What is a Golden Age?   This week, join Cyrus Palizban and Rainer Franz, the Business Development Director at Lightning, as we discuss Rainer's lecture series on the Golden Ages, discussing the rise and fall of great civilizations like Greece, Persia, and Rome. We explore the concept of a 'Golden Age,' how the phases of civilizations are compared to seasonal cycles, and the difference between Oswald Spengler's deterministic views and Arnold Toynbee's focus on societal rigidity. We touch upon the conspicuous parallels between the Greco-Roman civilization and the present state of the West. Delving into historical parallels, the role of philosophy, and the influence of past writings on contemporary society, we wonder what can be done to ensure a continued future for the West.    00:00 Introduction: The Rise and Fall of Ancient Empires 00:19 Guest Introduction: Meet Rainer Franz 01:06 Defining the Golden Ages 01:13 The Influence of Oswald Spengler 03:03 Rainer's Interest in Historical Parallels 04:13 Learning from History: Practical Applications 05:22 The Power of Reading and Imagination 08:29 What Makes a Society? 10:17 Oswald Spengler's Philosophy and the Ur Symbol 12:34 The Lifecycle of Civilizations 13:22 Greek and Roman Civilizations: A Comparative Analysis 23:14 The Roman Legacy and Its Modern Relevance 24:04 The Preservation of Ancient Wisdom 24:46 Western Fascination with Greece and Rome 25:15 The Role of Time in Different Civilizations 27:07 The Impact of Rome on Civilization 29:14 Spengler's Theory on the Life Cycle of Civilizations 30:16 Comparing Spengler and Toynbee's Views 33:17 The Transition from Money Politics to Power Politics 39:03 Modern Parallels to Ancient Civilizations 43:11 The Potential for a New Beginning 44:45 Join the Conversation If you're craving a deeper exploration of these topics, consider joining Rainer's lecture series through the link in the description.   https://smartlink2.metricool.com/public/smartlink/lightning-945

Have you ever questioned the real impact of school vouchers on education? Ever felt alarmed by controversial terms like CRT and "wokeism" in public school curriculums? You're not alone. Join us, Byron Ricks and Josh Warmbrodt alongside our esteemed guest, Dr. Good, as we unmask the intricate issues surrounding school vouchers, white supremacy influence, and big money politics. We wade through a sea of emotions, biases and political agendas to understand the truth. We also give voice to the concerns of parents of color who seek better educational alternatives for their children.We know that you're looking for more than just an insight. You want options, solutions, and alternatives. And we've got them. We navigate the labyrinth of charter schools, magnet schools, and homeschooling co-ops, underlining the fact that there's a world of choice out there, beyond the voucher system. Hear us share our personal experiences about the sacrifices we had to make to ensure our children receive the education they deserve and find answers to your concerns about public school curriculums.Ever wondered how we ended up here? We take you back to the 1980s and bring you to 2020, tracing the financial and cultural shifts that have influenced today's education scenario. We scrutinize the changes in the value of the dollar, the surge of technology, and their combined effect on today's generation. We dissect the education system for its perceived shortcomings - lack of accountability, teaching of revisionist history, limited curriculum diversity. This discussion is a wake-up call: our education system should focus on nurturing successful adults, not just creating workers. Listen in as we challenge the status quo and push for an education system that prepares our children for the real world.Support the show Keep in touch.Email: Brm2@fatherfactorpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram Like us on Facebookhttps://www.amazon.com/Searching-Dad-Effects-Fatherless-Overcome/dp/1934812129

Money politics, or vote-buying in elections in Indonesia is still plural. The reason is because candidates for Parliament, local candidates, or anyone who advances in the electoral process, more often take shortcuts in seizing support, through voter vote buying. - Politik uang, atau pembelian suara pemilih dalam Pemilu di Indonesia masih jamak terjadi. Penyebabnya adalah karena para calon anggota DPR, calon kepala daerah, atau siapapun yang maju dalam proses elektoral, lebih sering mengambil jalan pintas dalam merebut dukungan, melalui pembelian suara pemilih.

To what extent have abortion politics been the driver of campaign finance fights in the courts? How much of a force has anti-abortion lawyer Jim Bopp been in the campaign finance cases?

On Season 4, Episode 8 of the ELB Podcast, we speak with law professor and historian Mary Ziegler, author of the new book, Dollars for Life: The Anti-Abortion Movement and the Fall of the Republican Establishment.

In 1998, the Belitung, a ninth-century western Indian Ocean–style vessel, was discovered in Indonesian waters. Onboard was a full cargo load, likely intended for the Middle Eastern market, of over 60,000 Chinese Tang-dynasty ceramics, gold, and other precious objects. It is one of the most significant shipwreck discoveries of recent times, revealing the global scale of ancient commercial endeavors and the centrality of the ocean within the Silk Road story. But this shipwreck also has a modern tale to tell, of how nation-states appropriate the remnants of the past for their own purposes, and of the international debates about who owns—and is responsible for—shared heritage. The commercial salvage of objects from the Belitung, and their subsequent sale to Singapore, contravened the principles of the 2001 UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage and prompted international condemnation. The resulting controversy continues to reverberate in academic and curatorial circles. Major museums refused to host international traveling exhibitions of the collection, and some archaeologists announced they would rather see the objects thrown back in the sea than ever go on display. Shipwrecks are anchored in the public imagination, their stories of treasure and tragedy told in museums, cinema, and song. At the same time, they are sites of scholarly inquiry, a means by which maritime archaeologists interrogate the past through its material remains. Every shipwreck is an accidental time capsule, replete with the sunken stories of those on board, of the personal and commercial objects that went down with the vessel, and of an unfinished journey. In this moving and thought-provoking reflection of underwater cultural heritage management, Natali Pearson reveals valuable new information about the Belitung salvage, obtained firsthand from the salvagers, and the intricacies in the many conflicts and relationships that developed. In tracing the Belitung's lives and afterlives, Belitung: The Afterlives of a Shipwreck (U Hawaii Press, 2022) shifts our thinking about shipwrecks beyond popular tropes of romance, pirates, and treasure, and toward an understanding of how the relationships between sites, objects, and people shape the stories we tell of the past in the present.

Major museums refused to host international traveling exhibitions of the collection, and some archaeologists announced they would rather see the objects thrown back in the sea than ever go on display. Shipwrecks are anchored in the public imagination, their stories of treasure and tragedy told in museums, cinema, and song. At the same time, they are sites of scholarly inquiry, a means by which maritime archaeologists interrogate the past through its material remains. Every shipwreck is an accidental time capsule, replete with the sunken stories of those on board, of the personal and commercial objects that went down with the vessel, and of an unfinished journey. In this moving and thought-provoking reflection of underwater cultural heritage management, Natali Pearson reveals valuable new information about the Belitung salvage, obtained firsthand from the salvagers, and the intricacies in the many conflicts and relationships that developed. In tracing the Belitung's lives and afterlives, Belitung: The Afterlives of a Shipwreck (U Hawaii Press, 2022) shifts our thinking about shipwrecks beyond popular tropes of romance, pirates, and treasure, and toward an understanding of how the relationships between sites, objects, and people shape the stories we tell of the past in the present.

Tiffany Muller returned to Kansas, where she made history in 2004 by becoming the first openly LGBTQ public official in Kansas, to campaign on behalf of Democrats. Muller — now president of End Citizens United, an organization that wants to get big money out of politics — says Republican candidates Kris Kobach and Derek Schmidt pose a fundamental threat to Democracy in the state.

It's 141 days until the 2023 general elections. The polity is obviously getting super- heated.In light of this, the Independent National Electoral Commission has set a financial limit for campaigns for all political parties. In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we look at how this move by INEC will make a difference in the 2023 general elections.

To Remain Myself: The History of Onghokham (ASAA Southeast Asia Publications Series / NUS Press, 2022) is a particularly vivid biography of a remarkable individual, an Indonesian historian and public intellectual who was both a public figure and a multi-minority member, being Dutch educated, Indonesian Chinese, gay, alcoholic, irreligious and hedonist, in a conservative society. This is the first Indonesian biography where the interior life is closely recorded: the fears, doubts, confusions; the issues of sexuality, the mental breakdown, the jailing, the later success, joys and celebrity, as a historian, public intellectual and famous cook. This biography breaks out of the Indonesian Chinese category. It is primarily an Indonesian story. In its early chapters this biography reveals much about the ‘sugar king' Chinese aristocracy of Indonesia, from the inside. In its later chapters this book shows much about the development of Indonesians writing their own post-colonial history, and the intellectual influences on this writing. Onghokham was a senior public intellectual with over 300 writings over 50 years, containing original insights into many varied Indonesian topics, including colonial history and its effects on modern politics and society; the Indonesian Chinese; ‘outsiders' -- marginal people; the jago or brigand as people's champion; sexuality in Indonesia past and present; food; the Oedipus complex; painting; traditional Javanese beliefs from the palace to the peasant.

Wow. What an episode this turned out to be. Fracking, Hargreaves Lansdown, and Damien Talks Money. Only on this week's PlayingFTSE Podcast! Not much has happened this week. We've got a new Prime Minister, though. With Liz Truss taking charge, friend of the show Damien from Damien Talks Money is here to help us make sense of it all. We're starting off with energy. The new Prime Minister has announced plans to limit the average energy bill to £2,500 per year. Steve W's heard that this is good for inflation – why? After that, it's on to the straightforward question of fracking. Damien wants to know what our regulars think of fracking. Steve D lives on a fracking site, Steve W doesn't, and Paul isn't sure. So who thinks what about getting gas out of the ground? Next, we're on to the real reason that Damien's here. He wants to talk about awful investments that we've made in the past. Steve W once owned shares in a REIT – what went wrong there? Paul owns shares in a Russian miner – why? And Steve D invested in some businesses that went – which? Mostly, though, what's Damien been unwisely putting his money into? We finish with the news. Paul's had a special offer from Hargreaves Lansdown. Steve W hasn't, so he's taking his ball somewhere else. And Steve D has the latest news on Freetrade's seemingly-annual dilution of investors. Only on this week's PlayingFTSE!

When Jakob Feinig speaks of moral economies, he's talking about we, the people – the currency users – and how we relate to the institutions that issue money, as well as our monetary knowledge and its ability to inform direct action. Needless to say, Modern Monetary Theory is an essential component of this. This week he and Steve discuss both moral economies and “monetary silencing,” a concept that gives shape to the frustration MMTers experience on a daily basis. Feinig has said he derived the term “silencing” from Paolo Freire, the Brazilian educator and philosopher who wrote about the dehumanizing nature of political silencing, denying people the right to participate in their own history. “There are moral economies that enable people to connect their lives and their needs to monetary design. And there is another process, and that's what I call monetary silencing, that disconnects people, that makes it seem like, oh, those are forces that are beyond your reach. This is something you should not be thinking about ... You have to try to work as hard as you can as an individual. And if you don't make it, or if you don't have enough for a decent life, that is your own fault. But please do not think about where it comes from.” Feinig gives historical examples of both moral economies and monetary silencing – though rather fewer of the former than the latter in recent times. During the US Civil War, the federal government issued the greenback, a brand new currency. Not only did it enable them to win the war, it also made visible the fact that the government has the power to spend money into existence. (Haven't we said the same about Covid stimulus checks?) The gold standard and bitcoin are among the notable monetary silencers, but some may be surprised to find FDR in this category. Feinig makes the case that he was one of the most successful. We cannot disagree. Jakob Feinig is a historical sociologist who writes about the connection between justice, democracy, and monetary design. He teaches at the State University of New York (Binghamton). His book, Moral Economies of Money: Politics and the Monetary Constitution of Society, will be published in October, 2022. @FeinigJakob on Twitter

In The Candidate's Dilemma: Anticorruptionism and Money Politics in Indonesian Election Campaigns (Cornell UP, 2022), Elisabeth Kramer tells the story of how three political candidates in Indonesia made decisions to resist, engage in, or otherwise incorporate money politics into their electioneering strategies over the course of their campaigns. As they campaign, candidates encounter pressure from the institutional rules that guide elections, political parties, and voters, and must also negotiate complex social relationships to remain competitive. For anticorruption candidates, this context presents additional challenges for building and maintaining their identities. Some of these candidates establish their campaign parameters early and are able to stay their course. For others, the campaign trail results in an avalanche of compromises, each one eating away at their sense of what constitutes "moral" and "acceptable" behavior. The Candidate's Dilemma delves into the lived experiences of candidates to offer a nuanced study of how the political and personal intersect when it comes to money politics, anticorruptionism, and electoral campaigning in Indonesia.

The boys talk about all the things you literally aren't supposed to talk about in America: money, politics, and religion. We did this by complete accident and only realized it after recording. While religion may have a place in society, there are places it is best kept away from. If you look forward to going to hell with us, let us know at our Instagram or at our website.

Dr Elisabeth Kramer - Political candidates and anti-corruptionism Indonesia has announced it will conduct its next general elections on 14 February 2024, to select a new president and vice president, and members of the national, provincial and district legislatures. This will be the largest electoral event in Indonesia's history, with more candidates campaigning at the same time than ever before. In past elections, fierce electoral competition has seen many candidates resort to vote buying (or "money-politics") to give them an edge in their campaigns. But a small number of candidates make the choice to take a risk and run against the status quo on a platform of "anticorruptionism". Why is money politics so prevalent in Indonesian election campaigns? Why would a candidate choose to run on an anti-corruption platform, and do they have a chance of winning if they do? What does it all mean for the future of Indonesia's democracy? In Talking Indonesia this week, Dr Jemma Purdey explores these questions and more with Dr Elisabeth Kramer, deputy director of the Sydney Southeast Asia Centre (SSEAC), Sydney University and author of The Candidates Dilemma: AntiCorruptionism and Money Politics in Indonesian Electoral Campaigns. In 2022, the Talking Indonesia podcast is co-hosted by Dr Jemma Purdey from Monash University, Dr Dave McRae from the University of Melbourne, Dr Jacqui Baker from Murdoch University, and Tito Ambyo from RMIT.

In this episode, I'll be covering the link between politics and economics by examining the influence that money has on political life. As immigrants, I believe it's important to know this relationship to better understand how our lives in the U.S. are constantly shaped by it. Whether we like it or not as immigrants we are affected by public policy. Politicians create these policies that impact our lives. Politicians spend a lot of time fundraising for their campaigns. Most of this time involves donor outreach.

In this podcast, Allen Hicken of the University of Michigan tells Duncan McCargo all about an exciting comparative exploration of money and machine politics in Southeast Asia. This large Australian-funded project has involved extensive fieldwork over several years in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines, looking at everything from village-level vote-buying, to massive government pork-barrel schemes like Malaysia's 1MBD. Their forthcoming co-authored monograph will offer new insights into how money fuels Southeast Asia's politics.
