Beschreibung

Political Polarization Rise examines the increasing divide in political opinions and its effects on social cohesion and democratic institutions. It delves into how partisan news and social media echo chambers contribute to the problem, impacting everything from legislation gridlock to voting behavior. Understanding these dynamics is essential for anyone concerned about current events and the future of civil discourse. The book doesn't just highlight the issues; it also explores potential solutions, such as promoting media literacy and reforming campaign finance, offering a balanced view suitable for a general audience.

The book explores the causes, consequences, and potential solutions to political polarization. It investigates how economic inequality and identity politics amplify extreme views and how polarization affects social trust and the ability to address shared challenges. Using a mix of research from political science, sociology, and communication studies, the book presents complex data in an accessible way. It begins by introducing key concepts and tracing the historical trends of political polarization, then dissects its drivers and the impact of social media.

Ultimately, this book argues that unchecked political polarization threatens the stability of democracy. It provides fact-based analysis and actionable strategies, encouraging readers to engage in constructive dialogue and promote a more inclusive political system. The book adopts a balanced tone, avoiding jargon and presenting information in a clear, conversational style aimed at informing and inspiring engaged citizenship.

Last Stand of the Louisiana...

Emma Christopher Lirette

In recent years, shrimpers on the Louisiana coast have faced a historically dire shrimp season, with the price of shrimp barely high enough to justify trawling. Yet, many of them wouldn't consider leaving shrimping behind, despite having transferrable skills that could land them jobs in the oil and gas industry. Since 2001, shrimpers have faced increasing challenges to their trade: an influx of shrimp from southeast Asia, several traumatic hurricane seasons, and the largest oil spill at sea in American history.

In Last Stand of the Louisiana Shrimpers, author Emma Christopher Lirette traces how Louisiana Gulf Coast shrimpers negotiate land and blood, sea and freedom, and economic security and networks of control. This book explores what ties shrimpers to their boats and nets. Despite feeling trapped by finances and circumstances, they have created a world in which they have agency.

Lirette provides a richly textured view of the shrimpers of Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, calling upon ethnographic fieldwork, archival research, interdisciplinary scholarship, and critical theory. With evocative, lyrical prose, she argues that in persisting to trawl in places that increasingly restrict their way of life, shrimpers build fragile, quietly defiant worlds, adapting to a constantly changing environment. In these flickering worlds, shrimpers reimagine what it means to work and what it means to make a living.

Swing Low volume 1 - A History...

Walter R. Strickland

Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
A Groundbreaking Portrait of African American Christianity
The history of African American Christianity is one of the determined faith of a people driven to pursue spiritual and social uplift for themselves and others to God's glory. Yet stories of faithful Black Christians have often been forgotten or minimized. The dynamic witness of the Black church in the United States is an essential part of Christian history that must be heard and dependably retold.
In this groundbreaking two-volume work, Walter R. Strickland II does just that through a theological-intellectual history highlighting the ways theology has formed and motivated Black Christianity across the centuries. Through his original research he has identified five theological anchors grounding African Americans in Christian orthodoxy:

- Big God
- Jesus
- Conversion and walking in the Spirit
- The Good Book
- Deliverance
In volume 1, a narrative history, Strickland tells the story of these themes from the 1600s to the present. He explores the crucial ecclesiastical, social, and theological developments, including the rise of Black evangelicalism as well as broader contributions to politics and culture.
Swing Low offers a defining rubric under which to observe, understand, and learn from the diverse and living entity that is African American Christianity. Volume 2, a companion anthology, covers the breadth of these historical developments by presenting primary-source documents so we can listen to Black Christianity in its own words.
