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.

A Short History of European Law...

Tamar Herzog

A Short History of European Law brings to life 2,500 years of legal history, tying current norms to the circumstances of their conception. Tamar Herzog describes how successive legal systems built upon one another, from ancient times through the European Union. Roman law formed the backbone of each configuration, though the way it was used and reshaped varied dramatically from one century and place to the next. Only by considering Continental civil law and English common law together do we see how they drew from and enriched this shared tradition.

Roman Empire The: The History...

Editors Charles River

Possibly the most important man of antiquity, and even all of history, was Julius Caesar. Alexander Hamilton, the famous American patriot, once remarked that “the greatest man who ever lived was Julius Caesar”. Such a tribute, coming from one of the Founding Fathers of the quintessential modern democracy in reference to a man who destroyed the Roman Republic, is testament to the enduring mark that Caesar left upon the world. The ultimate conqueror, statesman, dictator, visionary, and opportunist, during his time in power Caesar expanded the borders of Rome to almost twice their previous size, revolutionized the infrastructure of the Roman state, and destroyed the Roman Republic for good, leaving a line of emperors in its place. His legacy is so strong that his name has become, in many languages, synonymous with power: the Emperors of Austria and Germany bore the title Kaiser, and the Czars of Russia also owe the etymology of their title to Caesar. His name also crept further eastward out of Europe, even cropping up in Hindi and Urdu, where the term for “Emperor” is Kaisar. 
Even in his time, Caesar was in many ways larger than life, and because of his legacy as virtual founder of the Roman Empire, much of what was written about – and by – him during his life and immediately after his assassination was politically motivated. His successor, Octavian Augustus, had a strong interest in ensuring that Caesar’s life be painted in a favorable light, while Caesar’s political enemies attempted to paint him as a corrupt, undemocratic dictator who was destroying the old order of the Republic.  
As Roman leaders vied with each other for power and constantly fought civil wars, Rome’s famous roads fall into disrepair, the economy was crippled, the continent-wide trade system that had flourished in the previous years was replaced with a basic barter system, and there was a reduction in international trade.
