State & National Parties & American Democracy

By: Joel Paddock

During the past fifty years American democracy has been transformed by the collapse of non-ideological and decentralized traditional party organizations and also by the emergence of more ideologically distinct and integrated service vendor parties and their allied groups. In this book, Joel Paddock uses several original data sets to provide new insights into the ways parties adapt to politics in the telecommunications age, growing interparty ideological differences, the changing relationship between parties and interest groups, and party nationalization. Well-suited for either graduate or undergraduate courses on political parties or linkage institutions, this book provides a fresh perspective on party transformation and the American democratic process.

The Bentley Barrister

By: Joel Erik Thompson

Collum Arbuthnot Taylor was a hell of a quarterback even as a kid, but he was always simply CAT to the public, since sportswriters avoid long names, and initials are easier to remember and spell. He grew up in an orphanage and always pushed himself to be the best, especially playing football. A full-scholarship quarterback at Notre Dame, he was a multiyear All-American. After graduating, he earned both a Heisman Trophy as the nation's best college football player and a Rhodes scholarship because he'd worked just as hard in his classes as in the stadiums. He also became the NFL's first draft pick. But rather than signing to play, he instead went to study law at Oxford on his Rhodes scholarship for a year before signing a pro contract for next season. That signing bonus also bought his first ever car. A Bentley, of course, and directly from the factory in Crewe where they made them, naturally! "Nothing but the best for the best," according to the media! As a pro quarterback, he became a Super Bowl MVP a couple of times. Off seasons, he finished law school and was even admitted to practice law. His pro football career ended suddenly and tragically in a deadly car crash that killed his beloved baby girl and his unborn son. It also devastatingly injured his beloved wife who was called Kitten by everyone but CAT. She remains in a traumatic injury care facility known as Sanctuary of the Morning Sun. CAT visits her there every Sunday without fail. But it is unlikely she will ever be able to leave the facility and equally unlikely that CAT would fail to visit her every Sunday. CAT is now focused on courtroom lawyering and caring for his massively injured and now long institutionalized wife, Kitten. Collum, as we catch up to him, is in the midst of an ugly high-profile murder trial, with ugly racial overtones, and before a belligerent judge he's fought with since childhood. We're privy to CAT's planning and strategy with his staff and in jail visits with his defendant/client. During a critical stage of this trial, CAT answers a late-night phone call. It's from his best friend and former teammate Racer Roosevelt who has just been arrested a thousand miles away and charged with raping the local TV news anchor. Can CAT be in two places at once? Never know what you can accomplish until you give it your best shot!

Workers on the Nile

Nationalism, Communism, Islam, and the Egyptian Working Class, 1882-1954

By: Joel Beinin,Zachary Lockman

In this reissue of a book that was hailed as groundbreaking almost as soon as it was published, the authors examine the role of trade unionism and the working class in the development of Egyptian nationalism during the first half of the twentieth century. Beinin and Lockman examine "the dialectic of class and nation [and] the formation of a new class of wage workers as Egypt experienced a particular kind of capitalist development ... and these workers' adoption of various forms of consciousness, organization, and collective action in a political and economic context structured by the realities of foreign domination and the struggle for national independence." "This work breaks new ground in contemporary Western scholarship on the Middle East and challenges Orientalist assumptions that classes do not exist, or play only an insignificant role. The authors' careful and comprehensive account of the workers and their unions is obviously understanding of, and sympathetic to, the working class. Yet it is free of the rather mechanistic and reductionist analyses of earlier writings on the subject." -- Nazih Ayubi, MESA Bulletin.

Constituting the Minangkabau

Constituting the Minangkabau

By: Joel Kahn

This account of culture and society in the villages of West Sumatra, Indonesia, during the period of Dutch colonialism is based on materials collected from the colonial archives, local Indonesian newspapers and recent fieldwork in Malaysia and Indonesia. The author argues that the impact of colonial land-grabbing and political control led to the formation of a peasant economy in the period. At the same time, the author tackles issues in the recent anthropological debates about ethnography and culture to argue that this period also witnessed the construction of what we now call 'Minangkabau Culture' - a process that involved western ethnographers, colonial officials and Minangkabau intellectuals in an often conflicted process of modern cultural transformation.

The Christian Doctrine Paradox

Spotlighting Biblical Truths and Exposing False Doctrines in Modern Christianity

By: Philip Joel Walls

The atheist, the agnostic and the devout religious alike; each and every one of us must at some point come to address these universal questions – Why are we here? How did we get here? What is the meaning of life? Why are there so many divisions in our Christian churches? Why are so many people deceived by a multitude of worldly religions? How do we witness a true Christian faith to the religions and philosophies of the world? So many questions at so great a cost for the wrong answers... This book, The Christian Doctrine Paradox, is the perfect illustration of where things went wrong, how we can make it right again, and what can ultimately be defined as Predestination – the reason for life on this planet – and much, much more.

Underground Philadelphia

From Caves and Canals to Tunnels and Transit

By: Harry Kyriakodis,Joel Spivak

Explore Philadelphia's relationship with the underground, as old as the city itself, dating back to when Quaker settlers resided in caves alongside the Delaware River more than three hundred years ago. Explore the city under the The City of Brotherly Love, which became a national and world leader in the delivery of water, gas, steam, and electricity during the industrial age. The construction of multiple subway lines within Center City took place during the early twentieth century. An intricate subsurface pedestrian concourse was also developed throughout the downtown area for the city's inhabitants. From Thirtieth Street Station and Reading Terminal to the Commuter Rail Tunnel and transit lines that were never built, Philadelphia's infrastructure history is buried under the earth as much as above. Join authors Harry Kyriakodis and Joel Spivak as they reveal the curious aspects of the Quaker City's underground experience.

The Two Witnesses are God the Father and The Holy Spirit - Revelation 11

Biblical Treasures Buried Under Extra-Biblical Sources, Guesswork and Neglect For 2,000 Years Finally Brought to Light

By: Joel Hernandez

In this first volume of my book I have proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that The Two Witnesses in Revelation 11 are God The Father and The Holy Spirit. Which is a fact that none of the Ancient, or, Modern day commentators have ever known in 2,000 years! That they are primarily God the Son's Two Witnesses, who is the Glorious omnipotent Angel in Revelation chapter 10 who is prophesying to John about his immediate future in Revelation chapter 11, where he has assumed his second nature as Jesus (Rev. 11:8). Nor have they ever known that Jesus is the Main and Hidden Actor behind the scenes, and underlying dimension of chapter 11, in spite of the fact that his Two Witnesses who are actually 'in him' in chapter 11, as I shall also demonstrate, seem to be the main Actors on the surface as I shall also demonstrate. Or ever known that Jesus is alive in chapter 11. Now that the Angel has become Jesus, they must be referred to as Christ' Two Witnesses. None of the commentators have ever taken these facts into account, because they never suspected the Two Witnesses could be God, who they should have considered in the first place! And considered 2 Cor. 5:19 which says that, "God was 'in Christ' reconciling the world unto himself." That which immediately proves the Two Witnesses are the Father and Holy Spirit, is the fact that Christ, who is also God, is called the very same things in the Bible they are, a Witness, an Olive Tree, a Lampstand and a Prophet, making a total of Three "Witnesses" (Rev. 1:5; Rev. 11:3). Three "Olive Trees" (Rev. 11:4; Judg. 9:8-9). Three "Lampstands" (Rev. 11:4; Zech. 4:1). And Three "Prophets" (Rev. 11:10; John 4:19). The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, have always been Witnesses of each other throughout all Eternity. And now that God the Son, the omnipotent Angel has come down from the third heaven to earth in Rev. 10:1-2, and assumed the form of Jesus, the Father and Holy Spirit, have now become the Two Witnesses of the Lamb that was slain (Rev. 11:7-8; Rev. 5:6) in Time.
