DEMOCRACY ON TRIAL
Author: Dr. Ricardo Lasso
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1450066879
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
The great wartime leader, Winston Churchill, once remarked, “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.” Democracy on Trial recounts the history of this progressive form of governance while comparing it to a competing form: absolutism. Today we see the results of this conflict: flourishing civilization on one hand and crushing despotism on the other. Dr. Lasso, from his own bitter experiences with the despotism of Panama’s dictator, shows us how today’s democracy was won and how it must be vigilantly earned. Dr. Lloyd Muller Historian

Racism in the Modern World
Author: Manfred Berg
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 0857450778
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
Emphasizing the global nature of racism, this volume brings together historians from various regional specializations to explore this phenomenon from comparative and transnational perspectives. The essays shed light on how racial ideologies and practices developed, changed, and spread in Europe, Asia, the Near East, Australia, and Africa, focusing on processes of transfer, exchange, appropriation, and adaptation. To what extent, for example, were racial beliefs of Western origin? Did similar belief systems emerge in non-Western societies independently of Western influence? And how did these societies adopt and adapt Western racial beliefs once they were exposed to them? Up to this point, the few monographs or edited collections that exist only provide students of the history of racism with tentative answers to these questions. More importantly, the authors of these studies tend to ignore transnational processes of exchange and transfer. Yet, as this volume shows, these are crucial to an understanding of the diffusion of racial belief systems around the globe.
