Book Synopsis American Dynasty by : Kevin Phillips
Download or read book American Dynasty written by Kevin Phillips and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-09-30 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An acerbic, withering account of the ascent of the Bush family to the pinnacle of the American political and social elite and the implications of the dynasty's hold on power for democracy in America. With an unerring instinct for fakery and humbug,Phillips traces the convoluted trail of Bush mendacity through three generations. The picture he paints of a family willing to do ANYTHING to hold power and a country so craven as to vote for it is both very funny and completely dismaying in equal measure.

Book Synopsis America's Political Dynasties by : Stephen Hess
Download or read book America's Political Dynasties written by Stephen Hess and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 30th anniversary edition of a book that was hailed on publication in 1966 as "fascinating" by Margaret L. Coit in the Saturday Review and as "masterly" by Henry F. Graff in the New York Times Book Review.The Constitution could not be more specific: "No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States." Yet, in over two centuries since these words were written, the American people, despite official disapproval, have chosen a political nobility. For generation after generation they have turned for leadership to certain families. They are America's political dynasties. Now, in the twentieth century, surprisingly, American political life seems to be largely peopled by those who qualify, in Stewart Alsop's phrase, as "People's Dukes." They are all around us Kennedys, Longs, Tafts, Roosevelts.Here is the panorama of America's political dynasties from colonial days to the present in fascinating profiles of sixteen of the leading families. Some, like the Roosevelts, have shown remarkable staying power. Others are all but forgotten, such as the Washburns, a family in which four sons of a bankrupt shopkeeper were elected to Congress from four different states. America's Political Dynasties investigates the roles of these families in shaping the nation and traces the whole pattern of political inheritance, which has been a little considered but unique and significant feature of American government and diplomacy. And in doing so, it also illuminates the lives and personalities of some two hundred often engaging, usually ambitious, sometimes brilliant, occasionally unscrupulous individuals.

Download or read book Dynastic America written by Henry H. Klein and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dynastic America: And Those Who Own It Lincoln warned against and that Theodore Roosevelt called the Invisible Government. It is the power of Great Wealth, lodged in the hands of the Few, wielded for their benefit and against the interest of all the people. Here for the first time is told who constitute that Great Power. Here is shown who these individuals are and of what their wealth consists. Here are shown the details of their possessions and the fact that excessive private fortunes are in the hands of second, third, fourth and fifth generations, who exerted little or no effort to obtain them. The power of the government, that is, of all the people collee tively, should be greater than that of any individual or set of men, and the only way such restoration can be accomplished is by curtailing the wealth-power of the Few. In this book, I propose that private fortunes be limited, so that the surplus or excess over a certain amount, goes to the government. In this way, the government becomes the principal stockholder and bondholder in all monopoly and draws the bulk of revenue therefrom; the cost of government is defrayed out of income on public property, the cost of living reduced, the wages of employees increased, and the interests of small stockholders and bondholders benefited. Taxation in time disappears and govern ment and business become simplified. Such is the remedy which I propose as an offset to the bolshevism and anarchy which threaten. The facts contained in this book should move all right-thinking persons in the same direction. My idea is that the constitution of the United States should be amended to limit excessive private fortunes. All things in life are limited - even the power of the President.

Download or read book Lives In Trust written by George E Marcus and published by Westview Press. This book was released on 1992-04-05 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mature dynasty is as much the sum of complex interests in the culture and production of wealth as it is the story of the prominent family at its origins. This volume examines the full range of interests in the perpetuation of a dynasty and provides a clearer picture of the long-term cultural legacies of such capitalist clans. Ultimately, Marcus and Hall address the question of what makes diversely involved and situated descendants adhere to their ancestral code of family authority, and their answers are fully informed by an understanding of the more complex organization of dynastic culture and wealth. A family story in itself cannot encompass the workings of a mature fortune, because the power and roles of descendants are so often subordinated to the institutional legacies and myths of celebrity that engulf them.

Book Synopsis A Dynastic History of Iran by : Mehran Kamrava
Download or read book A Dynastic History of Iran written by Mehran Kamrava and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich dynastic study examines the political histories of Iran's last two monarchical dynasties, the Qajars and the Pahlavis. Tracing the rise and fall of both dynasties, Mehran Kamrava addresses essential questions about how and why they rose to power; what domestic and international forces impacted them; how they ruled; and how they met their end. Exploring over two hundred years of political history, Kamrava's comprehensive yet concise account places developments within relevant frameworks in an accessible manner. With detailed examinations of Iran's history, politics, and economics, he interrogates the complexities of dynastic rule in Iran and considers its enduring legacy. Developing innovative interpretations and utilizing original primary sources, this book illuminates the impact of the monarchy's rule and ultimate collapse on Iranian history, as well as Iran's subsequent politics and revolution.
