Sinossi

A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents: Andrew Jackson assembles a comprehensive collection of significant documents that illuminate the multifaceted presidency of Andrew Jackson, the seventh president of the United States. This compilation not only showcases Jackson's assertive rhetoric and visionary policies but also reflects the tumultuous political landscape of the early 19th century. The book is rich in historical context, offering insights into pivotal issues such as westward expansion, the Bank War, and the controversial Indian Removal Act, all conveyed through Jackson's passionate discourse and political correspondence. Andrew Jackson, a soldier and lawyer turned statesman, emerged as a controversial yet pivotal figure in American history. His presidency, marked by his populist approach and fierce opposition to established political elites, was shaped by his early life in the Carolinas, military triumphs, and his staunch belief in democracy. The collection serves as an essential primary source that allows readers to understand not only Jackson's leadership style and the doctrines he espoused but also the societal tensions that characterized his era. This compilation is highly recommended for history enthusiasts, scholars, and students alike, as it provides a foundational understanding of Jackson's presidency. By engaging with Jackson's own words, the reader gains a deeper appreciation for the complexities and ramifications of his decisions, as well as the broader implications for American democracy.

    The Tech Coup - How to Save...

    Under the cover of "innovation," technology companies have successfully resisted regulation and have even begun to seize power from governments themselves. Facial recognition firms track citizens for police surveillance. Cryptocurrency has wiped out the savings of millions and threatens the stability of the global financial system. Spyware companies sell intelligence tools to anyone who can afford them. This new reality—where unregulated technology has become a forceful instrument for autocrats worldwide—is terrible news for democracies and citizens. 
     
     
     
    In The Tech Coup, Marietje Schaake explains how technology companies crept into nearly every corner of our lives and our governments. She takes us beyond the headlines to high-stakes meetings with human rights defenders, business leaders, computer scientists, and politicians to show how technologies have gone from being heralded as utopian to undermining the pillars of our democracies. To reverse this existential power imbalance, Schaake outlines solutions to empower elected officials and citizens alike. Democratic leaders can—and must—resist the influence of corporate lobbying and reinvent themselves as dynamic, flexible guardians of our digital world. Schaake offers a frightening look at our modern tech-obsessed world—and a clear-eyed view of how democracies can build a better future before it is too late.
