When the army was sent to take control of Doaa's hometown, strict curfews, power outages, water shortages, air raids, and violence disrupted everyday life.

A decade after the cold war ended, policy makers and academics foresaw a new era of peace and prosperity, an era in which democracy and open trade would herald the "end of history." The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, sadly shattered these idyllic illusions, and John Mearsheimer's masterful new book explains why these harmonious visions remain utopian.

For those who could read between the lines, the censored news out of China was terrifying. But the president insisted there was nothing to worry about. Fortunately, we are still a nation of skeptics. Fortunately, there are those among us who study pandemics and are willing to look unflinchingly at worst-case scenarios.

Generations of children have fallen in love with the pioneer saga of the Ingalls family, of Pa and Ma, Laura and her sisters, and their loyal dog. Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books have taught millions of Americans about frontier life, giving inspiration to many and in the process becoming icons of our national identity. Yet few realize that this best-selling series wandered far from the actual history of the Ingalls family and from what Laura herself understood to be central truths about pioneer life.

Whistleblowers pay with their lives to save ours. When insiders like former NSA analyst Edward Snowden, ex-FBI agent Coleen Rowley, or Big Tobacco truth-teller Jeffrey Wigand blow the whistle on high-level lying, lawbreaking or other wrongdoing - whether it's government spying, corporate murder, or scientific scandal - the public benefits enormously. Wars are ended, deadly products are taken off the market, white-collar criminals are sent to jail. The whistleblowers themselves, however, generally end up ruined.

Returning Marx to the Victorian confines of the 19th century, Jonathan Sperber, one of the United States' leading European historians, challenges many of our misconceptions of this political firebrand turned London journalist. In this deeply humanizing portrait, Marx no longer is the Olympian soothsayer, divining the dialectical imperatives of human history, but a scholar-activist whose revolutionary Weltanschauung was closer to Robespierre's than to those of 20th-century Marxists.

In Empire of Liberty, one of America's most esteemed historians, Gordon S. Wood, offers a brilliant account of the early American Republic, ranging from 1789 and the beginning of the national government to the end of the War of 1812. As Wood reveals, the period was marked by tumultuous change in all aspects of American life - in politics, society, economy, and culture.

この世界で起きるすべての出来事は、自分と無関係じゃない。 このシリーズでは、森羅万象をテーマに石田衣良と、ご存知『池袋ウエストゲートパーク』の主人公真島マコトが、普段から考えていること、感じていることを、誠実に自己検閲なしで語ります。 ■石田衣良の視点　世代間ウォーズ　 ＥＵ離脱を決定したイギリスの国民投票から、約３週間。 日本でも参議院の選挙がおこなわれた。こちらのトピックは選挙年齢が18歳まで 引き下げられたこと。思いだしてみれば、イギリスの国民投票は若者たちが圧倒 的なＥＵ残留派。対して60代以降の熟年層が同じく圧倒的な離脱派と、はっきり 二手に分かれた。 世代間ウォーズの様相を決定的にあらわにしていたのだ。それぞれ２対１の得票 差だったという。（本文より） 石田衣良ブックトーク『小説家と過ごす日曜日』はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ishidaira.html

2010年ぐらいから、「若者の〇〇離れ」という分析記事が目立ってきた。当時の趣旨は、「家や車が売れない！ 日本経済どうすんだ！」って話だったのだが、ここ5年の間で大震災が起こり政権が交代し、最近はこの「モノが売れない話」も少しずつ論調が変わってきたように思える。 要するに資本主義社会が限界にきてるんじゃないか、もうちょっと正確に言うと、いくら若者の消費を焚きつけても昭和50年代から平成1桁ぐらいまでの経済成長水準に戻ることはもう不可能なので、じゃあこの先の社会どうしようか、という話に主眼が移ってきたということである。あと5年10年で資本主義から脱却しようというわけではないが、50年ぐらいのスパンで考えたら、社会は新しい概念へ移行せざるをえないのだろうと思う。(本文より)小寺・西田の「金曜ランチビュッフェ」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/kode-nishi.html

Episodi di sangue, violenza e intrighi da cui emerge il potere devastante della camorra.

A landmark collection, spanning 90 years of U.S. history, of the never-before-published diaries of George F. Kennan, America’s most famous diplomat. On a hot July afternoon in 1953, George F. Kennan descended the steps of the State Department building as a newly retired man. His career had been tumultuous: early postings in eastern Europe followed by Berlin in 1940-41 and Moscow in the last year of World War II. In 1946, the 42-year-old Kennan authored the "Long Telegram", a 5,500-word indictment of the Kremlin that became mandatory reading in Washington.

The Occupy movement and the protests that inspired it have focused new attention on the work of Mahatma Gandhi, who set out principles of nonviolent resistance during the struggle for Indian Independence, principles that found their echo in Tahrir Square, Puerta del Sol and Zuccotti Park some half a century later.

One of the most vexing human rights issues of our time has been how to protect the rights of individuals and communities worldwide in an age of globalization and multinational business. Indeed, from Indonesian sweatshops to oil-based violence in Nigeria, the challenges of regulating harmful corporate practices in some of the world’s most difficult regions long seemed insurmountable. Human rights groups and businesses were locked in a stalemate, unable to find common ground. In 2005, the United Nations appointed John Gerard Ruggie to the modest task of clarifying the main issues.
