Synopsis

Brussels, often seen as simply the heart of the European Union, is revealed in "Brussels Legacy" as a city with a rich tapestry of history, politics, and culture. From its medieval origins to its modern-day role as a political hub, Brussels' story is one of constant evolution.

 
The book uniquely integrates historical analysis, political insights, and cultural commentary to present a holistic portrait of Brussels. One intriguing aspect explored is how Brussels became a center for European politics after World War II, hosting major EU institutions. The book also delves into the city's renowned culinary traditions, such as Belgian chocolate and waffles, reflecting its cultural dynamism.

 
These elements combine to challenge the conventional image of Brussels as merely a bureaucratic center, uncovering a deep and layered identity. The book systematically explores these interconnected themes, starting with Brussels' geographical and historical origins, then moving through its medieval development and its rise as Belgium's capital. It culminates by analyzing how these different facets converge to define Brussels' contemporary identity, addressing the challenges and opportunities facing the city today.

 
Readers gain a comprehensive perspective on Brussels' past and present, enriching their understanding of this fascinating European capital.

    The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion", may be the most contentious and misunderstood provision of the entire United States Constitution. What exactly is an "establishment of religion"? And what is a law "respecting" it? 
     
     
     
    Many commentators reduce the clause to "the separation of church and state." This implies that church and state are at odds, that the public sphere must be secular, and that the Establishment Clause is in tension with the Free Exercise of Religion Clause. All of these implications misconstrue the Establishment Clause's original purpose. The clause facilitates religious diversity and guarantees equality of religious freedom by prohibiting the government from coercing or inducing citizens to change their religious beliefs and practices. 
     
     
     
    In Agreeing to Disagree, Nathan S. Chapman and Michael W. McConnell detail the theological, political, and philosophical underpinnings of the Establishment Clause, state disestablishment, and the disestablishment norms applied to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment. In one of the most thorough accounts of the Establishment Clause, Chapman and McConnell argue that the clause is best understood as a constitutional commitment for Americans to agree to disagree about matters of faith.

    J.B. Bury wrote his “History of Greece” before World War I, but it was such a good overview of classical Greek history that the third edition was still being used as a college textbook in the late 1960's. In the newer editions, a co-author rewrote the material dealing with the early centuries where there have been new archeological developments, but the later chapters and Bury’s framework were retained essentially unchanged. Bury writes in a lucid, easily understood style that entertains as it educates. The book covers artistic and literary development, as well as politics and war, and its field of view includes western Asia Minor, the Agean archipelago, and “Greater Greece” (Sicily and Southern Italy). (Summary by Karen Merline)
