Wer die Welt gestalten will, muss über Macht sprechen: Aufruf für ein neues Politikverständnis. Klima-Krise, Krieg, Rechtspopulismus – es ist anstrengend geworden, sich mit Politik zu beschäftigen. Die politischen Herausforderungen auf nationaler und internationaler Ebene sind so zahlreich, dass konstruktive Lösungen aus dem Blick geraten. Denn auf die Aggressionen Russlands und Chinas findet der Westen keine langfristigen Antworten, die Klima-Krise verschärft sich, und die alte internationale Ordnung insgesamt weist immer mehr Risse auf.

How powerful is the President of the United States? For many scholars, this is a question that can be answered only by considering factors outside the office itself, such as the president's popularity, personal clout, political talents, or institutional relationships. In The Isolated Presidency, Jordan T. Cash reframes this question to instead ask what authority is available to all presidents.

Am 7. Dezember 2022 rückten mehr als 3 000 Polizisten zur wohl größten Anti-Terror-Razzia in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik aus. Sie verhafteten die Rädelsführer einer Gruppe aus dem Reichsbürgermilieu, die einen gewaltsamen Umsturz der Regierung geplant hatte. Wer aber sind diese Reichsbürger, die die Bundesrepublik Deutschland nicht als legitimen Staat anerkennen, von einer BRD GmbH fabulieren und sich immer noch im Deutschen Reich wähnen?

For centuries, British identity has been shaped by ideas of exceptionalism, grandeur and competence. Yet British democracy is failing. Governments supported by a minority of voters are elected with enormous majorities under a deeply unrepresentative first-past-the-post system. The result has been failed leaders delivering wounding blows to the country's economy, prosperity and international image. Britain Is Better Than This explores what lies beneath this sense of malaise, revealing the structural and constitutional failures at the heart of a sclerotic political system.

Few figures in American politics have seen more and said less than Mitt Romney. An outspoken dissident in Donald Trump’s GOP, he has made headlines in recent years for standing alone against the forces he believes are poisoning the party he once led. Romney was the first senator in history to vote to remove from office a president of his own party. When that president’s supporters went on to storm the US Capitol, Romney delivered a thundering speech from the Senate floor accusing his fellow Republicans of stoking insurrection.

Inspired by her research for the hit podcast Ultra, Rachel Maddow charts the rise of a wild American strain of authoritarianism that has been alive on the far-right edge of our politics for the better part of a century. Before and even after our troops had begun fighting abroad in World War II, a clandestine network flooded the country with disinformation aimed at sapping the strength of the U.S. war effort and persuading Americans that our natural alliance was with the Axis, not against it.

Demokratie und Rechtsstaat sind bedroht: durch Autokraten wie Putin von außen, die fürchten, auch für sie könnte das Streben der Bevölkerung nach politischer Selbstbestimmung gefährlich werden; durch Autokraten im Inneren, die auf einer Welle populistischer Erregung ins Amt kommen und den Rechtsstaat aushöhlen; durch eine lethargische und politisch gleichgültige Bürgerschaft, die zwar seit längerem in einer Demokratie angelangt ist, sich nun aber an dieser langweilt und nicht mehr engagiert. Die Welle der Demokratisierung, die 1989 losgebrochen ist, ist verebbt. Inzwischen gibt es weltweit wieder mehr autokratische Regime als Demokratien.

2024 marks the centenary of the first Labour government under Ramsay MacDonald. What legacy of the past have they left behind? How far has each Labour administration influenced succeeding administrations? Above all, was the Attlee government of 1945 really the golden period of Labour power?

Frédéric Bastiat uważany jest za jednego z prekursorów austriackiej szkoły ekonomii. W swoich pracach za pośrednictwem prostych do zrozumienia przykładów analizował i krytykował poglądy socjalistów oraz społecznie szkodliwe mechanizmy funkcjonowania gospodarki. Publikacja "Rząd" skupia się na zdefiniowaniu oraz wyjaśnieniu sposobów działania tytułowego organu władzy. Nie brakuje w niej charakterystycznej dla Bastiata ironii i precyzyjnego wskazywania absurdów na stałe goszczących w systemie politycznym.

"Política e religião sempre andaram juntas: na Pré-história, na Antiguidade, desde sempre e até hoje, mesmo que sob formas não tão evidentes." "O cotidiano saturado de políticas permeadas pelas guerras culturais tem vocação beligerante contínua." "Seja lá o que for a ‘verdade’, ela nunca interessou à democracia na construção cotidiana do poder." "O homem comum não se preocupa muito com liberdade de expressão e troca facilmente qualquer regime por uma janta melhor. É um fetiche achar que o homem comum ama a democracia."

The Right to Rule is the full story of what has just happened in British politics, and how it has shaped Westminster and, by extension, the nation. Over the last decade, we have seen five different Conservative Prime Ministers, with five different missions and messages to the nation. Not for two centuries has such political turnover been seen. From the ashes of a financial crisis, to a break from the UK's biggest trading block, to a global pandemic, governments - and ideologies - have changed, but the Conservative party's power has remained.

Nichter upends the conventional understanding of the campaign.
