Conservative Political Commentator - HOME Conservative Political Commentator Regime Shift: Comparative Dynamics of the Japanese Political Economy by T. J. Pempel, The Liberal Democratic Party, which dominated postwar Japan, lost power in the early 1990s. During that same period, Japan's once stellar economy suffered stagnation and collapse. Now a well-known commentator on contemporary Japan traces the political dynamics of the country to determine the reasons for these changes and the extent to which its political and economic systems have been permanently altered. T.J. Pempel contrasts the political economy of Japan during two decades: the 1960s, when the nation experienced conservative political dominance and high growth, and the early 1990s, when the "bubble economy" collapsed and electoral Politics changed. The different dynamics of the two periods indicate a regime shift in which the present political economy deviates profoundly from earlier forms. This shift has involved a ...

The Dixiecrats lost the battle in 1948, but, ...

Wayne Smith, Over the years, archaeologists have developed a number of techniques for conserving historical artifacts for future generations. Up to now, however, these methods have provided artifacts only a limited lifespan and in some cases they do not work well with water-logged materials. Within the past few years, archaeological chemistry and concerns of longevity testing have become central issues in the development of conservation treatment strategies. This problem became particularly acute when ...

Conservative Christian Music - HOME Conservative Christian Music Not by Politics Alone: The Enduring Influence of the Christian Right by Sara Diamond, As surprisingly large numbers of Christian men began arriving in Washington, D.C., for a Promise Keepers rally, observers were divided over whether to ascribe a covert political agenda to this explicitly religious gathering. Some felt that the opposition to gay rights and abortion on the part of the organization's founder instilled the event with partisan implications; others maintained that politics alone could not explain the popularity of an event whose speakers stressed broader themes ... reconciliation. In this incisive work, Sara Diamond takes our understanding of this event -- and the Christian Right as a whole -- beyond what is commonly known about the movement's electoral clout, shedding light on the rarely seen boundaries and intersections where politics and culture converge. Examining how conservative evangelical groups have maintained their influence in the United States for more than two decades, Diamond shows that these groups have drawn much of their strength from a broad and loosely affiliated web of cultural institutions designed to meet their adherents' personal, as well as ...

Since their first publication, J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels have brought joy to children and adults alike. Many conservative Christians in the United States, however, have decried the books as wicked, as preaching witchcraft and the occult, and as glamorizing dishonesty.

Conservative Christian Woman - HOME Conservative Christian Woman Three Spiritualist Novels by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, This volume brings together for the first time three novels that illustrate the distinguished American writer Elizabeth Stuart Phelps's enduring interest in the afterlife. The daughter of a Calvinist minister, Phelps could not reconcile herself to the idea of a heaven full of spirits who had cut their ties to those left behind on Earth. Rather, she became convinced of the viability of the Spiritualist view that a vital link to earthly life continues in the hereafter. Articulating an alternative to conservative church doctrine, Phelps assured her readers -- many of them women bereft of their loved ones by the Civil War -- that Spiritualist ideas about the afterlife were not fundamentally at odds with Scripture. All three of the novels collected here -- The Gates Ajar (1868), Beyond the ...

Difference Between Conservative and Liberal - HOME Difference Between Conservative and Liberal Liberal Economics and Democracy: Keynes, Galbraith, Thurow, and Reich by Conrad P. Waligorski, Conrad Waligorski argues that, despite individual differences, liberal economists are bound together by a common vision of the public good. Collectively, these thinkers represent a strong countertradition to the laissez-faire, free-market philosophy of James Buchanan, Milton Friedman, F. A. Hayek, Newt Gingrich, and other proponents of minimalist government and trickle-down economics. Waligorski locates the roots of the liberal economic tradition in the thought exemplified by U.S. Progressives John Dewey and Louis Brandeis, and by British liberal L. T. Hobhouse. But he also shows that these economists are no ivory-tower theorists, that they are actively engaged with real-life problems and politics. A fitting sequel and companion to Waligorski's last book, The Political Theory of Conservative Economists, this new work provides a provocative challenge to the relentless conservative and libertarian attacks on the regulatory welfare state.
