Synopsis

"Spartan Social Model" examines the unique social structure of ancient Sparta, revealing how militarization, communal living, and rigid hierarchies fostered social cohesion and military dominance. The book argues that Sparta's social model, though seemingly restrictive, was a functional adaptation to constant threats like Helot uprisings. Interestingly, the rigorous training program known as the agoge shaped Spartan boys into formidable warriors, while communal mess halls (syssitia) reinforced social bonds and suppressed individual wealth. The book methodically progresses, first establishing Sparta's historical context before diving into the key themes of militarization, communal living, and hierarchy. Drawing upon historical records like the Great Rhetra and archaeological findings, it connects Sparta's social model to broader concepts in political science and sociology. This approach offers a fresh perspective by considering the interconnectedness of Sparta's social, economic, and political institutions, challenging traditional views and providing a nuanced understanding of this influential ancient society.

    Risqué Business serves up the breastaurant industry, where food service, sex appeal, identity, and gender politics mix. 
    Risqué Business explores the rise and ongoing cultural reckoning of "breastaurants": sports bar–style restaurants like Hooters and Twin Peaks, which have long relied on the sexualized presentation of female servers to attract a mostly straight, male clientele. Ty Matejowsky, professor of anthropology at the University of Central Florida, is uniquely positioned in America's foundational, breastaurant-saturated landscape. From this vantage, he offers a well-balanced account that draws on pop culture, media analysis, and contemporary gender politics. He delivers a smart, layered analysis of how breastaurants commodify youth and femininity, uphold retrograde masculinity, and serve as symbolic battlegrounds in today's highly charged political environments, including America's deeply polarized Red State/Blue State divide. 
    With case studies, cultural critique, and a critical lens on labor and sexuality, Matejowsky reveals how these restaurants are more than just risqué marketing gimmicks. They reflect deeper anxieties about gender, identity, and the uneasy fusion of sex and service in American consumer culture. Risqué Business is a high-spirited study of an industry that thrives at the intersection of appetite and identity.

    In this groundbreaking portrait of corporate seizure of political power, We the Corporations reveals how American businesses won equal rights and transformed the Constitution to serve the ends of capital. 
    Corporations—like minorities and women—have had a civil rights movement of their own and now possess nearly all the same rights as ordinary people. Uncovering the deep historical roots of Citizens United, Adam Winkler shows how that controversial 2010 Supreme Court decision was the capstone of a two-hundred-year battle over corporate personhood and constitutional protections for business. 
    Bringing to resounding life the legendary lawyers and justices involved in the corporate rights movement—among them Daniel Webster, Roger Taney, Lewis Powell, and even Thurgood Marshall—Winkler’s tour de force exposes how the nation’s most powerful corporations gained our most fundamental rights and turned the Constitution into a bulwark against the regulation of big business.
