Democracy in America - Insights into American democracy: societal political and cultural analysis

Alexis de Tocqueville

Sinopsis

In "Democracy in America," Alexis de Tocqueville undertakes an ambitious exploration of American society and its democratic principles during the early 19th century. Through a keen sociopolitical lens, Tocqueville employs a blend of empirical observation and philosophical inquiry, illustrated by his rich prose and analytical depth. The work manifests a unique literary style that intertwines narrative with profound reflections on equality, individualism, and the emerging social conditions of a nation grappling with the ideals of democracy, revealing both the strengths and inherent contradictions of the political system at that time. Tocqueville, a French aristocrat, was profoundly influenced by the tumultuous democratic movements in Europe and sought to comprehend the successful democratic experiment in the United States. His own background and experiences as a member of the French aristocracy under the specter of revolution provided him with a distinctive vantage point from which to scrutinize the dynamics of class, politics, and society. These insights culminate in a work that not only examines the American experience but also invites deeper contemplation of democracy as a global phenomenon. "Democracy in America" is an essential read for anyone interested in political science, sociology, or American history. Tocqueville's foresight into the challenges and possibilities of democratic governance remains strikingly relevant today, making this seminal text a cornerstone for understanding contemporary democratic societies. Engaging and thought-provoking, it prompts readers to reflect on the nature of equality, freedom, and the future of democracy.

The secret war in Ukraine

Jacques Baud

What forces are operating in the shadows of the war in Ukraine, both inside and outside the theater of operations? What clandestine operations have been going on for the past three years, unknown to the general public? How does the secret war between Russia and Western countries often spill over into terrorism? What assassinations have been carried out against oligarchs across Europe? How are Western intelligence services, particularly British, helping the Ukrainians? What is the presence of Ukrainian services in Russia? What has become of the American biological laboratories since 1922?...
To answer these questions and many others, Jacques Baud draws on official information, American, Western, Ukrainian and Russian documents. Between secret diplomacy and clandestine operations, the war in Ukraine was far more complex than the media portrayed it. 
Following on from the bestsellers Putin, the Master of the Game, Operation Z and Ukraine Between War and Peace and The Art of Russian War, whose analytical work has been acclaimed worldwide and whose books have been translated in many countries (USA, China, Japan, Korea, Great Britain, Germany -bestseller-, Russia, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Turkey, Brazil and the Arab countries), the author returns to the clandestine war that has been waged between Russia, Ukraine and Western countries for the past three years.

Periyar Select Speeches and...

Periyar

Social justice has always remained a preoccupation and concern, and even a passion, in the very mental make-up of the Tamil people. The history of Tamil down the ages shows that the socially oppressed and their rights to religious observances have always been upheld. The Tamils were therefore particularly impressed by the principles of Karl Marx. While upholding economic justice, the Tamils also asserted social justice. The emphasis of social justice shifted from a demand for religious rights to a demand for the right to education and social equality. At the same time the European Rationality also influenced the Tamil stock. So it was like a confluence of new sentiments, ideas, rationality and agnosticism that led to institutionalized ideological movements during the 19th and 20th centuries that characterized the tenor of the Tamil thought stream, politics, religion, social structure, empowerment and a revaluation of the traditional. Such institutionalization was best realized by the Dravidian Movement led by EV Ramasamy Naicker, reverently called Periyar. Periyar lived a long life and through and through he had been vociferous and influential. His writings and speeches run to thousands of pages. A few selected speeches and articles, which however are too little to represent the multifarious issues that Periyar addressed, have been presented in this audio book. The selection eliminates a couple of issues because certain causes that made Periyar address those issues no more exist in the Tamil society of the 20th and 21st centuries. The selected speeches and articles are from his corpus on the following issues.
1. திராவிடநாடு 2. கலைகள் 3. பொருளாதாரம் 4. சமுதாயம் 5. தத்துவம் 6. கிராம சீர்திருத்தம் 7. கல்வி 8. பகுத்தறிவு 9. தேசியம், இயக்கங்கள்
