Sinopse

"Money In Politics" provides a comprehensive exploration of campaign finance, revealing how political donations shape elections and influence policy decisions. The book examines campaign finance regulations at various levels, uncovering the mechanics of funding sources, spending limits, and disclosure requirements. It investigates the documented effects of these laws on electoral outcomes and public trust, highlighting the critical role of campaign funding in determining who runs for office and what issues gain priority.

 
The book traces the evolution of campaign finance laws in the United States, from early regulatory attempts to landmark Supreme Court decisions. It argues that while regulations aim for fairness and transparency, they often fall short and can even exacerbate inequalities.

 
Chapters analyze the impact of money on candidate selection, voter turnout, and legislative outcomes, also evaluating reform proposals like public financing and increased disclosure.

 
Drawing from Federal Election Commission data, academic studies, and investigative journalism, "Money In Politics" offers a fresh perspective on the assumptions underlying campaign finance regulations and their unintended consequences. It connects economics, sociology, and communication studies to provide a holistic understanding, presenting information in an accessible style for students, journalists, and engaged citizens.

 
The concluding chapter explores practical implications for citizens, candidates, and policymakers, offering recommendations for navigating the current system and advocating for meaningful reform.

    Preface by Pascal Boniface.
    Why did the Euro soccer tournament follow in the footsteps of European integration? What confrontations are impossible between certain countries, such as those between Russia and Ukraine, or Armenia and Azerbaijan? Which matches have gone beyond sporting stakes to become geopolitical “wars”? Or, conversely, how can soccer be a tool of emancipation for peoples? Or even play a part in the political strategies of countries such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar as they seek to improve their image in the eyes of the world? 
    In a pleasant and precise style, the author tells us 22 stories in which the round ball found itself at the heart of international relations. He shows us that geopolitics is neither boring nor reserved for seasoned diplomats, and that soccer can go beyond the pitch.

    Russia's 2022 attack on Ukraine saw confrontation between Moscow and the West spill over into open conflict once again. But Russia has also been waging a clandestine war against the West for decades. Hostile acts abroad, from poisoning dissidents to shooting down airliners, interfering in elections, spying, hacking, and murdering, have long seemed to be the Kremlin's daily business. But what is it all for? Why does Russia consistently behave like this? And what does it achieve? 
     
     
     
    In this book, Keir Giles explains how and why Russia pushes for more power and influence wherever it can reach, far beyond Ukraine—and what it means not just for governments, but for ordinary people. Bringing together stories from the military, politics, diplomacy, espionage, cyber power, organized crime, and more, Giles describes how Moscow conducts its campaigns across the globe, and how nobody is too unimportant to be caught up in them. By lifting the lid on the daily struggle going on behind the scenes to protect governments, businesses, societies, and people from Russian hostile activity, Russia's War On Everybody shows how Moscow's hostile intentions for the rest of the world are far broader and more ambitious, and the ways it tries to achieve them far more pervasive and damaging, than we realize.
