| falling in love with america again jim demint: America: Our Sacred Honor Mary A. Kardes, 2015-06-16 America is at a crossroads, and the road we elect to travel will either restore the spirit of America or continue to weaken our country forever. Ordinary American citizens must make fundamental decisions. We have been warned and though the warnings have been muted by media sources and special interest groups, they are growing louder. Voices of genuine concern come from within the United States and from abroad. We Americans must listen to and take seriously what we are being told. We need to educate ourselves about American history; real, unbiased history. We need to know the Constitution, the very cornerstone of our nation and we need to hold our politicians and government leaders accountable. Americans must once again stand united to defend our beloved country and our very way of life. |

Holmes, 2017-12-12 A former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State and currently Acting Senior Vice President for Research at The Heritage Foundation, Kim R. Holmes surveys the state of liberalism in America today and finds that it is becoming its opposite—illiberalism—abandoning the precepts of open-mindedness and respect for individual rights, liberties, and the rule of law upon which the country was founded, and becoming instead an intolerant, rigidly dogmatic ideology that abhors dissent and stifles free speech. Tracing the new illiberalism historically to the radical Enlightenment, a movement that rejected the classic liberal ideas of the moderate Enlightenment that were prominent in the American Founding, Holmes argues that today’s liberalism has forsaken its American roots, incorporating instead the authoritarian, anti-clerical, and anti-capitalist prejudices of the radical and largely European Left. The result is a closing of the American liberal mind. Where once freedom of speech and expression were sacrosanct, today liberalism employs speech codes, trigger warnings, boycotts, and shaming rituals to stifle freedom of thought, expression, and action. It is no longer appropriate to call it liberalism at all, but illiberalism—a set of ideas in politics, government, and popular culture that increasingly reflects authoritarian and even anti-democratic values, and which is devising new strategies of exclusiveness to eliminate certain ideas and people from the political process. Although illiberalism has always been a temptation for American liberals, lurking in the radical fringes of the Left, it is today the dominant ideology of progressive liberal circles. This makes it a new danger not only to the once venerable tradition of liberalism, but to the American nation itself, which needs a viable liberal tradition that pursues social and economic equality while respecting individual liberties. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: Falling in Love with America Again Jim DeMint, 2014-07-01 In his new role as president and CEO of The Heritage Foundation, Jim DeMint has travelled the country talking to Americans about how to return to our founding principles and restore and protect our economy and culture for future generations. He's realized that he-and all of us as fellow citizens-must fall in love with America-again. In this book, DeMint introduces Americans all across the country who are working towards the same goal, We see example after example of Americans coming together locally in what DeMint calls the little platoons-the families, churches, communities and voluntary organizations succeeding on the model that smaller is better. They are the hands-on citizens who make America the exceptional, caring and can-do country it has always been. DeMint illustrates why each of us-regardless of political party, age, race, religion or ethnicity-must rediscover the power we represent. The country's future is at risk, not just because of constant pressure from the Bigs (big government, big banks, big labor, big Wall Street cronies etc.), but because so many of us fear it's too late to solve problems so huge and seemingly intractable. Jim DeMint is here to reassure us that this is not true. In riveting yet plainspoken style, he tells real-life success stories and affirms the compelling truth that conservative ideas are really American ideas, and they must guide us as we turn our institutions upside-down, taking them from the top-down centrally-controlled bureaucracies they've become back to the bottom-up democratic framework the Constitution intended. Through this heartfelt, fascinating and inspiring look inside the America of both yesterday and today, and the everyday citizens who are working tirelessly and selflessly to insure its future fulfills the promise of its beginnings, Jim DeMint is beckoning us to join him on one of the most meaningful and momentous journeys we have ever undertaken together: FALLING IN LOVE WITH AMERICA AGAIN. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: Falling in Love with America Again Jim DeMint, 2014-03-04 Serving within the supposed pinnacles of power as a respected and influential U.S. Senator from South Carolina, Jim DeMint often felt frustrated and powerless to fight against the frightening growth of the federal bureaucracy and refute the mistaken idea that ever-bigger government is the solution to the nation's problems. In his new role as president and CEO of The Heritage Foundation, Jim DeMint has taken on the daunting responsibility of helping to lead Americans themselves to change their country's course, of redirecting us back to our founding principles and restoring and protecting our economy and culture for future generations. He realized that he - and all of us as fellow citizens - must fall in love with America - again. In this book, DeMint illustrates why Americans must rediscover the power, ingenuity and creativity of our little platoons. He then introduces Americans all across the country whose patriotism was nurtured in exactly the same way, recounting example after example of how they're working together locally in what he calls the little platoons - the families, churches, communities and voluntary organizations succeeding on the model that smaller is better. They are the hands-on citizens who make America the exceptional, caring and can-do country it has always been. DeMint illustrates why each of us - regardless of political party, age, race, religion or ethnicity - must rediscover the power we represent. The country's future is at risk, not just because of constant pressure from the Bigs (big government, big banks, big labor, big Wall Street cronies etc.), but because so many of us fear it's too late to solve problems so huge and seemingly intractable. Jim DeMint is here to reassure us that this is not true. In riveting yet plainspoken style, he tells real-life success stories and educates us via logical, historical and fact-based explanations of the issues (education, taxation, regulation, poverty, labor, health-care, environmentalism, Federalism and more). He affirms the compelling truth that conservative ideas are really American ideas, and they must guide us as we turn our institutions upside-down, taking them from the top-down centrally-controlled bureaucracies they've become back to the bottom-up democratic framework the Constitution intended. Through this heartfelt, fascinating and inspiring look inside the America of both yesterday and today, and the everyday citizens who are working tirelessly and selflessly to insure its future fulfills the promise of its beginnings, Jim DeMint is beckoning us to join him on one of the most meaningful and momentous journeys we have ever undertaken together: FALLING IN LOVE WITH AMERICA AGAIN. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: 話語權的世紀角力：從TED、論壇到智庫，公共知識分子及意見領袖面對「思想產業」的理念拉鋸與道德考驗 丹尼爾•德雷斯納(Daniel W. Drezner), 2020-07-28 處處平台、人人發聲的時代 「思想出口」、「觀念販賣」才是王道！ 你以為的 TED 講壇，其實不是那麼回事？ 知識分子榮光不再、走下神壇 意見領袖分秒放送、席捲講壇。 這是專屬「思想領袖」的個人秀場！ 【本書特色】 ☑ 作者為國際政治領域知名學者，「殭屍國際政治理論」、「思想產業」等新時代觀念創立者 ☑ 近年第一本由學界紅人結合自身經歷思考與大環境實況，全盤歸結「思想市場」產業鏈的精采鳥瞰式分析 ☑ 細膩檢視「公共知識分子」、「思想領袖」、「網紅自媒體」、「TED 講者」等新時代公眾場域發言者的角色分布與場域萬象 ☑ 忠實呈現當下「公眾數位知識鍊」的核心風景與發展趨勢，以及其中錯綜複雜的財閥、粉絲資源共生關係 /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 廖雲章（獨立評論@天下頻道總監） 冀劍制（華梵大學哲學系教授） 顏擇雅（出版人、作家） ──角力推薦（依姓名筆劃排序） 【內容簡介】 公共知識分子的發展歷史悠久，他們總是在一些擁有高度話語權的評論雜誌上，圍繞各種類型的話題發表意見。但近年來，公共知識分子卻被另一類思想家所取代，這一新晉群體被稱為「思想領袖」。與公共知識分子不同的是，思想領袖通常在那些與公眾聯繫較為緊密的機構工作，而較少在高端雜誌上進行辯論，他們的想法總是雄心勃勃且備受稱讚。 當代思想的生產與傳播已經依循網路時代文化產業的模式來組織與營運。這些轉變是如何發生的呢？作者在本書中對此進行了詳細探究，並向我們展現了當代美國、乃至西方公共知識分子的生活。作者認為，儘管當今的思想產業存在一些負面的內容，但它非常擅長廣泛地傳播思想，並吸引大量渴望新想法的人。對知識分子而言，勇氣的真正標誌曾經是「敢於向權威說出真相」。如今，「向金錢說出真相」需要更多勇氣。這麼做的知識分子可能會損失巨額演講費以及收到 TED 演講邀請的機會——這樣的機會是通往真金、白銀的大門。一旦你開始賺錢，為什麼要放棄呢？你的聽眾所擁有的財富，可能遠遠超過你這輩子所能創造的。 作者在書中掌握了恰到好處的平衡，仔細分析了思想產業背後的關鍵因素——新富豪統治階級的崛起是其中最重要的原因。作者的論點是，「思想領袖的時代取代了公共知識分子的時代」。公共知識分子是江湖騙子的天敵。相比之下，思想領袖就像是刺蝟。他們懂一樣東西，反覆兜售，至死方休。 作者在書中呼籲公共知識分子回歸，但也承認這是奢求。例如尼爾•弗格森這樣的思想領袖。他是英國歷史學家，在史丹福大學任職——他曾是一名公共知識分子。但他向作者坦言，他意識到思想領袖的收入更高，因此他開始迎合這座市場。學者們怎麼看待你的工作，遠沒有這件事重要：你的想法能否吸引別人一小時花八萬美元聽你演講？品牌比內容更重要。如果出了點錯，只要繼續說下一個重要的問題就行…… 【精采看點】 ➢ 我們正處於外交政策上對「理念市場」（marketplace of ideas）的微妙時間點，這是屬於「思想領袖」（thought leader）的最佳時期，卻也是「公共知識分子」（public intellectual）的寒冬時刻。 ➢ 從歐巴馬到川普，從一個菁英知識分子領導人到善用 Twitter 的民粹主義者，美國政治似乎不再青睞傳統菁英學者治國風格，川普蠻橫、多變、蔑視傳統、充滿爭議，但他也傾聽那些保守派領導人不曾在乎的「底層之聲」。2016年，《經濟學人》將川普列為十大地緣政治風險之一，他沒有傳統菁英團隊，缺乏智囊專家，發言刁鑽偏激，不屑於根深柢固的政治風格，零世界觀，非主流，但為何他那似乎不合乎當代邏輯的「美國第一」口號，得以在不少美國人的內心深處激起共鳴？歐巴馬和川普的故事讓我們得出結論：「理念市場」崛起，確實對傳統政治角色造成不小影響。 ➢ 「公共知識分子」，意指專家、學者等能夠對廣泛的公共政策問題發表意見的傳統社會評論家、政治學者、社會學者。公共知識分子也是批評者，批評兜售糟糕政策的政府，但是當公共知識分子失去社會信譽時，他們極容易被政客或騙子藉民粹輿論擊垮，畢竟專業人士與普羅大眾的連結薄弱。相較來說，「思想領袖」更為小清新，如果說知識分子說的是文謅謅的之乎者也，思想領袖便是文言文的轉譯者，運用其獨特視角解釋世界，並傳播給一般民眾（例如網紅、名嘴、各大平台演講者）。兩者都從事知識創造，但風格迥異。知識守門人功能衰弱，以思想領袖為首的新貴大幅增長，得以挑戰傳統權威，加上民主化加持，人們普遍看好相對更為親近的思想領袖。美國政治制度的兩極白熱化是另一個影響思想市場的現象，群眾對二元政治感到疲憊，傾向跳脫傳統思維。貧富差距和 M 型社會加劇思想領袖的誕生，收入頂端的財富累積者為思想領袖提供資金來源，逐漸掌握知識守門人身份，創建自己的知識產權平台，有別於傳統掌握知識的威權領域，思想領袖也樂於尋找伯樂，推動與金主的想法共鳴，獲得更多支持（類似戰國時期的食客），配合網路發達的社群交流，思想領袖的點子傳播無遠弗屆，形成思想領袖、資本家、大眾之間的三角鐵網。 ➢ 公共知識分子的知識累積是緩慢的，知識分子必須透過長期的研究、推敲、辯論、實證等步驟，得到一個高度可信的結果；而思想領袖卻彷彿曇花一現、煙花四起，炸出一場又一場的新高潮，卻不堪長時間鑽研查證，容易激發短期快速的影響力，卻可能失去本質。正是因為如今「點子世代」與富人和強者混合在一起，才更值得闡釋。政策制定者都需要思想市場集思廣益，表達和辯論他們為什麼要落實某件政治行為和決策，越複雜的問題，越需要冷靜有力的聲音告知止血點，這也是公共知識分子仍舊不可取代的原因。 ➢ 作者其實並不讚賞思想領袖的存在，甚至處處擔心思想領袖淪為壞心人士的棋子，大力強調公共知識分子在政策監督上的存在價值。與其說公共知識分子和思想領袖是兩條路線，不如說領導者仍須以知識分子做為主心骨，思想領袖適時鞭策碰撞，避免古板專斷，提醒知識分子世界的需求和聲音。如同一個生態圈，知識分子總會面臨定期的失寵衰退，如何與社會、點子創作者、閱聽人互利共生，才是永續關鍵。 ➢ 「有機知識分子」走向歷史舞臺，時髦話題早已變成「知識分子的退場」：高校日益與世隔絕，學術思考日益狹窄，在在導致知識分子對公共議題的失語與「被迫」輕視。那些曾經作為知識分子從事有意義研究的後盾的研究機構，也已被新的贊助人重塑。來自政府機構和慈善單位的資金幾乎耗盡，智庫需要從公司、政界菁英處開源。這些人對做研究興趣缺缺，他們在乎的是為自己贊成的觀點提供政治方面的支持。或者更赤裸地說，他們想要「獲得回報」。結果智庫變得越來越偏狹。長久以來學術研究不受產業影響的原則被擱置，名校也向工業界開放...... ➢ 《外交政策》雜誌每年隆重提出的全球百大思想家名單，各種高階會議、演講和論壇的興起，使知識分子以過去難以想像的方式與政治、經濟和文化的菁英們相互結交。各種「大觀念」活動（例如 TED 年會、世界經濟達沃斯論壇、博鰲亞洲論壇等帶動風潮，邀請具有挑釁感、新觀點的思想家，滿足與會者好奇心，更能吸引媒體關注。新世紀的公共領域雖然比以往更開闊，卻也更「有利可圖」。 ➢ 公共領域正在發生一場工業革命，過去的「理念市場」已經轉變為「思想工業」。如果知識分子維持生計的手段真的影響了社會大眾的思考方式，那思想領袖的崛起可能會讓所有人缺乏深入思考。目前思想工業的需求與獎勵明顯傾向思想領袖，而非公知，原因在於三種趨勢：對體制權威信任的衰落、社會政治的極端化，以及經濟不平等快速加劇。這三種要素形成了高度不穩定的社會氣氛，也塑造了思想工業的供需結構。人們對新思想以及思考世界的方式產生強烈需求，迫切期待理念明確的思想領袖，而不是在學術上糾纏細節的知識分子。公領域的革命就像農業革命和工業革命，會帶來贏者和輸家，引發知識階層大動盪，也會改變思想生態系統。思想工業的結構性不平衡需要認真處理。 ➢ 在思想領域中，實際情況遠比「今不如昔」的論調複雜得多。多年來，學者們一直抱怨大眾文化的粗俗，那麼面對更加廣泛的、對新思想的渴望，以及回應這種渴望的努力，我們就不該沮喪或苛求。兩類人物在民主社會的公領域中都能發揮作用。公知常常被指責為具有菁英主義傾向，但他們的批判揭露了「偽裝成智慧」的陳詞濫調。而思想領袖往往在學術上過於草率而受到嘲諷，但他們傳播的新觀念，能夠在變化多端的時代提供具有啟發性的視角和方法，以激發人們重新去想像這個世界...... 【各界讚譽】 ⦿ 作者是一位活潑且富有吸引力的作家……他不斷帶領讀者認識新時代來臨的好處和弊端，從中獲取平衡。── Times Literary Supplement ⦿ 我真心推薦這本書，因為裡面有我不同意的結論，特別是作者批評像 Clayton Christensen（哈佛大學商學院教授，具有批判特質的著名學者）這般的思想領袖。然而，這就是關鍵，他讓我思考。書裡他特別談了所謂的 Overton Window（奧佛頓之窗，適用於一些反映當時政治氣候或被選民所接受的政策。這些政策通常保持中立，但如果有某些政客、政黨、政策或政治事件影響了選民，它們也可能偏左或者偏右），它基本上定義了創意產業和我們其他人認為應該成為公共政策辯論核心的內容，作者給了我全新觀點。── Chip Hauss ⦿ 作者在描述 TED 現象方面做得很好。── Lulu Cao ⦿ 本書非常適合用來熟悉美國國際事務的現代實務。提到了國際關係領域的重要人物和機構，並對其適用性做了很好的總結。當然，本書也提出了非常有趣的爭論點。在我讀這本書的整個過程中，我忍不住閱讀更多的國際關係文獻，以及關注更多有趣的 Twitter 頁面以更熟悉國內的點子世代走向。── Will Lee |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: The Ideas Industry Daniel W. Drezner, 2017-03-01 The public intellectual has a long and storied history. Previously, the public intellectual was always expected to opine on a broad array of topics, from foreign policy to economics. Yet in recent years a new kind of thinker has supplanted that archetype: the thought leader. Equipped with one big idea, thought leaders focus their energies on TED talks rather than highbrow periodicals. In contrast to public intellectuals, thought leaders gain fame as single-idea merchants. Their ideas are often laudable and highly ambitious, but they often work through institutions that are closed to the public and less open to criticism. In The Ideas Industry, Daniel W. Drezner explains how this shift happened, pointing to the roles of political polarization, heightened inequality, and eroding trust in authority. In contrast to their predecessors, today's intellectuals are more likely to enjoy the support of ideologically friendly private funders and be housed in ideologically-driven think tanks. Increasing inequality is also a key driver of this shift: more than ever before, contemporary plutocrats fund intellectuals and idea factories that generate arguments that align with their own. Finally, the erosion of trust in experts has lowered the barriers of entry in the marketplace of ideas. But, while there are certainly some downsides to the contemporary ideas industry, Drezner argues that it is very good at broadcasting ideas widely and reaching large audiences hungry for new thinking. Both fair-minded and trenchant, The Ideas Industry reshapes our understanding of contemporary public intellectual life in America and the West. |

(The Decline and Fall fleshes out what Emmanuel Goldsteins The Book, from Orwells 1984, may look like today.) America, as we are conditioned and believe we know it to be, is dissolving before our very eyes. Ask yourself: what is it that is not being said? This analysis is not a black and white, an Us vs. Them simplification or pessimism (as many still hold to valid ideals in a system that no longer works for We the people.)

| falling in love with america again jim demint: Satan's Dare Jim DeMint, 2021-05-19 Satan's Dare is different from any other Jim DeMint book, and it very well may be his most important. —Glenn Beck Satan's Dare is a powerful story that will confirm the faith of Christians and challenge skeptics to search for real truth. —Dr. M. G. Pat Robertson The Bible is often presented as an antiquated document filled with mysterious prophesies, unbelievable fables, and arbitrary decisions by a God whose actions range from anger and vengeance to love and forgiveness. The Bible's creation story appears to be at complete odds with more credible scientific explanations of the origins and evolution of life. And believers in Biblical truth are further challenged by haunting questions about why a good God would create a world so full of evil, pain, suffering and death. Satan's Dare takes these issues and questions head on. |

The Rise and Fall of Global Austerity explains the origins and history of austerity, severe implications of the idea of it and how the continuation of the Great Recession was a by-product of austerity measures. Covering austerity policies that are in place in the United States, Europe, and other countries, E Ray Canterbery explains why austerity is detrimental for economies, economic policy and the general health of populations around the world. He highlights the connection between public debt and austerity policies and shows how the austerity lobby works in the United States to achieve its goals. Besides presenting a critique of the rationale for austerity, Canterbery also recommends monetary, fiscal, and incomes policy remedies, and stresses why economic growth and full employment are more ideal and pragmatic antidotes to the Great Recession. |

In his trademark breezy, funny, and engaging style, David Brody takes you inside the blossoming Teavangelical movement and describes how it is having a major effect on today’s politics with an eye on dominating the political affairs of tomorrow. The author takes his niche for getting interviews and inside access with all the big-name political and evangelical newsmakers and now shares that exclusive access with readers. The author offers a rare, behind-the-scenes glimpse along the campaign trail within the three key factions working tirelessly to overcome President Obama and his political machine: evangelicals, the Tea Party and the GOP presidential contenders. Brody, embedded with leading Tea Party and evangelical groups, shares what he learned from private emails, memos, and conversations that shed light on campaign strategy and voter mobilization efforts. In addition, this book highlights Brody’s exclusive interviews, stories, and travels with all the 2012 GOP presidential candidates as they try to be the candidate that takes on President Obama and ultimately change the course of direction in America. The author travels to the key early Primary states of Iowa and South Carolina where Evangelicals will have a major say in who the GOP nominates for President. The author gives readers the inside scoop on the power of evangelical groups and how they’re making a difference early on in the process. Additionally, how will these GOP candidates appeal to evangelicals and how well will it work out? At the same time, the candidates are catering to the Tea Party crowd. We’ll go inside the living rooms of major Tea Party organizers to get inside access on the chatter. Are these presidential candidates passing the Tea Party “smell test”? |

| falling in love with america again jim demint: American Carnage Tim Alberta, 2020-03-24 New York Times' Top Books of 2019 Politico Magazine's chief political correspondent provides a rollicking insider's look at the making of the modern Republican Party--how a decade of cultural upheaval, populist outrage, and ideological warfare made the GOP vulnerable to a hostile takeover from the unlikeliest of insurgents: Donald J. Trump. The 2016 election was a watershed for the United States. But, as Tim Alberta explains in American Carnage, to understand Trump's victory is to view him not as the creator of this era of polarization and bruising partisanship, but rather as its most manifest consequence. American Carnage is the story of a president's rise based on a country's evolution and a party's collapse. As George W. Bush left office with record-low approval ratings and Barack Obama led a Democratic takeover of Washington, Republicans faced a moment of reckoning: They had no vision, no generation of new leaders, and no energy in the party's base. Yet Obama's forceful pursuit of his progressive agenda, coupled with the nation's rapidly changing cultural and demographic landscape, lit a fire under the right, returning Republicans to power and inviting a bloody struggle for the party's identity in the post-Bush era. The factions that emerged--one led by absolutists like Jim Jordan and Ted Cruz, the other led by pragmatists like John Boehner and Mitch McConnell--engaged in a series of devastating internecine clashes and attempted coups for control. With the GOP's internal fissures rendering it legislatively impotent, and that impotence fueling a growing resentment toward the political class and its institutions, the stage was set for an outsider to crash the party. When Trump descended a gilded escalator to announce his run in the summer of 2015, the candidate had met the moment. Only by viewing Trump as the culmination of a decade-long civil war inside the Republican Party--and of the parallel sense of cultural, socioeconomic, and technological disruption during that period--can we appreciate how he won the White House and consider the fundamental questions at the center of America's current turmoil. How did a party obsessed with the national debt vote for trillion-dollar deficits and record-setting spending increases? How did the party of compassionate conservatism become the party of Muslim bans and walls? How did the party of family values elect a thrice-divorced philanderer? And, most important, how long can such a party survive? Loaded with exclusive reporting and based off hundreds of interviews--including with key players such as President Trump, Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz, John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, Jim DeMint, and Reince Priebus, and many others--American Carnage takes us behind the scenes of this tumultuous period as we've never seen it before and establishes Tim Alberta as the premier chronicler of this political era. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: C Street Jeff Sharlet, 2010-09-27 C Street - where piety, politics, and corruption meet Jeff Sharlet is the only journalist to have reported from inside the C Street House, the Fellowship residence known simply by its Washington, DC address. The house has lately been the scene of notorious political scandal, but more crucially it is home to efforts to transform the very fabric of American democracy. And now, after laying bare its tenants' past in The Family, Sharlet reports from deep within fundamentalism in today's world, revealing that the previous efforts of religious fundamentalists in America pale in comparison with their long-term ambitions. When Barack Obama entered the White House, headlines declared the age of culture wars over. In C Street, Sharlet shows why these conflicts endure and why they matter now - from the sensationalism of Washington sex scandals to fundamentalism's long shadow in Africa, where Ugandan culture warriors determined to eradicate homosexuality have set genocide on simmer. We've reached a point where piety and corruption are not at odds but one and the same. Reporting with exclusive sources and explosive documents from C Street, the war on gays in Uganda, and the battle for the soul of America's armed forces - waged by a 15,000-strong movement of officers intent on reclaiming territory for Christ in the military Sharlet reveals not the last gasp of old-time religion but the new front lines of fundamentalism. |

| falling in love with america again jim demint: Labor in America Melvyn Dubofsky, Foster Rhea Dulles, 2014-08-26 Even since the last edition of this milestone text was released six years ago, unions have continued to shed members; union membership in the private sector of the economy has fallen to levels not seen since the nineteenth century; the forces of economic liberalization (neo-liberalism), capital mobility, and globalization have affected measurably the material standard of living enjoyed by workers in the United States; and mass immigration from the Southern Hemisphere and Asia has continued to restructure the domestic labor force. Yet even in the face of anti-union legislation, a continuing decline in the number of organized workers, and the fear of stateless, if not faceless terrorism—the shadow of “911” in which we still live, in preparing this new edition of his classic text Professor Dubofsky has hewn to the lines laid out in the previous seven in seeking to encourage today’s students of labor history to learn about those who built the United States and who will shape its future. In addition to taking the narrative right up to the present, a recent history that includes the election of 2008 as well as the tumultuous blow suffered by the U.S. and world economy in 2008-09, this eighth edition features an entirely new (fourth) bank of photographs and, in light of the avalanche of new scholarly work over the last decade, a complete overhauling of the book’s extensive and critical Further Readings section in order to note the very best works from the profuse recent scholarship that explores the history of working people in all its diversity. |

| falling in love with america again jim demint: Pictorial Framing in Moral Politics Ahmed Abdel-Raheem, 2018-10-26 This book seeks to extend research on framing beyond linguistic and cognitive perspectives by examining framing in visual and multimodal texts and their impact on moral cognition and attitudes. Drawing on perspectives from frame semantics, blending theory, relevance theory, and pragmatics, the volume establishes a model of pictorial framing, arguing that subtle alterations in the visual presentation of issues around judgment and choice in such texts impact perception, and applies this framework to a range of case studies from Egyptian, British, and American cartoons and illustrations. The book demonstrates the affordances of applying this framework in enhancing our understanding of both the nature of word-image relations and issues of representation in the op-ed genre, but also in other forms of media more generally. The volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars in multimodality, critical discourse analysis, cognitive linguistics, social psychology, and communication studies. |

Crockett, 2012-07-18 BACK COVER: Detailing the far-right's attempts to alter the American political and economic landscape to satisfy its national ambitions, A MURDER OF CROWS identifies over 100 people and organizations who would seek to turn back America to a time of little governmental participation, lower tax rates for the wealthy, and a closely held corporate and personal control of society's functions and finances. It exposes the real desires and naked zeal of those who would place property rights over the rights and the needs of the average American citizen. The text is well documented and provides a scathing indictment of those on the right who would wish to alter America's future to serve only a very prosperous few. |

| falling in love with america again jim demint: Drain the Swamp Ken Buck, 2017-04-11 Now you can watch Congressman Ken Buck on the popular Facebook TV series The Swamp. Lavish parties. Committee chairmanships for sale. Pay-to-play corruption. Backroom arm-twisting. Votes on major legislation going to the highest bidder. Welcome to Washington, D.C., the swamp that President Donald Trump was elected to drain. Congressman Ken Buck is blowing the whistle on the real-life House of Cards in our nation's capital. Elected in 2014 as president of one of the largest Republican freshman classes ever to enter Congress, Buck immediately realized why nothing gets done in Congress, and it isn't because of political gridlock—in fact, Republicans and Democrats work together all too well to fleece taxpayers and plunge America deeper into debt. It is an insular process directed by power-hungry party elites who live like kings and govern like bullies, Buck reports. Buck has witnessed first-hand how the unwritten rules of Congress continually prioritize short-term political gain over lasting, principled leadership. When Buck tangled with Washington power brokers like former Speaker John Boehner, he faced petty retaliation. When he insisted Republicans keep their word to voters, he was berated on the House floor by his own party leaders. When other members of Congress dared to do what they believed to be right for America instead of what the party bosses commanded, Buck saw them stripped of committee positions and even denied dining room privileges by the petty beltway bullies. In Drain the Swamp, Buck names names and tells incredible true stories about what really happened behind closed doors in Congress during legislative battles that have ensued over the last two years including budget, continuing resolutions, omnibus, trade promotion authority, Iran, and more. If the Trump administration is going to bring real change to Washington, it first needs to get the whole story—from deep inside the swamp. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: The Scandal of Money George Gilder, 2016-03-28 Why do we think governments know how to create money? They don't. George Gilder shows that money is time, and time is real. He is our best guide to our most fundamental economic problem. --Peter Thiel, founder of PayPal and Palantir Technologies Thirty-five years ago, George Gilder wrote Wealth and Poverty, the bible of the Reagan Revolution. With The Scandal of Money he may have written the road map to the next big boom. --Arthur B. Laffer, coauthor of the New York Times bestseller An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of States Gilder pushes us to think about the government monopoly on money and makes a strong case against it. If you believe in economic freedom, you should read this book. --Senator Jim DeMint, president of The Heritage Foundation As famed economist and New York Times bestselling author George Gilder points out, “despite multi-billion dollar stimulus packages and near-zero interest rates, Wall Street recovers but the economy never does.” In his groundbreaking new book, The Scandal of Money, Gilder unveils a radical new explanation for our economic woes. Gilder also exposes the corruption of the Federal Reserve, Washington power-brokers, and Wall Street’s “too-big-to-fail” megabanks, detailing how a small cabal of elites have manipulated currencies and crises to stifle economic growth and crush the middle class. Gilder spares no one in his devastating attack on politicians’ economic policies. He claims that the Democrats will steer us to ruin – but points out that Republicans are also woefully misguided on how to salvage our economic future. With all major polls showing that voters rank the economy as one of the top three “most important problems” facing the nation, Gilder’s myth-busting, paradigm-shifting recipe for economic growth could not come at a more critical time. In The Scandal of Money, the reader will learn: Who is to blame for the economic crippling of America How the new titans of Wall Street value volatility over profitability Why China is winning and we are losing Who the real 1% is and how they are crushing the middle class The hidden dangers of a cashless society What Republicans need to do to win the economic debate—and what the Democrats are doing to make things worse |

| falling in love with america again jim demint: The Dynamic Welfare State David Stoesz, 2016 The Dynamic Welfare State explains the decline of the classic welfare state and documents the emergence of a third stage in the American welfare state, evident in corporations exploiting markets in healthcare, education, and financial services. Architects of the welfare state envisaged government as the provider of essential services to citizens; however, as the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 and the Affordable Care Act of 2010 show, corporations and the wealthy have become adept at using trade associations, hiring lobbyists, influencing elections, and contributing to think tanks in order to craft public policy so that it is congruent with industry preferences. Additionally, The Dynamic Welfare State describes the failure of health and human services professionals to advance the welfare of the public, graphically illustrated by the poverty trap, deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill, and the school-to-prison pipeline. A reconfigured welfare state is essential if government social programs are to honor their public commitments for the 21st century. This requires an appreciation for the contributions of nonprofit and for-profit organizations as well as the role of capitalism in welfare philosophy. Empowerment, mobility, and innovation are themes for a dynamic welfare state that is congruent with the 21st century. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: American Sports Murry R. Nelson, 2013-05-23 America loves sports. This book examines and details the proof of this fascination seen throughout American society—in our literature, film, and music; our clothing and food; and the iconography of the nation. This momentous four-volume work examines and details the cultural aspects of sport and how sport pervasively reflects—and affects—myriad aspects of American society from the early 1900s to the present day. Written in a straightforward, readable manner, the entries cover both historical and contemporary aspects of sport and American culture. Unlike purely historical encyclopedias on sports, the contributions within these volumes cover related subject matter such as poetry, novels, music, films, plays, television shows, art and artists, mythologies, artifacts, and people. While this encyclopedia set is ideal for general readers who need information on the diverse aspects of sport in American culture for research purposes or are merely reading for enjoyment, the detailed nature of the entries will also prove useful as an initial source for scholars of sport and American culture. Each entry provides a number of both print and online resources for further investigation of the topic. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: A Promised Land Barack Obama, 2024-08-13 A riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making—from the president who inspired us to believe in the power of democracy #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAACP IMAGE AWARD NOMINEE • NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW AND PEOPLE NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times • NPR • The Guardian • Slate • Vox • The Economist • Marie Claire In the stirring first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama tells the story of his improbable odyssey from young man searching for his identity to leader of the free world, describing in strikingly personal detail both his political education and the landmark moments of the first term of his historic presidency—a time of dramatic transformation and turmoil. Obama takes readers on a compelling journey from his earliest political aspirations to the pivotal Iowa caucus victory that demonstrated the power of grassroots activism to the watershed night of November 4, 2008, when he was elected 44th president of the United States, becoming the first African American to hold the nation’s highest office. Reflecting on the presidency, he offers a unique and thoughtful exploration of both the awesome reach and the limits of presidential power, as well as singular insights into the dynamics of U.S. partisan politics and international diplomacy. Obama brings readers inside the Oval Office and the White House Situation Room, and to Moscow, Cairo, Beijing, and points beyond. We are privy to his thoughts as he assembles his cabinet, wrestles with a global financial crisis, takes the measure of Vladimir Putin, overcomes seemingly insurmountable odds to secure passage of the Affordable Care Act, clashes with generals about U.S. strategy in Afghanistan, tackles Wall Street reform, responds to the devastating Deepwater Horizon blowout, and authorizes Operation Neptune’s Spear, which leads to the death of Osama bin Laden. A Promised Land is extraordinarily intimate and introspective—the story of one man’s bet with history, the faith of a community organizer tested on the world stage. Obama is candid about the balancing act of running for office as a Black American, bearing the expectations of a generation buoyed by messages of “hope and change,” and meeting the moral challenges of high-stakes decision-making. He is frank about the forces that opposed him at home and abroad, open about how living in the White House affected his wife and daughters, and unafraid to reveal self-doubt and disappointment. Yet he never wavers from his belief that inside the great, ongoing American experiment, progress is always possible. This beautifully written and powerful book captures Barack Obama’s conviction that democracy is not a gift from on high but something founded on empathy and common understanding and built together, day by day. |
| falling in love with america again jim demint: Reviving Rationality Michael A. Livermore, Richard L. Revesz, 2020-11-02 For decades, administrations of both political parties have used cost-benefit analysis to evaluate and improve federal policy in a variety of areas, including health and the environment. Today, this model is under grave threat. In Reviving Rationality, Michael Livermore and Richard Revesz explain how Donald Trump has destabilized the decades-long bipartisan consensus that federal agencies must base their decisions on evidence, expertise, and analysis. Administrative agencies are charged by law with protecting values like stable financial markets and clean air. Their decisions often have profound consequences, affecting everything from the safety of workplaces to access to the dream of home ownership. Under the Trump administration, agencies have been hampered in their ability to advance these missions by the conflicting ideological whims of a changing cast of political appointees and overwhelming pressure from well-connected interest groups. Inconvenient evidence has been ignored, experts have been sidelined, and analysis has been used to obscure facts, rather than inform the public. The results are grim: incoherent policy, social division, defeats in court, a demoralized federal workforce, and a loss of faith in government's ability to respond to pressing problems. This experiment in abandoning the norms of good governance has been a disaster. Reviving Rationality explains how and why our government has abandoned rationality in recent years, and why it is so important for future administrations to restore rigorous cost-benefit analysis if we are to return to a policymaking approach that effectively tackles the most pressing problems of our era. |
