  The Invented State - Policy...

  In The Invented State, Emily Thorson argues that a problematic and understudied aspect of political misinformation reflects widespread public misperception about what the government does. Because much of public policy is invisible to the public, there is fertile ground for false beliefs to flourish, leading to what Thorson terms the "invented state": systematic misperceptions about public policy. However, people get the facts wrong not because they are stupid or blinded by partisan loyalty. Misperceptions are created when three conditions are met: when citizens have incomplete information about an issue, when their own biases color their understanding of it, and when they feel that the issue is important. The invented state is created by exposure to misinformation and by individuals' cognitive errors. 
   
   
   
  Correcting these policy misperceptions is highly effective at reducing false beliefs. Providing people with corrective information has downstream effects on attitudes. When they learn how policies really work, their approval increases and they also shift their policy priorities. Contrary to pundits' assumptions of a public who is largely indifferent to policy, there is a deep public desire to learn basic facts about how the government works. Thorson meets that desire with analysis on how the media can identify and correct substantive policy misperceptions.

  The Egyptian Book of the Dead -...

  The Egyptian Book of the Dead is one of the most significant and enigmatic works of ancient Egyptian literature. It is a collection of funerary texts that were intended to guide the soul of the deceased through the afterlife. The texts were not a single work but rather a compilation of spells, hymns, and prayers, which were tailored to ensure a safe passage to the afterlife and to grant protection in the realm of the dead. The Book of the Dead, also known as the "Book of Going Forth by Day," was typically inscribed on papyrus and placed in the tombs of the deceased, often alongside various amulets and offerings to aid the soul's journey. 
  The origins of the Book of the Dead can be traced back to the Pyramid Texts and Coffin Texts of the Old Kingdom, which were intended for royal burials. Over time, these texts evolved into the more accessible and expansive collection found in the New Kingdom, where it was available for individuals from all social classes. The Book of the Dead represents an essential aspect of ancient Egyptian religion, providing a vivid description of the journey the soul would undergo after death. It was believed that through the proper recitation and understanding of these texts, the deceased could navigate the trials of the underworld, known as Duat, and ultimately reach the afterlife in the presence of the gods. 
  The role of the Book of the Dead in Egyptian religion was deeply intertwined with the belief in Ma’at, the concept of divine order, truth, and justice. The texts emphasized the importance of the deceased’s heart being weighed in the Hall of Ma’at, where it would be measured against the feather of Ma’at to determine whether the soul was worthy of entering the eternal paradise. This idea of judgment after death is a central theme throughout the Book of the Dead and reflects the profound importance of moral conduct and the balance of cosmic forces in Egyptian thought.

  The Chinese Great Leap Forward...

  The origins of the Great Leap Forward are deeply rooted in the political ambition and ideological vision of Mao Zedong, the founding leader of the People’s Republic of China. Following the success of the Communist revolution in 1949, Mao sought not only to rebuild a war-torn nation but to rapidly transform it into a socialist utopia capable of rivaling the industrial powers of the West. By the mid-1950s, China had already launched its First Five-Year Plan, modeled after the Soviet approach to centralized economic planning. Encouraged by early gains in heavy industry, Mao envisioned a second phase of development that would leap over traditional stages of economic growth. 
  At the heart of this vision was a push for mass mobilization. Mao believed that the sheer size of China's population could be harnessed as a revolutionary force capable of achieving miraculous feats. The Great Leap Forward, initiated in 1958, was designed to propel China into a modern communist society by emphasizing agricultural collectivization and rural industrialization simultaneously. Rather than relying on expert knowledge or slow-paced industrial planning, Mao favored decentralized enthusiasm and ideological commitment, trusting that the collective will of the people would overcome any technical limitations. 
  One of the most radical elements of this plan was the establishment of people’s communes, which replaced the traditional family unit and private farming with large-scale collective labor. Households were merged into communes comprising thousands of individuals, who would eat, sleep, and work under strict communal arrangements. The idea was to increase efficiency and free up labor for industrial production, especially in rural areas where backyard furnaces were set up to produce steel. This was accompanied by an aggressive campaign to eliminate what were seen as capitalist tendencies, including private plots and individual incentives.
