Beschreibung

Rights: Theory and Practice dissects the evolution of human rights from revolutionary ideals to the messy reality of their implementation in France, Britain, and America. It questions how grand declarations translated into tangible benefits for average people, revealing a history far more complex than a simple march towards universal inclusion. The book underscores that the journey of rights is marked by power struggles, societal biases, and pragmatic compromises, challenging any straightforward narrative of democratic advancement.

 
A key focus is on how definitions of citizenship evolved, determining who was included or, more critically, excluded based on factors like race, gender, and class. The book proceeds by first laying the theoretical groundwork of rights as envisioned in revolutionary manifestos. It then transitions into detailed case studies of each nation, examining the initial promises of rights declarations and the subsequent legal and political developments that either expanded or curtailed those rights. The analysis also highlights the social movements and individual champions who fought for greater inclusion and more effective protection.

 
By employing a comparative historical methodology, the book offers a fresh perspective on the enduring challenges of securing true equality and freedom.

    Originally published in 1885. 
    The Prehistoric World; or, Vanished Races, by E.A. Allen 
    We are told that in Tartary, each native makes the iron he needs, just as every household would make its own bread. The furnace is a very small affair, not holding more than three pounds of ore. This is filled with ore and charcoal. The bellows are used, and after the charcoal is all burned out, the result is a small piece of spongy iron, which needs only repeated heating and hammering to be made serviceable. 
    Primitive furnaces, on a somewhat larger scale, have been discovered in Switzerland. Here, the excavation was made in the side of a hill, and a rude, dome-shaped chimney built over it. We must not forget that our task ends where the historian's begins. The use of iron did not long precede history, so we have but little to describe as to the customs and manners of life during the prehistoric Iron Age.

    This nation's Cold War and Global War on Terror defense structures need an update. U.S. Naval Power in the 21st Century provides such a framework for the changed world we live in, offering a roadmap that shows how the U.S. can field a war-winning fleet that can also compete aggressively in peacetime against dangerous competitors. Brent Sadler presents a compelling new strategy and organizing approach that he calls naval statecraft, which acknowledges the centrality and importance of the maritime domain. While similar to Cold War containment strategies against the Soviets, naval statecraft is much more. It must be to challenge China's involvement in global supply chains, which gives that country significant financial heft and influence around the world. Unlike what existed during of the Cold War, however, Sadler provides a unique vision for competing with China and Russia. Rather than simply calling for better coordinated U.S. diplomacy, military operations, and economic statecraft, Sadler argues for integrating the levers of national power coherently and sustainably. It is an approach imminently appropriate to our times but comes with a realization that the nation is not ready for the competition it faces from China and Russia. The book is a valuable contribution to the national debate over how best to respond to China's rise and Russia's antagonisms.

    The Eighteenth Century - A World...

    The eighteenth century was a time of major global transitions. Movements of religious and intellectual revival challenged established ideas, European colonies emerged in the Western hemisphere, global trade expanded, and political revolutions and revolts in America, France, Russia, and Haiti started to reshape political life. At the beginning of the century, power and wealth were roughly balanced among the major regions of the world. By its end, this balance was upset by the emergence of European imperial nation-states and Western European industrial societies whose evolution was enabled by modern processes of industrialization, globalization, and empires. 
     
     
     
    John O. Voll highlights key events and individuals in that transformation, from Emperor Kangxi's meeting with Jesuits and Catherine the Great's imperial expansion of Russia, Jonathan Edwards's Great Awakening and Muhammid ibn Abd al-Wahhab's Islam reform movement to Mulla Abdul Ghafur's trade in cotton, Richard Arkwright's textile factories, and Isaac Newton's and Immanuel Kant's contributions to the Enlightenment and modern science. This book shows that the eighteenth century was a time of transition to modernity, a time when the impact of the first globalization was being felt around the world. Old ways of life disappeared as new ways of organizing human activities emerged.
