John D. Fairfield - The Public and Its Possibiliti es, Triumphs and Tragedies in the American City (2 010).jpg

In his compelling reinterpretation of American history, The Public and Its Possibilities, John Fairfield argues that our unrealized civic aspirations provide the essential counterpoint to an excessive focus on private interests. Inspired by the revolutionary generation, nineteenth-century Americans struggled to build an economy and a culture to complement their republican institutions. But over the course of the twentieth century, a corporate economy and consumer culture undercut civic values, conflating consumer and citizen. Fairfield places the city at the center of American experience, describing how a resilient demand for an urban participatory democracy has bumped up against the fog of war, the allure of the marketplace, and persistent prejudices of race, class, and gender. In chronicling and synthesizing centuries of U.S. historyoincluding the struggles of the antislavery, labor, women's rights movementsoFairfield explores the ebb and flow of civic participation, activism, and democracy. He revisits what the public has done for civic activism, and the possibility of taking a greater role. In this age where there has been a move towards greater participation in America's public life from its citizens, Fairfield's bookowritten in an accessible, jargon-free style and addressed to general readersois especially topical.

Yvonne Tasker - The Action and Adventure Cinema (2 004).jpg

Action has established itself as one of the leading commercial genres of the New Hollywood cinema, generating extensive debate in the process. This exciting collection addresses action and adventure from the silent to the contemporary period, exploring diverse questions of aesthetics, industry and ideology. Contributors consider how action might best be defined, how it has developed historically, and how it works formally. The critical reception and standing of action and adventure cinema is considered in relation to questions of national culture, violence and the "art" of cinema.
Themes explored include genre and definitions; early action, sensation and melodrama; spectacle and narrative; stars and bodies; class; gender; race and ethnicity. Attempting to evaluate the significance of this type of filmmaking for both popular cinema and film studies, the book underlines the central place of action and adventure within film history.

Pete Simi, Robert Futrell - American Swastika, Ins ide the White Power Movement's Hidden Spaces of Ha te (2010).jpg

01 - USA - Pete Simi, Robert Futrell - American Swastika, Inside t...e the White Power Movements Hidden Spaces of Hate 2010.jpg

American Swastika takes readers through hidden enclaves of hate in America, exploring how White Supremacy movements thrive nationwide, even in a nation that preaches equality and tolerance, and looks toward how we can work to prevent future violence. Drawing on over a decade of research and interviews, the authors explain the difference between various hate groups, then show readers how White Supremacy groups cultivate their membership and ideals through Aryan homes, parties, rituals, music festivals, and online. Powerful case studies, first person accounts, and interview excerpts take readers deep inside these movements.

Review
Even with the historic victory of Barack Obama, the legacy of white supremacy in America is alive and well. This book lays bare the specific groups and particular practices that sustain the extreme forms of the legacy. Don't miss it! --Cornel West, Princeton University

This book is an eye-opener in several ways, revealing the every day lives of an important element in the U.S. that has power beyond their numbers. Pete Simi and Robert Futrell's data describe real people with real concerns that are too-often dismissed as the lunatic fringe. --James F. Short, Jr., Washington State University

If you want to understand the white power movement in the U.S., you must read American Swastika. Pete Simi and Robert Futrell draw on their own observations and interviews as well as the work of previous researchers to produce a compelling, well-researched, and comprehensive examination of white power activism. They skillfully tackle the difficult issue of explaining why this movement has persisted in one form or another for so long. --Betty A. Dobratz, Iowa State University, author of White Power, White Pride

Philip L. Barlow - Mormons and the Bible (1997).jpg

The Mormons have been one of the most studied American religious groups; still, no consensus exists about the essential nature of the movement or its place in American religion. In this study, Barlow analyzes the approaches taken to the Bible by key Mormon leaders, from founder Joseph Smith up to the present day. He shows that Mormon attitudes toward the Bible comprise an extraordinary mix of conservative, liberal, and radical ingredients: an almost fundamentalist adherence to the King James Version of the Bible coexists with belief in the possibility of new revelation and surprising ideas on the limits of human language. Exploring this unique Mormon stance on scripture, Barlow takes important steps toward unraveling the mystery of this quintessential American religious phenomenon.

Gary M. Lavergne - A Sniper in the Tower, The Char les Whitman Murders (1997).jpg

The bodies kept falling, the blood was real, and the man on the deck, a consummate actor for a number of years, was no longer acting. On August 1, 1966, Charles Joseph Whitman ascended the University of Texas Tower and committed what was then the largest simultaneous mass murder in American history. He gunned down forty-five people inside and around the Tower before he was killed by two Austin police officers. During the previous evening he had killed his wife and mother, bringing the total to sixteen people dead and at least thirty-one wounded.

Mark Grimsley, Brooks D. Simpson - The Collapse of the Confederacy (2001).jpg

Practically all Civil War historians agree that after the fall of Atlanta in September 1864 and Lincoln's triumphant reelection in November, the South had no remaining chance to make good its independence. Well aware that Appomattox and Durham Station were close at hand, historians have treated the war's final months in a fashion that smacks strongly of denouement: the great, tragic conflict rolls on to its now-certain end.

Ed Folsom - Whitman East and West (2002).jpg

In Whitman East and West, fifteen prominent scholars track the surprising ways in which Whitman's poetry and prose continue to be meaningful at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Covering a broad range of issues—from ecology to children's literature, gay identity to China's May 4th Movement, nineteenth-century New York politics to the emerging field of normality studies, Mao Zedong to American film—each original essay opens a previously unexplored field of study, and each yields new insights by demonstrating how emerging methodologies and approaches intersect with and illuminate Whitman's ideas about democracy, sexuality, America, and the importance of literature.

The New Americans - Kaari Flagstad Baluja - Gender Roles at Home and Abroad, The Adaptation of Bangl adeshi Immigrants (2002).jpg

01 - USA - The New Americans - Kaari Flagstad Baluja - Gender Role... Abroad, The Adaptation of Bangladeshi Immigrants 2002.jpg

Baluja studies the ways gender roles of Bangladeshi immigrants change after migration. Working with Bangladeshis in Queens, New York, and in corresponding source areas in Bangladesh, she finds that immigrant families maintain some traditional attitudes, but abandon others. For example, immigrants stress traditional images: women’s domestic and childcare responsibilities and husbands’ responsibility for financial support and decision making. Conversely, immigrant women circulate alone in a greater variety of places in New York than do their counterparts in Bangladesh. Traditional behaviors and attitudes are abandoned for practical considerations and a desire to escape cultural constraints. Immigrants’ adaptation process may be self-determined: individuals choose, according to their needs, aspects of both their origin and destination societies.

Graham Davis - Land!, Irish Pioneers in Mexican an d Revolutionary Texas (2002).jpg

The ethnic history of early Texas usually features Hispanics, Anglos, Germans, and Indians. Graham Davis demonstrates the importance of Irish immigrants in the Coastal Bend region of Texas, where they settled in the colonies of San Patricio and Refugio in the years 1829–1834. These colonies embodied the Mexican government policy of populating its sparsely settled northeastern frontier to create a buffer zone against possible U.S. aggression and to encourage economic development. Of forty-one empresario agreements over the period 1823–1835 to recruit principally Mexican and European families to settle on the frontier, few even partially succeeded; the few included two Irish partnerships, James Power and James Hewetson (Refugio) and John Mc-Mullen and James McGloin (San Patricio).

Mexican officials preferred Catholics, so the Irish empresarios sought recruits from Mexico and Ireland with the lure of cheap land. All four empresarios had sojourned in the United States during their youth and then moved on to Mexico as merchants and land speculators, and their colonies proved at least partially successful because they “Mexican-ized, speaking Spanish, establishing contacts in the Mexican government, and marrying into Mexican families” (p. 105). Their Irish recruits were mostly self-financing, small-to-middling farmers from affluent parts of Ireland (though some had lived for a time in the United States). To meet their quotas (cholera and other travails kept many Irish recruits from reaching the colonies), the empresarios accepted colonists from the United States and several European nations. Thus, “Irish” colonies became diverse societies.

The Texas revolution severed the colonists' ties to Mexico; Mexican troops destroyed their homes and drove them into support for Texas independence. Colonists contributed not only soldiers but also valuable intelligence and supplies to the war effort. Close ties with their Mexican neighbors proved vital when one neighbor interceded to save several colonists from the Goliad massacre. The “blood sacrifice” of war bound the colonists to Texas, and survivors of military service received land bounties, while merchants with military contracts prospered, too.

Davis's analysis of pioneer Texas life suggests that Irish immigrants retained some of their cultural baggage (fidelity to Catholicism and Ireland; folkways of music, dance, and storytelling; support for education and charity) while acquiring ranching skills and useful Spanish vocabulary from Tejanos. Their most important acquisition in America was plentiful land—a theme Davis sees as central to the decision to immigrate, to their role in the Texas revolution, and to their lives in postrev-olutionary Texas (conspicuously demonstrated by Thomas O'Connor, who accumulated 500,000 acres and 100,000 head of cattle). Davis also underscores the importance of pioneer women in maintaining civilized living and notes the importance of their memoirs in understanding the history of the period.

Louis Fairchild - The Lonesome Plains, Death and R evival on an American Frontier (2002).jpg

Using interviews, diaries and published sources, Mr. Fairchild, a psychology professor at Texas A & M University, Canyon, Texas, explores a rarely discussed subject - the suffocating and omnipresent loneliness of the Panhandle frontier.

Diet, infant mortality, burial procedures and etiquette, mourning, and the importance of friendship and neighborliness are all covered by these sobering and sometimes heartrending personal accounts. Also discussed is the way men dealt with these problems and benefits, which predictably, was quite different from women.

Instead of romanticizing the pioneers - the facts revealed in their writings make them more human and
allow for an easy connection with the reader. The details of everyday pioneer life are valuable and the passages gleaned from letters and diaries are well chosen.

Thankfully, the second part of the book is a little lighter than the first and covers the camp or brush arbor meetings. Here the reader is relieved to find that there was some fun to be had when families would bring their children, dogs and most of their furniture to these semi-annual events. Getting a year or six months worth of friendship and/ or religion crowded into a few short days is something few societies experience.

It's a readable book on a serious subject without a droning academic tone.

Louis Fairchild is a professor of psychology at West Texas A&M University. A graduate of Baylor University and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, he holds a Ph.D. from the University of Houston.

Maxine Eichner - The Supportive State, Families, G overnment, and America's Political Ideals (2010).jpg

Broad agreement exists among politicians and policymakers that the family is a critical institution of American life. Yet the role that the state should play with respect to family ties among citizens remains deeply contested. This controversy over the state's role undergirds a broad range of public policy debates: Does the state have a responsibility to help resolve conflicts between work and family? Should same-sex marriage be permitted? Should parents who receive welfare benefits be required to work? Yet while these individual policy issues are endlessly debated, the underlying theoretical question of the stance that the state should take with families remains largely unexplored.

Jean-Paul Brodeur - The Policing Web (2010).jpg

Nearly all research devoted to policing focuses on public uniformed police and their legal use of force. An overwhelming amount of this work draws on evidence from Anglo-American police forces. These twin emphases have led to a limited view. Agencies such as criminal investigation units, intelligence services, private security companies, and military policing organizations have almost entirely escaped scholarly attention.
