No time until this book is done! Looks like a fun one
Alison's work is awesome
Participants in encampments and some other protest activities aim to pressure authorities to change course, not simply to change the authorities' minds via persuasion. Should that matter? I offer preliminary and general thoughts about "coercive speech."
You're also the sort of guy that might like to know that the 'Mad Parliament' of 1268 is not a contemporary name and may result from a corruption in the manuscript of the London chronicle (its source), where someone wrote 'insane' over 'insigne', meaning famous!
Love that this brief respite from absolute partisanship is being presented as coalition government. In that light, I'd call this the Frightened Parliament. Frightened by MTG and DT!
Saw this and thought of your endorsement. Hoping I will find some fruitful ideas for my introduction...
