  Where is the driving force for change? Who envisions a better future, crafts the path to democracy, and strategizes the movement? Who fuels it with revolutionary zeal and the will to power? And where is the force that can fulfill the unfinished promise of Iran's Constitutional Revolution? In three words: The Iranian Citizenry. Thirty years before Iran's Constitutional Revolution, the treatise One Word (Yek Kalameh) ignited a movement, challenging absolute monarchy, advocating the rule of law, and empowering the people. Now, Two, Three Words (Do, Se Kalameh) draws inspiration from the courageous youth of Iran. It articulates their aspirations, forges a new discourse, and unites a narrative that could pave the way for democratic alternatives. 
  Aram Hessami is a professor of Political Science and Philosophy at Montgomery College in Rockville, Maryland. His research and publications focus on Democratic Transition, Discourse Theory, and Social Change. He received his BA, MA, and Doctorate in Political Science & Philosophy from The George Washington University in 1993.

  German women played an essential role in the Nazi movement that outweighed the Nazi Party's propaganda that a woman's position was solely in the home as mothers and child-bearers. Thirteen million of the projected forty million German women in the Reich were active in Nazi Party organizations that promoted the regime's goals of racial purity, imperial conquest, and global war. The Nazi party was about as male-centered as any political party in history. Its ideas on women and women's rightful responsibilities in society were novel and, at best, radical. Despite this, the Party received widespread and active support among women in Germany at the time.This book investigates Magda Goebbels, Leni Riefenstahl, and Winifried Wagner and how they became enchanted by Hitler and obliged [his] Nazi philosophy. These three ladies were not ordinary Germans. Magda was hitched to Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Enlightenment and Propaganda and perhaps the most influential man of the Third Reich. An entertainer and famous movie chief, Leni was liable for a key publicity film. Winifred was hitched to author Richard Wagner's child and assumed responsibility for Wagner's inheritance. Hitler was captivated by every one of the women and used them to add his longing to reestablish Germany to its past brilliance. The women concurred with Hitler's longing to renew Germany's significance and perceived that once he became Chancellor, they would benefit enormously. These women didn't act as indicated by the standards of the times. They got out of the endorsed jobs relegated to ladies.

  Analytic Philosophy - Logic and...

  The historical context and influences of Analytic Philosophy can be traced through several key developments and intellectual movements that shaped its emergence and evolution. 
  In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the philosophical landscape was marked by significant shifts. The decline of Idealism, which had dominated the late 19th century, created a fertile ground for new approaches. The Idealist focus on metaphysical speculation and abstract notions of reality began to be challenged by a rising emphasis on scientific and empirical methods. 
  Central to the rise of Analytic Philosophy was the development of formal logic. Gottlob Frege, in the late 19th century, revolutionized logic with his introduction of predicate logic, laying a foundational framework that would deeply influence subsequent philosophers. His work aimed to clarify the logical structure of language and mathematics, setting the stage for a new approach to philosophical problems. 
  The early 20th century saw the emergence of Logical Positivism, a movement spearheaded by the Vienna Circle, which included philosophers such as Moritz Schlick, Rudolf Carnap, and A.J. Ayer. This movement sought to apply the methods of formal logic and empirical science to philosophical problems, rejecting metaphysical claims as meaningless. The Logical Positivists aimed to develop a philosophy that was both scientifically rigorous and free from speculative metaphysics.
