  Growth Modernity and the Nations...

  Dwight Semler

  Eric Humphrey and Dwight Semler present a new theory explaining the mysterious historical emergence of modern economic growth and its even more baffling offspring, modernity. Noticeable changes in material life began less than three centuries ago, but previous theoretical accounts have failed to explain their arrival. Thinkers assumed modern wealth and morality were the universal standard driving human history. They assumed modern rights and riches were natural and normal. In this way they thought of such things as ends rooted in human nature, rather than deriving them as consequences from a historical, nonmodern baseline. Misdirected, they set out to liberate the imprisoned modern homunculus who "caused modernity" through moral education and economic institutions. Modernity became an "awareness problem." Yet this high-maintenance modern self and its ever-growing needs are a consequence of modern processes rather than their cause. Consequently, theorists of the modern world produced comically omnipotent notions of human agency. Marxists and developmental economists saw modernity as a moral or material self-realization project, requiring only a liberator or engineer. But when their God-of-Genesis model failed the facts, they overreacted and defaulted to its alter ego—humans were passive leaves in the wind of history. Modernity thus oscillates between a chosen destiny and a given fate. With modernity represented as a historical fate, all pretense of a grand theoretical view vanishes in thick description of one damn thing after another, and the historian's rote chronology replaces any theoretical causality, as a specific description of a particular falling rock replaces a general theory of gravity. Understanding the modern world and how it came to be, argue the authors, is less a matter of facts than of the foundational assumptions used to link facts together into robust and coherent theories. We must un-assume our modern selves and give poverty and illiberality their just historical due. With better and more scientifically consistent assumptions, they argue, the old facts of history can be seen in a new way. Then the solution to understanding the most puzzling and abnormal of human events, the modern world itself, turns out to be hiding in plain sight.

  The Unforgettable Story of the Silver State
  
  Nevada has a story unlike any other.
  
  Long before the bright lights of Las Vegas lit up the desert, this land held stories carved into the earth. Native American tribes lived here for centuries, surviving and thriving, in some of the harshest terrain in the West.
  
  Then came the settlers. Some were chasing land, others chasing luck. What they found was buried treasure: copper, gold, and especially silver. So much silver that it gave Nevada its nickname and a reputation that still lingers.
  
  But silver was only the beginning.
  
  This book follows Nevada's journey from wide-open frontier to one of the most talked-about places in America. From mining booms and Mormon wagon trains to nuclear tests and UFO sightings, Nevada's history is full of twists, secrets, and surprises.
  
   Inside, you'll discover: 
  
  - The deep roots of Nevada's Native cultures and how they shaped the land. 
  - How silver and gold rushes turned this quiet territory into a state. 
  - The early rise of Las Vegas and why gambling became its signature. 
  - The role of Mormon settlers in shaping early communities. 
  - The long shadow of Area 51 and Nevada's military testing grounds. 
  - What still sets Nevada's people apart: tough, independent, and never boring. 
  - And much, much more!

  Did you know New Zealand was the first country to offer universal suffrage? 
  Many people today only started dreaming of visiting New Zealand after discovering it was the beautiful filming place of the Lord of the Rings series. However, ignoring the two islands in the Pacific Ocean is not a modern thing. The remote lands of New Zealand were the last large, livable lands to be discovered, inhabited, and colonized. 
  Since the Polynesians (the first humans in New Zealand who would become known as the Māori) were the most modern humans to settle in an uninhabited land, it is no surprise New Zealand has always been ahead of its time. Despite its late settlement, New Zealand has been one of the most rapidly modernizing nations in the world. New Zealand was the first country to introduce full democracy, women’s suffrage, state pensions, and state housing. New Zealand has a history unlike any other nation, from its late inhabitation to its unusually respectful colonization, involving hundreds of Māori chiefs signing an agreement to allow European settlement. 
  Although New Zealand was the last inhabited country and one of the most isolated developed regions in the world, it has been significantly involved in historical events, adding even more interest to its complex and rich history. 
  Intrigued? Pick up this audiobook to learn more about the following:Extinct animals that used to call New Zealand home;The arrival of the Polynesians and what that meant for the region;The early European explorations and who is credited with discovering the island nation;Colonization efforts and their impact on the Māori;How New Zealand was run under European control;The progressive changes that took place;And so much more!
