Paul Craig Roberts Bücher

»Mit ihrer Politik öffnen die USA dem Dritten Weltkrieg Tür und Tor!« Diese provokante Aussage stammt von Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, einem ehemaligen Staatssekretär für Wirtschaftspolitik im US-Finanzministerium unter Ronald Reagan. Roberts, 76 Jahre alt, warnt vor einem drohenden atomaren Konflikt zwischen den USA und Russland, wobei er die Verantwortung dafür klar Washington zuschreibt. Er sieht die europäischen Länder und viele andere als Vasallen der USA, deren Bestrebungen nach eigener Souveränität als Bedrohung des imperialen Machtanspruchs angesehen und bestraft werden. Europa wird eine Außenpolitik, die seinen eigenen Interessen dient, verwehrt. Während der Handel zwischen den USA und Russland trotz Sanktionen floriert, erleiden die Europäer massive Exporteinbußen. Roberts kritisiert die westlichen Medien, die seiner Meinung nach von wenigen Konzernen kontrolliert werden und einheitliche, stereotype Propaganda verbreiten. Anstatt Antiamerikanismus zu propagieren, sieht er die USA seit der Clinton-Ära als Verfechter einer imperialistischen Doktrin, die sich von ihren ursprünglichen Idealen entfernt hat. Er warnt vor der Entwicklung der USA zu einem Überwachungsstaat und beschreibt in seinen Essays, wie die Welt durch »wildgewordene Persönlichkeiten, Psychopathen und Soziopathen« in den USA in Gefahr eines nuklearen Armageddons gerät.

A sweeping new history of the city of Rome, told through its emperors and the monuments they built to leave their mark on one of the great capitals of the classical world.

In AD 79, the Bay of Naples was devastated by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, burying Pompeii, Herculaneum, and surrounding areas under pumice and ash. This eruption is one of history's most recognized volcanic events, leaving behind invaluable archaeological evidence of daily life in the Roman Empire. The book offers a vivid exploration of the lives of Pompeii and Herculaneum's inhabitants, using full-color photographs of over 200 excavated artifacts, from a soldier's sword to a shopkeeper's blue glass bottle. Paul Roberts, a British Museum curator, brings these individuals back to life, examining every room in a typical Roman home. Readers will discover bronze busts and mosaics in the entrance, frescoes and silver cups in the dining room, a carbonized cradle and a birth certificate in the bedroom, and cooking pots in the kitchen. The book also discusses various shops, from bakeries to taverns, and reconstructs the eruption using archaeological and geological evidence, alongside Pliny the Younger's eyewitness account. With stunning photographs of celebrated artifacts and recent finds, this work captures both the public and private lives of real Roman families.
