James Ferrabee and Michael Harrison reveal that even as decades have passed and economic trends have soared and crashed, MacDougall, MacDougall & MacTier has been able to rely in good times and bad on the tradition and continued presence of the MacDougall family as well as the firm's core values: integrity, independence, and trust. Not only rich in detail about the history of the company, its founding family, and Canadian business, Staying Connected also offers a lively portrait of the city of Montreal from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twenty-first. Accessible and amusing, this is an inside account of a continual success story.
James Wilt exposes the links between the global alcohol industry and capitalism. In Drinking Up the Revolution, James Wilt shows us why alcohol policy should be at the heart of any socialist movement. Many people are drinking more now than ever before, as already massive multinationals are consolidating and new online delivery services are booming in an increasingly deregulated market. At the same time, public health experts are sounding the alarm about the catastrophic health and social impacts of rising alcohol use, with over three million people dying ever year due to alcohol-related harms. Exposing the links between the alcohol industry and capitalism, colonialism and environmental destruction, Wilt demonstrates the failure of both prohibition and deregulation, and instead focuses on those who profit from alcohol’s sale and downplay its impacts: producers, retailers, and governments. Rejecting both the alcohol industry’s moralizing against individual “problem drinkers” and the sober politics of “straight-edge” and wellness lifestyle trends, Drinking Up the Revolution is not another call for prohibition or more governmental control, but is instead a cry to take back alcohol for the people, and make it safe and enjoyable for all those who want to use it.
