Discover the remarkable history of the Nuremberg Trials...In 1933, the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, triumphant after the July 1932 elections, was the largest political party in Germany. The Nazis quickly banned all other political parties and proceeded to implement the policies which aroused the anti-Semitic sentiment of the German people. When the Allied Powers joined forces to fight the Nazis, they were determined to bring the German leaders to justice in an international court where they would be tried for their war crimes.

As white supremacy, ultra-nationalism, rabid misogyny, and anti-immigrant fervor coalesce, a new and uniquely American form of fascism looms. Could our current moment actually bring about the end of democracy in the United States? Are Americans willing to surrender their freedom and dignity, along with their ongoing struggle for equality, justice, and mutual respect in the face of the rising tide of political and ideological extremism?

The Napoleonic Wars radically altered the old, established European power dynamics, and in 1795, the British, now emerging as the globe’s naval superpower, assumed control of the Cape as part of the spoils of war. In doing so, they recognized the enormous strategic value of the Cape as global shipping routes were developing and expanding. Possession passed back and forth once or twice, but more or less from that point onward, the British established their presence at the Cape, which they held until the unification of South Africa in 1910.

The first Thanksgiving at Plymouth in 1621 was a powerfully symbolic event and not merely the pageant of abundance that we still reenact today. In these early encounters between Indians and English in North America, food was also symbolic of power: The venison brought to Plymouth by the Indians, for example, was resonant of both masculine skill with weapons and the status of the men who offered it. These meanings were clearly understood by Plymouth's leaders, however weak they appeared in comparison.

1947 में भारत का विभाजन बीसवीं सदी की सबसे दुखांत घटना थी, जिसके ज़ख्म अभी तक नहीं भरे।

In a rich and riveting narrative, Jane Dunn reveals the extraordinary rivalry between the regal cousins. It is the story of two queens ruling on one island, each with a claim to the throne of England, each embodying dramatically opposing qualities of character, ideals of womanliness (and views of sexuality), and divinely ordained kingship.

Utopia for Realists is one of those rare books that takes you by surprise and challenges what you think can happen. From a Canadian city that once completely eradicated poverty to Richard Nixon's near implementation of a basic income for millions of Americans, Bregman takes us on a journey through history and beyond the traditional left-right divides as he champions ideas whose time has come.

Conservative talk radio's fastest-growing superstar is also a New York Times best-selling phenomenon: the author of the groundbreaking critique of the Supreme Court, Men in Black, and the deeply personal dog lover's memoir Rescuing Sprite, Mark R. Levin now delivers the book that characterizes both his devotion to his more than 5 million listeners and his love of our country and the legacy of our Founding Fathers.

Glen Beck, the number-one New York Times best-selling author and popular radio and television host, revisits Thomas Paine's Common Sense with one purpose: to galvanize Americans to see past government's easy solutions, two-part monopoly, and illogical methods, and take back our great country.

Sulla volta del Teatro Goldoni domina Marx. Sopra il suo ritratto, lo striscione: "Proletari di tutti i Paesi unitevi!". Il diciassettesimo Congresso del Partito socialista italiano si apre a Livorno il 15 gennaio 1921 e, dopo una settimana drammatica, si chiuderà con la scissione e la nascita del Partito comunista d'Italia. In una cronaca politica animata dalle voci di protagonisti epici - da Terracini a Turati, da Serrati a Bordiga, a Gramsci defilato e silenzioso - viene qui ricostruito un evento epocale, animato da ideali altissimi di riscatto sociale.

"Virtù contro a furore prenderà l'armi, e fia el combatter corto, che l'antico valor negli italici cor non è ancora morto." Nella vivida interpretazione di Enzo Decaro, il classico della dottrina politica italiana rivive grazie alla trasposizione dall'italiano antico di Paola Giovetti e alle ambientazioni sonore di Riccardo Cimino. "Coloro che desiderano acquistare meriti presso un principe sono soliti presentarsi a lui con le cose che sanno essergli più care, per cui si vede che molte volte gli sono presentati cavalli, armi, drappi d'oro, pietre preziose e simili ornamenti.

Como sociedad, estamos olvidando que casi todos los sucesos extraordinarios que han tenido lugar en la historia los han llevado a cabo personas que creían en los valores judeocristianos y en el poder de la razón nacido en la Grecia clásica. Estas ideas pueden resumirse en dos nociones relacionadas. La primera, que todos los humanos están hechos a imagen de Dios y la segunda, que los humanos nacen con una capacidad de razonar que les permite explorar el mundo.

Die Kunst des Krieges mag ein sehr altes Werk sein, doch seine Beobachtungen und Schlüsse sind auch heute noch anwendbar. Kein Wunder, dass das Büchlein zu den meistgelesenen Werken der Business-Literatur zählt!

In "La stella nera", Gary Lachman offre una panoramica sulle radici dei movimenti di pensiero occulto che hanno dato forma al fenomeno Trump (dal pensiero positivo al New Thought, dal Tradizionalismo di Guénon ed Evola, a oscuri personaggi dell'esoterismo francese). I principali protagonisti della politica internazionale esprimono, secondo Lachman, una visione del mondo che ha molto a che fare con la "magia", intesa come capacità di alterare il reale attraverso l'immaginazione o l'uso dei simboli della memetica su internet.

La vita della sezione e i suoi tipi umani, la diffusione militante dell'Unità, il rito del congresso, i vezzi e la retorica del dibattito politico. Una nostalgia ragionata del Partito comunista italiano e lo spietato contrappunto con la sinistra di oggi. Attraverso storie, personaggi, aneddoti divertenti, Novelli smonta le false verità sul partito scomparso nel 1991, ma non chiude gli occhi davanti alle questioni critiche, prima fra tutte il rapporto con l'Unione Sovietica e i paesi del socialismo reale.

John Kampfner ist Brite und zeigt, wie sehr sich das Deutschland-Bild im Ausland in den letzten Jahren verändert hat. Die deutsche Krisenpolitik hält er für Weltklasse: Corona-Bekämpfung, Finanzkrise, Flüchtlingskrise - kein Land navigiere so erfolgreich und souverän durch schwierige Zeiten wie Deutschland. Während anderswo autoritäre Politiker und Populisten regieren, sei Deutschland ein Bollwerk aus Anstand und Stabilität.

For more than six decades, Fidel Castro's words have echoed through the politics of Latin America. His towering political influence still looms over the region today. The swing to the Left in Latin America, known as the 'Pink Tide', was the most important political movement in the Western Hemisphere in the 21st century. It involved some of the biggest, most colourful and most controversial characters in Latin America for decades, leaders who would leave an indelible mark on their nations and who were adored and reviled in equal measure.

In American Awakening, Joshua Mitchell compares today’s secular politics of identity - skin tone, gender, and sexuality - to the religious awakenings of America’s past. The book asks where the clerisy of identity politics came from, how identity politics claimed a death grip on liberalism, and how can it be defeated.
