Summary

In "New Worlds for Old: A Plain Account of Modern Socialism," H. G. Wells offers a compelling exploration of socialism through a distinctly accessible lens. Written during the early 20th century, a time marked by rapid industrialization and social upheaval, Wells employs a blend of visionary prose and pragmatic analysis to articulate a progressive vision for society. His literary style is characterized by clarity and directness, effectively demystifying complex economic theories while engaging in a thoughtful critique of contemporary social injustices. This work serves not only as a manifesto for socialist ideals but also as a pivotal reflection on the possibilities of human progress through cooperative societal structures. H. G. Wells, a prolific writer and social commentator, was deeply influenced by the social and economic challenges of his time, which included class disparity and the impact of capitalism on the working class. Often regarded as a pioneer of science fiction, Wells's broader commitment to social reform informed his writing, giving readers insight into his aspirations for a more equitable world. His personal experiences, including his own working-class roots and exposure to various socialist ideas, shaped the themes present in "New Worlds for Old." This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the foundations of modern socialism and its relevance to contemporary society.

American Political Parties - Why...

John Kenneth White, Matthew R....

American Political Parties is a core textbook on political parties in the United States that places the US party system into a framework designed around the disagreements between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. White and Kerbel argue that the two-party system in the United States began with a common agreement on the key values of freedom, individual rights, and equality of opportunity but that Hamilton and Jefferson disagreed—often vehemently—over how to translate these ideals into an acceptable form of governance. 
 
 
 
While Hamilton wanted to marry freedom to a strong, active federal government with an energetic president who would act on behalf of all citizens, Jefferson believed that freedom should be allied to local civic virtue, with governmental responsibilities placed primarily at the local level. Today, Hamiltonian nationalism finds its home in the Democratic Party, while Republicans have espoused Jeffersonian localism since 1964. Using this historical framework, American Political Parties examines a range of topics including marketing and social media, campaign finance, reforms in the presidential nominating process, political demography, and third parties. In this new edition, the authors describe four possible futures in the wake of the 2020 election and why Americans believed it was "the most important" election in their lifetimes.

Gaslighting is lying with a goal.
The motive behind the gaslighting is to make you think that you’re crazy or that your memory doesn’t work right. So you can’t trust yourself and your perceptions of reality.
