In 1991, the smoldering ruins of Saddam Hussein’s regime testified to America’s unchallenged might. Having defeated one of the world’s largest armies in a matter of days, the United States looked forward to a new century of peace and prosperity. Thirty years later, a ragtag Taliban chased us out of Afghanistan in a humiliating rout. At home, our cities are cesspools of homelessness and crime. The former land of opportunity seems to be in irreversible decline.

In 1955, Katharine Clark, the first American woman wire reporter behind the Iron Curtain, saw something none of her male colleagues did. What followed became one of the most unusual adventure stories of the Cold War. While on assignment in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, Clark befriended a man who, by many definitions, was her enemy. But she saw something in Milovan Djilas, a high-ranking Communist leader who dared to question the ideology he helped establish, that made her want to work with him. It became the assignment of her life.

Lauren Boebert is the gun-toting Republican Congresswoman from Rifle, Colorado, who overcame difficult life circumstances to be a leading voice for personal freedom and our 2nd Amendment rights. Raised on welfare in a Democrat household, young Lauren learned from her first job at McDonald’s that she could provide for herself better than the government ever could. My American Life describes in vivid detail why Lauren dropped out of high school, the success of Shooters Grill, and how she came to be a United States Congresswoman.

The Republican Party must return to its roots as a progressive conservative party that defends the American Dream, the idea that whoever you are you can get ahead and know that your children will have it better than you did. It must show how the Democrats have become the party of inequality and immobility and that they created what structural racism exists through their unjust education, immigration, and job-killing policies.

Bestselling author and former Speaker Newt Gingrich reveals how Big Government Socialism is crippling America—and offers strategies and insights for everyday citizens to overcome its influence.

Most citizens are well aware that the world is run rather badly by those in power—the politicians—who are in many cases democratically elected. Time and time again democracy fails to protect the ordinary citizen and exhibits dangerous and damaging flaws. Yet, it is often held up as the model of how best to govern. This pamphlet presents arguments that highlight exactly why democracy just isn’t very good and is no more than the best of a bad bunch of options. However, this pamphlet also contains hope. It expresses the belief that there is a vastly better way to run the world.

Die Rechte und die autoritären Aspirationen mancher Politiker und Regierenden machen uns wieder Angst—die Geschichte darf sich doch nicht wiederholen. Die Linken müssen sich neu aufstellen, müssen kämpfen, damit es in unseren globalisierten Gesellschaften ein Gleichgewicht der verschiedenen Kräfte und Denkweisen gibt. Dabei dürfen sie ihre Wurzeln nicht vergessen—erwachsen aus der Dialektik der Aufklärung besitzen die Linken die stärkste Waffe, die sie progressiv einsetzen können: die Utopie. Nur mit einer Utopie im Gepäck kann die Linke getrost in die Zukunft schauen.

In 1942, in its rush to assemble a force of seven million to take on the Axis powers, the Army discovered it had inducted some iffy patriots. Unsure of what to do with them, the Army put them all into a misfit company: the 620th Engineer General Service Company. Seething, they considered disobedience, desertion, and, ultimately, a plan to sabotage the war effort. That’s when Dale Maple and two German POWs deserted. Their plans: get to Germany and persuade the government to supply money and materials for guerilla war on US soil. That’s when their fates took an only-in-America turn.

The political philosopher Ryan T. Anderson, bestselling author of When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment, teams up with the pro-life journalist Alexandra DeSanctis to expose the catastrophic failure—social, political, legal, and personal—of legalized abortion.

El siglo XX se erige como la edad de las ideas, un tiempo en el que, para bien o para mal, el pensamiento de unos pocos se impuso sobre las vidas de muchos. De una claridad y lucidez sin precedentes, el último libro de Tony Judt, uno de los más incisivos historiadores contemporáneos, está destinado a convertirse en un clásico del pensamiento moderno.

On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine under the guise of a special military training operation. This invasion marked the most aggressive resurgence of aggression from Russia since the onset of the Russo-Ukrainian War in 2014. Before addressing this 2022 war, though, it is important to understand what sparked tensions in 2014, and why this is important to the current actions of Russia within Ukraine.

Eine essentielle Fibel über Kapitalismus, Politik und die Funktionsweise der Welt, basierend auf der sehr beliebten Vorlesungsreihe "Was ist Politik?" Gibt es eine Alternative zum Kapitalismus? In diesem bahnbrechenden Text zeichnen Chomsky und Waterstone eine kritische Landkarte für eine gerechtere und nachhaltigere Gesellschaft.

Fascismo e Democracia reúne exemplos magníficos da escrita de Orwell durante os dias mais sombrios da Segunda Guerra Mundial. Abraçando os princípios da democracia e as potencialidades reformadoras, o significado da literatura e da liberdade de expressão em tempos de violência e a sustentabilidade da verdade objetiva, Orwell oferece um retrato convincente de uma nação onde normas e ideais não podem mais ser considerados garantidos. Assim como o melhor da escrita de Orwell, estes ensaios também servem como lembretes intemporais da fragilidade da liberdade.

Mary Ellen Pleasant and William Henry Ellis. What do these two have in common? They were both former slaves who became millionaires. Back then, Black entrepreneurs had to worry about slave catchers and lynch mobs. Today, “microaggressions” are enough to discourage young Blacks...according to liberals. Our ancestors would be ashamed of us. They would expect more of us. Black Snowflakes provides a brand-new perspective for those Americans who still believe it is impossible for Blacks to be successful unless they get that “White man’s stamp of approval”.

Russia's relationship with its neighbors and with the West has worsened dramatically in recent years. Under Vladimir Putin's leadership, the country has annexed Crimea, begun a war in Eastern Ukraine, used chemical weapons on the streets of the UK, and created an army of Internet trolls to meddle in the US presidential elections. How can we understand this apparent relapse into aggressive imperialism and militarism?

Imperier reser sig, går ner, och faller. Historien har bevittnat denna cykel med romarna, ottomanerna, och britterna. De har alla störtats, och om vi inte är försiktiga kommer USA att bli näst.

For the last several years, we’ve watched as woke political activists have staged destructive protests, destroyed businesses, hurled accusations of racism and white supremacy around as if those terms mean nothing, and publicly bullied and canceled anyone who disagrees with them.

Wieso erdulden es Menschen, Hunderte, Tausende, Millionen, dass es einen einzigen Tyrannen gibt, der nur soviel Macht, als sie ihm verleihen? Sie akzeptieren dieses Schicksal freiwillig, erklärt de la Boétie. Ein noch heute absolut hörenswertes Werk aus der Renaissance.

Born into dire poverty in the segregated South and abandoned by his father as a child, Justice Clarence Thomas triumphed over seemingly insurmountable odds to become one of the most influential justices on the Supreme Court. Yet after three decades of honorable service, few know him beyond his contentious confirmation and the surrounding media firestorm. Who is Justice Clarence Thomas, in his own words? Created Equal builds on dozens of hours of groundbreaking one-on-one interviews with Thomas to share a new, expanded account of his powerful story for the first time.

Much of the attention paid to Trump's rise to power has focused on his corrosive personality and divisive style of governing. But he alone is not the problem. The vulnerability is much broader and deeper. The ascendance of Trump is the culmination of nearly 250 years of political reforms that gradually ceded party nominations to small cliques of ideologically motivated party activists, interest groups, and donors. Author Lawrence Jacobs provides a highly engaging history of political reforms since the late-eighteenth century that over time dangerously weakened democracy.
