Beschreibung

John R. Commons' 'Races & Immigrants in USA' is a groundbreaking work that delves into the complex issue of race and immigration in the United States. Written in a meticulous and scholarly style, Commons explores the historical context of immigration and its impact on the social and economic landscape of the country. Drawing on sociological and historical research, the book offers a comprehensive analysis of the experiences of different racial and ethnic groups in America. Commons' literary approach combines empirical data with engaging storytelling, making it an accessible and compelling read for both academics and general readers alike. John R. Commons, a pioneering economist and sociologist, was a leading figure in the Progressive Era known for his contributions to labor studies and social reform. His firsthand experience working with immigrant communities and advocating for fair labor practices deeply influenced his writing on race and immigration. 'Races & Immigrants in USA' reflects Commons' commitment to social justice and his dedication to studying the complexities of American society. I highly recommend 'Races & Immigrants in USA' to anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the historical and social dynamics surrounding race and immigration in the United States. Commons' insightful analysis and profound insights make this book a must-read for anyone seeking to engage with these important issues.

Gallus - Scotland England and...

Michael McEwan

There are two kinds of people in this world. Those who insist that football is just a game, and those who know better. Take the April 1967 clash between England and Scotland. Wounded by their biggest rivals winning the World Cup just nine months earlier, Bobby Brown's Scots travelled to Wembley on the mother of all missions. Win and they would take a huge step towards qualifying for the 1968 European Championship, end England’s formidable 19-game unbeaten streak, and, best of all, put Sir Alf Ramsey’s men firmly back in their box. Lose? Well, that was just unthinkable.  

Meanwhile, off the pitch, the winds of change were billowing through Scotland. Nationalism, long confined to the margins of British politics, was starting to penetrate the mainstream, gaining both traction and influence. Was England’s World Cup victory a defining moment in the Scottish independence movement? Or did it consign Scotland to successive generations of myopic underachievement?

Michael McEwan, author of The Ghosts of Cathkin Park, returns to 1967 to explore a crucial ninety minutes in the rebirth of a nation.
