“Even as early as 1863 Hyde Clarke pointed out that ‘things and institutions, common in Europe [with the Ottoman Empire] are daily marked out for censure against the Turks and represented as in opposition to European standards‘” I like this quotes because i feel that it‘s applicable to modern politics. Western media and politicians criticize non-western countries as if the same things don‘t go on here. #history #politics

Can‘t see me making it out of this one without adding books to the TBR ! It looks highly like a book to encourage more reading!

DivaDiane Hi Jo, I‘m so sorry, I‘ve had the main items all set up for weeks, months even, but I‘m terribly scatter brained and thought I still had lots of time to send your Feed-a-Reader package. However, I am leaving today for 6 days in Italy. I promise I will send it as soon as I get home. Please forgive me! 6y
Itchyfeetreader @DivaDiane not a problem at all. Have a fabulous time in Italy and enjoy the gelato! 6y

This translation of Pravada's coverage of the 1937 Soviet election is just amazing. The way they tried to convey tension in reading ballots is, I honestly just have no words #amreading #nations #fail #sovietunion #economics #books #nonfiction
