Sinopse

In an era of heightened political polarization, "Socialism, Capitalism & Democracy" offers voters a clear-eyed primer on competing economic philosophies shaping American governance. Tom Lewellen cuts through partisan rhetoric to illuminate how Socialist and Capitalist approaches influence everything from property rights and market competition to government accountability and personal freedom.
 
Drawing on insights from Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and Joseph Schumpeter, Lewellen examines how these principles manifest in real-world policies affecting education, retirement, healthcare, and poverty reduction. The book reveals why some government programs succeed while others fail to meet objectives despite massive spending.
 
Rather than advocating for either extreme, Lewellen proposes a middle path featuring evidence-based governance—a system that tests hypotheses, measures outcomes, and adapts when programs underperform. His proposed "CIVIL Governance" platform offers ten transformative reforms designed to increase economic growth, improve government efficiency, and bridge partisan divides.
 
Written for the common voter but rich with economic insights, this accessible exploration exposes how America's oscillation between competing governance models has hampered growth and created unsustainable systems. With China's economic ascendance looming, Lewellen presents a compelling case for transforming America's approach to governance before it's too late.
 
If you enjoyed "Why Nations Fail," "Breaking the Two-Party Doom Loop," and "Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy," you'll love "Socialism, Capitalism & Democracy: Primer For The Voter."

    Before any type of unified political entity named Israel existed, the Jewish groups whose descendants would later form Israel identified themselves by their particular tribe. If asked their nationality or country of origin, they would likely identify themselves as Danites (from the tribe of Dan; Ex. 31:6) or Ephraimites (from the tribe of Ephraim; Judg. 12:5), etc. The main way to differentiate these tribes from other tribes in Canaan was their common worship of the deity YHWH, but in terms of language or other cultural characteristics, it would have been difficult to tell a Canaanite from an Israelite.  
    	Eventually, these separate tribes united together as a type of confederation, allies who made a treaty (covenant) to provide military aid for one another when threatened by an enemy state. But it was only under the charismatic leadership of David that the 12 tribes united into a single political entity. Scholars refer to the period encompassing the reign of David and his son Solomon as the United Monarchy. This period, spanning only two generations, was the only time when all of the tribes were politically united, and after a contentious schism that resulted because the northern tribes felt exploited by the Judean kings, the northern tribes seceded from the “United Kingdom” and reverted back to the ancient northern versus southern division of the tribes. The main difference this time was that the southern kingdom now incorporated the tribe of Benjamin, located at the border between these two new nations, within its political borders. The tribe of Simeon (south of Judah) had already ceased to maintain a separate existence. The new northern kingdom adopted the name Israel, while the southern kingdom took their regional name of Judah.

    Drawing from stratification economics, intersectionality, and respectability politics, The Love Jones Cohort centers on the voices and lifestyles of members of the Black middle class who are single and living alone (SALA). While much has been written about both the Black middle class and the rise of singlehood, this book represents a first foray into bridging these two concepts. In studying these intersections, The Love Jones Cohort provides a more nuanced understanding of how race, gender, and class, coupled with social structures, shape five central lifestyle factors of Black middle-class adults who are SALA. The book explores how these Black adults define family and friends and decide on whether and how to pursue romantic relationships, articulate the ebbs and flows of being Black and middle class, select where to live and why, accumulate and disseminate wealth, and maintain overall health, well-being, and coping mechanisms.
