Anger Your way to a happier you

humphrey cooper

Summary

Anger is part of the body's "fight, flight, or freeze" response system, which helps us defend ourselves against threats or danger.
On the other hand, unresolved anger can be detrimental to one's health.
When we identify anger as a result of something wrong with us, we tend to want to repress it rather than deal with it.
To repress and deny it, that use of anger often leads us to express it in dangerous ways to ourselves and others.
Consider how many times you've read in the news about serial killers and how others who have known them have described them. "He was always such a nice person," is a common way they are described. He never raised his voice, as far as I could tell. He never appeared to be upset with anyone."
Anger is almost always justified in the minds of angry people and the social judgment of anger has real-world consequences for the person who is angry.
Marriages have been destroyed, jobs have been lost, lives have been lost and other unfortunate incidents as a result by uncontrolled anger.
While аngеr саn undeniably bе аbusеd, it is mоrе thаn a simple destructive force.
Anger is also a critical component of what might be referred to as self-preservation and self-defense instincts.
People who are incapable of becoming enraged are also incapable of standing up for themselves. It is therefore critical that people learn how to express anger appropriately.
This book was written with the sole purpose of taking you from a place of inappropriate use of your anger to regaining control and living a more productive and happy life starting today.

The Neoliberal Revolution - How...

Arlo Holders

Neoliberalism is a term widely used to describe a set of economic policies and ideas that emphasize the importance of free markets, deregulation, privatization, and limited government intervention. Emerging in the mid-20th century, neoliberalism represented a distinct shift away from the welfare state and Keynesian economics, which had dominated Western economies in the post-World War II era. At its core, neoliberalism advocates for the belief that markets, if left to operate freely, will create wealth, drive economic growth, and improve human well-being. This chapter introduces the key tenets of neoliberal thought and traces its rise to prominence.
The intellectual origins of neoliberalism can be traced back to economists and thinkers such as Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, and Ludwig von Mises, who were critical of state intervention in the economy. They argued that government efforts to regulate markets, redistribute wealth, and promote social welfare were inefficient and counterproductive. Instead, they believed that economic freedom, unencumbered by regulation or state control, would lead to more prosperous societies. These ideas gained traction in the 1970s when the world was facing economic stagnation, inflation, and high unemployment, a period often referred to as the “stagflation” crisis.
As a response to these challenges, neoliberalism became the intellectual and policy framework that justified sweeping changes in global economic practices. It was championed by leaders such as British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and U.S. President Ronald Reagan, who implemented reforms based on neoliberal principles. These included reducing taxes, privatizing state-owned industries, cutting social welfare programs, and embracing global free trade. The goal was to increase individual freedom and market efficiency by minimizing the role of the state in economic affairs.
