The Rise and Fall of Imperial...

Arlo Holders

Imperialism has shaped the course of world history, influencing politics, economics, culture, and warfare across centuries. At its core, imperialism refers to the policy or ideology by which a state extends its rule over other territories, often through military conquest, economic dominance, or political influence. Empires have risen and fallen throughout history, leaving behind legacies that continue to shape modern societies. This chapter explores the fundamental characteristics of imperialism, its driving forces, and its historical significance.
An empire typically consists of a dominant power that exerts control over vast regions, governing diverse populations with varying degrees of autonomy. While military conquest has historically been a primary means of expansion, economic incentives and ideological justifications have also played crucial roles in the formation of empires. The pursuit of wealth, resources, and trade routes has often motivated imperial ambitions, as seen in the European colonial empires that sought to control lucrative markets across the world. Political and strategic concerns, such as securing borders or maintaining dominance over rivals, have further fueled imperial expansion.
Cultural and ideological factors have also been significant in the spread of empires. Many imperial powers have justified their expansion by claiming to bring civilization, religion, or superior governance to the territories they conquered. The Roman Empire, for example, promoted the spread of Roman law and culture as a means of integrating conquered peoples. Similarly, European colonial empires often framed their dominance as a "civilizing mission," using religion and education as tools to reshape local societies. However, such justifications often masked exploitative economic and political systems that benefited the ruling powers at the expense of the subjugated populations.

The Privateers - How...

Josh Cowen

A deep-dive investigation of education privatization that reveals voucher programs as the faulty products of decades of work by wealthy patrons and influential conservatives 
 
 
 
This thought-provoking work traces the origins of voucher-based education reform to mid-twentieth-century fears over school desegregation. It shows how, in the intervening decades, a cabal of billionaire conservatives supporting a host of special political interests—including economic libertarianism, religious choice, and parental rights—have converged around the issue of education freedom in an ongoing culture war. Through deliberate policymaking, legislation, and litigation, Cowen reveals, an insular advocacy network has enacted a flawed system for education finance driven largely by dogma. 
 
 
 
Far from realizing the purported goal of educational equity, privatization is failing students and exacerbating income inequality, Cowen finds. He cites multiple research studies that conclude that voucher programs return poorer academic outcomes, including lower test scores on state exams, especially among students who are at greater academic risk because of their race, their religion, their gender identity, or their family's income. Continued advancement of these policies, Cowen argues, is an assault on public education as a defining American institution.

Vagabond Princess - The Great...

Ruby Lal

Situated in the early decades of the magnificent Mughal Empire, this first ever biography of Princess Gulbadan offers an enthralling portrait of a charismatic adventurer and unique pictures of the multicultural society in which she lived. Following a migratory childhood that spanned Kabul and north India, Gulbadan spent her middle years in a walled harem established by her nephew Akbar to showcase his authority as the Great Emperor. Gulbadan longed for the exuberant itinerant lifestyle she'd known. With Akbar's blessing, she led an unprecedented sailing and overland voyage and guided harem women on an extended pilgrimage in Arabia. Amid increasing political tensions, the women's "un-Islamic" behavior forced their return, lengthened by a dramatic shipwreck in the Red Sea. 
 
 
 
Gulbadan wrote a book upon her return, the only extant work of prose by a woman of the age. A portion of it is missing, either lost to history or redacted by officials who did not want the princess to have her say. 
 
 
 
Vagabond Princess contemplates the story of the missing pages and breathes new life into a daring historical figure. It offers a portal to a richly complex world, rife with movement and migration, where women's conviviality, adventure, and autonomies shine through.
