Virtually all human societies were once organized tribally, yet over time most developed new political institutions which included a central state that could keep the peace and uniform laws that applied to all citizens. Some went on to create governments that were accountable to their constituents. We take these institutions for granted, but they are absent or are unable to perform in many of today’s developing countries—with often disastrous consequences for the rest of the world.

La stratégie est le nœud de toutes les décisions et la matrice de la plupart des tragédies. En matière de stratégie, c'est avec le monde parfois indocile que la pensée ferraille, sans cesse blessée par la résistance du réel à l'idée. D'origine militaire, irriguant la politique puis l'économie et les affaires, la stratégie a une histoire qui danse avec l'Histoire. Laissez-vous guider à travers cette fresque percutante, de Sun Tzu à Clausewitz pour les champs de bataille - option plein air - et de Michael Steve Jobs pour l'univers économique - option business.

On February 28, 2013, after pleading guilty to violating the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, John Kiriakou began serving a 30 month prison sentence. His crime: blowing the whistle on the CIA's use of torture on al Qaeda prisoners. Doing Time Like a Spy is Kiriakou's memoir of his 23 months in prison. Using 20 life skills he learned in CIA operational training, he was able to keep himself safe and at the top of the prison social heap. It is at once a searing journal of daily prison life and an alternately funny and heartbreaking commentary on the federal prison system. 

In The Fix, McQuade draws on her decades of experience as a federal prosecutor to reveal how systems of organized crime and political opportunism exploit the levers of power—using corruption, cruelty, and chaos as tools to dominate institutions and eliminate accountability. With clarity...

En dix ans, les exportations mondiales ont augmenté trois fois plus vite que la production. Dans le même temps, les investissements internationaux ont été multipliés par dix. La mondialisation concerne la vie de tous, même si bien peu ont le sentiment d'avoir une prise sur elle. Elle existe, en réalité, depuis la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, mais il est encore difficile aujourd'hui d'en comprendre les rouages.

The Vision of the Anointed is a devastating critique of the mindset behind the failed social policies of the past thirty years. Thomas Sowell sees what has happened not as a series of isolated mistakes, but as a logical consequence of a vision whose defects have led to disasters in education, crime, family disintegration, and other social pathology. In this book, "politically correct" theory is repeatedly confronted with facts-and sharp contradictions between the two are explained in terms of a whole set of self-congratulatory assumptions held by political and intellectual elites.

La mondialisation, ce terme aujourd'hui à la mode, n'est pas un phénomène récent. Elle résulte de l'européanisation du monde, c'est-à-dire de l'expansion des nations européennes dans leur mouvement de conquête. L'auteur se propose à la fois de démystifier ce phénomène fondateur de la modernité occidentale, en montrant qu'il n'est porteur d'aucun sens de l'histoire, et d'en étudier les enjeux les plus actuels.

Master of the Senate carries Lyndon Johnson's story through one of its most remarkable periods: his 12 years, from 1949 to 1960, in the United States Senate. Once the most august and revered body in politics, by the time Johnson arrived the Senate had become a parody of itself and an obstacle that for decades had blocked desperately needed liberal legislation. Caro shows how Johnson's brilliance, charm, and ruthlessness enabled him to become the youngest and most powerful Majority Leader in history.

A History of Modern Britain by Andrew Marr confronts head-on the victory of shopping over politics. It tells the story of how the great political visions of New Jerusalem or a second Elizabethan Age, rival idealisms, came to be defeated by a culture of consumerism, celebrity and...
