Brown Swan Publishers Launches with The Middle East Revolutions: a Framework for Analysis

Brown Swan Publishers is taking on the important political topics of the day with an emphasis on getting analysis out while events are still happening, which is why it has turned to kindle for its first release. The Middle East Revolutions, written by a political scientist, includes quotes and commentary as recent as March 16.

Washington, DC, March 20, 2011 --(PR.com)-- In Brown Swan Publisher's first release, Catherine Claxton-Dong, Ph.D., brings her research on past mass mobilizations of the working class to bear on the situation in the Middle East today.

According to Dr. Claxton-Dong, her data indicates "troubling signs that opportunities for democracy may be slipping away."

In her book, Claxton-Dong paints a picture of people during working class revolts who are inclined to favor traditional hierarchies (like monarchies), who are generally timid when it comes to force, and who have a preference for being led, rather than leading.

She makes a strong case that this is a unique historical moment that can normalize western relations with the Middle East forever, while cautioning against new dangers arising from a hands-off approach from western governments.

Brown Swan Publishers thinks it's important that analyses like these - too long for conventional articles - become available to political decision makers and activists in a timely manner.
