Описание: Focusing on I Am Legend and Day of the Dead, this book addresses the social origins of the recent surge in authoritarian and populist social movements, exploring how themes of tribalism, confidence in medical science, and confidence in military violence are reflected in elements of contemporary authoritarian populism.
This volume is an important contribution to our understanding of global pandemics in general and Covid-19 in particular. It brings together the reflections of leading social and political scientists who are interested in the implications and significance of the current crisis for politics and society.
The chapters provide both analysis of the social and political dimensions of the Coronavirus pandemic and historical contextualization as well as perspectives beyond the crisis. The volume seeks to focus on Covid-19 not simply as the terrain of epidemiology or public health, but as raising fundamental questions about the nature of social, economic and political processes. The problems of contemporary societies have become intensified as a result of the pandemic. Understanding the pandemic is as much a sociological question as it is a biological one, since viral infections are transmitted through social interaction. In many ways, the pandemic poses fundamental existential as well as political questions about social life as well as exposing many of the inequalities in contemporary societies. As the chapters in this volume show, epidemiological issues and sociological problems are elucidated in many ways around the themes of power, politics, security, suffering, equality and justice.
This is a cutting edge and accessible volume on the Covid-19 pandemic with chapters on topics such as the nature and limits of expertise, democratization, emergency government, digitalization, social justice, globalization, capitalist crisis, and the ecological crisis.

An invaluable guide to President Trump's comments and quotes on various subjects.
No president in history of the United States has been as prolific as President Trump in letting the public know his thoughts. Most of us know about the President's fondness for tweeting, but he has also been very forthcoming in speeches and interviews. Even more content has been written about him, both from his fans and his detractors. And despite his responses and tweets on various subjects being publicly available, he is often misrepresented by both sides.
This volume deals with the following subjects::
China/Tariff/Trade
Economy/Jobs/NAFTA
Immigration/Borders
Intelligence Agencies/Justice System
Mexico
Middle East
NATO/Allies/Europe
North Korea
Terrorism and 9/11
Veterans
The World According to Trump is a direct compilation of his tweets, speeches, interviews etc., sorted by subject matter. Forget all that is said about him...this is President Trump, describing how he sees the world in his own words.
We have attempted to include all tweets and other direct quotes for the subject matters discussed, however clear repetitions have not been included due to the sheer volume of material available. Attributions which could not be clearly sourced have not been used, and every quote or tweet is clearly labelled with the source and date.
Despite eliminating repetitions, the volume of data has required us to break the book into two manageable volumes. Each volume concentrates on certain subject areas from the time of his election through 2019.
These two volumes are the definitive source for finding out what Trump believes on numerous topics, conveniently sorted by subject matter. All in his own words, without any embellishments, extraneous comments or editorializations.
Описание: Can Justice Department officials effectively investigate wrongdoing within their own administration without relying on an independent counsel? In Prosecution among Friends political scientist David Alistair Yalof explores the operation of due process as it is navigated within the office of the attorney general and its various subdivisions.
Описание: Examines presidential speeches over the course of six administrations. Editors Michael Nelson and Russell Riley have brought together an outstanding team of academics and professional writers-including nine former speechwriters who worked for every president from Nixon to Clinton-to examine how the politics and crafting of presidential rhetoric serve the various roles of the presidency.
Описание: Within eight turbulent months in 1974 Gerald Ford went from the United States House of Representatives, where he was the minority leader, to the White House as the country’s first and only unelected president. His unprecedented rise to power, after Richard Nixon’s equally unprecedented fall, has garnered the lion’s share of scholarly attention devoted to America’s thirty-eighth president. But Gerald Ford’s (1913–2006) life and career in and out of Washington spanned nearly the entire twentieth century. Ambition, Pragmatism, and Party captures for the first time the full scope of Ford’s long and remarkable political life.The man who emerges from these pages is keenly ambitious, determined to climb the political ladder in Washington, and loyal to his party but not a political ideologue. Drawing on interviews with family and congressional and administrative officials, presidential historian Scott Kaufman traces Ford’s path from a Depression-era childhood through service in World War II to entry into Congress shortly after the Cold War began. He delves deeply into the workings of Congress and legislative–executive relations, offering insight into Ford’s role as the House minority leader in a time of conservative insurgency in the Republican Party.Kaufman’s account of the Ford presidency provides a new perspective on how human rights figured in the making of U.S. foreign policy in the Cold War era, and how environmental issues figured in the making of domestic policy. It also presents a close look at the 1976 presidential election—emphasizing the significance of image in that contest—and extensive coverage of Ford’s post-presidency. In sum, Ambition, Pragmatism, and Party is the most comprehensive political biography of Gerald Ford and will become the definitive resource on the thirty-eighth president of the United States.
