The Worthy House (Charles Haywood)

A discussion of the tyranny under which we now live, combined with thoughts on what to do about it, primarily through the lens of analyzing the CDC's orders on evictions and masks, along with the proposed Emmett Till Antilynching Act. (The written version of this analysis can be found here.)

A detailed analysis of a successful Right authoritarian leader, the largely-forgotten António Salazar, who should not be forgotten.  And, of course, my own thoughts, in this case on corporatism as a political system, both in general and as possibly applied to a remade America.  (The written version of this review can be found here.)

In which I explain how the Left harmonizes simultaneous demands for both total liberty and total equality, and I also discuss the limitations of even equality of opportunity, as well as of liberty, in a decent post-liberal society.  (The written version of this review was first published August 4, 2018. Written versions are available here.)

A classic work of spiritual exploration, with thoughts on comparative theology. (The written version of this review was first published July 24, 2018. Written versions are available here.)

Of Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger, two leading public servants of the early Roman Empire, a society that had a competent ruling class which provided value, unlike ours. (The written version of this review can be found here.)
