  Geopolitics and Democracy - The...

  A large, widening gap has opened between Western democracies' international ambitions and their domestic political capacity to support them. On issues ranging from immigration and international trade to national security, new political parties on the left and the right are rejecting the core foreign policy principles that Western governments have championed for over half a century. In Geopolitics and Democracy, Peter Trubowitz and Brian Burgoon provide a powerful new explanation for the rise of anti-globalism in the West. 
   
   
   
  Trubowitz and Burgoon show that support for globalism has been receding for thirty years in Western parties and legislatures. They trace the anti-globalist backlash to foreign policy decisions that mainstream parties and party elites made after the end of the Cold War. These decisions sought to globalize markets and pool sovereignty at the supranational level while applying neoliberal reforms to social protections and guarantees at home. 
   
   
   
  Geopolitics and Democracy reveals how domestic support for international engagement during the long East-West geopolitical contest was contingent upon social protections within Western democracies. In the absence of a renewed commitment to those social purposes, Western democracies will struggle to find a collective grand strategy that their domestic publics will support.

  We Are the Leaders We Have Been...

  In We Are the Leaders We Have Been Looking For, one of the nation's preeminent scholars and a New York Times bestselling author, Eddie S. Glaude Jr., makes the case that the hard work of becoming a better person should be a critical feature of Black politics. Through virtuoso interpretations of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and Ella Baker, Glaude shows how we have the power to be the heroes that our democracy so desperately requires. 
   
   
   
  Based on the Du Bois Lectures delivered at Harvard University, the book begins with Glaude's unease with the Obama years. He felt then, and does even more urgently now, that the excitement around the Obama presidency constrained our politics as we turned to yet another prophet-like figure. He examines his personal history and the traditions that both shape and overwhelm his own voice. Glaude weaves anecdotes about his evolving views on Black politics together with the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, John Dewey, Toni Morrison, James Baldwin, and Ralph Ellison, encouraging us to reflect on the lessons of these great thinkers. 
   
   
   
  Narrated with passion and philosophical intensity, this book is a powerful reminder that if American democracy is to survive, we must step out from under the shadows of past giants to build a better society—one that derives its strength from the pew, not the pulpit.

  Inca Mythology - Sacred Legends...

  The Inca Empire, at its zenith, spanned much of South America, including present-day Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, and parts of Chile and Argentina. Known for its advanced architecture, agricultural systems, and administrative organization, the Inca civilization also possessed a deeply spiritual culture. Central to their worldview was a rich tapestry of mythology that explained the creation of the world, the origins of humankind, and the roles of the gods in the natural and spiritual realms. These sacred legends were not just stories; they were the very foundation upon which the Inca society was built, shaping everything from daily rituals to the governance of the empire.  
  Inca mythology was intricately connected to the natural world, with gods and deities representing various elements of the environment, such as the sun, the moon, the earth, and water. The Inca people believed that these deities were not distant, abstract beings but rather active forces that influenced their lives. The most important gods were thought to have a direct relationship with the ruler, often considered to be divine or descended from these gods. As such, the Inca king, or Sapa Inca, was revered as the son of the sun god, Inti, and his authority was considered sacred.  
  The role of mythology extended beyond the divine and into the social and political spheres. It was through myth that the Inca legitimized their rule, connected their empire to the divine order, and reinforced the unity of their vast territories. Legends of the first rulers, such as Manco Capac and Mama Ocllo, were tied to creation myths that depicted them as divine figures sent to bring civilization to the world. These stories were used to justify Inca conquests and to explain the hierarchical structure of society.
