The Real History of the End of the World
Author: Sharan Newman
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101186607
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
From the author of The Real History Behind the Templars--the origins and stories behind end-of-the-world predictions throughout history, from Revelations to 2012. In entertaining and sharp prose, historian Sharan Newman explores theories of world destruction from ancient times up to the present day- theories which reveal as much about human nature as they do about the predominant historical, scientific, and religious beliefs of the time. Readers will find answers to the following end-of-times questions: ?Did the Mayans really say the world will end in December 2012? ?How have the signs in the New Testament Book of Revelations been interpreted over the years? ?How did ancient Egyptians, Norse, and Chinese think the world would end? ?When did Nostradamus predict that the last days would come? ?Does the I Ching reference 2012? ?Why didn't the world end in Y2K? ?Are meteors, global warming, super-volcanoes, and the threat of nuclear war signs that the end is near?

How the Tea Party Captured the GOP
Author: Rachel M. Blum
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022668766X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
This incisive and timely study of American party politics reveals how a fringe group within the Republican party came to wield outsized power. The rise of the Tea Party redefined both the Republican Party and how we think about intraparty conflict. What initially appeared to be an anti-Obama protest movement of fiscal conservatives matured into a faction that sought to increase its influence in the Republican Party by any means necessary. Tea Partiers captured the party’s organizational machinery and used it to replace established politicians with Tea Party–style Republicans, eventually laying the groundwork for the nomination and election of a candidate like Donald Trump. In How the Tea Party Captured the GOP, Rachel Marie Blum offers a novel theory of political party factions, framing them as miniature parties within parties. Using this framework, she demonstrates how fringe groups can leverage factions to increase their political influence in the American two-party system. In this richly researched book, Blum uncovers how the electoral losses of 2008 sparked disgruntled Republicans to form the Tea Party faction, and the strategies the Tea Party used to wage a systematic takeover of the Republican Party. This book not only illuminates how the Tea Party achieved its influence, but also provides a blueprint for identifying other factional insurgencies.
