This book was released on 2019-06-15. The Republic available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The Republic is a Socratic dialogue, written by Plato around 380 BCE, concerning the definition of justice, the order and character of the just city-state and the just man. The dramatic date of the dialogue has been much debated and though it must take place some time during the Peloponnesian War, "there would be jarring anachronisms if any of the candidate specific dates between 432 and 404 were assigned". It is Plato's best-known work and has proven to be one of the most intellectually and historically influential works of philosophy and political theory. In it, Socrates along with various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether or not the just man is happier than the unjust man by considering a series of different cities coming into existence "in speech", culminating in a city (Kallipolis) ruled by philosopher-kings; and by examining the nature of existing regimes. The participants also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the roles of the philosopher and of poetry in society.

Excerpt from The Call of the Republic a National Army and Universal Military Service Not long ago, in the cover illustration of a great popular weekly, Uncle Sam was represented holding in his hands a flint-lock musket and closely examining its ancient mechanism. The expression on his face was a puzzled one, for he seemed not only to be unfamiliar with the obsolete piece, but impatient with it. It seemed as if bis mind had fully grasped the danger 6 of depending upon a weapon so thoroughly antiquated and inadequate to his pressing needs. The picture was a good one, and I could not but wonder if the cartoonist himself understood the fullness of its significance. This reflection led me on to further cogitation and I determined to answer, in a very thorough way, the question that arose in my mind. That question was, not how shall he defend himself, hut with what weapon will Uncle Sam henceforth oppose his foes? The observations that follow in this book comprise the answer.

This book was released on 2020-04-14. The Call available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Everyone talks about "Saudi money," but no one really knows what it is. Journalist Krithika Varagur, a longtime chronicler of religion and politics, tells the story of Saudi influence as it has never been told before, in a book reported across the breadth of the Muslim world, from Nigeria to Indonesia to Kosovo. The Call connects the dots on Saudi Arabia's campaign to propagate its brand of ultraconservative Islam worldwide after it became oil-rich in the 20th century. Varagur visits diverse outposts of its influence, from a Saudi university in Jakarta to a beleaguered Shi'a movement in Nigeria. She finds that the campaign has had remarkably broad and sometimes uniform effects, from the intolerance of religious minorities to the rise of powerful Saudi-educated clerics. The kingdom has spent billions of dollars on its da'wa, or call to Islam, at many points with the direct support of the United States. But what have been the lasting effects of Saudi influence today? And what really happened to their campaign in the 21st century, after oil revenues slumped and after their activities became increasingly subject to international scrutiny? Drawing upon dozens of interviews, government records, and historical research, The Call lays out what we really talk about when we talk about Saudi money.
