Essays that critically evaluate America's domestic and foreign policy landscape since President Obama took office.President Barack Obama was elected to office on a wave of hope. With his tenure as President of the United States now concluded it is time to take stock of his record at home and abroad. The Bitter Taste of Hope is a collection of essays that critically evaluate America's domestic landscape on the one hand, particularly new social movements, and the nation's foreign policy, particularly in the Middle East, on the other. Stephen Eric Bronner engages a wide-ranging set of political and ideological conflicts that defined the "Age of Obama," especially the most pressing international concerns that have developed in accord with an increasingly globalized world. Bronner illuminates not only well-known events like the American involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq, the plight of the Palestinians, and the Arab Spring but also matters about which the general public knows little such as the national hopes of the Circassians, the complexities of Sudan, and the pitiful existence endured by the Coptic Christians of Cairo. Clearly written, lively in its style, interdisciplinary in conception and timely in its message, The Bitter Taste of Hope will undoubtedly prove required reading for activists and academics alike.
In this expanded second edition, the radical classic Moments of Decision has been updated more than 20 years since it was first published and received the Michael Harrington Book Award. Reexamining observations made after the fall of communism, Stephen Eric Bronner blends political meditation, philosophical critique, and history lessons to illuminate the monumental crises that shaped the 20th and 21st centuries. A cosmopolitan work that touches on the implications of conflicts ranging from World War I to the Arab Spring, Moments of Decision explores the assumptions of socialist historiography and the character of modernity. In clear, accessible prose, Bronner has revived and revised a seminal work that is ideal for students, scholars, and anyone interested in political history, theory, and international relations.PRAISE FOR THE PREVIOUS EDITION:“To guess about the future Bronner has rightly looked into the past, going back to the first world war and the momentous split in the labor movement. His book is a learned, lively and inevitably controversial contribution to the political and historical debates of our age.” - Daniel Singer, THE NATION“Stephen Bronner is a distinctive voice on the American left. He combines a deep understanding of working class political history with a passionate interest in devising a democratic strategy for our time, and is willing to take risks in saying just what that strategy should be. Bronner’s analysis is both principled and shrewd, unsparing and hopeful. Even where one disagrees with it, one learns.” - Joel Rogers, University of Wisconsin Law School, Editor, POLITICS AND SOCIETY
Humanity has pushed itself to the brink of extinction. After a deadly series of internal wars, most of Earth is now an uninhabitable, monster-infested wasteland. All hope seemed lost until an alien society, the Pan-Galactic Republic, came to the rescue, building Sunflower City as a safe haven. This is humanity's last chance for survival.However, not everyone accepts this new inter-species relationship, and a dangerous movement is rising up to compromise humanity's survival yet again. In the midst of this terrifying conflict, an unexpected individual ends up as the only hope for stopping the carnage to come: the Man from Rock Bottom. But will this accidental hero be enough to save Earth itself from planet-wide murder-suicide?
In its portrayal of Judaism as a worldwide conspiracy dedicated to the destruction of Christian civilization, the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion remains one of the most infamous documents ever written. Despite being proven a crude forgery, the pamphlet managed to pervade twentieth-century thinking, often being twisted to suit its handlers' purposes, and to justify the most extreme persecution of the Jews. In A Rumor About the Jews, Stephen Eric Bronner provides a history of this notorious fabrication—one which has renewed salience in a “post truth” society dominated by “fake news"—and explores its influence on right-wing movements throughout the twentieth century and the ongoing appeal of bigotry. This new edition of Bronner's 2000 classic (described by Kirkus as "the best short book on anti-Semitism") expands the arguments of the first edition, bringing the work up to date in a new political context.
In ihrer Darstellung des Judentums als weltweite Verschwörung, die auf die Zerstörung der christlichen Zivilisation abzielt, bleiben die Protokolle der Weisen von Zion eines der berüchtigtsten Dokumente, die jemals geschrieben wurden. Trotz der Tatsache, dass sie als grobe Fälschung entlarvt wurden, gelang es dem Pamphlet, das Denken des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts zu durchdringen, oft verdreht, um den Zwecken ihrer Nutzer zu dienen, und zur Rechtfertigung der extremsten Verfolgung der Juden. In Ein Gerücht über die Juden liefert Stephen Eric Bronner eine Geschichte dieser berüchtigten Fälschung—eine, die in einer von "Fake News" dominierten "Post-Wahrheits"-Gesellschaft neue Relevanz hat—und untersucht ihren Einfluss auf rechte Bewegungen im gesamten zwanzigsten Jahrhundert und die anhaltende Anziehungskraft der Bigotterie. Diese neue Ausgabe von Bronners Klassiker aus dem Jahr 2000 (von Kirkus beschrieben als "das beste kurze Buch über Antisemitismus") erweitert die Argumente der ersten Ausgabe und bringt das Werk in einem neuen politischen Kontext auf den neuesten Stand.

Turmoil in the Middle East has escalated to unprecedented levels in the twenty-first century. Opposing cultural, religious, and political forces have resumed old conflicts and spawned new ones, fighting with words and images as well as bombs and bullets. The path toward peace and reconciliation seems further away and less clear than ever. Stephen Eric Bronner's Peace Out of Reach is both a deeply personal account and a careful analysis of the crises currently threatening the cradle of civilization. Bronner's insights into Middle Eastern tensions are significantly enhanced by his extensive travels in the region. Equally informed by scholarly research and conscientious engagement, Bronner critically evaluates the motivations and actions of the powerful players on the Middle Eastern stage. Peace Out of Reach challenges policymakers to build bridges, recognize common interests, foster genuine diplomacy, and seek realistically navigable roads to lasting peace, rather than resort to propaganda, threats, and military actions.

Author: ¬+ Eric G. Stephan & R. Wayne Pace Description: The world is desperately in need of selfless, Christlike leadership. The world has seen countless leaders: kings, priests, emperors, generals, preachers who led tiny flocks, and warriors who led mighty armies. Yet in all the ages of the earth, from the kings of Europe to the heads of families, a single leader stands out as the One who has had the greatest impact the world has ever known: a humble man named Jesus of Nazareth. What elements combine to create the perfect leader? Using Jesus as the example, authors Eric Stephan and R. Wayne Pace answer this question in, To Lead as Jesus Led. When their search through volumes on leadership failed to capture the essence of true leadership, they decided to turn to the scriptures. There they found the truth, and now they reveal the important elements of successful leadership. With valuable suggestions taken straight from the scriptures, they will help the reader to weed out common misconceptions about leadership and narrow the focus of what leadership really is. Readers will also learn to exercise principles of good leadership and, most important of all, take the steps necessary to becoming the kind of person others will want to follow. To Lead as Jesus Led will prove to be an important addition to the library of anyone who wishes to become more like Jesus in their associations with friends, family, and all those they come in contact with.

The Army expects that the performance of ground forces can be enhanced by improving the networks that tie them together and taking advantage of their special properties. Army networks are used for command and control, intelligence, maneuver, fires, and logistics; they process, store, and transport the information used by the Army. Ultimately these networks extend into the minds of soldiers and leaders and into their interactions with each other.
