It is a travesty of history that Ambedkar, whose mortifying critiques of the caste system are routinely cited by 'liberals' to scorn and deride Hinduism, but whose trenchant criticism of Islam, and particularly the history of Muslims in India, has received little critical scrutiny and has been swept under the carpet.Babasaheb Ambedkar's forthrightness and unapologetic voicing of his views were two of his most enduring characteristics. He was unafraid to speak his views, frequently on complicated matters that politicians at the time ignored.

"American democracy is in danger. How do we protect it from authoritarian reactionary Christianity? On January 6, 2021, a group of Americans stormed the Capitol to prevent the certification of their political opponent's election in the name of Jesus Christ and his representative on earth, Donald Trump. How could this have happened? David P. Gushee tackles the question in this timely work of Christian political ethics. Gushee calls us to preserve democratic norms of civil rights, rule of law, and shared governance, even as many Christians grow reactionary and antidemocratic. Broadly surveying global politics and modern history, he analyzes the ways Christians have supported authoritarianism today and in the past, aiming to understand why and how this happens-and how to prevent it. Ultimately, he develops a better model of Christian political engagement, looking to traditions of congregational democracy, dissident Black Christian politics, and covenantal theology as a guide. Defending Democracy from Its Christian Enemies advocates for sane, ethical, and compassionate politics in a world where many Christians are instigating discord and vying for power. Any concerned Christian will leave its pages with eyes clear to the dangers of our current form of political engagement and with insight into what democracy is truly meant to be."--

Pisces Moon: The Dark Arts of Empire is a non-fiction book about what writer William Burroughs called, "the backlash and bad karma of empire." Set against the author's month-long trip to London, Vietnam and Thailand in early 1991, it tells how the American empire was created by rapacious businessmen backed by a murderous military establishment, media moguls who designed a relentless psychological warfare campaign that glorifies warriors who are programmed to kill on command, and clerics who contrived a religious justification for imperialism, the subordination of women, and the establishment of chattel slavery. Pisces Moon shows how these mythmakers, led by CIA drug traffickers after World War Two, destroyed much of Southeast Asia. It also tells how the myth of American greatest has come home to roost and is now manifest as the vainglorious, militant Christian nationalist movement that wishes to establish a right-wing dictatorship. Pisces Moon argues that the survival of American democracy, and the world, depends upon people being able to distinguish between material evidence and substantiated facts on the one hand, and conspiracy theories, religious beliefs, and supremacist myths on the other.

"American Heresy uncovers the complex legacy of America's founding principles, demonstrating how the very same values have produced both good fruit and the bitter harvest of white Christian nationalism.

Tag med på en rejse fra Sovjetimperiets sidste dage, over det nye Ruslands fødsel, til den demokratiske genrejsning i 1990’erne. Dengang var landet omgærdet af så mange store forhåbninger, som dog hurtigt blev erstattet af en militaristisk og imperialistisk dagsorden, der udmøntede sig i en hævnlyst, som med årene er blevet selve drivkraften for Vladimir Putin.Med fokus på en broget skare af personligheder går bogen bag kulisserne i det politiske liv i Moskva, i Ruslands store virksomheder, i militæret og den hemmelige tjeneste, blandt mediefolk og spindoktorer.  Centralt står spørgsmålet: Hvordan kunne det ske? Hvordan kunne et land, der med flyvende faner bevægede sig væk fra statsdiktat og stormagtsekspansionisme, havne i en situation, der på mange punkter er værre og mere udsigtsløs end dengang? Mange faktorer spiller ind – historiske, socialpsykologiske, kommercielle, menneskelige. Det er denne komplekse, historiske udvikling bogen beskriver i en række skæbnefortællinger, der til sammen udgør den store historie om det moderne Ruslands vej mod katastrofen.

This book uncompromisingly brings up the question of the demographic destiny of Europe and the Great Replacement. Rikard Högberg lays out the social decline for the last decades across all developed countries. He points out how modern liberal ideology and short-term selfishness have led to the erosion of traditional values, thus subsequently leading to social and demographic decline.This is illustrated with examples from different European countries over the last decades. Simultaneously, as people of European descent are facing demographic decline, there has been increased immigration into western countries from outside the West. As a consequence, the West is now facing an existential crisis.A crisis that western democracies are ill-equipped to deal with. A strong political will and cultural revitalisation are needed now more than ever to secure the future of European peoples and traditions everywhere. There is no future without children, and there is only one solution; young men and women must unite to create prominent happy families.

India will soon be the world's most populated country and its political development will shape the world of the 21st century. Yet Hindu nationalism - at the helm of contemporary Indian politics - is not well understood outside of India, and its links to the global neoliberal trajectory have not been explored. Covering 30 years of Indian politics, this book shows for the first time the importance of education in propagating the acceptance of Hindu nationalism within a neolberal system, including the reframing of the concept of Indian citizenship. The first five years of Modi rule failed to bring about the development that had been promised and have seen India's rapid change from a largely inclusive society to one where religious minorities are denied their basic rights.

In Defensive Nationalism, B. S. Rabinowitz looks at the rise of nativism and populism today by using the works of two great theoreticians: Karl Polanyi and Joseph Schumpeter. She combines Polanyi's concept of the 'double movement' away from markets and toward social protection with Schumpeter's theory of innovation. Rabinowitz argues turn-of-the-century transportation and communications revolutions in both eras produced toxic political upheavals and reframes nationalism as a three-part process: creative, consolidating, and defensive. Skillfully combining theory and history, the author produces a stunningly comprehensive account of why populism and fascism are on the rise in the early 21st century.

"A book by Marco Rubio about what America needs to change in order to have a prosperous future"--

Drawing on the thought of Hoffer and Durkheim, this volume analyses the responses of populations in Western societies who feel that changes in the racial, religious, and ethnic make-up of society threaten their way of life, employing the concepts of 'anomie' and 'the true believer' to understand the fractious nature of contemporary society.

This book explores the nationalist and imperialist ideas underlying Max Weber's sociology, offering a conceptual analysis of his work to argue that Weber's thought is informed by an ethno-national understanding of the German people whose political aspirations can only be realized through a power-state and its activities on a world stage.
