The Hollow Colossus By Charles Andrews
2015 | 209 Pages | ISBN: 0967990556 | PDF | 52 MB
PrefaceWorking people enjoyed relative prosperity in the decades after World War Two, despite significant exceptions. Many a senior remembers good times then, but they have turned into insecurity and degraded employment today. This essay studies why.The investigation looks into changes in the nature of work, the inevitability of economic slumps, and the subjugation of technological advance to the dictate of profit. The facts are readily observed, and the data are routine tallies. The challenge is to comprehend the historical path of capitalist accumulation and the barrier it hit. We find that two frequent themes of economic commentary, financialization and globalization, are superficial jumbles of description; the phenomena are effects more than causes. Our explanatory model uses a few propositions from the labor theory of value, but since they do not upset honest common sense, an exposition of the theory is unnecessary here.Study foretells a different future, but only action makes it real. The principles of a new order call out: this we must do, we can do it, and it will be glorious.

Hugh E. Evans, "The Hidden Campaign: FDR's Health and the 1944 Election"
English | ISBN: 0765608553 | 2002 | 202 pages | EPUB | 1338 KB
In early 1944, with the outcome of World War II by no means certain, many in the United States felt that FDR, as wartime Commander-in-Chief, was an indispensable part of prosecuting the war to a victorious conclusion. Yet although only 62, Roosevelt was mortally ill with congestive heart disease - a fact that was carefully shielded from the American public prior to the election of 1944. In a media environment where we get more details about politicians' health than we sometimes prefer, it is hard to imagine how a paper as authoriative as The New York Times could describe FDR's death as "sudden and unexpected" on its front page. Dr. Hugh Evans looks at the issue of Roosevelt's health not only from a medical ethics perspective, but also with a keen eye for the political and media considerations that led to the decision to run and not disclose the extent of Roosevelt's illness.

The Governance Cycle in Parliamentary Democracies: A Computational Social Science Approach
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009315471 | 228 Pages | PDF | 2 MB
Parliamentary democracy involves a never-ending cycle of elections, government formations, and the need for governments to survive in potentially hostile environments. These conditions require members of any government to make decisions on a large number of issues, some of which sharply divide them. Officials resolve these divisions by 'logrolling'- conceding on issues they care less about, in exchange for reciprocal concessions on issues to which they attach more importance. Though realistically modeling this 'governance cycle' is beyond the scope of traditional formal analysis, this book attacks the problem computationally in two ways. Firstly, it models the behavior of "functionally rational" senior politicians who use informal decision heuristics to navigate their complex high stakes setting. Secondly, by applying computational methods to traditional game theory, it uses artificial intelligence to model how hyper-rational politicians might find strategies that are close to optimal.

Matthew Smith, "The First Resort: The History of Social Psychiatry in the United States"
English | ISBN: 0231203934 | 2023 | 424 pages | PDF | 6 MB
Social psychiatry was a mid-twentieth-century approach to mental health that stressed the prevention of mental illness rather than its treatment. Its proponents developed environmental explanations of mental health, arguing that socioeconomic problems such as poverty, inequality, and social isolation were the underlying causes of mental illness. The influence of social psychiatry contributed to the closure of psychiatric hospitals and the emergence of community mental health care during the 1960s. By the 1980s, however, social psychiatry was in decline, having lost ground to biological psychiatry and its emphasis on genetics, neurology, and psychopharmacology.
