The Occupy Wall Street movement named the core issue of our time: the overwhelming power of Wall Street and large corporations—something the political establishment and most media have long ignored. But the movement goes far beyond this critique. In this volume, the editors of YES! magazine bring together voices from inside and outside the protests to convey the issues, possibilities, and personalities associated with the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Story0
The historical significance of Barack Obama's triumph in the presidential election of 2008 scarcely requires comment. Yet it contains an irony: He won a victory as an African American only by denying that he was the candidate of African Americans. Obama's very success, writes Fredrick Harris, exacted a heavy cost on black politics.
In The Price of the Ticket, Harris puts Obama's career in the context of decades of black activism, showing how his election undermined the very movement that made it possible.

Conquest, Famine, War, Death: the four horsemen are coming, in the form of the national debt, widespread dependence on government, turmoil in the Middle East, and the expansion of the bureaucratic state. In Obama’s Four Horsemen, syndicated columnist David Harsanyi takes a provocative look at how the Obama Administration allowed four big problems to mushroom into looming disasters we can no longer avoid or postpone. In his famous conversational, fact-driven, and humorous tone, Harsanyi argues that President Obama’s handling of both domestic and foreign crises has set the stage for a disaster of Biblical proportions.

Story0
The size and stability of the American middle class were once the envy of the world. But changes unleashed in the 1960s pitted Americans against one another politically in new and destructive ways. These battles continued to rage from that day to now, while everyone has fallen behind economically except the wealthy. Right-wing culture warriors blamed the decline on the moral shortcomings of "other" Americans - black people, feminists, gays, immigrants, union members - to court a fearful white working- and middle-class base with ever more bitter "us vs. them" politics.

With Share This! both regular folks of a progressive bent and committed activists can learn how to go beyond swapping movie reviews and vacation photos (not that there's anything wrong with that). At the moment, the same kinds of people who dominate the dialog off-line are dominating it online, and things will never change if that doesn't change. Progressives need to get on social networks and share their stories, join conversations, connect with others - and not just others exactly like themselves.

Americans have always put the past to political ends. The Union laid claim to the Revolution - so did the Confederacy. Civil rights leaders said they were the true sons of liberty - so did Southern segregationists. This book tells the story of the centuries-long struggle over the meaning of the nation's founding, including the battle waged by the Tea Party, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, and evangelical Christians to "take back America".

In We Can All Do Better, for the first time since the financial meltdown and since the worst of the intensifying political gridlock, Bill Bradley offers his own concise, powerful, and highly personal review of the state of the nation. He argues that government is not the problem. He criticizes the role of money and politics, explains how continuing on our existing foreign policy, electoral, and economic paths will mean a diminished future, and lays out exactly what needs to be done to reverse course.

Can a country be a democracy if its government only responds to the preferences of the rich? In an ideal democracy, all citizens should have equal influence on government policy - but as this book demonstrates, America's policymakers respond almost exclusively to the preferences of the economically advantaged.

8 luglio 2017, 15.000 persone a Pesaro: militanti del movimento NO-VAX, ma anche famiglie con bambini, medici e semplici cittadini, tutti lì a manifestare contro il decreto in discussione in Parlamento. Mi aspetto che una partecipazione così massiccia finisca sulle prime pagine di tutti i quotidiani e in apertura di tutti i tg. Invece nulla. Silenzio. Perché tutta questa reticenza? Decido di indagare. La mia inchiesta parte da qui. Ma questa storia parte dal 2014, quando l'Italia è diventata la nazione capofila a livello mondiale delle strategie vaccinali.

Di fronte a problemi che nessun governo nazionale è in grado di risolvere, elettori e politici, sfiduciati verso la globalizzazione, inseguono le sirene del populismo. Spaventati dai fantasmi di una sovranità che sembra svanire, stiamo cosi distruggendo proprio quegli strumenti che ci consentirebbero di ricostruirla in un mondo che non è più quello dominato dagli Stati nazionali. Frustrati per l'impressione di non riuscire a far sentire la nostra voce e di non avere più il controllo sulle nostre vite, ci rassegniamo a uno stato di natura del tutti contro tutti.

È la prima volta che i cambiamenti della società sfuggono completamente al controllo della politica. L'innovazione si sviluppa lontano dai Parlamenti, i nuovi protagonisti sono troppo potenti e globali per essere affrontati da piccoli Stati. Uber liberalizza il trasporto pubblico, Spotify regala musica invece di venderla, AirBnB vanifica i tentativi degli albergatori di fare cartello, Facebook e Google iniziano a comportarsi come Stati del web, gli utenti sono i loro cittadini. Oggi gli utili si fanno conquistando miliardi di consumatori a cui migliorare la vita.

In Italia, quasi tutti i giorni muore un partito. In Italia, quasi tutti i giorni nasce un nuovo movimento. È difficile votare due volte di fila lo stesso simbolo, lo stesso schieramento, lo stesso leader. Essere di sinistra, in Italia, è un inferno. Cosa direbbe Freud, vedendo che oggi sono i padri, più o meno nobili, a ribellarsi a figli ingrati e rottamatori? E cosa direbbe Nietzsche di fronte all'eterno ritorno di una storia sempre diversa e sempre uguale a se stessa?

"Il nostro Paese, guidato dal primo governo nazionalpopulista dell'Europa occidentale, egemonizzato culturalmente e politicamente dalla nuova destra, rischia un declino inarrestabile. Rischia di rimanere isolato nell'Unione Europea e diviso al suo interno, impaurito, incattivito e avvitato su se stesso. Impediremo il declino se sapremo cambiare. Riconoscendo senza reticenze gli errori e affrontando le ragioni delle sconfitte. Il primo passo sarà tornare a incontrarci, in tanti, per trovare insieme le soluzioni e costruire un'idea di società giusta."

Che cos'è l'Europa? La definizione più azzeccata ce l'ha data Jacques Delors: l'Europa è un "oggetto politico non identificato". Un Ufo. Perché l'Europa non è né uno stato né una vera e propria organizzazione internazionale. Partendo dai suoi padri fondatori e madri fondatrici, Virginia Volpi traccia una breve, felice storia della nascita della Ue. Ci spiega quali sono le sue istituzioni più importanti e come funzionano, i cambiamenti che ha portato a livello politico ed economico negli stati aderenti. Ci racconta i valori su cui si fonda ma anche i problemi.

I modi in cui è avvenuta l'unificazione italiana hanno fatto sì che il nuovo Stato abbia dovuto affrontare in rapida successione sfide che altrove sono state diluite nell'arco di secoli. Ciò ha lasciato segni evidenti sul successivo sviluppo politico e sulle architetture istituzionali. L'audiolibro ne dà conto in modo aggiornato, dall'assetto bipolare competitivo degli anni novanta alla crisi finanziaria del 2008 e al suo impatto sulle istituzioni, fino alle recenti riforme del governo Renzi.
