“…The war on terror—and, in a larger sense, the administration's decision to withdraw from the ABM Treaty and the Kyoto accords—has many wondering whether the constitutional framework for making foreign affairs decisions has been discarded by the present administration. John Yoo, formerly a lawyer in the Department of Justice, here makes the case for a completely new approach to understanding what the Constitution says about foreign affairs, particularly the powers of war and peace. …”

“…He then shows how that theology informed Niebuhr's worldview, leading him to be at the same time a strong opponent of fascism and communism and a leading advocate for humility and caution in foreign policy. Turning to the present, Diggins highlights what he argues is a misuse of Niebuhr's legacy on both the right and the left: while neoconservatives distort Niebuhr's arguments to support their call for an endless war on terror in the name of stopping evil, many liberal interventionists conveniently ignore Niebuhr's fundamental doubts about power. …”

“…History Beyond the Textbook" presents six powerful teaching strategies, each with many sample lessons suitable for grades 5-12, that tap into students' natural curiosity and investigative instincts.Your students will become detectives of the past as they: ghost-hunt in their neighborhoods, researching mysterious buildings, monuments, and other 'haunted' spaces; solve historical crime scenes, or 'cold cases'; analyze primary and secondary sources using fingerprinting techniques; reconstruct 'accidents' that occurred at important intersections in history; prepare arguments as defenders or prosecutors in famous court cases; and, undertake paranormal investigations to communicate with figures from the past…”

“…Refusant cette interprétation, le présent ouvrage interroge le sens et l'actualité de ces mobilisations : l'émancipation des différentes formes de servitude ; la défense des communaux et des usages collectifs dont la lecture s'enrichit des réflexions contemporaines sur les communs et les nouvelles enclosures ; l'autonomie des communautés rurales conçue non pas comme une forme d'archaïsme mais comme un aspect de la modernité. …”

“…The Invention of Papal History corrects this distorting emphasis and shows how history-writing became part of a comprehensive formation of the image and self-perception of the papacy. By presenting and fully contextualizing the path-breaking works of the Augustinian historian Onofrio Panvinio (153068), this book shows what type of historical research was possible in the late Renaissance and the Catholic Reformation. …”

“…All had self-interested reasons to hold their secrets close until one humble valet named Eustace Dauger was arrested and jailed for decades, simply because he knew too much and opened his mouth at the wrong time.
