August 2019 saw numerous commemorations of the year 1619, when what was said to be the first arrival of enslaved Africans occurred in North America. Yet in the 1520s, the Spanish, from their imperial perch in Santo Domingo, had already brought enslaved Africans to what was to become South Carolina. The enslaved people here quickly defected to local Indigenous populations, and compelled their captors to flee. Deploying such illuminating research, The Dawning of the Apocalypse is a riveting revision of the "creation myth" of settler colonialism and how the US was formed.

Gerald Horne explains the long 16th century.
Revisado: 02-15-24
The book connects both hemispheres in the long 16th century, the most crucial one in the development of our modern capitalist world system. Gerald Horne is the greatest living American historian. The reader could not be better: the tone of his voice, the clarity of phrasing, the pace. He isn’t just reading the material, he speaks as if he’s teaching it to us.

To trace the evolution of the American state, Aaron Good takes a deep-politics approach. The term “deep state” was badly misappropriated during the Trump era. In the simplest sense, it here refers to all those institutions that collectively exercise undemocratic power over state and society. To trace how we arrived at this point, American Exception explores various deep state institutions and history-making interventions.

brilliant, groundbreaking
Revisado: 06-22-23
Cuts like a knife through the rose-colored lie that is hegemonic political science in the bougeois democratic western acadamies, in the most elegant and clearly written way.
