Campaigns Inc.
Set against the changing and turbulent politics of California from the 1930s through the 1950s, Campaigns Inc.: Leone Baxter, Clem Whitaker, and the Invention of Political Consulting examines the life and work of Leone Baxter and her husband Clem Whitaker. During this era, Baxter and Whitaker invented and refined the field of campaign consulting, a form of public relations practice that manages reputation, image, and communication during a political campaign. This book details their work and the development of their successful political consulting firm Campaigns Inc. They worked for mainly conservative and Republican clients, and it was through this work that Campaigns Inc. set the standard for how campaigns would be structured and run through the next century. The book begins with an overview of Baxter and Whitaker's core philosophy of communication, campaigns, and politics. Cayce Myers details their early work in California's Central Valley and their first big campaign against Democratic nominee Upton Sinclair who ran for California Governor in 1934. The book then examines Baxter and Whitaker's campaign for the successful 1942 Gubernatorial candidacy of Earl Warren. The Warren campaign served as a template for building a campaign around a candidate and not a party. Following that election, Baxter and Whitaker's work transformed to focus on defeating compulsory health insurance reforms. They successfully defeated healthcare reform initiatives by California Governor Earl Warren and later President Harry Truman by shaping public sentiment against the specter of "socialized medicine."

Divided Unions
A comparative history of public and private sector unions from the Wagner Act of 1935 until today The 2011 battle in Wisconsin over public sector employees' collective bargaining rights occasioned the largest protests in the state since the Vietnam War. Protestors occupied the state capitol building for days and staged massive rallies in downtown Madison, receiving international news coverage. Despite an unprecedented effort to oppose Governor Scott Walker's bill, Act 10 was signed into law on March 11, 2011, stripping public sector employees of many of their collective bargaining rights and hobbling government unions in Wisconsin. By situating the events of 2011 within the larger history of public sector unionism, Alexis N. Walker demonstrates how the passage of Act 10 in Wisconsin was not an exceptional moment, but rather the culmination of events that began over eighty years ago with the passage of the Wagner Act in 1935. Although explicitly about government unions, Walker's book argues that the fates of public and private sector unions are inextricably linked. She contends that the exclusion of public sector employees from the foundation of private sector labor law, the Wagner Act, firmly situated private sector law at the national level, while relegating public sector employees' efforts to gain collective bargaining rights to the state and local levels. She shows how private sector unions benefited tremendously from the national-level protections in the law while, in contrast, public sector employees' efforts progressed slowly, were limited to union-friendly states, and the collective bargaining rights that they finally did obtain were highly unequal and vulnerable to retrenchment. As a result, public and private sector unions peaked at different times, preventing a large, unified labor movement. The legacy of the Wagner Act, according to Walker, is that labor remains geographically concentrated, divided by sector, and hobbled in its efforts to represent working Americans politically in today's era of rising economic inequality.

Divided by Choice
How race and capitalism shape education School choice programs--such as vouchers, education savings accounts, and tax credit scholarships--are surrounded by controversy, raising questions about their impact on student diversity and inequality. In this book, Ryane McAuliffe Straus takes up a core part of this divisive debate, exploring why charter schools are reshaping America's education system--and democracy--for the worse. Drawing on interviews with elected officials, policy entrepreneurs, parents, and activists in Albany, NY, Straus argues that charter schools are a poor alternative to failing public schools, ultimately worsening racial segregation under the guise of providing underprivileged students with access to better education. Taking a wide-ranging view, the author explores why parents, elected officials, and community activists may or may not choose to leave the public education system by enrolling their children in charter schools. Straus finds that when families of color leave public schools in favor of charter schools this removes their democratic voice and participation, diminishing their political power in a high-stakes area of public policy. Divided by Choice highlights the fundamental flaws of one solution to public education inequalities, at a time when racial tensions are at an all-time high.

Contesting Democratic Deficit
By 2024, the ten-year tenure of the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government had redefined power dynamics with centralized control and divisive rhetoric. Many felt democracy was slipping away. The Congress Party embarked on a tireless fight to restore hope in India's democracy amidst a decade of eroding trust in democratic institutions. In Contesting Democratic Deficit: An Inside Story of the 2024 Elections, Salman Khurshid, with Mritunjay Singh Yadav, casts aside the usual partisan talking points and examines the narrative of these volatile times. The authors begin by reflecting on a nation gripped by disillusionment-where economic disparities, social polarization, and institutional subversion cast a long shadow over its democratic fabric. Faced with this crisis, the Congress launched an unprecedented revival effort. From the emotionally charged Bharat Jodo Yatra that connected leaders with the people, to the historic formation of the INDIA alliance uniting diverse political forces, Khurshid and Yadav recount how Opposition parties rallied to defend the idea of an inclusive, pluralistic India. This pivotal election became a referendum on democracy itself, with society viewing it as an opportunity to reclaim constitutional values and reject authoritarianism.

Chasing Shadows
Instant Bestseller Like a John Le Carr矇 novel updated for the digital age, Chasing Shadows provides a gripping account of how the Citizen Lab, the world's foremost digital watchdog, has uncovered dozens of cyber espionage cases and protects people in countries around the world. Called "essential reading" by Margaret Atwood, it's a chilling reminder of the invisible invasions happening on smartphones and computers around the world. In this real-life spy thriller, cyber security expert Ronald Deibert details the unseemly marketplace for high-tech surveillance, professional disinformation, and computerized malfeasance. He reveals how his team of digital sleuths at the Citizen Lab have lifted the lid on dozens of covert operations targeting innocent citizens everywhere. Chasing Shadows provides a front-row seat to a dark underworld of digital espionage, disinformation, and subversion. There, autocrats and dictators peer into their targets' lives with the mere press of a button, spreading their tentacles of authoritarianism through a digital ecosystem that is insecure, poorly regulated, and prone to abuse. The activists, opposition figures, and journalists who dare to advocate for basic political rights and freedoms are hounded, arrested, tortured, and sometimes murdered. From the gritty streets of Guatemala City to the corridors of power in the White House, this compelling narrative traces the journey of the Citizen Lab as it evolved into a globally renowned source of counterintelligence for civil society. As this small team of investigators disarmed cyber mercenaries and helped to improve the digital security of billions of people worldwide, their success brought them, too, into the same sinister crosshairs that plagued the victims they worked to protect. Deibert recounts how the Lab exposed the world's pre-eminent cyber-mercenary firm, Israel-based NSO Group--the creators of the phone-hacking marvel Pegasus--in a series of human rights abuses, from domestic spying scandals in Spain, Poland, Hungary, and Greece to its implication in the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018.
The Celebrity Illusion
The Celebrity Illusion How the Democratic Party Lost the 2024 Presidential RaceIn 2024, America didn't just lose an election-it lost its reflection.What stared back at voters wasn't a party grounded in working-class values or pragmatic solutions. It was a brand-a curated spectacle powered by viral videos, celebrity endorsements, and empty symbolism. The Celebrity Illusion is a political autopsy of a campaign that mistook popularity for purpose and influence for impact.For over a decade, the Democratic Party aligned itself with Hollywood elites, Silicon Valley tech giants, and social media influencers, creating a powerful fusion of progressive politics and pop culture. But in the race that mattered most, the razzle-dazzle failed. Despite dominating airwaves and trending across platforms, the votes didn't come. The working class stayed home-or worse, voted Republican. The heartland saw through the show. And the party that tried to entertain its way to the White House suffered a brutal, avoidable defeat.This isn't just a book about Democrats. It's about America's growing disconnection from both major parties-a country where branding now trumps governing, and citizens are left desperate for substance over spectacle.Written by a scientist, educator, and former government insider, The Celebrity Illusion blends personal insight with sharp political analysis. It explores how the real concerns of Americans-rising rent, unaffordable groceries, medical debt, crumbling schools-were drowned out by curated tweets, viral soundbites, and tone-deaf celebrity surrogates. It dissects how identity politics, media echo chambers, and cultural overreach alienated the very voters Democrats once fought to represent.This book is not partisan. It's urgent.Inside, you'll discover: How modern campaigns became more about followers than follow-throughWhy influencers can't replace real policy experienceHow Democrats lost touch with working-class votersWhat happens when political theater overshadows real leadershipAnd what must change before trust in democracy crumbles for goodWhether you're progressive, conservative, or politically homeless, The Celebrity Illusion is a call to pull back the curtain and confront the hard truths behind America's political spectacle. Who really speaks for the people? And can we rebuild trust before our democracy becomes just another scripted performance?

Disability, Happiness and the Welfare State
This book looks at disability as an evolving social phenomenon. Disability is created through the interaction between persons with impairments and their environment.Exploring these experiences of persons with disabilities and discussing universality and particularity in our understanding of assumed development and normalcy, it takes Finland, which has been chosen repeatedly as the happiest country in the world as its case- study. Using disability as a critical lens helps to demystify Finland that has the positive reputation of a Welfare State. By identifying different kinds of discrimination against persons with disabilities as well as successful examples of disability inclusion, it shows that when looking Finland from the perspective of persons with disabilities, inequality and poverty have been collective experiences of too many of them.It will be of interest to all scholars and students of disability studies, sociology, social policy, social work, political science, health and well-being studies and Nordic studies more broadly.The Open Access version of this book, available at http: //www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

What Is Critical Environmental Justice?
Human societies have always been deeply interconnected with our ecosystems, but today those relationships are witnessing greater frictions, tensions, and harms than ever before. These dynamics mirror those experienced by marginalized communities across the planet, but they also provide a foundation for transformative thinking and action to address these challenges. In this updated edition of his innovative contribution, David Naguib Pellow introduces a new framework for critically analyzing Environmental Justice scholarship and activism. In doing so he extends the field's focus to topics not usually associated with environmental justice, including policing, incarceration, the Israel/Palestine conflict, and the Black Lives Matter movement. In doing so he reveals that ecological violence is first and foremost a form of social violence, driven by and legitimated by social structures and discourses. He enriches this radical approach to Environmental Justice by drawing on Indigenous Studies, the Black Radical Tradition, Disability Studies, Queer and Transgender Studies, and Multi-Species Justice, among others. Those already familiar with the discipline will find themselves invited to think about the subject in entirely new ways. This book is a vital resource for students, scholars, and policy makers interested in innovative approaches to one of the greatest challenges facing humanity and the planet.

Hard Broke
Based on first-hand experience encompassing multiple combat deployments in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Horn of Africa, this book addresses the threat of asymmetric warfare and the future of combat.The American way of war is enabled by the concept of massing all available firepower--when done correctly it makes US forces hard to beat. However improvised explosive devices have increasingly enabled a new kind of asymmetric warfare, one that conventional forces continue to struggle to counter. This book offers a "counter-IED playbook," one based upon the author's experiences of over 90 months of combat operations, working the problem sets of Fires, Effects, IEDs, Close Target Reconnaissance, Tracking-Tagging-Locating (TTL), and Information Operations. This text offers insights into the ways through some of the most complicated problems that have tested the Department of Defense, and the Army--the problems of how a conventional force is organized, manned, equipped, and trained to deal with the problem of IEDs; and how the Army is doctrinally organized to deal with an emerging revolution of military affairs.
