Sinopse

Hawaiian Overthrow delves into the complex history of how the Kingdom of Hawaii, a sovereign nation with a rich cultural heritage, was overthrown and annexed by the United States. This book explores the confluence of economic interests, political maneuvering, and cultural clashes that led to the ousting of Queen Liliuokalani in 1893 and the subsequent formal annexation in 1898. Readers will gain insight into the strategic importance of Hawaii during a time of American expansionism, understanding how a small group of American and European businessmen prioritized their interests over Hawaiian sovereignty.

 
The narrative progresses chronologically, starting with pre-overthrow Hawaii, detailing its culture and governance. It then analyzes the rise of the sugar industry and the increasing power of American planters and culminates with the events of the overthrow, the establishment of the provisional government, and the long-term consequences of annexation.

 
The book emphasizes that the annexation was not inevitable but resulted from deliberate actions, challenging traditional narratives that portray American expansion as wholly benevolent.

    Urban land markets are crucial to the development and expansion of cities, influencing everything from economic activity to social interactions and environmental sustainability. These markets function as the mechanism through which land is bought, sold, and leased, determining how space within urban areas is utilized. Understanding urban land markets involves exploring how land use is shaped by the interplay of demand, supply, policies, and market dynamics. This chapter delves into the foundational concepts of urban land markets, their historical development, and their significance in modern urban planning. 
    The historical context of urban land markets is essential to understanding their current structure and function. In the early stages of urbanization, land was primarily a commodity for agriculture, with little concern for the complexities of modern urban needs. As cities began to grow during the industrial revolution, urban land markets evolved to accommodate increasing populations and the demand for residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. The shift from agricultural use to urban development created new challenges in managing land distribution and urban expansion. Over time, urban land markets have adapted to accommodate the changing needs of societies, from the rise of real estate development to the creation of zoning laws aimed at regulating land use. 
    Urban land markets play a significant role in shaping the growth of cities, impacting everything from infrastructure development to housing affordability. Land is a finite resource, and the decisions made within urban land markets can either promote or hinder the expansion of urban spaces. The dynamics of these markets are influenced by several factors, including population growth, economic conditions, government policies, and technological advancements.

    The definitive account of Commando: A Boer Journal of the Anglo-Boer War, published word-for-word as Reitz first wrote it in the English translation; edited and annotated by historian and Anglo-Boer War expert, Professor Fransjohan Pretorius.
    In 1899, Deneys Reitz, then aged seventeen, enlisted in the Boer army to fight the British. He had learnt to ride, shoot and swim almost as soon as he could walk. He made full use of these skills and the endurance he had acquired in the next three years of the war, during which he fought with the Boer commandos.
    He was involved in major actions, like the battle of Spioen Kop, and he interacted with prolific political and military figures of the time, such as President Paul Kruger, Boer generals Piet Joubert, Louis Botha, Koos de la Rey, Christiaan Beyers, Jan Smuts and British commander Lord Kitchener. He even met the young Winston Churchill as a prisoner-of-war in Pretoria. Reitz forged a strong personal and political friendship with General Jan Smuts after the war, built on reciprocal respect.
    Commando is more than a historical document; it is a literary masterpiece that transcends time.
    With prose that captures both the brutality and the beauty of war, Reitz weaves a narrative that resonates with authenticity and passion.
    As relevant today as when it was first penned, Commando has become a South African classic and stands as a testament to the indomitable human spirit.

    It’s halftime America! 
    Ay Yi Yai Yi! We are in the middle of The New World Order! 
    Empires rise, decline, and fall. History has witnessed this cycle with the Romans, the Ottomans, and the British. They have all toppled, and if we are not careful, the US will be the next. 
    Many of today’s enterprises are a gaggle of debt-addicted extreme financial engineering frogs floundering in tepid snake oil. Unfortunately, many will find their demise in the clutches of IP vultures. 
    If we don't play our trump cards right, the next voracious Empire - the Middle Kingdom of China - will consume us; sending their errand boys to collect bills from the US and over a hundred other countries that it has economically and digitally colonized since the Economic Tsunami of 2008, through “Belt and Road Initiative” (BRI) to its “Digital Silk Road” (DSR). 
    “Make Enterprise Great Again” digs into the foundations of capitalism and traces the ideals, triumphs and zeitgeist of the Roosevelt years in order to “Build Back Better” – and to save us from the impending Fourth Reich. 
     Yeah! It's halftime, America!
