The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox. -

After Terror: Promoting Dialogue Among Civilizations
Per27rev3 10.4.2007 8:34 Stránka 117 (Black plát) ▲ 117 138 REVIEWS Akbar Ahmed and Brian Forst: After Terror: Promoting Dialogue Among Civilizations London: Polity Press, 2005, 160 pages, ISBN: 10 0745635024. “...there is only one good, knowledge, and only one evil, ignorance...” (Socrates) “After Terror” is a compilation of 28 essays composed by the world’s prominent thinkers and activists, put together with the kind initiative of Akbar Ahmed and Brian Forst. Mr. Ahmed is a prominent Pakistani expert on Islamic studies and Mr. Forst is a Professor of Justice, Law and Society at the School of Public Affairs at Washington D.C. The book is a reaction to the events that were set in train by the 9/11 bombings and its goal is to convince its readers that terrorism is surmountable without having to open the Pandora’s box of clashing civilizations. The book is divided into three sections, the first, concerning “The Nature and the Source of the Problem”, the second, concerning “Pathways to dialogue” and finally the last section, “From Concern to Action”. The essays range from objective scholarly analysis to subjective argumentative reasoning. In sum, the book seeks to solve the most pressing problem of international terrorism so that one day we may indeed reach the point “after terror”. In the first essay of the first section called “The Nature and the Source of the Problem”, Zbigniew Brzezinski gives us his ideas concerning the problem at hand. Being a former National Security Adviser to the White House, Mr. Brzezinski gives his insights into the so-called “power of weakness”.1 Here he reflects on the changing nature of international relations where realist hard power is no longer in monopoly, since the game is no longer only played among rational-egoistic nation states. -

the myth of the successfulness of Czechoslovak reforms interrupted by the Soviet invasion of 1968 or their role as inspiration for Gorbachev ’ s perestroika. This is not to say that Ell- man ’ s conclusions are unconvincing or that the book itself lacks a sufficient research basis. Yet, brief descriptions of the economies of the missing states would definitely help to fill the unnecessary gap. To conclude, Socialist Planning is an extremely readable and enriching book for any- body who is interested in the problem of planning in its widest perspective. Indeed, it is an excellent insight into planned economies under socialism. Clarity of the explanations of even the most complex theoretical frameworks of socialist planning makes it accessible not only for economists, but even for an unexperienced reader. In addition, Ellman ’ s book should be understood as a kind of a warning against “ grand ” concepts and campaigns. They, as Ellman convincingly proved, may lead to disasters. Karel Svoboda Bill Press, The Obama Hate Machine: The Lies, Distortions, and Personal Attacks on the President – And Who Is Behind Them. New York: Thomas Dunne Books and St. Martin ’ s Press, 2012. 320 pages. ISBN 978-1250031020 The election of Barack Hussein Obama in the November of 2008 was a watershed moment in American history. Many who watched this enigmatic man ascend to the high- est office of the land anticipated a new era, both politically and culturally, looking towards a post-racial America and the return of civility to the culture of poisoned politics in Wash- ington D.C. Despite these well-intentioned and naively idealist expectations, the Ameri- can people and their newly elected President – the first African-American to achieve that distinction – found themselves in the all-too-familiar milieu of culture wars, political dys- function and latent racism.
