A propos de cet article

Paperback. Parties, Ideologies, & Promises vs Outcomes is the second book in the EATMS Productions Civics series, a practical political survival guide for women trying to understand American parties, political ideology, campaign promises, authoritarian language, and the gap between what politics says and what politics does. Book 1 mapped the machinery of American government. This volume explains the parties, movements, slogans, and ideological systems operating inside that machinery, and why political language should always be tested against record, money, coalition, mechanism, enforcement, and outcome. Written by Ima Thorne and Luna Max, with an introduction by Esme Mees, this book examines political parties as power machines rather than families, ideology as a political tool, conservatism as restoration politics, liberalism and neoliberalism as the managed middle, progressivism as material politics, Christian nationalism as a gendered state project, and populism as real anger placed inside dangerous containers. It shows how women are used as voters, symbols, workers, moral witnesses, unpaid infrastructure, and targets, while being asked to confuse being named with being served. This is not a political theory textbook, campaign manual, or generic democracy guide. It is a field guide to political language in authoritarian America: family values, religious liberty, parental rights, fiscal responsibility, law and order, freedom, choice, restoration, moderation, protecting children, and supporting working families. The book explains how those phrases can sell policies that restrict women's autonomy, weaken public goods, narrow rights, redirect anger toward scapegoats, or protect donors and institutions from accountability. As part of the EATMS Productions catalog of survival guides, systems analysis, and social criticism, this volume gives readers a practical method for reading political promises before accepting the assignment attached to them. For readers interested in American politics, civics for adults, political ideology, political parties, women's rights, authoritarian America, Project 2025, Christian nationalism, populism, conservatism, liberalism, neoliberalism, progressivism, campaign promises, democracy, propaganda, political language, reproductive rights, family policy, labor, public policy, voting, courts, media, money in politics, and women's political education, this book offers a clear, blunt, women-centered guide. It does not ask readers to trust a party, candidate, movement, or ideology. It asks them to compare the language to the record. This item is printed on demand.

Synopsis

Parties, Ideologies, & Promises vs Outcomes is the second book in the EATMS Productions Civics series, a practical political survival guide for women trying to understand American parties, political ideology, campaign promises, authoritarian language, and the gap between what politics says and what politics does. Book 1 mapped the machinery of American government.

It is a field guide to political language in authoritarian America: family values, religious liberty, parental rights, fiscal responsibility, law and order, freedom, choice, restoration, moderation, protecting children, and supporting working families. The book explains how those phrases can sell policies that restrict women’s autonomy, weaken public goods, narrow rights, redirect anger toward scapegoats, or protect donors and institutions from accountability.
