The year 2020 was a tumultuous time in American politics. It brought a global pandemic, protests for racial justice, and a razor-thin presidential election outcome. It culminated in an attack on the US Capitol that attempted to deny Joe Biden's victory. The Bitter End explores the long-term trends and short-term shocks that shaped this dramatic year and what these changes could mean for the future. Ultimately, instead of the country coming together to face national challenges—the pandemic, George Floyd's murder, and the Capitol riot—the challenges only reinforced divisions.

McIlwain shows in this book, the story of racial justice movement organizing online is much longer and varied than most people know.

Angela Merkel hat die Republik verändert wie kein Kanzler vor ihr. Machtwille und Bindungslosigkeit machten sie den Westpolitikern überlegen. Das Herrschaftswissen der gescheiterten DDR und mächtige Gönner in der West-CDU lieferten ihr den Spielraum für eine Kehrtwende in der gesamtdeutschen Politik. Merkel verschob die politische Mitte nach links und schleifte CDU-Bastionen. Die Kanzlerin der Einheit sprach das Siegersyndrom der Deutschen an: Überall die Ersten und Besten sein, gekoppelt an die Unfähigkeit, mit der Rolle der Deutschen als Täter umzugehen.

Die Grenzöffnung für Flüchtlinge im Herbst 2015 hat das Land gespalten - die einen preisen Angela Merkels moralische Haltung, die andern geißeln die Preisgabe von Souveränität. Doch was als planvolles Handeln erscheint, ist in Wahrheit eine Politik des Durchwurstelns, des Taktierens und Lavierens, befeuert von hehren Idealen und Opportunismus. Robin Alexander zeigt, dass die politischen Akteure Getriebene sind, zerrieben zwischen selbst auferlegten Zwängen und den sich überschlagenden Ereignissen.

The McCarthy-era witch hunts marked the culmination of an anticommunist crusade launched after the First World War. With Bolshevism triumphant in Russia and public discontent shaking the United States, conservatives at every level of government and business created a network dedicated to sweeping away the "spider web" of radicalism they saw threatening the nation. In this groundbreaking study, Nick Fischer shines a light on right-wing activities of the time, showing that the term "spider web" far more accurately described the anticommunist movement.

In The Sexual State, Jennifer Roback Morse shows that the Sexual Revolution did not just “happen” like a force of nature.
