    The Bauhaus Movement is one of the most influential art and design movements of the 20th century, shaping not only the world of architecture, but also industrial design, graphic design, and education. Founded in 1919 in Weimar, Germany, the Bauhaus school represented a radical shift in the way artists and designers approached their work, bridging the gap between art and industrial production. The term "Bauhaus," which translates to "building house," symbolized the school's fundamental belief in the fusion of craftsmanship and design with new technological advances. It advocated for an integrated, functional approach to design, emphasizing simplicity, clean lines, and the use of modern materials such as steel, glass, and concrete. 
    At the heart of the Bauhaus movement was the idea of total design, an approach that sought to unify art, craft, and industry into a single cohesive whole. The Bauhaus school emphasized collaboration between artists, architects, and designers, breaking down the traditional boundaries between fine arts and applied arts. This approach was revolutionary at a time when art was still often considered a separate entity from industrial production. The school encouraged students to experiment with new techniques and materials, while maintaining a commitment to functional design that was both aesthetically pleasing and usable in the modern world. 
    One of the defining features of the Bauhaus movement was its focus on the intersection of art and technology. The early 20th century saw rapid advancements in industrial production and materials science, which gave rise to new possibilities in design. Bauhaus educators believed that the application of these new technologies should be at the core of creative work. This philosophy led to the creation of iconic pieces of modern furniture, groundbreaking architectural designs, and revolutionary typography that defined the aesthetic of the era.

    Who Governs? - Presidents Public...

    America’s model of representational government rests on the premise that elected officials respond to the opinions of citizens. This is a myth, however, not a reality, according to James N. Druckman and Lawrence R. Jacobs. In Who Governs?, Druckman and Jacobs combine existing research with novel data from US presidential archives to show that presidents make policy by largely ignoring the views of most citizens in favor of affluent and well-connected political insiders. Presidents treat the public as pliable, priming it to focus on personality traits and often ignoring it on policies that fail to become salient. Melding big debates about democratic theory with existing research on American politics and innovative use of the archives of three modern presidents—Johnson, Nixon, and Reagan—Druckman and Jacobs deploy lively and insightful analysis to show that the conventional model of representative democracy bears little resemblance to the actual practice of American politics. The authors conclude by arguing that polyarchy and the promotion of accelerated citizen mobilization and elite competition can improve democratic responsiveness. An incisive study of American politics and the flaws of representative government, this book will be warmly welcomed by readers interested in US politics, public opinion, democratic theory, and the fecklessness of American leadership and decision-making.
