  The Populist Temptation -...

  In The Populist Temptation, the eminent economic historian Barry Eichengreen focuses on the global resurgence of populism today and places it in a deep context. Alternating between the present and earlier populist waves from modern history, he argues that populists tend to thrive most in the wake of economic downturns, when it is easy to convince the masses of elite malfeasance. Yet while there is more than a grain of truth that bankers, financiers, and "bought" politicians are responsible for the mess, populists' own solutions tend to be simplistic and economically counterproductive. There is no one solution to addressing the concerns that populists raise, but Eichengreen argues that there is an obvious place to start: shoring up and improving the welfare state so that it is better able to act as a buffer for those who suffer most during economic slumps. For example, America's patchwork welfare state was not well equipped to deal with the economic fallout that attended globalization and the decline of manufacturing in America, and that played no small part in Trump's victory. Lucidly explaining both the appeals and dangers of populism across history, this book is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand not just the populist phenomenon, but more generally the lasting political fallout that follows in the wake of major economic crises.

By the end of the book, you will be well prepared to navigate the world of mediation, and may even learn a thing or two about resolving your own conflicts! 
  PRAISE FROM MEDIATION STUDENTS 
  Dr. Neil Katz (Nova Southeastern University, Maxwell School of Syracuse University) has been assigning The Mediator’s Approach to his graduate-level mediation students since the Spring of 2022. Here’s a sample of what his students had to say: 
  “This really is a fabulous little book. I really enjoyed reading it – I initially got the Kindle version, but I have subsequently ordered an actual version so I can refer to it more easily and share with others. I almost wish I had read it before taking the course, and again at the conclusion.” 
  “Tara West’s book puts what were to me initially intimidating topics in a very relatable and easily digestible format. It helped me to process at a high level the various techniques and strategies mediators take in the various approaches that we studied throughout the semester.”
