The People’s Choice is a landmark psychological and statistical study of American voters during the 1940 and 1944 presidential elections, originally published in 1948. It constituted the first systematic effort to trace voters’ behavior across the duration of a presidential campaign and to follow up on this data years later. $30.00 / £25.00 paper 978-0-231-19795-3
Martin Crowley argues that a new conception of agency as both distributed and decisive is necessary in the Anthropocene. A major intervention into ongoing debates in posthumanism, political ecology, and political theory, Accidental Agents reshapes our understanding of political agency in and for a more-than-human world.

How to Overcome Toxic Polarization
Beholding the Pain of Humanity Foreword by Jake Chapman
The social psychologist Peter T. Coleman explores how conflict resolution and complexity science provide guidance for dealing with seemingly intractable political differences. The Way Out is a vital and timely guide to breaking free from the cycle of mutual contempt in order to better our lives, relationships, and country.
Through a critical exploration of violence and the sacred, Ecce Humanitas recasts the fall of liberal humanism. Brad Evans offers a rich analysis of the changing nature of sacrificial violence, from its theological origins to the exhaustion of the victim in the contemporary world.
