Trent England, "Why We Must Defend the Electoral College " English | ISBN: 1641771496 | 2020 | 40 pages | EPUB | 398 KB Is the Electoral College "racist" and a "scam" as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claims? Or was Alexander Hamilton right when he declared that "if it be not perfect, it is at least excellent"? In this Broadside, Trent England explains why we have the Electoral College, how it shapes American politics, and why preserving it is necessary to maintain our republican form of government. With an organized campaign trying to hijack the constitution's state-by-state system in favor of a direct election, now is the time for Americans to come to the defense of the Electoral College.  Daniel M. Shea, "Why Vote?: Essential Questions About the Future of Elections in America" English | ISBN: 113861792X | 2019 | 258 pages | EPUB | 540 KB For nearly 200 years, Americans have pinned the democratic character of their system on elections. In many ways, we have become an election-crazed nation, ever-hoping that the next grand contest or the next great candidate will save the day. But tectonic shifts abound - changes that are distorting the nature of the process. From the rise of fear-centered partisanship, new limits on voter access to the polls, the omnipotence of social media, declining standards of objectivity, Russian interference, the reemergence of the partisan press, the growing weight of elites and more, elections - our "grand democratic feasts" - are transforming before our eyes. We've reached a precarious intersection, and it is no stretch to say the future of the republic is at stake.

Thies, "Why Containment Works: Power, Proliferation, and Preventive War " English | ISBN: 150174948X | 2020 | 240 pages | EPUB | 625 KB Why Containment Works examines the conduct of American foreign policy during and after the Cold War through the lens of applied policy analysis. Wallace J. Thies argues that the Bush Doctrine after 2002 was a theory of victory―a coherent strategic view that tells a state how best to transform scarce resources into useful military assets, and how to employ those assets in conflicts. He contrasts prescriptions derived from the Bush Doctrine with an alternative theory of victory, one based on containment and deterrence, which US presidents employed for much of the Cold War period. There are, he suggests, multiple reasons for believing that containment was working well against Saddam Hussein's Iraq after the first Gulf War and that there was no need to invade Iraq in 2003. |
