Structural racism in the built environment: Segregation and the overconcentration of alcohol outlets
Laura Kalman. Right Star Rising: A New Politics, 1974-1980
The decade of the 1970s has been relatively neglected by scholars, a historical interlude overshadowed by both the leftist tumult of the 1960s and the rightward turn of the 1980s. Yet, as this illuminating political history of the years from 1974 through 1980 shows, the pivot from leftward to rightward movement was not without its own inherent significance, complexity, drama, and interest. Laura Kalman provides a political history of the transiti…

The African Slave Trade to Asia and the Indian Ocean Islands
This chapter describes the African slave trade to Asia across the Sahara Desert. The only criteria for the Muslim was that the slave be pagan, and since African traditional religions were unacceptable, sub-Saharan Africa became the most important source of slaves for the Muslim merchants who established elaborate commercial networks to transport them out of Africa across the Sahara, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. The Red Sea slave trade was ir…
Transforming America: Politics and Culture During the Reagan Years
More: The Politics of Economic Growth in Postwar America
James Carville famously reminded Bill Clinton throughout 1992 that “rit’s the economy, stupid.” Yet, for the last forty years, historians of modern America have ignored the economy to focus on cultural, social, and political themes, from the birth of modern feminism to the fall of the Berlin Wall. Now a scholar has stepped forward to place the economy back in its rightful place, at the center of his historical narrative. In More, Robert M. Collin…
The Originality Trap: Richard Hofstadter on Populism
Richard Hofstadter was among the preeminent historians of his generation, one of that small band who function triumphantly as both academics and intellectuals. His work was characterized by breathtaking conceptual innovations and a luminous prose style; his former students Stanley Elkins and Eric McKitrick have written perceptively of his genius for making all look so easy and exhibiting things as though they ought to have looked that way all alo…

Positive Business Responses to the New Deal: The Roots of the Committee for Economic Development, 1933–1942
The bitter opposition of businessmen to the New Deal in its early stages is well known. Not so well known, however, are the efforts of a few business leaders to maintain constructive communication with the President and his advisers. Professor Collins traces these efforts, from the early stages during which both groups labored in mutual distrust, through the remarkable transformation in which such strong business personalities as Beardsley Ruml, …

Early British Administration in the Southern Sudan
During the first decade of the Anglo-Egyptian occupation of the Sudan, the newly formed Condominium Government had slowly established its rule in the Southern Sudan. A way to the south was first cleared through the sudd-choked channels of the Bahr al-Jabal and the Bahr al- Gh azāl Rivers, and administrators and troops soon followed to secure the control of the Upper Nile Valley for Britain and Egypt against the pretensions of other European power…
