Craig Shirley relays intriguing, never-before-told anecdotes about Reagan, his staff, the campaign, the media, and the national parties and shows how Reagan, instead of following the lead of the ever-weakening Republican party, brought the party to him and almost single-handedly revived it.

En el Estado de México, los partidos políticos ya están ensayando sus buenas y sus malas artes para atraer votantes, están sometiendo a prueba máxima la capacidad del árbitro electoral, emplean todos sus recursos intentando seducir a la hidra mediática y han desatado rudísimos rounds de sombra en la entidad con el mayor padrón electoral. Saben que quien impere en estas elecciones habrá dado un paso de oro rumbo a Palacio Nacional.

Sí podía saberse lo que iba a ocurrir si Andrés Manuel López Obrador llegaba a la Presidencia. Bastaba observar, poner atención, seguir los pasos que fue dando desde sus orígenes como soldado priista. Eso es justamente lo que ha hecho Pablo Hiriart desde hace 34 años: señalar y documentar cada una de las afrentas que la democracia mexicana ha soportado a manos del fundador de Morena.

Strategic litigation against public participation (SLAPP) involves lawsuits brought by individuals, corporations, groups, or politicians to curtail political activism and expression.

In this critical analysis, Dr. Daniel B. Brubaker explores why Republicans have had difficulty distinguishing fact from fiction and why many party leaders continue to spin conspiracy theories and lies. He examines the neuropsychological development of toddlers and explains why and how some Republicans are acting like children. He concludes some leaders in the Republican Party have antisocial personality disorders.

En estas páginas se asoman las profundas divisiones dentro del gremio periodístico, la servidumbre voluntaria, el espionaje o la vigilancia a la que ha sido sometido, su precariedad laboral y no pocas dificultades o conflictos para obtener información. Prensa inmunda es también un repaso por la compleja historia de la prensa mexicana, desde aquellos años de control total de la información hasta nuestros días, con una relación tirante como la que AMLO ha establecido con los medios.

Guillermo Rivera fue el último ministro del Interior del gobierno de Juan Manuel Santos y a quien le correspondió la ardua tarea de mover las arenas políticas tras la derrota del plebiscito por la paz que, por un margen muy corto, perdieron los promotores del acuerdo de La Habana que le puso fin a una guerra de sesenta años con la guerrilla más antigua de América Latina.

Elected officials answer to public employees. Basic tools of good government have been eliminated. There's no accountability, detailed union entitlements make government largely unmanageable and unaffordable, and public policies are driven by what is good for public employees, not what is good for the public. Public unions keep it that way by brute political force—harnessing the huge cohort of public employees into a political force dedicated to preventing the reform of government. The solution, Howard argues, is not political but constitutional.

The Bharatiya Janata Party is an idea that was seeded into the minds of nationalist Jana Sangh leaders when they began to envision India after Independence. Much like the very core the freedom struggle was built on, they saw India as a demographically, culturally and historically cohesive and unified nation—as Bharat.

"Io sono solo, Rachele, e vedo che tutto è finito." Così Mussolini nell'ultima telefonata alla moglie, a poche ore dall'arresto e dalla morte. "L'Ucraina non esiste" disse Putin. "E, se esiste, è una colonia russa." "Mario, che fai? Mi lasci sola?" Giorgia Meloni si aggrappò con una battuta a Mario Draghi che il 23 ottobre si congedava da Palazzo Chigi, dopo le consegne alla nuova padrona di casa. Sapeva quanto enorme fosse il compito affidatole dagli elettori in uno dei momenti più difficili del dopoguerra. Una "grande tempesta" che attraversa un secolo di storia italiana e internazionale.

México cambió en 1994. Las nuevas generacio­nes lo han escuchado como si se tratase de una leyenda urbana, pero para los millones de fami­lias que vivieron la devaluación del peso y la turbulencia económica de la década de los noventa, es una etapa que no se olvidará.

When Donald Trump announced his campaign for president in 2015, journalists, historians, and politicians alike attempted to compare his candidacy to that of Governor George Wallace. Like Trump, Wallace, who launched four presidential campaigns between 1964 and 1976, utilized rhetoric based in resentment, nationalism, and anger to sway and eventually captivate voters among America’s white majority. Though separated by almost half a century, the campaigns of both Wallace and Trump broke new grounds for political partisanship and divisiveness.

This is a story about the history of the Democrat Party, specifically about how bad and dangerous their policies have been. It also details how a few select RINOs (Republicans in name only) helped the Democrats by lacking the spine and will to stand up to them and fight for what is right for the American people.

In this classic of political and social psychology, Joost Meerloo attempts to account for the mechanisms of mind that have made the brainwashing techniques of totalitarian states so historically successful. His frightening conclusion, that "hardly anyone can resist," appeals to mechanisms undergirding human thought, many of which are not obviously available to individuals.

Though people frequently use mobile technologies for news consumption, evidence from several fields shows that smaller screens and slower connection speeds pose major limitations for meaningful reading. In News and Democratic Citizens in the Mobile Era, Johanna Dunaway and Kathleen Searles demonstrate the effects of mobile devices on news attention, engagement, and recall, and identify a key cognitive mechanism underlying these effects: cognitive effort.

Until recently, propaganda was a top-down, elite-only system of communication control used largely by state actors. Today, as Samuel Woolley argues, social media has democratized propaganda, allowing nearly anyone to launch a fairly sophisticated, computationally enhanced, propaganda campaign. Woolley shows how social media, with its anonymity and capacity for automation, allows political groups to create the illusion of popularity through computational tools.

On 14 June 2017, a 24-storey block of flats went up in flames. The fire climbed up cladding as flammable as solid petrol. Fire doors failed to self-close. No alarm rang out to warn sleeping residents. As smoke seeped into their homes, all were told to ‘stay put'. Many did–and they died. It was a disaster decades in the making. Peter Apps exposes how a steady stream of deregulation, corporate greed and institutional indifference caused this tragedy. It is the story of a grieving community forsaken by our government, a community still waiting for change.

When the Founding Fathers drafted our Constitution, they had no idea there would be a “Big Tech”–nor any concept of the immense power these companies would wield over our people. But the Fathers did provide mechanisms—a system of check and balances—for the people to stop dangerous monopolies like Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon from suffocating our business and political life. Few know more about these mechanisms than Rep. Ken Buck, who has been a leader in Congress fighting against the unchecked power of Big Tech.

Just as the COVID-19 pandemic was coming to an end, everyone began to take a breath of relief. The world was finally at peace and could return to normal. This breath was cut short by Vladimir Putin spearheading the campaign and invasion of Ukraine. This left millions of people, media outlets, and the world dumbstruck.

In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by the author, Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan reveals how Islamophobia not only lives under the skin of those who it marks, but is an international political project designed to divide people in the name of security, in order to materially benefit global stakeholders.

The Propagandists' Playbook peels back the layers of the right-wing media manipulation machine to reveal why its strategies are so effective and pervasive, while also humanizing the people whose worldviews and media practices conservatism embodies.

Texas is a solid red state. Or trending purple. Or soon to be blue. One thing is certain: As Texas looms ever larger in national politics, the makeup of its electorate increasingly matters. At a critical moment, as migration, immigration, and a maturing populace alter the state’s political landscape, this book presents a deeply researched, data-rich look at who Texas voters are, what they want, and what it might mean for the future of the Republican and Democratic parties, the state, and the nation.

‘We will not achieve net zero in the cafes, dinner parties and wine bars of our inner cities.’ Little infuriated the forgotten people of the twenty-first century—women and younger voters, especially—more than Scott Morrison’s deluge of disparagement on the issues that mattered to them. The May 2022 election marked the great re-engagement of those ignored and patronised for too long on climate, integrity and gender equity.
