Book Synopsis The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists by : Robert Tressell
Download or read book The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists written by Robert Tressell and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1962 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists is a classic representation of the impoverished and politically powerless underclass of British society in Edwardian England, ruthlessly exploited by the institutionalized corruption of their employers and the civic and religious authorities. Epic in scale, the novel charts the ruinous effects of the laissez-faire mercantilist ethics on the men, women, and children of the working classes, and through its emblematic characters, argues for a socialist politics as the only hope for a civilized and humane life for all. It is a timeless work whose political message is as relevant today as it was in Tressell's time. For this it has long been honoured by the Trade Union movement and thinkers across the political spectrum.
Book Synopsis What Can and Can't be Said by : Dell Upton
Download or read book What Can and Can't be Said written by Dell Upton and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An original study of monuments to the civil rights movement and African American history that have been erected in the U.S. South over the past three decades, this powerful work explores how commemorative structures have been used to assert the presence of black Americans in contemporary Southern society. The author cogently argues that these public memorials, ranging from the famous to the obscure, have emerged from, and speak directly to, the region's complex racial politics since monument builders have had to contend with widely varied interpretations of the African American past as well as a continuing presence of white supremacist attitudes and monuments."--Book jacket.

Book Synopsis Locke: Political Writings by : John Locke
Download or read book Locke: Political Writings written by John Locke and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2003-03-15 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Locke's Second Treatise of Government (c. 1681) is perhaps the key founding liberal text. A Letter Concerning Toleration, written in 1685 (a year when a Catholic monarch came to the throne of England and Louis XVI unleashed a reign of terror against Protestants in France), is a classic defense of religious freedom. Yet many of Locke's other writings--not least the Constitutions of Carolina, which he helped draft--are almost defiantly anti-liberal in outlook. This comprehensive collection brings together the main published works (excluding polemical attacks on other people's views) with the most important surviving evidence from among Locke’s papers relating to his political philosophy. David Wootton's wide-ranging and scholarly Introduction sets the writings in the context of their time, examines Locke's developing ideas and unorthodox Christianity, and analyzes his main arguments. The result is the first fully rounded picture of Locke’s political thought in his own words.
Book Synopsis The American Deep State by : Peter Dale Scott
Download or read book The American Deep State written by Peter Dale Scott and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in a new edition updated through the unprecedented 2016 presidential election, this provocative book makes a compelling case for a hidden “deep state” that influences and often opposes official U.S. policies. Prominent political analyst Peter Dale Scott begins by tracing America’s increasing militarization, restrictions on constitutional rights, and income disparity since World War II. With the start of the Cold War, he argues, the U.S. government changed immensely in both function and scope, from protecting and nurturing a relatively isolated country to assuming ever-greater responsibility for controlling world politics in the name of freedom and democracy. This has resulted in both secretive new institutions and a slow but radical change in the American state itself. He argues that central to this historic reversal were seismic national events, ranging from the assassination of President Kennedy to 9/11. Scott marshals compelling evidence that the deep state is now partly institutionalized in non-accountable intelligence agencies like the CIA and NSA, but it also extends its reach to private corporations like Booz Allen Hamilton and SAIC, to which 70 percent of intelligence budgets are outsourced. Behind these public and private institutions is the influence of Wall Street bankers and lawyers, allied with international oil companies beyond the reach of domestic law. Undoubtedly the political consensus about America’s global role has evolved, but if we want to restore the country’s traditional constitutional framework, it is important to see the role of particular cabals—such as the Project for the New American Century—and how they have repeatedly used the secret powers and network of Continuity of Government (COG) planning to implement change. Yet the author sees the deep state polarized between an establishment and a counter-establishment in a chaotic situation that may actually prove more hopeful for U.S. democracy.

Download or read book Rockefeller “Internationalist” written by Emanuel M. Josephson and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rockefeller “Internationalist”: The Man Who Misrules the World, which was first published in 1952, author Emanuel M. Josephson purports to expose the global conspiracy between the Rockefeller family and the Axis powers. Alleging that the Rockefeller Institute of Pacific Relations controlled the spy ring responsible for the attack on Pearl Harbor, the author goes to great lengths to describe the links between the Rockefellers and companies such as IG Farben, which supported Hitler’s concentration camps, as well as links between the Rockefeller family and Stalin in an effort to establish a global society. An interesting and important historical document.

Book Synopsis The Myth of Homeland Security by : Marcus Ranum
Download or read book The Myth of Homeland Security written by Marcus Ranum and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2003-10-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As I write this, I'm sitting in a restaurant in a major U.S. airport, eating my breakfast with a plastic knife and fork. I worked up quite an appetite getting here two hours early and shuffling in the block-long lines until I got to the security checkpoint where I could take off my shoes, remove my belt, and put my carry-on luggage through the screening system . "What's going on? It's homeland security. Welcome to the new age of knee-jerk security at any price. Well, I've paid, and you've paid, and we'll all keep paying-but is it going to help? Have we embarked on a massive multibillion-dollar boondoggle that's going to do nothing more than make us feel more secure? Are we paying nosebleed prices for "feel-good" measures? . "This book was painful to write. By nature, I am a problem solver. Professionally I have made my career out of solving complex problems efficiently by trying to find the right place to push hard and make a difference. Researching the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, CIA, INS, the PATRIOT Act, and so forth, one falls into a rabbit's hole of interdependent lameness and dysfunction. I came face to face with the realization that there are gigantic bureaucracies that exist primarily for the sole purpose of prolonging their existence, that the very structure of bureaucracy rewards inefficiency and encourages territorialism and turf warfare."
