Recommends American Politics
Uh, another book I'd recommend is Sam Huntington's American uh, politics promise of disharmony, which is a a historical look at these eras of reform in American politics. And that we have this roughly 60-year cycle in which, you know, every 60 years or so, Americans get really dissatisfied with their political institutions and they reform them. And the last time we did that was the 1960s.

Recommends Tyranny of the Majority
So, one book that I think people should read is Lonnie Guineir's Tyranny of the Majority. Now, this was a a book that really influenced me in thinking about the value of proportional representation uh particularly for minority communities.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
