Beschreibung

Corn Law Battles explores the tumultuous political and economic landscape of 19th-century Britain, centering on the controversial Corn Laws. These laws, designed to protect domestic agricultural interests through tariffs on imported grain, ignited fierce debates between the landed aristocracy and the rising industrial bourgeoisie.

 
The book argues that the repeal of the Corn Laws, often seen as a victory for free trade, was a complex process deeply intertwined with class conflict and the demands of industrial expansion. Examining the impact on grain prices, wages, and profits, the book reveals how these laws fueled social unrest and the formation of movements like the Anti-Corn Law League.

 
The book challenges simplistic views of economic history by showcasing how power dynamics and unforeseen outcomes molded economic policy. It investigates the historical context, key players, and economic arguments surrounding the Corn Laws, drawing from parliamentary debates, pamphlets, and statistical data.

 
Progressing through the origins and evolution of the laws, the book dissects the class dynamics, the Anti-Corn Law League's strategies, and the repeal's short and long-term impacts on British society.

 
Ultimately, Corn Law Battles provides a nuanced understanding of the Corn Laws' legacy and their relevance to contemporary discussions on trade, protectionism, and globalization.

    As Americans face the ongoing war against terrorists and their state sponsors around the world, Sean Hannity reminds us we must also cope with the continuing scourge of accommodation and cowardice at home. With his trademark blend of passion and hard-hitting commentary, he urges Americans to recognize the dangers of putting our faith in toothless ""multilateralism"" when the times call for decisive action. He believes that only through strong defense of our freedoms, at home and around the world, can we preserve America's security and liberty in the dangerous twenty-first century. 
    ""Evil exists,"" Hannity believes. ""It is real, and it means to harm us."" Tracing a direct line from Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin through Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden, he reminds us of the courage and moral clarity of our great leaders. And he reveals how the disgraceful history of appeasement has reached forward from the days of Neville Chamberlain and Jimmy Carter to corrupt the unrepentant leftists of the modern Democratic Party -- from Howard Dean and John Kerry to Bill and Hillary Clinton. 
    Hannity's first blockbuster book, the New York Times bestseller Let Freedom Ring, cemented his place as the freshest and most compelling conservative voice in the country. As host of the phenomenally successful Hannity & Colmes and The Sean Hannity Show, Hannity has won a wildly devoted fan base. Now he brings his plainspoken, take-no-prisoners style to the continuing War on Terror abroad -- and liberalism at home -- in Deliver Us from Evil.

From a corrupt system to vile living conditions, from apathetic corrections officers to a system that does nothing to rehabilitate men, learn one man’s experience just trying to survive the Michigan Department of Corrections…all while keeping his sanity, attempting to piece together a failing marriage and hoping to be reunited with a father he just met before it’s too late.

    To educate means to draw forth (Latin, educare: to lead, to bring up); the teacher must draw forth, but, also, must meet the new individual at her or his own level. But what does the teacher draw forth from the child? Is the teacher like the sun that draws forth the plants? Children do grow up, but at the same time, they come down. What if one is teaching one's own children? 
    There are as many possible approaches to teaching children at home, that is, "homeschooling", as there are homes and families who choose to take up this individualized approach to education. Catherine Read chose to model her School-at-Home on the curriculum used in Waldorf schools. 
    This book is the story of her journey as the primary teacher of her two daughters through the Waldorf curriculum from early childhood through high school grade eleven: what she did, when she did it, and why. 
    Along the way, this flexible, artistic, challenging, and ultimately rewarding approach to education comes into focus. Inspiring and instructional, the account of her years as both parent and teacher will be a boon to anyone thinking of founding their own School-at-Home.
