A Quick History of Politics: From Pharaohs to Fair Votes (Quick Histories)
How did ancient people make decisions? How do the people in power stay in power? Why did Karl Marx have to go without trousers? A Quick History of Politics answers these questions and more, taking a ride through time from plutocrats to people power.
What do you think of when you hear ‘politics’? Is it grey-haired men in suits, shouting at each other in a weird room? Well, you’re partly right… but there’s also a whole lot of crazy stories and weird history in the political world. A Quick History of Politics takes a look at the silly side of government, big and small, throughout the ages, and also explains the important stuff, like suffrage, elections and getting your voice heard.
You will discover:- How the earliest tribes got by without a leader.
- How the first ever kings and queens ruled their people.
- When and how democracy was invented, and what it actually means.
- Why there are so many different ways of governing people, with no one right answer.
- What ‘gerrymandering’ means (no, we didn’t make that up).
- How empires, wars and revolutions have shaped the world we live in today.
- How elections work today.
- How countries work together (and sometimes fall out).
- How young activists can use their voice to call for change, before they’re even old enough to vote!
Plus, read about the women who used ju-jitsu to campaign for equal rights, the dictator who banned beards, and the rhino that became a council member in Brazil. Learn how the media can swing things in modern elections and get savvy to fake news. Test your knowhow with a quiz at the back of the book.
Packed with facts and jokes and perfect for introducing young readers to big concepts, the latest in the Quick Histories series is here to make politics funny again.Read more
