Sinopse

In "Canada Under British Rule," John G. Bourinot presents a comprehensive exploration of Canada's political and social evolution from the time of British colonization through the mid-19th century. Bourinot, drawing upon his keen historical insight, employs a narrative style that interweaves meticulous details with critical analysis, capturing the complexities of colonial governance, Indigenous relations, and the burgeoning Canadian identity. His work is contextualized within the broader landscape of British imperial history, serving as a vital resource for understanding the foundations of Canadian nationalism and the intricate dynamics of colonial power. Bourinot, a key figure in Canadian historiography and an early advocate for responsible governance in Canada, was shaped by his upbringing in a colonial context that fostered his interest in the interplay between Britain and its territories. His experience as a journalist and historian endowed him with an acute awareness of the legislative and cultural undercurrents that influenced Canada's trajectory during this formative period. This deep-seated connection to his subject matter propelled him to document the nuances of Canada's colonial experience meticulously. I highly recommend "Canada Under British Rule" to scholars, students, and any reader intrigued by the complexities of colonial history. Bourinot's rigorous scholarship and engaging prose make this work both informative and captivating, offering essential insights into the roots of modern Canada and the ongoing implications of its colonial legacy.

    This volume traces how a small frontier beylik became a world empire. It follows the Ottomans from Osman and Orhan through Mehmed II and Süleyman I, explaining conquests in the Balkans, the fall of Constantinople in 1453, the building of Istanbul, and the creation of powerful institutions like the Janissaries, the timar system, and the millet framework.

    Understanding trustworthiness is a multifaceted journey that begins with self-reflection and extends outward into every aspect of personal and professional relationships. At its core, trustworthiness embodies a steadfast commitment to honesty, ethical behavior, and consistency, which collectively create a solid foundation for dependable character. Recognizing the importance of trust, individuals who are trustworthy not only honor their promises but also cultivate an environment of reliability in their interactions with others. This journey requires introspection, awareness of personal values, and an unyielding dedication to doing what is right, even in challenging circumstances. 
    When we examine the nature of trustworthiness, it becomes evident that it is more than simply avoiding deceit. It is about aligning one’s actions with deeply held principles, ensuring that words and deeds resonate with a sense of sincerity and transparency. A trustworthy person understands that their reputation is built on small, everyday acts of integrity, whether it is keeping a promise to a friend, fulfilling obligations at work, or providing honest feedback when it is most needed. In doing so, they establish a track record that not only builds self-confidence but also inspires confidence in those who depend on them. 
    Moreover, trustworthiness is an active pursuit that requires continuous effort and self-improvement. It demands that individuals remain vigilant against the temptations of shortcuts and the allure of expediency, always choosing the ethical path even when it may seem inconvenient. Such a mindset reinforces the idea that being dependable is a lifelong commitment, one that is enriched by learning from mistakes and growing through experience. This commitment forms the cornerstone of all meaningful relationships, whether in the context of personal life, the workplace, or broader community interactions.

    American Political Parties - Why...

    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.

    Still struggling from the effects of an abusive relationship? 
    Many people do and sadly there is very little information available to be found online or in the written research, or with counsellors and therapists that can help. Narcissistic abuse is not officially recognised, nor is it widely even known. 
    Even when it is accepted, recognised and known not many people seem to know what to DO ABOUT IT to heal it… The fact is being in a relationship with a narcissist over a long period of time has long lasting traumatic effects that can be extremely catastrophic to the person suffering them. 
    DO THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS SOUND FAMILIAR? 
    - Doubting yourself and your sanity 
    - Feeling like you’re losing your mind 
    - Feeling like you’re always apologizing 
    - You’re second-guessing your memory 
    - Feeling like you aren’t good enough 
    - Feeling misunderstood 
    - Feeling lonely 
    - Ruined self confidence 
    - Extreme weight loss or weight gain 
    - Uncharacteristic jealousy/ insecurity 
    - Feeling like you don’t know the difference between right and wrong 
    - Endless, repetitive obsessive thinking about your ex 
    - Constantly trying to find explanations for what has happened 
    - Feelings of helplessness and despair 
    - A desire to self isolate 
    - Feeling desperately misunderstood 
    - Overwhelming feelings of loss and grief 
    - Extreme bouts of rage 
    I can’t promise you that reading to this book is going to be a “total cure”, but I can promise that if you APPLY YOURSELF DILLIGENTLY, take notes, read and re-read the chapters, follow all instructions to the letter, with a tenacious resolve to get better you will feel an instant decrease in anxiety within the first 24 hours and should see huge improvements within the first 3 days. 
    This is not hype, this is what my audience commonly report
