Synopsis

Fascist Regimes offers a comprehensive exploration into the rise and fall of fascist governments during the 20th century. It examines how ultranationalism, authoritarianism, and propaganda were used to garner support and consolidate power. The book uniquely dissects the anatomy of fascist ideology, the mechanics of propaganda, and the geopolitical consequences of expansionism, providing a framework for understanding political extremism. For example, the book highlights how sophisticated propaganda techniques were employed to manipulate public opinion, fostering unwavering loyalty while demonizing opposition.

The book begins by investigating the post-World War I conditions that enabled the rise of fascism, such as economic instability and social unrest. It then transitions into detailed case studies of regimes in Italy, Germany, and Japan, analyzing their institutional structures, methods of control, and the cult of personality promoted through relentless propaganda. The book draws connections to political science, sociology, and media studies by examining propaganda techniques and the social and economic conditions that facilitated the rise of fascism.

Ultimately, Fascist Regimes provides readers with vital insights into a dark period of history, equipping them with the knowledge to recognize and resist extremism. Its comparative analysis of diverse fascist movements, highlighting both shared characteristics and unique adaptations, offers a nuanced perspective relevant in today's world.

The Girl With Three Birthdays -...

Patti Eddington

Patti Eddington always knew she was adopted, and her beloved parents seemed amenable enough to questions—but she never wanted to hurt them by expressing curiosity, so she didn't. The story of her mother cutting off and dying her hair when she was a toddler? She thought it was eccentric and funny, nothing more. When she discovered at fifteen that her birthday wasn't actually her birthday? She believed it when her mother said she'd changed it to protect her from the "nosy old biddies" who might try to discover her identity. 
 
 
 
It wasn't until decades later, when a genealogy test led Patti to her biological family (including an aunt with a shocking story) and the discovery of yet another birthday, that she really began to integrate what she thought she knew about her origins. Determined to know the truth, she petitioned a court to unseal records that had been locked up for almost sixty years—and began to put the pieces of her past together, bit by bit. 
 
 
 
Framed by a brief but poignant 1963 "Report of Investigation" based on a caseworker's one-day visit to Patti's childhood home, The Girl With Three Birthdays tells the story of an adoptee who always believed she was the answer to a couple's seventeen-year journey to become parents, until a manila envelope from a rural county court arrived and caused her to question . . . everything.

Thomas E. Weaver

A timely look at how the Electoral College has changed US history and why it endures—told through the lenses of specific people who both influenced the process and were impacted by the results. 
 
 
 
"Over the years, no feature of the Constitution has attracted more criticism than that strange creature called the Electoral College. Thomas E. Weaver has made that history into a story with an intriguing cast of characters, some familiar, several new to me. If you want to know why it is so hard to do away with this long-standing anachronism, Weaver's story will help you understand." —JOSEPH J. ELLIS, Professor Emeritus of History, Mount Holyoke College, author of Pulitzer Prize–winning Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation 
 
 
 
"Those who think that throwing stones at political institutions is the same as reasoned debate should take some lessons from this carefully researched book. With a cast of colorful characters in tow, Weaver examines the long-standing controversies surrounding the EC and sets out numerous proposals for reform, which range from outright abolition to removing the "plus two" clause. Weaver brings a wealth of historical research to the task, writing with authority and clarity." —Kirkus

Can Thought Stop? - Amsterdam...

Jiddu Krishnamurti

"Can thought stop? - 28 May 1967  
• When there is a process of recognition it is the projection of the past. The mind 
is always functioning within the field of time, which is of memory. Can the 
mind go beyond that? 
• What is pleasure and what is desire? 
• How is it possible, without control, subjugation or denying, for thought not to 
allow itself to interfere? 
• When all authority of every kind is put aside, denied, then you can find out for 
yourself. 
• When you are completely attentive, you see. It is only love that sees - not 
thought, the mind or the intellect. One has to learn how to look, how to hear. 
• Q: Could you distinguish between what you mean by the word ‘recognizing’ 
and ‘being aware’? 
• Q: How is one to break off a concept that one has carefully built?"
