Title: Grounds of Political Legitimacy

Author: Fabienne Peter

Narrator: Eva Wilhelm

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:00:12

Language: English

Release date: 01-30-24

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Politics, History, Political Advocacy

Summary:

Political decisions have the potential to greatly impact our lives. Think of decisions in relation to abortion or climate change, for example. This makes political legitimacy an important normative concern. But what makes political decisions legitimate? Are they legitimate in virtue of having support from the citizens? Democratic conceptions of political legitimacy answer in the affirmative. Such conceptions rightly highlight that legitimate political decision-making must be sensitive to disagreements among the citizens.

Peter argues that the legitimacy of political decisions doesn't just depend on respect for the citizens' will; and defends a novel hybrid conception of political legitimacy, called the Epistemic Accountability conception. According to this conception, political legitimacy also depends on how political decision-making responds to evidence for what there is most reason to do. The Grounds of Political Legitimacy starts with an overview of the main ways in which philosophers have thought about political legitimacy, and identifies the epistemic accountability conception as an overlooked alternative. Considering the norms that should govern political debate, it examines the role of experts in politics, and probes the responsibilities of democratically elected political leaders and as well as of citizens.

Length: 08:53:36

Language: English

Release date: 01-30-24

Summary:

A pathbreaking look at Native women of the early South who defined power and defied authority.

Historian Alejandra Dubcovsky tells a story of war, slavery, loss, remembrance, and the women whose resilience and resistance transformed the colonial South. In exploring their lives she rewrites early American history, challenging the established male-centered narrative.

Dubcovsky reconstructs the lives of Native women-Timucua, Apalachee, Chacato, and Guale-to show how they made claims to protect their livelihoods, bodies, and families. Through the stories of the Native cacica who demanded her authority be recognized; the elite Spanish woman who turned her dowry and household into a source of independent power; the Floridiana who slapped a leading Native man in the town square; and the Black woman who ran a successful business at the heart of a Spanish town, Dubcovsky reveals the formidable women who claimed and used their power, shaping the history of the early South.

Title: To Catch a Dictator: The Pursuit and Trial of Hissène Habré

Author: Reed Brody

Narrator: Reed Brody

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:44:03

Language: English

Release date: 01-30-24

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: History, Non-Fiction, Politics, Africa, Law, Political Advocacy

Summary:

What does it take to make a dictator answer for his crimes? Hissene Habre, the former despot of Chad, terrorized, tortured, and killed on a horrific scale over eight years in power-while enjoying full American and Western support. After Habre's overthrow, his victims and their supporters were determined to see him held responsible for his atrocities. Their quest for justice would be long, tense, and unnerving, but they would not back down.

To Catch a Dictator is an insider's account of the hunt for Habre and his momentous trial. The human rights lawyer Reed Brody recounts how he and an international team of investigators, legal experts, and victims worked across three continents to unearth evidence and witnesses, petition courts and skeptical governments, and rally public opinion. They faced many obstacles and constant threats. Habre fought back bitterly, drawing on secret bank accounts and extensive political connections to preserve his life of luxurious exile. Yet Brody and his allies ultimately triumphed: Habre became the first former head of state to be convicted of crimes against humanity in the courts of another country. This fast-paced, suspenseful book shows that there is nothing inevitable about the impunity that too often protects the powerful and that even the worst tyrants can be brought to justice.

Title: Love Jesus, Leave Church (ianity)

Author: Mark Clifton

Narrator: Jared Clifton, Mike Zuehlke

Format: Unabridged

Length: 08:13:10

Language: English

Release date: 01-23-24

Publisher: Authors Republic

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Biblical Studies

Summary:

If you love Jesus but are unhappy, disappointed, frustrated, disillusioned, or just plain burned-out with church or religion, I have good news for you. There is a problem with church, but its neither your fault nor Gods fault and youre not required to try harder to fix it. Furthermore, youre not alone. More and more evangelical Christians sense that church and religion are somehow at odds with relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

The answer to disillusionment is to leave organized religion without losing our faith. And no, thats not a trick statement: leaving doesnt somehow mean staying.

Many Christians who become disillusioned with church naturally assume that the fault must lie with them. If in fact God commands us to go to church, then dropping out amounts to rejecting Gods Word and violating our conscience.

When the disillusionment becomes too great to ignore, Christians face a distressing choice: remain stuck in a bad situation, or drop out of church. Those who choose to remain may look for a different church; stay where they are and struggle to survive; or stay put outwardly but drop out inwardly. Christians who quit church may look for a way to still hold onto Jesus, or throw out the baby with the bathwater and become agnostic or atheist.

God has already given us the way of escape. His answer has always been hiding in plain sight in the New Testament.
