Book Description
Left, Right, Out is the untold story of American political history. Exploring American history from its founding, David A. Epstein presents the phenomena that shaped the nation and its politics through the prism of third party politics. Whether short-lived or longer-lasting, each party examined in Left, Right, Out represents a unique and acute expression of the great social, economic, and political forces that influenced the evolution of the United States. Left, Right, Out reveals how much that we take for granted in American politics and society finds its origins in third party politics. Monumental movements such as Abolition, Prohibition, and Civil Rights, long associated with major party politics, originated in the efforts of pioneering third parties and their adherents. Left, Right, Out takes you into the remote corners of U.S. history and explores the forces and personalities forgotten in a standard reading of American political history.

The Political Economy of Global Remittances
Author: Rahel KunzPublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1136724087
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
Over the last decade, a new phenomenon has emerged within the international community: the Global Remittances Trend (GRT). Thereby, government institutions, international (financial) organisations, NGOs and private sector actors have become interested in migration and remittances and their potential for poverty reduction and development, and have started to devise institutions and policies to harness this potential. This book employs a gender-sensitive governmentality analysis to trace the emergence of the GRT, to map its conceptual and institutional elements, and to examine its broader implications. Through an analysis of the GRT at the international level, combined with an in-depth case study on Mexico, this book demonstrates that the GRT is instrumental in spreading and deepening specific forms of gendered neoliberal governmentality. This innovative book will be of interest to students and scholars of political science, international relations, sociology, development studies, economics, gender studies and Latin American studies.
Handbook of Research on Politics in the Computer Age

Pages : 436
Book Description
Technology and particularly the Internet have caused many changes in the realm of politics. Aspects of engineering, computer science, mathematics, or natural science can be applied to politics. Politicians and candidates use their own websites and social network profiles to get their message out. Revolutions in many countries in the Middle East and North Africa have started in large part due to social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter. Social networking has also played a role in protests and riots in numerous countries. The mainstream media no longer has a monopoly on political commentary as anybody can set up a blog or post a video online. Now, political activists can network together online. The Handbook of Research on Politics in the Computer Age is a pivotal reference source that serves to increase the understanding of methods for politics in the computer age, the effectiveness of these methods, and tools for analyzing these methods. The book includes research chapters on different aspects of politics with information technology, engineering, computer science, or math, from 27 researchers at 20 universities and research organizations in Belgium, Brazil, Cape Verde, Egypt, Finland, France, Hungary, Italy, Mexico, Nigeria, Norway, Portugal, and the United States of America. Highlighting topics such as online campaigning and fake news, the prospective audience includes, but is not limited to, researchers, political and public policy analysts, political scientists, engineers, computer scientists, political campaign managers and staff, politicians and their staff, political operatives, professors, students, and individuals working in the fields of politics, e-politics, e-government, new media and communication studies, and Internet marketing.

Pages : 146
Book Description
After the 2016 presidential election, millions of Americans asked the same question: How did we get to the point as a nation that we nominated these two completely unsuitable candidates for president? The author of this book - Tom Mitsoff, who has decades of leadership experience in mass media companies - asked the same question. Utilizing a combination of his personal experiences and research, the author charts two courses: How we as a nation reached this point What we as a nation can do to reverse this trend, before it's too late You'll read: How Harry S. Truman's upset victory over Thomas Dewey in 1948 had many parallels to the Donald Trump surprise win over Hillary Clinton How the mass media's approach to news coverage has changed over the past century, and most importantly, the reasons why How Roger Ailes helped to shape the way our presidential campaigns are run today, long before he took control of Fox News How a perfect storm of business, societal and political changes paved the way for the outbreak of "fake news" during the 2016 campaign Why "post-truth" became Oxford Dictionaries' word of the year for 2016 Why many voters no longer care whether candidates are telling the truth or not, and how the candidates cater to those specific bases The profile of a candidate who must step forward to help stop "post-truth politics" in America, and why the candidate's primary platform plank MUST BE to always tell the truth to the American people The obstacles facing this candidate, along with a plan to give this candidate a legitimate chance The absolute necessity for involvement in the electoral process by the more than 100 million Americans who consider themselves political independents, but many who did not vote in 2016 out of apparent disgust or apathy If you are among the millions of Americans who are disgusted with our presidential nomination and election process, but have no idea what to do about it, "Fixing Post-Truth Politics" will tell you how we got here, and what steps a concerned populace can take. Forty percent of Americans self-identify as being independent of either the Democrat or Republican party. But they don't vote that way. This book describes how to find the candidate who will give voters who have passed the point of exasperation with the Democratic and Republican party political machines someone who they can feel good about voting for. And, it charts the path necessary to have a chance for victory in each of our 50 states. Most importantly, this book presents what has happened to our country in ways not many people have realized. It is meant as an eye-opening instigator of thought and discussion to expand on the plan outlined within. Visit us at http: //fixposttruthpolitics.com to join the discussion. This book is written for the more than 100 million United States citizens who do not currently have a voice in national politics. These are the people in the political "middle," who, in effect, have no representation in the federal government. You will learn in this book that there are more "middle-grounders" than there are Democrats or Republicans in the U.S., but the "middle" has nobody standing up for it. This book is written for the people in the middle who have an open mind and don't automatically subscribe and tie themselves to a position or statement just because one of the leaders of the Democratic or Republican parties says it. You will read in this book how technological and cultural changes over the past half-century have led us to a point in our country's history where the truthfulness of presidential candidates' statements is not important to a substantial percentage of the electorate.
