In the First Iowa Infantry the writer of this book was a private soldier. He desires to give a history of the Regiment, and feels that he cannot do so in a proper way without drawing a brief picture of the conditions that preceded the great conflict, so that the reader may understand what was done and why it was done. The story of the great war is not understandable unless one knows the condi- tions of society at the time, the feelings of the people, and the facts which preceded the first enlistments. The story of the First Iowa Infantry is typical. It was the first body of troops which the State sent out. The Regiment came up to expectation ; it brought glory to the State ; it set the pace to all other regiments that came after it, and became a matter of State pride.

  • The Second Return of Unchecked Capitalism
    Draft May 2012 FOR COMMENTS – NOT TO BE CITED OR COPIED WITHOUT AUTHOR’S PERMISSION ULF DAHLSTEN THE SECOND RETURN OF UNCHECKED CAPITALISM How an International Rule of Law can reap the benefits of the global market economy and strengthen national and regional sovereignty. The second return of unchecked capitalism Draft version May 2012 SUMMARY Many in the Western world feel that something has gone terribly wrong. They see a systemic crisis, a crisis that stretches from the financial system to the political, from the ecological system to the social, from the availability of natural resources, food and water to their use. It has been easy, especially of late, to identify mistakes and put the blame for those on politicians who have spent more than they should have had, on individual countries that are worse sinners than others, on inventions such as the Euro currency union or on the development of a global market economy, or, perhaps more correctly, the lack of adequate management of this development. Others, especially outside the Western world, do not recognize the crisis, or see it as Western problem, often because they are benefiting from the forces which globalization has unleashed, more than they are hurt by the drawbacks. Hundreds of millions in Asian and other countries have after all been lifted out of poverty during the last decades. Clearly, these are valid points and legitimate views. However, they are in my mind missing an important underlying trend and that is the destructive Second Return of Unchecked Capitalism. The public order has lost its upper hand in relation to the market and as long as this situation remains we will see the return of the drawbacks of un-checked capitalism.
