  • The Roosevelt Myth
    THE ROOSEVELT MYTH BY JOHN T. FLYNN (1948) Flynn was a political reporter who supported the populist objectives of FDR early in his career but became an ardent critic later on, as he saw the blunders and corruption of the Roosevelt administration covered up by a compliant press. FDR was always portrayed as a peace-loving populist on the side of the "little guy" while many of his advisors were war mongers, communist sympathizers, and agents of Wall Street. This expose is a much needed corrective to the 'myth' of Roosevelt populism.

I study how the Conference shaped dollar policy during the second half of 1933 and early 1934. I use daily data to investigate the way in which the Conference and related policies associated to the gold standard affected commodity prices, bond prices, and the stock market.

    NOTE TO THE READER This book is an attempt to arrive at a view of twentieth-century history that explains the events. I have made available all my sources in the Notes. I am aware that the quality of the sources varies. Some are unimpeachable, others of more dubious reliability. The truth is that there is quite simply not always a good source for every judgment in this field. Government of any kind involves secrecy. I have put it all down, warts and all, and leave it to the reader's judgment as to whether it is all smoke and no fire. My people perish for lack of knowledge. Hosea 4:6 It will be enough for me ... if these words of mine are judged useful by those who want to understand clearly the events which happened in the past and which (human nature being what it is) will, at some time or other and in much the same ways, be repeated in the future. My work is not a piece of writing designed to meet the taste of an immediate public; but was done to last for ever. Thucydides, History of The Peloponnesian War ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am grateful to the authors of the books that appear in the Notes, many of whom had the courage to question the official line and describe current affairs as they saw them. I am grateful to many people who have shared my enthusiasm for finding out what is really happening in the world today, the story behind the news: the story the public is not told.

  • Origen E Itinerario De La Formación Juridica En Panamá
    ORIGEN E ITINERARIO DE LA FORMACIÓN JURIDICA EN PANAMÁ OSCAR VARGAS VELARDE* En sentido homenaje a la memoria de Manuel de Jesús Vargas Díaz y Fabián Velarde, jueces y abogados. LOS PRIMEROS INTENTOS Los estudios de la disciplina del Derecho tuvieron cabida en la mente y en la acción de los panameños que transitaron por los inicios republicanos. Si bien el quehacer del Estado se concentró en la escuela primaria y en cierto grado en la escuela secundaria, la iniciativa particular exploró aquellos campos, aunque en torno a sus pormenores los relatos escritos posteriormente -pues no se han encontrado hasta ahora testimonios coetáneos-, revisten algún grado de divergencia.1 * Licenciado en Derecho y Ciencias Políticas por la Universidad de Panamá. Especialista en Derecho Laboral por la Universidad Santa María La Antigua. Magíster en Educación por la Universidad Latinoamericana de Ciencia y Tecnología. Exministro de Trabajo y Bienestar Social. Exembajador de Panamá en Colombia. Exembajador en Misión Especial ante la Organización de Naciones Unidas y la Organización de Estados Americanos. Ex Director General de Política Exterior, ex Secretario General y exconsultor en el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores. Ex Magistrado Presidente de la Dirección de Responsabilidad Patrimonial de la Contraloría General de la República. Profesor de Derecho del Trabajo (en licencia) en la Facultad de Derecho y Ciencias Políticas de la Universidad de Panamá. Magistrado del Tribunal de Cuentas. 1 Sobre el Panamá colombiano es de provecho indicar que mediante decreto del 6 de octubre de 1823, el vicepresidente de Colombia, general Francisco de Paula Santander, creó en la ciudad de Panamá el Colegio del Istmo, para que se educara “la juventud bajo las reglas que por ahora prescribirá el poder ejecutivo”, porque en el departamento del Istmo no había “un colegio bien establecido donde la juventud reciba la educación debida”.

  • The Creature from Jekyll Island
    ABOUT THE COVER The use of the Great Seal of the United States is not without significance. At first we contemplated having an artist change the eagle into a vulture. That, we thought, would attract attention and also make a statement. Upon reflection, however, we realized that the vulture is really harmless. It may be ugly, but it is a scavenger, not a killer. The eagle, on the other hand, is a predator. It is a regal creature to behold, but it is deadly to its prey. Furthermore, as portrayed on the dollar, it is protected by the shield of the United States government even though it is independent of it. Finally, it holds within its grasp the choice between peace or war. The parallels were too great to ignore. We decided to keep the eagle. G. Edward Griffin is a writer and documentary film producer with many successful titles to his credit.
