Welcome to the latest from ! You all know about that (probably apocryphal) Chinese curse: “May you live in interesting times.” Well, whoever said it, here we are. This season’s list will help you chart your way through these troubled waters and, I am pleased to say, provide at least a few reasons for hope. Let me mention here just a few highlights:

 In Putin’s Master Plan, Douglas E. Schoen shows in scarifying detail how Vladimir Putin is attempting to divide , destroy NATO, and reclaim a dominant role for Russia on the international scene. This is a wake-up call for Americans who have been lulled into complacency by assurances that the is over and fundamental con- flict is a thing of the past.

 On the domestic front, hysteria over a supposed epidemic of rape has turned college campuses into totalitarian redoubts where ideological extremists conduct witch- hunts. In The Campus Rape Panic, K. C. Johnson and Stuart Taylor set the record straight about this pseudo crisis and the rise of mobocracy in higher education.

 In a free society, you shouldn’t have to ask permission to exercise basic liberties. Yet our increasingly regulated and bureaucratized society has gone a long way towards transforming essential freedoms into privileges. In The Permission Society, Timothy Sandefur shows how the right to speak freely, to earn a living, even the right to take medicine to save one’s own life are now treated as privileges that the government may grant or withhold at will.

 Not all the news is bad. On the allegro side of the ledger, we are pleased to be publish- ing Melanie Kirkpatrick’s sparkling book about that most American of American holi- days, Thanksgiving. In this beautifully designed meditation on the most paradigmatic American holiday, Kirkpatrick offers an engrossing history that is also an act of national recuperation.

 Let me conclude by introducing you to our latest initiative, Encounter Intelligence. We asked ourselves “Who will invent America’s next great century?” and we saw that the big ideas that will revolutionize the way we live will not emerge from our nation’s capital. They will be dreamt up, as they always have been, by enterprising Americans who hope to create positive value for others. Our first installment in this series is Jared Meyer’s Uber-Positive: Why Americans Love the Sharing Economy.

I hope you will peruse this entire catalogue of new of titles—and our extensive backlist. And please be sure to investigate our beautifully redesigned web site at encounterbooks.com, where you will find a veritable galaxy of features about our books, our authors, and Encounter’s mis- sion to revitalize the engines of democratic capitalism and the perquisites of individual liberty. Thank you for your continued support.

Roger Kimball Publisher Robert C. O’Brien While America Slept foreword by Hugh Hewitt Restoring American Leadership to a World in Crisis

obert C. O’Brien’s collection of essays on U.S. R national security and foreign policy, with a foreword by Hugh Hewitt, is a wake up call to the American people. The world has become steadily more dangerous under President Obama’s “lead from behind” foreign policy. The Obama Administration’s foreign policy has emboldened our adversaries and disheartened our allies. Indeed, Obama’s nuclear deal with is a 1938 moment. At the same time, the U.S. military has been cut and risks return- ing to the hollow force days of the 1970s. O’Brien lays out the challenges and provides the common sense “peace through strength” solutions that will allow the next presi- dent to make America great again.

Robert C. O’Brien is a trial lawyer with an international practice at Larson O’Brien LLP in . He was a senior foreign policy advisor to Governor Scott Walker’s 2016 presidential campaign. Robert served as a senior advisor to Governor Mitt Romney on both of his presidential campaigns. He lives in La , CA.

hroughout history, kings and emperors have Tpromised “freedom” to their people. Yet these freedoms were really only permissions handed down from on high. The American Revolution inaugurated a new vision: people have a basic right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happi- ness, and government must ask permission from them. Sadly, today’s increasingly bureaucratic society is beginning to turn back the clock, and transform America into a nation where our freedoms—the right to speak freely, to earn a living, to own a gun, to use private prop- erty, even the right to take medicine to save one’s own life—are again treated as privileges the government may grant or withhold at will. Timothy Sandefur examines the history of the distinction between rights and privileges that played such an important role in the American experi- ment—and how we can fight to retain our freedoms against the growing power of government. Illustrated with dozens of real-life examples—including many cases he litigated himself—Sandefur shows how treating freedoms as government-created privileges under- mines our Constitution and betrays the basic principles of human dignity.

Timothy Sandefur is Vice President for Litigation at the Goldwater Institute. Before joining Goldwater, he served 15 years as a litigator at the Pacific Legal Foundation, where he won important victories for economic liberty in several states. He lives in Chander, AZ.

ladimir Putin has a master plan to divide Europe, Vdestroy NATO, reclaim Russian influence in the world, and most of all to marginalize the and the West in order to achieve regional hegemony and global power. Until now, Putin’s unified strategy and vision for Europe has not been thoroughly discussed or articulated in any meaningful way. Putin’s Master Plan is the first compre- hensive attempt to systematically explain Putin’s global strategy that could inevitably and inexorably lead to the breakup of the NATO alliance and potentially to war with the West. The West has no strategy, no plan, and no tactics to confront Putin’s master plan other than limited economic sanctions, which have done little to deter Putin’s aggres- sion—and may well have encouraged and facilitated it. Putin’s Master Plan makes the case that it is essential to wake up to Putin’s strategy to divide Europe, destroy NATO, and build a new empire in the former Soviet Union. Russia has demonstrated an extraordinary level of aggression, most boldly by its outright invasions of Georgia and Ukraine. Rus- sia’s terrified neighbors have been left without an alternative to Russian domination by American weakness and a divided Europe, and even once-stalwart American allies such as Georgia are on the brink of becoming part of Putin’s new empire in Europe. Putin has made it clear that he sees NATO expansion as a fundamental threat to Russian nationhood, and he is systematically challenging the NATO alliance as well as the United States. So far, he is winning.

he United States has been shaped by three sweep- Ting political revolutions: Jefferson’s “revolution of 1800,” the Civil War, and the New Deal. Each of these upheavals concluded with lasting institutional and cultural adjust- ments that set the stage for a new phase of political and economic development. Are we on the verge of another upheaval, a “fourth revolution” that will reshape U.S. politics for decades to come? There are signs to suggest that we are. James Piereson describes the inevitable political tur- moil that will overtake the United States in the next decade as a consequence of economic stagnation, the unsustain- able growth of government, and the exhaustion of postwar arrangements that formerly underpinned American pros- perity and power. The challenges of public debt, the retire- ment of the “baby boom” generation, and slow economic growth have reached a point where they require profound changes in the role of government in American life. At the same time, the widening gulf between the two political parties and the entrenched power of interest groups will make it difficult to negotiate the changes needed to renew the system. Shattered Consensus places this impending upheaval in historical context, reminding readers that Americans have faced and overcome similar trials in the past, in relatively brief but intense periods of political conflict. While others claim that the United States is in decline, Piereson argues that Americans will rise to the challenge of forming a new governing coalition that can guide on a path of dynamism and prosperity.

James Piereson is president of the William E. Simon Foun- dation and a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute. He lives in Sleepy Hollow, NY.

e all know the story of Thanksgiving. Or do we? W This uniquely American holiday has a rich and little known history beyond the famous feast of 1621. In Thanksgiving, award-winning author Melanie Kirk- patrick journeys through four centuries of history, giving us a vivid portrait of our nation’s best-loved holiday. Draw- ing on newspaper accounts, private correspondence, his- torical documents and cookbooks, Thanksgiving brings to life the full history of the holiday and what it has meant to generations of Americans. Many famous figures walk these pages—Washington, who proclaimed our first Thanksgiving as a nation amid controversy about his Constitutional power to do so; Lin- coln, who wanted to heal a divided nation sick of war when he called for all Americans—North and South—to mark a Thanksgiving Day; FDR, who set off a debate on state’s rights when he changed the traditional date of Thanksgiving. Ordinary Americans also play key roles in the Thanks- giving story—the New England Indians who boycott Thanksgiving as a Day of Mourning; Sarah Josepha Hale, the nineteenth-century editor who successfully campaigned for Thanksgiving to be a national holiday; the 92nd Street Y in New York City, which founded Giving Tuesday. While the rites and rituals of the holiday have evolved over the centuries, Kirkpatrick shows that its essence remains the same: family and friends feasting together in a spirit of gratitude, neighborliness and hospitality.

Melanie Kirkpatrick is a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and a former deputy editor of the Wall Street Jour- nal’s editorial page. She lives in rural Connecticut with her husband, Jack David.

hilosophers usually emphasize the importance Pof logic, clarity, and reason. Therefore when they NEVEN SESARDIĆ address political issues they will usually inject a dose of rationality in these discussions, right? When Reason Wrong. This book gives a lot of examples showing the Goes on Holiday unexpected level of political irrationality among leading contemporary philosophers. The body of the book presents Philosophers in Politics a detailed analysis of extreme leftist views of a number of famous philosophers and their occasional descent into apology for—and occasionally even active participation in—totalitarian politics. Most of these episodes are either virtually unknown (even inside the philosophical commu- nity) or have received very little attention. The author tries to explain how it was possible that so many luminaries of twentieth-century philosophy, who invoked reason and exhibited rigor and careful thinking in their professional work, succumbed to irrationality and ended up supporting some of the most murderous political regimes and ideologies. The huge leftist bias in contempo- rary philosophy and its persistence over the years is cer- tainly a factor but it is far from being the whole story. Interestingly, the indisputably high intelligence of these philosophers did not actually protect them from descend- ing into political insanity. It is argued that, on the contrary, both their brilliance and the high esteem they enjoyed in the profession only made them more self-confident and less cautious, thereby eventually making them blind to their betrayal of reason and the monstrosity of the causes they defended.

re we on the cusp of détente with Iran? Conven- Ational wisdom certainly seems to believe so. Since the start of diplomacy between the Islamic Republic and the P5+1 powers (the United States, France, England, Russia, China, Germany) in November 2013, hopes have been run- ning high for a historic reconciliation of Iran’s clerical regime with the West. Yet there is ample reason for skepticism that the United States and its allies can truly curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions by diplomatic means. Moreover, the West’s current focus on Iran’s nuclear program is deeply dangerous insofar as it fails to recognize—let alone address—Iran’s other interna- tional activities or its foreign policy aims. Those objectives are global, and they continue to grow in scope and menace. In this sobering book, Ilan Berman illuminates the mul- tiple dimensions of the Iranian threat and exposes the per- ils of lodging confidence in diplomacy with the Islamic Republic.

he Left, Right and Center all hate them: pow- Terful special interests who use government power for their own private benefit. In an era when the Left hates “fat cats” and the Right despises “crony capitalists,” now there is an artful and memorable one-word pejorative they can both get behind: Bottleneckers. A “bottlenecker” is anyone who uses government power to limit competition thereby reaping monopoly profits and other benefits. Bottleneckers work with politicians to con- strict competition, entrepreneurial innovation, and oppor- tunity; they limit consumer choice; they drive up consumer prices; and they support politicians who willingly overstep the constitutional limits of their powers to create, main- tain, and expand these anticompetitive bottlenecks. The Institute for Justice’s new book, Bottleneckers, coins a new word in the American lexicon, and provides a rich history and well-researched examples of bottleneckers in one occupation after another—from alcohol distributors to taxicab cartels—pointing the way to positive reforms.

n 2009, a conglomerate of unelected, self-appointed I officials met behind closed doors to create a set of rules that would outline what children must learn in every grade in core K–12 classes. In 2010, the Obama administration required states to use these rules for curriculum and tests to have a chance at extra federal money during the Great Recession. Three years later, most Americans told pollsters they had no idea what Common Core was. Their children were beginning to find out, however. Pullmann tugs on a thread that leads to a big tangle of his- tory, politics, and intrigue that together help explain why small children must sit and cry over math homework while their parents look on helplessly. Early test results suggest Common Core means American kids will learn less. Why, then, did we do it? Who made out like bandits while kids and self-governance suffered? And how can Americans ensure their children won’t be served the same rewarmed brain hash they have rejected time and time again?

hat’s it like to be the son or daughter of a dicta- Wtor? A monster on the Stalin level? What’s it like to bear a name synonymous with oppression, terror, and evil? Jay Nordlinger set out to answer that question, and does so in this book. He surveys 20 dictators in all. They are the worst of the worst: Stalin, Mao, Idi Amin, Pol Pot, Saddam Hussein, and so on. The book is not about them, really, though of course they figure in it. It’s about their children. Some of them are absolute loyalists. They admire, revere, or worship their father. Some of them actually suc- ceed their father as dictator—as in North Korea, Syria, and Haiti. Some of them have doubts. A couple of them become full-blown dissenters, even defectors. A few of the daugh- ters have the experience of having their husband killed by their father. Most of these children are rocked by war, prison, exile, or other upheaval. Obviously, the children have things in common. But they are also individuals, making of life what they can. The main thing they have in common is this: They have been dealt a very, very unusual hand. What would you do, if you were the offspring of an infa- mous dictator, who lords it over your country? An early reader of this book said, “There’s an opera on every page”: a drama, a tragedy (or even a comedy). Another reader said he had read the chapter on Bokassa “with my eyes on stalks.” Meet these characters for yourself. Marvel, shudder, and ponder.

n recent years, politicians led by President Obama I and prominent senators and governors have teamed with extremists on campus to portray our nation’s cam- puses as awash in a violent crime wave—and to suggest (preposterously) that university leaders, professors, and students are indifferent to female sexual assault victims in their midst. Neither of these claims has any basis in reality. But they have achieved widespread acceptance, thanks in part to misleading alarums from the Obama Administra- tion and biased media coverage led by . The panic about campus rape has helped stimulate— and has been fanned by—ideologically skewed campus sexual assault policies and lawless commands issued by federal bureaucrats to force the nation’s all-too-compliant colleges and universities essentially to presume the guilt of accused students. The result has been a widespread disre- gard of such bedrock American principles as the presump- tion of innocence and the need for fair play. This book will use hard facts to set the record straight. It will, among other things, explore many cases since 2010 in which innocent or probably innocent students have been branded as sex criminals and expelled or otherwise pun- ished by their colleges. And it will show why all students— and society as a whole—are harmed when our nation’s universities abandon pursuit of truth to accommodate the passions of the mob.

n this warm and intimate memoir Judge Wilkinson I delivers a chilling message. The 1960s inflicted enor- mous damage on our country; even at this very hour we see the decade’s imprint in so much of what we say and do. The chapters reveal the harm done to the true meaning of edu- cation, to our capacity for lasting personal commitments, to our respect for the rule of law, to our sense of rootedness and home, to our desire for service, to our capacity for national unity, to our need for the sustenance of faith. Judge Wilkinson does not seek to lecture but to share in the most personal sense what life was like in the 1960s, and to describe the influence of those frighteningly eventful years upon the present day. Judge Wilkinson acknowledges the good things accom- plished by the Sixties and nourishes the belief that we can learn from that decade ways to build a better future. But he asks his own generation to recognize its youthful mistakes and pleads with future generations not to repeat them. The author’s voice is one of love and hope for America. But our national prospects depend on facing honestly the full mag- nitude of all we lost during one momentous decade and of all we must now recover.

his book is a lively intellectual history of a small Tcircle of thinkers, especially, but not solely, Harry Jaffa and Walter Berns, who challenged the “mainstream” lib- eral consensus of political science and history about how the American Founding should be understood. Along the way they changed the course of the conservative move- ment and had a significant impact on shaping contempo- rary political debates from constitutional interpretation to the corruption of government today. Most importantly, these thinkers explain the deep reasons for patriotism— why we should love America not just because it is our coun- try, but because it is a free and just country.

Schachter No Child Left Alone Getting the Government Out of Parenting

hildren are taken from their parents because C they are obese. Parents are arrested for letting their kids play outside alone. Sledding and swaddling is banned. From games to school, breastfeeding to daycare, the over- bearing bureaucratic state keeps getting between kids and their parents. The state intervening in decisions that used to be up to parents is commonplace today. Whether to allow children to go un-chaperoned to the local pizza shop, what drinks or food can get sent to school, whether to breast or bottle feed babies were all choices that used to be left to you and me. Not anymore. Now the state’s safety, hygiene and health regulations rule, and its judgment might not coincide with yours. No Child Left Alone will explore the growing problem of an intrusive and interfering state breathing down the necks of average parents just trying to do the best they can for themselves and their families. As a mom to four kids, I have come to know the intru- sions of the nanny state first hand. I should be used to it, but I’m not. Instead, all the government-mandated parent- ing gets under my skin. And I’m not alone. No Child Left Alone will highlight the problem while shining a light on those parents fighting to take back control over their families.

his is the story of how Title IX, a 1972 law Tintended to ban sex discrimination in education, became a monster that both the federal government and many college administrators treat as though it supersedes both the U.S. Constitution and hundreds of years of com- mon law. It is a story about the victims of this law—men and women both—and of the unaccountable government bureaucrats at the Departments of Education and Justice who repeatedly prioritize an extreme brand of politics over free speech, fundamental fairness, and basic human decency. Though help may come too late for many of the present victims of Title IX abuse, there are still measures that colleges and courts can take to curb these abuses until Congress acts—or we see a Presidential administration that cares more about restoring justice and the rule of law than it does about sex and gender politics.

f you want to know why American Indians have the I highest rates of poverty of any racial group, why suicide is the leading cause of death among Indian men, why native women are two and a half times more likely to be raped than the national average, and why gang violence affects American Indian youth more than any other group, do not look to history. There is no doubt that white settlers devas- tated Indian communities in the 19th and early 20th centu- ries. But it is our policies today – denying Indians ownership of their land, refusing them access to the free market and failing to provide the police and legal protections due to them as American citizens – that have turned reservations into small third-world countries in the middle of the rich- est and freest nation on earth. The tragedy of our Indian policies demands reexamina- tion immediately – not only because they make the lives of millions of American citizens harder and more dangerous – but also because they represent a microcosm of everything that has gone wrong with modern liberalism. They are the result of decades of politicians and bureaucrats showering a victimized people with money and cultural sensitivity instead of what they truly need – the education, the legal protections, and the autonomy to improve their own situation. If we are really ready to have a conversation about American Indians, it is time to stop bickering about the names of football teams and institute real reforms that will bring to an end this ongoing national shame.

ince the summer of 2014, America has been con- S vulsed with a protest movement known as Black Lives Matter. That movement holds that police officers are among the greatest threats – if not the greatest threat – facing young black males today. Policing and the rest of the criminal jus- tice system – from prosecutors to drug laws – single out minority communities for gratuitous and heavy-handed enforcement, the charge goes, resulting in an epidemic of “mass incarceration” that falls most heavily on blacks. The War on Cops challenges that narrative. Through vivid, street-level reporting, Heather Mac Donald gives voice to the many residents of high-crime neighborhoods, rarely heard in the media, who support proactive policing and want more of it. Mac Donald tackles contested tactics, from stop and frisk to “broken windows,” along with the argument that racist drug statutes and enforcement lie behind the black incarceration rate, to explain why proactive policing is the greatest public policy success story of the last quarter cen- tury, resulting in a record-breaking national crime drop that no criminologist or even police chief foresaw. That crime drop is now at risk, however, thanks to the nonstop agitation against the police led by the Black Lives Matter movement. The War on Cops is a call for a more hon- est and informed debate about policing, crime, and race, before the public safety gains of the last twenty years are lost.

fter the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin A Franklin was asked, “Well, Doctor, what have we got – a Republic or a Monarchy?” Franklin’s response: “A Repub- lic – if you can keep it.” This book argues: we couldn’t keep it. A true republic privileges the common interest above the special interests. To do this, our Constitution estab- lished an elaborate system of checks and balances that sep- arates power among the branches of government, and places them in conflict with one another. The Framers believed that this would keep grasping, covetous factions from acquiring enough power to dominate government. Instead, only the people would rule. Proper institutional design is essential to this system. Each branch must manage responsibly the powers it is granted, as well as rebuke the other branches when they go astray. This is where subsequent generations have run into trouble: we have overloaded our government with more power than it can handle. The Constitution’s checks and balances have broken down because the institutions cre- ated in 1787 cannot exercise responsibly the powers of our sprawling, immense twenty-first century government. The result is the triumph of special interests over the common interest. James Madison called this factionalism. We know it as political corruption. Corruption today is so widespread that our government is not so much a republic, but rather a special interest democracy. Everybody may participate, yes, but the con- tours of public policy depend not so much on the common good, but rather the push-and-pull of the various interest groups encamped in Washington, DC.

e all know  what narcissism is: the egotistical W Narcissus unable to tear himself away from his reflection. But what is moral narcissism? The short form is this: What you believe, or claim to believe or say you believe – not what you do or how you act or what the results of your actions may be – defines you as a person and makes you “good.” In twenty-first century America, you are what- ever you say you are, whatever you proclaim your values to be, their consequences be damned. Like the 1960s song by The Animals, it’s all okay “if your intentions are good.” No one will even notice if the inner cities go up in flames or global warming turns into an Ice Age. Better than that, your status will rise as you continue to parrot the received wisdom. In I Know Best, Roger L. Simon chronicles the major issues of our day – climate, gun control, , educa- tion, income inequality, immigration, race (especially), women’s rights, gay rights, , microag- ressions and trigger warnings, media and entertainment bias – to reveal the profound influence of moral narcissism on our republic, almost always for the worse. I Know Best shows how narcissism has become the prime hidden motor for our republic’s demise because it makes people blind to reality and renders democracy moot. Unchecked, moral narcissism is the royal road to a modern and distinctly American brand of fascism.

oday, the Federal Reserve is among the most Tdisliked entities in the United States, having joined the IRS as the object of heaving electoral hatred. Americans despise the Fed, but if they are honest they are also a bit confused about why they so loathe our central bank or about what the Fed actually does – and, if they are really honest, how banking and credit work in the first place. The truth is, credit is not a difficult concept to under- stand if explained clearly and simply. And understanding credit is key to understanding the economy and why the Fed and its most famous function – setting the interest rate – is so totally backwards. With the help of Taylor Swift, Uber, , coach Jim Harbaugh, and robots, Who Needs the Fed? explains credit, how it works, and how our misunder- standing of credit and money has given the Fed power that it can’t possibly use wisely. Who Needs the Fed? is an everyman’s case against the Fed that will leave readers enlightened, entertained and, above all, prepared to explain why the Fed is happily incon- sequential on its best days, while perilous on its worst.

hen his teenaged son  Christopher, brain- W damaged in an auto accident, developed a 106- degree fever following weeks of unconsciousness, John Campbell asked the attending physician for help. The doc- tor refused. Why bother? The boy’s life was effectively over. Campbell refused to accept this verdict. He demanded treatment and threatened legal action. The doctor finally relented. With treatment, Christopher’s temperature sub- sided almost immediately. Soon afterwards he regained consciousness and today he is learning to walk again. This story is one of many Wesley J. Smith recounts in his classic critiques of the modern bioethics movement, Cul- ture of Death. In this newly updated edition, Smith chroni- cles how the threats to the equality of human life have accelerated in recent years, from the proliferation of eutha- nasia and the Brittany Maynard assisted suicide firestorm, to health care rationing posed by Obamacare and the explosive Planned Parenthood controversy. Culture of Death reveals how more and more doctors have withdrawn from the Hippocratic Oath and how “bio- ethicists” influence policy by posing questions such as whether organs may be harvested from the terminally ill and disabled. This is a passionate, yet coolly reasoned book about the current crisis in medical ethics by an author who has made “the new thanatology” his consuming interest.

hat happens when a leading conservative econo- Wmist goes mano a mano with today’s most influen- tial exponent of left-liberal economics, over free markets versus government interventionism? Here are highlights of that showdown between Stephen Moore of the Heritage Foundation and Paul Krugman, Nobel laureate. Moore and Krugman sparred over eight major eco- nomic issues in our national debate – from whether the policy response to the crisis of 2008 was successful, to the outlook for Obamacare, to the “red state / blue state” divide. The contest was cordial and spiced with wit. (Does air conditioning explain the migration from blue to red states? Is Houston still uninhabitable?) This high-powered matchup illuminates a clash of worldview that leads to opposing policy prescriptions. More important, it will help you draw conclusions about which economic policies work.

ow did the civil rights movement transform from a H cause opposing racism into a movement endorsing racial preferences and privileges for select groups based on their skin color? David Horowitz was a participant in the civil rights movement of the 1960s and 1970s and a witness to the events and betrayals that turned a noble movement on its head. In Progressive Racism, Horowitz tells the story of how racial extortionists on the Left hijacked the civil rights movement and gave it a mob mentality in which white Americans are regarded as guilty before the fact and Afri- can Americans are regarded as innocent even when facts prove them guilty, even when their crimes are committed against other African Americans. Progressive Racism examines how the term “racism” itself has been robbed of its meaning and turned into a political weapon to bludgeon opponents into silence. It exposes how the so-called civil rights movement became an oppressor of African Americans by bolstering disastrous social policies that have destroyed the black family, blighted the lives of millions of African American children, and created a permanent black “underclass” dependent on government aid. Above all, it is an indictment of the hypoc- risy that today governs the public discourse on race, so that an angry mob in Ferguson Missouri seeking to execute a police officer because he was white can be described as a legitimate civil rights protest and be supported by the pres- ident of the United States.

othing is more central to the idea of America N than that this is a country where everyone can rise to the top with ambition and hard work. That is the promise of America, but now the promise has been broken. We’ve become an aristocratic country, where rich par- ents raise rich kids and poor parents raise poor kids. We’ve been told that the changes are structural, that there’s noth- ing we can do about this. But that doesn’t explain why other First World countries are beating us hands down on the issue of mobility. What’s different about America is the structure of our political parties. The Democratic Party is an alliance of the poorest of Americans, those who have little chance to rise, and a New Class of the comfortably rich professionals, media leaders and academics who shape the contours of American politics and circumscribe our policies. It’s an alliance of both ends against the middle that recalls the Red Tories of parliamentary countries. Aristocracy, not mobility, is the natural default position of a society, but what is natural is seldom benign and never necessary. America can restore the middle and become less aristocratic by emulating countries that are more truly mobile. The Way Back shows us how.

yszard Legutko lived and suffered under commu- R nism for decades – and he fought alongside the Polish anti-communist movement to abolish it. But, having lived for two decades under a liberal democracy, he has discov- ered that these two political systems have a lot more in common than one might think. They both stem from the same historical roots in early modernity, and accept simi- lar presuppositions about history, society, religion, politics, culture and human nature. In The Demon in Democracy, Legutko explores the shared objectives between these two political systems, and explains how liberal democracy has over time lurched towards the same goals, albeit without the Soviet style’s brutal measures. Both systems, says Legutko, reduce human nature to that of the common man who is led to believe himself liber- ated from the obligations of the past. Both the communist man and the liberal democratic man refuse to admit that there exists anything of value outside the political systems to which they pledged their loyalty. And both systems refuse to undertake any critical examination of their ideo- logical prejudices.

here once free expression and diversity of opin- Wion were sacrosanct to the left, today’s liberals employ speech codes, trigger warnings, boycotts, and shaming rituals to stifle freedom of thought, expression, and action. How did this happen? How did American liberalism become an intolerant, rigidly dogmatic ideology opposed to free thinking? In The Closing of the Liberal Mind, Kim Holmes offers a sweeping and original survey of American liberalism, rang- ing from the Enlightenment to contemporary politics, that explains why mainstream liberals has forsaken its Ameri- can roots for the authoritarian prejudices of the radical and largely European Left. Indeed, it is no longer appropriate to call it liberalism at all, argues Holmes, but illiberalism – a set of ideas in gov- ernment, and the culture that demand strict political and social obedience, and which, under the guise of “inclusive- ness,” is working to eliminate the “wrong” ideas and the “wrong” people from the political process entirely.

When the wreckage he and his comrades had created became clear to him in the mid- 1970s, he left. Three decades of second thoughts then made him this movement’s principal intellectual antagonist. “For better or worse,” as Horowitz writes in the preface, “I have been condemned to spend the rest of my days attempting to understand how the left pursues the agendas from which I have separated myself, and why.” When Horowitz began his odyssey, the left had already escaped the political ghetto to which his parents’ genera- THE BLACK BOOK tion and his own had been confined.

How it achieved its AN ANATOMY OF LEFTIST ILLUSIONS, 1974-2012 present success and what that success portends are the overarching subjects of Horowitz’s conservative writings. Through the unflinching focus of one singularly engaged witness, the identity of a destructive movement that con- stantly morphs itself in order to conceal its identity and mission becomes disturbingly clear. Horowitz reflects on the years he spent at war with his own country, collaborating with and confronting radical figures like Huey Newton, Tom Hayden and Billy Ayers, as he made his transition from what the writer Paul Berman described as the American left’s “most important theorist” to its most determined enemy.

The conventional narrative is that the financial crisis was caused by Wall Street greed and insufficient regulation of the financial sys- WHAT REALLY CAUSED THE WORLD’S tem. That narrative produced the Dodd-Frank Act, the most comprehensive financial-system regulation since the New Deal. There is evidence, however, that the Dodd-Frank Act has slowed the recovery from the recession. If insuffi- WORST FINANCIAL CRISIS cient regulation caused the financial crisis, then the Dodd- Frank Act will never be modified or repealed; proponents will argue that doing so will cause another crisis. A competing narrative about what caused the financial AND WHY IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN crisis has received little attention. This view, which is accepted by almost all Republicans in Congress and most conservatives, contends that the crisis was caused by gov- ernment housing policies. This book extensively docu- PETER J. WALLISON ments this view. For example, it shows that in June 2008, before the crisis, 58 percent of all US mortgages were sub- prime or other low-quality mortgages. Of these, 76 percent were on the books of government agencies such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. When these mortgages defaulted in 2007 and 2008, they drove down housing prices and weak- ened banks and other mortgage holders, causing the crisis. With Hidden in Plain Sight, no one can claim that the financial crisis was caused by insufficient regulation, or defend Dodd-Frank, without coming to terms with the data this book contains.

Why are long- established political parties in steep decline throughout Europe while protest parties ranging all the way from the far-right to the mainstream to the far-left are on the rise? Do the European elections portend real change in Europe, or will the political elites succeed in further pursuing their agenda of creating a unified Europe without accountability to voters? The New Totalitarian Temptation: Global Governance and the Crisis of Democracy in Europe is a must-read for those who wish to understand the EU at its core. This is the first book to fully expose the EU’s commitment to the utopian ideology of global governance, and its ambition to achieve an unprecedented “world peace” by establishing a new, ill- defined global order that would be essentially unaccount- able to nation-states and their citizens. The New Totalitarian Temptation explains how the EU has become inherently anti-democratic and unimpeded by electorates who do not sign on to their utopian vision. It shows how the EU seeks to transform not just the world order, but also remake the very lives of its citizens by pro- moting policies that deny tradition, local communities, and the basic constancy of human nature. Most dangerous of all, by seeking a global order in which the sovereign pow- ers of all nation-states, including the United States, are severely curtailed, the EU is putting the world’s most important alliance – that of America and Europe – at risk.

Submission Guidelines

Non-Agented Authors: Due to a small staff and other considerations, Encounter Books no longer reviews non-agented submissions and we take no responsibility for unsolicited submissions. Authors who wish to find a literary agent to represent them should consult Writer’s Market or Literary Marketplace, both of which are available in most public libraries.

Agents: Encounter Books publishes serious non-fiction in the areas of history, religion, biography, education, public policy, current affairs, social sciences, and politics. We are dedicated to well con- ceived and well argued works that promise to stimulate dialogue and that will have a long shelf life in bookstores and libraries, as well as within the classroom.

· Please review our catalog before submitting material.

· Please do not send the entire manuscript.

· Encounter Books does not accept manuscript proposals via e-mail.
