Synopsis "comehomeamerica.us"

This book was prepared for a meeting of people from across the political spectrum who oppose war and militarism. The book presents views from the right, left and radical center, views that reflect those of many Americans which are not represented in the political dialogue in Congress or the White House, or the mainstream media. Throughout American history there have been times when movements developed that were outside the limited political dialogue of the two major parties, such as the abolitionists, the Anti-Imperialist League, the Non-Partisan League, and aspects of the Old Right and the New Left. Sometimes those movements have broken through and created paradigm shifting moments. Some of the materials in this book describe the Populist Movement of the late 1800s to provide an example of the type of movement that can influence politics, even though it starts outside of the "acceptable" political spectrum. Our hope is that this meeting will be the first step toward building effective advocacy against war and militarism which pulls in the majority of Americans who recognize that war should truly be a last resort limited to the real defense of our Nation. Of all the enemies of true liberty, war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instrument for bringing the many under the domination of the few.-James Madison

Paul Buhle es un historiador y activista estadounidense nacido en 1944. Se ha destacado por su trabajo en la recuperación y difusión de la historia radical, así como por su innovación en el uso del cómic documental como medio para contar historias sociales y políticas. A lo largo de su carrera, ha sido editor, escritor y profesor, dedicando gran parte de su vida académica a estudiar movimientos sociales, cultura popular y luchas de izquierda en Estados Unidos y otras regiones.

Buhle fue un miembro activo del movimiento estudiantil en los años 60 y ha dirigido importantes proyectos de historia oral relacionados con la izquierda política americana. Además, ha coeditado enciclopedias y numerosas obras sobre el radicalismo, el activismo y el papel de la cultura en los movimientos sociales.

Su interés en los cómics documentales lo llevó a editar y colaborar en libros que combinan la narrativa gráfica con la investigación histórica, acercando así temas complejos a un público más amplio. A lo largo de su vida, ha sido profesor en diversas universidades y ha influido en generaciones de estudiantes y activistas.

Actualmente, sigue activo en el ámbito académico y continúa explorando nuevas formas de comunicar la historia social y política a través de medios accesibles y creativos.
