During World War II, the United States helped vanquish the Axis powers by converting its enormous economic capacities into military might. Producing nearly two-thirds of all the munitions used by Allied forces, American industry became what President Franklin D. Roosevelt called "the arsenal of democracy." Crucial in this effort were business leaders. Some of these captains of industry went to Washington to coordinate the mobilization, while others led their companies to churn out weapons. In this way, the private sector won the war—or so the story goes. Based on new research in business and military archives, Destructive Creation shows that the enormous mobilization effort relied not only on the capacities of private companies but also on massive public investment and robust government regulation. This public-private partnership involved plenty of government-business cooperation, but it also generated antagonism in the American business community that had lasting repercussions for American politics. Many business leaders, still engaged in political battles against the New Deal, regarded the wartime government as an overreaching regulator and a threatening rival. In response, they mounted an aggressive campaign that touted the achievements of for-profit firms while dismissing the value of public-sector contributions. This probusiness story about mobilization was a political success, not just during the war, but afterward, as it shaped reconversion policy and the transformation of the American military-industrial complex. Offering a groundbreaking account of the inner workings of the "arsenal of democracy," Destructive Creation also suggests how the struggle to define its heroes and villains has continued to shape economic and political development to the present day.

Wealth owners are responsible for more than just assets The Destructive Power of Family Wealth offers thoughtful, holistic planning to ensure that your wealth remains a positive force for your family. While today's families have become global and the world has become smaller and more mobile, we have not yet become immune to the problems wealth poses to the family unit.

More than a simple financial planning guide, this book also delves into the psychology of wealth, and the effect it has on different family members; wealth destroys families every day, and smart management means maintaining the health of the family as much as it means maintaining and expanding wealth.

Wealth owners have a responsibility to their families and to themselves, and this book provides the critical guidance you need to get it right, whether you are part of a wealth-owning family or are an advisor to wealth-owning families. Learn how careful planning can prevent family strife Protect assets from risks ranging from divorce to political upheaval Explore the many tools that facilitate secure wealth management Discover how changing global regulations affect wealth Understand how private banks and other advisors work Uncover challenges faced by the wealth management industry Find out how to work with advisors and to manage costs while ensuring efficient and effective outcomes Families at all levels of wealth are vulnerable to shifting economic climates, evolving regulatory issues, asset threats and more. Any amount of wealth is enough to shatter a family, but deeply intentional planning based on thoughtful consideration is the key to keeping destructive forces at bay. The Destructive Power of Family Wealth provides expert guidance and a fresh perspective to help you maintain both family and wealth. For those in the wealth management industry and for other advisors to wealth-owning families, The Destructive Power of Family Wealth contains insight on the needs of today's wealth-owning families, ways in which the tools of wealth planning address those needs and guidance on what it takes to be a successful, trusted family advisor.

Boomers Families written by Margaret Devlin and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021-07-08 with categories.
The Baby Boomers grew up to be a baffling mix of idealism, creativity, selfishness, destruction and other contradictions. They overturned morality, multiplied social pathologies, and attacked Western civilization. Yet the Boomers were raised by "The Greatest Generation," the generation that saw America through the Second World War, fighting and dying to rescue that civilization. What happened? Margaret Devlin, a Boomer, born in the 1950s, uses her own life to show us what happened - and how and why. She introduces us to her high-achieving Catholic family and, from her journals and other primary sources, she recounts the story of developing neuroses, as corruption from within and without set in motion destructive forces. Devlin's adventurous life is the main plot, as restless quests usher her into many experiences with fellow leftist Boomers around the globe, until events lead her to consider for the first time conservative ideas. To her amazement, they make sense. The family's and friends' stories are also an introduction to a deeper inquiry into parallel developments in the society, into ideas and their consequences, into how social engineering set to work on the Boomers, beginning with the child rearing that formed the adults they became. Devlin discloses the hidden engines that drove the corrupting and destabilizing of a generation. She exposes people behind social engineering, the hidden planners who set out to surreptitiously plant secularizing and leftist ideas, manipulate and unhinge minds, capitalize on human frailties, and guide a whole people to an end that they - not the individuals involved - determined. Boomers' Families seeks to wrest some good from the Boomers' story by using it to show how great is the power of unseen manipulators. But while it exposes mechanisms that the "invisible elite" use to control the unaware, it also shows that the human soul, with God's help, can uncover and resist this manipulation in order to live as a free, emotionally mature human being, following God's way of love and truth and not that of an arrogant, deceptive and error-ridden elite. Knowledge is power, and recognizing social engineering is the key to withstanding it.

When Roots of Radicalism first appeared. Nathan Glazer noted "this is a major work on the relationship between radical politics and psychological development." He went on to predict "no one will be able to write about the left and radicalism without taking it into account." Now finally available in a paperback edition, with a new introduction, the reader can evaluate just how prescient the authors are in their review of the student radical movement. Replete with interviews of radical activists, their provocative book paints a disturbing picture. The book raises critical questions about much previous social science research and ultimately about the reason an entire generation of Americans was so infatuated with the radical mystique. Robert A. Nisbet called the book "an extraordinarily skilled fusion of historical and psychological approaches to one of the most explosive decades in American social history." Robert E. Lane added "it will be prudent to read Rothman and Lichter along with our well worn copies of Keniston and Fromm." Writing in Political Psychology, Dan E. Thomas argued "the [book] is arguably the most important and definitely the most provocative book in the field of personality and politics to have appeared in the past several years." Recently, in Forbes. Peter Brimelow referred to Roots of Radicalism as "Rothman's main achievement as a political scientist...his definitive study of the 1960s New Left." In the new introduction, the authors review the initial reception of Roots of Radicalism and its subsequent treatment. They also review the major literature on the causes, course, and consequences of the student movement of the 1960s which has appeared since the publication of the book. Finally, they update their own analysis.
