Part of a coordinated, nationwide Vietnam moratorium effort that confounded and infuriated the Nixon White House, the San Marcos 10 challenged their suspension, taking their case all the way to the United States Supreme Court. Author E. R. Bills offers this fascinating glimpse into the 1960s antiwar movement in Texas, the extraordinary measures to quell it, and the broader social activism in which it participated.

Moralisch Weltspitze, klimabewusst, divers, postkolonial, aber voller Illusionen – ein Sittenbild der bunten deutschen Republik. Man kratzt sich am Kopf. War Deutschland nicht eben noch das beliebteste Land der Welt, beneideter Exportweltmeister und begehrter Investitionsstandort mit einer funktionierenden Verwaltung und bestens ausgebildeten Fachkräften? Der Dreiklang aus Demokratie, Marktwirtschaft und einer Arbeitsdisziplin, die im Rest der Welt zugleich gefürchtet und belächelt wird, hat den Ruf „Made in Germany" zum Weltkulturerbe gemacht.

Meet the Murdochs and the disastrously dysfunctional family of Fox News. Until recently, they formed the most powerful media and political force in America. Now their empire is cracking up and crashing down. As the fallout from the 2020 election and the Dominion lawsuit pummels the reputation of the network, the battling Murdoch heirs position themselves for the final act in this riveting drama.

“When I reflect on my life experience, I can identify three broad categories on which I focused to bring my world into better, more stable, and more successful alignment….” In this challenging and thought-provoking new book, James Oaksun argues that those same three areas–repeal, repair, and prepare–are precisely what Florida, and America, need to focus on in order to thrive in the middle years of the 21st century.

Sixty years ago, legendary economist John Kenneth Galbraith issued a grim prophecy that the global elite would harness the potential of the burgeoning computing revolution to accumulate even more wealth and power.

Un libro que plantea el problema y la solución para lograr la verdadera transformación de México. En 2024, y en un marco institucional degradado, México tendrá la elección más grande de su historia: elegirá a un nuevo presidente, renovará el Congreso y se elegirán nueve gobernadores, así como miles de presidentes municipales y legisladores locales.

Sinkende Wahlbeteiligung, Kirchenaustritte, fallende TV-Quoten und Zeitungs-Auflagen: Viele Menschen fühlen sich vom Angebot, das ihnen die politische und mediale Öffentlichkeit in Deutschland macht, nicht mehr angesprochen. Zugleich erhöhen Multi-Krisen und eine immer kaputtere Daseinsvorsorge – Schienenverkehr, die Schulen, die Verwaltung – den Stress der Bürgerinnen und Bürger. Jetzt wird das Erbe von vier Jahrzehnten neoliberaler Fehlsteuerung des Staates als Erosion der materiellen und mentalen Infrastrukturen erkennbar.

Die Mordserie des NSU (2000–2006), der Terroranschlag von Anders Breivik (2011), das Attentat in München (2016), das Massaker von Christchurch, der Mord an Walter Lübcke (2019), die Anschläge von Halle (2019) und Hanau (2020): Rechtsextreme Gewalt beschäftigt uns schon lange – und in den letzten Jahren besonders massiv. Mit Wahlerfolgen radikaler Parteien, wie zuletzt in Schweden und Italien, droht der Rechtsextremismus mehrheitsfähig zu werden; im Zuge sozialer Proteste könnten extreme Gruppierungen zu einer umfassenden Bewegung zusammenfinden.

When #BlackLivesMatter emerged in 2013, it animated the most consequential Black-led mobilization since the civil rights and Black power era. Today, the hashtag turned rallying cry is but one expression of a radical reorientation toward Black politics, protest, and political thought. To Build a Black Future examines the spirit and significance of this insurgency, offering a revelatory account of a new political culture—responsive to pain, suffused with joy, and premised on care—emergent from the centuries-long arc of Black rebellion, a tradition that traces back to the Black slave.

“Chilling and convincing, Antidemocratic is a must-read.” —Heather Cox Richardson, author of Democracy Awakening “David Daley has been at the absolute forefront of educating us about the theft of our elections by radical Republicans determined to subvert everyone else’s power to choose...

Why do politicians engage in nasty politics? Why do they use insult, accusations, intimidation, and in rare cases violence against their domestic political opponents? In Nasty Politics, Thomas Zeitzoff answers these questions by examining this global political trend in the US, Ukraine, and Israel and looking at how key leaders such as Trump, Zelensky, and Netanyahu use it. Nasty Politics highlights how it influences the kinds of politicians who run for office and deepens our understanding for why so many politicians now rely on outsized anger and withering insults for political gain.

Told through the lenses of specific people who both influenced the process and were impacted by the results, The Electoral College looks at how the Electoral College has changed US history and why it endures.

Protegidas por el alto mando del país, las verdaderas dueñas del poder siempre han sido las primeras damas: quienes han utilizado a su favor los secretos más confidenciales del Estado para orquestar jugosos acuerdos y favores para sus allegados, al tiempo que aparentaban ser las protectoras de la nación. Algunas construyeron mansiones millonarias a costa del erario; casi todas remodelaron a capricho Los Pinos, o colocaron a sus hijos y parientes en posiciones privilegiadas; incluso, una tuvo un amante clarividente y otra solapó por años el contrabando de petróleo.

In a divided America, the biggest solvable problem fueling political extremism and dysfunction is hiding in plain sight: party primaries. The Primary Solution is the “thought-provoking” (Arnold Schwarzenegger) answer the country needs. Congress has become an unproductive and unaccountable...

Robert L. Fleegler's narrative history of the 1988 election draws from untapped archival sources and revealing oral history interviews to uncover just how consequential this moment was for American politics. Identifying the seeds of political issues to come, Fleegler delivers an engaging review of an election that set a template for the political dynamics that define our lives to this day.

This is a hard-hitting, no-nonsense book of commentaries that confronts the Democratic Party's playbook of using identity politics to divide Americans. The Boy Who Cried Race: The White Guilt Messiah Complex, Democrats, and Black Victims features many of the false alarms and much of the race-baiting that Democrats have used over the years, and the ways they continue to do so even now. The book shows that this is to create and maintain an atmosphere of racial hysteria and panic in the country. They may even be happy with a race war.

La trayectoria de Rodrigo de Rato fue paralela a la de la propia economía española. Ascendió con ella hasta lo más alto, incluida la entrada de España en el euro, y cayó sacudido por la crisis mundial que se desató a finales de la década del 2000, que puso en peligro la supervivencia de la moneda única y transformó el sistema financiero mundial y español.
