The Politics of Latino Faith

Catherine E. Wilson

The Politics of Latino Faith

Pundits and commentators are constantly striving to understand the political behavior of Latinos—the largest minority in the United States and a key voting block. As Catherine E. Wilson makes clear in The Politics of Latino Faith , not only are Latinos a religious community, but their religious institutions, in particular faith-based organizations, inform daily life and politics in Latino communities to a considerable degree.Timely and discerning, The Politics of Latino Faith is a...

Jazz, Rock, and Rebels

Uta G. Poiger

Jazz, Rock, and Rebels

In the two decades after World War II, Germans on both sides of the iron curtain fought vehemently over American cultural imports. Uta G. Poiger traces how westerns, jeans, jazz, rock 'n' roll, and stars like Marlon Brando or Elvis Presley reached adolescents in both Germanies, who eagerly adopted the new styles. Poiger reveals that East and West German authorities deployed gender and racial norms to contain Americanized youth cultures in their own territories and to carry on the...

Мужчины учат меня жить

Ребекка Солнит

Мужчины учат меня жить

Эта книга – глубокий, всесторонний разговор о женском голосе. Ребекка Солнит рассказывает не только о менсплейнинге, который этот голос игнорирует, – она затрагивает множество острых, болезненных тем, каждая из которых громко свидетельствует об угнетении женщин. Жестокость, насилие, равнодушие, замалчивание – все это попадает во внимание журналистки, которая с холодной головой и беспощадной честностью обличает дискриминацию женщин. От живописи до кино, от прозы Вирджинии Вулф до историй жертв...

Новая власть. Какие силы управляют миром – и как заставить их работать на вас

Трамп выигрывает выборы, Airbnb стоит больше, чем Hilton, а любую компанию может разрушить гневный твит обиженного клиента, который молниеносно распространяют тысячи пользователей. Объяснение всему – новая власть. На протяжении почти всей истории человечества власть была у тех, кто «наверху»: правителей, церковных иерархов, знати или крупных корпораций. Теперь люди могут объединяться и самоорганизовываться онлайн, без оглядки на географические границы. И с беспрецедентной скоростью влиять на...

Syriza Wave

Helena Sheehan

Syriza Wave

Utterly corrupt corporate and government elites bankrupted Greece twice over. First, by profligate deficit spending benefitting only themselves; second, by agreeing to an IMF “bailout” of the Greek economy, devastating ordinary Greek citizens who were already enduring government-induced poverty, unemployment, and hunger. Finally, in response to dire “austerity” measures, the people of Greece stood up, forming, from their own historic roots of resistance,...

Social Class in Europe

Étienne Penissat

Social Class in Europe

Over the last ten years the issue of Europe has been placed at the centre of major political conflicts, revealing profound splits in society. These splits are represented in terms of an opposition between those countries on the losing and those on the winning sides of globalisation. Inequalities beyond those nations are critically absent from the debate.Based on major European statistical surveys, the new research in this work presents a map of social classes inspired by Pierre Bourdieu’s...

The Politics of the Right

Leo Panitch

The Politics of the Right

Today the Left faces new challenges from political forces amassing on the radical right. The 52nd volume of the Socialist Register presents a serious calibration and a careful political mapping of these forces. It addresses pivotal questions on the reordering of the new right. These essays – very broad in terms of themes and places – speak to the global challenges the new right poses for the left at this historical moment. * What is the nature of the right's populism, nationalism and...

Бэзавы і чорны. Парыж праз акуляры беларускай літаратуры

Кожны пісьменнік піша пра Парыж, нават калі нічога пра яго не ведае і нават тады, калі апісвае сваю родную вёску. Няма нічога весялейшага і рызыкоўнейшага, як блуканьні з мапай Парыжу па беларускай літаратуры і яе ваколіцах, па сваіх і чужых жыцьцях і словах, бяз сэнсу і мэты, як і належыць эўрапейцам, паэтам і марнатраўцам.

Tea Party Women

Melissa Deckman

Tea Party Women

Examines the significant role of women in the conservative movement Notable for its radical conservative views, the Tea Party is progressive in one way that much of mainstream US politics is not: it has among its most vocal members not spokesmen but spokeswomen. Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, Governor Nikki Haley, US Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers, and many others are all prominent figureheads for the fiery and prominent political movement. Many major Tea Party organizations, such as the...

Common Sense (with a Biographical Introduction by John M. Robertson)

First published on January 10, 1776, Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was one the most influential and best-selling works from the colonial period. It has been suggested that it may have been the single biggest factor in inspiring the people of the Thirteen Colonies to declare and fight for their independence from Great Britain beginning in the summer of 1776. One of the central political arguments amongst the colonists of the pre-revolutionary period was whether or not they should indeed seek...

From the calamitous...

Right Turn

Right Turn

It wasn’t so much a big blue machine that chugged its way across Ontario’s political landscape in the spring of 1995 – it was more a big purple bulldozer driven by leader Mike Harris and a new breed of Tories. Gone were the pinstripes and the cigar-chomping backroom boys of the forty-two years of Tory rule. These Tories were young, hip, and they were riding the wave of their Common Sense Revolution, a platform launched a year earlier. Still, there were only a few who thought the PCs stood a...

Aftermath

Thomas E. Hall

Aftermath

Government policies created for one set of purposes almost always generate additional results that were not part of the original plan. Very often these unintended consequences are seriously adverse, and in some cases are so severe as to render the policy a failure. In Aftermath , noted economist Thomas Hall examines four major instances of significant unintended consequences, all of them negative, resulting from major public policies: the federal income tax, cigarette taxes, minimum wage laws,...
