Summary

"Third Parties Influence" explores the often-overlooked impact of third parties on U.S. elections and political discourse. While the American political landscape is dominated by a two-party system, this book argues that third parties act as crucial catalysts for political change. They introduce new ideas, shift major party platforms, and mobilize previously disengaged voters. Historically, third parties have demonstrably altered election outcomes and policy debates, challenging conventional narratives. The book examines the historical evolution of third parties, their mechanisms of influence, and specific instances where they've altered election outcomes. By drawing upon historical election data, campaign finance records, and political science theories, the book provides a nuanced understanding of American political dynamics. It traces the origins and evolution of third parties from the early republic to the present day. The book analyzes how third parties influence major party policy platforms, act as "spoilers" in elections, and the impact of specific third-party movements on the political climate.

“The Mendacity of Hope should help wake up all those Obama-voters who've been napping while the wars escalate, the recession deepens, and the environment goes straight to hell.” —Barbara Ehrenreich

Carbon Technocracy - Energy...

Victor Seow

A forceful reckoning with the relationship between energy and power through the history of what was once East Asia’s largest coal mine.

The coal-mining town of Fushun in China’s Northeast is home to a monstrous open pit. First excavated in the early twentieth century, this pit grew like a widening maw over the ensuing decades, as various Chinese and Japanese states endeavored to unearth Fushun’s purportedly “inexhaustible” carbon resources. Today, the depleted mine that remains is a wondrous and terrifying monument to fantasies of a fossil-fueled future and the technologies mobilized in attempts to turn those developmentalist dreams into reality.

In Carbon Technocracy, Victor Seow uses the remarkable story of the Fushun colliery to chart how the fossil fuel economy emerged in tandem with the rise of the modern technocratic state. Taking coal as an essential feedstock of national wealth and power, Chinese and Japanese bureaucrats, engineers, and industrialists deployed new technologies like open-pit mining and hydraulic stowage in pursuit of intensive energy extraction. But as much as these mine operators idealized the might of fossil fuel–driven machines, their extractive efforts nevertheless relied heavily on the human labor that those devices were expected to displace. Under the carbon energy regime, countless workers here and elsewhere would be subjected to invasive techniques of labor control, ever-escalating output targets, and the dangers of an increasingly exploited earth.

Although Fushun is no longer the coal capital it once was, the pattern of aggressive fossil-fueled development that led to its ascent endures. As we confront a planetary crisis precipitated by our extravagant consumption of carbon, it holds urgent lessons. This is a groundbreaking exploration of how the mutual production of energy and power came to define industrial modernity and the wider world that carbon made.

Fear and Trembling - By Søren...

Søren Kierkegaard

"Fear and Trembling" is a philosophical work by Søren Kierkegaard that explores faith through the lens of Abraham's near sacrifice of Isaac. The title itself comes from a Bible verse about approaching God with both reverence and apprehension. Kierkegaard delves into the paradox of Abraham's situation: being commanded by God to do something morally horrific yet acting with complete faith. It's a meditation on the nature of faith, obedience, and the boundaries of human understanding.
