Confronting Political Intimidation and Public Bullying is about how this came to be and enabled the rise of authoritarian rule, and how we can find our way through it.
At the core of this political history is a larger US public culture of intimidation and bullying in the workplace, media, and political arena that has been building for thirty-five years. The current harsh environment is a direct challenge to citizens and residents, especially those seeking to engage in civic activism and public life now and in the years to come.
The book's hope is to provide a kind of clarity that helps us get a handle on events and diminish the terror of the current moment by providing some shared protective mental armor.
It offers a unique guide to the strategies and dynamics of contemporary political intimidation and public bullying: the dangers they present, the snares and traps that envelope their targets, and the lessons to be learned.
In the end, it's about shedding light on the dark side of contemporary national life in order to see beyond it.
For this new edition I have thoroughly revised and updated the original text and added 70% more material in the way of new research and many current examples. The first five chapters lay the groundwork for the lessons offered in Chapters Six and Seven and the Conclusion.
Praise for Confronting Political Intimidation and Public Bullying
"Roddey Reid's latest volume shows that Trump mastered, but did not originate, the hyper-tough entrepreneurial bully and autocratic chief executive we see today. His book offers a refreshingly original and convincing study of public bullying as the link between budget austerity, hyper-wealth, and reactionary populism..... To begin to imagine a different kind of politics, to conceive of a more compassionate and knowledgeable society, and to put these goals in practice before it is too late, we need this book."
-Jody Berland, author of North of Empire: Essays on the Cultural Technologies of Space
"Deeply researched, conceptually sophisticated, and engagingly written, Roddey Reid's excellent book makes an indispensable contribution. If you want to understand Trump's return to power and the forces in the wider culture that made it possible in historical perspective--and if, indeed, you care about the future of the USA--you will find Reid's work of great value. His outlook is always realistic, and often soberly so, but never without hope."
-Carl Freedman, author of The Age of Nixon
"If you have found yourself wondering how the President morphed from the commander-in-chief to the bully-in-chief, not once but twice, this is the book for you. The short answer: it didn't happen all at once. Reid expertly shows how the Trump phenomenon is the culmination of a decades-long history of transformations.... rooted in workplace culture, the neoliberal spirit of capitalism, and the culture of insecurity in the age of limitless war...."
-Brian Massumi, author of Ontopower: War, Powers, and the State of Perception and The Personality of Power
"Donald Trump's second term as President is even worse than his first.... Roddey Reid succeeds in finding words that capture the terrifying and disorienting daily experience of what Trump is actually doing and how we got here. He offers some important protective intellectual armor to readers and proposes a series of suggestions for how to counter the assault upon everything that makes life worth living."
-Steven Shaviro, author of No Speed Limit: Three Essays on Accelerationism and Fluid Futures

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
