United Nations Formation explores the creation of the UN in 1945, detailing the negotiations and geopolitical forces that shaped this pivotal moment in world history. The book examines the failures of the League of Nations and the devastating impact of World War II, which created a unique opportunity for international collaboration and the pursuit of global peace. It highlights the ambitious goals of the UN, including maintaining security, fostering cooperation, and promoting human rights. A key insight is how the UN's formation represented a shift towards collective security, despite inherent imperfections.

It analyzes the drafting of the UN Charter, its core principles, and the establishment of key organs like the Security Council and the General Assembly. The book emphasizes the compromises and debates, such as the veto power within the Security Council, that shaped the UN's creation.

    Whistling Dixie - Ronald Reagan...

    Jonathan Bartho's Whistling Dixie explores the interdependent political relationship between Ronald Reagan and the white conservative South—a relationship that had a profound impact on Reagan's own career, on the political landscape of the South and the entire United States, and on the identity of the modern Republican Party. Millions of southerners were attracted to the GOP by Reagan's anti-statist ideology and their affection for the man himself—an affection that had been built over decades of appearances in the region. The support of these white southern conservatives was crucial to Reagan's political success, ultimately propelling him to the White House in 1980. Conversely, by supporting Reagan's presidential campaigns, southern conservatives were able to influence the direction of the Republican Party and begin restoring their region to a position of power in Washington. 
 
 
 
Bartho deftly provides a new perspective on Reagan's political career and the Republican Party of the Reagan era while detailing the often-rancorous philosophical differences between Reaganism and southern conservatism and the resulting political conflicts. Whistling Dixie highlights a divide in the Republican Party and in American conservatism that has often been overlooked—a divide that laid the foundations for the GOP's southernization and ultimately led to the rise of Donald Trump.
