Автор: Simon Jonathan D. Название: Code Red: Computerized Elections and the War on American Democracy: Election 2018 Edition ISBN: 1719301646 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781719301640 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 25230.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: CODE RED is about what has happened to American elections, American politics, and America since computers took over the vote counting at the turn of this century.
Its new subtitle reflects the grave plight of the democracy we take for granted, and this new Election 2018 Edition brings the story up to date, including how we got to the Age of Trump and what we need to do now.
There are hundreds of published accounts explaining how we got here: the Clinton campaign this, the economy that, the white suburban voters without college the other thing...
As varied as they may be, what all these accounts have in common is the assumption that, one way or another, we voted our way here. That is, Americans collectively cast the billions of ballots that, over the past half-dozen or so elections, added up to where we are now.
As if we all got behind the wheel of the national car and somehow steered it over the cliff.
That is not the account offered by this book. CODE RED challenges the fundamental assumption that we voted our way over the cliff. It instead explores the possibility that, since the dawn of the computerized elections era--with votes counted in the partisan, proprietary, pitch-dark of cyberspace--the national car has behaved more like a self-driving car, programmer unknown.
It examines those elections and the veer in American politics, culminating in the Age of Trump, that they have produced-reaching conclusions about who or what has been driving the car that are both more chilling (it's not us) and more encouraging (it's not us) than anything else you are likely to read.
Most important, it's a book to read if you're asking how we can re-take the wheel. Because, while it may be of some comfort to realize that we did not vote our way to this scary place, the correlate is that there is serious and urgent work to be done if we are to be able to vote our way out of it.
"CODE RED is unique, easy-to-understand, and vastly important." - Andrew Kreig, Justice Integrity Project
"As a professional statistician, I found CODE RED's data, analysis, and conclusions compelling." - Dr. Elizabeth Clarkson; Chief Statistician, National Inst. For Aviation Research
"Simon's research is thorough and his case is more than compelling ... He has provided an important public service." - John Zogby, founder of The Zogby Poll
Several other democracies have now moved away from the computerized vote tabulation they initially embraced, having recognized the manifest security risks it entails. But America has continued to entrust its elections to privatized and concealed vote counting despite mounting evidence that the vulnerabilities to manipulation are not merely hypothetical but are actually being exploited, with profound political consequences.
CODE RED shows how America has come to adopt and embrace such a system and why we have been so collectively resistant to any serious reconsideration of its safety and appropriateness. We examine the role of election administrators, politicians, and the media in stifling investigation of the validity of suspect American elections and, more generally, of the safety and rationality of a system proven by experts to be easily corrupted.
Like the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, CODE RED sets a Doomsday Clock. The good news is that it's not quite midnight. We can turn this country around, but only if we first restore public, observable vote counting to our elections. It is a simple thing, but until we do it we will continue putting everything we value at risk.
CODE RED combines analysis and advocacy and concludes with a powerful call to action: "We need only to break a spell that has been cast on us--a spell of convenience, passivity, helplessness. We need only remember that democracy is not something that we watch, it is something that we do."

Описание: Should representative governments restrict the democratic rights of their extremist opponents?
The first edited collection to boast an international group of political scientists, legal scholars and philosophers debating the urgent question of how to combat anti-democratic extremism
Asks whether it is permissable for representative governments to restrict the democratic rights of their extremist opponents
Argues both for and against militant democracy - policies that pre-emptively restrict the rights of antidemocratic movements
Militant Democracy refers to the defensive policies democracies use to respond to antidemocratic movements. Can defensive efforts that curtail rights of participation be consistent with democratic values? In this collection of essays, scholars from across politics, philosophy and law address the unresolved practical and theoretical questions concerning democracy and extremism. The collection provides an update to a key contemporary debate in democratic theory and asks us to reconsider the potential promise and costs of militant democracy.

Описание: In Refounding Democracy through Intersectional Activism, Wendy Sarvasy recovers the unacknowledged Progressive Era social democratic feminist refounders who used collective political agency to reshape the body politic. Through intersectional activism, or the bridging of different movements, the refounders, who include Ida Wells-Barnett, Rose Schneiderman, and Jane Addams, created an intersectional, social democratic feminist understanding of democracy that allowed them to imagine their full inclusion.
Sarvasy shows how these activists worked to incorporate women by combining political democracy with the creation of a welfare state. They embedded this nation-state project within a new humanitarian transnational level as they evolved their multileveled social citizenship.
Refounding Democracy through Intersectional Activism demonstrates how a theory-activist dynamic played out in experimental socializing spaces and democratic conversations. It offers an inspirational method for intersectional activists today.
