Picador USA Active Measures
Book SynopsisThis revelatory and dramatic history of disinformation traces the rise of secret organized deception operations from the interwar period to contemporary internet troll farmsWe live in the age of disinformationof organized deception. Spy agencies pour vast resources into hacking, leaking, and forging data, often with the goal of weakening the very foundation of liberal democracy: trust in facts. Thomas Rid, a renowned expert on technology and national security, was one of the first to sound the alarm. More than four months before the 2016 election, he warned that Russian military intelligence was carefully planning and timing a high-stakes political campaign to disrupt the democratic process. But as crafty as such so-called active measures have become, they are not new. The story of modern disinformation begins with the post-Russian Revolution clash between communism and capitalism, which would come to define the Cold War. In Active Measures, Rid

Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) Snitch A History of the Modern Intelligence Informer
Book SynopsisGives an account of how some citizens actively assist state surveillance by informing on others, such as during the Cold War and the campaign against terrorism. The author provides a study of human informers - people who secretly supply information to a domestic security agency (a spy provides information to a foreign intelligence service).Trade Review"Snitch! is a concise and fluent reminder that, for all the publicity about increasing technical surveillance, informers were not just the first way by which states sought security information but are now re-emphasised as a critical feature of countering terrorism. Through examining famous cases and general aspects of the recruitment and use of informers, Steve Hewitt has provided an excellent survey of their utility for ‘authorities' and the personal and social costs entailed." --Peter Gill, University of LiverpoolFascinating, original and carefully researched, 'Snitch!' is an intelligent and superbly readable book on a subject that could not be more timely. --Richard J. Aldrich, Professor of International Security, University of Warwick"A UK expert on security and intelligence contributes to the little existing scholarship on informers with a survey that provides social and historical context on those who supply information to government agencies on intelligence matters rather than crime. From case studies of famous informers (e.g., Ronald Reagan), informer states, and the use of informers in the current 'war on terror,' Hewitt concludes that snitching is a state activity to be feared because of the existing lack of limitations and transparency." -Eithne O'Leyne, BOOK NEWS, Inc.‘This important study aims at a ‘broad, international and accessible survey' that places informers in the context of their times and places.' -- Contemporary ReviewReviewed in French in Veille Magazine.Table of Contents1. Introduction; 2. "Inherent in the Conditions of Human Society:" The Nature of Informing; 3. Informing History; 4. Famous Informers; 5. Informer States; 6. Informers in the "War on Terror"; 7.

Simon & Schuster Hard Measures
Book SynopsisSynopsis coming soon.......Trade Review"Jose Rodriguez guided some of the CIA's greatest counterterror victories, and his story is one of courage, commitment, and decisiveness. In this book, he provides concrete details about the value of the Agency's interrogation program of terrorists -- a program which thwarted terrorist attacks and has made America safer." -- General Michael V. Hayden, USAF (Ret.) Former Director of Central Intelligence"Courageous CIA officers putting themselves in harm's way to protect the nation from ruthless terrorists – only to find they are undercut and second-guessed by posturing politicians. That's not the plot of some new novel—but the real-life story of Jose Rodriguez. In Hard Measures he offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the men and women who stopped al Qa'ida's second-wave of attacks and the price they paid for doing so." -- --Vince Flynn, New York Times bestselling author of Kill Shot

Academica Press The Coming Woke Catastrophe
Book SynopsisWidespread popular belief holds that woke culture, increasingly known as "wokeism," is the great progressive awakening of our time. Its followers and proponents believe that their awakening is one of seeing a better world without discrimination, unfairness, or injustice. Those who refuse to subscribe to woke culture are seen as hateful people who must advocate the opposite of what woke culture claims to stand for. Increasingly anyone who questions the woke message is shouted down, de-platformed, and even cancelled. But is there something less attractive about woke thinking beneath the labels? Few examinations of woke culture have yet appeared, and Chris Heitzman's new book is timely. This book examines what woke culture is, and analyses whether it aligns with its own superficially attractive ideals or whether it is a sinister attempt at mind control that is doomed to fail. The Coming Woke Catastrophe explains why Heitzman is not woke, and why you should not be, either.

University Press of Florida The Politics of Language in Puerto Rico: Revisited
Book SynopsisIn 1991, the Puerto Rican government abolished bilingualism, claiming that "Spanish only" was necessary to protect the culture from North American influences. A few years later bilingualism was restored and English was promoted in public schools.This revised edition of The Politics of Language in Puerto Rico is updated with an emphasis on the dual arenas where the language controversy played out—Puerto Rico and the United States Congress—and includes new data on the connections between language and conflicting notions of American identity. This book shows that officials in both San Juan and Washington, along with English-first groups, used these language laws as weapons in the battle over U.S.-Puerto Rican relations and the volatile debate over statehood.Trade ReviewA significant contribution to the continuing contentious debate on the status of Puerto Rico. . . . In addition to archival resources, the author includes interviews with prominent Puerto Rican political leaders in and out of government to provide a historical and contemporary basis for understanding the language issue on the island."—Choice"A welcome addition to the literature on American politics . . . because it broadens the debate concerning what Puerto Rico is actually all about."—American Political Science Review"A systematic analysis of the factors that explain the Partido Popular Democrático (PPD) government's decision of making Spanish the only official language of the island in 1991. . . . Shows how the autonomist governor Rafael Hernández Colón wanted to send a political message to Congress and to federal policymakers about the cultural and linguistic unfeasibility of statehood for Puerto Rico."—Centro JournalTable of Contents Contents List of Figures List of Tables Acknowledgments 1.
