How Conservatives Built a Movement Against the Press

Decisions are everywhere--from a group's choice of pizza to a decision on a family vacation to the elections of political leaders. Central to the functioning of our organizations is the belief that these decisions reflect the wishes of voters. Yet most voting rules are unreliable and can lead to unfair outcomes. And, while a large body of academic literature describes the flaws and limitations of standard voting methods, little is known about why they occur. In Fair Voting Methods, Donald G. Saari explores the difficulties that have plagued social choice theory for over seventy-five years. Focusing on ranked choice voting and group decision-making, Saari expands on Arrow's impossibility theorem and presents a more precise statement: all standard voting rules either fail to always rank the candidates to determine who is preferred to whom, or the voting outcomes can result in inferior choices that are not what the voters wanted. Saari then identifies and resolves the structures that negatively impact voting systems. While Arrow's seminal result asserted that the problems of standard voting systems are unavoidable, Saari makes a bold and compelling case that there are indeed usable fair voting methods. He introduces one such method that achieves Arrow's objectives of always ranking candidates with outcomes that reflect voters' intent. The book concludes by applying insights from voting theory into other topics where parts are also assembled into wholes, including judgement aggregation, corporate structures, crime prevention, the US Electoral College, and standard scientific procedures.

This book examines climate change and the need for advertising creatives to think and create strategically in order to educate about the human role in climate adaptation.&nbsp;As more brands and organizations feel the economic and cultural effects of climate realities, there is an urgent need for the advertising industry to offer smarter, creative approaches to messaging about this phenomenon. Creatives must use their ability to translate complex issues into messages that resonate with multiple audiences while&nbsp;bridge the gap between consumers and climate understanding. The author argues that brands and corporations have a social responsibilty to provide this value, thereby fighting misinformation and emboldening citizens to work toward adaptive behaviors with understanding of basic climate science. Through the themes of complexity, creativity, and courage, this book synthesizes theory on audience engagement and discusses how to frame the climate issue effectively.

Our greatest challenge is upon us. Climate change realities call for adaptation and new ways of understanding the world. For brands and their agency advocates, this demands a courageous approach to crafting work that engages a range of audiences, people often polarized and politically divided. How can the vibrant creative industry play a leading role in helping humanity adapt to climate change? What climate science resources exist that aid in developing smart communication platforms? How does a creative strategist grow skills necessary for this most important assignment?&nbsp;Brave Work, a guide for creatives in all career stages, develops a mission statement for creative leadership in these complicated times.

Brave Work in the Age of Climate Change

The first history of US federal law enforcement from the nation's founding to the creation of the Justice Department in 1870, showing how federal prosecutions have always been shaped by local institutions and interests. The public imagines the Department of Justice and its agencies as mighty juggernauts. The reality is strikingly different. The FBI is barely larger than the Chicago Police Department, federal courts handle far fewer cases than state courts do, and federal prosecutors rely heavily on state and municipal authorities. The feds cannot function without local support, which means that the projects on which DOJ intervention is most needed-the ones that local communities oppose or don't care about-are also those least likely to succeed. This is no accident. Fragile Authority shows that this weakness is built into the structure of federal enforcement. To understand why, Daniel Richman traces the present-day workings of the DOJ all the way back to the nation's founding. The system was so circumscribed at the start that districts went years without a single conviction; enforcement efforts were often just performances of sovereignty for foreign audiences. And while a stronger enforcement apparatus emerged from the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act, its protection of Black civil rights during Reconstruction lasted only a few years before the federal retreat. After its creation in 1870, the Justice Department concealed its limitations by turning the agendas of local police-such as prosecuting gangsters, car thefts, and prostitution-into ostensibly national priorities. For better and for worse, federal law enforcement missions without local buy-in remain rare and difficult to sustain. The resistance to President Trump's immigration enforcement surge in sanctuary jurisdictions showed yet again that this norm is not easily broken.

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.

Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49 Transportation 200-299, Revised as of October 1, 2025

The 'fresh start' that is afforded individual debtors through the discharge doctrines of American bankruptcy law has, to date, defied justification by a single normative principle or theoretical paradigm. The justificatory accounts that have been advanced either fail to explain core doctrines that have long defined the right of discharge or invite theoretical challenges that suggest that their descriptive virtues are swamped by their normative or conceptual shortcomings. This book presents a taxonomy of traditional justifications of bankruptcy and subjects them to critical evaluation. It then seeks to offer a new justification of bankruptcy's 'fresh start' doctrines-one that takes its inspiration from a quite different moral tradition than those that have informed past efforts to justify and explain our enduring societal willingness to release people from onerous financial obligations. The book argues that personal debt relief is fully vindicated not by a utilitarian theory, nor by a distributive justice theory, nor by a retributive theory, nor by any other rights- or duties-based theory that is preoccupied with moral claims that particular creditors or debtors might proffer. Rather, the long-standing institution of discharge in bankruptcy is best explained by an aretaic, or virtue-based, theory that concerns itself with the obligations that the rest of us have to be charitable towards those who are unable to repay their debts. The fresh start that bankruptcy gives to those who have been shackled by overwhelming debt is justified not by its effects on creditors, debtors, or future market actors, but by its satisfaction of the demands of individual charity to which all citizens are subject. Bankruptcy's discharge of the debts of those who have become financially desperate is best thought to be an institution that aggregates others' demands of good character so as to permit citizens for whom debt-forgiveness is a personal virtue to live in a society that fulfils that virtue.

Why should debtors who default on their obligations be forgiven? Focusing on this central question at the heart of bankruptcy, this book challenges the theoretical foundations of insolvency law, exploring the economic and moral rationales for the law's decision to wipe the slate clean.
