英国政治时事热点实时喜剧，务必看好片名，是“猴戏”，片名就是任性。故事分三条主线：英国脱欧公投、普京贴身办公室和川普竞选团队。这部剧为实时制作播出形式，不同于其他任何预写剧本的剧集，本剧剧情全部架于现实，为了保证紧贴时事热点，几乎所有的剧本编写和拍摄都是在播出当天进行的，当天完成剧本和拍摄并播出，随着时事发展写剧本，最新一集里已经演到了公投结果和卡梅伦辞职，英国人为了嘲讽竟然有了这么高的效率。

该剧描述一位女国务卿的工作和生活故事——她必须在国际危机、办公室政治和复杂的家庭生活之间寻找平衡点。据称这位女国务卿的原型就是希拉里-克林顿，但CBS不肯承认。
精明干练、意志坚定、智慧超群的Elizabeth McCord（Tea Leoni）刚刚被任命为美国国务卿，她将在国际外交事务、办公室政治和各种「徊避程序」之间寻找平衡点。在解决国家大事的同时，她还面临很多个人烦恼——既来自白宫，也来自家中。Elizabeth过去是一位大学教授，后来又当过中情局分析师，但因为道德伦理方面的原因辞了职。前任国务卿离奇死亡，总统下令让她重返白宫，她因此回到了公众的视线中。总统尊重她没有明显政治倾向性的态度，也赏识她对中东事务的透彻认识、她能流畅说多国语言的能力及她的创造性思维。事实上……从来没有什么东西能约束她的思维。
McCord的团队包括其办公室主任、幕僚长Nadine Tolliver（艾美奖得主Bebe Neuwirth）、演讲稿撰写人Matt Mahoney（Geoffrey Arend）、媒体联络官Daisy Grant（Patina Miller）和长相迷人的助理Blake Moran（Erich Bergen）。Moran对Elizabeth极为忠诚，事实上在Elizabeth的团队中，他是唯一由Elizabeth亲自雇用的。
在争论完第三世界国家的问题、巧妙地处理好与外国政要的关系后，她拖着疲惫的身体回到温暖的家中，一直默默支持她的丈夫Henry（Tim Daly）和两个聪明伶俐的孩子（Katherine Herzer和Evan Roe）正等着她一起吃饭。对她而言，「政治」和「危机」在家中有着完全不同的含义。Henry是一位研究中世纪宗教历史的教授，对工作非常痴迷，他可以连续讲两个小时「托马斯-阿奎那」的理论并且一句话都不会重复。儿子Adam正处在青春期，是一个初露头角的无政府主义者。女儿Caroline和母亲一样美丽外向，无论在哪里都受人欢迎。

您对美国联邦最高法院的认识，是不是还停留在马伯里诉麦迪逊案、米兰达诉亚利桑那州案、纽约时报诉沙利文案发生的那些时期？您了解现任九位大法官的背景、经历、个性与司法立场吗？在这个 Twitter、Facebook与Myspace盛行的年代，九位大法官如何思考、办案？他们使用维基百科吗？他们还阅读法学期刊吗？他们有自己的律政偶像吗？他们为何在审判中扮演历史学家角色？他们如何处理判决书中的“脏话”？他们退休之后，如何发挥余热？这本书尝试在回答上述问题的同时，告诉您一个最新、最In的联邦最高法院。
2007年至2010年，联邦最高法院大法官们做出了一系列判决。他们加大了对在校学生言论自由的限制，但又宣布校方对学生的“光身搜查”违法；他们认为处决奸淫幼童者违宪，却又确认了注射死刑的合宪性；他们要求民选法官必须在一方当事人为本人捐助者的案件中回避，又放开了企业、工会对政治选举的资金介入；他们要求CSI专家必须出庭作证，还命令不雅词汇退出电视节目。有人说他们与时俱进，顺应时势；有人骂他们祸国殃民，开历史倒车。真相到底如何？这些判决背后，到底有什么样的力量博弈与法理智慧？这本由中国最高法院法官所著的书将为您揭开谜底。

本书对国际政治的基础话题和基本概念进行了精练、透彻的阐释，并因此得到学术界普遍认可。它不偏不倚地介绍了国际关系的主要理论范式--包括自由主义和现实主义，以及马克思主义、女性主义和建构主义。它为学生在个人、国家和国际体系三个层次上理解世界政治事务提供了全面的分析工具。为了反映世界政治中最近的发展和辩论，第三版在前两版的基础上进行了更新，对政府间国际组织（如联合国）和非政府组织（包括恐怖组织与和平组织）进行了深入的探讨。

In an unparalleled collaboration, two leading global thinkers in technology and foreign affairs give us their widely anticipated, transformational vision of the future: a world where everyone is connected--a world full of challenges and benefits that are ours to meet and harness.
Eric Schmidt is one of Silicon Valley's great leaders, having taken Google from a small start-up to one of the world's most influential companies. Jared Cohen is the director of Google Ideas and a former adviser to both secretaries of state Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton; he was instrumental in helping shape the way the U.S. government thinks about technology. Schmidt and Cohen have traveled the world--from the hot spots of the Middle East and Africa to the more stable European and Asian nations--meeting with world leaders, entrepreneurs, and activists to see and hear firsthand about the challenges they face. With the authors' combined knowledge and on-the-ground experiences, they are uniquely positioned to take on some of the toughest questions about our future: Who will be more powerful in the future, the citizen or the state? Will technology make terrorism easier or harder to carry out? What is the relationship between privacy and security, and how much will we have to give up to be part of the new digital age? How will war, diplomacy, and revolution change when everyone is connected, and how can we tip the balance in a beneficial way? When broken societies are rebuilt, what will they be able to do with technology?
In this groundbreaking book, Schmidt and Cohen combine observations about the physical world with their insights into our digital future to outline in great detail and scope all the promise and peril awaiting us in the coming decades. At once pragmatic and inspirational--and wholly fascinating--this is a forward-thinking account of where our world is headed and what this means for people, states, nations, and businesses.

By integrating democratic government with cutting-edge American innovation, the lieutenant governor of California charts a bright future for open-source America

Citizenville is the story of how ordinary citizens can use new digital tools to dissolve political gridlock and transform American democracy. As social networking and smart phones have changed the way we communicate with one another, these technologies are also changing our relationship with government.
In a world where people can do anything at the touch of a button—shop, communicate, do research, publish a blog, transfer money—government cannot keep functioning in a twentieth-century mind-set. Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom explores the many ways in which technology can transform government and empower citizens: Opening up vast troves of government data, then letting people create apps to use them wisely. Harnessing the popularity of online games to establish a kind of “Angry Birds for Democracy.” Inventing new feedback loops so people can take active part in every facet of governing.
Drawing on wide-ranging interviews with thinkers and politicians, Citizenville is the first book by Lieutenant Governor Newsom. He broke new ground as the mayor of San Francisco, one of the most high-tech, experimental, and progressive municipalities in the nation. But when Newsom’s tenure as mayor began, he found that San Francisco was behind the likes of Estonia and South Korea in terms of digital governance. Newsom’s quest to modernize one of America’s most modern cities—and the amazing results he achieves—form the backbone of this far-reaching book.
Lieutenant Governor Newsom explains how the problems of twenty-first-century America are too big and too expensive for the government simply to buy solutions. Instead, we must innovate our way out. Just as the post office and the highway system provide public infrastructure to channel both personal and private enterprise—a platform upon which citizens can grow—so too could a modern digital government house the needs, concerns, information, and collaboration of an enlightened digital citizenry.
Citizenville shows that the only way Americans can secure their future is by reinventing their relationship to government, just as they have countless times before.

A nine part series depicting the varying fortunes of four friends - Nicky, Geordie, Mary and Tosker - from the optimistic times of 1964 to the uncertainties of 1995. Taking nine pivotal years (1964, 1966, 1967, 1970, 1974, 1979, 1984, 1987, 1995) the personal lives of the characters become intertwined with the political struggles of their home town of Newcastle, and the capital, London.

In this prize-winning book, one of the most prominent political theorists of our time makes a major statement about what democracy is and why it is important. Robert Dahl examines the most basic assumptions of democratic theory, tests them against the questions raised by its critics, and recasts the theory of democracy into a new and coherent whole. He concludes by discussing the directions in which democracy must move if advanced democratic states are to exist in the future.
“When Robert Dahl speaks about democracy, everyone should listen. With Democracy and Its Critics Dahl has produced a work destined to become another classic.”—Lucian W. Pye, American Political Science Review
“In this magisterial work [Dahl]… describe[s] what democracy means…; why our own democracy is still deeply flawed; and how we could reform it…. A work of extraordinary intelligence and, what is even rarer, a work of extraordinary wisdom.”—Robert N. Bellah, New York Times Book Review

《美国草根政治日记》是一位中国留学生工作之后参与美国政治活动的实录，主要分为作者作为自由党人参与社区政治和参加民主党助选阵营的经历。该书采用日记体形式，历时一年半之久，并配有大量彩色图片，生动有趣，资料详实。
该书由《近距离看美国三部曲》、《带本书去巴黎》、《一路走一路读》作者林达先生作序推荐。林达先生这样说：“很少有大陆来美的第一代移民，深入美国社会“草根”，去亲自“做”美国政治。谈的人多，做的人少。这本书，是我们看到的第一本，它是第一手的资料，有着非常详尽的记录和生动描述。”
类似的看法在美国问题专家薛涌先生那里也可以看到：“美国的政治过程，大概从这本书开始，才有了中文纪录的第一手原始材料。作者以从中国带来的关于民主政治的理念，和美国基层选民有不少交锋，碰撞出不少火花。其文化涵意甚为独特，不是其他读物能够替代的。”
所以，《美国草根政治日记》属于一本介绍美国的开创性著作，具有多重意义，它不仅是见闻录，是原始史料，还是一本关于民主实践的操作手册。
