you turn you are told that we live in age of unparalleled freedom. This is dangerously naïve.

How Obama Embraces Islam's Sharia Agenda

While Americans focus on terrorism, a more insidious Islamist threat to our way of life lurks. It is the agenda of sharia, Islamâ€™s authoritarian legal and political system. The global Islamist movement aims, in the words of the international Muslim Brotherhood, to destroy the West by sabotaging it from within. Its principal strategy is not mass-murder but the exploitation of Western freedoms and the insinuation of sharia principles into Western legal systems....

What to Do About the U.N.

Claudia Rosett

What to Do About the U.N.

The United Nations is failing abysmally, and dangerously, in its mission. Founded in 1945 as a vehicle to avert war and promote human dignity and freedom, the U.N. has instead become a self-serving and ever-expanding haven of privilege for the world’s worst regimes, rife with bigotry, fraud, abuse, and corruption, both financial and moral. Yet the American foreign policy community treats it as taboo to speak seriously about sidelining, supplanting, or leaving the U.N. The usual argument is that...

Манифест Коммунистической партии

"Призрак бродит по Европе – призрак коммунизма" – известная цитата, обошедшая весь мир, пошла именно из этого выдающегося произведения политической мысли. «Манифест» на долгое время определил направление общественной мысли, однако и по сей день он актуален как важное историческое свидетельство и «шедевр политического красноречия», как называл его Умберто Эко. Карл Маркс и Фридрих Энгельс зафиксировали в нем текущую экономическую и политическую ситуацию, но время показало, что они стали...
