Pocahontas - The Real History of...

Kelly Mass

Pocahontas was a Native American woman from the Powhatan-speaking tribe, most famous for her connection to the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia. She was the daughter of Powhatan, the powerful chief of Tsenacommacah, a confederation of about 30 Algonquian-speaking tribes in the Tidewater region of Virginia. Powhatan held dominion over a vast territory, which made Pocahontas a figure of significant influence within her own people’s complex political and social systems. 
In 1613, during a conflict between the Powhatan Confederacy and the English settlers, Pocahontas was captured by the English. She was held hostage for ransom in an effort to leverage peace negotiations with her father. During her captivity, Pocahontas experienced a profound transformation, converting to Christianity and being baptized with the name Rebecca. Her conversion was seen as an opportunity by the English to showcase their success in "civilizing" the native population.

Democracy Rules

Jan-Werner Müller

A much-anticipated guide to saving democracy, from one of our most essential political thinkers. 
 
 
 
Everyone knows that democracy is in trouble, but do we know what democracy actually is? Jan-Werner Müller, author of the widely translated and acclaimed What Is Populism?, takes us back to basics in Democracy Rules. In this short, elegant volume, he explains how democracy is founded not just on liberty and equality, but also on uncertainty. The latter will sound unattractive at a time when the pandemic has created unbearable uncertainty for so many. But it is crucial for ensuring democracy's dynamic and creative character, which remains one of its signal advantages over authoritarian alternatives that seek to render politics (and individual citizens) completely predictable. 
 
 
 
Müller shows that we need to re-invigorate the intermediary institutions that have been deemed essential for democracy's success ever since the nineteenth century: political parties and free media. Contrary to conventional wisdom, these are not spent forces in a supposed age of post-party populist leadership and post-truth. Müller suggests concretely how democracy's critical infrastructure of intermediary institutions could be renovated, re-empowering citizens while also preserving a place for professionals such as journalists and judges.
