Rodriguez A: Donald Trump

Donald Trump

Our 45th and 47th President

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER USA TODAY BESTSELLER A behind-the-scenes story of the last sixty years of American politics, told with purpose and humor by a political legend who worked with ten presidents, made deals with both Obama and Trump, and believes that serving in public office is the best way to help the largest number of people and to keep our Republic from falling apart. “To read Lamar Alexander’s vivid and surprising memoir is to be in conversation with a man who knows how to tell a great story.” —Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author “What a wonderful and refreshing memoir! Lamar Alexander has been a gift to us—more interested in getting things done and improving the lives of others than in grabbing headlines and bashing an opponent. Bravo!” —Ken Burns, Filmmaker, The American Revolution “Revealing and highly entertaining...takes us inside some of the most important moments in our nation’s history.” —Karl Rove, Sr. Advisor to President George W. Bush Can we survive this?” worried friends ask Lamar Alexander. A US senator who started in JFK’s Justice Department, worked in the Nixon White House, turned down serving as GOP Watergate counsel and as Ford’s campaign manager, walked for six months across Tennessee to become governor, lost two runs for president, and served as a university president and education secretary before winning three senate terms—Lamar Alexander answers that question with a resounding, “Yes.” Over nearly six decades, Alexander saw the public arena from as many angles as any living American. With wry humor and wisdom, he reminds us that Americans have asked this question in times more troubling than today—through wars, economic panics, pandemics, and social upheaval. Alexander paints insider portraits of the ten presidents he worked with—including the one best suited to the job, the most skillful politician, most accomplished in foreign affairs, most “normal,” and another who was on his way to being the most consequential. His book is for Americans hungry for optimism and leadership. It will inspire anyone who wants to serve in public office but doesn’t know how to start. It is a blueprint for those who want to join the 519,682 Americans already elected to office and the millions who work with them. “I woke up every day thinking I might do something good for my state or country and went to bed most nights thinking that I had.” —Lamar Alexander

From JFK to Trump

The Education of a Senator

San Diego Rising is the definitive biography of a man whose character was as unyielding as the stone he quarried. Henry G. Fenton's story began on the windswept Iowa prairie with a dying father's mandate to his six-year-old son: "Take care of your mother and sisters." That single promise propelled Fenton through a brief stay in a San Francisco orphanage to the rugged San Pasqual Valley, where he herded hogs while barefoot and learned survival from Kumeyaay mentors.From mule skinner to industrial titan, Fenton outworked his rivals to supply the rock, sand, and gravel that paved modern San Diego. Yet, his legacy transcends the concrete foundations of the city. He was a preservationist ahead of his time, whose insight and deep historical convictions led him to quietly reserve key acreages for future generations of Californians. Some of those locations included Mission Bay, the San Pasqual Valley, and the land that would become the Safari Park.Drawing from a treasure trove of century-old artifacts in a privately held archive, Sandra E. Bonura uncovers a visionary who turned personal grief into public joy through his legendary "Old-Timers" picnics.San Diego Rising is more than a rags-to-riches tale. It is the portrait of a boy who never broke his word and a man who built a city with his heart.

The Henry G. Fenton Story

San Diego Rising

Rewriting the Canadian Constitution imagines how Canada’s Constitution could be rethought and reshaped through amendment. Assuming that broad constitutional change is possible, this volume brings together leading scholars from law, political science, and philosophy to examine four key areas of reform: the federal-provincial division of powers, democratic institutions, the unwritten constitution, and the rules of amendment themselves. The resulting contributions are rigorous, creative, and critical. They develop innovative models of shared jurisdiction, propose ways to strengthen democratic accountability, assess deficits in representation and participation – particularly for Indigenous peoples, evaluate reforms of existing procedures, and much more. Taken together, the collection advances a form of constitutional possibilism: a commitment to imagining what Canada’s Constitution could become. Reflecting a diverse set of methodological, theoretical, and disciplinary perspectives, the essays highlight gaps and tensions in Canada’s current constitutional framework while offering concrete, hopeful visions for reform. Rewriting the Canadian Constitution will engage students, scholars, lawyers, judges, advocates, and policymakers alike. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the past, present, or future of the Canadian Constitution.

This stunning cultural and personal reclamation of Black history and Black botanical mastery offers up lessons from the natural world shared through the stories of long-lived trees. The histories of trees in America are also the histories of Black Americans. Pecan trees were domesticated by an enslaved African named Antoine; sycamore trees were both havens and signposts for people trying to escape enslavement; poplar trees are historically associated with lynching; and willow bark has offered the gift of medicine. These trees, and others, testify not only to the complexity of the Black American narrative but also to a heritage of Black botanical expertise that, like Native American traditions, predates the United States entirely. In When Trees Testify, award-winning plant biologist Beronda L. Montgomery explores the ways seven trees-as well as the cotton shrub-are intertwined with Black history and culture. She reveals how knowledge surrounding these trees has shaped America since the very beginning. As Montgomery shows, trees are material witnesses to the lives of enslaved Africans and their descendants. Combining the wisdom of science and history with stories from her own path to botany, Montgomery talks to majestic trees, and in this unique and compelling narrative, they answer.

Mercatus Studies in Political and Social Economy

“In Disrupting Order, authors Nona and Virgil Storr provide a compelling reassessment of the significance of the Burma Road Riot.… Beyond a solid theoretical intervention, the authors are to be commended for the depth of archival and ethnographic research that makes this study an excellent contribution to Bahamian social-political history and larger studies on public disturbances.”—Christopher Curry, author of&nbsp;Freedom and Resistance
"This book provides a fascinating account of the 1942 riot that occurred in the Bahamas.”—Matthew Moran, author of&nbsp;The Republic and the Riots
“It does not glorify unrest but provides a thoughtful framework to understand why such moments arise and how they shape the trajectory of a people.”—J. Kwasi Thompson, Member of Parliament for East Grand Bahama and Former Minister of State for Grand Bahama and Finance
Are riots more than just breakdowns of order? Are rioters just violently and chaotically disrupting the status quo or are they individuals acting together in a surprisingly orderly manner? In Disrupting Order,&nbsp;Nona Martin Storr and Virgil Henry Storr argue that riots are rule-governed, self-generating, emergent phenomena. Viewing riots as what they call “tensive emergent orders” offers a grammar for discussing riots that foregrounds the motivations and actions of individual rioters, the tacit rules that rioters follow, and the socio-political causes and consequences of riots. Applying this grammar to the 1942 riot that occurred in the Bahamas, Storr and Storr demonstrate how the 1942 riot was not just a momentary outburst but a watershed event in the country’s history, ushering in far-reaching socio-political changes. As we move into an era of frequent extreme protests,&nbsp;Disrupting Order&nbsp;urges us to rethink why the threatened and marginalized sometimes speak through riots and gives us a framework to assess the impact of their speaking in this way.
Nona Martin Storr&nbsp;is Senior Affiliated Scholar at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. Her writings on riots have appeared in the Journal of Caribbean History,&nbsp;Island Studies Journal, and&nbsp;Space and Culture.
Virgil Henry Storr is Don C. Lavoie Senior Fellow in the Mercatus Center's F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics and Economics, and Professor of Economics at George Mason University. Storr’s previous books with Palgrave Macmillan include&nbsp;Do Markets Corrupt Our Morals?&nbsp;and&nbsp;Community Revival in the Wake of Disaster.

Education in Latin America and the Caribbean

This book centers on the stories and histories of buen vivir ("good living") in education in Ecuador, focusing on how Indigenous and Afrodiasporic Peoples have strategically engaged with state educational initiatives to advance their own epistemic and political projects. It examines the ideas of buen vivir in Fundamental Education programs destined to "better the lives" of the rural population in Ecuador in the 1960s and 1970s. After the bureaucratization of buen vivir in Ecuador and Bolivia, a regional wave of critique problematized the idea, yet the historical resonances of governmental uses of buen vivir with previous modernization projects have been understudied. Moving beyond a national framework, it offers a comparative and transnational perspective on how the notion of rural has been constructed through modernizing reason. The education experiences explored here are memory on strategies of resistance against dispossession and racism, as well as spaces of organization and affirmation of knowledge.

An entertaining and inspiring early reader celebrating the beloved author of Anne of Green Gables, featuring full colour illustrations. "You see I had learned the first, last, and middle lesson?'never give up!'" --L. M. Montgomery Before she wrote the bestselling Anne of Green Gables, Lucy Maud Montgomery was just a girl from Prince Edward Island, dreaming of being a writer. She Was the Story Girl tells the fascinating true story of young Maud's difficult childhood and her unstoppable enthusiasm for writing. Before Maud was two years old, her mother died and her father moved out west, leaving her to be raised by her strict grandparents. They didn't believe children should read or write stories. But Maud couldn't resist a good tale. She looked for inspiration everywhere, from gossip overheard at the post office to ghostly laundry hanging on the line. Everything she experienced or imagined helped her become the beloved writer we know today. With informational sidebars and charming, full-colour illustrations throughout, this early chapter book will inspire budding young writers and kindred spirits alike.

How did racism come to be? And how does the relation of race and class figure in this history? What role does religion play? Just as race is not a biological reality, racism is not inherent to human nature. It was invented and sustained through historical encounters, economies, politics, and religious traditions. This article compares the history of racism in the United States to current developments, highlighting not just divide-and-conquer tactics but also "unite-and-conquer" strategies that reveal deeper complexities as well as potential solutions.

Palgrave Studies in Economic History

This book offers the first comprehensive analysis of the transformation of the Brazilian coffee economy since 1960, one of the most significant yet understudied developments in modern economic history. Moving beyond classic accounts of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century plantation expansion, it traces how Brazil responded to crises through state intervention, technological innovation and institutional reform. Drawing on economic history, development economics and agricultural studies, the authors examine how mechanization, scientific research, crop diversification and shifting regional production patterns reshaped the sector and enabled Brazil to maintain its position as the world’s leading coffee producer.Situating Brazilian coffee within global commodity chains and changing patterns of consumption, the book explores the transition from a state-controlled system to a competitive, market-oriented agribusiness embedded in global trade networks. It also highlights the emergence of new production frontiers and value-added industries, including roasting and soluble coffee. By combining regional analysis with a broader political economy perspective, this study provides a vital contribution to debates on agricultural modernization, export-led development and globalization in Latin America. It will be valuable reading for scholars in economic history, Latin American studies, agricultural economics and global development.&nbsp;Herbert S. Klein

WerkstattGeschichte

WerkstattGeschichte ist eine Zeitschrift, in der über Geschichte und ihre Akteur*innen wie über historisches Forschen und Schreiben reflektiert wird. Sie bietet Platz, konventionelle Perspektiven zu durchbrechen und neue Formen der Darstellung zu erproben. Die Zeitschrift bleibt der Sozialgeschichte verbunden, legt aber Wert darauf, die 'große Geschichte' aus alltagsgeschichtlicher Sicht zu befragen. Im aktuellen Heft, herausgegeben von Frank Wolff und Jochen Lingelbach, widmen sich die Beiträger*innen der Interdependenz von Grenze und Gesellschaft. Ausgehend von der These, dass das Geschehen an staatlichen Außengrenzen Rückwirkungen auf innergesellschaftliche Prozesse hat, analysieren sie diese als Grenzinternalisierung gefasste Wechselwirkung.
