On Milne Library's Shelves
By One Vote by Michael F. Holt
Publication Date: 2008
With electoral votes disputed in three states, a Democrat winning the popular vote, and the Supreme Court stepping in to overrule Florida court decisions, the presidential election of 1876 was an eerie precursor to that of 2000. Rutherford Hayes's defeat of Samuel Tilden has been dubbed the "fraud of the century"; now one of America's preeminent political historians digs deeper to unravel its real significance.
Citizen and Subject by Mahmood Mamdani (Preface by); Nicholas Dirks (Series edited by); Geoff Mamdani (Series edited by); Sherry Ortner (Series edited by)
Publication Date: 2018
In analyzing the obstacles to democratization in post- independence Africa, Mahmood Mamdani offers a bold, insightful account of colonialism's legacy--a bifurcated power that mediated racial domination through tribally organized local authorities, reproducing racial identity in citizens and ethnic identity in subjects.
Hobbes's Kingdom of Light by Devin Stauffer
Publication Date: 2018
Was Hobbes the first great architect of modern political philosophy? Highly critical of the classical tradition in philosophy, particularly Aristotle, Hobbes thought that he had established a new science of morality and politics.
