Sinopsis

A Constitution in Making (1660-1714) is a compelling collection that meticulously chronicles a pivotal period in British constitutional history, capturing the transformative years following the Restoration through to the early 18th century. This anthology presents an intricate tapestry of legal documents, letters, and treatises, illustrating the evolving dialogue around governance, sovereignty, and civil rights. The text employs a scholarly yet accessible prose style, allowing readers to engage with the complexities of the era while situating the discussions within the broader historical and political landscape of emergent modernity. The contributors to this volume are drawn from diverse academic backgrounds, each bringing unique perspectives that illuminate the motivations behind the constitution-making efforts of the time. The tumultuous political climate marked by the English Civil War, the Restoration of the monarchy, and the Glorious Revolution shaped these thinkers, whose reflections on authority, representation, and liberty resonate strongly in contemporary discussions surrounding constitutional law. This essential reading is recommended for both scholars and general readers interested in understanding the roots of modern democratic thought. A Constitution in Making sheds light on the foundational ideas that continue to influence governance today, making it a significant addition to political and legal scholarship.

    The Authoritarian Moment - How...

    New York Times Bestseller 
    How far are Americans willing to go to force each other to fall in line? 
    According to the establishment media, the intelligentsia, and our political chattering class, the greatest threat to American freedom lies in right-wing authoritarianism. We’ve heard that some 75 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump represent the rise of American fascism; that conservatives have allowed authoritarianism to bloom in their midst, creating a grave danger for the republic. 
    But what if the true authoritarian threat to America doesn’t come from the political right, but from the supposedly anti-fascist left? 
    There are certainly totalitarians on the political right. But statistically, they represent a fringe movement with little institutional clout. The authoritarian left, meanwhile, is ascendant in nearly every area of American life. A small number of leftists—college-educated, coastal, and uncompromising—have not just taken over the Democratic Party but our corporations, our universities, our scientific establishment, our cultural institutions. And they have used their newfound power to silence their opposition. 
    The authoritarian Left is aggressively insistent that everyone must conform to its values, demanding submission and conformity. The dogmatic Left is obsessed with putting people in categories and changing human nature. Everyone who opposes it must be destroyed. 
    Ben Shapiro looks at everything from pop culture to the Frankfurt school, social media to the Founding Fathers, to explain the origins of our turn to tyranny, and why so many seem blind to it. 
    More than a catalog of bad actors and intemperate acts, The Authoritarian Moment lays bare the intolerance and rigidity creeping into all American ideology – and prescribes the solution to ending the authoritarianism that threatens our future.
