  Will He Go? - Trump and the...

  In advance of the 2020 election, legal scholar Lawrence Douglas prepares readers for a less-than-peaceful transition of power. It doesn't require a strong imagination to get a sense of the mayhem Trump will unleash if he loses a closely contested election. It is no less disturbing to imagine Trump still insisting that he is the rightful leader of the nation. With millions of diehard supporters firmly believing that their revered president has been toppled by malignant forces of the Deep State, Trump could remain a force of constitutional chaos for years to come. WILL TRUMP GO? addresses such questions as:How might Trump engineer his refusal to acknowledge electoral defeat? What legal and extra-legal paths could he pursue in mobilizing a challenge to the electoral outcome?What legal, political, institutional, and popular mechanisms can be used to stop him?What would be the fallout of a failure to remove him from office? What would be the fallout of a successful effort to unseat him?Can our democracy snap back from Trump?Trump himself has essentially told the nation he will never accept electoral defeat. A book that prepares us for Trump's refusal to concede, then, is hardly speculative; it is a necessary precaution against a coming crisis.

  This introduction to cyborg theory provides a critical vantage point for analyzing the claims around emerging technologies like automation, robots, and AI. Cyborg analyzes and reframes popular and scholarly conversations about cyborgs from the perspective of feminist cyborg theory. Drawing on their combined decades of training, teaching, and research in the social sciences, design, and engineering education, Laura Forlano and Danya Glabau introduce an approach called critical cyborg literacy. Critical cyborg literacy foregrounds power dynamics and pays attention to the ways that social and cultural factors such as gender, race, and disability shape how technology is imagined, developed, used, and resisted. 
   
   
   
  Forlano and Glabau offer critical cyborg literacy as a way of thinking through questions about the relationship between humanity and technology. Cyborg examines whether modern technologies make us all cyborgs—if we consider, for instance, the fact that we use daily technologies at work, have technologies embedded into our bodies in health care applications, or use technology to critically explore possibilities as artists, designers, activists, and creators. Lastly, Cyborg offers perspectives from critical race, feminist, and disability thinkers to help chart a path forward for cyborg theory in the twenty-first century.

  "Facing America's Greatest Enemy" by Rich Germaine delves into the pervasive issue of apathy within American society, exploring its historical roots, psychological underpinnings, and extensive impact on various facets of life. The book opens with a compelling introduction that frames apathy and indifference as a silent yet formidable adversary threatening the foundations of democracy and societal progress. Germaine traces the emergence of apathy from post-revolutionary disinterest to contemporary political indifference, emphasizing how crises and prosperity alike have fostered disengagement. 
  Germaine provides historical examples, such as the rise of Nazi Germany and the low voter participation in recent U.S. elections, to underscore the dire consequences of public disengagement. 
  In the digital age, the paradox of connectivity is examined, where social media's potential to mobilize is countered by the overwhelming influx of information, leading to 'slacktivism'—a superficial form of engagement. The manuscript also addresses the role of education in combating apathy, advocating for curricula that foster critical thinking, empathy, and active citizenship. 
  Parental apathy is explored as a significant factor in children's moral and educational development, highlighting the need for active parental involvement despite modern challenges. The author also incorporates a biblical worldview, urging Christians to act against apathy through faith-driven engagement and community building. 
  Concluding with actionable steps, calling for a collective commitment to rekindle civic engagement and counter the inertia threatening American self-government. This comprehensive exploration offers a roadmap for individuals and communities to overcome apathy and foster a more involved, empathic, and active society.

  "The Coming Insurrection" is a provocative manifesto penned by the enigmatic collective known as The Invisible Committee, which surfaced in France in 2007. This radical leftist treatise diagnoses contemporary society as deeply afflicted by the malaises of capitalism, alienation, and pervasive surveillance, arguing that the fabric of modern life is leading inexorably towards societal collapse. Through a compelling blend of critical theory and urgent polemic, the manifesto calls for a comprehensive insurrection against the existing order. It champions the formation of autonomous communes, the subversion of state mechanisms, and the rejection of traditional political and social structures as pathways to liberation. The text, notorious for its incendiary tone and its advocacy for direct action, has ignited significant debate, admiration, and criticism, marking it as a seminal work in radical political thought.
