Sinopsis

In "And the Kaiser Abdicates: The German Revolution November 1918-August 1919," S. Miles Bouton meticulously examines the tumultuous period that marked the end of the German Empire and the onset of the Weimar Republic. Employing a blend of narrative history and analytical discourse, Bouton illuminates the complexities of the social, political, and economic upheaval following World War I. The author's deft use of primary sources and contemporary accounts provides a vivid tableau of revolutionaries, soldiers, and ordinary citizens grappling with the massive shifts in their world. This work is not just a recounting of events but an exploration of the ideological struggles that shaped the nascent years of modern Germany. S. Miles Bouton, an esteemed historian specializing in German history and revolutionary movements, draws on extensive research and his background in political discourse, providing a context that enriches the narrative. His academic rigor and passion for the subject matter stem from a long-standing interest in the formative moments of the 20th century, which led him to focus on this pivotal event that signaled the collapse of imperialism and the rise of new political ideologies. This book is highly recommended for scholars, students, and general readers alike who seek a nuanced understanding of a crucial yet often overlooked chapter of European history. Bouton's comprehensive analysis not only sheds light on the German Revolution itself but also serves as a lens through which to understand the broader implications for global politics during the interwar period.

    From the award-winning Native American literary writer Diane Glancy comes a book about travel, belonging, and home. Travel is not merely a means to bring us from one location to another. "My sense of place is in the moving," Glancy writes. For her the road is home—its own satisfying destination. But the road also makes demands on us: asking us to be willing to explore the incomprehensible parts of the landscapes we inhabit and pass through—as well as to, ultimately, let them blur as they go by. This, Glancy says, is home. 
     
     
     
    Glancy teases out the lessons of the road that are never easy to define, grappling with her own: childhood's puzzle pieces of her Cherokee heritage and a fraught but still compelling vision of Christianity. As she clocks an inordinate amount of driving, as she experiments with literary forms, she looks to what the land has held for centuries, before the roads were ever there. 
     
     
     
    This, ultimately, is a book about land, tradition, religion, questions, and the puzzle pieces none of us can put together quite right. It's a book about peripheral vision, conflicting narratives, and a longing for travel.

    Political Choice in a Polarized...

    What motivates citizens to support one party over the other? Do they carefully weigh all of the relevant issues and assess which party or candidate best matches their own positions? Or do people look at politics as something more akin to a team sport—the specifics do not matter as long as you know what side your team is on? Answering these questions requires us to think about how much the average American knows about politics. Many scholars of public opinion believe that the majority of Americans only pay passing attention to politics. Thus the electorate's apparent lack of political competence presents a direct challenge to normative theories of democracy. How are citizens supposed to exert control over the government if they have no idea what is going on? 
     
     
     
    In Political Choice in a Polarized America, Joshua N. Zingher argues that these fears are overblown. Not only do individuals have core beliefs about what the government should or should not do, but individuals have become more likely to support the party that best matches their policy attitudes by both identifying as a member of that party and voting for that party in elections. However, as Zingher demonstrates, voters' ability to match their attitudes to a party or candidate varies according to signals sent by elites and increases as parties become more polarized.
