The Meanings of Michael Oakeshott's Conservatism
This collection of recent scholarship on the thought of Michael Oakeshott includes essays by both distinguished and established authors as well as a fresh crop of younger talent. Together, they address the meanings of Oakeshott's conservatism through the lenses of his ideas on religion, history, and tradition, and explore his relationships to philosophers ranging from Hume to Ryle, Cavell, and others. The collection assigns no single or final meaning to Oakeshott's conservatism, but finds in him a number of possibilities for thinking fruitfully about what conservatism might mean, when it is no longer considered as a doctrine, but as a habit or a turn of mind.

5 3 8 Five-Thirty-Eight
In this book, Joe Albanese observes that when the Electoral College was established in 1787, there were no daily newspapers, and it took weeks for important news to reach the public. Moreover, the nation had just obtained its independence after a brutal war. The author lays out the pros and cons of the Electoral College system, making the case that how we elect our president runs contrary to principles of an equal democratic government. He also answers questions such as: Does the Electoral College system pose a danger to democracy? Why has the concept of one person, one vote been overlooked? Why have previous attempts to abolish the Electoral College failed? History shows that for a nation to succeed and prosper, it must develop procedures for the peaceful and orderly transfer of political power from one generation to the next. Join the author as he considers how we can reform our electoral process and make every vote truly count.
