Author: Elisabeth Braw

Narrator: Brigid Lohrey

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 13 hours 51 minutes

Release date: April 9, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

A bold new account of the state of globalization today—and what its collapse might mean for the world economy After the Cold War, globalization accelerated at breakneck speed. Manufacturing, transport, and consumption defied national borders, companies made more money, and consumers had access to an ever-increasing range of goods. But in recent years, a profound shift has begun to take place. Business executives and politicians alike are realizing that globalization is no longer working. Supply chains are imperiled, Russia has been expelled from the global economy after its invasion of Ukraine, and China is using these fissures to leverage a strategic advantage. Given these pressures, what will the future of our world economy look like? In this groundbreaking account, Elisabeth Braw explores the collapse of globalization and the profound challenges it will bring to the West. Drawing on interviews with prominent executives and policymakers from around the world, Braw poses the difficult questions all businesses and economies will face—and traces the intricate story of globalization from the exuberant 90s to the embattled present.

Title: Cyborg: The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series)

Author: Danya Glabau, Laura Forlano

Narrator: Teri Schnaubelt

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 9 minutes

Release date: April 9, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

This introduction to cyborg theory provides a critical vantage point for analyzing the claims around emerging technologies like automation, robots, and AI. Cyborg analyzes and reframes popular and scholarly conversations about cyborgs from the perspective of feminist cyborg theory. Drawing on their combined decades of training, teaching, and research in the social sciences, design, and engineering education, Laura Forlano and Danya Glabau introduce an approach called critical cyborg literacy. Critical cyborg literacy foregrounds power dynamics and pays attention to the ways that social and cultural factors such as gender, race, and disability shape how technology is imagined, developed, used, and resisted. Forlano and Glabau offer critical cyborg literacy as a way of thinking through questions about the relationship between humanity and technology. Cyborg examines whether modern technologies make us all cyborgs—if we consider, for instance, the fact that we use daily technologies at work, have technologies embedded into our bodies in health care applications, or use technology to critically explore possibilities as artists, designers, activists, and creators. Lastly, Cyborg offers perspectives from critical race, feminist, and disability thinkers to help chart a path forward for cyborg theory in the twenty-first century.

Title: The Search for Reagan: The Appealing Intellectual Conservatism of Ronald Reagan

Author: Craig Shirley

Narrator: Bob Johnson

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 9 hours 22 minutes

Release date: April 9, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

Never before has anyone explored the mind, soul, and heart of Ronald Reagan. The Search for Reagan explores the challenges and controversies in Reagan's life and how he successfully dealt with each, depicting a man who was never as conservative as some conservatives wanted him to be, but rather as conservative as he was comfortable being—a man who wanted to win on his own terms and integrity. Ronald Reagan was a singularly unique man and conservative who championed a wildly successful revolution—leading to more freedom and less government for the American people and to the fall of communism, while boosting American morale. He was the first president in many years who believed optimism from the Oval Office had a direct bearing on the affairs of the nation. As a consequence, he left office more popular than when he entered, with a whopping 73 percent approval. He understood that American conservatism was based upon the individual and not the group. In his presidency, he solved the mystery of high inflation that had bedeviled his predecessor, high interest rates, and high gas prices. He created over twenty million new jobs, and the number of American millionaires grew from 4,414 to 34,944. He is considered by most historians to be one of our four greatest presidents, along with George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin Roosevelt.

Title: Apocalypse Television: How The Day After Helped End the Cold War

Author: David Craig

Narrator: Kim Niemi

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 54 minutes

Release date: April 9, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

On November 20, 1983, a three-hour made-for-TV movie, The Day After, premiered on ABC. Set in the heartland of Lawrence, Kansas, the film depicted the events before, during, and after a Soviet nuclear attack with vivid scenes of the post-apocalyptic hellscape that would follow. The film was viewed by over 100 million Americans and remains the highest rated TV movie in history. The path to primetime for The Day After proved nearly as treacherous as the film's narrative. Battles ensued behind the scenes at the network, between the network and the filmmakers. But these skirmishes pale in comparison to the culture wars triggered by the film in the press, alongside a growing Nuclear Freeze movement, and from a united, pro-nuclear Right. Once efforts to alter the script failed, the White House conducted a full-throttled propaganda campaign to hijack the film's message. Apocalypse Television features a dramatic insider's account of the making of and backlash against The Day After. No other book has told this story in similar fashion, venturing behind-the-scenes of the programming and news divisions at ABC, the backlash from the conservative movement and Religious Right, the challenges encountered by the film's production team, and the experiences of the citizens of Lawrence, Kansas, where the film was set and shot.

Title: Four Chancellors and a Funeral: How to Lose a Country in Ten Days

Author: Russell Jones

Narrator: Chris Devon

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 11 hours 43 minutes

Release date: April 4, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

The sequel nobody wants. After a decade of the Tories, could it get any worse? Spoiler – it does. Towards the end of 2021, Britain had been frogmarched into an escalating series of surreal calamities. Brexit was a disaster, the NHS was in crisis, the government was bathed head-to-toe in impropriety, senior Tories were still acting as though the public purse was their personal feed-trough, and the air crackled with anger about PartyGate. All of which led to an inglorious start to 2022: the year the UK saw two monarchs, three prime ministers and four chancellors. From Boris Johnson, who crashed our international reputation and handed billions to his mates so they could ineptly fight a pandemic while he stayed at home, shagging and acting as a super-spreader; to Liz Truss, a drive-by prime minister who managed to kill off the queen and crash the economy in a single week. And now we're led by Rishi Sunak, who doesn't know how to use a credit card, drives a pretend car, and grinningly promises even more poverty. Four Chancellors and a Funeral delivers more of Russell Jones's signature scathing wit, combining a detailed historical record of 2021 and 2022, with acerbic commentary, all of it leavened by jokes at the seemingly endless maelstrom of failures, nincompoops and hypocrisies.

'On Guerrilla Warfare' by Mao Tse Tung is a foundational text that elaborates on the strategies and philosophies behind guerrilla warfare, authored by the revolutionary leader during the tumultuous period of the Chinese Civil War and the Japanese invasion of China in the 20th century.

Through this work, Mao emphasizes the importance of political ideology, the support of the local population, and the use of the terrain to the guerrilla fighter's advantage. His insights into the interplay between politics and military strategy have made this work a staple reference in the study of revolutionary warfare and insurgency movements globally, influencing numerous conflicts and shaping the tactics of various liberation movements.

Title: The Radical Imagination of Black Women: Ambition, Politics, and Power

Author: Pearl K. Ford Dowe

Narrator: L. Malaika Cooper

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 13 minutes

Release date: April 2, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

Including interviews with Black women holding political office at the national, state, and local levels, as well as focus group data, The Radical Imagination of Black Women challenges political science's current approach to political ambition by exploring how Black women decide to seek political office. Pearl K. Ford Dowe argues that ambition for Black women cannot be measured only by political candidacies and ascents of the political chain of power. Black women are uniquely positioned within their communities to influence politics and public policy, which stems from unique variables of socialization, gender and racial identity, and marginalization that shape the political attitudes of Black women. Thus, Dowe asserts that Black women's political ambition often manifests outside formal politics, in activism and community building, a process that is linked to a wider radical vision for a full democracy. This is ambition that occurs in a specific context of marginalization, and both motivation and the conditions surrounding such motivation are critical to understanding the full range of Black women's political work. By focusing on Black women's experiences in elite politics, The Radical Imagination of Black Women is a much-needed intervention in the literature on electoral ambition, women in politics, and candidates and elections.

Author: The Invisible Committee

Narrator: Jason Mccoy

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 2 hours 58 minutes

Release date: March 28, 2024

Genres: Current Affairs, Law, & Politics

Publisher's Summary:

'The Coming Insurrection' is a provocative manifesto penned by the enigmatic collective known as The Invisible Committee, which surfaced in France in 2007. This radical leftist treatise diagnoses contemporary society as deeply afflicted by the malaises of capitalism, alienation, and pervasive surveillance, arguing that the fabric of modern life is leading inexorably towards societal collapse. Through a compelling blend of critical theory and urgent polemic, the manifesto calls for a comprehensive insurrection against the existing order. It champions the formation of autonomous communes, the subversion of state mechanisms, and the rejection of traditional political and social structures as pathways to liberation. The text, notorious for its incendiary tone and its advocacy for direct action, has ignited significant debate, admiration, and criticism, marking it as a seminal work in radical political thought.
