God Is a Conservative

God Is a Conservative

Kenneth J. Heineman

New York University Press
2005
pokkari
From Billy Graham and Ronald Regan to Newt Gingrich and William Bennett, God is a Conservative provides an important look at the role of religion in conservative politics in modern America. Kenneth J. Heineman reveals the profoundly religious nature of contemporary conservatism, offering an intriguing look at the social history of moral politics over the last three decades, and the still tremulous aftershocks of the New Deal. With a new Preface that examines the Bush presidency, including a provocative analysis of his re-election, and the rising influence of the Conservative Right, God is a Conservative is essential reading for understanding today's American political landscape.

A Switch in Time

A Switch in Time

Kenneth M. Pollack

Brookings Institution
2006
nidottu
There is no greater foreign policy challenge for the United States today than the reconstruction of Iraq. The Saban Center for Middle East Policy at Brookings recently assembled a small group of experts to consider U.S. policy toward Iraq in all of its dimensions —military, political, and economic. Saban Center director of research Ken Pollack took the recommendations of the Iraq Policy Working Group and combined them with findings from trips to Iraq and to U.S. Central Command in Tampa to produce A Switch in Time, a comprehensive strategy for stabilizing Iraq in the near term and setting it back on the path toward political and economic advancement. The current U.S. approach is encountering considerable difficulty and appears unlikely to produce a stable Iraq within the next few years, not only because of the military insurgency but also because of government failure in Iraq: the overthrown Saddam regime was not replaced by effective military or political institutions. The alternative proposed by some Bush administration critics, however —a rapid withdrawal —would not serve U.S. interests. While many thoughtful experts have attempted to offer a realistic third course of action, none has so far succeeded. This report proposes such a strategy by detailing the essential need to integrate military, political, and economic policies in Iraq. This concise and straightforward book offers a comprehensive, alternative approach to current U.S. military, political, and economic policies in Iraq.

A New Syntax of the Verb in New Testament Greek: An Aspectual Approach

A New Syntax of the Verb in New Testament Greek: An Aspectual Approach

Kenneth L. McKay

Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi
1994
nidottu
In recent decades it has been increasingly recognized that the forms of the verb in ancient Greek, including that of the New Testament, do not signal time (past, present, future), but aspect (the way each activity is viewed in relation to its context). Applying the new insights, this book offers a concise and clearly stated account of the way the verb works in the syntax of New Testament Greek. Its approach is pragmatic, with emphasis on context rather than theory. It can be read as a coherent account, and its four indexes also make it a handy reference book.

A Beginner's Guide to Practicing Scriptural Imagination

A Beginner's Guide to Practicing Scriptural Imagination

Kenneth H. Carter; Ken Carter

Upper Room Books
2020
nidottu
What is scriptural imagination? The word imagination does not mean the Bible is fantasy or untrue. A scriptural imagination allows us to look at the world through the stories and images of the Bible. As we view our world with scriptural imagination, we enter a continuous process of becoming more Christlike.In A Beginner's Guide to Practicing Scriptural Imagination, Kenneth Carter focuses on four scripture passages to give readers an easy entry into the practice of scriptural imagination. Carter advocates reading and reflecting on the biblical texts with a group.Carter says that almost every situation and problem we face can be addressed by men and women sitting with biblical texts, listening for what God might be saying through those passages. Equally important is taking time to listen attentively to people who are marginalized. As readers practice the spiritual exercises in this book, they will grow as disciples of Jesus who can then transform their world.

A Guide to Marx's 'Capital' Vols I–III

A Guide to Marx's 'Capital' Vols I–III

Kenneth Smith

Anthem Press
2012
sidottu
This book provides a comprehensive guide to all three volumes of Karl Marx’s ‘Capital’, with advice on further reading and points for further discussion. Recognizing the contemporary relevance of ‘Capital’ in the midst of the current financial crisis, Kenneth Smith has produced an essential guide to Marx’s ideas, particularly on the subject of the circulation of money-capital. This guide uniquely presents the three volumes of ‘Capital’ in a different order of reading to that in which they were published, placing them instead in the order that Marx himself sometimes recommended as a more user-friendly way of reading. Dr Smith also argues that for most of the twentieth century, the full development of the capitalist mode of production (CMP) has been undermined by the existence of a non-capitalist ‘third world’, which has caused the CMP to take on the form of what Marx called a highly developed mercantile system, rather than one characterized by an uninterrupted circuit of industrial capital of the kind he expected would develop. While the guide can be read as a book in its own right, it also contains detailed references to Volumes I–III so that students, seminars and discussion groups can easily make connections between Smith’s explanations and the relevant parts of ‘Capital’.

To Catch A Nazi

To Catch A Nazi

Kenneth Markel

Changing Lives Press
2016
nidottu
Ernst Mannheim, an ex-Nazi thought to be dead, feels ashamed he didn't do more to save Freda, his Jewish wife, from his own people. Haunted by his failure, he tries to find his 'orphaned' son Willy—"the last Mannheim." After years of searching, he finds his son (now David Menard) working as a bookbinder in New York City. Longing for contact, he begins a correspondence not as a father but as an uncle. It makes the telling of his side of the story bearable. Berlin 1933: as a boy of nine, Willy Mannheim (the son) is tricked by the Gestapo into revealing his mother's whereabouts. She is ultimately tortured and left to die, but not before she tells Willy the name, Anton Kessler. His uncle's letters reveal a brutal and unforgiving past, his involvement in the search for the men responsible for his wife's death. Menard, too, has been searching for the men responsible. This in turn causes his painful journey to take on greater urgency. Years later, at an auction of Kessler's work, Menard finds more than he'd hoped for. The auctioneer turns out to be the son of the man who built the furnaces at the death-camps. By now, it is clear that both father and son are of the same mind. But, the father is old and while Menard seems to be outmanned, and outmaneuvered, he relentlessly forces out the truth and his chance for redemption.
