Language and Globalization: The History of Us All is a short book
combining my two interests, Linguistics and History. Linguistics
contains some intriguing hints about the entirety of the human
journey, hints which have been confirmed in the late twentieth and
early twenty-first century by genetics. How do History,
Linguistics, and Genetics connect? What do they tell us about the
fifty-thousand year human journey condensed into the contentious
word globalization? This short book hopes to open the door to the
answer, and hopes also to inspire some awe at both the grand cycles
of human development and reconnection, and the way spontaneous
order works to uplift us in spite of ourselves. Mark David
Ledbetter is a visiting professor of linguistics at Hosei
University in Tokyo; he has spent over thirty-five years teaching
in Japan. He has published a number of books in both English and
Japanese, including three volumes of America's Forgotten History.
He is presently working on the fourth volume of that series.
Continuation of Part One. Monroe to Lincoln, each president a
chapter. The struggle between Jeffersonianism and Hamiltonianism
continues, but slavery warps the debate. Westward expansion,
tariffs and free trade vs. government/business collusion. The Great
Awakening. John Quincy Adams. Marshall, Clay, and Lincoln. Jackson
and Van Buren. And finally, Puritans and Cavaliers dispute once
again their deep cultural divide in another great and terrible
civil war on a new continent. CONTACT:

Part one of a history of the American system from a
libertarian/constitutionalist point of view. Puritans and Cavaliers
fought the English Civil War; Puritans fled to Massachusetts,
Cavaliers to Virginia. They allied against the Mercantilism of
Britain to form a new system based on the Enlightenment philosophy
of Locke, Montesquieu etc. Parties formed around Jefferson
(Enlightenment, strict constitutional interpretation) and Hamilton
(Mercantilism, loose interpretation) that would frame America's
philosophical dispute until the collapse of Jeffersonianism at the
Democratic convention of 1896. Part One covers English roots, the
colonial period, the Revolution and Constitution, the first four
presidential administrations. CONTACT [email protected]
