The World's Reaction to American Monopoly

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

America is the world's preeminent superpower, but its global dominance is facing a number of challenges. China is rising rapidly, Russia is reasserting itself, and the European Union is a major economic and political player. The Global South is also increasingly asserting its voice in global affairs.

In this book, we explore the challenges to American power and the consequences of American power for the world. We also examine the future of American power and the role that America will play in the 21st century.

America's global dominance has had a profound impact on the world. It has spread democracy and human rights, promoted global trade, and raised the standard of living for millions of people around the world. However, America's power has also been used to pursue its own interests, sometimes at the expense of other countries.

The future of American power is uncertain. Some believe that America will continue to be the world's leading superpower for many years to come. Others believe that America's power will decline as other countries rise.

This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the challenges facing America and the future of American power. It is a timely and thought-provoking analysis of one of the most important issues of our time.

In this book, you will learn about:

* The challenges to American power
* The consequences of American power for the world
* The future of American power
* America's role in the 21st century

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in international relations, American history, or the future of the world.

The Republic

Plato

The Republic by Plato is a philosophical text that addresses the question of justice. In the text, Plato argues that justice is not simply a matter of following the laws of the city, but rather is something that must be based on the ideal state of the city. For Plato, the ideal state is one in which all citizens are able to participate in the ruling of the city.

Most Famous Walls of Antiquity...

Charles River Editors

Throughout history, walls have been constructed as part of nations’ and kingdoms’ defensive structures to keep barbarian hordes, marauding rebels, and recalcitrant tribes out of defined geographic areas. Defensive walls were usually constructed by fairly advanced and sophisticated peoples, such as the Romans and Chinese, with varying degrees of success. Of course, the most famous of all defensive walls in the world is the Great Wall of China, which is actually a series of walls and forts built over the span of several centuries. The Chinese built the Great Wall of China, and several others, primarily to keep invaders from the north, such as the Mongols, out of their land, or at least to slow them down as they fled north after raids. The Romans also built spectacular walls, most notably the Antonine Wall and Hadrian’s Wall. The purpose of those walls was to set the northern limit of the Roman Empire at approximately the modern border of England and Scotland, and, like the Great Wall of China, it was intended to keep out or slow down marauding barbarian tribes from the north.  
The Great Wall of China is perhaps the wonder of the world that has most captured the human imagination, and as the quotes about it indicate, the wall has acquired special significance even outside of China. The places and ways in which it has taken hold vary greatly, but one thing is certain: the Great Wall of China is as amazing as it is mysterious, and it’s as mundane as it is magical. 
The Romans were master builders, and much of what they built has stood the test of time. Throughout their vast empire they have left grand structures, from the Forum and Pantheon in Rome to the theatres and hippodromes of North Africa and the triumphal gates in Anatolia and France. Wherever they went, the Romans built imposing structures to show their power and ability, and one of their most impressive constructions was built on the northernmost fringe of the empire.

Crying Wolf - A Memoir

Eden Boudreau

Shortlisted for the 2024 Lambda Literary Award for Bisexual Nonfiction

It's a tale as old as time. Girl meets boy. Boy wants girl. Girl says no. Boy takes what he wants anyway.
After a violent sexual assault, Eden Boudreau was faced with a choice: call the police and explain that a man who wasn't her husband, who she had agreed to go on a date with, had just raped her. Or go home and pray that, in the morning, it would be only a nightmare.
In the years that followed, Eden was met with disbelief by strangers, friends, and the authorities, often as a result of stigma towards her non-monogamy, sex positivity, and bisexuality. Societal conditioning of acceptable female sexuality silenced her to a point of despair, leading to addiction and even attempted suicide. It was through the act of writing that she began to heal.
Crying Wolf is a gripping memoir that shares the raw path to recovery after violence and spotlights the ways survivors are too often demonized or ignored when they belong to marginalized communities. Boudreau heralds a new era for others dismissed for "crying wolf." After all, women prevailing to change society for others is also a tale as old as time.
