  Bob W. White

  "World music" emerged as a commercial and musical category in the 1980s, but in some sense music has always been global. Through the metaphor of encounters, Music and Globalization explores the dynamics that enable or hinder cross-cultural communication through music. In the stories told by the contributors, we meet well-known players such as David Byrne, Peter Gabriel, Sting, Ry Cooder, Fela Kuti, and Gilberto Gil, but also lesser-known characters such as the Senegalese Afro-Cuban singer Laba Sosseh and Raramuri fiddle players from northwest Mexico. This collection demonstrates that careful historical and ethnographic analysis of global music can show us how globalization operates and what, if anything, we as consumers have to do with it.

  Lions and Foxes: The Commanders Who Shaped the Second World War By Quentin Drummond Anderson 
  History is told in sweeping movements of armies and nations — but wars are shaped by people. Lions and Foxes goes behind the battle maps to explore the minds that decided the twentieth century's defining conflict. 
  From the deserts of North Africa to the jungles of Burma, from the Kremlin's shadow to the war rooms of Washington and London, this book examines the commanders who turned strategy into history. Some were lions — courageous and relentless. Others were foxes — calculating and morally ambiguous. Together, they forged the war's tragic genius. 
  Drawing on extensive archival research, Quentin Drummond Anderson reveals the psychology and contradictions of men who commanded millions: Erich von Manstein, the tragic strategist who served brilliance in the cause of evil; Erwin Rommel, whose charisma built the myth of the "Good German"; Douglas MacArthur, the theatrical American Caesar; Georgy Zhukov, Stalin's iron marshal; Bernard Montgomery, whose certainty was both strength and curse; and Orde Wingate, the eccentric prophet whose theology of war still echoes through modern special forces doctrine. 
  This is not another list of generals and battles — it is a study of how men thought, decided, and endured. It shows why Montgomery and Slim succeeded where others faltered, why Eisenhower's diplomacy mattered as much as his tactics, why Kesselring's charm masked atrocity, and why Wingate's visionary madness helped shape modern special operations. 
  A lifelong student of military command, drawing on decades of research in British, American, German, Soviet, and Japanese archives, Anderson balances admiration for tactical brilliance with an unflinching look at moral failure — asking whether greatness in war can ever be separated from the destruction it unleashes. 
  Beautifully written and meticulously researched, Lions and Foxes stands alongside works by Antony Beevor and Max Hastings,

  1984 Nomination Acceptance Address

  Ronald Reagan

  • 0

  On August 23, 1984, at the Dallas Convention Center, Reagan accepts the presidential nomination of the Republican party. Reagan reminds Democrats of the high inflation and interest rates when he took office in 1980 and claims Democrats “never met a tax they didn't like or hike.”  
  In 1981 “we started a policy of tightening the Federal budget instead of the family budget.” Reagan cites an improved “misery index” (the total of the inflation and unemployment rates) and improved poverty levels.  
  “In the 4 years before we took office, country after country fell under the Soviet yoke. Since January 20th, 1981, not 1 inch of soil has fallen to the Communists.” (long applause)  
  America is “more confident than ever” with “the strongest economic growth” and “the fastest rate of job creation”.  
  We support NATO, Israel, and free Latin American States that “struggle to prevent Communist takeovers fueled massively by the Soviet Union and Cuba.” We rescued “American students on the imprisoned island of Grenada.” 
  We oppose deficits, and support a balanced budget amendment, the line-item veto, tuition tax credits, enterprise zones, and lower taxes. There is no room for anti-Semitism or bigotry in the party of Lincoln. 
  With America at peace, “we’re in the midst of a springtime of hope” and see America as “a shining city on a hill.” We look forward to “the Olympic Games here in the United States” and marvel “at the journey of the Olympic torch” across our country.
