Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plague and Peril of Monopoly: A Lecture on Labor, Laborers, and Employes, Delivered, in Lynn, Salem, Haverhill, and Georgetown, Mass;, In the Autumn of 1882 No sadder sight is ever seen than a working man, or working woman, able, willing, and obliged to work or to starve, 'and yet starving - and perhaps children with them - for want of work to do. And when we know how often great numbers are in that condition, the spectacle becomes sadder still. And when we remember that our resources are ample to feed and clothe all the peoples of the Western Hemisphere, what can we say of such a spectacle? Our country seems some sleeping giant, pillowing his head on almost the Arctic snows; his feet nestling amid the ever-blooming flowers of the sunny South, and grasping in his left hand the rising, and in his right the setting, sun; and capable of producing and diffusing plenty, prosperity, and felicity to unnumbered millions of human beings!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parker Pillsbury--one of the most important and least examined antislavery activists of the nineteenth century--was a man of intense contradictions. Was he a disruptive eccentric who lashed out at authority (proclaiming Lincoln the worst president in the nation's history) or a sensitive visionary committed to social justice? In the first full-length biography of this remarkable American, Stacey M. Robertson depicts a man who became a leading voice in the antebellum period. Crisscrossing the North for twenty-five years, Pillsbury denounced slavery to all who would listen. In his travels, he often endured the violent rage of mob opposition, but he also received the passionate support of fellow advocates. Robertson's vivid portrayal of this itinerant agitator revises standard views of the antislavery movement by highlighting the interplay between activists such as Pillsbury and the national leadership, which they often challenged. She also reveals how Pillsbury--one of the nation's first male feminists--struggled to reject the notion of male dominance in his political philosophy, public activism, and personal relationships.The biography of a man devoted to justice and equality, this book places his motivations and experiences in the context of nineteenth-century social reform but never strays far from Pillsbury himself. His voice--irascible and fiery, whimsical and compassionate--offers a vivid reminder that history is the story of individual lives.

Book excerpt: Perils of Wisdom is a compilation of wise and witty maxims, spanning the gamut from Philosophy, Religion, Politics, Education, and Success, to Friendship, Love, Marriage, Ambition, Money, and Old Age. It is a delightfully perspicacious panorama of aphoristic insights by Thomas William on all aspects of life that will make you smile at their clever genius and exclaim, “How true!” You can turn to any page and enjoy these polished gems of encapsulated acumen. These are the observations of a man who has “been there, done that, got the T-shirt.” With this volume, Dr. William joins the ranks of Oscar Wilde and Ambrose Bierce. Truly, a book for every library, coffee table, and night stand—and certainly for every mind.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Monopoly: A Study of a Grave Danger, and of the Natural Mode, of Averting It This little work gives permanent form to a course of lectures recently delivered in Cooper Union, New York. They were given in an off-hand way and stenographically reported; and they are now published with a minimum of revision. The considerate reader will, as I hope, take the book for what it is, in view of the manner of its preparation and its general purpose. That purpose is merely to apply to important problems economic principles which have recently become known. The industrial system which developed under a regime of freedom and competition has become perverted by the presence of monopoly; and the thing to be accomplished is not to revolutionize the system by the method of state socialism, nor yet to cause it to reverse its natural development by resolving the great corporations which now dominate it into their constituent elements, as crude antitrust legislation would try to do, but rather to retain the corporations for their efficiency while taking from them their power of oppression. Nature has shown us how to accomplish this, by revealing forces which now partly accomplish it, though without some action by the state they do their work imperfectly.

Download or read book Yellow Perils written by Franck Billé and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2018-07-31 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China’s meteoric rise and ever expanding economic and cultural footprint have been accompanied by widespread global disquiet. Whether admiring or alarmist, media discourse and representations of China often tap into the myths and prejudices that emerged through specific historical encounters. These deeply embedded anxieties have shown great resilience, as in recent media treatments of SARS and the H5N1 virus, which echoed past beliefs connecting China and disease. Popular perceptions of Asia, too, continue to be framed by entrenched racial stereotypes: its people are unfathomable, exploitative, cunning, or excessively hardworking. This interdisciplinary collection of original essays offers a broad view of the mechanics that underlie Yellow Peril discourse by looking at its cultural deployment and repercussions worldwide. Building on the richly detailed historical studies already published in the context of the United States and Europe, contributors to Yellow Perils confront the phenomenon in Italy, Australia, South Africa, Nigeria, Mongolia, Hong Kong, and China itself. With chapters based on archival material and interviews, the collection supplements and often challenges superficial journalistic accounts and top-down studies by economists and political scientists. Yellow Peril narratives, contributors find, constitute cultural vectors of multiple kinds of anxieties, spanning the cultural, racial, political, and economic. Indeed, the emergence of the term “Yellow Peril” in such disparate contexts cannot be assumed to be singular, to refer to the same fears, or to revolve around the same stereotypes. The discourse, even when used in reference to a single country like China, is therefore inherently fractured and multiple. The term “Yellow Peril” may feel unpalatable and dated today, but the ethnographic, geographic, and historical breadth of this collection—experiences of Chinese migration and diaspora, historical reflections on the discourse of the Yellow Peril in China, and contemporary analyses of the global reverberations of China’s economic rise—offers a unique overview of the ways in which anti-Chinese narratives continue to play out in today’s world. This timely and provocative book will appeal to Chinese and Asian Studies scholars, but will also be highly relevant to historians and anthropologists working on diasporic communities and on ethnic formations both within and beyond Asia.
