Sinn Féin is the most popular political party in both Northern Ireland and the Republic. A movement once synonymous with a paramilitary campaign is on the brink of taking real power through purely democratic means. But if Sinn Féin has mastered the art of electoral politics, it remains strangely opaque. Who really runs the party? How is it funded? And what can we expect of it as a party of government? Aoife Moore, Irish Journalist of the Year in 2021, explores these and other burning questions in The Long Game.

Drawing on original survey and experimental data, Berinsky shows that a tendency toward conspiratorial thinking and vehement partisan attachment fuel belief in rumors.

The Radical Mind is both a stark warning and a call to arms to protect the country from decline, ruin, and disgrace. It identifies the crisis facing the nation as a crisis of faith—faith in the Constitution that has shaped our destiny, faith in individual freedom and accountability, faith in the principle of equality before the law. At stake? Nothing less than the American way of life and the liberty and freedoms all Americans enjoy.

We all learned as children that the founders of our great country threw off the British tyrants in 1776.

Why are so many of us wrong about so much?

On January 6, 2021, hundreds of Americans stormed the Capitol to prevent the certification of their political opponent’s election. At the forefront were Christians claiming to act in the name of Jesus Christ and his supposed representative on earth, Donald Trump. How can this have happened? David P. Gushee tackles the question in this timely work of Christian political ethics. Gushee calls us to preserve democratic norms, including constitutional government, the rule of law, and equal rights for all, even as many Christians take a reactionary and antidemocratic stance.

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.

In this razor-sharp analysis of one of the most important issues facing us today, leading Harvard professors Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt draw on their combined expertise of over 40 years to offer a dire warning about right-wing efforts to undermine multiracial democracy. Exploring the 2024 American election and the Capitol riots, as well as global examples from history including post-1945 Germany and Brazil and Chile during the '60s and '70s, the authors show how ossified political conventions can be pernicious enablers of minority rule.
