Las democracias liberales de Occidente están bajo asedio y el auge del autoritarismo es una cuestión que debería preocuparnos a todos. En El ocaso de la democracia, Anne Applebaum—premio Pulitzer y una de las primeras historiadoras en alertar sobre las peligrosas tendencias antidemocráticas en Occidente—expone de forma clara y concisa las trampas del nacionalismo y la autocracia y nos explica por qué los sistemas políticos con mensajes simples y radicales son tan atractivos.

Publisher's Summary
Explora la fascinante vida de Alexander Hamilton.
Alexander Hamilton es una de las figuras más extraordinarias de la historia de Estados Unidos. Extraordinario pensador, líder militar y reformador político, fue la mano derecha de George Washington y quizás la figura más importante en la configuración de la Constitución. Sus políticas y prácticas en el gobierno colocaron a los Estados Unidos en un camino de riqueza comercial y estabilidad económica. Sus ideas aún resuenan en la poderosa nación que ayudó a crear.
En su tiempo, Hamilton fue una figura divisoria. Un extremista político que se enemistó con las partes conservadoras de la nueva república mientras protegía a sus antiguos oponentes. El hombre protagonista del primer escándalo sexual de la nación. Un operador político cuyas acciones enfurecieron a sus oponentes y, eventualmente, lo llevaron al duelo que le costó la vida.
Fue una vida extraordinaria, más extraordinaria si cabe por los orígenes de Hamilton. Era un forastero, un inmigrante del Caribe que llegó a Nueva York para comenzar una nueva vida. Al hacerlo, ayudó a dar forma al marco político y al comercio en América. En retrospectiva, lo sorprendente de su fama no es su resurgimiento, sino el hecho de que tardase tanto tiempo en ser ampliamente reconocido.
Este libro cuenta la historia de Alexander Hamilton. La historia de una nación nacida de la sangre, la lucha y en el dinamismo que los inmigrantes trajeron consigo.
Este libro incluye historias y hechos fascinantes sobre Alexander Hamilton
- Infancia en el Caribe
- Educación y búsqueda de trabajo
- Carrera militar
- Primeros pasos en política
- Participación en la campaña electoral de 1796
- Tiempo en la Oficina Pública

- Affair con Mary Reynolds
- Legado
Además, Alexander Hamilton también jugó un papel importante en

History chiefly remembers Martin Van Buren as the eighth president of the United States (1837– 1841). He was also, however, notable for achieving many firsts in American politics. He was the first American president to be born a citizen of the country, and not a British subject. He was the first Dutchman and the first man without Anglo-Saxon ancestry to serve as president. He was the first and only American president to have been raised in a language other than English.

Los vascos viven en una porción de los Pirineos en el extremo suroeste de Francia y al otro lado de la cordillera en el centro-norte de España, centrados en las ciudades de Pamplona y Donostia. Mientras que algunos viven fuera de esta área actualmente, muchos todavía llaman a esta región su hogar. Estas resistentes personas han vivido en las estribaciones de las escarpadas montañas de los Pirineos desde tiempos prehistóricos, y siguen allí hasta hoy.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 41
Germany is a relatively young nation-state. United in 1871, it's even younger than the United States. However, the territories inhabited by the Germanic people have a rich history that reaches far back in prehistory and antiquity. Located in the heart of Europe, Germany witnessed centuries of conflicts, immigration, and negotiations. Consequently, its shape, size, and ethnicity changed throughout history. The territories which constitute Germany today were often war zones, and at times they would join forces against a common enemy or break apart due to internal conflicts.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 78
Africa is the continent where the first humans were born. They explored the vast land and produced the first tools. And although we migrated from that continent, we never completely abandoned it. From the beginning of time, humans lived and worked in Africa, leaving evidence of their existence in the sands of the Sahara Desert and the valleys of the great rivers such as the Nile and the Niger.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 68
One of the darkest and cruelest chapters in the history of the United States occurred when the nation’s young government decided to remove the native peoples from their lands in the name of profit. Having helped settlers for hundreds of years, five Native American tribes found it increasingly more difficult to relate to, and trust, the country that had once acted as their allies. The native peoples had fought alongside the Americans to gain freedom from England, the nation that the colonists deemed oppressive and unfair.

Welcome to the summer of 1985 in Philadelphia, when the city was rocked—in almost every sense of the word—by two unprecedented events: Mayor W. Wilson Goode’s May 13 decision to bomb the headquarters of MOVE, a controversial Philadelphia-based radical communal organization, and the July 13 Live Aid concert, where international rock royalty convened in Philly to raise money for victims of the Ethiopian famine. Separated by just two months and eight miles, these events would showcase both the best and the worst of the so-called City of Brotherly Love.

Susan Wise Bauer provides both sweeping scope and vivid attention to the individual lives that give flesh to abstract assertions about human history. This narrative history employs the methods of "history from beneath" - literature, epic traditions, private letters, and accounts - to connect kings and leaders with the lives of those they ruled.
