  Populism - What Everyone Needs...

  Why do populists come to power? Are they a threat to democracy? Has the rise of global populism reached its peak, or is it just beginning? This book provides answers to these questions and many more, by summarizing in non-technical language the vast research literature on populism that extends across political science, economics, sociology, psychology, and history. Going well beyond the usual cases of Trump and Brexit, Paul D. Kenny provides evidence both of the recurrent global appeal of populism, and of its often deleterious consequences.Populism: What Everyone Needs to Know® advances a new approach to defining populism that helps to make sense of the most robust research findings to date, and that sets up an exciting and dynamic approach in research for the years to come. Populism is, at heart, a political movement that challenges the institutional status quo. The great paradox of populism is that while people are often justifiably resentful of a system they feel is rigged against them, their reliance on charismatic leaders to channel their frustrations usually harms rather than helps democracy.

  Paths of Dissent - Soldiers...

  American veterans who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan offer invaluable firsthand perspectives on what made America’s post-9/11 wars so costly and disastrous.Twenty years of America’s Global War on Terror produced little tangible success while exacting enormous harm. In Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States sustained tens of thousands of casualties, expended trillions of dollars, and inflicted massive suffering on the very populations that we sought to “liberate.” Now the inclination to forget it all and move on is palpable. But there is much to be learned from the immense debacle. And those who served and fought in these wars are best positioned to teach us. Paths of Dissent collects fifteen original essays from American veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan—hailing from a wide range of services, ranks, and walks of life—who have come out in opposition to these conflicts. Selected for their candor and eloquence by fellow veterans Andrew Bacevich and Daniel A. Sjursen, these soldiers vividly describe both their motivations for serving and the disillusionment that made them speak out against the system. Their testimony is crucial for understanding just how the world’s self-proclaimed greatest military power went so badly astray.A Macmillan Audio production from Metropolitan Books

  Magna Carta - Its Medieval...

  The Magna Carta Libertatum, commonly known as the Magna Carta, is a royal charter of rights that was signed by King John of England on June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, near Windsor. This historic document was initially drafted by Archbishop of Canterbury Stephen Langton in response to escalating tensions between King John and a group of discontented barons. The Magna Carta sought to resolve these tensions by outlining a series of promises and protections, aimed at securing peace between the monarchy and the nobility. 
  At its core, the Magna Carta addressed several critical grievances, promising protection for the rights of the Church, safeguarding barons from illegal imprisonment, guaranteeing access to swift justice, and imposing limitations on feudal payments to the Crown. These promises were to be enforced through the creation of a council of 25 barons, which would oversee the king's adherence to the terms. However, the charter's effectiveness was short-lived. Within a few months, Pope Innocent III annulled the document, declaring it void, as neither King John nor the rebel barons honored their commitments. This revocation led directly to the First Barons' War, a conflict that further destabilized the kingdom.
