Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by G. K. Chesterton was originally published in 1916. Gilbert Keith Chesterton was born in London in 1874. He studied at the Slade School of Art, and upon graduating began to work as a freelance journalist. Over the course of his life, his literary output was incredibly diverse and highly prolific, ranging from philosophy and ontology to art criticism and detective fiction. However, he is probably best-remembered for his Christian apologetics, most notably in Orthodoxy (1908) and The Everlasting Man (1925). We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book excerpt: On this question of divorce I do not profess to be impartial, for I have never perceived any intelligent meaning in the word. I merely (and most modestly) profess to be right. I also profess to be representative: that is, democratic. Now, one may believe in democracy or disbelieve in it. It would be grossly unfair to conceal the fact that there are difficulties on both sides. The difficulty of believing in democracy is that it is so hard to believe-like God and most other good things. The difficulty of disbelieving in democracy is that there is nothing else to believe in. I mean there is nothing else on earth or in earthly politics. Unless an aristocracy is selected by gods, it must be selected by men. It may be negatively and passively permitted, but either heaven or humanity must permit it; otherwise it has no more moral authority than a lucky pickpocket. It is baby talk to talk about "Supermen" or "Nature's Aristocracy" or "The Wise Few." "The Wise Few" must be either those whom others think wise-who are often fools; or those who think themselves wise-who are always fools.Well, if one happens to believe in democracy as I do, as a large trust in the active and passive judgment of the human conscience, one can have no hesitation, no "impartiality," about one's view of divorce; and especially about one's view of the extension of divorce among the democracy. A democrat in any sense must regard that extension as the last and vilest of the insults offered by the modern rich to the modern poor. The rich do largely believe in divorce; the poor do mainly believe in fidelity. But the modern rich are powerful and the modern poor are powerless. Therefore for years and decades past the rich have been preaching their own virtues. Now that they have begun to preach their vices too, I think it is time to kick.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abortion, divorce, and the family: how did the state make policy decisions in these areas in Argentina, Brazil, and Chile during the last third of the twentieth century? As the three countries transitioned from democratic to authoritarian forms of government (and back), they confronted challenges posed by the rise of the feminist movement, social changes, and the power of the Catholic Church. The results were often surprising: women's rights were expanded under military dictatorships, divorce was legalized in authoritarian Brazil but not in democratic Chile, and no Latin American country changed its laws on abortion. Sex and the State explores these patterns of gender-related policy reform and shows how they mattered for the peoples of Latin America and for a broader understanding of the logic behind the state's role in shaping private lives and gender relations everywhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book examines feminist divorce reformers, their relationship with the broader feminist movement, and their lasting effects on the American social welfare regime. It shows how the two distinctive qualities of the American welfare state-its gendered nature and its public/private nature-combined to encourage the breadwinner-homemaker model of marriage's use as policy tool. The linking of access to economic benefits to marriage, begun early in the development of the American social insurance system, shaped political identity and activism in the 1970s and has continued to do so into our current political moment. The result has not only affected policy questions directly relating to marriage but also limited the possibilities for expanding America's social welfare provisions. As a gateway to full economic citizenship, marriage has always served as an institution that protects and perpetuates class privilege"--

Book excerpt: THIRD EDITION Is the United States facing a societal "divorce"? Roughly two thirds of Americans believe another civil war could occur in today's political climate. And it is easy to understand why. Three impeachments in the last four presidencies. A weak US presidency. A partisan divide perhaps greater than that of the 1860s. With perhaps impeccable timing, this Wall Street Journal best-selling author contemplates an exit strategy for what has become a broken democracy. From the benign to the revolutionary, this provocative book moves beyond the question of "why" to the more important question of "how" the United States can move beyond the political and cultural dysfunction that has divided the country to the point of democratic paralysis. Is America inherently racist? Or has academia been complicit in brainwashing millions of Americans into believing the United States should only be judged from the context of guilt and privilege? Do the "Democrat Socialists" really care about blue-collar workers; or are today's leftist elites secretly pursuing a socialist/globalist utopia? Arguing the emergence of political actors like Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders is no democratic accident, this anonymous author contemplates the pros and cons of taking America to the brink to defeat a stealth cancer that hides behind the slogans of social justice, tolerance, and equity. Borrowing from leftist radicals like Alinsky and Marx, this book provides a mass-movement roadmap to those Black, Brown, and White Americans who desperately hope to move beyond the false allure of identity politics and cancel culture. From contemplating whether a new Republican Party can break today's political gridlock...to openly discussing the radical idea of a geographical breakup of the United States of America, An American Divorce seeks to chart a new course for a country in great peril. In what could best be described as the ultimate game of revolutionary poker, this author boldly goes beyond the sweeping arc of political correctness to tackle questions that are rarely debated in academia or the mainstream media: Can a revitalized pro-America, pro-worker, pro-business, and anti-swamp Republican Party have the power to break the partisan gridlock in Washington D.C.? What possible mass-movement role does an ex-president Trump have in our divorce discussion? Should both Republicans and Democrats consider a constitutional convention that outlines the pros and cons of a Brexit-like, geographical breakup--to 330 million Americans? Or will both sides continue traveling down an "ugly" divorce path that could ultimately be decided by an undemocratic set of circumstances? Republicans may be surprised-but the author doesn't want to destroy everyday Democrats. Nor is this book based on the ignorant and primitive idea of dividing the United States by race. Rather, An American Divorce targets the Marxist thought police--social science academics and radical leftist agitators who use the vehicle of social justice to pursue an intellectual fantasyland that will never exist. Released as the nation is reeling from a global pandemic, political/economic uncertainty, and racial unrest, this book is a must-read for those Americans who hope to move beyond the hate, division, and dysfunction that we today call the United States of America. Controversial, provocative, and revolutionary, An American Divorce is urgent reading for our troubled times.
