Synopsis

Revolutionary Wars examines how revolutions have reshaped the world, focusing on their lasting impact on global governance and international relations. These political uprisings often stem from economic inequality, social unrest, and weak governance, challenging existing power structures and sparking significant societal changes. The book delves into the diverse paths these movements take, highlighting both successes and unintended consequences. For example, the American and French Revolutions established principles of self-determination and popular sovereignty, demonstrating how localized events can trigger global shifts. The book uses a comparative approach, analyzing revolutions from the 18th century to the present, including the Russian and Chinese Communist Revolutions, to identify recurring patterns and enduring legacies. Each case study explores the revolution's causes, key players, strategies, and outcomes, emphasizing their global impact. It draws on a wide array of sources, offering a comprehensive analysis suitable for anyone interested in understanding how revolutions influence political ideologies, economic systems, and social norms. Revolutionary Wars progresses by defining key terms in the introduction, then examining specific revolutionary periods, and concluding with a synthesis of case studies to address contemporary challenges such as state fragility, political extremism, and the rise of nationalism. By connecting revolutions to broader fields like sociology, economics, and international relations, the book provides a balanced and insightful examination of the forces that have shaped the modern world.

    In the early hours of February 24, 2022, Russian forces attacked Ukraine. The brutality of the Russian assault has horrified the world. But Russians themselves appear to be watching an entirely different war—one in which they are the courageous underdogs and kind-hearted heroes successfully battling a malign Ukrainian foe. 
     
     
     
    Russia analyst Jade McGlynn takes us on a journey into this parallel military and political universe to reveal the sometimes monstrous, sometimes misconstrued attitudes behind Russian majority backing for the invasion. Drawing on media analysis and interviews with ordinary citizens, officials and foreign-policy elites in Russia and Ukraine, McGlynn explores the grievances, lies and half-truths that pervade the Russian worldview. She also exposes the complicity of many Russians, who have invested too deeply in the Kremlin's alternative narratives to regard the war as Putin's foolhardy mission. In their eyes, this is Russia's war—against Ukraine, against the West, against evil—and there can be no turning back.

    The Summa Theologica (or the Summa Theologiae or simply the Summa, written 1265–1274) is the most famous work of Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225–1274) although it was never finished. It was intended as a manual for beginners and a compilation of all of the main theological teachings of that time. It summarizes the reasoning for almost all points of Christian theology in the West, which, before the Protestant Reformation, subsisted solely in the Roman Catholic Church. The Summa's topics follow a cycle: the existence of God, God's creation, Man, Man's purpose, Christ, the Sacraments, and back to God. (Summary adapted from the Wikipedia)This selection of the Summa Theologica covers questions 1-46 of the Secunda Secundae ("Second-half of the Second Part"), comprising a Treatise on the Theological Virtues: Faith (questions 1-16), Hope (questions 17-22), and Love (questions 23-46).
