Description:
Sydney: Allen & Unwin, 2006. 1st Australian ed.. Paperback trade, very good condition, minor edgewear. 259 pp. George Soros made billions anticipating seismic changes in the financial markets and has used that money to try and change the world. In this book he brings that commitment to the parlous state of America since the 2001 terrorist attacks. He offers a strong critique of President George W. Bush's policies, particularly the War on Terror. They fall short in the arenas most important to Soros: democracy, human rights and open society. As a survivor of the Holocaust and a life-long proponent of free expression, Soros understands the meaning of freedom. And yet his differences with Bush, another proponent of freedom, are profound. He reflects on why the Democrats may have lost the high ground on these values issues and how they might reclaim it.

Melbourne: Melbourne University Press (MUP), 2017. Paperback large trade, as new condition. 261 pp. Mark Bray, an historian and former Occupy Wall Street organizer, provides a unique look inside the Antifa movement, its history and beliefs, based on interviews with anti-fascists worldwide. So long as there has been fascism, there has been anti-fascism (antifa). Born out of resistance to Mussolini and Hitler in Europe during the 1920s and 30s, the antifa movement has burst into the headlines amid opposition to the Trump presidency, the rise of the alt-right, and the resurgence of white supremacist groups such as the Ku Klux Klan.

Description:
London: Granta Books, 1997. 1st U.K. ed.. Paperback thick octavo, very good condition, pages faintly toned, minor edgewear. 416 pp. Edward W. Said brings together history, philosophy, structuralism and critical theory in a stimulating work of literary criticism. The author argues that during the 18th and 19th centuries, the novel was the major attempt in Western literary culture to give beginnings an authorizing, institutional and specialized role in art, experience and knowledge. He traces this idea through the late 19th and early 20th centuries - to Freud's discoveries and the novels of modernist authors - and examines the question of beginnings in critical discourse, and the work of the French structuralists. He combines philosophy and belles-lettres, and does not separate literature from history, philosophy and social discourse, thereby broadening the role of criticism from celebration and orthodoxy to re-experiencing and questioning.

Description:
New York: Touchstone / Simon & Schuster, 2001. Reprint ed.. Paperback small thick octavo, very good condition, minor edgewear, reminder stripe. 541 pp. Robert Putnam (professor of public policy, Harvard University) explains that Americans once bowled in leagues, usually after work - but no longer. This symbolizes a significant social change. Data from recent surveys show how Americans have become increasingly disconnected from family, friends, neighbours, and social structures such as the PTA, church, recreation clubs, political parties. The shrinking access to the 'social capital' that is the reward of communal activity and community sharing is a serious threat to civic and personal health. Lack of social capital also strongly predicts crime rates. In the past, 100 years ago, America's stock of social capital was at an ebb, reduced by urbanization, industrialization, and immigration that uprooted Americans from their networks, similar to today. However, faced with this challenge, the… Read More

He illustrates his arguments with new information on headline events, among them the government and media treatment of the Gulf War (1990s), and the Spycatcher and Rushdie affairs. These provide us some chilling and prescient lessons for the future. We get the governments and institutions we deserve, and no brainwashing can be effective without collusion, implicit or otherwise, of the brainwashed.
