Sinopsis

In his seminal work, "Thomas More Premium Edition," the author delves into the intricate tapestry of human thought, morality, and societal structure, encapsulated within the framework of the fictive island of Utopia. More's literary style is marked by a blend of humanism and critical realism, showcasing his profound engagement with Renaissance ideals and the socio-political fervor of his time. Through sharp dialogue and intricate narrative layering, he critiques contemporary European society, exploring themes of governance, equity, and the quest for an ideal state, all while inviting readers into a robust philosophical dialogue that transcends time. Thomas More, a prominent statesman, lawyer, and philosopher, was deeply influenced by the socio-political tumult of 16th-century England. His experiences as a member of the court, alongside his devout Catholic faith, informed his exploration of ethics and governance. More's commitment to his beliefs ultimately led to his martyrdom, underscoring the intersection of personal conviction and public life that shaped his literary output. This work embodies his vision for a harmonious society, reflecting a deep-seated desire for moral integrity that was often at odds with the power structures of his era. "Thomas More Premium Edition" is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of human society and moral philosophy. It serves as a rich resource for scholars and casual readers alike, inviting them to reflect on foundational questions about justice, community, and the human condition. The text not only provides historical insight but also remains strikingly relevant in contemporary discourse, encouraging readers to engage with More's vision of a better world.

  • The Great Global Transformation - The United States China and the Remaking of the World Economic Order - cover

    The Great Global Transformation...

    Branko Milanovic

    From the essential chronicler of the world economy, a portrait of the Great Powers in transition. 
     
    The world’s two great economic powers are on opposite trajectories. In the United States, decades of neoliberal policies produced a small class of rich elites and gutted the middle class. In China, the same global forces have created a massive new upper class. The result is the greatest reshuffling of global incomes since the Industrial Revolution—a dramatic shakeup of each country’s political order. As the two powers retreat from one another, the implications for their futures, and for the world economy, are uncertain. 
     
    In The Great Global Transformation, acclaimed economist Branko Milanovic draws on original research to chart how these seismic shifts will shape the next century of the global economy. As both the US and China retreat into protectionism, Milanovic shows how a new and multipolar world order will follow—and how rising nationalism will have dramatically different effects on the two countries. And he shows us the fight ahead: as plutocracy returns, global war threatens, and a new system silently shapes our nations, driving populist discontent to the breaking point. 
     
    A worthy successor to Capitalism, Alone and his other landmark works, Milanovic’s new book announces the arrival of a new era he terms “national market liberalism,” in which liberalism survives in domestic economies, but not necessarily in the social arena. The Great Global Transformation is Milanovic’s indispensable account of the new twenty-first century now underway.

    American Political Parties - Why...

    John Kenneth White, Matthew R....

    • 0
    American Political Parties is a core textbook on political parties in the United States that places the US party system into a framework designed around the disagreements between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. White and Kerbel argue that the two-party system in the United States began with a common agreement on the key values of freedom, individual rights, and equality of opportunity but that Hamilton and Jefferson disagreed—often vehemently—over how to translate these ideals into an acceptable form of governance. 
     
     
     
    While Hamilton wanted to marry freedom to a strong, active federal government with an energetic president who would act on behalf of all citizens, Jefferson believed that freedom should be allied to local civic virtue, with governmental responsibilities placed primarily at the local level. Today, Hamiltonian nationalism finds its home in the Democratic Party, while Republicans have espoused Jeffersonian localism since 1964. Using this historical framework, American Political Parties examines a range of topics including marketing and social media, campaign finance, reforms in the presidential nominating process, political demography, and third parties. In this new edition, the authors describe four possible futures in the wake of the 2020 election and why Americans believed it was "the most important" election in their lifetimes.

    Throughout American history, some social movements, such as organized labor and the Christian Right, have forged influential alliances with political parties, while others, such as the antiwar movement, have not. When Movements Anchor Parties provides a bold new interpretation of American electoral history by examining five prominent movements and their relationships with political parties.Taking readers from the Civil War to today, Daniel Schlozman shows how two powerful alliances—those of organized labor and Democrats in the New Deal, and the Christian Right and Republicans since the 1970s—have defined the basic priorities of parties and shaped the available alternatives in national politics. He traces how they diverged sharply from three other major social movements that failed to establish a place inside political parties—the abolitionists following the Civil War, the Populists in the 1890s, and the antiwar movement in the 1960s and 1970s. Moving beyond a view of political parties simply as collections of groups vying for preeminence, Schlozman explores how would-be influencers gain influence—or do not. He reveals how movements join with parties only when the alliance is beneficial to parties, and how alliance exacts a high price from movements. Their sweeping visions give way to compromise and partial victories. Yet as Schlozman demonstrates, it is well worth paying the price as movements reorient parties' priorities.Timely and compelling, When Movements Anchor Parties demonstrates how alliances have transformed American political parties.

    A trenchant look at contemporary capitalism's insatiable appetite—and a rallying cry for everyone who wants to stop it from devouring our world 
     
     
     
    Capital is currently cannibalizing every sphere of life—guzzling wealth from nature and racialized populations, sucking up our ability to care for each other, and gutting the practice of politics. In this tightly argued and urgent volume, leading Marxist feminist theorist Nancy Fraser charts the voracious appetite of capital, tracking it from crisis point to crisis point, from ecological devastation to the collapse of democracy, from racial violence to the devaluing of care work. These crisis points all come to a head in Covid-19, which Fraser argues can help us envision the resistance we need to end the feeding frenzy. 
     
     
     
    What we need, she argues, is a wide-ranging socialist movement that can recognize the rapaciousness of capital—and starve it to death.
