Coling Gee's Sacrifice and Levinger on Conflict Analysis
"The only way that has ever been discovered to have a lot of people cooperate together voluntarily is through the free market. And that's why it's so essential to preserving individual freedom.” -- Milton Friedman
"The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule." -- H. L. Mencken
I'm currently reading the Maze Runner Trilogy by James Dashner, i'm done with the 1st book (the maze runner). I'm now reading The Scorch Trials
Right now I'm reading Europe and the People Without History by Eric R. Wolf. The book is about the role that non-Europeans played in Colonialism and the spread of Capitalism, which is supposed to show that nations and societies are inter-connected and not bounded, separate entities.
I just finished the chapter on the fur trade and it was really interesting to learn how American Indians participated in the trade and how it influenced their own history. Usually all you hear about is how Native Americans served as guides for explorers and traded with mountain men which gives the impression that they didn't do much but in reality Native Americans played a pretty big role in the fur trade.
