Summary

"Modern Conflicts" examines the persistent conflicts across the African continent, attributing them to a complex interplay of historical, political, and economic factors. The book argues that understanding the roots of these conflicts is essential for fostering lasting peace and stability. It highlights the lasting impact of colonial legacies, where arbitrarily drawn borders have fueled disputes, and exposes how political struggles for power often exacerbate existing tensions. A key insight is the role of economic disparities, such as unequal resource distribution, in igniting and sustaining conflicts. The book adopts a historically grounded and politically aware approach, dissecting conflict drivers through three main sections.

 
It begins by exploring the historical context of colonialism and its effects on African political boundaries and economic structures. It then delves into the political landscape, analyzing power struggles and the challenges of building democratic institutions. Finally, it examines the economic dimensions of conflict, including resource scarcity and inequality. Through rigorous research and case studies, "Modern Conflicts" offers a comprehensive understanding of the underlying causes and proposes strategies for addressing them, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and policymakers.

    If a poll were taken inquiring if you believed eggs could be Unscrambled, You’d be in the majority with the opinion that it was a rare foolishness to even consider. 
    More scientific debaters would argue cooking fudges the egg proteins, breaks its chemical bonds, causing new bonds to form. On cooling the proteins cannot return to their raw configuration. Even if they did, it’d be impossible to wield cutlery in such a way as to separate the yolk from the white. The mixing & cooking are irreversible processes. 
    As a mad Parallel thinker I disagree. 
    You simply need an uncanny understanding of the components, the various players & their compositions to reverse the several severely transformative processes undergone. 
    For You & I, Non-Unscramblers (of eggs), not simple. Yes. But I won’t bet that it is impossible, I don’t think you should.

    Moderate Conservatism: Reclaiming the Center by John Kekes is a response to attacks on the United States' 300-year-old constitutional democracy by extremists on the left and the right. It makes a reasoned case for moderation and the defense of a political system that has endured because it has balanced the often-conflicting claims of justice, liberty, equality, prosperity, and security. That balance is now threatened by extremists who ignore all else but their grievances. They are blind to the destructive consequences of their attacks on the conditions on which the well-being of all Americans, including their own, depends. 
     
     
     
    The aim of Moderate Conservatism is to protect the United States' political system. It is a defense of what Americans have and are in danger of losing. Central to it is the rarely conscious patriotism of many millions of citizens who live private lives, earn a living, raise a family, and rely on the political system to protect the conditions in which they can continue to do so. They sustain life as Americans know it. And that life is now threatened by the destructive attacks of extremists. The United States is in urgent need of the balance and moderation this book describes and defends.

    A groundbreaking argument that the political spectrum today is inadequate to twenty-first-century America and a major source of the confusion and hostility that characterize contemporary political discourse. 
     
     
     
    As American politics descends into a battle of anger and hostility between two groups called "left" and "right," people increasingly ask: What is the essential difference between these two ideological groups? In The Myth of Left and Right, Hyrum Lewis and Verlan Lewis provide the surprising answer: nothing. As the authors argue, there is no enduring philosophy, disposition, or essence uniting the various positions associated with the liberal and conservative ideologies of today. Far from being an eternal dividing line of American politics, the political spectrum came to the United States in the 1920s and, since then, left and right have evolved in so many unpredictable and even contradictory ways that there is currently nothing other than tribal loyalty holding together the many disparate positions that fly under the banners of "liberal" and "conservative." Cutting against the grain of most scholarship on polarization in America, this book shows why the idea that the political spectrum measures deeply held worldviews is the central political myth of our time and a major cause of the confusion and vitriol that characterize public discourse.

    Throughout history, too many Americans have been disenfranchised or faced needless barriers to vote. Part of the blame falls on the Constitution, which does not contain an affirmative right to vote. The Supreme Court has made matters worse by failing to protect voting rights and limiting Congress's ability to do so. The time has come for voters to take action and push for an amendment to the Constitution that would guarantee this right for all. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on troubling stories of state attempts to disenfranchise military voters, women, African Americans, students, former felons, Native Americans, and others, Richard Hasen argues that American democracy can and should do better in assuring that all eligible voters can cast a meaningful vote that will be fairly counted. He shows how a constitutional right to vote can deescalate voting wars between political parties that lead to endless rounds of litigation and undermine voter confidence in elections, and can safeguard democracy against dangerous attempts at election subversion. 
     
     
     
    The path to a constitutional amendment is undoubtedly hard, especially in these polarized times. A Real Right to Vote explains what's in it for conservatives who have resisted voting reform, and reveals how the pursuit of an amendment can yield tangible dividends for democracy long before ratification.
