The Emancipation of Writing: German Civil Society in the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McNeely, Ian F., PUBLISHER: University of California Press, "The Emancipation of Writing "is the first study of writing in its connection to bureaucracy, citizenship, and the state in Germany. Stitching together micro- and macro-level analysis, it reconstructs the vibrant, textually saturated civic culture of the German southwest in the aftermath of the French Revolution and Napoleon's invasions. Ian F. McNeely reveals that Germany's notoriously oppressive bureaucracy, when viewed through the writing practices that were its lifeblood, could also function as a site of citizenship. Citizens, acting under the mediation of powerful local scribes, practiced their freedoms in written engagements with the state. Their communications laid the basis for civil society, showing how social networks commonly associated with the free market, the free press, and the voluntary association could also take root in powerful state institutions.

How far did French egalitarianism extend in welcoming and disciplining nonwhite

The Nation in History: Historiographical Debates about

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, Anthony D., PUBLISHER: Polity Press, In this thought-provoking new book, Anthony Smith analyses key debates between historians and social scientists on the role of nations and nationalism in history. In a wide-ranging analysis of the work of historians, sociologists, political scientists and others, he argues that there are three key issues which have shaped debates in this field: first, the nature and origin of nations and nationalism; second, the antiquity or modernity of nations and nationalism; and third, the role of nations and nationalism in historical, and especially recent, social change. Anthony Smith provides an incisive critique of the debate between modernists, perennialists and primordialists over the origins, development and contemporary significance of nations and nationalism. Drawing on a wide range of examples from antiquity and the medieval epoch, as well as the modern world, he develops a distinctive ethnosymbolic account of nations and nationalism. This important book by one of the world's leading authorities on nationalism and ethnicity will be of particular interest to students and scholars in history, sociology and politics.

The Right Nation: Conservative Power in America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Micklethwait, John / Wooldridge, Adrian, PUBLISHER: Penguin Books, How, in a relatively short time, did America veer so far to the right as to become incomprehensible to Europe, as it would no doubt be to Richard Nixon? And why is it likely to remain so no matter who occupies the Oval Office? Like latter-day de Tocquevilles, English journalists John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge explain this new America, and the conservative movement that shaped it, with a freshness and clarity that elude most native observers. "The Right Nation" is an indispensable guide to the mystery of American difference that will illuminate readers on both the right and left.

One Aryan Nation Under God: Exposing the New Racial

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Walters, Jerome, PUBLISHER: Pilgrim Press, What do racial extremists believe about God, religion, and their own place in the world? How should the Christian church respond to these beliefs? Drawing on his own experiences as a minister in an area of Montana where extremist groups are active, Jerome Walters provides an in-depth look at such groups in the United States -- and at the theological ideas undergirding their beliefs. He reveals that many of these groups have at their core the belief that Adam and Eve gave birth to the white race while nonwhite races were the progeny of Eve and the serpent. From this belief emanate all the controversial issues that attract media coverage. Unlike other exposes, however, "One Nation Under God" goes beyond simply explaining the beliefs of these groups. It provides an antidote by giving practical steps Christians can take to counter the overt and covert acts of racial extremists.
