ISEAS Young Hearts and Minds: Understanding Malaysian Gen Z's Political Perspectives and Allegiances
Book SynopsisThe 15th general election (GE15) in Malaysia produced surprising results. The conservati ve coaliti on of PN emerged as the dark horse of the electi on, overtaking the longest-ruling coaliti on, BN, by a signifi cant margin. The two largest coaliti ons post-GE15, PH and PN, represent ideological opposites, which may spell a polarized future for Malaysian youths. This paper intends to understand what happened to the youth votes and provide possible hypotheses for future trends.In West Malaysia, consti tuencies with a larger share of young voters (under 30 years old) registered a higher voter turnout rate. A majority of seats with 30 per cent or more of voters under 30 years old (considered "young" seats) were won by PN, followed by PH, and thirdly BN. This demonstrated PN's relati vely stronger hold on young seats in GE15. Discrepancies between pre-GE15 survey fi ndings and actual results could be explained by the Shy PN factor—or PN-leaning voters' reti cence towards revealing their preference—and a swing from BN to PN.

Clarendon Press Public Moralists
Book SynopsisThis imaginative and unusual book explores the moral sensibilities and cultural assumptions that were at the heart of political debate in Victorian and early twentieth-century Britain. It focuses on the role of intellectuals as public moralists, and suggests ways in which their more formal political theory rested upon habits of response and evaluation that were deeply embedded in wider social attitudes and aesthetic judgements. Stefan Collini examines the characteristic idioms and strategies of argument employed in periodical and polemical writing, and reconstructs the sense of identity and of relation to an audience exhibited by social critics from John Stuart Mill and Matthew Arnold to J. M. Keynes and F. R. Leavis.Dr Collini begins by situating the leading intellectuals in the social and political world of the Victorian governing classes. He explores fundamental values like `altruism'', `character'', and `manliness'', which are revealed as the animating dynamic of much of the politiTrade ReviewStefan Collini is a sophisticated, witty and thoughtful historian of ideas ... Collini is a fertile and gifted author ... His book on Matthew Arnold ... is a marvel of a compression and trenchant good sense ...

Clarendon Press Stanislaw Brzozowski and the Polish Beginnings of Western Marxism
Book SynopsisThis book introduces the English-speaking reader to the thought of Stanislaw Brzozowski (1878-1911), the outstanding Polish philosopher and literary critic. Although practically unknown in the West, Brzozowski is an important but neglected forerunner of the intellectual tradition of `Western Marxism'', most commonly associated with Georg Lukács and Antonio Gramsci.Concentrating first on the early phase of Brzozowski''s thought, Professor Walicki goes on to analyse his ideas on the working class and its relation to the intelligentsia and contemporary working-class ideologies. Finally he deals with aspects of his thought which go beyond the Marxian problematic and round off the intellectual portrait of the man.Brzozowski''s anti-naturalistic approach resulted in a radical reinterpretation of Marxism which dealt with many of the problems of the revolt against positivism in European philosophy. Professor Walicki argues that the retrieval of the philosophical and humanist aspect of Marxism,Table of ContentsBiographical note; On some specific features of early Polish Marxism; `Scientific Marxism' and `Philosophy of action': The early phase of Brzozowski's thought; The critique of `Scientific Marxism'; Idealism as philosophy of action; The first outline of a new interpretation of Marxism; Marxism as an Anti-Engelsian `Philosophy of Labour': Knowledge, nature, and history; The ideal of autocreation; The encounter with the Russian `Neo-Marxists'; Beyond marxism: From anti-Engelsian Marxism to a re-evaluation of Marx's thought: New inspirations and confrontations; The further development of Brzozowski's `Philosophy of Labour'; Continuity and change in Brzozowski's thought; The intelligentsia and the working class: Different conceptions of the intelligentsia and its calling; The intelligentsia and revolution; The paradoxes of the intelligentsia; The working class, socialism, and syndicalism; The working class and the nation; Culture and Society: Individualism and sociologism; The social tasks of art and literary criticism; Sociological criticism and the critique of sociology; The illusion of consciousness; National cultures; Religion: From religious individualism to militant atheism; The greatness and weakness of Catholicism; Towards transcendence; Instead of a conclusion; Brzozowski's works

Clarendon Press Human Welfare and Moral Worth
Book SynopsisThomas Hill, a leading figure in the recent development of Kantian moral philosophy, presents a series of essays that interpret and develop Kant''s ideas on ethics. The first part of the book focuses on basic concepts: a priori method, a good will, categorical imperatives, autonomy, and constructivist strategies of argument. Hill goes on to consider aspects of human welfare, and then moral worth--the nature and grounds of moral assessment of persons as deserving esteem or blame. He offers illuminating discussions of happiness, beneficence, personal values, conscience, moral desert, moral dilemmas, and feelings of regret. He is critical of Kant at many points, but he shows how many familiar objections miss the mark. Two previously unpublished essays challenge the views of other influential Kant scholars and defend alternative interpretations of Kant on beneficence, supererogation, and what it means to ''set oneself an end''. These clear and careful writings show moral, poltical, and socTrade ReviewThis collection brings together work of the calibre that has made Thomas E. Hill, Jr., a leader in the interpretation and development of Kant's ethics. Hill exhibits a rare combination of sensitivity to complex moral issues, insight into Kant's texts, and analytical incisivenss. In clear, jargon-free prose, these essays expertly draw the reader into the core of Kantian moral philosophy. * Ethics *Human Welfare and Moral Worth gives us plenty to think about ... the volume has the great virtue of defending positions that are subtle and reasonable as well as innovative and engaging. * Ethics *... splendidly produced volume. Thomas Hill has developed a distinctive line of Kant exposition and analysis which will repay close reading and careful consideration. Hill is an attentive and sensitive interpreter of Kant who takes Kant's major ethical writings as a starting point rather than an end point of argument. Hill is concerned to establish how Kant's practical philosophy engages with our lives and society and in an instructive and stimulating way. Hill is scholarly without being unduly scholastic. His project is to bring Kant's ideas alive by relating them to our contemporary moral and political dilemmas. In this I think he succeeds. * Kantian Review *Table of ContentsIntroduction ; 1.

Oxford University Press Hollywood Left and Right
Book SynopsisIn Hollywood Left and Right, Steven J. Ross tells an important story that has escaped public attention: the emergence of Hollywood as a vital center of political life and the important role that movie stars have played in shaping the course of American politics. Ever since the film industry relocated to Hollywood early in the twentieth century, it has had an outsized influence on American politics. Through compelling larger-than-life figures in American cinema - Charlie Chaplin, Louis B. Mayer, Edward G. Robinson, George Murphy, Ronald Reagan, Harry Belafonte, Jane Fonda, Charlton Heston, Warren Beatty, and Arnold Schwarzenegger - Hollywood Left and Right reveals how Hollywood''s engagement in politics has been longer, deeper, and more varied than most people would imagine. As shown in alternating chapters, the Left and the Right each gained ascendancy in Tinseltown at different times. From Chaplin, whose movies almost always displayed his leftist convictions, to Schwarzenegger''s nearTrade Reviewan intriguing series of biographical studies. * Independent *Table of ContentsIntroduction: Movie Stars and Politics ; 1.

Cambridge University Press The Spanish Republic at War 19361939
Book SynopsisThis 2002 book is a comprehensive analysis of the forces of the Spanish left - interpreted broadly - during the civil war of 1936â9, and the first of its kind for more than thirty years. It argues two crucial propositions. First, that the wartime responses (and limitations) of the Spanish left - republicans, socialists, communists and anarcho-syndicalists - can be understood only in relation to their pre-war experiences, world views, organisational structures and the wider Spanish context of acute uneven development which had moulded their organisations over previous decades. Second, that the overarching influence that shaped the evolution of the Republic between 1936 and 1939 was the war itself: the book explores the complex, cumulative effects of a civil war fought under the brutally destabilising conditions of an international arms embargo.Trade Review'… by some distance the best book I have read in any language on the Spanish Republic during the Civil War. The detailed - and thoroughly analytical - narrative of the politics of the Republic outshines anything that has been written before … A very major work by a mature historian writing at the height of her powers.' Professor Paul Preston, London School of Economics and Political Science'… a highly detailed and densely argued contribution to the long-running historical debate about the nature of the wartime Spanish republic.' History'Not the least of the merits of this massively impressive book is its setting of the Spanish Civil War, as seen from the standpoint of an observer of the politics and society of the Republican zone, in contexts that historiography tends to ignore … Graham brilliantly illuminates the immaturity of Spanish political life … This book is so rich that one can find nuggets of gold everywhere …'. War in History'… this work is an absolute must for all who want to look beyond the simple events and varying accounts of the Spanish Civil War. … Graham is the author of a brilliant analysis that is both highly interesting and highly readable. Even those who already know a great deal about the Spanish Civil War will be able to draw new knowledge from this work.' International Review of Social History'Helen Graham's study constituted a comprehensive analysis and detailed description of Republican politics during the war period … her book may well be considered as a kind of updated synthesis, which will be extremely useful for anyone interested in the Civil War.'
