Sinopse

Korean War offers a comprehensive exploration of a conflict often overshadowed, yet profoundly influential in shaping modern geopolitics. This book explains the war's origins in the context of Cold War tensions and the division of the Korean peninsula, highlighting the clash between communism and democracy. It provides insights into the major military campaigns, such as the Inchon landings and the subsequent Chinese intervention, which dramatically altered the war's trajectory. The book uniquely addresses the long-term consequences, examining the divergent paths of North and South Korea and the continuing security challenges in the region. The narrative progresses chronologically, beginning with pre-war conditions and culminating in an analysis of the armistice and its aftermath. Drawing on diverse sources, including declassified documents and personal accounts, the book adopts a balanced approach, presenting multiple perspectives and encouraging critical evaluation. By connecting military history with political science and economics, Korean War offers a multifaceted understanding of this pivotal event and its enduring legacy.

    In 2018, I suffered a massive cerebral stroke at the age of 24 after cracking my neck. I woke up in a hospital with little knowledge of myself, the world, or any grounding in reality because of the damage to my brain along with left-sided paralysis. I am not the person I was before and though I want to be them again I can't and must bury them, grieve, and start over. This is how I came to terms with my new existence while letting go of my past, not because I want to but because it is a requirement to move forward.

    A powerful, inspiring, and achievable vision of a society based on cooperation and community instead of competition and commodification. 
     
    This book counters the dominant and destructive story that we are polarized, violent, selfish, and destined to consume everything in sight. That is not who we are. 
     
    The challenge, Peter Block says, is that we are suffering under an economic theology that is based on scarcity, self-interest, competition, and infinite growth. We're told we can purchase and outsource all that matters. Block calls this the "business perspective narrative." It dominates not only the economy but also architecture, faith communities, journalism, arts, neighborhoods, and much more. 
     
    Block offers an antidote:  the "common good narrative." It embodies the belief that we are basically communal and cooperative. And that we have the capacity to communally produce what we care most about: raising a child, safety, livelihood, health, and a clean and sustainable environment. 
     
    This book describes how shifts to the common good perspective could transform many areas, fostering journalism that reports on what works, architecture that designs habitable spaces creating connection, faith collectives that build community, a market that is restrained and local, and leadership and activism that build social capital by creating trust among citizens. With these shifts, we would fundamentally change the world we live in for the better.

    This is Mill’s first work on economics. It foreshadows his Political Economy which was the standard Anglo-American Economics textbook of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Mill’s economic theory moved from free market capitalism, to government intervention within the precepts of Utilitarianism, and finally to Socialism. [Summary written by Gary Gilberd]

    Democracy Unmoored - Populism...

    Samuel Issacharoff

    The 2016 election of Donald Trump focused people's minds on populism, and most of the attention paid to the subject since has been on the threat it poses to wealthy democracies. In Democracy Unmoored, Samuel Issacharoff takes a far wider-angle view of the phenomenon, covering countries from across the globe: Brazil, Poland, Argentina, Turkey, India, Hungary, Venezuela, and more. Just as importantly, he focuses on populism's attack on the institutions of governance. Democracy requires two critical features: first, a commitment to repeat play such that political actors understand that what goes around comes around; and, second, institutional constraints so that the majority can prevail, albeit not by too much. Democracies must avoid the doomsday scenario in which the contending parties see the next election as the final choice between salvation and perdition. Issacharoff shows how populist governance undermines each of these two critical underpinnings of stable democracy, first by compressing the time horizon to the immediate, and second by eroding institutional constraints on strongman rule. At the same time, Issacharoff highlights the fact that ascendent populists were pushing in an open door as they found democracies in states of disrepair in the post-2008 world.
