National Socialism

Ernest Belfort Bax (1854-1926) was an English barrister, journalist, philosopher, rights advocate, and historian. In this essay, after dismissing St. Simonism, Fourierism, Owenism, and “Continental Nihilists”, Bax attempts to explain what modern socialism, taken broadly, really means. He outlines the three bases of modern socialism as the direction of industry by a democratic state instead of by private capitalists; as a universal Federal Republic to take the place of the present nationalist system; and in religion, a human ideal to take the place of theological cults.

As one of the most prominent thinkers in the history of classical liberalism, he contributed extensively to social and political theory, and political economy. Mill died before completing this book but the work contains substantial food for thought. He discusses the attitude toward property of the poorer classes of society, and contends that socio-economic matters pertinent to society ought to be examined anew by every successive generation. Mills also provides an in-depth review of the various Utopian Socialists of the nineteenth century.

The most powerful legislators in the world are ripe targets for hostile foreign intelligence services and domestic subversive organizations. Do you want to know why members of Congress have embraced radical left policies that damage America and empower her enemies? Did you know that U.S. Congressmembers need no background checks to do their jobs? You would need a security clearance to work for the CIA or FBI, but not to chair the House Intelligence Committee. You would be strictly vetted to work for the Department of Homeland Security, but would require zero scrutiny to chair the House ...

Is socialism desirable? Is it even possible? In this concise book, one of the world's leading political philosophers presents with clarity and wit a compelling moral case for socialism and argues that the obstacles in its way are exaggerated. There are times, G. A. Cohen notes, when we all behave like socialists.

Danny Katch brings together the two great Marxist traditions of Karl and Groucho to provide an entertaining and insightful introduction to what the socialist tradition has to say about democracy, economics, and the potential of human beings to be something more than bomb-dropping, planet-destroying, racist fools.

The United States' approach to China since the Communist regime in Beijing that began the period of reform and opening in the 1980s was based on a promise that trade and engagement with China would result in a peaceful, democratic state. Forty years later, the hope of producing a benign People's Republic of China utterly failed. The Communist Party of China deceived the West into believing that its system and the Party-ruled People's Liberation Army were peaceful and posed no threat.

America is in a new Cold War with Russia even more dangerous than the one the world barely survived in the 20th century. All of this is exacerbated by Washington’s war-like demonizing of the Kremlin leadership and by Russiagate’s unprecedented allegations. US mainstream media accounts are highly selective and seriously misleading. American “disinformation”, not only Russian, is a growing peril.

Democratic Socialism: Somewhere Between Democracy and Tyranny is intended to be an expose of the evolution of socialist ideals, the implementation and subsequent failure of socialist governments generally at the hands of power-grabbing tyrants. However, when socialist programs are integrated with capitalism, some are, at least initially, successful in theory.

Socialism is strangely impervious to refutation by real-world experience. Over the past hundred years, there have been more than two dozen attempts to build a socialist society, from the Soviet Union to Maoist China to Venezuela. All of them have ended in varying degrees of failure. But, according to socialism’s adherents, that is only because none of these experiments were “real socialism”.

The bastard step-child of Milton Friedman and Anthony Bourdain, Socialism Sucks is a bar crawl through former, current, and wannabe socialist countries around the world. Free-market economists Robert Lawson and Benjamin Powell travel to countries like Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, and Sweden to investigate the dangers and idiocies of socialism - while drinking a lot of beer.

What is socialism? Does it have a future, or has it become an outdated ideology in the 21st century? This audiobook considers the major theories in socialism and explores its historical evolution from the French Revolution to the present day. Michael Newman argues that socialism has always been a diverse doctrine, while nevertheless containing a central core of interconnected values and goals: a critique of capitalism; an optimistic view of human beings; and the belief that it is possible to establish societies based on egalitarianism, social solidarity, and cooperation.

Conservative columnist and think tank research fellow Justin Haskins examines the moral perils of Marx's socialism. In Socialism Is Evil, Haskins makes the moral case against socialism and also describes in detail what socialists believe, the differences between socialism and communism, why Marx's socialism will never be completely adopted, and why even the more moderate European-style socialism, called "democratic socialism" by some, is highly immoral and anti-American.

Aniela Jaffé was given permission to quote from Jung’s highly personal "Red Book," and she does so in her essay on Jung’s creative phases. Shortly before her death, the author also updated and expanded her long-famous article addressing the National Socialism accusations leveled against Jung. Sir Laurens van der Post provides a sharp echo in his Epilogue, written especially for this edition.

*** Also listen to podcasts based on the book *** This remarkable book is an unblinking look at the problems of our current democracy and, more importantly, a road map to get ourselves back on course. It calls our politicians to task and identifies the many places where changes to our government systems will put control back in the hands of “We, the People”. Through an extensive critique of the status quo, we come to realize just how much, regardless of our political philosophy, all of us absolutely agree upon. Topics include electoral representation, taxation, special interest groups, ...

Socialism, Fascism, and the Tyranny of Big Government surveys the main statist politico-economic systems. And it concludes with a brilliant analysis of the nature and causes of tyranny.

After the fall of the Soviet Union and its global empire, most observers assumed that the 70-year argument that socialism was superior to capitalism was over.

When Jim DeMint wrote Saving Freedom: We Can Stop America's Slide into Socialism in 2009, he believed an energized and informed America could put the brakes on the "progressive" bus driven by big government backers. What couldn't be foreseen was the devastating effect Barack Obama would have on our Constitutional Republic in eight years.

In COMPASS FOR TRAILBLAZERS: For Solidarity of Nations, Kibbutz Socialism, and Zionism, Yaniv Sagee provides an in-depth study that calls for social change and a reexamination of the “Hashomer Hatzair” values, based on the reality of the third decade of the 21st century. COMPASS FOR TRAILBLAZERS calls for a discussion on the future shared life between the two nations living in Israel, between the nations of the Middle East, and the world. COMPASS FOR TRAILBLAZERS calls for renewed conversation regarding the essence of Zionism, and is particularly addressed to the left-wing in Israel, as...

The debate between the merits of capitalism and socialism has once again moved from the quiet halls of academia to the forum of public discourse. While these competing economic systems choose differing means, they both strive to achieve the same end: A stateless utopia on earth. Natural Law and the Theory of Economic System Fluidity provides the theoretical basis for allowing the strengths of each economic system to peacefully work together to achieve this end and examines both the natural laws which govern economics as well as the moral basis for the existence of the nation state.

Edward Bellamy was an American socialist and author who had a penchant for utopian thinking and a passion for discussing a better world and the way in which can build one. Nowhere in Bellamy’s work is this more evident that in The New Nation. First published in 1981, The New Nation is an inspiring and beautifully crafted piece of writing that is at one political and emotionally driven. Bellamy writes of the sheer necessity to build a new nation or remodel the old one in a completely new way for the benefit of the people.
