The Arab Spring promised to end dictatorship and bring self-government to people across the Middle East. Yet everywhere except Tunisia it led to either renewed dictatorship, civil war, extremist terror, or all three. In The Arab Winter, Noah Feldman argues that the Arab Spring was nevertheless not an unmitigated failure, much less an inevitable one. Rather, it was a noble, tragic series of events in which, for the first time in recent Middle Eastern history, Arabic-speaking peoples took free, collective political action as they sought to achieve self-determination.

Many people talk about Donald Trump. Some people love him, and some people hate him. Some people try to explain why people love or hate Trump. Despite the copious conversation and plenteous explanations, there’s a lack of clarity about why people support Trump. Neither academia nor the political pundits can adequately explain the phenomenon that is Trump.

President Trump repeatedly declared that under his leadership the United States had finally become a great nation—free and democratic—while before him everything was in terrible shape. Yet his successor, President Biden, said exactly the same thing, only in the opposite sense.

Written in plain English, this book explains the major political ideologies without slogans, tribalism, or academic jargon. It focuses on what these belief systems actually say about power, markets, government, and human behavior, not how they are marketed in modern politics.

Donald Trump ha ricostruito a propria immagine il Partito repubblicano lanciando un movimento popolare eterogeneo con il cappellino rosso MAGA in testa, grazie alle sue doti carismatiche e sfruttando risentimenti e complotti. La razionalità del discorso politico non gli appartiene, anzi, ha fatto dell'anti-intellettualismo una bandiera. Dietro l'apparente caos del Trump-pensiero, però, si è aggregato un movimento molto più strutturato di quanto si creda: una galassia di intellettuali, attivisti e politici che ha elaborato una critica radicale alla democrazia liberale americana.
