Mycket av dagens samhällsvetenskap är ganska obegriplig och meningslös.Har universiteten reducerats till betygsproducerande fabriker? Mats Alvesson hävdar att mycket av dagens samhällsforskning är meningslös. Här samtalar han med Ebba Lisberg Jensen och Tapio Salonen.En stor del av den forskning som produceras inom dagens samhällsvetenskaper är meningslöst nonsens. Åtminstone enligt tre samhällsforskare, Mats Alvesson, Yiannis Gabriel och Roland Paulsen, som skrivit en frän debattbok i ämnet: Return to Meaning. A Social Science with Something to Say.
A Gallup poll headlined on September 17th, «Seven in 10 Dissatisfied With Way U.S. Is Being Governed», and reported that 71% said they were «Dissatisfied» and that 28% said they were «Satisfied», with the U.S. Government. The question, as it had been posed, was «On the whole, would you say you are satisfied or dissatisfied with the way the nation is being governed?»

-by NoahBy now, we've all seen multiple clips of reporters and late night TV hosts going out and interviewing Trump supporters in the streets. It's easy. You just go up to some clown that's wearing a Trump hat, turn on the camera, ask your questions, and watch the crazy come pouring out. To be fair, though, (and I'm always fair), it doesn't seem to be just the most fervent Trump supporters.

Since the 1928 Red Line Agreement between British and French and American oil majors to divide the oil riches of the post-World War I Middle East, petroleum or more precisely, control of petroleum has constituted the thin-red-line of modern geopolitics. During the Soviet time Russian oil exports were largely aimed at maximizing dollar hard currency income in any possible market.

Today, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet with Donald Trump at the White House and push the U.S. to withdraw from the nuclear accord with Iran.

Last week, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) reminded Congress that in matters of war, they have the authority and the responsibility to speak for the American people.

Trump, who didn't write a single word of Art of the Deal, likes to portray himself as the world's greatest deal-maker and negotiator. Those who have been on the other end of the table from deal-making Trump, all have something in common: laughter at his preposterous claims. Trump's a loser who rants and raves, bullies and blusters but who, in the end, is notorious for making bad deals.

(ANTIMEDIA) — Iceland’s justice system has received praise in recent years for its successful prosecution of multiple bankers who helped bring on the 2008 financial crisis. Though some of those bankers have been released early from prison, the latest controversy in the country stems from an entirely different miscarriage of justice.

In an interview with Christiane Amanpour on Monday, President Rouhani discussed the possibilities that US President Donald Trump could come through on a campaign promise to shred the nuclear agreement negotiated under the Obama administration.
“Our position has been very clear and remains clear vis-a-vis nuclear weapons. We are against any type of weapons of mass destruction as well as nuclear weapons, and we believe that they must be destroyed around the world.”

As I predicted, the erasing of American history will not be limited to Confederate monuments. Last week a member of the board of trustees of the Dallas, Texas, school district recommended changing the name of James Madison High School. James Madison was the father of the US Constitution, considered by Identity Politics, the political ideology of the Democratic Party and the American liberal/progressive/left, to be a “racist document.”

I used to watch and follow the works of Abby Martin for a long time when she worked over at the Russia Today television news network... She constantly went out on a limb with some bitter truths about our sick world that other Jew spew media networks would not touch... Those shows also periodically went after the criminal Jewish network which probably put her under the gun of the news network owners and producers...
When it comes to the U.S. economy, the "con" part offers the best description of the current relationship between business, government and the preyed upon consumer. The way things work in early 21st century America is large businesses bribe politicians in a variety of ways at both the local and federal level, and the end result is laws that are designed to increase corporate profits at the expense of the wellbeing and freedom of the American public.

A large explosion has hit central Lugansk city, the capital of the Lugansk People’s Republic in Donbass.
The explosion has reportedly destroyed the Monument to the Defenders of the Lugansk People’s Republic as well as a military vehicle parked nearby. This has occurred as world leaders gather at the UN General Assembly to debate contemporary issues of peace, including the ongoing war of aggression on the Republics of Donbass.
Below is a pre-blast photo of the monument.
Google, Facebook and Twitter have openly waged war on speech that does not conform to their neo-liberal views.
Aside from accounts being deleted, frozen or punished, the liberal left controlled internet has made it a point to disallow any other social media services from entering into their “monopoly” internet.
GAB.ai, the free speech twitter rival, was served notice by its domain registrar that it has 5 days to transfer its domain or the domain will be seized.
More than anything else, the drawn-out demise of Rome’s 500-year-old Republic must be laid at the doorstep of the most corrosive influence in the affairs of humankind. It’s a mental poison that twists and warps even the best of men and women if they allow it to take root in their souls. I refer to power—the exercise of control over others. Simply the pursuit of it, whether one ultimately attains it or not, is itself an intoxicant.
