Book excerpt: Anti-Americanism has now become an imperative for the sanity and stability of the world. Over the past 30 years almost every foreign adventure of the US has led to failure in compounding existing problems, and after the withdrawal of her forces, conditions have been left worse than when she intervened. Added to that is the resistance of her government to recognise the reality of global warming, and most recently, blundering policies have instigated a series of unexpected terrorist outrages on innocent victims which have made the world a more dangerous place.There are many justifications for anti-Americanism, but there is one which rises about all others: viz., a financial-industrial system which clashes with the long traditions of the social democracies in Europe and the Far East. Two incompatible capitalist systems have emerged amongst the advanced industrial economies in the post-War period: the Rentier capitalism of the US, and the Productive capitalism of Europe and the Far East. Each is guided by its own ideology, the Neo-liberalism of America versus the social democracy (a broad term transcending party politics) of Europe and the Far East Tiger economies.With America emerging as the clear victor of the Cold War in 1989, her government and corporations have been sufficiently confident to impose their financial-industrial system on the rest of the world, and this is proving disastrous to the social democratic consensus and welfare polices built up since 1945 and before. The argument is propagated that the European is no longer viable, and must therefore surrender to the American way and globalisation, but this is shown to be a fiction invented by US policy makers.There is an in-depth analysis of American culture which explains its political system, and the US is revealed to be very far from a true democracy. It is in Europe and elsewhere where the ideals of democracy, justice and equity are best promoted. The final chapters home-in on a European resolution to the most difficult problems of our time, viz., the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; and how to de-fuse the causes of Terror. The book is an appeal for the cause of civilisation, social justice and equity for all humanity.

Download or read book A Real Right to Vote written by Richard L. Hasen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why it's time to enshrine the right to vote in the Constitution Throughout history, too many Americans have been disenfranchised or faced needless barriers to voting. Part of the blame falls on the Constitution, which does not contain an affirmative right to vote. The Supreme Court has made matters worse by failing to protect voting rights and limiting Congress’s ability to do so. The time has come for voters to take action and push for an amendment to the Constitution that would guarantee this right for all. Drawing on troubling stories of state attempts to disenfranchise military voters, women, African Americans, students, former felons, Native Americans, and others, Richard Hasen argues that American democracy can and should do better in assuring that all eligible voters can cast a meaningful vote that will be fairly counted. He shows how a constitutional right to vote can deescalate voting wars between political parties that lead to endless rounds of litigation and undermine voter confidence in elections, and can safeguard democracy against dangerous attempts at election subversion like the one we witnessed in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election. The path to a constitutional amendment is undoubtedly hard, especially in these polarized times. A Real Right to Vote explains what’s in it for conservatives who have resisted voting reform and reveals how the pursuit of an amendment can yield tangible dividends for democracy long before ratification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's democracy has survived over the years by balancing several co-existing factors: individualism, liberty, equality, sovereignty, majority rule, minority rights, limited government and separation of powers. All are certainly important in the way Americans live and are also vitally essential to the survival of the nation we know and love.Possibly the most important factor in democracy is limited government and separation of powers, formed in the conglomeration of the Constitution ... and the executive, legislative and judicial equal but separate branches of government. That has been, and should remain, as our checks and balances as a nation.Democracy is not always perfect, it can be a bit messy, but its death will kill the right "we the people" have of acting and speaking freely, along with other important individual properties and purposes. But several attempts are being made these days to kill America's democracy. This book looks at some of those efforts, which if realized will end the rights of citizens to be treated equally - along with other valued safeguards. Democracy's demise would also eliminate our sovereignty and leave unprotected our national and international standards. Our power, strength and independence of a nation will be lost. By allowing such internal and external attacks, Americans will lose majority rule and our individual liberties. Americans can't be led astray. We must continue a government by the people for the people, which allows supreme power to be vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system. America can't become a place for dictators, tyranny, inequality and unfairness.
Download or read book Safeguarding Democratic Capitalism written by Melvyn P. Leffler and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-02 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Safeguarding Democratic Capitalism gathers together decades of writing by Melvyn Leffler, one of the most respected historians of American foreign policy, to address important questions about U.S. national security policy from the end of World War I to the global war on terror. Why did the United States withdraw strategically from Europe after World War I and not after World War II? How did World War II reshape Americans’ understanding of their vital interests? What caused the United States to achieve victory in the long Cold War? To what extent did 9/11 transform U.S. national security policy? Is budgetary austerity a fundamental threat to U.S. national interests? Leffler’s wide-ranging essays explain how foreign policy evolved into national security policy. He stresses the competing priorities that forced policymakers to make agonizing trade-offs and illuminates the travails of the policymaking process itself. While assessing the course of U.S. national security policy, he also interrogates the evolution of his own scholarship. Over time, slowly and almost unconsciously, Leffler’s work has married elements of revisionism with realism to form a unique synthesis that uses threat perception as a lens to understand how and why policymakers reconcile the pressures emanating from external dangers and internal priorities. An account of the development of U.S. national security policy by one of its most influential thinkers, Safeguarding Democratic Capitalism includes a substantial new introduction from the author.
Download or read book Pyramid on the Prairie The Safeguard Program and the Primacy of Politics in the Federal Budget Process written by Brandon Ross Teachout and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No responsible strategist would plan a process that proceeded quite like Safeguard and its predecessors, but the debates over deployment accomplished America's strategic goals, however indirectly. For that reason, the Safeguard story uniquely illuminates the interplay between the budget process and American democracy. Throughout the full period, incremental changes were negotiated over time. While there were inefficiencies, they were not the fault of the process. As Wildavsky says, the process is only an arena in which political battles are fought. If we seek more efficient government, it is politics, not process, that will have to change.
