Sinopsis

"Sacred Time" explores the profound connection between timekeeping and spirituality across diverse cultures. It argues that calendars are not merely practical tools but culturally constructed frameworks imbued with religious meaning. The book highlights how religious beliefs have shaped our perception and organization of time, demonstrating the cultural impact of religion on daily life.

 
One intriguing insight is how prayer cycles, such as daily monastic routines, structure believers' lives, connecting them to a divine order. Another is the role of sacred festivals like Easter or Diwali in reinforcing communal identity and spiritual renewal.

 
The book examines the evolution of calendar systems, from ancient lunar calendars to complex Mayan systems, providing historical context for understanding how early civilizations integrated astronomy with religious narratives. It progresses by introducing fundamental concepts of sacred time, then explores prayer cycles and sacred festivals in different traditions.

 
By drawing from archaeological records, ancient texts, and ethnographic studies, "Sacred Time" offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between time, religion, and culture, making it valuable for anyone interested in history, religion, and cultural diversity.

    Democracy Unmoored - Populism...

    Samuel Issacharoff

    The 2016 election of Donald Trump focused people's minds on populism, and most of the attention paid to the subject since has been on the threat it poses to wealthy democracies. In Democracy Unmoored, Samuel Issacharoff takes a far wider-angle view of the phenomenon, covering countries from across the globe: Brazil, Poland, Argentina, Turkey, India, Hungary, Venezuela, and more. Just as importantly, he focuses on populism's attack on the institutions of governance. Democracy requires two critical features: first, a commitment to repeat play such that political actors understand that what goes around comes around; and, second, institutional constraints so that the majority can prevail, albeit not by too much. Democracies must avoid the doomsday scenario in which the contending parties see the next election as the final choice between salvation and perdition. Issacharoff shows how populist governance undermines each of these two critical underpinnings of stable democracy, first by compressing the time horizon to the immediate, and second by eroding institutional constraints on strongman rule. At the same time, Issacharoff highlights the fact that ascendent populists were pushing in an open door as they found democracies in states of disrepair in the post-2008 world.

    No Democracy Lasts Forever - How...

    No Democracy Lasts Forever argues that the Constitution has become a threat to American democracy and must be dramatically changed or replaced if secession is to be avoided. 
     
     
     
    Deeply troubled by the Constitution's inherent flaws, Erwin Chemerinsky, the renowned dean of Berkeley law school, came to the sobering conclusion that our nearly 250-year-old founding document is responsible for the crisis now facing American democracy. Pointing out that just fifteen of the 11,848 amendments proposed since 1789 have passed, Chemerinsky contends that the very nature of our polarization results from the Constitution's "bad bones," which have created a government that no longer works or has the confidence of the public. Yet political armageddon can still be avoided, Chemerinsky writes, if a new constitutional convention is empowered to replace the Constitution of 1787, much as the Founding Fathers replaced the outdated Articles of Confederation. If this isn't possible, Americans must give serious thought to forms of secession—including a United States structured like the European Union—based on a recognition that what divides us as a country is, in fact, greater than what unites us.
