Agents of Empire: English Imperial Governance and the Making of American Political Institutions
Ctrl-Alt-Del: GamerGate as a precursor to the rise of the alt-right
Videogames and the gaming industry in the 21st-century generate more employment and revenue than either the professional music industry or the Hollywood film industry, making videogames both highly lucrative and extremely influential on a cultural level. When we consider the significance of cultural artifacts—like videogames, or television, films, or books—on the development of cultural mores and our understanding of society, leadership, and foll…
From Rome to Tyre to London: Shakespeare’s Pericles , leadership, anti-absolutism, and English exceptionalism

Through the depiction of the production and deterioration of royal charisma, Shakespeare p…
