History of the Deep State
Mainstream Media has led us to believe that the Deep State is only as old as the Obama Administration. However, it has presented itself in many forms throughout our nation’s history. Both Democrat and Republican Presidents alike have been involved in this 240 + conspiracy against America. Jeremy Stone has elucidated a clear definition of the origin, evolution, objectives, and the hostile foreign intentions of The Deep State. Its agenda is an Anti-American one, with Socialist/Enlightenment thinkers at Its core. Nefarious foreign interference of our 'Nation-State' has not come out of the Trump administration, as the left has fostered in its 'collusion' narrative. Instead, it has been mounting for centuries as a far-leftist agenda, with the ultimate goal of toppling our country from within. Without a complete understanding of the Deep State and its history, we are doomed to fail in attempting to eliminate it. While it is possible to stifle the Deep State and its foreign conspiracy against 'The State,' we must understand what it is, a Global-Socialist-Matrix/New World Order, designed to topple Governments from within.

Mother State : A Political History of Motherhood
Charman 'writes with intelligence and generosity, and sprinkles her history with details that are enraging, provocative and, frequently, amusing' - Megan Gibson, The New StatesmanMother State 'blows open the dominant view of mothering … instead Charman’s history from below situates a radical collective conception of motherhood and care as central to all our lives… meticulously researched...Mother State is both a prodigious historical analysis and a sobering one' - Ruth Gilbert, New Internationalist'Intellectually luminous and deeply affecting, Mother State is a remarkable, revelatory and life-changing book, and an indispensable tool and guide in the ongoing struggle towards radical, liberated and collective care' – Daisy Lafarge'With ease and precision, Charman examines all the waged and unwaged labour that create mothers as well as the political processes that produce their vexed relationship to the British state.Mother State is at once a sorely needed politicised history of motherhood – sharp and critical – and a tender love letter to her own mother’s knees' – Lola Olufemi'This monumental book will inform the future of action and thinking on the politics of motherhood for generations to come.I hope everyone reads this book. It feels like we are in a new golden age of political, cultural and critical writing, with Helen Charman at the forefront' – Holly Pester'Mother State places Helen Charman alongside Jacqueline Rose, Angela Davis, and Denise Riley in a lineage of psychical and political history that lets us re-see this ubiquitous form of care at a critical juncture' – Hannah Zeavin'A necessary study and intervention into contemporary thinking around care, love and the multifarious ideas of the ‘mother’.Helen Charman writes with such intellectual command, open generosity and nuance: she is a genius' – Rachael AllenMotherhood is a political state.Helen Charman makes a radical case for what liberated mothering could be, and tells the story of what motherhood has been, from the 1970s to the 2010s. When we talk about motherhood and politics together, we usually talk about isolated moments - the policing of breastfeeding, or the cost of childcare.But this is not enough: we need to understand motherhood itself as an inherently political state, one that has the potential to pose a serious challenge to the status quo. In Mother State, Helen Charman uses this provocative insight to write a new history of Britain and Northern Ireland.Beginning with Women's Liberation and ending with austerity, the book follows mothers' fights for an alternative future.Alongside the mother figures that loom large in British culture, from Margaret Thatcher to Kat Slater, we meet communities of lesbian squatters, anti-nuclear campaigners, the wives of striking miners and teenage mothers protesting housing cuts: groups who believed that if you want to nourish your children, you have to nourish the world around them, too. Here we see a world where motherhood is not a restrictive identity but a state of possibility. 'Mother' ceases to be an individual responsibility, and becomes an expansive collective term to organise under, for people of any gender, with or without children of their own.It begins with an understanding: that to mother is a political act.

What is the history of the nation-state?
The concept of the nation-state emerged in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries, as a result of the decline of feudalism and the rise of centralized monarchies. This period saw the consolidation of territories and the establishment of centralized governments, which sought to create a sense of national identity and loyalty among their subjects. The Peace of Westphalia in 1648 is often cited as a key moment in the development of the nation-state, as it recognized the sovereignty of individual states and laid the groundwork for the modern system of international relations. The nation-state model spread globally through colonization and imperialism, and today it is the dominant form of political organization around the world.

Unitary state or federal state?
The choice between a unitary state and a federal state depends on the specific needs and circumstances of a country. A unitary state may be more suitable for smaller countries with a homogenous population and a strong central government, while a federal state may be more appropriate for larger countries with diverse populations and a need for regional autonomy. Ultimately, the decision should be based on the balance of power between the central government and regional authorities, as well as the ability to effectively govern and meet the needs of the population.

Is state intervention necessary for the preservation of culture and morality?
State intervention can play a role in preserving culture and morality, particularly in cases where there are threats to cultural heritage or widespread moral decay. However, the extent of state intervention should be carefully balanced with individual freedoms and rights. It is important for the state to support and protect cultural institutions, traditions, and values, but it should also allow for diversity and individual expression within the bounds of a shared moral framework. Ultimately, a collaborative approach involving both state intervention and community engagement is necessary for the preservation of culture and morality.

A Brief History of Atlantis : Plato's Ideal State
The Atlantis story remains one of the most haunting and enigmatic tales from antiquity, and one that still resonates very deeply with the modern imagination.But where did Atlantis come from, what was it like, and where did it go to?Atlantis was first introduced by the Greek philosopher Plato in two dialogues the Timaios and Kritias, written in the fourth century BC.As he philosophises about the origins of life, the Universe and humanity, the great thinker puts forward a stunning description of Atlantis, an island paradise with an ideal society.But the Atlanteans degenerate and become imperialist aggressors: they fight against antediluvian Athens, which heroically repels their mighty forces, before a cataclysmic natural disaster destroys the warring states.His tale of a great empire that sank beneath the waves has sparked thousands of years of debate over whether Atlantis really existed.But did Plato mean his tale as history, or just as a parable to help illustrate his philosophy?The book is broken down into two main sections plus a coda - firstly the translations/commentaries which will have the discussions of the specifics of the actual texts; secondly a look at the reception of the myth from then to now; thirdly a brief round-off bringing it all together.

Arctic State Identity : Geography, History, and Geopolitical Relations
This book sets out to answer what it means to hold a formal title as one of the eight ‘Arctic states’; is there such a thing as an Arctic state identity, and if so, what does this mean for state personnel?It charts the thoughtful reflections and stories of state personnel from three Arctic states: Norway, Iceland, and Canada, alongside analysis of documents and discourses.This book shows how state identities are narrated as both geographical and temporal – understood through environments, territories, pasts and futures – and that any identity is always relational and contextual.As such, demonstrating that to understand Arctic geopolitics we need to pay attention to the people whose job it is to represent the state on a daily basis. And more broadly, it offers a ‘peopled’ view of geopolitics, introducing the concept and framework of ‘state identity’. -- .

Moroccan Other-Archives : History and Citizenship after State Violence
Finalist, 2024 ASA Best Book PrizeMoroccan Other-Archives investigates how histories of exclusion and silencing are written and rewritten in a postcolonial context that lacks organized and accessible archives.The book draws on cultural production concerning the “years of lead”—a period of authoritarianism and political violence between Morocco’s independence in 1956 and the death of King Hassan II in 1999—to examine the transformative roles memory and trauma play in reconstructing stories of three historically marginalized groups in Moroccan history: Berbers/Imazighen, Jews, and political prisoners. The book shows how Moroccan cultural production has become an other-archive: a set of textual, sonic, embodied, and visual sites that recover real or reimagined voices of these formerly suppressed and silenced constituencies of Moroccan society.Combining theoretical discussions with close reading of literary works, the book reenvisions both archives and the nation in postcolonial Morocco.By producing other-archives, Moroccan cultural creators transform the losses state violence inflicted on society during the years of lead into a source of civic engagement and historiographical agency, enabling the writing of histories about those Moroccans who have been excluded from official documentation and state-sanctioned histories. The book is multilingual and interdisciplinary, examining primary sources in Amazigh/Berber, Arabic, Darija, and French, and drawing on memory studies, literary theory, archival studies, anthropology, and historiography.In addition to showing how other-archives are created and operate, El Guabli elaborates how language, gender, class, race, and geographical distribution are co-constitutive of a historical and archival unsilencing that is foundational to citizenship in Morocco today.

Does the Bible state that the sun revolves around the Earth?
No, the Bible does not explicitly state that the sun revolves around the Earth. In fact, the Bible describes the sun as rising and setting, which aligns with the Earth's rotation on its axis. The Bible uses language and descriptions that were common at the time it was written, but it does not provide scientific explanations about the motion of celestial bodies.

Is there a deep state or a state within a state in Germany?
There is no concrete evidence to suggest the existence of a deep state or a state within a state in Germany. The German political system is known for its transparency and strong democratic institutions, which make it unlikely for such a phenomenon to exist. While there may be bureaucratic inefficiencies or power struggles within the government, there is no indication of a hidden network of individuals or groups exerting control over the state. Overall, the idea of a deep state in Germany is not widely supported by credible sources.
