National political correspondent and award-winning author D.D. Guttenplan's \u003ci\u003eThe Next Republic\u003c\/i\u003e is an extraordinarily intense and wide-ranging account of the recent fall and incipient rise of democracy in America.\u003cbr\u003e     \u003ci\u003eThe Next Republic \u003c\/i\u003eprofiles nine successful activists who are changing the course of American history right now:\u003cbr\u003e     • new labor activist and author Jane McAlevey \u003cbr\u003e     • racial justice campaigner (and mayor of Jackson, Mississippi) Chokwe Antar Lumumba \u003cbr\u003e     • environmental activist (and newly elected chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party) Jane Kleeb \u003cbr\u003e     • Chicago’s first openly gay Latino public official Carlos Ramirez-Rosa \u003cbr\u003e     • #ALLOFUS co-founder Waleed Shahid \u003cbr\u003e     • young architects of Bernie Sanders amazing rise, digerati Corbin Trent and Zack Exley, founders of Brand New Congress \u003cbr\u003e     • and author and anti-corruption crusader Zephyr Teachout.  \u003cbr\u003e     Additionally, the introduction to \u003ci\u003eThe Next Republic\u003c\/i\u003e ties in the election and first year of the Trump presidency to the current rise of populism of the left, and there are three historical chapters that describe key moments in American history that shed light on current events: the Whiskey Rebellion, the Lincoln Republic, and the Roosevelt Republic. Guttenplan understands the magnitude of the problem of democracy, and at the same time the great possibilities for its resurgence. Like a cross between George Packer's \u003ci\u003eThe Unwinding\u003c\/i\u003e and John F. Kennedy's \u003ci\u003eProfiles in Courage\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Next Republic\u003c\/i\u003e is both unyielding and deeply hopeful, the first book to come out of the Trump ascendency that stakes a claim for seeing beyond it.","brand":"Seven Stories Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42378124427519,"sku":"9781609808563","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781609808563_s600x595.jpg?v=1782321516","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781609808563","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
