Democracies are fragile. Freedoms that seem secure can be lost. Few historical events illustrate this as vividly as the failure of the Weimar Republic. Germany's first democracy endured for fourteen tumultuous years and culminated with the horrific rise of the Third Reich. As one commentator wrote in July 1933: Hitler had "won the game with little effort. . . . All he had to do was huff and puff―and the edifice of German politics collapsed like a house of cards." But this tragedy was not inevitable.

Stoicism as a Warrior Philosophy grapples with these questions and more. Authored by a serving military professional, it breaks down the most advanced concepts of Stoicism into plain language without oversimplifying.

Rogue Elephant traces the radicalization of the Republican Party over the past 50 years, arguing that its subordination to Donald Trump was not an anomaly, but rather the culmination of processes at work for decades. Providing a new perspective on figures from Newt Gingrich and George W. Bush to the Tea Party and Donald Trump, it shows that the party's lurch to the far right was the product of a volatile mix of a disorganized party structure and a divided and fractious class of American business owners.

Richly informed and written in an engaging style, Against Empire exposes the ruthless agenda and hidden costs of the U.S. empire today. Documenting the pretexts and lies used to justify violent intervention and maldevelopment abroad, Parenti shows how the conversion to a global economy is a victory of finance capital over democracy.

As European empires crumbled in the 20th century, the power structures that had dominated the world for centuries were up for renegotiation. Yet instead of a rebirth for democracy, what emerged was a silent coup – namely, the unstoppable rise of global corporate power. Exposing the origins of this epic power grab as well as its present-day consequences, Silent Coup is the result of two investigative journalists' reports from 30 countries around the world.

Whether it was military fortifications or grand cities designed to follow victory, Adolf Hitler turned to his loyal favorites for construction projects matching his imperial ambitions. Of the course of five years, he landed Organisation Todt, “the most impressive building programme since Roman times,” according to British intelligence. Headed by Albert Speer, the OT became a key partner to the SS and the Wehrmacht and led to the deaths of millions.

Ancient Rome gave rise to the Roman Empire, one of history's greatest civilizations. It flourished for roughly five hundred years and, at its height, made up at least twenty percent of the world's population. It left an indelible mark on the world, shaping politics, laws, philosophy, and architecture, and gave us Roman numerals, the calendar, aqueducts, and concrete. Alongside the Greeks, the Romans laid the groundwork for Western civilization.

Lights. Camera. Canceled: Inside MAGA’s Assault on Hollywood is a provocative, unauthorized account of how Donald Trump and the MAGA movement turned Hollywood into the most unlikely battlefield of America’s culture wars. From the moment Trump descended the golden escalator in 2015, Hollywood went from red-carpet glamor to political punching bag. For MAGA loyalists, the industry wasn’t just out of touch—it was the enemy. Celebrities became symbols of “liberal elitism,” award shows turned into war zones, and blockbusters were branded as “woke propaganda.” For Hollywood, the ...

Our society is constantly made to serve the needs of two systems: technology and capitalism. Neither exists outside humans, but both are treated as above and beyond us. The Mechanic and the Luddite offers the critical tools needed to deconstruct these systems—how they work, whom they work for, and what work they do in our lives. With signature style and energy, Jathan Sadowski presents a provocative one-stop shop for understanding the political economy of technology and capitalism.

Our America, although a strong nation that can protect and defend herself, is under insidious danger from an unseen and stealthy antagonist. Presently, our nation’s military strength is powerful enough to persuade peace between adversarial nations that have visualized long absences of peace and cooperation. Just the perceived power of America’s military and cultural dominance has allowed Donald Trump to guide those lost nations to find cooperation and togetherness; a new spirit that saves thousands of young citizens from losing their lives before they have a chance to experience a world...

Mit gespenstischer Klarsicht nahm Aldous Huxley schon 1946 unsere Gegenwart vorweg: Durch technologischen Fortschritt konzentriert sich politische Macht plötzlich in den Händen weniger. In Zeiten gesellschaftlichen Umbruchs haben Nationalismus und geopolitische Machtspiele Hochkonjunktur, während Demokratie und Solidarität leiden. Stilistisch brillant beschreibt Aldous Huxley das aufziehende Zeitalter einer Tech-Oligarchie – einer Welt, in der Boy Gangsters in den Regierungen sitzen und das Recht des Stärkeren die Freiheit aller bedroht.

What if we could read the Devil's letters? What if we could hear two devils plotting to turn America into pure chaos and devastation—and found out their job was almost too easy? This book is a satirical, razor-sharp tour through the spiritual and political chaos of our current moment—told from the gleefully malicious perspective of two demons studying America like hunters tracking wounded prey. In a series of biting letters, Grimclaw and Festerling dissect the nation’s fractures, exploit its fears, and lay out their strategies for deepening division, distorting faith, and turning ...

Why did liberals support fascists? The answer may change how you see politics today. We hear it repeatedly, especially in left-wing circles, sometimes as an accusation, sometimes as a historical diagnosis: that liberalism is the antechamber of fascism. A provocation, certainly. But is it also true? This essay investigates a disturbing pattern that recurs throughout the twentieth century—and resurfaces in the present. From Mussolini to Hitler, from Pinochet to Bolsonaro, a certain liberal tradition did not prevent the rise of authoritarian regimes: it enabled them. Sometimes through ...

A Three Part Solution to The State, is a collaborative effort by The Office of Sedition Subversion and Sabotage (OSSS) and the Lego Distribution Network (LDN), to do just that. To briefly explain what needs to be done and what should be avoided in the process. It is written as a provisional manual because it is intended to be updated and modified as circumstances change. And it is intentionally written in such a way as to not glorify an individual personality. This is not a book written to fluff a writer’s ego while filling his pockets with cash and filling his calendar with speaking ...

The Republican House Divided is the first comprehensive study of the relationships between the Republican Party and Civil War memory in the twentieth century. Tim Galsworthy reveals how rival Republicans deployed Civil War memory to support, oppose, and ultimately shape the GOP's transformation, during the civil rights era, into a racially conservative party.

The Dark Enlightenment and Project 2025: A 2025 Annual Report is one of the most arresting works of political fiction in a generation—a rigorously constructed, cinematic, and chillingly plausible portrait of a nation transformed from within. Structured as a forensic corporate audit, this book reads like Succession fused with 1984, rendered with the analytical density of a RAND white paper. Its bureaucratic calm is its terror: every chapter unfolds with the precision of an official document, yet every sentence reveals the slow-motion collapse of democratic autonomy. What makes this work ...

Why can’t the world’s richest, most powerful democracy beat a one-party authoritarian state? The answer isn’t simple but it’s brutally honest. China plans in centuries. America argues in news cycles. One builds high-speed rail, megacities, and global supply chains. The other builds outrage, political deadlock, and culture wars. This book tears apart the myths, excuses, and illusions on both sides and confronts the uncomfortable truth: China isn’t winning because America is weak. China is winning because America refuses to get its act together. Inside these pages, you’ll find a ...
