Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Union; Past, Present, and Future: A Speech Delivered by Hon. W. W. Eaton, at City Hall, Hartford, on Saturday Evening, March 3d, 1860 "Better rule in hell, Than serve in heaven." The present is a crisis in the history of our government, an important crisis, great for good or evil. I am informed, I presume correctly, that Mr. Cassius M. Clay while speaking in this city a few evenings since, said: "That if the Democrats carried the State Connecticut this Spring, there was the end of the Presidential controversy." And further, "That if the Democracy were successful in the next Presidential canvass, a general insurrection at the South would be the result." Before I pass upon this question, if I may be allowed a parliamentary remark, I move to divide it. With Mr. Clay, I believe if the National Democracy of our State are successful in this opening fight, that the back-bone of "John Brown Republicanism" will be broken, and in the greater battle for the Presidency, the motley crew who rally upon sectional issues, will be scattered before the legions of the Democracy, like chaft before the wind. That the success of the Democratic party in the Presidential election, will cause insurrection at the South, is to me quite a new idea, and I doubt not was to the hearers of Mr. Clay. It therefore has one merit, it is original; and if Mr. Clay will speedily file his caveat in the office of Commissioner of Patents, I presume the first "Brown Republican" who is placed at the head of that branch of public service, will issue a patent for the full term of fourteen years, with liberty to extend, ad infinitum. But the crisis is a momentous one, the public mind is thoroughly aroused to its importance, and a feeling has obtained throughout our broad country, that for "weal or woe" the acts of the people in the ensuing elections will determine the destiny of this confederacy of sovereign states, and either greatly strengthen the bonds which bind them together, or render them yet weaker than they now confessedly are. I say to you, Freemen of Connecticut, that the time has arrived when every man who reveres the Constitution, and would fulfil all its obligations, who loves the Union of the States and would perpetuate it to the latest time, is imperatively called upon to use Ins exertions for the best interests of country. All little differences of opinion must be laid aside, all individual interests and passions must be forgotten, and all the intelligence and all the strength of the National men of Connectient must be joined in one common and energetic effort to avert the calamities which hang like a pall over our loved land.

Book Synopsis Beaten Down, Worked Up by : Steven Greenhouse
Download or read book Beaten Down, Worked Up written by Steven Greenhouse and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A page-turning book that spans a century of worker strikes.... Engrossing, character-driven, panoramic.” —The New York Times Book Review We live in an era of soaring corporate profits and anemic wage gains, one in which low-paid jobs and blighted blue-collar communities have become a common feature of our nation’s landscape. Behind these trends lies a little-discussed problem: the decades-long decline in worker power. Award-winning journalist and author Steven Greenhouse guides us through the key episodes and trends in history that are essential to understanding some of our nation’s most pressing problems, including increased income inequality, declining social mobility, and the concentration of political power in the hands of the wealthy few. He exposes the modern labor landscape with the stories of dozens of American workers, from GM employees to Uber drivers to underpaid schoolteachers. Their fight to take power back is crucial for America’s future, and Greenhouse proposes concrete, feasible ways in which workers’ collective power can be—and is being—rekindled and reimagined in the twenty-first century. Beaten Down, Worked Up is a stirring and essential look at labor in America, poised as it is between the tumultuous struggles of the past and the vital, hopeful struggles ahead.

Book excerpt: This book offers the detailed historical background required for a holistic appreciation of current problems faced and the possibilities for revitalisation. In two volumes it provides introductory overviews of trade union development since the end of World War II in 26 countries from every corner of the globe. Each chapter explains the main contours of trade union growth and development in one country from the pivotal year 1945 to the present. Each chapter assesses the often dynamic expansion of trade unionism in the 1950s and 1960s; the role of trade unionism in the movements for national liberation in the Global South and the erection of social welfare systems in the developed North; the economic shocks that resulted in membership decline and loss of political influence from the late 1970s onward; the economic restructuring and growing labour market diversity of the 1980s and 1990s that undercut the traditional bases of trade union membership; and the historical roots of the contemporary political and economic context in which revitalisation efforts are taking place.

This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a request from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the committee studied a range of issues to help identify what strategies the Department of Defense might follow to meet its need for flexible, rapidly deployable communications systems.

In addition to advising DARPA on where its investment in information technology for mobile wireless communications systems can have the greatest impact, the book explores the evolution of wireless technology, the often fruitful synergy between commercial and military research and development efforts, and the technical challenges still to be overcome in making the dream of "anytime, anywhere" communications a reality.
Book Synopsis How Global Currencies Work by : Barry Eichengreen
Download or read book How Global Currencies Work written by Barry Eichengreen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful new understanding of global currency trends, including the rise of the Chinese yuan At first glance, the history of the modern global economy seems to support the long-held view that the currency of the world’s leading power invariably dominates international trade and finance. But in How Global Currencies Work, three noted economists overturn this conventional wisdom. Offering a new history of global finance over the past two centuries and marshaling extensive new data to test current theories of how global currencies work, the authors show that several national monies can share international currency status—and that their importance can change rapidly. They demonstrate how changes in technology and international trade and finance have reshaped the landscape of international currencies so that several international financial standards can coexist. In fact, they show that multiple international and reserve currencies have coexisted in the past—upending the traditional view of the British pound’s dominance before 1945 and the U.S. dollar’s postwar dominance. Looking forward, the book tackles the implications of this new framework for major questions facing the future of the international monetary system, including how increased currency competition might affect global financial stability.
