  The Impact of Populism - How...

  Populism has become one of the most significant political phenomena of the 21st century, influencing governance on a global scale. The term "populism" has been used to describe a wide range of political movements, parties, and ideologies, but its meaning often remains fluid and context-dependent. At its core, populism is a political approach that seeks to represent the interests of "the people" against a perceived elite or establishment that is seen as corrupt, self-serving, and out of touch with the common citizen. While this core idea is consistent, the ways in which populism is expressed and implemented vary dramatically depending on the political, cultural, and economic context. 
  The roots of populism stretch back to the 19th century, with early movements advocating for the empowerment of ordinary citizens, particularly in agricultural societies. However, the modern manifestation of populism began to take shape in the mid-20th century and accelerated in the 21st century, fueled by growing disillusionment with traditional political elites. The rise of social media, economic inequality, and a globalized world have all contributed to populism's recent resurgence, particularly in Western democracies. 
  Contemporary populism is often characterized by a charismatic leader who claims to speak directly for the people, bypassing traditional political institutions and sometimes challenging the rule of law. These leaders often portray themselves as outsiders, positioned against the political establishment, and frequently use simple, direct rhetoric that resonates with disaffected voters. The populist narrative, which pits the common people against the elite, is one of the most powerful tools in shaping public opinion and driving political discourse.

  Angelica - For Love and Country...

  Few women of the American Revolution have come through 250 years of US history with such clarity and color as Angelica Schuyler Church. She was Alexander Hamilton's "saucy" sister-in-law, and the heart of Thomas Jefferson's "charming coterie" of artists and salonnières in Paris. Her transatlantic network of important friends spanned the political spectrum of her time and place, and her astute eye and brilliant letters kept them well informed. 
   
   
   
  A woman of great influence in a time of influential women (Catherine the Great and Marie-Antoinette were contemporaries), Angelica was at the red-hot center of American history at its birth: in Boston, when General Burgoyne surrendered to the revolutionaries; in Newport, receiving French troops under the command of her soon-to-be dear friend Marquis de Lafayette; in Yorktown, just after the decisive battle; in Paris and London, helping to determine the standing of the new nation on the world stage. 
   
   
   
  In this enthralling and revealing woman's-eye view of a revolutionary era, Molly Beer breathes vibrant new life into a period usually dominated by masculine themes and often dulled by familiarity. In telling Angelica's story, she illuminates how American women have always plied influence and networks for political ends, including the making of a new nation.
