Synopsis

In an age of rampant misinformation, Influence and Resistance explores how individuals and groups can maintain autonomy and resist persuasive manipulation. It examines propaganda's evolution, highlighting psychological vulnerabilities it exploits and how understanding resistance is crucial for informed citizenship. The book uniquely bridges social movement theory with behavioral research, offering a comprehensive view of resistance mechanisms, emphasizing that countering propaganda requires both critical thinking and collective action.

 
The book unfolds across three key sections. First, it introduces core concepts of propaganda and resistance, drawing from social psychology and communication studies. Second, it examines case studies of resistance movements, analyzing strategies and tactics employed. Finally, it synthesizes insights for practical recommendations. For instance, the book discusses how social movements frame counter-narratives and mobilize support.

 
By integrating individual psychology with social movement theory, Influence and Resistance provides a nuanced understanding of resistance. It adopts an accessible tone, making it valuable for students, activists, and policymakers, aiming to improve critical thinking and promote media literacy. The book connects to political science, sociology, and communication studies, providing a holistic understanding of propaganda, resistance, and social change.

The Political Thought of Xi Jinping

Olivia Cheung, Steve Tsang

Over the course of the last half dozen years, China's supreme leader Xi Jinping has made extraordinary changes which have profound implications not only for the Chinese people but nations throughout the world. Given how swiftly and fundamentally China's relations with the rest of the world are changing under Xi's rule, it is imperative that we know what Xi Jinping Thought is, how it evolved, and why it is so important. 
 
 
 
In The Political Thought of Xi Jinping, Steve Tsang and Olivia Cheung provide an authoritative overview of what "Xi Jinping Thought" is and is not and what it means for both China and the world. Xi, now effectively leader for life, has worked to ensure that "Xi Jinping Thought" becomes cemented as the new state ideology. Clearly inspired by the doctrine of "Mao Zedong Thought," which shaped the parameters of acceptable thinking for a quarter century, Xi wants his doctrine to define what he calls the "China Dream of national rejuvenation" and serve the pathway to its fulfillment by 2050. Drawing from original research of Xi's speeches, writings, and policies, Tsang and Cheung conceptualize Xi's vision independently from interpretations provided by the Chinese Communist Party or other sources. They further examine and explain how Xi seeks to transform this vision into reality.

Jesus in your Skin

Scott C. Lovett

The ability of the world system to conquer and divide has always been based on its efforts to try to divide groups through skewed narratives and warped beliefs. The ultimate agenda of wicked men in power is to separate people because of social class, race, and status. While groups devour one another, those in power gain control by subjecting the people through programs and ideologies that are specifically designed to cause people to bow to the very men creating the narrative. These beliefs and narratives indoctrinate the people to operate in beliefs that place them in further bondage. 
While the world system works to turn people into subjects, God searches for people who long to be set free from these bondages. His work starts inside those who seek a way of life that leads to greater freedom.  In this book, you will discover that all bondage is instigated from within. It exists within all humanity. It is beyond race, class, and society and it is the source and foundation of all evil that exists in the world. While today’s so-called relevant scientists, world governments, and global capitalists use biology and race as the key to world domination, the principles that produce the most freedom are found operating in those who acknowledge the will and purposes of the Creator. As you read this book take a journey that will illuminate your understanding and take you back to mankind’s true source of justice and liberty.
