Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Address to the Independent Members of Both Houses of Parliament Were the Motives which give rise to the following Pages founded upon principles of vulgar Ambition, I should by no means have addressed myself to you; the splendid rays of Power, or the scarce less dazzling beams of popular Applause would in that case have directed my Course; and the erroneous though fatal distinction of Ministry and Opposition, had rendred me the partial Bigot of the one or the other Faction. In times of less importance, private Friendship, or even political Opinion, might, to a certain Degree, have justified the Bias - but at a moment like the present, when, under the threatening Circumstances which surround us, our very existence as an independent Nation seems at stake; every Idea of partiality should, as far as Human Nature will permit, be done away, and every other consideration should give place to Conviction.

When he moves his business and his family to London, the city's upper crust begins buzzing with rumours about him—and a host of people ultimately find their lives changed because of him. The Way We Live Now was Trollope's longest novel, and is particularly rich in sub-plot. It was inspired by the financial scandals of the early 1870s; Trollope had just returned to England from abroad, and was appalled by the greed and dishonesty those scandals exposed. This novel was his rebuke. It dramatised how such greed and dishonesty pervaded the commercial, political, moral, and intellectual life of that era.

Download or read book Democracy Challenged in the 2022 Presidential Succession in Kenya written by Jeffrey Steeves and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This analysis of the 2022 presidential succession in Kenya examines the process’ evolution over time, not just in the stages closest to the presidential election. The live speeches, statements, press conferences, and rallies of the key actors are featured and analysed carefully. In Kenya, major television stations and regional stations are highly developed and offer a wealth of research opportunities. The book analyses the Roadside Rallies, which are a unique feature of Kenyan political campaigns in the face of State repression. An intense struggle took place leading up to the 2022 election. What made this succession special was the determination of the incumbent president to shape the succession to his will. In effect, the 2022 succession revealed the fault lines in the Kenya political class and the lengths an incumbent will go to assert his dominance over the succession process. The book explores the tools utilised by an Imperial President to circumvent legal and constitutional restrictions. For those interested in democracy in Africa, this study illustrates the very real barriers to its fulfillment.
