  Roadblocked - Joe Biden's Rocky...

  Joe Biden and Kamala Harris began their transition to the White House in the most unusual of circumstances: a global pandemic, a sitting president violently refusing to accept the results of the election, and a historic racial reckoning all posed profound questions about how they would staff large parts of the government and articulate policy remedies to pressing problems in just eleven weeks. 
   
   
   
  Heath Brown's Roadblocked is a revelatory look at the seventy days between the election and the inauguration with a focus on the ways the Biden-Harris transition team sought help and advice to overcome these obstacles. More than that, Roadblocked is also a gripping history of US presidential transitions over the past half-century that compares the transition teams of the last four administrations. 
   
   
   
  Biden-Harris transition leaders had a massive team with a stated aim to promote coordination, encourage teamwork, and avoid siloing staff. In the end, however, these aims were foiled by the conditions of the pandemic and steep hierarchies, which both reduced collaboration and information sharing. In the end, despite substantial changes in the Democratic coalition, newly influential groups armed with novel tactics, and great shifts in their political agenda, the Biden-Harris transition did not lead to transformation. Roadblocked explains why.

  Never has America seen an election as volatile, polarizing, and rampant with fraud and collusion as the one in 2020 between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. And the Democrats are the ones to blame, according to Mollie Hemingway. 
  After Trump became president in 2016, Democrats, the liberal media, and Big Tech schemed tirelessly to get him out of office by any means necessary. Hemingway’s Rigged takes an intimate look at how they succeeded, including the events leading up to the 2020 election, what happened on Election Day, and the legal challenges by Republicans seeking to investigate the validity of the election process and its results. 
  Hemingway argues that Democrats used every trick in the book to get Trump out of the presidency, and it worked - barely. As a result, we need to understand what they did to make sure further elections are controlled by no one but the American people.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  International relations is a complex and ever-evolving field that shapes the global political landscape. The relationships between countries, organizations, and individuals influence everything from trade and diplomacy to security and human rights. Understanding the history, theories, and modern-day dynamics of international relations is essential for anyone seeking to grasp the intricacies of global affairs. The study of international relations has evolved from a niche academic discipline into a vital framework for analyzing global conflicts, cooperation, and power struggles. 
    
  The modern world has been profoundly shaped by the forces of globalization, which have made international relations more interconnected than ever before. Advances in communication, transportation, and technology have blurred the lines between domestic and international issues. Countries can no longer afford to operate in isolation; they must cooperate on matters of shared concern, such as climate change, terrorism, economic crises, and public health. However, the globalized world also comes with challenges. Increasingly, nations must navigate a complex web of relationships and competing interests, where power dynamics and the quest for dominance can create conflict. 
    
  Globalization has had a profound impact on international relations, but it has also revealed the limits of traditional diplomacy. In the past, diplomacy was primarily conducted between states, often in secret negotiations behind closed doors. Today, international diplomacy involves a wider range of actors, from multinational corporations and non-governmental organizations to grassroots movements and individual leaders. This shift has led to both opportunities and challenges for international cooperation, as diverse interests often clash in the pursuit of a global agenda.

  Feeling Their Pain - Why Voters...

  Jared McDonald

  The 2020 presidential election in the United States marked, for many, a return to "compassionate politics." Joe Biden had run on a platform of empathy, emphasizing his personal history as a means of connecting with everyone, from American workers who had lost jobs to military families who had lost loved ones. Although perceptions of candidate compassion are broadly understood to influence vote choice, less understood is the question of how candidates convince voters they truly "care about people like them." In Feeling their Pain, Jared McDonald provides a framework for understanding why voters view some politicians as more compassionate than others. 
   
   
   
  McDonald shows that perceptions of compassion in candidates for public office are based on the number and intensity of commonalities that bind citizens to political leaders. Commonalities can come in many forms, such as a shared experience, a shared emotion, or a shared identity. Compassion may be universal, such as when candidates convey empathy to all individuals who are struggling. Or compassion may be exclusionary, such as when candidates express a preference for some groups over others. Thus, the way campaigns choose to wield compassion in their messaging strategies has important implications not only for election outcomes, but for American political polarization as well.
