  Whether a child has been in a loving and supportive home from day one or has been bounced from one house to another in the foster care system, parenting them is messy. A former street kid, Peter Mutabazi knows what it feels like to grow up in a world where love, caring, and kindness are nowhere to be found.

  The Outline Of Sanity

  G. K. Chesterton

  The experiments of both Capitalism and Communism are almost complete, and they both lead to one big organization controlling everything you do. In 1925, when this book was first published, it was true, and it is even truer today.If you desire an alternative, consider this book, which considers Distributism, a philosophy whereby the actual people own the actual means of production, and produce and sustain themselves with it. A philosophy summed up in Chesterton's famous proposal of "Three acres and a cow" as being catalyst to an ideal peasant state.For such a simple idea, it has proven very contrary to the ideas of those in power, which is to say, to those who want power.  But for the rest of us, for the sane humans who desire peace and liberty, this book is a call to action against monopoly and the inevitability of global standardization, which the magazines call the Supply Chain and the Bible might call Babel and Babylon. Narrated in an accent based upon Chesterton's own, this performance expresses Chesterton's words as he himself might have, delivering them to an audience of his time.

  What is it like to be a woman at the forefront of political life?
  Discover the compelling narratives of women leading the charge in Welsh politics through the ground-breaking initiative by Archif Menywod Cymru/Women's Archive Wales. Dive into candid interviews with trailblazers from the Welsh Assembly, which preceded the Senedd, and was the first UK government to achieve gender parity in 2003. From the Social Services & Welfare Wales Act led by Gwenda Thomas, to the Wellbeing of Future Generations Act led by Jane Davidson, explore the stories of their political motivations, role models and how they navigated the challenges of balancing family life with political representation and their civic responsibilities.
  Setting the Record Straight stands as an essential record of Wales's political evolution. A work of significant importance, it not only pays tribute to the accomplishments of these remarkable women, but also envisions a future where women of all ages and backgrounds continue to play a central role in shaping the policies and governance of Wales.
  "It would have been an absolute scandal not to have captured these rich oral interviews from some genuine political pioneers. Without projects like this, we would continue to be restricted to seeing politics through an exclusively male lens. This fine and readable collection of interviews is not just enjoyable and enlightening, but invaluable to understanding devolution and women's history in Wales too." Professor Laura McAllister

  Richard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 - April 22, 1994) was the 37th president of the United States, serving from 1969 to 1974. A member of the Republican Party, he previously served as a representative and senator from California and was the 36th vice president from 1953 to 1961 under President Dwight D. Eisenhower. His five years in the White House saw reduction of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, détente with the Soviet Union and China, the first crewed Moon landings, and the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency and Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Nixon's second term ended early, when he became the only US president to resign from office, as a result of the Watergate scandal.

  Has Populism Won? - The War on...

  Has populism won? Two experts show us how and why this disturbing global political trend has taken root and what it will take to turn the tide
  		 
  From Trump’s America to Putin’s Russia, and from Poland to the Philippines, rapid change and rising inequality have fueled a retreat into tribalist nationalism fed by a fear of being left behind. Populist leaders tap into this fear, with empty promises of looking out for the little guy and promising a return to national greatness. This is happening in countries across the globe and the political spectrum, arising in the right and the left alike. So why are we so susceptible to this pernicious political style at this moment? How did we get here? Will we get back to more even-handed governments? And more importantly, how has the global insurgency captured high offices across the globe, winning election after election? And more importantly, if Putin is defeated in his unprovoked war on Ukraine, will vociferous publics turn against the insurgency? Liberal democracy is at a turning point, as system smashers aren’t about to go quietly into the night, and there are few viable alternatives in the wings.
  		 
  Political scientists Drache and Froese have turned original research into a compelling analysis of the rise of populism and reveal what it will take to douse the flames. This is an essential read for anyone concerned about the encroachments on freedom and the rule of law around the world.
